Xiaoye Village was not very lucky, the commissioners came down to check the results of the study for the first time, and they were drawn, and the village committee rang, and the big copper bell on the old banyan tree at the entrance of the village was ......

Wormwood looked around, and the whole village, young and old, except for those who couldn't move, probably came out; Some people feel good about themselves, and some people don't have a little bit of confidence...... But the surrounding villagers are full of enthusiasm, and the opportunity is rare, some want to know their own learning progress, and some have nothing to do with their own jokes......

"Then now I'm writing on the blackboard, and my colleague is starting to spot check, who is drawn, who will read, understand?" There, Commissioner A shouted into the horn.

"Understood~" The villagers shouted angrily, and they didn't know if they were full of confidence!

"What's these two?" Commissioner A pointed to "comrade".

"That...... Just count the fifth ...... The gay man...... Yes, that's you...... The one who turns his head around!" Commissioner B casually pointed to his finger.

"Uh...... Schoolmate? Villager A guessed.

Commissioner A wrote two more words: "What about these two?" ”

"Uh...... Same word? "It feels like nothing and nothing at all.

"The first two are comrades, and the last two are classmates." I still learned a little, although I remembered it backwards. It's a pity that the commissioner didn't know that this "word" was not the other "zhi", he only thought that the peasant pronunciation was inaccurate, but he didn't know that this peasant brother was completely dependent on Meng.

……

It's a pity that the brothers and sisters behind don't have such good luck, one hour a day, adults have a lot of things, and their memory is not good, and the result can be imagined - the assessment results are miserable.

Several commissioners have become Guan Gong's face, and this time they came down to inspect several villages, but none of them were ideal, and they felt that the study intensity was not enough and needed to be strengthened.

If you want to improve the cultural quality of the people of the Tang Kingdom, you must cultivate it from an early age, and the best one must have compulsory education, or it is estimated that only a small number of girls can learn knowledge without relying on the patriarchal thinking since ancient times.

But just after the founding of the country, the treasury is too poor, she is now of a low level, and there are no gold coins, and there are few places to help, if there are mountains of gold and silver, it would be good to have a lot of burdens......

Wormwood racked her brains and thought that there was no hope in the system, she could only find it from the root, Ash could search for mountains, the cost was low, and she could afford it at present, from near to far, starting from 100 gold coins, the farther away the more expensive, and she could only pray that there would be good news before the gold coins were spent.

Since she got the system, she found that her luck has also improved, and she really found out that there is no mine in Hongqi Township, but there is one in Hongxing Township next door! Although it is only iron ore, it is better to have a little more income from the treasury than nothing.

"Mother, Xiao Zhi found that there is an iron mine in Hongxing Township, what should I do?" Wormwood took advantage of the fact that there was no one at home and whispered to Ji Lao Niang.

Iron ore? Ji Lao Niang's heart jumped rapidly, took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "Can you be sure?" Not far from us? ”

"It's not very far, about 10 kilometers." Wormwood said according to Ash's prompt.

"10 km?" Ji Lao Niang didn't understand very well.

"It's about 10,000 meters, and it can take two hours to ride a bike."

"That's not far off...... Even if it's not from our township community, but we found it, we can take advantage of it. Ji Lao Niang thought for a while and said, "Let's go, let's go to the secretary." As he spoke, he lifted his feet and walked out.

While chasing Ji Lao Niang, Wormwood hurriedly said, "Is it too anxious to find a secretary?" Shouldn't we go on a field trip first? ”

"I'm not talking about this, you wait a minute, don't talk."

In the village council......

"Is the secretary here? I'm the ...... of Ji's family," Ji Lao Niang shouted at the door.

"Come in...... The secretary is not here, what are you looking for him? "It just so happened that this meeting, only the village chief Ye Hongjun was there, he was the cousin of Ji Lao Niang's mother's family who did not have five suits, and he usually called the family ranking starling, and only called the village chief on formal occasions.

"O village chief! I'm looking for you the same, I want to take a leave tomorrow, my second child forgot his homework at home, and I want to send him over. ”

"Isn't your little sister the same?" Ye Hongjun asked curiously.

"Anyway, it's not a farming job now, I just went to the county seat to buy something, and by the way, I will see my son go."

Ye Hongjun looked at Ji Lao Niang, and didn't find anything wrong, so he said, "Got it."

"Then you can give me a letter of introduction! Wormwood and I are two people. Ji Lao Niang saw that he said yes, but his hand didn't move, so she said in a hurry.

"You! The older you get, the more anxious you become...... "It's just that I didn't react all of a sudden, and I started urging."

"Oh~ to you." After Ye Hongjun stamped the letter of introduction, he handed it to Mrs. Ji.

——————

"Mother, do you know how to ride?" Anyway, I went the next day, and Wormwood checked it first when I had time, and the distance on the navigation was seen to see how to go.

"I haven't learned." Bicycles are not something that ordinary farmers can afford, Xiaoye Village has bicycles at the village secretary's house, and this is still for the convenience of going to the township community for meetings, so he bought them with all his heart.

"I'll buy a bicycle now, let's learn it on the farm, if we learn it, we can take a shortcut tomorrow and ride to the iron mine, it will only take an hour or so."

