The Ling family went back to their parents' house early in the morning, because this time it was a matter of discussing the money, the Ling family did not take Zhao Changqing, and told Zhao Changqing to study well. Since spending money to invite Mr. Su as a teacher, the Ling family can't wait for her daughter to learn Mr. Su's skills in one go, and she is very attentive to Zhao Changqing's homework, for fear that she will spend the money in vain.

Fortunately, Zhao Changqing learned seriously, and after giving Mr. Su a point, it was like a pearl to go to the dust, gradually revealing the unique brilliance in his nature.

Mr. Su has always been clear about the principle that studying is for reason.

In addition to the Four Books and Five Classics that he is preaching, Mr. Su will also tell Zhao Changqing a history book every day and teach her some simple arithmetic, Mr. Su said, "The truth of life is in the Four Books and Five Classics, but only saints live according to the Four Books and Five Classics." Mortals can read the words of the sages, and right and wrong are in the history books. Learn some arithmetic, and then you can have a clear mind when you settle accounts. ”

At the same time, she will also cultivate some good habits of Zhao Changqing, for example, Mr. Su asked, "Changqing, you now have your own house, can the things in the house be registered?" ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Sir, there are only three or two things in my house, do you still have to register?" ”

Mr. Su smiled, "Don't think that if there are few things, you don't need to record." There are few things in the house, and after a long time, it is inevitable that you will make mistakes. From the furniture to the boxes, to your little clothes, to your little jewelry, where are your clothes in a season? What color clothes should I wear when to wear them? Your jewelry, in addition to valuable gold and jade, also silver, agate, small pearls, and so on; In addition, there are many small beads to wear in different seasons, and these things must be well known. Every once in a while, tidy up, where to put the less used, and where to put the commonly used. When you sort it out and write everything down in the booklet, you can be considered a caring person. ”

"I didn't think there were many things, but when my husband said it, I felt a lot of it."

Mr. Su smiled, "Although you are young now, you have your own house, and you will naturally have no shortage of things when you dress up and live in your daily life." Besides, you always have to grow up, and there will only be more things, do you have to wait for more things to develop good habits? When you don't feel enough when you use it, it's too late. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "What Mr. said is reasonable, I will take care of my room with Liu Er when I go back." It's just a few days since I moved my house, so it's clearest to sort it out. ”

Zhao Changqing thought for a while and said, "Then I'll sort it out once a month from now on." Zhao Changqing already understood what Mr. Su meant, not just for the sake of being transparent. Although her family is not a rich family, it is also a family with three or two servant women, slaves and masters, in the history that Mr. Su told, the emperor was incompetent and bullied by the ministers, not to mention people like them. Zhao Changqing is determined to change the cowardice of her previous life, she is not afraid of hardship, nor is she afraid of triviality, as long as what Mr. Su says is right and reasonable, she will do it.

Mr. Su smiled lightly, "You can also teach." I have to go back and think about how to make a booklet at a glance, and how many booklets to make. ”

"Sir, tell me how to make a book?"

Mr. Su smiled, "If I say everything, wouldn't you be lazy and think for yourself." ”

Zhao Changqing had no choice but to go back and think for himself.

In addition to the extra messengers who cleaned up the house and organized the books, in fact, Zhao Changqing also wanted to gossip and ask Mr. Su if he would go to Li's house for the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, don't look at Mr. Su's usual smile, there is always a feeling of involuntary respect on his body. What's more, Zhao Changqing is not a real child, she knows restraint and etiquette, so even if she is really curious, she just holds it in her heart and does not ask questions.

At the end of the morning class, Zhao Changqing went to have lunch with the old lady, Mr. Su smiled meaningfully, and Su Bai asked, "Niangniang, are you Sister Langqing again?" ”

"Nonsense, how could I be fooling Changqing. I am happy to see that your sister Qingqing has made progress in her schoolwork. Mr. Su corrected his son's disrespectful language.

There is such a mother, so that Su Bai is always full of doubts about things, Niangniang's words should not be believed, Su Bai said, "Niangniang will laugh like this every time I make a fool of myself." ”

Mr. Su touched his son's fleshy little face lovingly, "Niangniang is not playing tricks on Ah Bai, it is to exercise and teach Ah Bai, so that Ah Bai can grow into a little man." ”

Su Bai sighed slightly and said, "Niangniang always has a point." "He can't say anything about the mother.

