Cheng Wanwan cut off the power.
She walked in and took a close look at Zhao Fugui's condition. She must have been frightened like this and there was no fear for her life.
No matter how scared she is, no one in the village will be so short-sighted and dare to trouble her again.
She said softly: "Da Shan's wife's child has been saved. Dad Dashan doesn't want to embarrass Zhao Fugui anymore. You can take him back."
Aunt Fugui lowered her head and said, "Ms. Dashan, I'm so sorry."
She was a woman who was used to doing rough work. She pulled Zhao Fugui up hard and dragged him out from under the big locust tree.
A group of people came to watch the fun.
"What a hell. The big locust tree was inaccessible before, but now it's okay."
"The child of Dashan's wife has been saved, and Zhao Youjin has calmed down, so naturally he will let Zhao Fugui go."
"I went over and gave it a try, but it always felt too weird."
Someone is going this way.
Cheng Wanwan turned on the power supply quietly.
She was afraid that the villagers would be too curious, so she dug three feet into the ground to dig out the wires she had buried. She had other uses for the wires, but she had to wait until midnight to retrieve them.
She said softly: "Everyone had better be careful here. Father Dashan hasn't left yet."
She turned and walked away.
The crowd didn't dare to get any closer, but there was someone who didn't believe in evil. It was Mr. Zhang.
He walked out casually, slowly, step by step, and then felt a numbness coming from him, and he quickly stepped back to avoid it.
Damn it, only Zhao Cheng can get in, but no one else can. Could it be that Zhao Youjin really showed up?
Zhang Laigui originally had some thoughts that he shouldn't have, but he could only suppress them now.
When Cheng Wanwan returned home, the oxcart was already filled with wooden barrels. There were seventeen wooden barrels in total. The oxcart could not fit at all. Two wooden barrels were needed to be stacked on top of each other and fixed with straw ropes to prevent them from overturning. The barrels were placed neatly After that, there was no place for anyone to sit in the car.
Cheng Wanwan, Zhao Ergou, and Cheng Zhao could only walk and follow the ox cart to the town.
Baiyun Town and Fenghuang Town are not far away, but they are in two directions from Hekou Town, Ping'an Town. Zhao Da said that he should go to Baiyun Town first, and then transfer to Hekou Town, which would save him a lot of distance.
Some restaurants in Fenghuang Town, Baiyun Town, were negotiated with Li Zheng's help. Cheng Wanwan came here this time and re-determined the daily supply volume and purchase price. Only then did he pay and deliver the goods. Everything was very smooth. smoothly.
There were a lot of stores supplying goods, so she asked Zhao Ergou to remember them all carefully. She would not come again to deliver goods in the future, and let Ergou take the lead.
Next is to Hekou Town.
After the ice powder at Jixiang Restaurant and Zuixian Restaurant was delivered, Cheng Wanwan took her two children to Dehe Hall.
Before he entered, people were surrounding Cheng Zhao and pointing.
"Look, it's him."
"How can he still have the nerve to come to the gate of Nanfu Academy?"
"He has the nerve to cheat, so of course he has the nerve to come here. It is really an insult to the character of a scholar."
"..."
Cheng Zhao tightened his lips, and the lip line tightened into a straight line.
Cheng Wanwan understood the general idea. She had guessed before that Cheng Zhao definitely didn't stop studying because of lack of money. It seemed that there was indeed something hidden.
She observed her eldest nephew last night, and no matter how she looked at it, he didn't seem like someone who would cheat.
But now, it's not the time to ask that.
She pretended not to hear the commotion and pulled Cheng Zhao inside.
Cheng Zhao tried his best to ignore the gossip and walked to the counter, but he hadn't said anything yet.
The shopkeeper of Dehetang sighed: "Master Cheng, you have also seen that the people in the academy cannot tolerate you, and it is difficult for your copied books to be sold in my shop. Let's forget about the copied books." …”
Cheng Zhao was stunned.
He has been cooperating with this shopkeeper for three or four years, and the cooperation has been very pleasant. He has always regarded this place as his last resort.
But now, is there no way out?
"Copying books is a trivial matter, but the college examination is a big deal." The shopkeeper of Dehetang whispered, "I know that you are of noble character and cannot cheat. Since you haven't done it, you must find a way to clarify yourself until the time comes. If there is no one to guarantee you next year, you won’t even be qualified for the college examination.”
Cheng Zhao clenched his fists.
He didn't understand this truth, but as a poor student from a peasant family, how could he compete with those playboys?
He doesn't have the temperament to beg for help. Since the shopkeeper rejected him, he can't stay any longer.
He turned around and walked out of Dehe Hall, and Cheng Wanwan followed him: "Zhao'er, didn't you agree to copy the book and pay back the money? Have you made an agreement with the shopkeeper how often I will come to settle the account in the future?"
Cheng Zhao paused: "Second aunt, I may need to find other jobs..."
Cheng Wanwan patted him on the shoulder: "Nothing, just take your time and look for it later."
She saw someone selling wooden barrels and basins on the street, and bought ten of each. Cheng Zhao came over to help carry them, loading five at a time. He suddenly lost his grip and the wooden basins fell to the ground with a clang. Fortunately, these wooden basins fell to the ground with a clang. The quality of the basin is good, not broken.
Zhao Ergou was a little angry: "Cousin, please stand aside and stay out of the way."
My eldest cousin is very good at studying, but his strength is too small. If he doesn't study in the future, he won't be able to support himself at all.
Cheng Wanwan glared at Zhao Ergou. This kid was actually qualified to dislike others. Be careful that Cheng Zhao would dislike him for being stupid in the future.
She spoke slowly: "You are very talented and can teach others well. I wonder if you are interested in becoming a teacher?"
Cheng Zhao smiled bitterly: "The teachers in Nanfu Academy must at least be scholars. The academies in other towns are basically run by old scholars themselves. Old scholars can support the school alone and will not recruit teachers from outside. I..."
He lowered his head, and he rarely lowered his head. This time, he was really helpless.
He was unwilling to go back to farm and live his whole life with his face facing the loess and his back turned to the sky. How could he afford to study hard for more than ten years in a cold window.
"I mean, are you willing to come to the second aunt's house and teach your cousins to read and write?" Cheng Wanwan said with a smile, "Yesterday you said that you owed me fifty taels of silver, and I will give it to you a month. The reward is five taels of silver. If you calculate it this way, you can pay it off in about a year, how about it?"
She asked and found out that a gentleman from Nanfu Academy was paid six and a half taels of silver a month, but since he was a scholar and Cheng Zhao was a child, it was naturally a little lower.
The four children in her family were sent to the academy for at least four taels of silver a month. With so many people in a class, they might not be able to learn much.
Five taels of silver to hire a tutor is not a good deal at all.
And originally, these debts were not in the account. The original owner could not calculate it clearly, and she could not calculate it even more clearly. However, Cheng Zhao had an account in his mind and clearly remembered these debts that could have been erased. With non-existent money, let Cheng Zhao teach his children to read. In one year, he should be able to learn the three enlightenment books, and then he can send Si Dan to the town school to study.
Cheng Zhao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Over the years, half of the Shu Xiu he has studied with were from his second aunt. He has learned so much knowledge, and he should have taught it to his four cousins. In fact, he shouldn't have Shu Xiu, but if he didn't accept the money, he would You may never be able to repay these debts in your lifetime.
He was silent and didn't say anything.
Zhao Ergou sighed silently. He didn't like his eldest cousin at all, but his mother asked his eldest cousin to teach them how to read and write. Suddenly, he didn't want to learn.
When he was melancholy, a voice sounded behind his ear.
"Isn't this Ergou?"