Ji Lao Niang listened to Wormwood's arrangement and was moved, but the real question was: "We don't know, how can we learn?" ”

On "her" side, almost everyone can ride, and Wormwood thinks that if she practices more, there should be no problem.

Wormwood pulled Ji Lao Niang back to the house: "I'll learn first, and when I learn, I'll teach you." ”

After entering the farm, Ash had already helped buy it, and the "Feige" brand bicycle of this era was parked in the yard.

"Mother, you watch from the side, I'll try first." Wormwood pushes the bicycle to practice on the grass outside, novices practice on the grass, in fact, it is not a good note, but the car can not be taken to the outside to ride, can only practice on the farm grass, of course, the advantage is that now the mountain road conditions outside are very poor, as long as you will be on the grass, riding outside, there is basically no problem.

Ji Lao Niang looked at the bicycle that belonged to "herself", and her heart was excited, she didn't expect that she would also have a bicycle.

As soon as Wormwood got started, it felt like it could be done by itself, but it was just that I hadn't ridden it for a long time and was not proficient.

In this way, wormwood went around the farm a few more times, and after no problem, she began to teach Ji Lao Niang to ride.

Ji Lao Niang held the bicycle with both hands, and her excited mood couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Mother, you just watched me ride, it's not difficult, I'll stabilize you behind, you just take care of the steering wheel yourself."

At night, under the resentful eyes of Father Ji, Mrs. Ji took her pillow and ran to the wormwood house to "sleep".

Under the spirit of Ji Lao Niang's "can't learn, don't sleep", she finally learned before the first half of the night, and she still had time to sleep for a few hours.

In the early morning, the two of them each carried a bamboo basket on their backs, walked out of the village, took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, put on masks, hung the bamboo basket behind the car, and one rode a bicycle, wormwood led the way in front, and Ji Lao Niang went to the mine.

"Ash said, this piece, this piece...... That piece ...... Both are high in iron. Wormwood pointed to a few pieces of ore on the ground.

"Then we will put a few pieces of bamboo baskets and carry them together, and then the convincing power will be higher." As she spoke, Ji Lao Niang picked up the ore and put it in the bamboo basket.

"Alright, almost, let's go...... It shows here that it takes about two hours to ride directly to the county seat, or ride to the nearest road first, and then wait for a passing bus or hitchhiker, about an hour and a half, how to go? ”

"Just ride." Although Ji Lao Niang was very tired, she was still very excited, she felt that she could ride for a long time, and there was no problem.

"Are you still riding? When we returned to the village, there must have been no ox carts, and we had to ride back, so you can't say you can't ride! "Actually, Wormwood saw that her mother was very tired, and she still held on and lied to her.

When she goes home, Ji Lao Niang can stay on the farm, and Wormwood can ride outside by herself.

"Then let's take the car!"

The two rode to the intersection, took the car back to the farm, and carried the bamboo basket while waiting for the bus to the county seat, and hurried up, the two of them each ate two meat buns (both were specially made the night before), drank some spiritual spring, and were lucky, after eating and drinking, a bus came over in a while.

At the gate of the county No. 1 Middle School, Wormwood said to the doorman: "Uncle, my brother's name is Ji Jiayun (Erhu Daimyo), and he is a student in the first (first) class of high school, can my mother and I go in and find him?" Or you can call him out. ”

The old man looked the wormwood lady up and down, left and right, and then said: "There are no special circumstances, outsiders are not allowed to enter, you wait here, I will help you shout." ”

"Thank you, uncle, I'm sorry for your trouble!" Wormwood said, and pulled Ji Lao Niang to stand next to him and wait for the second tiger to come out.

After a while, Erhu ran over and asked anxiously: "Mother, little sister, why are you here, is there something at home?" "Don't blame Erhu for asking so, there are no special circumstances, Ji Lao Niang generally doesn't go to the city, and she doesn't come to the county No. 1 Middle School, for fear of embarrassing her son.

"It's just a little thing, you ask the teacher for two days off, and your sister and I are waiting for you here."

Erhu looked at Ji Lao Niang, then at wormwood, and ran directly to the teacher's office with a puzzled face, and after asking for leave, he ran back to the dormitory, packed up his things, came out and followed the two of them, and went home together.

The miscalculation is that with the two tigers, the bicycle can't be taken out, can't be ridden, and can only walk back.

"Mother, are you tired, do you want to drink some water?" Fortunately, now everyone in the family has a kettle, and they are used to carrying it when they go out, otherwise it will really "change" the water.

"Drink it! I still have it on my side. "It's the same as spiritual spring water. ，

"Brother, do you want it?"

"Drink it! I'm not thirsty. "It's been a long time since I'm away from home, and I'm afraid that I'm drinking it now, and my little sister is thirsty late, so I don't have to drink.

Looking at the unhurried appearance of the mother, he understood that there should be no urgency at home, but he couldn't think of anything that would require him to come back.

If you can't think of it, it's right, such a confidential thing, if Erhu can think of it, he will really become a god.

Look at the sky, since the early hours of the morning, the mother and daughter have been in a hurry, and even have lunch to deal with a few bites, so it is still early to arrive at the village, and there is still time to talk to the twelfth master.
