Mei Sanniang entered the back room, Xue'er was sitting on the bed and holding her hands, Mei Sanniang greeted: "Xue'er, pour a glass of water for your Erzhu uncle." ”

Mei Xue slowly moved off the bed after hearing this, Xue'er seemed like she didn't want to see Xu Erzhu at all, but she had to listen to her mother's words.

The little guy showed a reluctant expression, and Mei Sanniang didn't say much.

"Cher is so good."

Although the mother can't give anything practical now, a word of encouragement can still be spoken.

Children should not be pampered and pampered.

But you can't blindly belittle the child, the child is frustrated once in the heart of the blow is 10,000 times.

Mei Xue came over with steaming water, and didn't even look at Xu Erzhu.

Xu Erzhu called Xue'er, but Xue'er didn't react.

"Cher?"

Xu Erzhu tried his best to lower his thick voice.

"Xue'er, Uncle Erzhu called you." Mei Sanniang hurriedly reminded Xue'er, and Xue'er just said "um".

Seeing this, Mei Sanniang had no choice but to give the child a step down: "This child doesn't like to talk much recently." ”

"Brother Erzhu, didn't you say that there was a surprise for Xue'er? What surprises? Let's hear it. ”

Xue'er still didn't raise her head to look at Xu Erzhu when she heard the word surprise.

"Uh-huh."

"Xue'er, didn't you say you wanted to go to class before, I told Teacher Liu about it."

"I said Cher was good, and she agreed."

"She told me that it's okay to have one more child, but you need to bring your own lunch box."

Being able to go to school is something that many children dream of, but unfortunately Cher refuses.

"I don't go, I don't like to go to school, I want to accompany my mother and help my mother work."

Xue'er has a hard mouth, and she obviously wants to go to school very much, but after Xu Erzhu won a chance for her, she hesitated.

Mei Sanniang has the ability to teach Xue'er to learn more knowledge, she can't guarantee how well she can teach Xue'er, but one thing is certain.

She can teach, but there are other jobs waiting for her at home.

Sometimes it's not that parents don't want to teach, it's that they really don't have time to teach, and if they have time to teach, it's better to use it to earn money and work.

"Cher, there's not much work at home, let's go to school! Your Uncle Erzhu finally got the quota you wanted, don't you still have a friend Liu Tao? He is also in Mr. Liu's class. ”

"Then you two can go to school together, and the school is in town."

Xue'er hesitated for a long time, in fact, she wanted to go very much, but she didn't know why she refused directly.

"Xue'er, going to school is the only way out, and you have reached this age, and your mother wants you to go to school."

"Obedient."

"When the time comes, I'll buy some wool and make a three-piece set for you myself."

Mei Xue didn't know how excited she was, but she could only shake her head with tears in her eyes.

At this time, Mei Sanniang finally ran out of patience, she didn't like children at all before, because these children were naughty and disobedient, especially stubborn, she hated it very much, until she met the very sensible Xue'er, which changed her opinion of children.

But now Cher is the type she hates.

Mei Sanniang couldn't hold back and reprimanded Xue'er: "Do you know how many people are looking forward to going to school and looking forward to getting out of the mountains." ”

"If you still want to be worthy of me, you shouldn't waste this opportunity, you will only cause me trouble if you stay at home now."

"After going up the mountain, I not only have to watch the sheep at all times, but I also have to watch you, for fear that you and the sheep will be lost, and there will be less distraction when you are sent to school."

"Tell me, isn't it fragrant at school?"

"If you don't come to work, I'll go to school, I just want to enjoy Qingfu."

"Can you do it? If you can't do it, get out of the way to school. ”

Mei Sanniang's scolding voice frightened Xue'er, so frightened that Xue'er didn't dare to squeak a word.

"Sanniang, the child is still young, if Xue'er doesn't want to go to school, forget it."

Of course, she knows that her own children don't want to go to school.

"If you don't go to school, you won't have the opportunity to go to school, and if you don't cherish the opportunity, you will know how terrible it is to be uneducated."

After Mei Sanniang reprimanded, Mei Xue could only nod silently.

Mei Sanniang nodded with satisfaction.

Soon it was the first day of Xue'er's school, Mei Sanniang deliberately got up early in the morning to serve Xue'er a glass of hot milk, because it took a long time to go to the town, so Mei Xue could only rush the milk to her stomach.

Fortunately, Mei Xue was not alone, her mother sent her to school on the first day, and when she arrived at the door, she also saw a familiar figure.

"Liu Tao."

Mei Sanniang looked at the figure in the hazy night, it was the little boy.

They soon joined the boy.

Before going to school, Xue'er had already contacted Liu Tao, and Mei Sanniang even made two breakfasts, because these children got up early and were greedy for darkness, and it was estimated that they would not be able to eat a mouthful of hot food in the morning, so she prepared two servings.

In the morning, I eat wowotou, even if it is cold in a bag.

Liu Tao can't drink milk.

"Liu Tao, morning."

"This is the breakfast my mother prepared for you."

