Chapter 179: Dinner on a Plate
After everything was done, Chen Qiaoqiao was idle, and the tofu restaurant helped recruit another chef with Chunhua and Qiuhua, basically without her, and hired several juniors, of course, she was not busy. [No pop-ups. Besides, the business of the art gallery in this New Year is not very good, maybe people are still visiting relatives and friends, so they don't have time to come to the art gallery
Chen Qiaoqiao was very happy with her leisure time at the beginning, and she didn't want to be a little crazy after a few days of idleness, and it was sad to have nothing to do, and rice worms were not so easy to do
Alas, Chen Qiaoqiao sighed, could it be that she was born to work hard and couldn't play, but recently the village is so calm that it is dying, even the chickens have not heard of losing one, plus the children have company, Xiaobao is even more angry, as long as she hugs her, she cries earth-shattering. She gave up the idea of being a nanny.
It's good now, I don't have a side hustle to do, and I don't need to do my main job, what should I do?
Fortunately, after the eighth day of the first lunar month, Si Zuo and Si You were going to go to school in Wei Zijin's Open Book Academy, and Chen Qiaoqiao decided to go and get some silver out first in case of emergency. When he arrived at Qianzhuang, Song Zimo was busy, and the capital had been turbulent recently, and the flow of money was great.
"Oh Song Zimo, your business is as always, poor my gallery is almost open this year" Chen Qiaoqiao was full of envy.
Song Zimo saw that it was Chen Qiaoqiao. walked out and said with a smile: "You are greedy, a good art gallery has not stabilized, and what kind of tofu gallery knows that your cooking skills are good, but what you can't take care of is not in vain."
Chen Qiaoqiao's helpless eyes, this is forced to be good, if it weren't for Aunt Xue's to do it, she wouldn't have such a mind. "Okay, I'm here to get the silver," Chen Qiaoqiao took out the silver ticket from her arms, "Alas, you can't make money, this cost is huge, but it's really empty" The sad face was very cute.
Song Zimo's heart moved, "You and that Lord Yin are good women, you still have to find someone who can be entrusted for life."
"Don't mention that person, I'm not related to him, I'm not a person all the way at all" Chen Qiaoqiao was angry when she thought of Yinhuo, after he came back, he didn't say a word, she still had a stomach of questions to ask, what the hell is going on with the jade beggar who didn't hide it, and where is it now
She hasn't asked him yet, he's so unreasonable, this scumbag
Song Zimo's eyes lit up, and he hesitated, "If you are not satisfied with that silver fire, can you think about it and consider me?"
Chen Qiaoqiao's eyes widened, what nonsense did Song Zimo say, was he drunk, "Song Zimo, what kind of nonsense are you talking about, this joke is not funny at all"
Song Zimo suddenly held Chen Qiaoqiao's hand, "Qiaoqiao, I have already had a secret affection for you, I don't believe you don't know at all, but I saw that there is true affection between you and Yinhuo, so I silently put this affection in my heart, but if you really have no intention of Yinhuo, can you think about me?"
Chen Qiaoqiao was completely stunned, although she knew that Song Zimo was special to her, but this sudden confession still frightened her
"Song Zimo, you're crazy, you're crazy" Chen Qiaoqiao hurriedly broke free and ran away.
Song Zimo couldn't help but smile faintly, did he still say it and successfully scare her, he closed his eyes slightly, at least Chen Qiaoqiao knew what was on her mind, even if there was no result, there would be no regrets.
Chen Qiaoqiao escaped far away, only to find that her silver had not been taken out, alas, she still didn't want to see Song Zimo now, anyway, she and Wei Zijin are also old acquaintances, and there is no problem with paying it later. Chen Qiaoqiao went to the mansion first and brought Yue'er with her, Aunt Xue was naturally relieved, Chen Qiaoqiao also walked into the Open Book Academy, not that she was afraid that Wei Zijin would regret it, but she was really bored, and the silver fire often dangled in front of the art gallery intentionally or unintentionally, but she didn't walk in or speak, she was a little annoyed, and this Song Zimo matter also upset herself, Chen Qiaoqiao only knew now, It's not a pleasure to have too many suitors, not to mention it's not bad to see how the ancients read books, maybe you can dissolve the irritability in your heart.
Wei Zijin saw Chen Qiaoqiao coming with the children and coming together, and his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he was so happy to see her
"Today I'm here to accompany the reading, let's see if you have taught our children with your heart, otherwise, you don't want this bundle" Listening to this tone, people who don't know still think that this Chen Qiaoqiao is a shrew
Wei Zijin couldn't ask for it, so he smiled: "Mrs. Chen said that since he is Brother Chen Wei's child, how can I be restrained, I am so guilty about the incident last time, Mrs. Chen should give me a chance to atone for my sins, however, this women's class has just started, and there are not a few people, so let's go to class with the man today" Chen Qiaoqiao knew that he was talking about arrears, but in fact, he really couldn't blame himself, who called him a wonderful wife
Chen Qiaoqiao thinks it is understandable to take classes with men, in fact, from the perspective of education, it should be a combination of men and women, but the thinking of the ancients is absolutely impossible, otherwise there would be no Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai
In fact, Wei Zijin was under great pressure to recruit female students, and the old scholars of his academy were all opposed, and an old master said it even more explicitly, thinking that reading too much and thinking was lively, especially women, who were prone to unstable factors. You don't see, most of the women who run at night are knowledgeable or at least literate and can understand the small notes of dating. Wei Zijin was speechless.
