Chapter 9 Intentions
It is the third day of the first month.
After the Spring Festival, Yunwu Village gradually returned to calm, what should the villagers do or what should they do, and on this day, Jing Xi took Gu Yi to Li Zheng's house, but found that Li Zheng seemed to be thinking about something, so that Jing Xi arrived at Li Zheng's house and shouted several times before Li Zheng came back to his senses.
"Girl, is that you? What's the matter with coming to Uncle? After Li Zheng Li Zihao came back to his senses, he immediately beckoned Jing Xi and Gu Yi to sit down in the main house.
"Uncle Lizheng, I did come to you for something. But what kind of problem do you seem to have just encountered? Jing Xi thanked Li Zheng slightly, and then sat down in the second seat, while Gu Yi wanted to stand behind her, but she stopped him and let him sit down in the lower seat.
Only then did I notice that the person standing behind Li Zheng was about 20 years old, with a thin body, obviously, this was not a villager in the village, at least Jing Xi had never seen him.
"That's right, this name is Song Lian, a villager from Songjia Village, Baiyang County, in the north, and he is a showman, but his hometown is covered by heavy snow, and his house has collapsed, and many old people and children in the village have not survived, and he is left alone in his family. Li Zheng still told Jing Xi the reason.
Although Li Zheng knew that Jing Xi's family was capable, he did not force Jing Xi to take in that Xiucai named Song Lian.
Jing Xi's vision is so unique, just by looking at his face, he knows what the village chief said, this Xiucai's situation is basically true, he is not bad, upright, just because of life, Jing Xi just had an idea, and now Song Xiucai's appearance is also a coincidence.
"I see! It just so happens that Uncle Lizheng, or else, the people in the village agreed to let me and my mother settle here, and then my mother left and helped me deal with my mother's death, which made me grateful, I saw that the children of this age in the village have not gone to school, and I also understand that we are far away from the county, and it is difficult for the villagers to afford the cost of children's education. ”
"I believe that many of my brothers and sisters want to read and write, so I asked Master Hu to build a simple private school in the village, and we can ask Mr. Song to teach the children to read and write there."
"As for the pen and ink, I'll figure it out, and Mr. Song, I'll live in the Gu Mansion for the time being, so what do you think?"
"As for Mr. Song, you can build a house next to him when he is building a private school, I will come out with the materials, and the villagers can go to help, and the house will be used as a constraint for our village to invite Mr. Song to teach."
"When Mr. Song's house is built, he will move in again, so that it will be convenient to go to the private school every day."
It's not that Jing Xi can't pay Song Lian's silver, but doing so is a bit overstepping, and it will also make the villagers have the idea that reading is cheap, which will reduce some effects.
Moreover, Jing Xi let Song Lian live temporarily, because she knew that the people who studied in this dynasty were somewhat arrogant, and bluntly said that if he let him live in the Gu Mansion, he would definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart, after all, the most difficult thing is to send people under the fence and look at people's eyes.
It would be much easier for him to build him a separate house in the village, and he could also understand that it was his bondage.
"I can be a teacher in the village, thank you for taking me in, thank you for this young lady." It was Song Lian who spoke, he was ready to be driven away, this thought is not easy for anyone's family, how could he take him in, now this situation is a great luck.
After listening to Jingxi's proposal, Li Zheng also agreed with this idea, but he hadn't made a decision yet, and he had to have a meeting with the villagers. However, this matter is almost a certainty. After all, no one wants to eat in the ground for a lifetime, and if their descendants can have a chance to study, they may also have the opportunity to get ahead and glorify their ancestors in the future, who doesn't want to seize it?
Birds want to fly high first flap their wings, and people want to go up and read first.
This Yunwu Village is too remote, if the children in the village can have the opportunity to go to a private school and have a child talent in the future, then there will be glory on the ancestors, not to mention that this child can be exempted from taxes.
What Li Zheng didn't expect was that in the future Yunwu Village, not only did Tong Shengxiu appear, but also produced a champion in civil and military affairs, and even he himself rose all the way up and achieved a generation of good stories.
"In that case, you let Song Xiucai go to your house to live temporarily, and I will convene the villagers for a meeting, but don't worry, I look at this matter, there is a spectrum!" Li Zheng patted Song Lian on the shoulder and said to Jing Xi.
"Okay, Uncle Zheng there, I'll let Gu Yi take Song Xiucai to my house to settle down first, originally I also wanted to discuss this private school with my uncle, but now I happened to meet it."
Jing Xi had already let the children of Cloud Village study, hoping that they would have a way out in the future, and now Song Lian's arrival just solved a problem for Jing Xi.
After deciding, Jing Xi said goodbye to Li Zheng and took Gu Yi and Song Lian back to Gu's house.
"Miss!" Uncle Zhang saw that his young lady was coming, and immediately opened the door.
It wasn't until he entered the hall that Jing Xi spoke:
"This is Mr. Song Lian Song, who lives in the Gu Mansion for the time being, and will wait for Xinliu to clean up the guest room and let Mr. Song settle down."
"Yes, Miss!" Xinliu received the order and went down to clean up the guest room, as for Song Lian, he was still sitting in the hall, and since he came to the Gu Mansion, Song Lian was a little uncomfortable.
Originally, he only thought it was a better family, but he didn't know until he arrived at the Gu Mansion that this was the young lady of a wealthy family, and he was suddenly a little uncomfortable, and at the same time he was grateful to Jing Xi for letting him settle down temporarily.
