"Daddy Xu, don't refuse, this contract you signed is also valid for you personally in your lifetime, and it is also for me to feel at ease, isn't it?" Although Yang Xiaotao trusts Xu Yan, she still doesn't want to be sloppy about what she should do.

After Xu Yan hesitated repeatedly, he still signed the agreement.

Yang Xiaotao took a few signed covenants, and the expression on her face was a little lighter, these covenants had already been stamped by the county lord, and there were also signatures from the county lord, so that the moment everyone signed it was already effective.

Soon after this incident, there were eight more restaurants in Xianghe Town, and business was getting better one after another, and the word Yunlai was engraved on the front of the signboards of the restaurants.

Yang Xiaotao's Yunlai Restaurant has gradually returned to normal.

After everything was in order, Yang Xiaotao stole a free time and did not go to Yunlai Restaurant today.

Instead, he carried good wine and a roast chicken to the village chief's house.

When the village chief saw Yang Xiaotao coming, his face was immediately covered with a smile and said, "Xiaotao is here, you came just in time, I just happened to go to you!" ”

The village chief led Yang Xiaotao into the house and asked his daughter-in-law to make good tea that he was reluctant to drink.

"You kid, why do you bring something with you every time you come!" Although the village chief said so, he looked at the good wine brought by Yang Xiaotao, and he still couldn't put it down.

"Village chief, I'm here to discuss something with you." Yang Xiaotao has been thinking about this for a long time, and there is only one way for Le'er to study in a private school.

"If there is anything, you just say it directly, I remember everything you did for Xiaoxi Village! This time, several restaurant owners in the town came to discuss with me, and let our village supply them with ingredients, thanks to you! The village chief's face was full of gratitude.

As the head of a village, under the leadership of Xiaoxi Village, of course he hopes to live more prosperous than other villages, so that he will have more face in front of other village heads.

He is very grateful to Yang Xiaotao for what he has done, not only to reduce the villagers' field rent, but now to provide the villagers with a channel to sell grain and vegetables, these dozens of villagers, every household is farming, there are also chickens, ducks, pigs, grain and vegetables, every year want to sell at a good price, but also a headache, in previous years are their own goods to the town to sell.

Now, with the help of Yang Xiaotao, not only do we have a fixed buyer, but the price is also very reasonable.

Yang Xiaotao was a little embarrassed to be praised, but at that time, she just had a hot brain and added a penny.

"Village chief, I want to build a private school in the village, so that all the children in our village can study?" Yang Xiaotao thought about it for a few days, and thought of such a way, if she built a private school by herself, Le'er could also go in to study.

The village chief listened to Yang Xiaotao's words, and was obviously stunned, "It's not impossible to build a private school, although the conditions of all families in the village are better, but this tuition, I'm afraid it's still very difficult." ”

Yang Xiaotao has actually considered this, for the current village, there are indeed very few people who can go to school, but if everyone raises money together to build a private school, then everyone's children's tuition can be freed, as for the money for Mr., Yang Xiaotao can pay by herself.

"Village chief, I mean, if everyone is willing to contribute a little money to build a private school, wouldn't the children's tuition fees be saved?" Yang Xiaotao said what she thought.

The village's eyes lit up, but it dimmed again and said, "It's not difficult to build a private school, but if you ask Mr., it's a lot of money every year, what should I do with this money?" ”

"This village chief, you can rest assured, please ask Mr. for the fee, I will make up for it, but." Yang Xiaotao said that she wanted to stop talking here.

The village chief hurriedly asked, "But what?" Since Yang Xiaotao is willing to pay this money, he is naturally willing, and now there are relatively few private schools in the village, if they have their own private school in Xiaoxi Village, the meaning will be different.

"This private school is under my name, and I hope that if the girl wants to study, she can also follow it." Yang Xiaotao said politely.

The village chief thought for a while and said, "There shouldn't be any problem with this, but I still have to discuss this matter with everyone, and I also have to inform everyone about raising funds to build a private school." ”

In this way, Yang Xiaotao didn't stay long, asked the village chief to pay more attention to this matter, and then left.

When passing by Aunt Zhao's house, Yang Xiaotao didn't think about it, so she walked in directly.

Aunt Zhao didn't know what she was busy with, and when she saw Yang Xiaotao, she immediately beckoned her to sit down quickly.

Yang Xiaotao saw that Aunt Zhao was holding a piece of red paper in her hand, and asked suspiciously, "Godmother, what is this?" ”

Aunt Zhao said happily: "This is the auspicious day that Mrs. Wang picked for the pillar. ”

Yang Xiaotao was so busy this time that she almost forgot about Brother Zhuzi's marriage, and hurriedly said, "Godmother, have the days been set?" ”

"It's decided, I will be hired on the eighth day of this month, and I will be able to pass on the fifteenth of next month." Speaking of this, the joy on Aunt Zhao's face was self-evident.

"It's decided so soon! Isn't it too rushed? "Yang Xiaotao didn't expect the ancient people to get married so quickly.

"Hurry up, get married early, and the stone in my heart can fall early." Aunt Zhao has been looking forward to Zhuzi getting married for many years, and she can't wait for Ming'er to take Xu Xiaolu over.

"Is the dowry ready?" Yang Xiaotao counted the days, and if she was on the eighth day of the new year, there would be no more than a few days.

