When Huang Yuan taught Xiaoshun, Daddy Huang sat aside and held his breath and didn't dare to squeak.

When he made the arrangement, Xiao Shun took a book and went to read it under the tree next to him, and then he asked in a low voice: "Yuan'er, how is Xiao Shun?" It was usually taught to him by the cuckoo, but did he learn something? ”

Huang Yuan nodded and said, "Grandpa, the second sister can't lose to me, and Xiaoshun learns very well." When I was his age, I didn't read as much as he did. He doesn't study all day, but also helps the family, which is really rare! ”

Daddy Huang listened to it and said in disbelief: "Really? ”

Huang Yuan chuckled and said, "What do I coax grandpa to do!" ”

Daddy Huang had nothing to say, happy and sighed.

Aunt Huang came back with soy milk, filled two bowls, and let Huang Yuan and Xiaoshun drink it.

I drank soy milk, brought bean curd, and drizzled some chutney sauce on top.

After Huang Yuan tasted it, he even said yes and sighed: "In my opinion, it is because the water in this mountain is good, and this taste is more delicate and sweet than other places." ”

Aunt Huang smiled from ear to ear and let Huang Yuan eat here at noon.

Huang Yuan said: "Tonight the forest is shouting for dinner, and I can't eat much in a day." It's hot at noon, and it's busy, grandma don't bother. When I'm free, I'll come back for dinner. If you want to come every day after tomorrow, grandma doesn't have to remember it. ”

Aunt Huang "belched" and obeyed her grandson.

Speaking of the Lin family, Father Huang looked at Huang Yuan and Xiaoshun and secretly thought to himself: These two grandsons will definitely have a future in the future, and it would be even better if Du Juan also married a good family. Lin Chun is going to Fucheng to study, and he has a great future in the future......

He said to Huang Yuan: "Du Juan has been dating Lin Chun since he was a child. I wasn't very happy about it, and I made a few fights. Now I've seen it too, and I don't care. Whatever your parents do. It's not bad to say that Chun'er is not bad......"

Huang Yuan was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "I'll talk about the second sister's matter later." Don't be in a hurry. ”

Seeing him like this, Aunt Huang glanced at Father Huang. are all suspicious.

Father Huang thought about it a lot, and felt that his grandson knew many young masters and talents, and maybe he had other plans for Du Juan. Suddenly, a figure flashed in front of him, with more extravagant hopes, and he hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Yuan'er, ...... that young master Zhan?"

Seeing his expression, Huang Yuan knew that he had misunderstood, so he hurriedly said, "Grandpa, the matter of the second sister." I don't have to rush. Grandpa, grandma, I still have something I want to tell the second elder: it's the matter of the children of relatives coming to school, and I can't talk about it all, so let's take one or two. My uncle's family and my family are all in a tight situation, and even Xiaoshun and Huang Li are working, so it is really not appropriate to get many people to come, which will only increase the burden. ”

Aunt Huang changed her face when she heard this, and said, "Your uncle and grandfather have many grandchildren. Don't talk about the big ones. Those who are small, if you want one and don't want one, doesn't that offend people? ”

Huang Yuan sighed and asked rhetorically, "If he has ten." Shall we also collect ten? There are twenty, and twenty are received? So we can't do it ourselves? It doesn't make sense! ”

Aunt Huang hurriedly said: "There are not so many ......"

Huang Yuandao: "Five or six is also a lot. ”

While helping her to sit down beside her, he whispered, "Grandma." Let them make their own decisions and send whoever they want. My family doesn't have a place to live. Grandma is not very spacious: Xiaobao's brother is about to get married, and Xiaoshun has to live in a room by himself when he studies. Grandma is so old. Cooking a big family's meal, plus laundry and housework, is already very tired, add a few more people, not to mention that grandchildren can't bear it, uncle and grandfather can bear it? In the past, when I was in the Yang family, even the subordinates were not so tired. Let's stop meddling! ”

Then, he cited all the hardships of the farmer and strongly persuaded the two elders.

Father Huang and Aunt Huang's faces changed uncertainly, but they couldn't make up their minds.

Without him, you can't pull your face!

However, when the grandson told them this alone behind his back, apparently he did not want to argue with them in front of them, and to make them understand his intentions: he was not in favor of having many people come to the house.

The old couple thought about it again and again, and reluctantly nodded in agreement.

It's just that Aunt Huang's heart is heavy, and she doesn't know how to face her mother's family.

When the sun was high, Huang Lao Er and the others came back to eat, and saw Huang Yuan sitting under the tree telling Xiaoshun a book, his father cleaning the pig pen, picking pig manure, and chopping pigweed, while the big girl was already serving the meal, and couldn't help but smile.

Aunt Feng felt that these days were very busy, especially the way Xiaoshun was reading, which made her feel comfortable.

Huang Yuan had breakfast in the old house, and then took Xiaobao Xiaoshun to the private school. From today on, the private school began to recruit students, and many chores were done by his brothers to help, and Lin Chun and Sister Du Juan were even more responsible.

In just one day, the private school accepted 60 students.

With the help of Lin Chun, Huang Yuan questioned each student on the spot, and divided them into three classes according to their age, qualifications, and literacy; Huang Xiaobao and Xiaoshun distributed books, pens, paper, and inkstones.

Sister Cuckoo sat at home: Cuckoo sat under the peach tree, registering the register, writing receipts, and using this receipt the students went to the private school to get books, paper and pencils; Huang Li specially registers the list of arrears; Huang Que charged a fee and guided everyone to pile up the materials sent everywhere.

In the evening, the registration stopped.

