In fact, with the money in Wang Xin's hand, he can buy some rice and grain from Taobao and sell it, and he can pay for tuition for decades.

But the key thing is that the money in his hand is not easy to get by.

Moreover, he has been here for more than half a year, and so far, except for a few mountains on the edge of the village, he has never left Wangjia Village, let alone gone to the town.

Even if you want to find a black market, you can't find it.

So far, he doesn't have a penny in his hand, and people describe himself as poor and can still use the jingle all over his body, but he doesn't even have a jingle on his sleeves.

If it weren't for the different currencies on both sides, he would have wanted to buy some money from Taobao.

He was so entangled here, but Wang Daniu and Liu Mei on the other side discussed it because of the hundreds of catties of sweet potatoes.

"Dad, the problem of the dowry should be solved now, why don't we find a matchmaker tomorrow?"

Liu Mei finally felt relieved.

Previously, she said that she would help Tiezhu Zhang Luo Zhang Luo, but in fact, she didn't have much confidence, because she was worried that if she looked back at the right eye, their family would not be able to get a dowry, which would be even more embarrassing.

Now, with the sweet potato as a base, I finally have some confidence.

After all, some time ago, she listened to which side she went, because dozens of catties of sweet potatoes sold her daughter.

In this year of famine, there is no food to use.

"It's time to ask the matchmaker for help.

But you can't be exposed, you have to press everything down as much as possible, as little as you can.

At most, it can't exceed fifty catties, otherwise we won't be able to explain it!"

Compared with Liu Mei, Wang Daniu is obviously calmer and thinks more far-reaching.

The dowry must be paid, but the amount must be controlled, and it can be subsidized a little in private, but it must not exceed one degree on the surface, otherwise everyone should be suspicious.

Yes, the sweet potatoes are indeed not grown on the land in the village, they are dug up in the mountains, and they are not as strict as they will be in the future.

However, I am afraid that some people will be jealous.

Once someone gets jealous and then reports something to the side of the story, then it's bad.

This kind of thing really doesn't make sense.

Therefore, it is necessary to grasp the degree and not make the people in the village suspicious or jealous.

"Fifty pounds is too little?

Some time ago, there was a married daughter in Tianjia Village next door, and it was exchanged for sweet potatoes that were the same weight as his daughter.

Eighty-nine pounds!

I heard that this has become popular, and I am afraid that fifty pounds may ......"

Liu Mei was a little hesitant, if it was really stuck on fifty catties, then the range of choices would be much smaller, and many people who looked good might not be willing.

"Let's see, tomorrow you invite Mrs. Wang over to take a look, it can be the best, just look at it.

If you can't, we'll talk about it then.

By the way, let's talk about this matter to Tie Zhu, after all, it is also a major event in his life, and he can't hide it from him, and he has to look at it himself. ”

Wang Daniu finally made a final decision, and decided to think about it for the time being, and then talk about the specific dowry according to the object of view.

If my son really likes it, maybe he'll have some blood.

But it can't be helped, who let it be biological.

After they discussed, before the next day, Wang Xin was at the dinner table, whispering, and a little hesitant to say that he wanted to be literate.

This is what he finally said after doing psychological construction for a long time.

It really made him quite embarrassed, he never thought that one day, he would have to play tricks with his family in order to go to school.

Back then, he often skipped school, and then was forced by his parents to go to school.

No matter how much it is like now, you may not be able to do it if you want to.

"Literacy, didn't the literacy class teach you the basic 300 words some time ago!"

Wang Da Niu didn't understand at all, and took two mouthfuls of a little musty paste, and said disapprovingly.

"Sanjin probably wants to learn to write!"

"The third brother doesn't want to go to a private school, it costs a lot of money to go to a private school, how can our family afford a student.

I'm dying of hunger.

What's more, two hours back and forth to the town, walking so many roads, and eating as much as you need!"

Needless to say, the one who said so much in one breath, and even mentioned the word private school again and again, was his second sister.

According to Wang Xin's own observations and speculations during these days, it is very likely that his second sister has ancient memories.

As for whether it was the awakening of her memories of her previous life, or the crossing of the house, he didn't know.

But it is estimated that she was not a good stubble in the past.

"You want to go to school?"

Wang Daniu listened to Wang Meijuan's words, immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, and pondered.

Liu Mei immediately objected: "Do you want to go to the elementary school in the town?"

No, what are you kidding, it takes four hours to get back and forth to town, and even if you're not tired, we don't dare to let you go.

There are a lot of flowers in these years!

There's even a kid out there.

And what's the use of going to school, didn't your dad and his two younger brothers also go to private school for several years?

I didn't see them learn anything, and now it's different from us digging in the ground, and even the bones are not as good as us, so they do that kind of work every time.

When I look back and record my work, I see what their family will do, maybe I won't be able to get a few catties of food all year round!

When the time comes, you won't have to count on the old lady's private house. ”

People's minds are constrained by their surroundings, and if there is no one around them to study, or if someone does not get benefits after studying, then they will naturally feel that studying is useless.

In addition, the news was closed at this time, and the state did not say that it advocated education for all, so it is normal for Liu Mei to have such thoughts now.

This was also the thinking of most ordinary farmers in that era.

I can't eat enough, what kind of books do I read?

With that effort, it's better to earn two more points.

Boys are like that, let alone girls?

Wang Xin didn't know how to persuade for a while.

Can he still say that after a few more years of study, he will be able to find a factory job after graduating from junior high school?

"Read it!

I'll go to the town when I have time, if I can stay, if not, I'll see it then!"

Wang Daniu's reaction was very unexpected by Wang Xin.

Originally, Wang Xin thought that his mother didn't agree, and his father probably wouldn't agree either.

Unexpectedly, after Wang Daniu hesitated and was silent for a while, he agreed, or was willing to ask.

If you are willing to ask, then it is equivalent to agreeing halfway, indicating that there is still a lot of hope.

"Dad, how much does this cost?"
