Chapter 65: It's Back
The husband and wife sat in the carriage, and Lian Qiaozhen picked up the five pieces of paper and read them one by one, while listening to Kang Hao explain the meaning of the prompt for the beginning of each place name......
These are the same ideas as her literacy in her previous life.
Moreover, this kind of word, which only has a place name, is far less extensive than the scope of everyday language, and the vocabulary is not enough.
Hmph, Yuan Dongchu is just so capable.
In his previous life, after Yuan Dongchu knew how to read by himself, he said that he thought of a good way to recognize words, so he wrote some daily expressions and asked her to learn from Zhou Cailan.
This time, probably Yuan Dongchu himself didn't recognize all the words, and the letter bureau needed the delivery staff to remember the specific location of the package delivery, so he thought of the same way. It's just that she can't write it herself this time, right? Hence the words written by Qin Xiangru.
Since Yuan Dongchu has limitations in this matter in his life, let's wait to see how she Lian Qiaozhen carries forward the method of quick literacy, so that Kang Hao admires her and the world admires her intelligence.
Back at home in Yishui County, Kang's mother, sister-in-law Kang Xiuer and Kang Hao's third brother Kang Tai were at home.
Probably because of the livelihood is not worried, and the dim sum business is managed by his own family, so although the Kang family knew about it two days ago, they have no feeling for literacy or anything.
Not only did he not think about getting one to try to read or not, but he also scoffed at the five pieces of paper that Kang Hao and his wife got back.
Kang's mother just glanced at the paper on the table and said, "We live in Yishui County, even if we are not familiar with some streets and alleys in Muliang Town, just ask around." This kind of thing with the name of the street written on it is of no use to us at all. ”
Kang Hao's third brother Kang Tai is the youngest in the family, and he is only 11 years old this year.
Now he is a serious person who is studying in the academy, and he doesn't treat it very well: "Our master said that the reader reads the subset of scriptures and history, which is the book of sages. These are only convenient for the people who send them by the letter bureau, and they are not considered to be literate. ”
This made Lian Qiaozhen very depressed, and secretly despised the Kang family's lack of vision.
At the same time, she was secretly determined that after some time, she would get those literacy methods out and show them how fast she could read.
Make an account of their dim sum shop, and they will know how extraordinary she is.
However, what she and Kang Hao saw and heard in Tongzhou Mansion made the Kang family quite interested, and the three of Kang's mother chatted with Kang Hao with relish.
When Lian Qiaozhen opened the burden and took out the gift brought back by Tongzhou, the warm atmosphere reached its peak.
Especially Kang's mother and sister-in-law Kang Xiu'er, when they saw a few boxes of rouge gouache and a few pieces of fabric, their eyes lit up.
Kang's mother also thought as Lian Qiaozhen thought, and first chose a box of rouge and a ruler for her daughter. The rest, which was planned for a long time, was carefully packed.
said that it was to keep the rouge gouache, and when Kang Jin got married, it would be given to his in-laws as a gift, which was decent enough.
The fabric of Tongzhou is also of the same use, with good texture and fresh patterns. Next, they all made clothes for their families, and wore them when they held happy events in the next few days, which is enough to show that the Kang family is also a family that has seen the prosperity of big cities.
Listening to Kang's mother's words, they are all marrying daughters-in-law and doing happy events, and everything makes way for this, and I feel quite angry.
After thinking about it again, it's okay, when Kang Jin marries his daughter-in-law, she can go to Tongzhou with Kang Hao.
At that time, he was in charge of his own house, his own life was managed, and the money he earned was also at his disposal...... When she arrived in Tongzhou, she just made money for herself, and there were many ways for her to make money, and then she would have a lot of silver.
Forget it, it's good to endure for a while.
…………
At the same time, considering the happy event at home, there is also Qin Rui, who met with Kang Hao today.
At the wharf of Muliang Town, Qin Rui folded up the two pieces of paper that had been crumpled, came back to his house in Yanpu Town, and sat down in the study before taking them out to check the details.
