On the second day, I slept until I woke up naturally, but it was also quite early, Han Qing simply washed up, pulled Xiang'er and grass, and ran directly at the foot of the mountain around the edge of the mountain for morning exercise.

The matter of making steamed buns was handed over to the Zhou family and the Huang family a few days ago, and these two people helped to make steamed bread for more than two months, but they had no selfishness, and they took the 30 yuan of wages every day. Han Qing considered that Xiang'er and Cao'er were still young, and Liu had to take care of young children, he was a person who liked to enjoy life, and he would never wronged himself if he could enjoy it. A few days ago, when Xiangmanlou sent dividends for the second time, Han Qing decided to hand over all the steamed buns to these two people, and the profits earned were equally shared between the two of them, which could be regarded as a reward for the two families who took care of their family in the past.

Xiang'er and Cao'er ran happily with Han Qing, the air on the side of the mountain in the morning was unusually fresh, this was the most comfortable moment for Han Qing to come to this ancient time, he had been in a hurry, and finally he didn't have to wake up in the morning to run for his livelihood.

After the morning exercise, I took the two little girls home to make some breakfast, and then the family discussed at home how to plant flowers and plants in the yard and what facilities needed to be designed. Liu had long been satisfied with his daughter's ability, but he didn't say anything at this time, Xiang'er and Cao'er begged Han Qing to design a swing and plant all kinds of fruits. Han Qing saw that the two girls rarely opened their mouths to make a request, so they agreed, and designed a wooden slide, which made the two sisters excited and urged Han Qing to find Uncle Guo Shan to customize.

Han Qing designed a slide and a swing in the front yard. On the other side, there are some flowers and plants, a net-like sturdy shelf is planted with vine plants, there are two rows of rocking chairs opposite each other under the shelf, and there is a small tea dish in the middle, if you want to drink tea and read a book here in the afternoon, it is a very good choice. I'm also going to dig a small pond and prepare to raise some fish and some water lilies or something, and I'm quite comfortable teasing the fish or something.

In the back yard, a large piece in the middle is vacant, and if there is something to dry in the future, it may still be used, and then some fruit trees are planted to divide the vegetable garden.

In this way, Han Qing doesn't have to worry about his livelihood, he leisurely designs some fresh things every day and asks someone to make them, and the flowers and plants in the yard are directly dug up by a few people from the hill and transplanted directly, and even the fruit trees are transplanted with the help of the men in the village. They are very careful when digging, so the survival rate is quite high, and once they find something bad, they will replant it.

Another month passed, and after several days of rain, the fruit trees in the backyard were alive, and some of the vegetables in the garden were growing well. The swings, slides, rocking chairs, etc. in the front yard have been made long ago, but because the swing frame and slide are planted with lawns around them, they have not dared to let children step on them.

After the rain, the sky is clear, the air is fresh, it is early autumn, Han Qing sat in the rocking chair and sighed that he had been here for a few months. On the side of the swing frame, Xiang'er and a few friends of the same age in the village were playing happily, and the grass and the good friends on the side of the slide were taking turns on the slide. The days are quite comfortable, and because of such leisure, Han Qing thinks of her daughter, I don't know if the little girl is doing well now?

Han Qing put down the book in his hand, took a sip of tea, and shouted to the children over there: "Children, sister, I have fruit tea and snacks here, come and rest when you are tired of playing!" ”

Cao'er slid down the slide with a 'swoop', and shouted as she ran this way: "Sister, Cao'er wants to drink delicious fruit tea!" "I tripped on the lawn halfway through, and immediately got up and continued to run. It's really a snack, and I'm thinking about delicious food!

"Cao'er, be careful!" A little boy from a village chased after him, and he wanted to come over to help Cao'er, but Cao'er had already quickly got up and ran to Han Qing's side, so he also came over.

All of a sudden, the rocking chairs were full of people, and the children did not occupy any space, and the rocking chairs for three or four people sat on one side of each of the five or six people did not occupy any space. Told Xiang'er to go to the kitchen to pour another big pot of tea and bring a few plates of snacks, and the girls who were good friends with Xiang'er immediately went to help.

After a while, a few plates of dim sum were placed on the small tea table. Han Qing poured a cup of fruit tea for everyone and beckoned everyone to eat.

Cao'er reacted the fastest, took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth: "Sister, the pastries you make are getting better and better, Cao'er loves Sister to death!" ”

Han Qing sneered: "Cao'er's little mouth must have been smeared with honey in the morning, right?" Why is it so sweet? ”

"Eldest sister, Cao'er really loves her eldest sister very much, she really ,,,," blinked her eyes with a serious look.

Han Qing is even more spoiled: "Okay, good, the eldest sister also loves grass very much!" As he spoke, he took a sip of the cup of fruit tea that grass was served.

