Even if Chu Qing found a job, food and accommodation would be included.

The school in the village is jointly run by three nearby villages and is considered a private school.

Because Wukeshu Village has the longest history, is the largest, and is located in the middle of the three villages, the school was set up in Wukeshu Village.

Mr. Xie was originally a professor at Linfu School, but he was an upright person and could not stand the bad habits in the school. He was suppressed for a long time and simply resigned.

Mr. Xie himself was a civil servant, and he was very knowledgeable and well-versed in medicine. He was able to deal with minor illnesses and calamities. However, his two sons were not candidates for the imperial examination, so they both went to work in farming because they could not succeed in their studies.

Mr. Xie came to Wushu Village to teach, and he was accompanied by his old wife. However, the old wife’s legs and feet were not very good. She probably had rheumatoid arthritis or something like that. She had constant leg pain and could not do the work in the school.

In the past, women from various families in the village would take turns to cook, but when they got busy they often couldn't make it on time.

Students pay 6 kilograms of rice or noodles plus 30 Wen per month, which is included in tuition and food expenses.

Chu Qing's salary is 120 Wen per month, plus 8 kilograms of rice. If lunch is included, 6 kilograms of rice will be deducted.

The work consists of cleaning the school and cooking a meal at noon.

The dormitory is in the utility room at the end of the school. The school is closed every ten days, that is, on the tenth, twentieth and end of each month.

The sad thing is that it is the beginning of April now, and in May there will be "field holiday", which is a busy farming holiday and a one-month holiday. There is no salary this month. Who cares, at least I won't starve to death this month.

Chu Qing follows Mr.

If there was a pot of water, I found a bowl and poured water for Xiaobao to drink. Then I went to clean up the utility room.

The utility room is not small, but the placement is not reasonable, which is a waste of space. Even the windows are blocked, making it very dark.

After Chu Qing made full use of the space at the top, the whole room immediately became much larger, and the windows were exposed, making it much brighter.

While Chu Qing was cleaning up, she was worried about what to do for dinner. As soon as she finished cleaning up, the village chief's wife came and brought 5 pancakes and a basket of vegetables from her own garden.

This warm-hearted woman also asked before leaving: "After eating, go to my place to get some food."

Chu Qing was very touched. This was the first person to take the initiative to care about her after traveling through time.

There is actually rice and noodles in the kitchen, but it’s too slow to make freshly made rice. The village chief’s wife brought ready-made pancakes, so you only need to stir-fry the vegetables and it’s ready to eat.

There was only half a can of meat oil in the oil jar. Chu Qing didn't dare to use more, so he only used a small amount. He put the washed vegetables in the pot, stirred them twice and sprinkled some salt on them and it was done.

The pancakes are still warm and can be eaten directly. After the vegetables were put out, they were poured into the water without washing the pot, and the leaves were thrown in. I picked a few leaves of each vegetable, added some salt, and made a soup.

It pours quickly.

The only slow part is studying how to use the xiahuozhezi.

There was no one in the kitchen, so Chu Qing led Xiaobao to hold the bench and gathered around the pot to eat the couple's second meal.

Chu Qing picked up the spoon, scooped out a spoonful of soup, and wanted to blow it to cool it down and feed it to Xiaobao. He had sweated a lot today and had to add some salt. But he saw Xiaobao blowing on it with a spoon.

The child was young and could not hold the spoon steadily. There was only half a spoonful of soup in it, but Xiaobao blew it seriously, blowing it huffing and puffing, and then drank it slurpingly, one spoonful after another.

Chu Qing's eyes started to heat up. Meng knew that until now, he had to pour out half a bowl of soup in advance and wait for it to dry before he could drink it until it became warm.

Xiaobao put down the spoon and suddenly touched his arms. Chu Qing also remembered that Xiaobao still had eggs. After so long, they were all smelly, right?

"It doesn't stink, does it?" Chu Qing asked worriedly.

Xiaobao put the egg up to his nose and smelled it, and even put it under Chu Qing's nose. There was no smell.

"Peel it open and take a look. Is it smelly inside?" Chu Qing was worried. She stretched out her hand to take it and peel it off.

But he saw Xiaobao knocking the eggs on the stove by himself, and then rolling the eggs around on the stove. He didn't start peeling the eggs until the egg shells were evenly broken. The child under three years old actually moved his fingers up and down.

