Wei Zi stared at Wei Xiucai and fell into a deep sleep, and did not return to his house until Wei Dahua came back from grocery shopping. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xie Mengxin was squatting on the ground looking at the books in her box, and when she saw her come in, she stood up hurriedly, a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, I saw that you have so many books here, and I couldn't help it, so I flipped through it."

"Just read it, aren't books just for people to read?" Wei Zi didn't care, she picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water and handed it to Xie Mengxin, "But don't squat on the ground, isn't it good to sit on the stool?" We don't have tea at home, so we can only grieve you to drink some water. ”

Xie Mengxin put the book back in its place, and then walked over with a smile, "Don't be so polite to me, let's get down to business!" ”

Wei Zi smiled slightly, took out the paper and brush and put them on the wooden table.

"Let me start with my initial thoughts. I think that since we are going to open an academy, the first thing to consider is the source of students and teachers. Needless to say, since we are thinking about them, we naturally have to choose between the ages of eight and ten, and the study time is half a year. ”

Wei Zi said as she continued to record the key points on the paper with a brush, so that Xie Mengxin could raise any doubts later.

"Children at this age already have their own thinking and receptivity, and they learn things relatively quickly. What's more, their families are also relatively receptive. After all, what I want is that we have to take care of food and housing, which will reduce some of the burden on their families. ”

"Then the first thing we have to face is the problem of teacher sources. What courses are we going to offer when we open the academy? First, embroidery, this is what I teach; Second, medical skills, this is what you teach. But two courses are far from enough, even if we add the Hexiang of Xiao Wuzi, it will not meet our expectations. ”

"That means we're going to have to pay for a teacher to come over. This is another large amount of money, and it may not be enough for me to pay a hundred taels of silver. ”

Xie Mengxin nodded thoughtfully, frowned slightly at what Wei Zi had written, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Qingqing, I think there is a more important issue that you have overlooked. If we want to open an academy, we must have a place, right? Do you buy a house, or do you buy a piece of land to build it? ”

"Besides, I don't think their parents will trust us so easily and hand over their children to us, right?"

Wei Zi couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at the sky, and sighed sadly, "Money, money, money, why don't you fall from the sky!" Some things are well thought out, but once you start implementing them, you feel that nothing is difficult. ”

"As for the girls, it doesn't matter. There are many families in the village who treat their daughters as money-losers, especially at this age, which may be even more annoying. But the children of poor families are in charge early, and they are the most good at looking at people's colors at this time, and they should not give up easily if they have such an opportunity. ”

"The main thing is that I can't call the shots." Xie Mengxin looked at Wei Zi slightly apologetically, "I don't like words anymore in the eyes of many people, but if I start an academy directly, I'm afraid that what they say will be even more ugly." I don't care about that, but my mother is the most stubborn, and I'm afraid she'll just lock me up. ”

"So, you still have to check the big things. But when it comes to money, I can ask my brother for it. ”

"Or don't."

Wei Zi hurriedly waved his hand, stopping Xie Mengxin's thoughts, "I think if your brother knew about this matter, I'm afraid he would have stopped it." I don't know what you big guys think, but I've heard of some taboos. ”

"But where the academy is located, I can still provide it." Xie Mengxin pondered for a while, and a hint of joy gradually overflowed from the corners of her eyes: "I have a Zhuangzi not far from here, and my mother rewarded me for playing." The harvest there was very bad, and the rent could not be paid every year, so only a mother-in-law was left to guard it. It's a big place, and you can find some masons to build some houses. ”

"Won't the mother-in-law sue your mother?"

Wei Zi pursed her lips and looked at Xie Mengxin with a little worry.

"You can rest assured, the title deed of the Zhuangzi has been given to me, just do whatever I want. Even my mother doesn't care if I build a house or grow things in it. ”

Xie Mengxin winked playfully, and then she was still worried, "But if you don't ask my brother for it, where will we get the money to do so many things?" ”

"You don't have to worry about this, let's open the academy first." Wei Zi propped his elbows on the table, his eyes were full of perseverance, "There is one more thing that you need to do, this matter has to be yours, I can't do it." ”

Xie Mengxin glanced at her suspiciously, and a sense of foreboding suddenly appeared in her heart.

What do you need to do on your own?

"After all, you know all the young ladies of each family, and it's easy to ask them what kind of maids they like, right?"

Wei Zi looked at Xie Mengxin expectantly, and almost came up to hug her, it shouldn't be difficult, right?

Xie Mengxin's eyes widened, feeling as if she had been struck by lightning, and her whole body froze.

What did she say?

Let me ask those women what kind of maids they like?

"Kill me, I can't do that." Xie Mengxin stood up abruptly and took a step back vigilantly.

"What's wrong?" Wei Zi was a little puzzled, not knowing why Xie Mengxin suddenly reacted so much.

"I'm an outlier in their eyes, don't embarrass me." Xie Mengxin showed a trace of disdain in her eyes, and pursed her lips, "Besides, I can't hear half the truth when I talk to them, you might as well ask me!" ”

"No, there is no right to speak without research."