Cao'er grunted and drank: "Thank you, eldest sister!" ”

The children in the village all looked at the two of them, envious that Cao'er had such a powerful eldest sister who was spoiled, and suddenly forgot to eat the pastry.

Han Qing reacted and beckoned everyone to eat pastries again. The little chubby boy sitting next to Cao'er took a piece of pastry that Cao'er had taken before, and took a bite with a strange face: "Sister Qing'er, this pastry is delicious!" I've been listening to Cao'er talk about how delicious the pastries you make, and I finally ate them today! Hehe! It smells so good! ”

Han Qing smiled: "If you like it, eat more, I made this pastry for the first time today, and I prepared a lot, and there are still in the kitchen!" ”

All of a sudden, the surrounding children were no longer restrained, and they all ate happily, until Xiang'er and the others took out all the pastries and ate them at once, and everyone was reluctant to smash their mouths.

A few older children were quite sensible, and they followed Xiang'er to help clean up the dishes and tea sets, but let Han Qing sit there and tell everyone stories.

After Han Qing finished telling a short story, he saw that these lovely children were completely in a state of curiosity, and asked if anyone had learned to read, and they all shook their heads. Han Qing originally wanted to ask a gentleman to teach Xiang'er and Cao'er to read and write in the past few days, although the two girls also learned a lot with him, but after all, he couldn't stare at them all day long, thinking that if there was a school in the village, the children in the village would benefit, and Xiang'er and Cao'er could also study nearby.

Han Qing asked, "Do you want to go to school and study?" ”

A girl opened her mouth: "Sister Qing'er, girls are not allowed to go to school, only the young lady of a large family will invite her husband to teach her to learn to write at home, and we can't even pay the tuition fee of the ordinary school!" He lowered his head as he spoke.

The fat boy before spoke: "Sister Qing'er, I want to go to school, I want to learn to keep accounts and settle accounts, and when I grow up, I also want to learn from Sister Qing'er to do business, make a lot of money, build such a big house for the family, and honor my father and mother!" ”

"I want to make a lot of money, too!"

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

All of a sudden, a few younger children started to discuss,,,,,,

Han Qing looked at these children: "At any time, if you want to make money or protect your family, you must have enough capital!" As long as you have enough ability, whether you are in business, politics or agriculture when you grow up, you can break out of your own world! The most important thing you should do now is to learn all kinds of knowledge, and having knowledge to broaden your horizons will also be of great help to your future life! ”

The young man outside the courtyard gate nodded slightly: This woman's knowledge is really extraordinary!

Han Qing looked at everyone's thinking and continued: "Sister, let's go and discuss with the old patriarch to see if we can build a school for the people in the village to learn in the open space near the ancestral hall, if we can, we can learn more knowledge in the future, and we won't be blind and illiterate when we go out!" ”

Xiang'er has the most feelings, every time she goes out with Big Eyes, when she sees her eldest sister talking to someone and signing documents, she admires it the most: "Eldest sister, Xiang'er doesn't want to be illiterate!" But the school doesn't let women in, how can this be good? ”

Han Qing smiled: "As long as you are willing to learn, both men and women, young and old, can enter the school, you can divide it into men's classes and women's classes, or divide older girls according to age, so as to avoid damaging your reputation." ”

Xiang'er said excitedly: "That's great! I don't think girls should embroider at home, stay at home, I think it's very happy to go out to do business with my eldest sister and see the world! ”

Several girls who were good friends with Xiang'er were also moved: "Sister Qing'er, if I really can, I also want to learn literacy!" ”

"I want to go too!"

"And me!"

A few younger girls also said: "We want to go too!" ”

Han Qing no longer delayed: "Xiang'er, bring some gifts, let's go visit the old patriarch!" ”

Han Qing took a group of little babies to the old patriarch's house, explained his intentions, and said that if this matter was feasible, he was willing to donate one hundred taels for the construction of the school and other expenses of the school. When the old patriarch heard this, he immediately applauded, the village is too closed and backward, and most of the men, women, and children are illiterate, so it is really for the benefit of the village!

sent someone to find Li Zheng and the village chief, and as soon as the two heard about it, they also strongly supported the matter. Han Qing immediately took a hundred taels of silver tickets and handed them to the old patriarch, and the old clan took the silver tickets and immediately sent people to inform each family that the village would build a school, and those who had spare time would come over to help measure the land.

When the people in the village heard this, they were all excited, and men, women and children came to the ancestral hall to watch and measure the land. Because the land is owned by the village, there is no need to buy the foundation for the school run for the village like the villagers, and only need to explain it in the last paperwork.

In this way, everyone was busy until nightfall, and the land was measured, and all the families talked about at dinner was about this school,,,,,,