Mr. Su smiled and said unashamedly, "That's because Niangniang is always on the side of justice and truth." ”

Su Bai said, "Niangniang, the appearance of Sister Qing when she left just now reminded me of a sentence. ”

"What?" Mr. Su has always been very patient with his son.

"I want to stop talking." Su Bai straightened his little face and said, "I feel that Sister Qing seems to have something to tell her mother." ”

Mr. Su smiled and asked, "Then do you know Lu Dao, why didn't your sister Qing speak?" ”

Su Bai thought for a long time, shook his head honestly, but said something funny in a milky voice, "I'm not the worm in Sister Qing's stomach, how can I know the Tao?" ”

Mr. Su smiled and asked while laughing, "Ah Bai, who did you learn these witticisms from?" ”

Su Bai smiled, "I'll remember what the bad pear said." "He used to go and play with pears.

Mr. Su explained, "There may be three reasons why your sister doesn't speak: first, she hasn't decided whether to open her mouth or not; Second, it's not something to talk about; Third, she likes to hold back. ”

Su Bai asked seriously, "Then Niangniang knows what Sister Daoqing is not good to talk about?" ”

Mr. Su learned from his son's tone just now, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he smiled, "Niangniang is not a worm in your sister's stomach, and I don't know what to do." ”

At a young age, Su Bai had been cultivated by his mother to have relatively rigorous logical thinking, and he would even ask rhetorically, "If Niangniang doesn't know the way, then what are the three reasons that Niangniang just said." ”

Mr. Su smiled, "But when people don't talk about something, it's about these three reasons." ”

Su Bai nodded as if he didn't understand, and asked enthusiastically, "Niangniang, then should we ask Sister Qing, what is wrong with her?" "Sister Qing is very good to him, when the mother is lazy in the summer, Sister Qing also bathes him, and she never forgets him when she has delicious snacks.

Mr. Su smiled, "Ah Bai, you must remember." If someone looks like they want to say something, you must not ask them what is going on with them. ”

"What are you doing?" He was just worried about Sister Qing.

Mr. Su raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Because most people in this world like to hold back." She likes to see Zhao Changqing's little appearance of not saying anything in her heart and then suffocating.

Su Bai blinked his big black and white eyes and said, "Niangniang, Ah Bai doesn't like to hold back." ”

Mr. Su's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked with a smile, "Really?" Then take out the big knife hidden under your bed. "The little thing is smart, and he has learned to carry his mother on his back!

Su Bai hurriedly said, "Niangniang, then Ah Bai is still holding on!" ”

Mr. Su laughed.

Ling and her husband came home from their parents' house after dark, and the husband and wife went to the old lady's house to say hello first. Old Lady Zhao saw that the Ling family was forced to be happy, but she just asked about the physical condition of the second elder of the Ling family, so she didn't say much, and said, "There are dishes left in the kitchen, you go back to eat, and rest early." ”

The husband and wife went back to the main courtyard, Zhao Changqing wanted to inquire about the situation, but Mrs. Zhao called her and said with a smile, "Your mother is not very happy, it doesn't hurt to go again tomorrow." ”

Zhao Changqing thought about this reason, the Ling family was angry, and he didn't necessarily have the heart to talk to her, or the husband and wife still had something to whisper, and they really didn't have the eyesight to pass now. Zhao Changqing smiled, and then told the old lady about Mr. Su asking her to register the things in the house, and the old lady Zhao nodded, "That's the reason." Sure enough, this Mr. Su invited very well, not only will he teach her granddaughter homework, but also the trivial matters of these girls' boudoirs will also guide Changqing.

Zhao Changqing said, "I thought about it for a long time, and I thought that it would be enough to set up two accounts." The time and days are listed in a book, and then they are divided into two categories: in and out. Whenever I add something to my house, I write it down according to the day and the type I entered. If you take out something at any time, write it down in the same category according to the day. In this way, every time you count the things in the house, you first take out the book that is entered into the account, and if it matches this account, it means that the thing is right. If there is more or less or something, it can also be checked according to the account book. ”

Mrs. Zhao listened to it and asked, "Then what about another account?" ”

"Another account is dedicated to my jewelry and a small private room." Zhao Changqing smiled, "These are the most valuable things." ”

Mrs. Zhao smiled, "Okay." Then he asked, "Do you still have a private room?" ”

Zhao Changqing said, "I save the New Year's money that my grandmother and mother give me every year." "She didn't have a place to use the money, and after a few years, she now has more than a dozen taels.