Jing Xi also instructed Aunt Zhang to make two warm cotton clothes for Song Lian, and made Song Lian grateful again and again.
After solving Song Lian's problem, Jing Xi went into the backyard to see his younger brothers.
"Ah Heng Ah Yan, my sister is back!" Jing Xi stretched out a finger and let Ah Heng hold it in the palm of his hand, and did not leave his little brother Ah Yan behind.
This is the favorite action of Jing Xi and his younger brothers every day, there is a saying that the baby's cheeks can't be pinched, which will lead to a change in the face shape, whether this statement is true or false, Jing Xi will not want to try.
Newborn babies will basically have some fetal smeg on their heads, medically called vernix fat, but the younger brothers were only a small part of the top of their heads when they were born, and now three months have passed, and the fetal smech on the head has naturally fallen off, and the slender and soft hair has begun to grow, the cheeks are fleshy, and the big eyes have been looking at Jingxi.
Jing Xi let them hold her fingers and play with them. It wasn't until the time came, after Jing Xi fed his younger brothers goat's milk, and watched the younger brothers fall asleep, that he told Aunt Zhang to watch the younger brothers, and she went to prepare for the private school.
It was almost noon, and after Jing Xi had lunch, he called Jiang Wen and prepared to go to the county seat to find Master Hu who built the wine shop last time.
"Jiang Wen, prepare the horse, go to the county." Jing Xi admonished.
This time, he planned to take Gu Yi with him, and only Jiang Wen and the two of them went.
Gu Yi originally wanted to follow, but seeing that the young lady didn't mention him, he was a little disappointed.
Gu Yi is very sticky to Jingxi these days, maybe his original family background is not bad, Gu Yi is different from Xinliu, he is not so restrained, but he is closer to Jingxi.
Seeing this, Jing Xi thought to herself, after all, it's a child, let's be together.
Then, he called out to Gu Yi and asked him to follow.
Hearing this, Gu Yi's loss was swept away, and he was overjoyed.
Suddenly, the fart stepped forward and walked out of the same hand and foot behavior, Jing Xi couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this.
Gu Yi, who heard the young lady's laughter, was a little ashamed, and the roots of his ears were red,
After a while, he regained his composure, secretly tightened his sleeves, and followed Jing Xi to the carriage with a tense face.
After Jiang Wen drove the carriage, he put down the dwarf pier, Jing Xi was not pretentious, and stepped on the dwarf pier and got into the carriage, and Gu Yi also followed into the carriage.
The customs of the Xia Kingdom are open-minded, and there are not so many harsh restrictions, not to mention that Jing Xi and Gu Yi are only a few years old now, but they don't care too much about etiquette.
Jing Xi doesn't have many concepts, she is a person from the future world, she can adapt to life here, she doesn't have to adapt to everything here, Jing Xi just wants to be at ease, and she doesn't want to live a life in a box, it's too tiring.
The three of them left Gu's house and went to the county seat, and half an hour later, Jing Xi and they arrived in the county.
The group was heading straight to the place where Master Hu had last time.
Today, the weather is sunny, since the Spring Festival, the breath of spring has also quietly appeared, in some places the snow has been quietly melting, the effect of snow melting is colder.
Yes, the snow has melted, and the humidity in the air has increased, which makes people feel even more cold and biting, but Jing Xi has cultivation in his body, and he is basically not invaded by cold and heat. Even if she is only allowed to wear summer clothes now, she will not feel too cold to stand it.
Cultivation has obviously changed her physique compared to the previous owner, but these are not known to outsiders.
However, in order to hide people's eyes, she still let Shinyanagi tell her, put on a winter skirt, and a red cape.
In the white world, it looks like a touch of red, and it looks extremely cute.
When Xinliu praised her for being cute, Jingxi's expression suddenly cracked.
She is a dignified young master, heroic and cool, and she was praised as cute by a child? This can damage her majesty, so she tried her best to put on a very powerful expression, and put on a small face, which suddenly made Xinliu even more can't help but want to pinch her own young lady's face, but unfortunately she still didn't dare to stretch out her claws, mainly because of the "majesty" of the young lady.
Jingxi forgot here, now she is only a six-year-old girl, younger than Gu Yi.
At the door of Hu's house.
Master Hu was at his house when he took over the work, and if there was a need for construction, someone would come to the door, and when Jing Xi arrived today, Master Hu happened to be at home, after entering Hu's house.
"Master Hu!" Jing Xi said.
"Miss Gu, a rare guest." When Master Hu saw Jing Xi, he said happily, he was very impressed by Jing Xi, and he made a lot of money from the wine shop last time.
After some discussion, Jing Xi finalized the matter, and agreed to go to Yunwu Village tomorrow to step up work, and strive to build the private school as much as possible.
After saying goodbye to Master Hu, he took Gu Yi all the way to the Drunken Xianju Restaurant, he had come here to eat once before, and Jing Xi had a good impression of this Drunken Xianju.
Speaking of this drunken immortal residence, Jing Xi remembered that when he was a child, he went to its headquarters with his father and mother in the capital, that is, the drunken immortal residence in the capital.
I have the impression that the service of this restaurant is good, of course, it may also be because of their identity, but what is the specific situation, whether the service is really good, and the answer will naturally be revealed when I go to this time.
