Chapter 41 Ethnology

When I got up this morning, the red dates planted on the farm also prompted that they were about to be harvested, and Zhang Xiaoxue planted three more red dates after harvesting the red dates. The fruit of the bread tree is not yet ripe, and it seems that this high-grade crop will take a long time to ripen.

When I got out of the farm, I didn't expect Zhang's mother to get up earlier than Zhang Xiaoxue, and she had already made breakfast, making porridge and potato cakes.

Zhang's mother is spreading pancakes in the yard, and she has already spread a high stack, this may be getting up at dawn, it's really hard.

"Mother, you got up so early today, I see that you have so many pancakes in your stall, you don't have to fight so hard, it will exhaust your body. Zhang Xiaoxue persuaded Zhang's mother to arrive.

"It's okay, my mother is not tired," Zhang's mother kept answering Zhang Xiaoxue in her hand.

Hearing Zhang's mother's answer, Zhang Xiaoxue sighed, and then persuaded again: "Mother, doing business is a long-term thing, you can't be in such a hurry, if you can't do this, you will really exhaust your body." No matter how much money you make, it is not as important as your own body, and if you burn your body, the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Zhang's mother heard her daughter's repeated persuasion, knowing that her daughter felt sorry for herself and didn't want to be too burdened, her daughter cared about herself like this, and she was comforted and happy in her heart.

"Okay, my mother promised Xue'er that she wouldn't exhaust her body, if she was tired, her mother would rest for a while, don't worry. Zhang's mother said to Zhang Xiaoxue with a smile.

"Oh, by the way, today is the sixth day of the Upper Clan. You may not remember this, but you can go to the clan school with your two older brothers later. ”

Mother Zhang thought for a while and said: "Don't be naughty and mischievous like before, and play with a bunch of boys, you are much quieter now than before, and you need to communicate more with the little girls in the clan studies." ”

"Oh! I know, mother, don't worry, how can I be naughty now, by the way, my brothers and I will go to the clan school together, so won't they be able to go to the field with their father today?" Zhang Xiaoxue asked Zhang's mother puzzled.

"My mother said that the sixth is the day to go to the clan school, so how many days do you have to go to the clan study every month?

She also knows the writing here, and she feels that there is no need to learn it again, and she is not interested in poetry, calligraphy, painting, and articles at all.

"Hehe, I know that you are still unwilling to go to clan studies, you can rest assured, you will only go to clan studies for three days a month, and only go to clan studies on the sixth, sixteenth and twenty-sixth of each month, the morning is martial arts class, and the afternoon is literature class. Zhang's mother explained to Zhang Xiaoxue with a smile, knowing that although her daughter had forgotten the past, some habits had not changed, and she still didn't like to go to school.

"Wow, and martial arts classes, do boys and girls have to learn martial arts? I don't remember anything. Zhang Xiaoxue thought in her heart, if the original owner would have any martial arts or the like, then she, an outsider, would not know anything.

In modern times, Zhang Xiaoxue lived alone because she was an orphan, and her friends suggested that she learn taekwondo to defend herself. She did listen to the suggestion and signed up for a taekwondo class, but Zhang Xiaoxue was afraid of pain and suffering, and she didn't learn anything, she just learned to put on a show, and it was okay to scare people.

If Zhang Xiaoxue is allowed to start learning martial arts now, then I really don't dare to think about when I will be able to learn it, Zhang Xiaoxue has not started to learn, and she is already worried.

"Haha! Didn't Cher like to play with boys and boys before, but I don't like it now, I used to let you learn embroidery and clothes with those girls, but you hate learning these things the most. Mother Zhang said to Zhang Xiaoxue with a smile with a teasing look.

"The martial arts class I am talking about is actually just a general term, it includes a lot of classifications, and you can choose which one you like to classify. ”

Zhang's mother continued, "It includes martial arts, mounted archery, clothing making and embroidery. Most of the boys in the village choose the first two, and the girls mostly choose the last two, you used to choose a martial arts class, and you have been yearning for the riding and archery class for a long time, but you didn't learn it because you were not old enough. And for the clothes and embroidery that the girls learned, you don't care. ”

Zhang's mother continued: "In addition to these classes, an hour of physical training in the morning is a must for both boys and girls. ”

"Hehe, I'm not interested in dancing guns and sticks now, and for clothing making and embroidery, I can learn it, otherwise I don't have a choice. ”

Zhang Xiaoxue thought in her heart that she was not interested in dancing guns and sticks now, and she had no other choice, so she could only learn the necessary skills of dressmaking and embroidery.

When Zhang Xiaoxue was in modern times, she also worked in a garment factory, and she did both cutting and sewing, but the ones were all modern clothes.

Some of the clothes worn in this continent are similar to ancient clothes, Zhang Xiaoxue doesn't know it at all, and all of them are hand-sewn here, and there are no sewing machines, but Zhang Xiaoxue has to learn from scratch.

If only I had a sewing machine, I don't need an electric one, even if it's the old-fashioned one that I step on with my feet, it's much faster and easier to make clothes like that.

"Well, girls are going to learn to make clothes and embroidery, and when you grow up and get married, you will also be able to make clothes for your family. Zhang's mother said with certainty, this is all about her daughter's marriage in the future.

"Oh, mother, I'm still so young now, I'm still getting married early, why do I want to do so much, but, don't worry, mother, as long as I study hard, I don't believe that I can't learn well, my daughter must study hard, and she won't embarrass her mother." Zhang Xiaoxue said to Zhang's mother in a coquettish voice.

"Well, my mother believes that my Xue'er will learn well, and my mother is still waiting for her daughter to learn how to make clothes, so that she can make clothes for her mother to wear. Mother Zhang said with a smile.

"Okay, when I learn how to make clothes, I will make a beautiful dress for my mother, so that the people in the village can see my mother wearing clothes made by her daughter, so that they all envy my mother for having a good daughter, okay?"

"Okay, I'll wait. Zhang's mother imagined that she was wearing clothes made by her daughter, and she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

"Hehe, what are you two talking about? Father Zhang came out and saw that both of them were smiling there, so he couldn't help asking.