Liu Tao was taken aback, and hurriedly thanked Mei Sanniang, "Thank you, Aunt Mei." ”

"While it's hot, there's still a little residual temperature, hurry up and get down."

Mei Sanniang smiled, the first time she went to school, she didn't know what the school environment was like, and sending Xue'er to see how the rural school in the town was.

Maybe she can ask how much the teacher's salary is, and mix it up.

By the way, she will see how good the teacher is and whether she can teach the students well.

Since it costs money, she has to teach it in place, and she doesn't allow someone to be a teacher.

Along the way, the children chatted and laughed, and she carried Cher's lunch.

Because Xu Erzhu told Teacher Liu in advance that he would just go to the class, he would not eat in the school, and it would cost money to eat in the school, but Mei Sanniang felt that this thing could not be owed to others, and it was still symbolic to give the money in place.

As long as you teach well, it doesn't matter if you don't have money.

If you don't teach it well, you will be wrongfully spent.

When they arrived in town, they walked for two hours, from dark to dawn, without drinking a sip of water, and the two children were indescribably excited.

The school is not big, it is a few mud houses, but it is several times larger than her yard, and there is even a playground in it.

After they arrived, there was a teacher at the door to greet the children, of course it didn't look like it, Mei Sanniang thought it was because it was equivalent to the doorman's uncle.

She sent the children in, and made her intention known to the doorman.

As soon as the children entered the school, they should go to the classroom, so Liu Tao ran to the classroom with Xue'er, and Mei Sanniang told Xue'er before they left: "Take the lunch well, don't lose it, otherwise you will only be hungry at noon." ”

In Mei Sanniang's understanding, it is a problem for children in the countryside to even eat enough, since Teacher Liu is willing to take in some children to listen to the class, it is estimated that these children are not rich, in case some hairy children have unclean hands and feet, this will not be bitter Xue'er.

After Mei Sanniang waited for the children to leave, she looked at the uncle and said, "Uncle, I want to meet Teacher Liu." ”

"Let's go, I'll take you."

According to Mei Sanniang learned from the uncle, there are less than six teachers in this school. These six teachers all stay in the same office, so Teacher Liu, whom Mei Sanniang wants to see, is also in the office, and these teachers all live in the school, and the school has built a teacher's dormitory for the teachers.

Teachers are not the same as students, if teachers travel long distances to school every day, travel home for a long time, that pile of homework, the arrangement of courses can only be completed by them staying up late and working overtime, which undoubtedly increases the burden on teachers, so let teachers stay in school, the principal of this school also has an office with teachers, usually not only to serve as the principal, but also to serve as teachers, because teachers are scarce, there are few who can be qualified for the position of teachers.

Mei Sanniang followed the uncle to a dilapidated house and stopped.

"Wait a minute, I'll call Teacher Liu."

I saw the uncle call Teacher Liu inside, and soon there was a crisp voice inside.

Mei Sanniang thought that this was probably an elderly aunt, but when she heard the voice, she felt that it was smaller than her.

To be exact, it's the same size as her, and it's much smaller than the original owner.

Sure enough, as soon as Teacher Liu came out, Mei Sanniang's enthusiasm was instantly extinguished, Teacher Liu looked like she was only a teenager, she once wondered if anyone in this school could be a teacher?

"You're Teacher Liu?" Mei Sanniang looked at Teacher Liu with hostility, and then continued: "Is it convenient to chat?" ”

Teacher Liu looked confused, "Are you?" ”

"I'm Mei Xue's mother, Mei Sanniang."

As soon as he heard Mei Xue, Teacher Liu instantly understood.

"It turns out that you are Xue'er's mother, I heard Xu Erzhu mention it."

"Come on, let's talk here."

Mei Sanniang followed Teacher Liu to a place with few people, and Teacher Liu asked, "Xue'er Niang, do you have something?" Did Cher send her to school? ”

"Cher followed her classmates to the teacher."

"My Xue'er herself has reached the age of studying, and I hope that she will be a little promising."

"However, I think with the current faculty of the school, it is a little enough, right?"

Teacher Liu deserves to be Teacher Liu, she first apologized to Mei Sanniang: "Xue'er Niang, we are also very sorry, now the school is indeed poor, we try to collect less money from the children, we are also very hard as teachers, we all hope to teach the children well." ”

Seeing this, Mei Sanniang asked deeply, "How much do you pay a month?" ”

Teacher Liu smiled, but still replied, "Twenty yuan." ”

This money is actually a lot in the village, and in the city, it is more than 30 at most.

The children's tuition fee for half a semester is four yuan, and the teacher's salary is quite a lot.

Of course, it's not that Mei Sanniang cares about the money, the main thing is that the teacher doesn't seem to be senior, and she is a little skeptical about the teacher's level.

"Teacher, I haven't read much, can I ask you some questions?"

Teacher Liu was taken aback, but still said very kindly: "Xue'er Niang, you say." ”

"I never know, the meaning of Tao Yuanming's leisurely meeting Nanshan, can you tell me?"

Teacher Liu was taken aback, she didn't expect a woman to know Tao Yuanming.
