Chapter 28: Apprenticeship (2)
Wen Bo and Wen Hao gave Mr. Zhou an apprenticeship ceremony, and they were officially regarded as Mr. Zhou's students. After handing over the bundles, Mr. Zhou also asked Wenbo and Wenhao to come to class the next day.
After sitting for a while, Li Xin took his two younger brothers and left. Previously, Shopkeeper Sun said that the scale of the academy was not large, and he had never seen it with his own eyes, but Li Xin couldn't imagine that it was so small. But then I figured it out, in this era, many people have a lot of children, and it's good to be able to feed and grow up, and many families have always been hungry and full. Life is still difficult, where will the children go to school.
Moreover, the children in the family can help the family work at about ten years old, and sending them to school not only cannot help the family, but also have to be bound, and many families are unwilling.
So going to school is already a luxury in a small town like Sanshi Town. Besides, the people who can go to school are boys, and girls have no hope at all.
In this world, it is very particular about "men and women have no seat at the age of seven", and no parent will send a girl to study with a boy. After all kinds of analysis, the scale of the academy in this era naturally cannot be compared with the school in the previous life.
However, the size of the academy is too small, which still makes Li Xin feel a little difficult, in his previous life, there was a canteen in the school, and it was very convenient to eat. However, there is no cafeteria in the academy, which means that Wenbo and Wenhao have become a problem. Originally, the two of them lived alone in the town, and she was a little uneasy, if there was no one to take care of them on weekdays, she didn't know how to live her life!
Wenbo actually knows how to make food, but it will only make very simple ones, such as boiling soup and porridge, but you can't always let them eat like this!
When he arrived at the house in the town, Li Xin had been thinking about these questions. Yuexiang can cook, but she can't stay to take care of the Wenbo brothers, otherwise Yueting will have no one to take with her. And herself, there are still a lot of things to do at home! Just a few acres of land at home is enough for her to be busy, and she is only busy on weekdays, if it is time to farm busy, she must hire someone to help, where does she have time to take Yueting!
"Eldest sister, the eldest brother and the second brother are going to the academy, aren't you happy?" Back at home, Yuexiang saw that her eldest sister always thought about something and didn't know anything, as if she had been like this since she came out of the academy, and she didn't know if she was unhappy, so she asked cautiously.
"How could I not be happy that they could go to school! It's just that the two of them live here alone, and I'm a little worried. And there is no place to eat in the academy, so I don't know where to let them eat! Li Xin pulled Yuexiang and hugged her in his arms. A little girl who is only seven years old, if she was in her previous life, she was still coquettish in the arms of her relatives! But Yuexiang is well-behaved and distressing, although she has a soft temperament, but the housework is very good, and she is very diligent, and she has to help with everything she does. Li Xin can't remember what she looked like when she was seven years old, but it is conceivable that she was favored by her grandparents at that time, and she was definitely not as sensible and obedient as Yuexiang.
"It turns out that the eldest sister is annoying this!" Wen Hao suddenly jumped out from behind Li Xin, which scared Li Xin. Li Xin glared at him and poked his forehead with his finger. "What are you sneaking around hiding behind?"
"It's not like I'm hiding! Obviously, the eldest sister has been in a daze, and she didn't see me coming. The eldest sister doesn't have to worry, isn't there a lot of food to sell on the street? My eldest brother and I can just eat a little bit of it. ”
"You two boys live here alone, and I'm really a little worried. Especially you! will not take care of themselves. Li Xin is really worried about Wenbo and Wen Hao, since she came to this world, she has never been separated from her younger siblings at home, and suddenly she is going to live separately, and she really has some bad feelings in her heart. Moreover, in the future, Wenbo and Wenhao will go to the academy, and the time to meet will be less and less.
The current academy is not two days a week like in the previous life, but a ten-day vacation, that is, a cycle of ten days, nine days of classes, and then one day off. She was really uneasy about letting the two of them live in the town alone. The two of them are too young, and it's not the time they should be.
"Don't be afraid, eldest sister, I'm a man! Besides, didn't the eldest sister give me martial arts? I'll protect Big Brother. Wen Hao raised his fist as he spoke, looking like I was very strong, but it made Li Xin laugh.
"Protect the eldest brother! Don't go around causing trouble, and I'll be thankful. I tell you, don't always show it off as you are now. Since you have already started to learn kung fu, you must practice some in the future, otherwise you will slowly become rusty. When I didn't give you a new move, you just got a good grasp of the old move, you know? ”
"Sister, don't worry! I'll practice well. ”
"That's good, also, I taught you martial arts so that you can protect yourself, you can't bully people in the academy just because you know how to do it a few times." Although Wen Hao is also well-behaved, he is much more out-of-tact than the children in the family, and he is also very bold, she is really worried that he will fight with others if he disagrees.
"What if someone else wants to do it? Can I just call back? ”
"If it's really someone else who does it first, you will naturally fight back in order to protect yourself. But also know the measure, don't overdo it. And your temper should also be retracted, and resolutely don't fight when you can. If you let me know you're causing trouble in the academy, see if I don't open your ass. ”
"I'm not going to get in trouble." Wen Hao assured with a firm face.
Early the next morning, Li Xin took Wenbo and Wenhao to the academy. When she arrived at the gate of the academy, she did not go in again, but let them go in by themselves.
"I'm going to take Yuexiang and Yueting back to the village later, you two have to take care of yourselves. I'll keep the keys in the house at Shopkeeper Sun, and you two will pick them up after school. You still have to put the money away, if it's not enough, go to the shopkeeper Sun, ask him to talk to the buddy, and bring me a message. "The pumpkins are still being sold, so the guys from Pinxiangge will go back to Li Xin's house in a few days.
"We will take care of ourselves, and the eldest sister and her younger sisters should be careful at home." Wenbo was a little reluctant.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about it at home, as long as I have time, I will bring Yuexiang and Yueting to see you. Also, I will talk to Shopkeeper Sun, you go to Pinxiangge to eat every day, what do you want to eat, you yourself and Shopkeeper Sun, I will go to settle the bill at the end of the month. After explaining in detail, Li Xin saw that it was not too early, so she let the two of them go into the academy, and when she saw the two of them enter, she also went back