Qin Rui quickly grasped the prompting relationship between each entry and the pattern on it, which was nothing to Qin Rui.
But the three poor children were obviously familiar with the words on the paper, and it was also a problem to read them individually.
Is there any trick?
Out of curiosity, Qin Rui, who was born in the book of sages, handed over the two pieces of paper to the housekeeper and asked him to find two illiterate handymen in the mansion, and arranged them like this to read through the contents of the two sheets of paper many times a day.
What surprised Qin Rui was that three days later, these two little guys who were doing rough work really memorized the contents of the two pieces of paper by heart, even if they took a single school exam, they could recognize eighty percent of the characters.
Looking at the handwriting on the paper he took back, Qin Rui had mixed feelings in his heart, he had three sons, but none of them could read.
Especially the eldest son Qin Xiangru, who has a wooden and introverted personality, and has no aura in reading.
Now, with such an enlightening method of literacy, he can be sure that this is by no means something that Qin Xiangru came up with by himself.
Thinking of the letter bureau that has been hotly discussed these days, there are also those two young people named Gu Tiancheng and Yuan Dongchu.
Although his eldest son is a little dumbfounded, he still has the vision to know people, and just by feeling, he decided to follow Gu Tiancheng to do things.
Now it seems that not only Gu Tiancheng is surprising, but the woman named Yuan Dongchu is not ordinary.
Information Bureau...... Qin Rui groaned, not to mention whether you can make money by delivering on behalf of others, if the letter bureau can really be opened, the convenience of information and goods exchange from all over the world is great, and the reputation must be there. I can't say it, Gu Tiancheng's river operation will also get some benefits in it.
It's time to prepare for his son's marriage, Qin Rui thought.
He is still old, and he has no sharpness. I only thought about Shoucheng before, find a daughter-in-law for my son who can support the door, and live a peaceful life.
Now it seems that Jingwen is stronger than him. can decide to follow Gu Tiancheng before he becomes a climate, and he will always have more affection than ordinary subordinates in the future.
That Gu Tiancheng inquired, he was a ruthless person, and he was also fair and righteous.
If you follow such a person and do things conscientiously, you will definitely be able to get more shelter, so that you will not be bullied and have no place to reason.
From this point of view, it is not a good thing to tell him a docile woman from an ordinary family, which can make him more attentive to foreign affairs.
After starting a family, if you have to take care of the livelihood and future of your family, you will be more able to settle down and do things. If he can really accumulate good achievements in hydrology and climate, he will be considered promising.
The family affairs that he didn't plan to do were put on the agenda by Qin Rui and prepared early.
…………
Gu Tiancheng and his party and two boats came back in the second half of seven days.
The return trip is still with the goods, and the unloading place of the goods is Muliang Town.
There were also a couple of letters and two worthless packages.
Accepting these jobs, because there is no momentum that has been done enough by Tongzhou Mansion, and there is no prestige like Hongjiang Shipyard to support the scene, there are few people who please deliver after all.
Letters are not worth a few dollars, and so are packages, and people are prepared to lose them in the spirit of giving it a try.
The two boats docked at the dock of Muliang Town, and naturally no one else would be used for unloading, it was done by Gu Tiancheng and his brothers.
The package has already been divided, and Yishui County will give it to Xiaoman. The rest of the letters were packed and ready to be arranged later.
After unloading the cargo and taking care of the two boats inside and out, Yuan Changhe, Gu Tiancheng and Qin Xiangru were relieved.
Now that it is late autumn, and it is really not early, Gu Tiancheng thought that the father and daughter of the Yuan family had not returned home for nearly twenty days, and the home must be very deserted, so he proposed without waiting for the breakup: "Uncle and Dongchu don't go back to Yanpu Town first, I will help Uncle find a home, and the two of you will rest for a day and then go back." After the break, I also have the energy to tidy up things at home. ”