Old Mrs. Zhao smiled and asked Liu Er to take a hundred yuan to Zhao Changqing, and said, "Since you want to save a private house, you will be given a hundred yuan per month for pocket money in the future. Mrs. Zhao thought that when she was young, when the family was doing well, the children had monthly allowances to take. Later, the family was declining and there were many children, so the monthly routine was canceled. Now giving Changqing a hundred dollars is to tell her to learn to save money and use money.

Zhao Changqing smiled, "How can you feel less?" This is also enough to buy back the dim sum of Nanxiangyuan. However, I am reluctant to use it. I've saved it all up, and I've got important things to use again. ”

The old lady is all by her.

On the second day, Zhao Changqing only learned about Uncle Ling's envoy from Ling's mouth.

Ling touched her daughter's head, "I just hope that you will grow up and have a good future." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Mother, don't be discouraged, you are close to the eldest uncle and second uncle, and now the two uncles have become families and have wives and children." No matter how good your uncle is, you have to think about your aunts. The second uncle's house won't have a copper plate out of it, right? ”

Ling sighed, "Your second uncle didn't have such a temper before, over the years, your second uncle has been in charge of the fields and shops at home, and no matter how tight his family is, it is always much more prosperous than your uncle's family." Your second uncle was only willing to give five taels of silver, and if it weren't for your eldest uncle's mother's brother, I really wanted to throw his five taels of silver in his face! ”

"Then how much does our family have?" Zhao Changqing asked.

Ling said, "Of the three brothers in your eldest uncle's family, one of them is really difficult at home, so I didn't ask him to come out. Each of the rest confessed ten taels, and gave out twenty taels. There are still twenty-five taels, and our family is out. ”

Zhao Changqing asked, "Didn't my grandparents give out a penny of silver?" ”

Ling understood his parents very well and sighed, "How did your grandparents come up with this money?" took the money for the boss, and the second family also had a place to use the money, and after opening this opening, there was no head. You have to squeeze the bone marrow oil of the old couple! Besides, if you borrow money from your brothers and sisters, no matter how long it takes, your uncle will have to pay it back. If you borrow money from your grandparents and grandmothers, you won't have to pay it back with your aunt's temperament. ”

"Since I have borrowed everything, my mother should cheer up. Uncle did the book office, and it can be regarded as a fixed messenger, and there will always be a copy of the monthly salary every year in the future, which is also a good thing. Zhao Changqing smiled, "Yesterday my grandmother gave me a hundred yuan. ”

Yes, borrowed everything. Ling smiled and asked, "Good and decent, why did the old lady give you money?" ”

"Mr. Su asked me to learn to register the things in the house, saying that I knew what was going on. When I talked about my money, my grandmother gave me 100 yuan, saying that she would give me 100 yuan every month to save or buy what I liked. Zhao Changqing asked, "Mother, if you have a tight hand, I'll give you my private room first." ”

Ling's heart ironed and smiled, "You only have a few private rooms, save them for yourself." But I told you something, your third cousin heard that the family had invited a husband for you, and wanted to come and study with you. ”

Zhao Changqing said unhappily, "The money from our family, I said that Mr. Su taught me one, and the third cousin came, do you want to give Mr. Su a rest." Besides, the third cousin is here, do you want the eldest sister, the second sister and the fourth sister to come? ”

These words immediately entered Ling's heart, and Ling sighed, "It's not that your eldest aunt immediately stuffed your fourth sister in. My relatives are here, so why should I refuse? ”

Zhao Changqing said, "I have been studying for two years, and my third cousin and fourth cousin are illiterate, so Mr. Su has to teach him alone." They come every day, and the meals and snacks are also a lot of expenses every month, and the two aunts are really a good idea, so they can't say that they have discussed it. ”

The Ling clan was also very unhappy about this, not to mention anything else, can this teacher teach one and teach three? Ling's family is looking forward to her daughter's success, Zhao Changqing is her intimate little padded jacket, no matter how close her niece is, she is not her own daughter, Ling's is worried that the two nieces will delay her daughter's progress.

