82_82370The prefect saw several dormitories, all of which were neat and clean, so he stopped and asked Xiaohu: "Are the places where these children live cleaned by special people?" ”

Xiaohu shook his head with a smile and replied, "No! We don't have such mothers-in-law to help them with cleaning, they all take turns on duty. The mothers-in-law only taught them how to clean up, how to tidy up their clothes and quilts, and so on. When they get into the habit, they become very conscious and do well.

Moreover, there are many girls over the age of 10 who take the initiative to take care of their younger siblings. In order to take care of the young children who are not yet able to take care of themselves, they were later encouraged to adopt one-on-one help. Mother-in-law often complimented the girls on how well they were doing. ”

Because the girls' dormitory and the widowed women's dormitory were all enclosed in the courtyard, they couldn't go in to visit, so Xiaohu praised the sensible and capable girls by the way, so that they could be registered in front of the prefect.

The prefect nodded and said with a smile: "You will find a way, this way of helping is really good." However, I heard that you have adopted more than 300 children at present, is there enough money? ”

Xiaohu scratched the back of his head and smiled innocently, "It's okay!" Rice, chickens, ducks, vegetables, these are all home-grown and home-raised, and we don't need to spend money. Clothes or something, two sets in a season, we all buy ordinary fabrics, and it doesn't cost much. We don't have much to offer to a few gentlemen and a doctor, as well as books, paper, and medicinal herbs, which cost a lot of money. ”

The magistrate opened his mouth and wanted to ask in surprise: Do you still worship doctors? However, it suddenly occurred to me that so many children heard that there were still old women, so there must be a doctor here. Ay! This Wang Xiaohu is really thoughtful.

The county ordered you to be wrong. This is not what Wang Xiaohu thinks, but what his daughter-in-law Liu Erya considers!

The prefect and the prefectural order heard a different emphasis. He was very satisfied that his state capital had such a model to set up a model, but he just reported it, and he didn't hook it at all, which was a bit overkill, but it was a pity that such a rare example of merit in the world. Since this Wang Xiaohu said that books and paper cost money, that's okay! This is the prefect's round. Just give them some from the school. He himself doesn't need to spend half a penny, but he can reap a lot of merits. It's so wonderful. Ha! Ha ha! Hahaha!

As they walked, they said that sometimes when they saw children in class, they would go outside the classroom to eavesdrop on the learning status of the students inside. Before I knew it, it was time to eat.

It was originally a co-ed cafeteria. The girls and the young women hid in the courtyard to eat, knowing that they could not be heard in the outer courtyard, but they still did not dare to speak loudly. For fear of disturbing the nobles outside.

The original one meat, one vegetable and one soup, because of these big shots. It became two meats, two vegetables and one soup.

The dean of a private college in the state capital was a little unconvinced, and with a very strong tone of questioning, he asked aloud: "Is your usual food like this?!" ”

Xiaohu hurriedly replied: "No! Today is because you came over and notified the kitchen in advance to add vegetables. Usually, there is only one meat, one vegetable and one soup. ”

Master Fang of Fuxue said unhurriedly on the side: "That's also very good, ordinary poor families can eat a meat meal on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve all year round." Here's the kid. originally had no father or mother, and he didn't even have the ability to live. Now they can have books to read and meat to eat here, which is also their good life. ”

The reason why Bachelor Fang has such feelings is that he came over like this when he was a child. The poor family can't eat anymore, but his father desperately wants him to study. Fortunately, he was also angry, and the first time he got out of the examination room, he passed the exam. The family situation has also improved with his successive examinations, but this improvement is only limited to food, drink, clothing and housing.

The real financial resources are still very meager, and it is also because he does not have too much financial resources as a backing, and he is too scholarly and will not do things tactfully, so it is very difficult to go on the career of an official. Later, he simply gave up and concentrated on learning, but fortunately, hard work will be rewarded. In seven or eight years, he was enshrined as a bachelor, although his bachelor was only a title given by the students to the gentleman they admired, far less than the big bachelor who was the cabinet and the minister, but this reputation was much louder and more practical than when he was a local official.

Although he has also been in the officialdom for a few years and has become a little more sleek, he still can't get used to picking bones in eggs like this and obviously wanting to stir up trouble.

In fact, everyone who came to eat today understands in their hearts that it is impossible for children to give two meat and two vegetables every day in their daily life. With so many children to eat, no one can afford to eat for a long time. In this way, it is good that there are many fields and mountains, and there are many livestock that can be raised, otherwise no matter how much family property is, it will not be able to provide it.

The prefect understands better, because this is what he explained. Xiaohu listened to his special explanation, and didn't do anything special, just added a meat and a vegetable. In this way, he did not have to listen to the accusations of those scholars and gentlemen who loved to clean their names because he had eaten a good lunch. What's more, how much can he eat himself? It's not that the "tails" who pick up the bowl to eat meat and put down the bowl and scold the mother are happy!

Some of the gentlemen who had been elected to visit left their seats with bowls and went to sit with the children and talk to them privately. When the children said that they occasionally worked to earn money, they were surprised.