But this academy belongs to Wei Zijin, and he insists on running it, and those people are helpless. Chen Qiaoqiao found a place to sit down and wanted to listen to the lecture quietly. This class is not Wei Zijin's, he is the dean, and he is only responsible for some high-level students, like this, it seems that he doesn't need to go out in person in the preschool at all, but in order to show himself in front of Chen Qiaoqiao, he went into battle himself.
In this class, I learned an ancient poem, that is, the poem of Compassion for Nong, and saw a group of children shaking their heads and reciting them: "At noon on the day of hoeing, sweat drops fall into the soil." Who knows that the food on the plate is hard work. "Wait a minute, wait a minute, what Dongdong himself did not hear wrong, who knows the Chinese food, how do they pronounce it as a meal
Chen Qiaoqiao realized that she had some common sense, and immediately raised her hand and asked: "Wei Fuzi, don't you know the Chinese food on the plate, did you read it wrong" I didn't expect it to be a burst of laughter, and even Xiao Yue'er laughed and said, "Aunt Chen, what's the matter with you, even this poem will be mispronounced" Si Zuo and Si Right bowed their heads even more guiltily, and they were so ashamed that they couldn't do it,
Wei Zijin was kind, "Mrs. Chen, since ancient times, who knows that the panzhong, is the lady who read it wrong" Chen Qiaoqiao was dumbfounded, how could it be that Wei Zijin explained Chen Qiaoqiao to understand that it was her own mistake, the author wrote who knew the panzhong, and later the Chinese characters were simplified, and there was the so-called "elimination of rare words". Although the word 飧 is simpler than the word meal, the word meal is commonly used, and the word 飧 is rare. So the word 飧 was eliminated and the word meal was preserved, so in modern times, everyone reads it as a Chinese food, but the traditional Chinese characters of Hong Kong and Taiwan are still written as 飧
Moreover, there was a difference between meal and meal in ancient times, and meal was only used as a verb and measure word, while meal was a noun.
Now I can be embarrassed, Chen Qiaoqiao scolded her Chinese teacher 10,000 times in her heart, why didn't she tell herself this story, and she wouldn't have such an embarrassment
Chen Qiaoqiao stubbornly said: "The academy in my hometown is all read as a meal" Wei Zijin smiled: "Yes, nowadays, there are indeed some people who don't learn and don't know how to pretend to be masters, and our academy will never use such people, and all the masters in our academy are really talented and learned."
Chen Qiaoqiao laughed and agreed with a smile, it seems that he still doesn't want to express any opinions in the future, who knows what is the difference between ancient and modern
For the first time, Chen Qiaoqiao felt that her knowledge was too insufficient, so she just stayed for a while and went back.
This year's weather is very strange, the New Year is still very hot, but these days are hot for no reason, the old people are worried, suspecting that it is a warning from heaven, I am afraid that there will be some disaster. That night, it was unusually hot and muggy, and it looked like it was going to rain heavily. Sure enough, after a while, the rain was fierce, and the lightning flashed and thundered, which was terrifying.
Early the next morning, someone came to the mansion to report the case, saying that the second master of the Wei family was hacked to death by thunder, and this matter immediately spread all over Kaifeng, everyone said that this god does not open his eyes, and the second master of the Wei family is honest, and only knows to hide in the pharmacy to dispense medicine.
Human life is at stake, and Fu Yin immediately led people to the medicine garden on the muddy road for autopsy and investigation. I saw that the scene was miserable, the tile roof was removed, the beams of the house were split, and the surface of the earthen kang was uncovered. The crowd of onlookers was talking. The corpses were even more horrific.
Bao Fuyin found Chen Qiaoqiao's figure in the crowd of onlookers. It turned out that Chen Qiaoqiao had nothing to do recently, so she took care of the matter of picking up and dropping off the children, and also picked up Yue'er by the way, although this Yue'er was separated from one of the colleges by a wall, but Chen Qiaoqiao's main purpose was to chat with Aunt Xue. She came to the mansion early in the morning and wanted to send Yue'er to the academy, but she didn't want to hear the news that Wei Zijin's uncle was killed by thunder. Chen Qiaoqiao had never seen someone really killed by thunder, so she was curious, and she couldn't hold back even if Aunt Xue said so, so she came to the medicine garden. The second master of Wei's wife, Shi, was crying and grabbing the ground, grief-stricken, crying and crying to seek death, and everyone dissuaded her. Chen Qiaoqiao took a closer look at the scene and felt that things were not so simple.