Ling was helpless, "It's really hard to refuse, how can you say that it hurts your relatives?" Otherwise, you should first go and find out Mr. Su's tone. ”

Zhao Changqing frowned sadly, "Mr. Su's restraint is not to mention for the time being, studying is a money-spending errand, mother thinks about it, our pen, ink, paper and inkstone, which is not an expense?" It's not expensive. Fortunately, there are some simple books, Mr. Su knows that our family is not rich, and she has bound them silently and taught me to read. In the future, a piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the cheapest piano will cost more than a dozen taels of silver, and the pigments used for painting are also expensive. If my mother is not always difficult to speak, can the two aunts be considerate of us? They only think that our family is wronged, and they don't take advantage of it. Can't I say that paints, books, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones have to be used by three sisters and four sisters? Mother, this is equivalent to providing for three people to study at once. "This is not a lie, reading is by no means just listening with two ears, books and pen and ink are very expensive. It is not a lie that ordinary people have three generations for one scholar.

As soon as Zhao Changqing said this, Ling's face gradually changed color, and he said, "This must be made clear, no matter how generous I am, I can't deceive people too much like this." We still have your brothers and sisters. ”

"yes." Zhao Changqing followed his mother's words and said, "I am very frugal in my own studies, because I know that the money is spent on my own, and I am reluctant to use more money." The piano is so expensive, so I'll learn the flute first. I don't buy paint for a while, I learn ink strokes first. The chess pieces are the cheapest kind to buy. Every day, I use up all the ink, and I don't waste a drop. I know that I understand my mother, but where does my eldest aunt and second aunt know that I understand my mother? If my mother is willing, why don't I go and talk to my two aunts, and make sure that my mother is not embarrassed. Even if I said it, my mother just said that I was too young and ignorant. ”

Ling asked, "What do you want to say?" "The girl is young, so the Ling family naturally wants to ask carefully, if Zhao Changqing has something inconsiderate, she will also give a mention or two.

Zhao Changqing smiled, "It's not difficult." Mother didn't ask me to go to find out Mr. Su's tone, my mother just thought about Mr. Su since he called our house, can you be kind to me? ”

"Needless to say." Mr. Su's character and knowledge, Ling also likes it very much.

Zhao Changqing said, "Yes, Mr. Su not only taught me homework, but also reminded me by Mr. Su when I made friends and invited guests to clean up the house and take care of my private room." If it is an ordinary gentleman, people just explain their homework to me clearly is to fulfill their responsibilities, where will they guide me so much? The third sister and the fourth sister are not little brothers and sisters, so if the eldest aunt and the second aunt want to send their sisters and sisters over to study, it is not good for our family to make Mr. Su lose. Our family has food and shelter, Mr. Su taught me one, and I have a bundle of rest for one or two a month. Since there are three more sisters and four sisters, they don't charge more, and each family receives one tael of silver a month. Otherwise, if the eldest aunt and second aunt's family don't give out a single penny, where can Mr. Su teach three students? Even if Mr. Su accepts it for the sake of face, if he feels awkward, he will treat me as before, and I will be the one who suffers. The mother did not have to save money for the two aunts. ”

"Also, since they have come to study, I will prepare a list of books to be read and ask them to prepare their books before they come to school. Otherwise, everyone in class has their own desk, books and ink, and I'm not used to mixing them with others. Zhao Changqing said, "Other people's families are not comparable, it is Xiao Lihuaer's family, Xiao Lihuaer is idle and looks for me to read and write, I will teach her some when I have time." Little Pear Blossom wants to learn to write, but it is all on the sand table, and she will never come to borrow my pen and ink. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "As long as these two aunts and uncles are ready, just call the third sister and the fourth sister to come, and our family will pack their lunch for free, just as a relative." ”

Ling Shi smiled, "You can do this well, how about I buy you some paint for painting?" ”

Zhao Changqing immediately came to his senses, patting the little fat chest as a guarantor, "Mother just prepare the silver to buy paint for me." ”

"Come back to me when it's done." Obviously refreshed in his heart, Ling Shi said again, "It's not that I'm stingy as an aunt, you are my own child, and I always have to think about your brothers and sisters first." "Providing for one child to study is completely different from providing for three children, Rao is a small family with small funds, but she is also a person with children, even if she has money, she is more willing to use it on her own children.

Zhao Changqing curled his mouth and said, "I didn't like the third cousin in the first place, she was annoying." ”

Ling touched her head, "Just talk about it at home, don't go out of the way to say it." ”

"I know it."
