"Great-granddaughter-in-law! I've asked you a few of the teachers you're looking for. First of all, the one who is close to you is the Xiucai who retired from your previous family, I think that person has a bad character, so I don't want it.

The other is a gentleman who used to teach in the town, and since the Huang family left, the private school can't be run anymore.

The teacher didn't want to go far because his home was here, so he was willing to come to us. However, the bundle is very high, and it costs five taels of silver a month! I don't really want to please.

The other one is from the town next door. He is the youngest in the family, and his elder brothers even sold their fields in order to provide him with the exam, and they failed to pass the exam twice.

Because there is no land at home, there is no income. He wanted to come out to teach and earn some money for his family.

This kid! I went to inquire with the people around me, also with his classmates and his husband, and I talked to him himself, and I thought this child was good.

So, I want to keep this child! ”

Erya had a different idea, so she put down the bowl and said, "Grandpa! After all, the gentleman in that town has been teaching for a long time, and relatively speaking, he has more experience. For us who started from scratch and didn't understand anything, it would be more appropriate to ask him.

But we also want that Xiucai, I still have a point in the town next year, and I need a teacher to teach, just let that Xiucai follow the internship, and then I will look for people everywhere in the province. ”

Grandpa nodded with a smile, and did not forget to praise Erya: "You kid, you are a person who does big things, and you think about everything in front." Well, both of them are waiting for news from me! ”

When Grandpa Tai stood up to leave, he remembered another thing: "Oh! By the way, it's just that both of them have to arrange accommodation, do you have a place to arrange? If not, I'll arrange it. The gentleman in that town arranged that he only needed to give him a place to eat and rest at noon, and he could go back to live in the evening. That little Xiucai is going to be more troublesome, he needs to live here, and he needs to cook and eat here. ”

Regarding Mr.'s accommodation, Erya had a plan when she wanted to run a school, so she replied to Grandpa: "Don't worry, Grandpa, I have already arranged this, and we will move to Uncle's house in the next two days."

Our house was vacated, one for the bricklayers to live in, and the other was divided into two small rooms, one for the old gentleman and one for the little Xiucai.

The kitchen is shared for them, and if that doesn't work, we'll build another kitchen.

The hall is the brightest, and it will be used as a classroom for the children for the time being. On the other side of the new house, I plan to build a few more bright classrooms dedicated to teaching, and in the future, more and more people will come to study in the surrounding area. ”

Grandpa smiled and boasted: "Okay!" You kid, think things through. The day before yesterday, my aunt was still inquiring about our school, and I guess he probably wanted to send his children to study as well! ”

The uncle also laughed, and politely pulled the grandfather: "Sixth grandfather, you sit for a while, this tea hasn't been drunk yet!" ”

Grandpa sat down again, took a sip of tea and sighed: "Hey! I'll sit down a little longer, and you will eat, and I will be alone. Oops! I drank this tea well, and I used to eat it a little greasy, and it was uncomfortable. Now I drink a cup of tea given to me by my great-granddaughter-in-law after dinner, but it is much more comfortable. ”

Er Ya hurriedly reminded Grandpa: "Grandpa, this tea can't be too strong, otherwise it will hurt your stomach." ”

"Not thick, not thick! How willing to drink strong! As for that little tea, they still rushed to drink it with me, and I am now locked in a box, and I have to secretly take tea every time. Otherwise, they all follow suit. ”

Er Ya smiled: "Grandpa, there is little tea this year, and I have sold it for money." I'll give you more next year, and I'm sure you'll have enough to drink for a year.

In a few days, we will go to pick some early summer tea leaves, but that one is not suitable for the elderly. When the time comes, give you two pounds to drink for your uncles and cousins, and they won't rob you. ”

Grandpa took another sip of tea and nodded with a smile: "Okay!" It just so happens that I keep a little bit for the family to drink during the Chinese New Year. ”

After eating, the eldest aunt and the second aunt helped the second aunt clean up the house, and they had to move over tomorrow.

Anzi followed behind and pulled Erya vigorously, "Sister-in-law! Go to my house, I have a lot of houses. ”

The uncle and the second uncle have a lot of houses, because it is more convenient to live in the uncle's house if they want to eat at the uncle's house and discuss things. Therefore, Erya will choose to live temporarily in the uncle.

Thinking of this, he smiled and said to Anzi, "Oops! Anzi is so good! Know how to invite your brother and sister-in-law to live at your house. It's a pity that my sister-in-law is too lazy! How nice it is to live in my uncle's house, and I can eat when I get up in the morning, and I don't even have to walk a step! ”

The second aunt smiled strangely and said: "You just coax him, he just wants to hear you tell Xiaolong a story, otherwise, how can he, a fart child, know to invite people to live home?!" ”

Erya grinned, Anzi didn't know that he was betrayed by his mother, and he was still stupidly pulling Erya to try his best to persuade Erya to go to his house.

Xiaolong was playing with Hongguo in the hall, and when he heard someone inside mention him, he hurriedly ran into the house and asked loudly, "What are you calling me for?" I'm coming! ”

Erya looked up at him, and saw that his eyes were black and bright, and the cleanliness was incomparable, and his heart was as soft as water.

