291: Birthday
Compared with the gifts given by a few little babies, the gifts that Han Shuxian and Yu Silian took out after carrying Han Qiulu to the Mo family were much more valuable.
Yu Silian, Mo Tingyu, and Song Nanzhi thought the same, they all wanted to save some things for Mo Ziyun, the girl's dowry was saved from a young age, and it would be more generous until the day of marriage, so this time she gave a jade pendant, although it was just a jade pendant, but the jade was in good condition, and the workmanship was exquisite, and the price was not cheap.
Han Shuxian didn't have to send it, but who made this goddaughter too likable, knowing that she liked to read, he gave her a set of travelogue books, this set of travelogues is not easy to buy on the market, or Xie Wenhua helped find it.
There are gifts to receive, and there are sumptuous meals, not only Mo Ziyun is happy to eat, but even Song Nanzhi and Mo Tingyu are also so happy that they can't keep their mouths together, this is the most decent birthday that their granddaughter has had since she came to the house.
Just after lunch, two carriages came to the village, and the carriage drove directly to the gate of the Han family's courtyard.
"Where's your lord?" Xie Wenhua asked after getting out of the carriage.
"The master is at Master Mo's house, today's birthday of Miss Wanyun, the lord and the wife, as well as the son and the young lady, are all gone, but they should come back in a while."
After the next person's words, Xie Wenhua knew that today was Mo Ziyun's birthday, but this time he was all in the village, and it was too late to prepare a birthday gift, so he reached out to his waist, groped for the jade pendant hanging on his waist, and then said, "It's really a coincidence, I'm going to join in the fun."
After a sentence, he said to his subordinates: "The things in the carriage are all books for your master's school, you look at it, I'll go to Mo's house first."
"I'll take Master Xie there."
The subordinate took Xie Wenhua to Mo's house, and when he walked into the yard, he heard the noise of the babies, Xie Wenhua walked to the door of the house and shouted, "Uncle Mo, Aunt Song!"
Mo Tingyu and Song Nanzhi looked at the door, and saw Xie Wenhua hurriedly getting up and beckoning him into the house.
"Wenhua is here, come into the house."
"Come in and sit."
Xie Wenhua raised his feet and walked into the house, "It's really a coincidence that I came today." But then the conversation changed again, "Uncle Mo, auntie, you can just see me, why don't you tell me about Wanyun's birthday, if I hadn't come to touch it, I wouldn't know that Wanyun is today's birthday."
After saying goodbye to Mo Tingyu and Song Nanzhi, he turned his head to look at Han Shuxian again, "Brother Han, you are too uninteresting."
"It's not that I'm thinking that Brother Xie is busy with business on weekdays, you must know that Brother Xie is free today, I must have said it earlier."
Xie Wenhua followed Han Shuxian's words and said, "Not busy, not busy! It's a good thing I'm here today, otherwise I would have missed our fifth birthday." Then he took off the jade pendant on his waist and shouted at Mo Ziyun, "Wanyun."
Mo Ziyun was playing with Han Qiulu, turned her head to look at Xie Wenhua, pulled Han Qiulu and walked over, "Uncle Xie, why are you here?"
"I'll bring you the books you need for the school." After speaking, he handed the jade pendant to Mo Ziyun, "I don't know if it's your birthday today, I didn't have time to prepare, I will take this jade pendant this year, and wait for Uncle Xie to prepare a gift for you again next year."
Mo Ziyun waved his hand and said, "Uncle Xie is not polite, the jade pendant is something that Uncle wears, Uncle keeps it, and when I go to the county or the capital another day, I will go to Uncle again, Uncle will take me to play when he arrives, and he should give me a birthday gift."
"Yes, yes, Wan Wan is right, Wenhua, you put away the jade pendant quickly, she has a little baby and has not been born, so our two families are looking for a reason to have a meal together." Mo Tingyu said.
Han Shuxian also said: "Brother Xie, you should keep this jade pendant first, she is a little baby, you give her this jade pendant, it is not fun for her to hold it, and when you are empty, it is better to buy her a beaded flower, or a doll than your jade pendant."
Mo Ziyun followed Han Shuxian's words and said, "I like dolls and I like to read, Uncle Xie can give me dolls and books." qδ.net
"Put it away, she's a little baby, how can she afford something as valuable as you." Song Nanzhi walked up to Xie Wenhua and helped him take back the jade pendant in his hand
Go, "Have you eaten?" I'll make you some."
Xie Wenhua had no choice but to put away the jade pendant, "Auntie, don't be busy, I've eaten it all."
"Sit down and rest, I'll pour you a glass of water." Song Nanzhi beckoned Xie Wenhua to sit down, and then turned around to make tea for him.
After Xie Wenhua sat down, he said to Mo Ziyun, "I'll make up for you again another day."
"Thank you, uncle."
Han Qiulu followed Mo Ziyun and thanked her, "Thank you, uncle." made everyone laugh, Xie Wenhua said, "Okay, Uncle will also prepare a gift for us Lulu when he arrives, but we can't get our Lulu's thanks in vain."
Xie Wenhua and Han Shuxian accompanied Mo Tingyu at the Mo family, and Song Nanzhi spoke for a while before returning to the Han family, and Mo Ziyun also followed.
After arriving at Han's house, looking at the books in a carriage, Han Shuxian directly asked people to drive the carriage to the school, and invited Xie Wenhua to come along, "I'll take you to see our school, and then I'll go to the river to see the paper mill being built later."
