"Maomao, what are you doing?" Xiao Ming shouted, his trouser legs were all wet, this guy was getting more and more naughty.
"Woo!" Maomao raised his head and looked at his owner with his big copper bell-like eyes. At this time, he had just come back from taking a bath in the river, with a two-finger-long fish in his mouth. It was wet, and the water flowed down its hair, causing water stains along the way.
After being reprimanded by its owner, it was very innocent. It looked at Xiao Ming with its big eyes, and did not forget to rub Xiao Ming's feet. It circled around Xiao Ming in a flattering manner and spit the fish in its mouth on Xiao Ming. At his feet, it looked like he was trying to bribe someone to please him.
Xiao Ming~~
Her trouser legs and embroidered shoes were all wet.
Mother Yi and Aunt Ming, who were moving things, looked at it and laughed.
Bai Xiaoyu came in with a towel and watched Maomao report to Xiao Ming: "Auntie, Maomao is so annoying. I just kindly wiped it, but it threw water all over it." She watched Maomao coming out of the river. When she came back, her body was covered with water stains, so she kindly brought a towel to wipe it with her, but it was not good, her body swayed, water droplets splashed, and her clothes were also wet, but the instigator ran away.
"You little naughty kid, don't do this again." Xiao Ming said helplessly. Maomao loved to be clean and would swim in the river twice every day, so Xiao Ming didn't care much about it.
Xiao Ming only whined twice in reply.
"Lie down and don't move. Let Xiao Yu'er wipe you." Xiao Ming ordered again. Maomao actually lay at Xiao Ming's feet and stopped moving. She even turned to Bai Xiao Yu and whined twice, signaling her to hurry up. .
Seeing that Maomao was really not moving, Bai Xiaoyu was very surprised. While wiping the water stains on it, he said, "Auntie, you are so awesome. It doesn't even listen to me even if I can't tell you."
Aunt Ming looked at it when she came out and said with a smile: "Maomao likes girls the most, followed by Master Han, Master Yu, and Madam. The others are all indifferent." He is indifferent, She feeds it every day but it doesn't want to eat it.
Maomao has grown so big that he seems to be very docile on weekdays, neither biting nor barking. But on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he actually chased and killed a wolf that escaped.
Of course it obeyed, otherwise the benefits would be gone.
"Haha, it's used to being naughty. If it disobeys in the future, just leave it alone." Xiao Ming said, Bai Xiaoyu is young, and she is really afraid that Maomao will scare her.
Now Bai Xiaoyu and the others, except for Ming Sheng, who was working with Yi Feng, she only asked Yi's mother to arrange some light jobs, help the family pick vegetables and clean the yard, and send them to the school when the college is completed.
Except for Ming Sheng, who chose to do business, two of the other three boys chose to study, and another chose to practice martial arts. The two girls, Mei Hua and He Hua, learned some needlework skills from Yi's mother. Only Bai Xiaoyu actually wanted to learn from Xiao Ming. The doctor surprised Xiao Ming.
However, Xiao Ming readily agreed, because Bai Xiaoyu was smart and had small hands and was more suitable for learning medicine than Yunling. Just like Yunling had studied medicine, she was first asked to read and read and take care of herbs in the medicine garden.
When the seven people He Yun left behind came to her Xiao family, they all adapted very well. Both Xiao Ming and Song's mother Yi were very kind to them. They never treated them harshly, shared meals and accommodation with them, and made them new clothes. Shoes and monthly money, they no longer had the uneasiness and fear they felt when they first arrived, and gradually settled down, treating the Xiao family as their own home.
The changes in their material life have made their health gradually improve, and their appearance has also grown. They have completely lost the appearance of the little beggars before. Now they are scrambling to work every day. In addition to the work at home, they also I will go to the construction site and do whatever I can.
Bai Xiaoyu didn't even give Maomao a few wipes before Xiao Ming said, "Xiao Yu'er, go back and change your clothes quickly. Be careful not to catch a cold. We'll go to the construction site to have a look later."
"Yes." Bai Xiaoyu nodded and ran to change clothes happily.
Xiao Ming also went back to the house to change her clothes. When she saw her master returning to the house, Maomao immediately stood up and ran away with joyful hooves.
When I arrived at the construction site, I found that the construction site was very lively. Men from the entire village came to help build the school under the leadership of the village chief. There were also many people from the village brought by Mr. Li. A group of people were working enthusiastically in the field, carrying rocks and digging. Mud comes and goes without knowing where it is.
The village chief, Xia Zhongquan, Uncle Ming and Old Man Li were looking at Xiao Ming's drawings and discussing. When they saw Xiao Ming coming over, they all said hello. Old Man Li said, "Miss Xiao is here. This construction site is busy, so be careful where you step."
"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Liu, Uncle Xia, and Uncle Li for your trouble." Xiao Ming thanked them one by one.
"Miss Xiao, you're welcome." Old Man Li said politely. He had put great effort into building the school of the Xiao family and wanted to satisfy Xiao Ming. Of course, he also had selfish motives for doing so. Their Lijia Village is close to Liujia Village. It will be easier for the children to study in the future. He heard that Xiao Ming did not plan to charge the people of Liujia Village for repairs. He wondered if he could ask Xiao Ming to also waive the repairs for their Lijia Village. This was a huge sum. Not only him, but also the other people in Lijia Village who came to help had this idea.
Nowadays, every household has few children, and only a few households in a village can afford to provide a scholar. It takes all the efforts of the whole family to provide a scholar. Of course, everyone will be happy if the scholar becomes successful, but not if he does not. , you will fall deeper and deeper into the trap, unable to extricate yourself.
It is a great thing that the Xiao family can open a school to allow children to study for free. Everyone hopes that their children can go to school. Even if they cannot read a few words, they can learn martial arts to support their families.
"Sister Ming said this out of context. Building a school is a good thing." Village chief Liu Jisheng nodded.
Xia Zhongquan didn't speak, just nodded.
Several people sat down at a simple table. Old Man Li didn't quite understand some parts of the drawings given by Xiao Ming, so he asked Xiao Ming for advice: "Miss Xiao, you see there is something wrong here."
"There is nothing wrong with this. This is the residence prepared for the gentlemen. It has bedrooms, halls, study rooms, separate kitchens and latrines." Xiao Ming said, this is the residence prepared for the gentlemen. She designed it after the suite in her previous life, with three bedrooms. Two living rooms, one kitchen and one bathroom design.
"A kitchen is built here, and water is brought down from a well in the mountain and introduced into a pool for easy access. A washing and bathing area must be built in each dormitory area, and trenches must be dug and covered with stone slabs. The sewage will flow into the sewage pool through the trenches. inside·····"
"This is the martial arts training ground, this is the library, and the dormitory area..."
Xiao Ming pointed out the plans on the drawing one by one for everyone to see. In her plan, people from the village or children from neighboring villages would go home to stay. In the future, there should not be many students staying in the school, or only students from nearby villages would be admitted. She is a child from a village, and there are a few people in her family. According to her opinion, there are not too many students, so the school is not big. It is only divided into two parts: studying and martial arts, and a backyard is left as a The woman's residence requires more land than she originally planned.
Old Man Li has been building a house all his life, and this is the first time he has seen the drawings given by Xiao Ming, such as ditch drainage and so on. He has never heard of it before. In order to satisfy Xiao Ming, he must ask Xiao Ming for more advice.
