Chapter Eighty-Six: Reading
Because Ji Miaomiao didn't know how many pears she needed at home, she only heard Mrs. Ji say that she needed to make wine, so she almost moved most of the pears in the mall here.
Brother Ji went to supervise the work, and Ji Liangqing went to the city to buy meat, and even if the rest of these people carried a large enough basket, they really couldn't carry it.
Mrs. Ji pondered for a moment, afraid that someone would come to the field here to tend the crops later, so she proposed:
"Hurry up, everyone, let's hurry up and transport the pears back so that they don't be seen by others."
Now their family is living a good life, and they are jealous of many people, and if they are seen to have so many pears at this juncture, they don't know what pink eye will cause.
As far as their family's current conditions are concerned, this condition is already very eye-catching, if it weren't for the kindness of doing things, I am afraid that they would have been regarded as a thorn in the flesh by others.
The rest of the family also understands this truth, burying their heads in carrying pears, Mrs. Ji just carried a small basket at the beginning, and then she held her granddaughter and stood at the foot of the mountain to see if there were any people around.
Fortunately, God favored, they carried the pears back completely, and no one came here.
Because of Li Cuihua last time, Mrs. Ji didn't dare to put the pears in the yard this time.
The old house here did not have a high courtyard wall, and people outside could see everything clearly, so in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, she asked her sons and daughters-in-law to put the pears into the hall.
"When the eldest and third come back, let them weave some bamboo sheds and cover all the pears."
Mrs. Ji pondered for a moment.
The crowd answered.
Seeing that everyone was tired enough, Mrs. Ji hurriedly asked everyone to eat, and when they ate, everyone's physical strength was better.
Because the pears need to be cleaned and boiled, everyone is busy again after recovery, only the children and Mrs. Ji can sit next to them and rest.
Ji Miaomiao was held in Mrs. Ji's arms and sat under the eaves, watching her brothers frolicking beside her, and Mrs. Ji and her eyes were happy.
After experiencing such a life-or-death event as escaping from the famine, they can still have such peace and tranquility at home, and their hearts are full of happiness and relief.
Mrs. Ji looked down at the lovely Ji Miaomiao in her arms, knowing that if it weren't for such a lucky granddaughter, the family wouldn't know what the fate would be.
The fruit wine brewed this time, the shopkeeper Ye said that the response from Liu Yuanwai was very good, and he didn't know how much silver he could earn for his family.
The new house has already spent all the money they had deposited, and they still need to pinch some silver in their hands.
And the daughters-in-law of the family should also give some pocket money to chew, otherwise it will be inconvenient to buy anything.
… As the head of the family, Mrs. Ji was thinking about housework when she was in a daze, and her eyes unconsciously settled under the big banyan tree in the yard.
After thinking about it for a long time, when I came back to my senses, I saw my little grandson sitting there dipped in water and writing on the stone slab.
In order to facilitate the literacy of the five grandchildren in the family, Mrs. Ji specially asked her sons to move the water tank under the banyan tree and put a stone slab for washing clothes.
It's just for them to get wet and read.
But now Su Xiu'er is busy, and the other four grandsons are laughing and playing on the side, but this little grandson is quietly reviewing and reading next to her.
Thinking of the last time the other four grandsons were playing happily, and the little grandson was reading next to him, Mrs. Ji finally had a trace of deep meaning in her eyes.
As the saying goes, everything is inferior, only reading is high.
If there is a scholar in the family, especially a scholar with a meritorious reputation, when he goes outside, others will look up to him, and no one will dare to make a mistake.
Mrs. Ji has cultivated three sons, and the three sons have no talent for reading, and now the family has some surplus silver, if any of the grandchildren like to read, their family can also provide for it.
If you can get some fame or something, your little granddaughter will be able to rise in the future and marry a good family.
Yes, Mrs. Ji is still planning for her baby granddaughter in her heart.
The little granddaughter's ability can really blind others, but it is also a crime to say it.
can only let the people in the family raise the level as much as possible, and their little granddaughter can live a good life in the future.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Ji raised her voice and said:
"Shiliang, you come over here!"
She beckoned as she spoke.
Ji Shiliang heard Mrs. Ji's voice, and subconsciously turned his head to look under the eaves.
Last time, he was scolded by his own milk, and there was still a shadow in his heart.
But the admiration for his grandmother still overcame these, he hesitated for a moment, walked to Mrs. Ji's side and said obediently: "Milk." ”
"Hey, good grandson!" Mrs. Ji touched his head:
"Why don't you play with your brother?"
As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at the four who were playing crazy next to her.
Ji Shiliang shook his head, "I don't like to play like that, I like to read quietly alone." ”
Seeing this, Ji Miaomiao also guessed what Mrs. Ji was thinking.
Sure enough, Mrs. Ji's eyes flashed when she heard this: "Shiliang, do you like to read and read very much?" ”
Ji Shiliang nodded honestly, if this honest and down-to-earth energy is placed in modern times, there must be many teachers who like it.
"When my aunt taught us to read before, I was very fond of reading and I remember it best, and now when my aunt is occasionally busy, I will also review the words she taught me to recognize."
He added.
Mrs. Ji suddenly laughed, and she touched Ji Shiliang's head again:
"Good boy, worthy of being my grandson, it's a good thing to be literate, how many people want to be literate! Then you can go over there and read and read, and the milk won't bother you. ”
Ji Shiliang nodded, and really ran to the side of the banyan tree to dip in water and write seriously.
At dinner in the evening, Su Xiu'er didn't know what Mrs. Ji told her, so she specifically asked Ji Shiliang how she remembered, and Ji Shiliang answered like a fluent, and Su Xiu'er nodded again and again with that seriousness.
"Yes, our worldly people are very smart, if we are willing to be serious, we will definitely be above me in the future."
Su Xiu'er's father, as a showman, has no son, so he regards his daughter as the only person to inherit the mantle, and gives all his knowledge to his daughter.
However, Su Xiu'er has no talent, so she can only rely on diligence to barely learn some fur.
Usually those words are memorized by her thousands of times, but Ji Shiliang only needs to dip in water and write a few times to remember them clearly, this talent is rare in the peasant family.
She looked appreciative and nodded quietly at Mrs. Ji.
The corners of Mrs. Ji's lips hooked slightly, and after listening to her son and daughter-in-law report what happened today, she put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"I think our family Shiliang is very talented in reading, so it's better to go to the village chief's house and ask for advice on how to study at that time."
