Kangkang's washing was over, and it was the birthday of the couple in a few days.

To be honest, Li Bokang wanted to hold a few tables on their birthday this year, but she was still exempted because she was still in confinement.

If the birthday party doesn't appear, it can't be called a birthday party.

This year, when the Yamen was sealed, Li Bokang also issued a decree.

It was the thing she had discussed with him before, so that the people could open up more wasteland.

Originally, the national policy regulations on wasteland reclamation were tax-free for the first three years of newly opened wasteland, but because the soil quality of the wasteland was not good, and the harvest still required a lot of labor, there were not too many people in Miyang to open up the wasteland.

The past two years have been a little better, because they have come up with several methods of manure to increase the fertility of the land, but there are still very few people who choose to go to the wasteland.

Therefore, this year, Li Bokang promulgated a rule that within the last two years, no tax will be collected for the first five years of newly opened wasteland.

He also consulted this decree with the officials in the yamen, and he also sent a letter to the prefect above to explain the situation.

However, there is also a stipulation in his decree, that is, each household shall not open up more than 100 acres of wasteland, and the excess shall be calculated according to the previous decree.

This decree was mainly aimed at the big families in the county, and he couldn't let all the land in the county be occupied by those big families.

Although the taxes in the county are also from those big families on weekdays, there is no chance for the land to be returned to them, which is contrary to his original intention.

Moreover, he also set a time, two years and so on, and as for the two years, the previous one will be restored.

Speaking of which, he doesn't know how long he can be an official in this misty, although he seems to have forgotten hope now, but who knows what will happen in the future.

Let's not talk about whether he can be promoted, let's just say that now, their Miyang has begun to develop, and their vermicelli factory will definitely get better and better.

He can't guarantee that when their county town gets better and better in the future, no one will be jealous, and then transfer him to someone else.

After all, there is one thing he knows very well in his heart, not all officials are like him.

However, it was too early to say this, and all he could do now was just in case.

Although he has not yet seen the effect of this decree, he believes that it will definitely have an effect.

Soon, it was the full moon of Kangkang.

Kangkang was born on the fifth day of the second month, and the full moon will be reached on the fifth day of the third month.

Kangkang's full moon Li Bokang did it, but it didn't do much, that is, he invited some acquaintances.

They have been here for five or six years, and no matter what, there are still some familiar people, although they don't move around often, but there are still some gifts that should be there every year.

As soon as the full moon passed, Kangkang grew very fast, almost every day.

Soon, it was An An's birthday again.

This year, An An is five years old.

Five-year-old An An is also preparing to go to private school.

And the husband and wife have also been looking for a husband for An An for more than a year.

Although the husband and wife had said before, if they could, they would invite a gentleman to come back and give An An enlightenment a lesson at home.

However, because she felt that An An didn't have any friends and couldn't make any friends, she was still ready to send An An to a private school outside to go to school.

She thinks that An An can't be like her, at their age, they should get along with other children of the same age, and they should also make some friends.

can't be like her, basically she doesn't have any friends, except for Li Bokang, there is no one to talk to.

She knows that it's not good for her to be like this, but now she is used to this kind of life, and she won't be used to letting her make friends.

Even Li Bokang doesn't have a few friends who can tell the truth.

And if you want to make friends, you can't stay at home every day and go home to school.

Therefore, she told Li Bokang and asked An An to go to a private school outside to study.

And it just so happened that a gentleman they were optimistic about happened to open a private school in the county, but it was not very far from their home, so it was just right for An An to go to that private school to take classes.

Moreover, not only is the gentleman in that private school good, but they also inquired about the students inside, and the students in it are also very good, otherwise they don't worry about letting An An go there.

As soon as An An's birthday passed, she told Li Bokang about sending him to a private school.

An An already knew about going to private school, after all, they had vaguely revealed this meaning to him before.

It's just that he may not have decided which private school to send him to, so An An quickly accepted the matter of going to a private school.

And, just as she thought, An An himself felt that he didn't have any friends, and he also wanted to go to the private school to see.

Because he knew that he was not the only one in the private school, there were many other students who were about his age, and he might be able to make friends when the time came.

Even if he can't make friends, there are many people who can play with him.

To be honest, he is a little tired of playing with Cheng Yi and them all the time, children like new things.

Therefore, An An still has some faint expectations for going to private school.

At the beginning of August, An An officially went to school in a private school.

This time, he also took Cheng Yi to the private school together.

It is still that she is not at ease, afraid that An An will be bullied in the private school if she is too young.

In the past, when she heard about something like this, she thought it was a little too much, but when it really happened to her, she wouldn't feel it.

What's more, An An is the first time to take a private school, she is afraid that he will not be used to it, she thinks that if there is a familiar person to accompany her, it should be much better.

Therefore, let Cheng Yi go to the private school together in the name of An An's scholar.

At first, when Cheng Yi knew that he was going to go to the private school with the young master, he was still a little surprised, but soon he understood.

However, even so, he was still very happy in his heart, it was really not easy for people like them to go.

At the same time, he also knew in his heart that this was because the lord and his wife valued him, or that the lady took pity on him.

Until now, the reason why he and his sister stayed was because his wife took pity on them and sympathized with them, so she let them stay.

However, he was also glad that although Mrs. kept them because of pity, he would not live up to the love between the master and Mrs. who left their brother and sister.

Whatever they had asked them to stay in the first place, at least their siblings' lives had become much better since they stayed, much better than they had imagined.

And now, the master and his wife also let him go to the private school with the young master, although it was in the name of the scholar, but he still remembered this love.

He thought that if it was possible in the future, he would definitely repay the lord and the lady well.
