"Sister-in-law, I either sympathize with them, or I feel uncomfortable." Wang Linxi said with a sullen head, "After more than ten years of hard work, a catastrophe has lost a lot of money, and no one feels good." ”

Liu Shi also smiled, she just realized the taste of having money in her hands and not worrying, if there is a problem in the business now, let her spit out all the silver and continue to live a poor life, then ......

Sympathy is sympathy, remembering what they did to their sister-in-law, Liu stiffened his neck and said: "The disaster from heaven is because the old flower family is not authentic, who can blame it?" ”

"My brother and sister are right." Wang Linxi also understands that the Hua family deserves sympathy this time, but they lost money and didn't think about how to solve it, but they joined forces to deduct pots for their sister-in-law, thinking about holding the sister-in-law's mistakes and letting the sister-in-law give them money to fill the deficit, which was extremely hateful.

Lan Yi sighed, "Second brother, third brother and sister, doing business is a risk, so we must be cautious everywhere, thoughtful, and prevent risks." ”

Liu Shi asked worriedly, "Sister-in-law, how can this water bandit be considered?" ”

Lan Yi asked Wang Linxi, "Second brother, what do you think, is this really a disaster?" ”

Wang Linxi thought about it seriously and shook his head, "It's not all, I don't know much about sailing, but I've also gone out with the boat a few times." The old ship's handle still knows which section of the road is difficult to travel and which section of the road is in trouble. The Hua family has been sailing for more than ten years, and they must also understand the risk of passing through dangerous roads on foggy days, and they must not all be counted on God's blessing. ”

Lan Yi smiled, "The second brother is right, poor people must have something to hate, and sad things must have wrong deeds." In winter, the river is shallow and foggy, and the Hua family must have their reasons for hurrying, but not estimating their own strength and risking their lives is a misconsideration of their behavior. The "Chinese" says that "people seek more and learn more about good and failure, and learn from them", which means that the lessons of others or oneself from past mistakes should be used as a warning to avoid repeating them. Second brother and third brother and sister, you have to think more about why they have an accident, and then further consider what our business should do to avoid such a thing. ”

Lan Yi stopped at the point, Wang Linxi nodded seriously and thought about it seriously.

Liu Shi looked at Lan Yi with little stars in his eyes, "Sister-in-law, you are really knowledgeable, and this little thing can make you say this big string of truths." ”

Lan Yi smiled, her focus was completely wrong, okay!

Liu Shi took Lan Yi's hand, "Sister-in-law, Zhao Xiaopang and his mother followed you to learn to read and write, how did you learn?" ”

Wu ran to his sister-in-law's house when he was free during this time, and everyone in the village knew about learning to read and write with a notebook, and some people also joked about it, Zhao Lao's daughter-in-law also promised that as long as Wu could write a good signboard for her, she would give Wu ten catties of good meat, and Zhao Laoli almost didn't fight with his daughter-in-law for this matter.

"When my sister-in-law was at home, Brother Liangxiu didn't teach less, and my sister-in-law learned it seriously, and now I know a lot of words."

Liu Shi also can't read, she rolled her eyes, "Sister-in-law, I also want to learn to read, do you say it?" At least I can take a pen and write down how much money my family has spent and who has borrowed how much money I have borrowed. In the future, when we go out, we can also recognize the signboard and know which it is. ”

If Liu didn't dare to think about it before, but now that the family is rich, she doesn't have to worry about the money to buy paper and pencils, so she moved her mind.

Lan Yi nodded, "Yes, as long as you want to learn, you can do it." ”

Liu Shi came to the momentum, "En! Erniuniu's father also agrees with me learning words, so I'm afraid that my brain will not be able to remember. But no matter how bad our brains are, they can turn faster than Chubby and her mother, she can remember, what am I afraid of! Sister-in-law, when we are young, we will go to the city for a walk, you help me pick out the brush to use in the roots, I can use it for the second girl if I can't use it. We have money now, and Er Niu Niu can't be blind like my mother. ”

"You don't have to use a good brush, let's go to the grocery store in the Zhoujiacun market and buy it." Lan Yi smiled.

Wang Linxi jumped out of the ox cart, staggered past an ox cart on the road, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, why bother so much. We have ready-made paper and pencil in the grocery store, things are good and cheap, I will bring them back to you next time, Niuniu and her mother also want to learn words, just let the three brothers and sisters learn with the sister-in-law. ”

Lan Yi and Liu looked at each other and smiled, always forgetting that they were also people with shops now.

"Second brother, even if it's our own shop, we have to follow the rules, and we have to keep a good account when we take things, don't be unable to settle the account at the end of the year." Lan Yi admonished.

"Sister-in-law, our own shop, aren't the things our own, why do we still have to keep accounts?" Liu asked curiously.

"Third brother and sister, didn't you just say that you want to learn to read and write down how much money you have spent, and the same is true for the shop, if you take some today, he will take some tomorrow, won't it be a mess? There must be rules for everything, and when the time comes, because who takes more and who takes less opinions, it will affect the business and affect the sentiment badly. Lan Yi patiently explained.

Liu Shi understood this time, "That's the reason, isn't it the saying that brothers have to settle accounts, not to mention our partnership with others." ”

Wang Linxi also nodded. Lan Yi thought for a while and then advised: "Second brother, there will be nothing to do at home after the funeral of my grandmother tomorrow, you talk to Brother Xia and them, pay attention to the transportation safety of the two roads in the recent flood and drought, and focus on safety." The robbers encountered by the Hua family's merchant ship have not been caught, so we have to be careful. ”

"Okay." Wang Linxi nodded, pondering another thing in his heart, "Sister-in-law, I see the righteous learning in the village over there in Dengzhou, not only male babies can go in to learn words, but also female babies can go." I want to talk to Uncle Weiyang, so that the girls can also go to school, sister-in-law, do you say it can be successful? ”

That's a great thing! Lan Yi agreed very much, "The imperial court also issued a document to support this matter, and the second brother will mention it to Uncle Weiyang when he has the opportunity, and it is best to let the female children of the village who are of age go to school in the spring next year." ”

In the eyes of the Da Zhou people, girls are outgoing, and sooner or later they are from other people's families, and they attach much less importance to girls than boys. If girls can also go to school, their status and horizons will naturally be much broader.

Liu naturally also hopes that his daughter will learn to read and write, but this is also very difficult, "There are only a few rooms in our village, if the girls can sit down." If you build a house and invite the master, you will have to let everyone share the money, and you will definitely have to make a lot of trouble. ”

There is no need for Lan Yi this time, Wang Linxi replied directly: "There is not much money for this, building a house can allow each family to work and pay for the materials, and it is enough to make it together." If you ask the master, it will only cost a few taels of silver a year, and then we will discuss how to come out. can make the girl literate, and find a better in-law in the future, everyone understands this truth. ”

Among the many benefits, Lan Yi thought of more. Most of the women in Da Zhou do not have serious names, and if there are more female babies in the family, they are called Da Nizi, Er Nizi, Da Niu Niu, Er Niu Niu or Da Nan, Er Nan, etc., and after getting married, she is called by the names of her husband and children, for example, she is called "Lin Shan's daughter-in-law", "Lan Shi", "Bao'er and his mother", etc., which is really awkward. If women can go to school, at least they can have a name of their own, which is tantamount to a huge social progress. R1152
