Chapter 51 Meetings
The first to stand up was Grandma Sun who was sitting next to Keke, and after she got up, she said: "The chief is right, thanks to Keke, the girls in the village can have this opportunity to learn this, even if the girls in the rich family's family don't have to spend a lot of money to hire a teacher to teach, and the teacher is not in vain." Miss Keke is kind, and she spends some money to let the girls in our village learn, my wife has nothing to repay Keke, and there are still two strengths in the family, and this house must be repaired to make a lot of effort, that is, the girls and children will also thank Keke in the future, remember this feeling, and can't be a white-eyed wolf. ”
Listening to what Grandma Sun took the lead, Li Changsheng smiled with relief, "What my aunt said is true, our farmers are honest, we don't have much money, and we don't have two strengths, my Chunxiang and her two nieces I will definitely send them to the women's school, not to mention more, her two brothers will definitely have to make two efforts every day." ”
Zhang Xingwang on the side also said: "My chrysanthemums will definitely follow." My chrysanthemum these two days with Miss Hui Min to learn to read, back to teach her mother to read, listen to her mother said that the embroidery has made some progress in the past two days, thanks to Cui Mama pointed out miles, the strength we will definitely come out, just this winter month is not busy with anything. ”
After listening to the words of the three of you, Keke stood up after speaking, looked around and said, "Uncles and aunts, good afternoon, grandparents." After saying hello, he continued: "I always wonder: what is the difference between a female baby and a male baby? Why do most people prefer male babies? I still don't understand! Is a female baby lazier than a male baby? No, I see that the girls in the village began to help the family when they were four or five years old, and when they were older, they learned to sew and embroider, and they couldn't hold the needle at a young age, and the ninja insisted on learning when their fingers were punctured, and finally learned to start embroidering a handkerchief, making a purse and selling it to the market for some money to come back to subsidize the family, everyone thinks I'm right? He looked at everyone with a smile.
After listening to Keke's words, everyone thought back in their hearts, especially the aunts and grandmothers who have come over, after this mention, is this indeed the case? When I was young, I began to worry about earning money for my family.
While everyone was still thinking about it, he continued: "Could it be that the female baby eats more than the male baby? When he said this, Keke smiled: "It's not a mile" When he said this, he used the local dialect of the village, and the local dialect that was not particularly proficient made everyone laugh easily. "Actually, I can guess some of what everyone thinks in their hearts, it's nothing more than that the girl is going to get married when she grows up, isn't it your daughter if she gets married? Shouldn't it be that my daughter is going to become someone else's family when she grows up, and she can't stay at home for a few years. Everyone should take advantage of the days when they are still at home to care for them more, so that they can feel more the love of their parents and the tolerance of their brothers and sisters. In this way, even if they get married in the future, they will think more about the good of their parents and family, and those who have a better life will also find ways to help their parents' family, so that the days can be better and better. ”
After saying this, seeing that everyone was silent, Keke continued: "My mother never thought that I was a girl and didn't like me, but loved me very much. It's a pity that my mother's health was not good and she passed away early. If my mother were still alive, she would definitely love me with all her might, and I would definitely make her the happiest mother in the world. After saying the last sentence, he blinked vigorously and said: "The reason why I am willing to help the village is that I feel that everyone is simple and kind in nature, and second, I feel that everyone's life is not easy. But let not let your own girl come to the school, it belongs to each family's own business, Uncle Li is right, no one goes to your house to force your girl to learn. This women's school has been built, and it is only taught free of charge to the girls in our village, and I have to pay the tuition for others who want to come to the girls' school, otherwise I can't afford it. ”
As soon as Keke finished speaking, there was a commotion below, and one of the women stood up and said, "Thank you, Miss Keke! Not only can the boys go to school, but also for the sake of future generations in our village, it will cost you a lot. The babies can have the opportunity to read and write, and they can also learn a craft, so that the babies can have a good way out in the future. I can't teach my family Cui'er anything, the girls' school is open, I will let Cui'er go to school too, I don't expect her to be as smart as Keke you, but in the future, she can recognize a few words, learn a craft, and be looked down upon a few times, which is her blessing. It's just that our farmer really doesn't have anything to thank Keke for you, just like Aunt Sun said, there are still a few strengths, and we must make a lot of effort to repair the house or something. If there is anything you can't do at home, tell your aunt, and your aunt will help you. ”
The people in the village can basically know it now, and Keke said after hearing this: "Then I won't be polite to Sister-in-law He, if my sister-in-law's family is busy, then let Brother Zhang Li help build the school." ”
"If you have time, this school is also a major event in our village, and my family will definitely come." The two of them made up their minds, and later others also expressed their intention to build the school together, and the women's school was built vigorously, and this construction attracted the envy and red eyes of the nearby villages, but no matter how red they were, they were staring. Someone bluntly said that such a good thing has not happened in his village? This makes the people of Fengxiang Village feel that they are one level higher than other villagers, so they are more motivated, and the people who used to be bad for the female baby in the family have now improved a lot, and everyone thinks of what Keke said: The female baby was also born by herself, and if she marries, she will not be her own daughter? Just like Keke said: The girl knows how to read, learns a craft, and lives well when she gets married, and she will think more about the good of her mother's family in the future, and she will also help her mother's family, so that the days can be better and better. And as the chief said, when the girl arrives to say that she is not looked down upon and waiting to be robbed, the girl said that it is a good kiss, and the mother can not say that she can also take advantage ......of some light, and for a while each family has its own ideas, and there is no need to elaborate, only that the status of the girl in the village of Fengxiang Village has improved a lot.
