"Is there no other way?" A few of the children were worried.

Chen Qiao'e said with a smile: "Don't worry, your father and mother will find a way, what should you do, take care of yourself is to help your father." ”

After a pause, she continued: "We may not be able to go back in a short time, Qingyang, I told Mr. Liu, you will go back tomorrow, and you will eat and live in the school house in the future...... It's that your father and mother are not around, you take care of yourself, and if you have anything, go to your Uncle He. ”

"I know Mother, I'll study hard."

"Don't tire yourself out, you're only ten years old, take your time...... Okay, it's not early, you go to bed first, and you have to get up early tomorrow morning. ”

After Tian Qingyang left, Chen Qiao'e looked at Tian Qingan and Pea again, and the two of them were furious, "Mother, if you have something to say, you look at it like this, I panic!" ”

got a white eye, "What are you panicking about, what did you do badly today?" ”

"Wronged, I went out during dinner, and stayed in the house honestly the rest of the time, I don't believe you ask the eldest sister!"

"Alright, I believe you." Chen Qiao'e said, "Today I brought back the enlightenment book, and tomorrow you and Qingyu will take turns teaching pea literacy, and you can learn needlework with me when you are free!" ”

Tian Qingan flattened his mouth and didn't dare to refute.

"Alright, you can also wash and sleep." Chen Qiao'e said that she rushed over Tian Dazhuang and beckoned, "Come over and I'll change your dressing." ”

……

Before dawn the next day, Tian Qingan woke up.

In the dim light, the mother hung a purse containing broken silver on Tian Qingyang's waist, and whispered that Tian Dazhuang would eat it with a cake in one hand, and the cake in the other hand was baked on the oil lamp.

"Mother, is the eldest brother leaving?"

"Sleep." Chen Qiao'e patted her on the back, but Tian Qingan got up with a grunt, "I'll send it to my eldest brother!" ”

"Then you be quiet, don't wake them up." Chen Qiao'e whispered.

After a while, Tian Qingyang ate the hot baked cakes, and Tian Dazhuang went out to feed the cattle first, and led the ox cart outside the yard.

"Mother, how slow is the ox cart ride, when did you arrive yesterday?" Tian Qingan yawned and accompanied him to the entrance of the village.

"When you get to the town, you will change to the carriage of Zhang Ji Che and Ma Xing." Chen Qiao'e patiently explained, "The ox cart can be temporarily stored in the inn, and most of the people who work in the nearby villages there know ...... Okay, it's almost dawn, you guys hurry up, Da Zhuang, send Qingyang to the school house and come back. ”

"Got it, go back quickly." Tian Dazhuang pulled the reins of the ox in his left hand and waved his right arm.

With a clatter, the ox cart quickly merged with the night.

"Let's go back." Chen Qiao'e said.

……

"Red dates, why don't your father and green beans come out to eat?"

Breakfast began to eat, but Tian Dazhuang and Tian Qingyang did not come, and the old man Tian put down his chopsticks and asked.

This is the first time I've heard Old Man Tian speak, so strange!

Tian Qingan hurriedly put down his chopsticks and stood up, "My father and mother went back to the capital yesterday to see their wrists, and the eldest brother's husband urged him to hurry back to class, so today my father sent the eldest brother back to the capital. ”

"Hmm."

"Aren't you going back, can Qingdou be alone in the capital?" Mrs. Tian asked worriedly.

"Yes, the eldest brother lives in the husband's house and is taken care of." Tian Qingan said lightly.

"Red dates, aren't you leaving?" The second aunt looked up and asked.

"I have to live for a while for the time being, after all, the prices in the capital are so high, my father can't work, and the family has no money."

"Then most of my uncles, since you are not in a hurry to leave, do you also have the work at home-"

"Second daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Tian, who was sitting opposite her, shouted.

This mother-in-law is stupid, is it possible to let two children who have not grown all hair to cook and feed you chickens?

The second aunt reluctantly closed her mouth.

"Eat!" Mrs. Tian glared angrily at the other people watching the excitement at the table.

Tian Qingan sat down and pulled porridge, she had to go to Aunt Chen's to get food later, she had to eat quickly.

……

Tian Dazhuang came back in the evening, "I've seen it, the food in the school house is good, our son is smart, Mr. Liu likes him the most, there will be no problem." ”

But this is the first time Tian Qingyang has left his side, and Chen Qiao'e can't sleep at night.

The next day, I got up with panda eyes, and I got up after eating and sleeping again.

Tian Qingan and Tian Qingyu took turns teaching peas to read.

This is a big challenge for Tian Qingan.

Although she has a memory, she is still a little confused when she sees traditional Chinese characters, but fortunately, the original body does not like to learn, and if she really speaks the chapter, it will be scary.

caused Pea to dislike it, "Second sister, do you recognize it?" I think you might as well learn with me! ”

"Who said I didn't know!" She is in her twenties, and she can't read and write, what a shame!

"You, you, you're back what I taught you!" Chen Qiao'e shook her head, "Okay, I see that you will also learn from Qingyu today!" ”

So, Tian Qingan had another task.

After recognizing the words, write on the ground a few times with a branch, and learn needlework.

Chen Qiao'e doesn't have high requirements for her, well, she has been practicing straight lines for the past two days, and she has also found that she really doesn't have any talent in this area, and she walks crookedly in straight lines...... God knows how serious she is, and she herself feels incredible when she sews it out.

But on the other hand, she is very talented in learning, and when she first learned, she was no different from a pea, and in only two days, she wrote well and quickly overtook peas.

The anxious pea is about to cry, and he has to learn and recite poems by lighting an oil lamp at night.

It's too infuriating to see the second sister's smug appearance every day.

I don't know how to let my brother go.

Tian Qingyu even boasted to the old lady: "If the red date is a younger brother, he will definitely be able to take the top prize, which is faster than what Qingyang learned back then!" ”

Tian Qing touched her nose with peace of mind, not to mention that she had been in school for sixteen years, and her adult soul alone was not comparable to these little children, hey, ashamed!

But she won't say it.

Hee-hee, it's a good feeling to be complimented, and she wants to listen to it for two more days.

As soon as I get busy every day, time flies, and a week passes in the blink of an eye.

This morning, I was eating rice, porridge, pickles, and thick noodles and steamed buns.

A large pot of egg custard, a group of children grabbed her, and she was disgusted, but this is someone else's child, so she can only choose to turn a blind eye.

Just as this breakfast was coming to an end, Tian Lianhua came.

Panting and running to the door, he pushed open the fence gate, picked up the bowl in front of Mrs. Tian, drank the porridge in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and pushed the bowl to Fu Baicao, "But I'm tired to death, and there is porridge, sister-in-law, give me another bowl." ”

Fu Baicao left with the bowl, and Old Man Tian looked at his little girl with concern, "Lianhua, are you in a hurry when you come back early in the morning?" ”

Tian Lianhua remembered what was going on, and quickly stood up and ran to the main table, "Dad, it's not a good thing!" ”
