"Yes! What can I do? The lieutenant chief also said anxiously

"Uncle Zhang can go to the county school first and ask Zhang Cheng's teacher to see if there is a good teacher to recommend. Yes, we will please, even if it is more expensive. There is also Uncle Zhang can also ask the teacher about some poor students who have passed the Xiucai exam in the county school, if they are willing to come, they can also make money to support themselves and earn money to supplement the family, and secondly, if they teach well, I can also fund him some exam fees, it is not easy for poor students to study, if they give some rewards, they will definitely teach more attentively. Of course, in order not to delay their study, it is best to ask two people to take turns to teach, as for the cost of inviting them, it is also clear to them that one person and a half, for the time being, according to three or two, one or two or five per person, and then increase the salary after teaching well. Keke said his thoughts, and in the end, this invitation to the children of the poor family is more or less paving the way for the future, and the connections are also very important.

After hearing this, the two hurriedly said: "That's good, it's still the Keke girl who is smart!" It's a good method. “

"Uncle will tell me when he finds a good gentleman! I'll discuss some of the issues with him. The problem of finding the teacher was solved, and the two thanked each other again before leaving.

On the way away, the two also praised Keke's intelligence and kindness, and the two discussed that after inviting the teacher, they would gather everyone together, and inform everyone that the children would enter the school, so that the villagers would be happy and happy, and at the same time, let the villagers remember Keke's help to the village, and they would be able to repay better in the future, and if they can't, they should also remember the kindness of the two sisters.

Keke waited for the two to leave, and then told Li Qingwan and Qian about this matter, Li Qingwan didn't have any opinion, Keke was happy, anyway, their money in this village is like this, and it can't be used up for a lifetime, not to mention that they are about to make wine, and they will make money after making wine! Qian sighed Keke's kindness again, but still persuaded: "Keke, this month's paper and ink expenses for Mr. and the children will cost a lot of money, and you will have to save some money in the future." Qian Yuhan shouted: "Sister Keke, I also want to study!" ”

Qian listened and scolded: "Reading is all about male babies, what books do you read?" Stay at home. ”

Keke listened to Qian's words and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I have a number, and I won't use it indiscriminately." After speaking, he said: "This world is unfair to women, why can only men study, and women are not weaker than them, why can't they go to the academy to study!" ”

After hearing this, Qingwan also agreed with Keke's words: "That's it, Keke, you are smarter, smarter than many men." I still remember my grandfather praising you and saying that if you are a man, you will definitely be able to get a top prize! "A pair of honors.

"I don't say this for you to praise me. But Yuhan Yuxin wants to study, I can teach them, even sister-in-law, you can also follow to read and write, I can't say that in the future, our wine will be made, it will sell well, and my sister-in-law will be able to keep an account or something in the future. Keke suggested to Qian, which is also a sincere thought.

"Can I do it? It's so old! Qian was a little moved by what Keke said.

"Sure! Besides, my sister-in-law is only in her twenties, why is she so old! "Qian is only twenty-one years old this year, if you put it in modern times, but you are still in college, it is the age of your prime, and here you are the middle-aged mother of two children." I'll teach you every night for half an hour. “

So every night Qian and Yuhan followed to learn to read and write, Yuxin was too young to learn together for the time being. Because in the past, when Keke studied with Mr., Qingwan was also reading with him, reading books, and it was no problem to recognize words, so now there is no need to learn with Keke. However, in order to join in the fun, Qingwan also followed everyone to practice embroidery in the study and brought Yuxin.

On the second day, everyone got up early in the morning, and after breakfast, the three of them walked to the county seat, and Yuhan took Yuxin to play at home.

Finding the place where she bought grapes yesterday, Qingwan saw the uncle who sold grapes yesterday at a glance, so she pulled Keke forward and said, "Uncle, we are here to buy your grapes again, you have to give us cheaper today!" If it's right, we'll buy more. “

I am very satisfied with Qingwan's words, in business, I studied economics in modern times, my father and brother also run their own companies, and of course I try to maximize my interests without hurting the interests of the other party.