The construction of the school was decided, and since everyone was very supportive of the construction of the girls' school, everyone was willing to contribute, so that the number of people was strong, and the school could be built soon. Due to the large number of people, it was finally decided that the village chief would arrange for people to come in turns every day, so as not to delay the work in his own fields and the construction of the school. Keke arranged Qiaoling's father, Zhao Xingquan, Liu Dagui and Chen Xiangqian took turns to build.
On the way back, Keke said to Qingwan and Huimin: "The reason why I asked you to come with me today is to tell you that although there are many injustices and harshness towards our daughters in this world, we must be good to ourselves, not give up on ourselves, we have to value ourselves and care about ourselves, if you don't care about yourself anymore, who else can care about you?" Moreover, I never think that men are better than us, you are the people around me, first of all, you have to realize for yourself that you can live well without relying on others! ”
After hearing this, Qingwan immediately said: "We don't have to rely on other people now, we are living well now, and it will be even better in the future!" Because Qingwan is very clear about Keke's current ability, Qingwan believes what Keke says.
After hearing this, Hui Min looked at Keke incredulously. Keke also let her watch, they definitely can't accept this kind of idea of their own for a while, they have been born to accept the education of their father at home, their husband when they marry, and their husband and their son when they die, and they live a life of dependence on men all their lives. Hui Min didn't know what to say, she didn't have Miss Keke's ability, so she just said, "I'll work hard!" “
"Very well, I believe you will get better and better!" Keke said.
The construction of the school, except for the first time to draw the design drawings of the house took a few days, and then basically did not care much, just waiting for the acceptance after the repair. In addition to reading and studying, making soap and essential oils every day, the most concerned is Taihe Building, fortunately, the red wine in the restaurant has been selling well, which is also the main source of income for the family now. sighed again: This money was made by himself really fast, I want to come with Qingwan with a few thousand taels, the two of them are definitely enough to live a stable and wealthy life, but in repairing houses, buying land, buying shops, buying people, and various daily expenses, and now with the construction of the girls' school, the money brought has almost been used up in less than half a year, and now the family's expenses are all supported by red wine. But this is not in a hurry, waiting for the poetry conference, his soap essential oil perfume can also earn back a big pot of gold.
Five days later, the poetry contest kicked off after more than two months of preparation.
On this day, the Taihe Building was full, all because of the poetry competition held in the Taihe Building today. Keke wore a well-tailored moon-white robe, and the robe was embroidered with a few elegant pear blossoms by Mama Cui, and the Keke set off was even more delicate and refined. Standing on the platform set up in the middle of the restaurant, sitting above are Dean Wei and the two old masters of Shuren Academy, and on the other side is sitting Wei Jiming, who only learned after Keke's apprenticeship, Wei Jiming is the county commander of Wuyi County, and he has been in office for half a year.
For the sake of Wei Jiming being the county magistrate of Wuyi County, Keke has been entangled for a long time, and the biggest official in Wuyi County has become his senior brother, do you want to admit that she is dressed as a man? In line with the idea of first establishing a good relationship with Wei Jiming, and then finding a time to confess, confessing leniently, so he went to the county government office in men's clothes every once in a while to send something, and swayed around to brush his sense of existence and enhance friendship.