"It just so happens that I want my kid to come to your academy to study, and I'll transfer him to another academy today." Xie Wenhua said.
"He reads well in the capital, and if you let him come to this village, he will definitely not be willing." Han Shuxian said.
"If I tell him about the benefits of your school, I'm afraid he'll want to come to the village tonight." Xie Wenhua is not worried at all that his son will not be used to coming to the village, the village and the county are only a few miles away, and the carriage is less than a quarter of an hour away, what is there not to get used to?
When Xie Wenhua arrived at the school, he was even more determined to send his son to the Blue Water Bay School.
When he arrived at the school, Xie Wenhua looked at a large black board that was much larger than the lectern on the wall in front of the podium, wondered what it was for, and asked, "What is such a big black board used in the classroom?"
Han Shuxian picked up the plaster on the podium, turned around and wrote a word on the podium, "For writing." After writing, he took a rag and wiped it off, "The gentlemen wrote on the blackboard and explained, while the students looked at the blackboard and studied."
"Look at our student desks and chairs, one person and one table, without disturbing each other, and the height of these desks and chairs can be adjusted, if the tall children are not suitable to sit, they can be raised to sit."
"You've done too hard, I'm afraid that even the Kyori Guozijian can't compare to your classroom."
"All the ingredients in our canteen are grown by local people, the ingredients are absolutely fresh, two meats, one vegetable and one soup, and the daily food fee is only 10 yuan."
Han Shuxian has always remembered his pride when he took him to the toilet in the bookstore, and today he also took him to the toilet, "In order to keep the school clean, we will ask a cleaning staff to clean it, and by the way, we will also teach the children how to clean, and establish a good habit of hygiene and cleanliness for them."
Then he turned to the field outside the classroom and pointed to the surrounding wall, "We plan to plant some flowers and trees around the wall, but we have to wait until the children come into the school, we will take them to plant together, so that these flowers and plants can grow with the children."
"When will you start school?" After transferring to the school, Xie Wenhua asked directly.
"Soon, when the results of Qingyuan's government examination come out, we will start school, and there are still seven days to go." Han Shuxian replied.
"The results of the Qingyuan Mansion test should not be bad!"
"He doesn't think it's difficult, but he won't know until the exam results come out."
Coming out of the school, Han Shuxian took Xie Wenhua to the river again, and the paper mill was built near the water, mainly for the convenience of water.
Looking at the paper mill that already has a prototype by the river, Xie Wenhua sighed: "I really didn't expect that you not only have a luncheon meat workshop now, but the school has also been repaired, and now the paper mill has also been repaired."
Not only Xie Wenhua sighed, but Han Shuxian felt that all this was like a dream when he thought about it now, and he also sighed: "I feel like a dream." Then he laughed and said, "Aren't you the same? Bookstores are opening one after another, and the bookstore in Kyoto is almost repaired, ready to open for a long time?"
"Wait until next year, I'm going to print a few copies
Some books will be reopened later!"
Later, he said: "I don't think we should teach, teaching takes a lot of time, so it's better to write more stories or think of more different types of books."
Han Shuxian was noncommittal, "If you teach Xie Tao, you won't think so."
"You really didn't teach Chunlin, it's all Yunyun teaching Chunlin?" Xie Wenhua knew that Mo Ziyun was teaching Han Chunlin, but he thought that even if Wan Yun was teaching, he would only teach everyone to recognize words and memorize some of her books, but now the meaning of Han Shuxian's words is a little different.
"I'm mainly teaching Qingyuan now, and I also teach Wanyun at night, but I don't have much time to teach, half an hour a day, as for Chunlin, he is more suitable for Wanyun's teachings, and I'm happy to be idle."
"But he said that after the school opened, she only taught the current children, and she didn't have the energy to teach other children."
Xie Wenhua also agreed: "She is still young, and she is already very good at teaching those children every day." Later, he said, "Then you have to tell Wan Wan more at that time, Brother Duo Tao is not too much."
Han Shuxian smiled: "Then you need me to say more, you agree with a word."
Whether Xie Wenhua will send his son to the school in Lanwan Village to study, he will know when the school starts, and in the same way, what the results of Murong Qingyuan's Mansion Examination are, and whether they are really as he said, can only be known when the results are released.
A few days came in a blink of an eye, and on the day the results of the government examination were released, the Mo family went to the entrance of the examination room early, just like when they went to see the results in the county, but this time they failed to stand in a good position at the entrance of the examination room.
When the Mo family arrived at the examination room, there was already a circle of people at the entrance of the examination room, Mo Ziyun looked at the people gathered at the entrance of the examination room, looked around the examination room again, and then stretched out his hand to the wall on the side, "Where are we going to wait!"
"What are you doing there?" Just wait here, and the old men will definitely come out of the gate after a while, and when he comes out, let's see where he goes, and we'll look wherever he goes."
Murong Qingyuan explained: "Grandpa, that place has been posted before, and this time it is estimated that it is also posted there, let's go over and wait first, if not, let's wait for less people and then look at it."
After Murong Qingyuan explained, Mo Tingyu said, "Okay, then let's go first."
Sure enough, as the two expected, after the official came out, he first pushed the crowd back, and then took the list and walked under the wall where the Mo family was standing, although the Mo family also took a few steps back, but they were still standing in front.
Obviously, he was about to see the results, but Murong Qingyuan was nervous, and Mo Ziyun was as nervous as him.