Huang Que'er came over and asked, "No?" ”

Cuckoo nodded and said, "It's gone." A total of sixty-two people were received. ”

Huang Li flipped through the roster, counted it, and said, "There are more than twenty arrears." ”

Du Juan said: "People don't want to owe debts. It's because I don't take anything from people, so I ask them to come in another place. ”

Some people are poor, but they bring the only chickens and food they have in the house. The cuckoo explained to them that it was okay not to make life difficult at home, and that it was okay to replace it with something else; If you really can't do it, you can help the Huang family work. The visitor was overjoyed, put his handprint on the IOU, and took the things away.

Huang Que'er looked at the list written by Huang Li and said, "Don't charge this money for the widow's son's bundle and book fees." ”

The cuckoo nodded and said, "I told her not to accept it." She refused, and asked me for the size of my brother's shoes, saying that she would help him make a few pairs of shoes. I think it's not difficult for her to make shoes, but how can there be so many needlework fabrics? I found a lot of rags for her to dip the soles of her shoes, and also took a large piece of blue cloth to make the uppers of her shoes. ”

Huang Que'er said sympathetically: "She wants to be very strong, and she doesn't want to owe favors." ”

The cuckoo nodded and asked, "How much wood did you collect?" ”

Huang Que'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Come and take a look." ”

The three sisters came to the backyard together, and saw that dozens of logs were stacked at the base of the west wall, the thickest of which was two feet in diameter, and almost occupied the path between the vegetable patch; There is another pile of stones, piled up on the head of the vegetable field, and I can't help but be happy and worried. The good news is that there is more money in the family, and there is no shortage of all kinds of materials; The worry is that there are all kinds of these things, and you have to find a place to store them, and you have to think about how to deal with them.

Alas, none of the meals are delicious!

Of course, there are also conveniences, for example, they didn't work in the field today, because there are three or four more people in the field to help with the work, and they all use labor to compensate for the constraints of their children and grandchildren.

Thinking about it, the cuckoo couldn't help but laugh out loud-

This is truly an unprecedented way to run a school!

"Laughing at what?"

Huang Yuan walked over and asked.

The cuckoo smiled: "It's really a loss to you, our family has become a rich man in one day." ”

Huang Yuan couldn't help laughing, feeling that he could make some contributions to his family, and his heart was a lot more relaxed, and he asked, "Can you use these things?" ”

Huang Li said: "Yes! But it's still a hassle......"

Huang Yuan hurriedly said: "What else is there to trouble people?" We came ourselves. ”

"Yourself?" The cuckoo rolled his eyes and smiled at the pile of stones, "Yes." Please ask Young Master Huang to move a few stone slabs over and pave them on this road. In this way, when it rains, we come to the back garden to pick vegetables, so we don't have to step on our shoes and mud. ”

Huang Yuan looked at her and couldn't do anything.

When the cuckoo and the yellow bird saw his embarrassment, they laughed together, and the yellow bird also pursed their lips and smiled.

Huang Yuan said stupidly: "You treat Xiucai as a soldier, and you don't use people properly!" ”

"Who is misemploying people?"

With the words, Lin Chun strode over.

Du Juan glanced at Huang Yuan and told him what had just happened.

Lin Chun rolled up his sleeves a few times, leaned over and picked up a stone slab, and walked over easily. After putting it down, go back and move the second piece. While he was busy, he said to the cuckoo: "This wood can't be put in the rain, you have to find a place to store it." The place where it is put has to be ventilated so that it can be dried......"

Huang Li and Huang Que were already bowing their heads and snickering.

Huang Yuan said to Du Juan: "You are deliberate, meaning that I am useless?" ”

The cuckoo smiled: "I'm telling you: an inch is long!" ”

Huang Yuan pointed at Lin Chun and said, "Does he have 'shortcomings'?" ”

Cuckoo smiled: "Don't talk about whether he has any shortcomings, you just have many strengths." ”

Because the path in the front yard was already paved with stones, Lin Chun only moved four or five stone slabs to connect with the front road.

He clapped his hands and smiled at Huang Yuan: "When you were in Yuanmengzhai, didn't I also watch you busy, and I couldn't intervene at all?" You can't do everything in this world. Let's go, let's eat. My uncle called ten catties to urge it. ”

Huang Li said enviously: "My brother goes to the banquet every day. I picked up several more today. ”

Huang Yuan smiled and asked, "Are you going?" I'll take you. ”

While looking at the cuckoo and the yellow finch.

The cuckoo shook his hand and said, "We're not going." Such a big girl, what does it look like to go with her? Go quickly. Don't make a fuss too late, Lin Chun will have to hurry tomorrow morning. ”

The two of them had just gone side by side.

Sister Cuckoo returned to the front, and saw that there were many things stuffed in the hall, and they all complained sweetly, "Where to put so many things!" ”

So he carefully cleaned up, and separated the orioles to cook, and had to serve the returning livestock, and waited for the chickens to enter the cage, and then cleaned the courtyard, and was busy until the father and mother returned.

After dinner, the three sisters helped Huang Yuan pack her luggage and the house.

The books brought by Huang Yuan still did not move because there were no bookcases; The water blue curtains and drapery are cut out, and the edges are sewn and then hung up; The cuckoo also said that there was an arhat bed in their room, so give the single couch to his younger brother, who could rest crookedly when he was tired of studying, so he also carried it over.

After a busy time, the cuckoo retreated to the door, and took a look at the layout of the whole house, feeling that it was still monotonous, so he brought a few small ornaments and bonsai from their room.

While they were fiddling, Huang Yuan and Lin Chun came back. (To be continued......)