The boss looked at Li Qingwan and said, "The girl is you!" If you have an acquaintance, you will definitely be cheaper! The grape boss looked at Li Qingwan and recognized it at a glance, not because of how she looked, mainly because the sister-in-law who came with her all the way yesterday also had a child, the three of them all the way, Li Qingwan was dressed decently and neatly, but the other eldest sister and the child who came all the way were dressed very shabby, and the three of them were holding a lot of things in their hands, so they were more impressed. I heard that I still want to buy grapes, and I immediately said generously, every day I sell grapes, I will pick some of the best ones to sell aside, and the price is naturally more expensive, and yesterday Li Qingwan bought the best ones that she picked out.

"How much is this?" Pointing to the grapes on the stall, they looked worse than the ones Li Qingwan bought yesterday.

"This is a pound of five cents!" The boss said, "You buy nine dollars for two catties." “

"How many grapes do you have in my uncle's house? We buy a lot, I'm afraid you don't have enough of these in this stall! Keke said as he looked at the grapes on the boss's stall.

"There are still some unpicked at home, and I can still collect 600 catties." The boss said: "If you all want it, I won't be vain, the minimum will be calculated as three cents per catty." The boss said, although every day to pick some good grapes out of the sale of a good price, but not every day can be bought, can not sell out of the fast break, so that all the grapes can be sold at one time, the money will not be much less, and can free up time to farm, in previous years can not sell out a lot of loss, but also delay time to plant.

"How much is a pound of this grape?" I didn't say that I was going to do it soon, but I pointed to the grapes that were all of the better colors in half of the frame and asked.

"This is some of the best I picked, ten pennies a pound." The boss looked at the grapes he had picked out and said

"How many of these grapes can you pick and sell every day?" Keke asked again

"Don't hide it from the girl, this is also to earn a hard money, at most twenty or thirty catties a day, and you have to meet someone as generous as the girl to buy. Sometimes they can't be sold, and these are not much, so they are weighed together according to three pennies and one pound to the girl. "The boss is a simple and honest person.

Keke looked at the only one who sold grapes in the market, and there were several companies selling peaches, plums, and apricots, although there was no comparison, but the prices of other fruits also ranged from two or three to three or four yuan, so that although he was the only one selling grapes, the price was still not expensive. So he said: "Uncle is also a real person, we want all these grapes, including the uncle's family, but there are so many, we are not easy to take, and we have to trouble the uncle to help us send it, our family is also very close to here, and it is only a quarter of an hour to walk!"

"That's right, where can your girl's family move these, the girl will lead the way, I'll just pick it up and send it to the girl!" So he didn't set up a stall anymore, packed up the grapes, picked them on his shoulders and said, "The girl will lead the way, and I'll pick it up for you!"

An old man selling peaches next to him saw that the grape stall was all sold out at once, and beckoned: "Girl, look at my fruit too!" It's also very sweet, and I only picked it this morning! Keke looked at it, although the peaches were not very big, they looked very fresh, and then looked at the uncle who sold peaches, full of silver hair, wrinkles, dark and thin skin, and a pair of hands like dead branches, at first glance, he was a person who had worked for a long time! I suddenly remembered what the poem "Compassion for Nong" described: There is no idle land in the four seas, and the farmers are still starving to death! No matter what era you are, living at the lowest level of society, even if you pay a lot and work hard all day long, you can get very little, especially in the backward era. Without asking about the price, he said, "Then trouble the uncle will weigh me two catties."

After listening to Keke's words, the old man selected some relatively large and reddish peaches from the back basket to weigh, and said while weighing: "Girl, although my peaches look small, they are crisp and sweet!" After weighing, he handed it to Keke and said, "Two catties and six cents!"
