The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm: Chapter 1042 The lazy and bad sister-in-law of a lucky girl from the farm 37
Chapter 1042 The Lazy and Bad Sister-in-Law of the Blessed Nongmen (37)
"Is he a Tongsheng?"
"Well, he's very smart." Sanya pursed her lips, "If something happened to his father, he might have been admitted as a scholar long ago."
Xu Yin rubbed her chin and pondered: "Your brother-in-law and I are looking for a master to teach us how to read, how about he?"
"Huh?" Sanya was dumbfounded, "You and brother-in-law..."
She wanted to say, still studying at this age? Isn't this a waste of money?
Xu Yin gave her a hygienic eye angrily: "Aren't you afraid of learning late? Not only me and your brother-in-law, but you and the third brother have to learn too."
"..."
Cui Mengjin really didn't expect it—the lady went back to her mother's house to find a teacher for her family.
His first reaction was exactly the same as that of Sanya: "I'm at this age, and I still study? Isn't it appropriate?"
"What's wrong? I didn't have to read when I was a child because my family was poor and didn't have the conditions. Now that I have the conditions, why not ask a master to teach us how to read and write? If you want to joke, let others go. Are we right? It’s not that we have to go to the examinations of scholars, candidates, and champions after studying, we study for the sake of literacy and reason, so as not to go out and be smeared, and sign a document and be sold without knowing.”
Xu Yin salutes first and then fights, and puts her hands on her hips after speaking: "I'm just asking if you want to learn?"
"Learn!" Cui Mengjin looked at her and smiled, "Every woman is willing to learn, there is no reason to be lazy as a husband."
"That's more or less."
Lin Xiyun was somewhat surprised when he received this job: "Sanya's second sister asked me to teach her and her husband a literacy class?"
"Isn't that right, and not only my second sister and second brother-in-law, but also Sanya and I have to learn." Xu Sanqiu looked distressed, "I'm not a student at all, but I don't dare not listen to what my second sister says..."
If you don't listen, you will most likely be beaten violently.
I have never seen the second brother-in-law so obedient.
It's over, the second brother-in-law must be scared of being beaten by the second sister.
Lin Xiyun opened his mouth, really not knowing what to say.
But teaching people how to read and write was never easier for him.
What's more, the Cui family said that he doesn't need to go every day, once every three days, half a day each time, the salary is calculated on the basis of the number of students, and a student is five cents per class.
There are currently four students, and the last class is twenty essays.
It is only about 30 Wen for a day's work in the town, which is still hard work like bending over sacks and rice sacks, and less than 30 Wen for leisurely work. And he spent half a day teaching people to read and write and got 20 words?
Lin Xiyun carries the financial burden of the family on his shoulders, so he can't refuse and doesn't want to refuse such an attractive job.
What's more, Xu Sanqiu also added:
"Oh, by the way, my second sister said that your mother's confinement disease can be cured. When she accompanied my second brother-in-law to the county town to treat her leg, she saw that old imperial doctor treating a woman's confinement disease. Just a few pastes of decoction will be enough. The second sister said that she will go to the county sometime and bring back some pastes of decoction for your mother. The cost of the medicine will be deducted from your salary."
"Are you serious?"
Lin Xi stood up like a cloud, sweeping away his usual sophistication.
"Of course, my second sister has never said big things."
It’s just that sometimes you will beat people if you don’t like it.
"Oh, by the way, my second sister also said that when you go to her house for class, you can bring your brother with you. Teaching four is teaching, and teaching five and six is also teaching."
In fact, the final literacy class, not counting Lin Xiyun's younger brother, had ten students present.
Xu Yin also called Cui Jikang.
For a ten-year-old child, the modern age is still the rising sun and the flowers of the motherland. Don’t think about things that are so far away from the imperial examination. It is always good to know a few more characters.
At first her mother-in-law was muttering about her reluctance to pay for the tuition, so Xu Yin said, "Mother, think about the second brother. Is it because he saved an old accountant who taught him how to count?" ?If the second brother didn’t meet the old accountant and didn’t learn abacus, can he be the accountant of the rice store? Can he have a stable income? If Wen Xuanzi finds a stable job, it will not be too late to pay me back."
What?
Now pay for the third child, let the third child pay back in the future? Wouldn't that be a loan? Do I have to pay interest when I pay it back?
Cui quickly refused: "You don't need to come out, my son can read and write, how can I not let him learn?"
Xu Yinpi said: "Then Meng Jin is also your son, should you also pay for his tuition?"
"..."
Master Cui became furious with embarrassment, and really wanted to use a broom to slap this hob meat daughter-in-law away.
Xu Yin winked at Cui Jikang, laughed and went home.
On the way, I met Goudanniang, and Goudanniang learned that she had invited a boy student from Meihua Village to teach her and Meng Jin to read at home. Her third brother, third sister, and old Cui's brother-in-law were also attending the class together, so she made a decision immediately. : "Add my dog! Let him learn a few more words from you!"
After dealing with each other this year, the woman Goudanniang admires the most is Meng Jin's wife. She thinks that everything she does makes sense, and it's impossible to follow her. Even excluding this point, now that the grain yield per mu has increased, the money is more abundant than in previous years, and Goudan is the youngest child in the family, so it would be good to know a few more words.
Goudanniang led the way, and village women who used to come and go frequently, such as Tiewaniang and Huziniang, also sent their children to Xu Yin's house.
Xu Yin: "..."
Thanks to the construction of three large rooms, the South Hall is not too crowded to temporarily fill the classrooms.
After that, every three days, the sound of Lang Lang's reading could be heard from Xu Yin's house.
Xu Yin not only knows these traditional characters, but also writes them well, but what should I do? Yuan was illiterate, so even if she acted, she had to act more seriously.
Fortunately, there is a true scholar by my side—Cui Mengjin, who has a super strong memory and remembers it after reading it, and is also good at literacy and hyphenation. Lin Xiyun only taught it once, and he memorized it. Others are still learning them , They do not know the blank state of words.
Xu Yin discussed with Lin Xiyun during the recess: "Sir, Ah Jin and I will not participate in the next class. We have already learned all the words taught today. If you don't believe me, sir, you can test us."
Lin Xiyun took a quiz on them, and the couple really memorized the few words taught in the class.
Can't help feeling overwhelmed: "If brother Meng is a few years younger, he will definitely be able to do something."
Xu Sanqiu came over and answered: "Second sister, didn't you say that it's never too late to study? Then let the second brother-in-law study and take the imperial examination!"
Xu Yin gave him a white look: "Did you recognize all the characters taught in class?"
"…"No.
"Then why join in the fun?"
"..."
It’s not material for reading, have you even been deprived of the right to chat? Beep!
Xu Yin turned to the man and asked, "Do you want to study and take the imperial examination?"
Cui Mengjin shook her head: "I don't want to."
"Why?"
"That way the lady will be very hard."
He has seen scholars in villages and towns. A family provides for a scholar, and he has to tighten his belt. He can't help with family work and can't take care of family affairs. He just asks the family for money to pay for repairs. What's the difference between this and blood-sucking leeches?
Furthermore, he couldn't do without her, and wanted to sleep with her day and night and grow old together.
