Chapter 10 Reading and Literacy

"What do you think? In the past few days, thanks to the blessing of your gentleman's sister, your little mouth has been raised, will you not be able to look down on your mother's cooking in the future? Aunt Liu pointed her finger at Zhao Jia's head and scolded with a smile.

"That's okay, my mother's cooking is the best, and I won't get tired of eating it for the rest of my life, hehe"

"This gluttonous girl, I still want your mother to cook for you for a lifetime, she is also a big girl, start learning to cook in a few days, and be bullied at her mother-in-law's house in the future." looked at Zhao Jia, who was still a little baby fat, and said earnestly.

"Mother, you're here again, I don't like to cook, let me do something else, okay? You see that Sister Junjun can't cook, can't she get married? ”

Hey, this little girl, this thing can also be pulled on me, it didn't before, now? Oh...... Not necessarily!

"Then you don't learn to cook, what do you want to learn?" Du Jun also asked Zhao Jia curiously.

"Everything else, as long as it's not cooking!"

Oh!

Du Jun turned his head and said to Aunt Liu: "Auntie, I don't know many people in the village, is there anyone in our village who teaches people to read?" ”

"Why do you want to be literate? How can a girl do that, and she doesn't take the show. ”

"I didn't go to Anxian County to see the shopkeeper of the jewelry store, who was literate and hyphenated, and could manage such a big shop, so I also wanted to learn ......," Du Jun said hesitantly.

My sister didn't want to waste this time, so she complained that she was illiterate! Illiterate! Illiterate! Say the important thing three times. I can only read and understand my own name, in other words, this ancient character and modern simplified Chinese characters are completely two concepts, there are so many strokes, it costs ink, and it costs pen, so it is said that reading is expensive, Du Jun complained madly in his heart.

Aunt Liu thought that it was indeed Du Jun who would marry Xu Xiucai in the future, but she was afraid that people would not look down on her.

Although the two ideas are far apart, they are in harmony when it comes to literacy.

"There are not a few scholars left in our village, either they are studying, or they are going out to work, which is not easy to do."

Aunt Liu thought about it for a while, but she didn't expect that person to be suitable. This is not to blame Aunt Liu, all the people who study in this era are men, and Du Jun is at the age of getting married, so I am afraid that I will tear something else out, which is not good for my reputation

The only suitable one is the uncle of the original owner, who is twenty years old this year, and can't do farm work at home, and has taken the exam several times, and even Xiucai has not been admitted, but the ability to teach people to read and write is still possible, and then I think of the unreasonable mother at home (that is, the milk of the original owner), this mind is also light.

"I don't have high requirements, as long as I can be literate, the tuition fee of our village school, oh, it's a bondage, how much silver?"

"A tael of silver a month."

"Then I'll be out of two, no age limit, the only students are me and Jiajia's sister," Du Jun continued

"Why is it my business?" Zhao Jia, who was doing the mural on the side, was also blinded, and the wind of words turned too fast, like a tornado.

"Of course you, why don't you learn to cook?"

"Sister Jun, you are my own sister, can you not cheat me, okay?" , compared to cooking, or choose to recognize words!

"Then this matter will be troublesome aunt, tell people in the village these days, the conditions are flexible, adults and children do not count", hehe, in order to get rid of illiteracy, my sister is also fighting.

"Okay, I'll go tell someone about this", Aunt Liu patted her chest.

"After finishing reading, there is another question, isn't this a carriage, and a stable has to be made in the yard, and someone has to do this."

"The stables? Then you have to find a carpenter and a bricklayer, the bricklayer will find Lao Ding's house, and the carpenter will find your aunt's house. ”

"Auntie? That aunt? Quickly flipped through the memory, the original owner's father had a sister who married a carpenter in Jinjia Village next door, and she was not bad to the original owner.

"Okay, Auntie has the final say", Du Jun thought about it and said.

After finalizing two things, Du Jun was in a good mood, and the subsequent sentence made Aunt Liu make waves again.