"Your godmother is ready!" It was Aunt Zhao who spoke, she was much better, and now she came out for a stroll when she had nothing to do, and the folds on her face were smiling like a flower.

"What's in store?" Yang Xiaotao is very curious, what is the difference between the dowry in ancient times and modern times.

"I didn't prepare anything, just some ordinary gadgets, scissors, copper mirrors, ruyi scales, and the like." Aunt Zhao helped Aunt Zhao sit down and said.

"That's all you can get married? Didn't you say that you would give money? Yang Xiaotao was very puzzled.

"Of course I want the silver, but this is to be given privately, and I have prepared eighty taels of silver." Aunt Zhao felt that eighty taels of silver was already a lot for the Zhuang family, and she wanted to add more, but she was afraid that it would be too dazzling.

Yang Xiaotao thought about it, took out a hundred taels of silver tickets from her arms, put it on the table and said, "Godmother, this is a major event in Brother Zhuzi's life, this is a little bit of my heart, and I will fill in another hundred taels of gift money for Brother Zhuzi." ”

"How can this be done, I originally wanted to add more, but I'm afraid it's too dazzling." Aunt Zhao said and pushed the silver ticket to Yang Xiaotao.

"Godmother, why are you polite to me again, it's just a hundred taels of silver, and it's not a lot of money for me." Yang Xiaotao pretended to be angry.

"You kid, I'm afraid of giving too much silver, but it's too dazzling in the village." Aunt Zhao is embarrassed.

"Grandma Zhao, you said, Brother Zhu has become such a pro once in his life, shouldn't he give more." Yang Xiaotao looked at Aunt Zhao and said.

"You just accept it, this is also Xiao Tao's heart, and this is a major event in this pillar's life, it should be beautiful." Aunt Zhao said with a smile.

Aunt Zhao thinks about it, Yang Xiaotao is right, her son is married once in his life, he should be decent, beautiful, and beautiful, what do you care about others?

"Silver, the godmother has it herself, Xiao Tao's silver..."Saying that, Aunt Zhao still wants to push Yang Xiaotao's silver ticket back, her family is thanks to Xiao Tao, how can she still ask for it now?

"If you don't accept it, I will secretly stuff the silver ticket into the dowry when the time comes, and you don't know." Yang Xiaotao said mischievously.

Aunt Zhao smiled helplessly and shook her head, looking at Yang Xiaotao dotingly, there was nothing she could do about this goddaughter in her heart, but most of them were still grateful.

Seeing Aunt Zhao accept the silver ticket, Yang Xiaotao asked, "Aren't Yan Niu and Brother Zhu at home?" ”

Aunt Zhao smiled and said, "Yan Niu pulled the pillar and went to the town, ready to dress or something." ”

After chatting with Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhao for a while, Yang Xiaotao went back, today is a rare rest day, and she is ready to go back to accompany Le'er.

And Yang Xiaotao's proposal to raise funds to build a private school, under the notice of the village head, once again exploded in Xiaoxi Village.

It has always been the dream of every villager to be able to read their children, although they have been farming for generations, but if their children can also read and gain fame, it is like a dream for these villagers who have been dealing with the fields for generations.

Although some people don't expect their children to really be famous, if they can read a few words, it is also a great thing.

And how much can it cost to build a house for reading, the big guys can make it together, and it's also very easy, and both men and women can go to study, which is not available in other private schools.

So the villagers all agree with it, but there is only one that is against it, and that is the Li family.

Originally, Li Daye also thought that this was a good thing, but when he heard the village chief say that the private school was owned by Yang Xiaotao, he disagreed.

Now the Huang family is taking their daughter Li Xi'er to spread the word everywhere that the money is made up by everyone, so why should the private school go to Yang Xiaotao.

The village chief also said that Yang Xiaotao was willing to bear the money for Mr. Wang, but the Huang family still refused to give up.

This matter gave the village chief a headache, how did these women know how much silver it would cost to ask a gentleman to teach the children to read all the time.

Later, the village chief could only hold a piece of paper and a piece of red ink, and go door to door to ask the consenting people to sign their names.

The village chief explained door-to-door why the private school belonged to Yang Xiaotao, but fortunately, the villagers understood everything very well, and after listening to the explanation, they all agreed.

There is only the Li family, who has always refused to nod.

But Yang Xiaotao didn't know about this matter, she was cooking dinner at home, and the happiest thing was the black sun, like a dog's leg, giving Yang Xiaotao a hand, and the spring buds on the side couldn't help but snicker.

Yang Xiaotao has not been so particular, everyone eats at the same table, which is also very lively.

Yang Xiaotao looked at Qiuluo, who looked old and didn't like to talk next to Chunya, and said, "Qiuluo, do you want to study?" ”

Qiuluo paused for a moment, raised his head sharply, looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "Yes." ”

"Mother, mother, Le'er also wants to study!" Seeing this, Le'er immediately swore an oath of her sense of existence.

"Mother knows, isn't it good to let Qiuluo study with Le'er?" Yang Xiaotao doted on Le'er's cute little head.

"Of course Le'er is willing!" Le'er nodded her little head seriously.

"In a few days, there should be a private school in the village, and when the time comes, why don't you go with Le'er?" Yang Xiaotao smiled and looked at Qiuluo Dao, whose eyes were shining.

"Hmm!" Qiuluo nodded fiercely.