"Are you not raised by them like children of the house? Where are the children who have to pay for the work at home? ”

One child couldn't help but interject: "yes! The owner raised us as his own children, and he would have a New Year's dinner with us every year, and he would give us New Year's money! ”

A gentleman saw a child about * years old with his right hand burned, and only his thumb could hold chopsticks to eat, but he felt that he used it quite neatly. He asked curiously: "It's not convenient to hold a pen and write like his hand, can he still read?" ”

The child sitting next to this gentleman looked up and said, "You can read it!" His hand was secretly burned sweet potatoes when he was four years old, and his aunt saw it, and burned his hand like this in a fit of anger. But. He's so good, he's a good learner, he's very good at handwriting, and he's better at arithmetic than we do. The gentlemen like him so much, and the lady of the proprietor also said that let him study hard, and he will be invited to be the bookkeeper in the future! ”

The three gentlemen sitting at this dinner table looked at each other. Although they also know that life will not be easy for children without parents and motherless. But I would never have thought that I could put a child who was only three or four years old and was cute. Burn like this! How ruthless does this have to be to do such a vicious thing?!

This child with a handicapped right hand is called Zhang Yongan (the name given by Erya)! In fact, he is not an orphan without a father or mother, and it is not surprising that he has many stories. But how much of an unfortunate life is made up of a table full of cups? Experiencing one in one's life is enough to ruin Miè's life.

Although the newly established Damin Dynasty was a country and a peaceful country. There was no war. But there will still be a conscription every seven years, because there are veterans who have served for seven or ten years and are allowed to retire and return to their hometowns. As soon as these veterans are gone, their vacancies need to be filled by new recruits.

Zhang Yongan's father, who had just been married for less than half a year, caught up with the seven-year conscription. Although Zhang Yongan's grandfather has many sons. But there aren't many options to choose from. The eldest can't be a soldier if he wants to be in charge of the family, and the next three sons haven't gotten married yet, so of course they can't be soldiers. Only Zhang Yongan's father was the most suitable (Zhang Yongan's mother was more than three months pregnant at that time). With so many sons, the second child was chosen to be a soldier. Knowing the situation in his family, this is understandable. However, what makes people hate is that why can't their family treat Zhang Yongan's mother and son well?!

When Zhang Yongan was three or four years old, his uncle's elder brother stole sweet potatoes and put them in the pot hole to cook them and eat them. Who knew that the eldest aunt, who had never punished her brothers, suddenly became angry with him, grabbed his hand, and stuffed it into the hole of the pot that was burning. He cried out loud in pain and fear, and by the time his mother heard her son crying and ran into the kitchen to rescue him, the hand had burned out. If it weren't for the instinctive reaction of people, when they were burned, the four fingers wrapped around the thumb and clenched into a fist, it is estimated that this hand would only be left with a lump of palms.

Afterwards, his grandfather didn't say anything other than scolding his eldest uncle. The child was infected by the burned area, and the person was also very sick and feverish, but no one cared about it. His mother cried and knelt down and begged them to give them some money to heal the child, but they only had one sentence: "It's not bad to let him suffer a loss, he will steal at a young age, and it will not be a good thing when he grows up." Why do you spend that money to treat him!? ”

Zhang Yongan's mother was forced to have no choice, so she took the child to the county and sold herself to treat the child's injuries. But when people saw the child's hands rotten like that, some hid their faces and left, some vomited disgustingly in front of them, and some kindly left a penny or two in front of them, but no one was willing to pay for her.

Fortunately, this child's life should not be extinguished, and there is a young man who lives not far from Hepu Town, who is a second child in the shop opposite. Seeing that the two of them looked like orphans and widows, he instructed her to take the child and take the more than a dozen yuan from others, and quickly find a carriage to go to Hepu Town, and find the orphanage run by the Wang family, there must be someone to take care of it.

When Zhang Yongan's mother brought Zhang Yongan here, the orphanage center in the town had been running for two years, and all aspects were basically mature, and there was no shortage of doctors and medicinal materials. As soon as Zhang Yongan arrived here, he immediately cleaned the wound, bandaged it with medicine, and boiled a medicinal soup to relieve fever for him to drink.

The child's heart is big, as long as the body is not painful or itchy, there is no trouble or sorrow. Therefore, a few days later, his mother was still snotting and tearful about the suffering of the child, but he jumped and jumped, holding the wounded hand that was bandaged like a big gourd and playing everywhere.

All the children who come here, Er Ya will encourage them to tell their classmates what happened to them, so that the pain in their hearts will be reduced, and they will know that the other party is as bad as themselves, so there is no inferiority, and they can in turn give their love to others.

Zhang Yongan was originally an ignorant child, and for him, the disability of his right hand was just that he was not as neat as others, and he had no deeper thoughts. At the same time, the other children were very sympathetic to his plight, and helped him everywhere and loved him. So, his life here is very happy and happy. His mother saw that the child was doing so well here, so she didn't want to take him back to Zhang's house, so she settled here like a widowed woman. also asked Erya to give the child a big name, and Erya hoped that the child would be safe and secure in the rest of his life, so he named him Yong'an.
