Chapter 11 You can't teach in vain
Since the pheasant incident, the Liu family has also been in peace for a few days, Luo Ying and the stone are really clean, the life is a little harder, and the only thing that can fill the stomach is the wild mushrooms in the mountains, but there is no need to be beaten and angry, Xiao Shi's mood is also better, Luo Ying will teach him to read and write every day, there is no pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so he uses branches to write and draw on the ground, and he does not teach many words every day, about ten, and Xiao Shi also exudes a fanaticism for learning.
Whenever she saw Xiao Shi sitting on the threshold and writing, Luo Ying always felt that she should be innocent and innocent, but she had to worry about three meals a day.
"Yingzi." Just as Luo Ying was wandering, the village chief came with a pipe in his mouth.
"Grandpa the village chief." Luo Ying shouted, beckoned him to sit down, and poured a glass of water.
"Stone, this is writing?" The village chief saw the stone sitting on the threshold and writing on the ground with a tree branch, so he asked.
"Isn't that nothing? I taught him to read and write, and his family didn't have the money to buy pen and ink, so he could only write and draw on the ground! ”
"Yingzi, did your master teach you how to read?" The village chief asked incredulously.
Luo Ying nodded and said, "Yes, my master has taught me a lot of things. ”
"It's always good to know more words." The village chief felt good from the bottom of his heart, and couldn't help but look at Luo Ying a few times, you must know that in these years, only girls from large families are literate, and there are few literate people in the Zhuang family.
"Grandpa the village chief, is there something wrong with coming here today?" Luo Ying asked.
"Grandpa doesn't hide it from you, recently you came back from picking wild mushrooms in the mountains, and many villagers in the village want to go into the mountains with you, and you also know that everyone in the village is having a hard time......
Luo Ying, the village chief, can fully understand that the economy is underdeveloped in this era, unlike modern society, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, there will always be work and food, there are many people here, there is little land, the production level is low, and people have no employment opportunities.
Therefore, seeing Luo Ying taking Aunt Xiu'e and Grandma Li's family home with wild mushrooms, everyone's eyes were red.
But Aunt Xiu'e and Grandma Li's people in the village can't do anything to them, because they have many relatives, but Luo Ying is different, the two orphans, without the help of relatives, have become the objects of their pinch of hands.
"Grandpa the village chief, there are many varieties of wild mushrooms in the mountains, and if you accidentally eat poisonous mushrooms, you will die, there are so many people in the village, if I teach them all, if someone picks poisonous by mistake, will it depend on me?"
"Na Yingzi, what do you mean ......"
"Grandpa, you also know my situation, I don't know how Shi and I spent this winter this year! So I won't teach you to recognize wild mushrooms in vain, but if someone wants to know which mushrooms are edible mushrooms, give me fifty copper plates, I will tell him, take him up the mountain to pick, of course, if you don't want to spend money, but want to eat wild mushrooms for a change of taste, then use other things to exchange, clothing, oil and salt, grain, vegetables. ”
Luo Ying didn't want to teach, no one could help her, plus Luo Ying's own current situation, after listening to it, the village chief didn't think Luo Ying was stingy, but felt that Luo Ying was very smart and her brain was spinning fast.
Leaving from Luo Ying's house, the village chief told everyone what Luo Ying meant in the village, most people in the village can still understand Luo Ying, but there are a few who think Luo Ying is too stingy, including Orchid and Dayou's daughter-in-law, they think that this wild fungus is in the mountains, that is everyone's, why does Luo Ying have it? I still want to exchange food, I want to make money, but there is no door!
But Luo Ying insisted on not teaching, and they couldn't help it! But how smart a daughter-in-law is! She thought that Ming'er would follow Luo Ying and them into the mountain early in the morning, and when she saw Luo Ying, she would follow her, thinking of this, she hurried home and had a total with her man Liu Dayi, and she felt more and more that this method was feasible.
