Pei Jieming looked at the clean and tidy small courtyard in front of him, and his heart was complicated, and after talking to the jade girl, he was taken to this house. Compared to his thatched huts, this place is simply paradise. After all, he is a showman and has his own pride, but he is still very happy to live here.

Pei Jieming first looked around the house, and the location of this house was also very good, less than an hour away from Zhuangzi, and he was not in a hurry to go back and forth to school. In addition, although this house is in the city, it is in the depths of the alley. Without all the noise, it's a great place to read.

This two-entry small courtyard, the backyard is where he lives. The main room in the front yard is empty, and in the cross courtyard on the west side, neat tables and seats are set up for classes. In the courtyard on the east side, there are wooden stakes and targets, which is also a martial arts training ground. In the transept to the east, there lived a couple in their fifties and sixties. Both husband and wife came to see the house.

After talking to each other, I learned that the man's surname was Liu. simply called them Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu. According to Uncle Liu, his temporary task is to take care of the yard. After the academy opened, in addition to being responsible for inspecting the entire courtyard, he was also responsible for sending the children on the Zhuangzi home when Mu Xiu.

"Don't those kids go back every day?" asked Benjamin Pei, surprised.

"Naturally, not. Uncle Liu said with a smile, "This round-trip pick-up, once it comes, it is too time-consuming, and all the good time is wasted on the road." Second, if it is rainy or bad, it is not safe on the road. Do you see that door?"

Pei Jieming looked in the direction pointed by Uncle Liu, and sure enough, he saw a corner door hidden behind a tree. I only heard Uncle Liu continue: "Through that corner door, it is also an independent small courtyard, and when the time comes, those children will live there." ”

Oh, yes! The corner door makes it easy for students to get around, and it also cleverly separates the places where they study and rest. Pei Jieming sighed in his heart: I have to say that the mind of the girl from the Yu family is really exquisite!

After getting into the carriage, Pei Jieming looked at the small courtyard that was getting farther and farther away from him, as well as the scenery on the side of the road that kept regressing, and he still had an unreal feeling in his heart. Since a series of changes, the edges and corners of his body have long been smoothed. If it weren't for the breath in his heart, he would have lived in a state of confusion. Just when he felt confused, wondering if it still made sense for him to insist like this, an unexpected joy appeared in front of him. This is also God's affirmation of his persistence until now, right?!

He exhaled the turbidity in his chest, squinted his eyes, and looked at the clear blue sky, not knowing how to repay this kindness. At the same time, he thought of another question, why did Miss Yu teach the children in Zhuangzi to read and write?

"Brother Meng, do you know why?" On the road leading to the front yard of the Yu family, Han Wu, who was most unable to hold his breath, asked bluntly. After the first day of the new year, several families in the Zhuangzi returned to the Zhuangzi, leaving only a few principals to discuss the matter of sowing the seeds in the next year.

Unexpectedly, I was called over today, not to discuss the affairs of Zhuangzi, but to tell them that the children of several families of their families were too young to work in the fields. But several children are smart and clever, and everyone has seen the remarkable performance on Chinese New Year's Eve. I can't bear to let such a good seedling be wasted like this, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, let them follow Pei Jieming Pei Xiucai from Crooked Neck Village to learn to read and write.

When everyone heard the news, their expressions were different, but no matter what they thought in their hearts, they could only nod their heads and thank the girl for her great kindness. Lan Xin didn't care what they were thinking, and after informing them, he waved them out.

Seeing that there was no one around, Han Wu really couldn't help it, frowned tightly, and asked the question in his heart. Everyone else also raised their eyebrows and looked at Steward Meng. Steward Meng said with a haha: "The girl naturally has her intentions in arranging it like this." Besides, our fur monkey ran to the next village all day long. It's good to have a place to be constrained now. ”

"I don't know, that's why the girl came up with this idea. Tong Dachuan nodded and said, "I heard that time, the grandson of our two families crossed the mountain behind Zhuangzi and went to Crooked Neck Village, and was seen by the girl herself. Fearing that her two children were in danger, she had the mountain road blocked. By the way, it was also that time when the girl came back from Zhuangzi and told me to pay attention to a set of two-entry courtyards. The surroundings should be clean. The more Tong Dachuan spoke, the more he felt that there was such a possibility, and the corners of his eyebrows were full of smiles.

"What Uncle Tong said makes sense, and I also think that the girl has already had this plan. Guo Xi nodded and said, he is young, a generation younger than other stewards, and his family was chosen by his youngest son, Guo Zixuan. "If not, how could the girl give each of the five of them a set of study and four treasures on Chinese New Year's Eve?"

"Yes, that makes sense!" the others nodded in agreement. "Okay, okay, it's cold, don't gather here, why are you going. Steward Meng smiled and waved his hand and said.

"Isn't it? I'll have to go back and work on it and improve the new harrow. Let's see how we can do it with less effort. Tong Dachuan rubbed his hands and said. After saying hello to the others, he went back to his house.

Han Wu looked at Tong Dachuan's hurried back, patted his head, and exclaimed, "Oh, I'm going to go back and think about the greenhouse too." As he spoke, he walked away.

Meng was in charge, Guo Xi and Han Da were made to cry and laugh by the appearance of the two of them, shook their heads, and said goodbye with a smile.

After Steward Meng returned to the house, Mrs. Meng greeted her. Looking at the smile in his eyebrows, he asked with a smile, "What did the girl tell you when she came to you?" "Mrs. Meng was originally going to go back with everyone, but she contracted the cold, so Lan Xin asked her to stay in the house, and when she was well, she went back with Steward Meng.

"The girl didn't just call me, she called the others. Steward Meng sat on the big pit near the window, took the teacup in his wife's hand, and drank the tea before he spoke, "The girl told us that after fifteen, let our family's Meng Zhuo, the Tong family's Xiaohu, the Guo family's Guo Zixuan, and the Han family's Han Qiu and Han Dong study with Mr. ”