Wei Zi shook his head, looked at Xie Mengxin with a frightened face, and shrugged helplessly.

"Even if you don't ask all of them, you'll have to pick a few. Otherwise, how can we know, how to cultivate better maids? ”

"Why do you still talk in a set." Xie Mengxin was so entangled by her that she couldn't help it, so she glanced at her and said helplessly, "Since you said so, I had to invite a few over." However, you can't just let me be there, since you said that being a maid is so good, why don't you pretend to be my maid and try it yourself. ”

Wei Zi was dumbfounded, and was speechless by her, so she had to smile wryly and nodded.

Miss Xie's sense of revenge is very strong, and she generally doesn't do this kind of thing, except for treating diseases and saving people.

Since she has suffered a loss, she must make up for it in the person who made her suffer.

Wei Zi couldn't help but secretly cheer herself up, fortunately, although she was sold before, she also had maids waiting.

If you learn like that, you shouldn't have a problem, right?

Xie Mengxin saw Wei Zi's extremely distressed appearance, and his previous depressed mood couldn't help but improve. Her eyes were fixed on one place, constantly thinking about who could be invited.

Wei Zigang wanted to speak, but there was a banging knock on the door. Before she could open the door, Wei Dahua knocked on the door and came in.

"The rice is ready, and I don't know if it suits Sister Xin'er's taste, but you can eat a little."

Wei Zi saw Wei Dahua staring at Xie Mengxin with a smile on her face, and was a little surprised, "Mother, how did you know that you knocked on the door today?" ”

Wei Dahua turned her head and glared at her fiercely, and when she turned her head to look at Xie Mengxin, she had a smile on her face again. She rubbed her hands together gently, and her enthusiasm made Wei Zi jealous.

"Don't listen to this stinky girl's nonsense, I usually know etiquette. By the way, inviting you to dinner should be called a meal, right? Why don't you go eat now? Today's dish is good, and I listened to you, and made up for Qingqing's father. ”

Wei Zi couldn't help laughing, but she didn't say anything to laugh at her mother.

Xie Mengxin was a little embarrassed, she smiled lightly, "Auntie, you really don't have to be so polite to me, just treat me as your own child." I'm not that discipline-oriented, otherwise I wouldn't be a doctor, would I? ”

Wei Dahua's expression relaxed slightly, and she glared at Wei Zi again, "Stinky girl, since you follow Sister Xin'er, you should learn from others." You see how well people talk, you look at you, you don't look like a girl every day. ”

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Wei Zi to react, turned around and left.

Wei Zi glanced at Xie Mengxin helplessly and shrugged his shoulders.

Dad better get better quickly, without Dad watching, her mother doesn't even know how to save her face at all.

Xie Mengxin was stunned and didn't know what she was thinking, and her expression was a little complicated. Wei Zi hurriedly stretched out his hand and gently pulled her.

"Let's go eat, it's certainly not as good as your food, but it's still good."

Xie Mengxin smiled and nodded, and walked out with her.

The meals in the hall are indeed sumptuous, all the chicken, duck and fish are available, and Wei Dahua also specially bought the most delicious baked cakes on the street, Wei Zi couldn't help but be moved with tears in his eyes.

After coming back for so long, I can be regarded as seeing meat.

"Sister Xin, eat quickly." Wei Dahua saw Xie Mengxin's sluggish expression, thinking that she was embarrassed to eat first, "Qingqing, my father's I have already set it aside, although you relax and eat a big meal, if you don't eat enough, I won't be happy!" ”

Wei Dahua was not used to Xie Mengxin's crepe calling her aunt, and she felt that goosebumps were about to rise.

It's also her cheap life, and it's painful to hear people call her mother, call her aunt or something.

"Auntie, you don't have to worry about me, I'm a junior, I don't have to eat first. Besides, won't you see my uncle go to dinner later? Xie Mengxin hurriedly pressed Wei Dahua on the main seat to do a good job, and then sat next to Wei Zi, who kept smiling, sullen.

She can call her aunt according to Wei Dahua's words, but can she call her Uncle Wei Xiucai? She couldn't scream.

With so much oil and water, how can people swallow it?

Wei Zi held back a smile and pushed a bowl of porridge in front of Xie Mengxin, "Try this bowl of porridge, this shredded chicken porridge is my mother's unique job, and it is not easy for you to eat it outside." ”

Xie Mengxin looked down at the porridge in the bowl and couldn't help but stay for a moment. The big fish and meat on the table make this shredded chicken porridge quite valuable and more beautiful.

The chicken is chopped and almost the size of a grain of rice. The white rice is mixed with the pink chicken, and there are some shiny little cubes, about the size of a grain of rice. Xie Mengxin gently flicked it twice with a spoon, only to see that the small square turned out to be a shiitake mushroom.

The most pleasing thing is that there are a few coriander leaves in it, green, pink and white are intertwined, but it does not make people feel noisy at all.

A fragrance exclusive to food floated upward, even though Xie Mengxin was not hungry, she couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