"Oops! Our little master is here, what were you playing with your sister just now? ”

The eldest aunt was busy with the things in her hands while coaxing Xiaolong.

Xiaolong stretched out the chess piece he was holding in his hand and showed it to the eldest aunt: "We are playing the old pig and eating the little pig, and my sister has eaten me." ”

The second aunt laughed and teased Xiaolong: "Oh! Our little dragon turned out to be a little pig! Why doesn't it look like it!? Come on, let the second aunt take a good look. ”

Xiaolong hurriedly ran to his sister-in-law and hid, stretched out his little head, and argued: "Xiaolong is not a pig!" Auntie's little pig is black and ugly, and Xiaolong is so good-looking! Sister-in-law!? ”

The second girl's hands were a little dirty, and there was no way to touch him, so she smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes!" Our little dragon is a good-looking little pig! ”

Xiaolong didn't know if he didn't understand Erya's words or didn't hear clearly, so he nodded and followed very hard: "Hmm! My sister-in-law is right! ”

The eldest aunt and the second aunt suddenly laughed, eager to roll on the ground.

Anzi walked over and hugged Xiaolong and whispered to Xiaolong. "Fool! My sister-in-law said you were a piglet, and you were right! ”

Xiaolong scratched his cheeks innocently and asked Anzi puzzled: "But my sister-in-law said that I am good-looking!" ”

Anzi looked at Xiaolong with hatred and shook his head with a sigh.

"Forget it! I don't have to talk to you. ”

The eldest aunt and the second aunt finally laughed, and when they couldn't stop laughing, they hurriedly drove them out.

"Anzi, you hurry up and take your brother out to play, with you here, we won't stop working."

Grandpa was really fast, and he invited the two gentlemen back the next afternoon.

Er Ya didn't talk directly to the two teaching gentlemen, but they chatted and Er Ya listened to the side.

These two gentlemen, the second girl looks very good. Although the old gentleman has not communicated with readers in the new era for a long time, and may have little social interaction, he seems to be a little conservative, but he is steady and has obvious solid teaching experience.

Although Xiao Xiucai was a little cringed by several scientific expeditions, it can be seen from the chat that he is not the kind of dogmatic and rigid person, and he is quite knowledgeable in terms of knowledge and treatment of people.

Both parties expressed their satisfaction, and they set the time for the month and the beginning of school, and they went back, packed their things, and prepared to come over in two days.

The next day, Erya went to the county seat to buy books, paper, ink, pens, and inkstones for teaching.

The eldest uncle and the second uncle, Daman, and several grandchildren of the grandfather's family, they went to the carpenter's house and moved back all the desks and chairs that Er Ya had booked before.

Xiaohu took the bricklayer to divide the house they lived in into two rooms, and opened a door to the north room from the inner wall at the north end of the hall.

He cleaned up the other room where the harrier was kept, put the harrier in a cage, and took it to the uncle's house.

In just two days, the three rooms were clean and bright.

Originally, when the school was going to be opened, everyone was not active. When the husband came, the classroom was ready, and those people sent their own children over.

The guide was not well prepared, lacking a lot of tables, chairs, books, and the four treasures of the study.

They are all children of their own family, because they have said that they are clan studies, and they can't be pushed out, so Erya has to let them squeeze the two of them first, and share a textbook.

Grandpa was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and asked them to move the table from his house. Erya is funny when you think about it, their family is a big dinner table, do you want the children to go to class around the dinner table?

"Grandpa, forget it! Let's let the children squeeze in first, and I'll ask a few more teachers to play desks and chairs, or it will be fine in two or three days. ”

Those family members laughed wryly, and a voice came out of the crowd: "Sixth grandfather, we didn't expect that this nephew and daughter-in-law would really be able to run the school, and we thought she was playing!" ”

Grandpa: "Hmph! , scolded at the voice: "It's okay for you to be idle all day long, bragging and farting." Therefore, I think that others are also bragging! ”

Erya asked Xiaohu to ask the two gentlemen if they had any arrangements, and if they had any requirements? If not, she will go back to her uncle's house first.

The two gentlemen looked at their house and were very satisfied. Because the old gentleman only rested for a while at noon, he lived in the north house, and the south house was given to Xiao Xiucai.

Even if the old gentleman is only living temporarily, the room is not sloppy. Leaning against the north window, the same two places in accordance with the style of later generations, to the special desk, the desk on the four treasures should be complete.

The beds were all new quilts and mattresses, not a single grass was put on the bed, and the mosquito nets were also newly bought. A bedside table for lampstands and tea sets, and a hanger for clothes at the foot of the bed.

Although the room is small and the things are few and simple, the old gentleman still feels comfortable and does not feel neglected.

The little gentleman's side is similar to the old gentleman's side, but there is an extra wardrobe. The little gentleman was more satisfied than the old gentleman, which was much better than his own room.

The quilt he originally used has been covered for more than ten years, the cushion is straw, the original color of the quilt has long been invisible, and the sheets are patches and patches.

Those are all because I spend too much money on studying, but fortunately, the books I read are still useful.

The master gave him three taels of silver a month, although it was two taels less than the old gentleman, but compared to those young people who were like himself who won the show, this month's salary was already very high. Compared with his usual income, it is ten times more.

It's really a golden house in the book! Hey