It flew around and was peeled off quickly.

Chu Qing is confused again. Meng Dong didn't start peeling egg shells until he was 6 years old, and he is still very slow at it now. Could it be that Xiao Bao often eats eggs, so practice makes perfect?

"Xiaobao often eats eggs?" Chu Qing couldn't help but ask.

Xiaobao shook his head.

Also, when Chu Qing thought about it, she was a cook. She rarely boiled eggs in restaurants, but fried them. The proprietress's cook didn't boil eggs very much, but steamed egg custards more often.

"Xiaobao is so awesome! You are the king of egg shells!" Chu Qing gestured to Xiaobao with his thumb.

Xiaobao smelled the egg and handed it to Chu Qing. Chu Qing took it and smelled it, saying it was fine and not spoiled. Then he handed it back to Xiaobao.

Xiaobao didn't answer, shook his head, pointed at Chu Qing, and asked Chu Qing to eat. Chu Qing thought about it, and it seemed that there was an egg on Xiaobao's other side near his armpit.

"Xiaobao, don't you still have an egg? Take it out and eat it. If you don't eat it, it will go bad."

Xiaobao shook his head, reached into his arms and took out another... silver ingot!

"Oh my god!" Chu Qing exclaimed: "Silver ingot?" Xiaobao nodded.

Chu Qing looked at the silver ingot. It was about the same size as an egg. The bottom was in the shape of an egg and the front was concave. It was not silvery and shiny, but rather black and oxidized. There were many small holes on the bottom of the silver ingot.

, just like a volcanic stone for rubbing your feet.

It's really different from the silver ingots in the TV series.

After looking at it carefully, I remembered that in yesterday's dream, the uncle and sister-in-law seemed to get a silver ingot similar to this by selling themselves.

Weighing the weight, "Five taels?" Xiaobao nodded.

"You had planned to run away from home! You took the eggs and the money with you!"

Xiaobao continued to drink soup and nibble on pancakes.

Chu Qing returned the silver ingot to Xiaobao, "Keep it yourself. Eat the eggs, don't waste them."

Xiaobao bit the egg but did not take the silver ingot. Chu Qing thought that Xiaobao didn't see it, so he handed the silver ingot to his bowl. Xiaobao picked it up and put it in Chu Qing's hand.

Chu Qing was not polite: "Yes, you are too young to store it. Come with me!" Before finishing the meal, Chu Qing took Xiaobao back to the utility room. Under a damaged bookshelf, there was something in the corner.

There is half a loose brick. I found it when I was cleaning just now. Take out the half brick and put the silver ingot in it. Then put the brick back.

"Hide here first, remember. We will move to a better place later." Xiaobao pointed at Chu Qing, and then pointed at the broken table that was used as a bed. It seems that he wanted Chu Qing to buy a bedding?

"I'll think of a solution for the bedding. I'll deal with it tonight first. We won't take off our clothes to sleep. I'll hold you in my arms and make sure you don't get cold. The money is yours and I'll keep it for you." Xiaobao shook his head and nodded again.

.

"Okay, let's continue eating."

Early the next morning, Chu Qing woke up when it was still bright and clear. The rooster had not had time to crow. One of them went to bed early last night, and the other was cold because there was no bedding. I hugged the little baby to sleep, and the fire warmed my chest, but

But his back and feet were still cold. Xiaobao also got up and sat up in a daze, not moving, just looking at Chu Qing.

"Xiaobao, life has begun for us two!" Chu Qing announced. "Is it cold?" Xiaobao shook his head. "If it's not cold, come out. I'll clean the table in the school and boil water for Mr. Xie. Just go around.

Walk in circles in the yard and walk quickly until you sweat." Xiaobao didn't understand why, but he did as he was told.

Chu Qing went into the classroom to clean up, and Xiaobao was still walking in circles when he came out. Chu Qing went to the kitchen to boil water again, and the roosters in the village were crowing, and occasionally there were dogs barking in response.

It was no longer cold in Chu Qing now. Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, I put the leftover pancakes from last night into the pot to bake, and picked some vegetable leaves to make soup. I had a quick breakfast, as long as I was not hungry. Xiaobao also

Walking in circles.
