Chapter 17: Hardship
And these greedy people, the ordinary seeds that were originally planted in their own fields have begun to take root and sprout, but they are jealous of her seeds, and they forcibly pull out all the seeds that have sprouted in their own fields.
That's a good show.
When she pushed open the door and entered the house, Jian Xiaoyi remembered her words and stayed at home obediently alone.
The moment she entered the door, to Jian Yun's surprise, the whole house was different from when she left.
"What is this?" Jian Yun asked unexpectedly, looking at the clean floor and the polished table.
Jian Xiaoyi was still holding a rag in his hand, and he was squatting next to the basin, rubbing the rag seriously.
When he saw Jian Yun coming back, Jian Xiaoyi hurriedly wrung out the rag in his hand, put it next to the basin, ran to the stove quickly, picked up a cup of warm water and handed it to Jian Yun.
"Mother's hard work, come and drink some water!" Jian Xiaoyi raised a small face, looked at her and said distressedly.
When he saw this scene, Jian Yun's heart was warm, and the last bit of unhappiness caused by those unreasonable people dissipated today.
Looking at the little radish head standing in front of him, the child has grown so big, and he should go to school.
However, according to the memory of the original owner, there was only one private school teacher in this village, and this private school teacher could only teach the Four Books and the Five Classics.
Jian Yun's heart was not willing to let Jian Xiaoyi learn the Four Books and Five Classics, although these things would also teach some truths, but they were not very practical, and the teachings were also a bit pedantic.
"Xiao Yi, can we learn to read and write at home?" Jian Yun held Jian Xiaoyi's arms with both hands and asked seriously.
Few children like to read, carefree age, playing barefoot on the ridge every day, it was really a happy day, Jian Yun was very worried that Jian Xiaoyi didn't like to read.
And Jian Xiaoyi happily agreed.
"If I can study, I must go to the imperial examination, and when the time comes, I won't have to work so hard to become a big official, and no one will dare to bully my mother!" Hearing that he was going to study, Jian Xiaoyi's eyes were filled with excitement.
But in an instant, the glint in Jian Xiaoyi's eyes turned into worry: "But mother, if you want to go to Mr. Private School to study, we need a lot of money, and the family doesn't have so much money for Xiaoyi to study." ”
When hearing this kid say this, Jian Yun's heart was very distressed, at this time, when he went to study at Mr. Private School's house, they would not ask for money, but would ask for something, a load of rice, a piece of bacon or eggs, and vegetables could be used as tuition.
Jian Yun can still afford this little thing.
However, I just don't know if there is a gap between the words of their time and the words that Jian Yun knows, and how big the gap is, Jian Yun thought about it and decided to go to the town to buy two books and come back to have a look, if he could, he would teach him to read and write at home first.
"It's good if Xiao Yi is willing in his heart, these things are what his mother should consider, not what Xiao Yi should consider. Jian Yun said.
Seeing this, Jian Xiaoyi nodded as if he didn't understand, Jian Yun looked at the sky outside, and it was not too early to rest.
In the past few days, while there is still time, Jian Yun collected all the vegetables in the field and sent a lot to Zhang's family, and Zhang's eyebrows and eyes were bent into a crescent moon with joy.
"I still have a child at home, and I finally have these harvests, so it's not good to stay at home for Xiaoyi to eat, but I sent them to me. Zhang looked at the load full of grain and vegetables.
In the countryside this year, if the family has the most food, then the family is the most enviable.
Jian Yun scratched her head embarrassedly and said, "Auntie doesn't think I'm stupid, teach me embroidery for so long, these things are considered as my thank you." ”
Seeing this, the Zhang family was overjoyed and didn't say anything polite to Jian Yun, so he hurriedly put away the load of grain and vegetables, took Jian Yun's hand and asked questions.
Knowing that Jian Yun has been doing well recently, Zhang's family was a little relieved: "If you have embroidered embroidery next time, you will give it to me, if you are at ease, I will take it to the town for you to sell by the way." ”
Because Jian Yun only started to learn embroidery, Zhang felt that she might not be familiar with selling embroidery, but she was also going to the town to sell embroidery, so it was better to take Jian Yun's to sell it by the way.
"Thank you, Auntie. "Jian Yun originally embroidered not much embroidery, and if he took it to the town to sell it, he couldn't sell it for too much money, so it was better to give it to Zhang, it was naturally the best to sell it, and if it couldn't be sold, it was also given to Zhang as a thank you for returning the favor.
In the past few days, Jian Yun has cleaned up the field, and the system has found a few ways to turn over the ground well, ready for the next planting.
In the fields of those families, because the seeds have not been treated, they have not germinated for a long time, and the people who were originally full of joy and waiting for a good harvest are now more and more anxious.
After waiting for about ten days, the time for ordinary seeds to germinate had passed, but the seeds in their field had not germinated for a long time, and those people finally couldn't help it and ran to Jian Yun's house again.
"What kind of seed was given to us last time, it's been ten days, and usually the seed will germinate in three to seven days, but it doesn't move at all!"
You must know that when they returned home, the bag of seeds was not only planted at home, but also distributed to the neighbors around them.
When the time comes, if something goes wrong, the neighbors will come over, and their family can't afford it.
Jian Yun knew that they would come over, a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he gave Jian Xiaoyi a look.
Jian Xiaoyi understood, ran fast like a rabbit, and disappeared as soon as he slipped away.
"What seeds did I give you, what are you talking about?, why can't I understand?" Jian Yun spread out his hand and looked at the person opposite with an innocent expression.
This person was almost mad with anger by Jian Yun, who was pretending to be stupid, and now the seeds in the ground were not germinating, but when Jian Yun planted the seeds, it didn't seem to take such a long time.
One of them was so angry that he wanted to make a move, but was stopped by the people around him, the village chief had now returned, and if he did it now, he was afraid that he would not be able to take advantage of it.
A person with a bit of scholarly temperament stood up and looked at Jian Yun: "It's the seeds we got back from you that day, did you do anything from them, otherwise why wouldn't these seeds germinate if they are planted?"
"The seeds won't germinate, what's the matter with me?" Jian Yun said with an innocent face.
