Ning Qingxi's proposal was supported by Wang Xiujuan.

"I don't have any opinion, seeing that your father's tasks are getting more and more, we fellow villagers are the most trusted, and they are the most convenient to use, it is naturally good for them to learn more, but it seems that you have less and less time to go to this job." Wang Xiujuan hesitated.

"It's okay, it's making gunpowder bags, crossbows, knives and arrows, armor, I really don't have anything to do here, I've already told General Chang." Ning Qingxi used to climb the mountain every day and walk to the secret workshop, she was not tired, but she didn't have anything to do for a few days, just to go around and give a few opinions, but she didn't have any role in it at all, so she thought it was better not to go, and go again if she had something, her task was not management, and she was only responsible for research from beginning to end.

So she directly discussed this matter with Chang Yuan, Chang Yuan is now full of gunpowder, Ning Qingxi will not delay the refining of gunpowder if he goes, since this is the case, he will not force it.

Anyway, it was only Lu Xun who was managing, and Ning Qingxi put forward his opinions from the side.

As for Ning Qingxi's initiative not to take the monthly salary, he didn't hear it, and he was not so stingy that he was so stingy.

What's more, the gunpowder was originally made by Ning Qingxi.

After Ning Qingxi explained, Wang Xiujuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, her granddaughter had not yet started to move from the workshop, she was a little lazy, she fished for three days and dried nets at both ends, but now she goes less, and she is behind her ass every day, and the two are inseparable.

"You kid didn't say it earlier, so I've been worried for so long." Wang Xiujuan's fingers lightly tapped Ning Qingxi's forehead.

Ning Qingxi smiled, "Didn't I want to see how long you could hold back and ask?" ”

Wang Xiujuan was indeed holding back, she could feel that Ning Qingxi was very clingy to her, especially after Ning Changrong left.

But it's not good for her to take the initiative to ask, otherwise her granddaughter will think that she dislikes the other party?

"You, you." Wang Xiujuan couldn't help her, "If you want to teach them to read and write, you can teach them, but teaching children to read and read is not an easy task." ”

Although her granddaughter is very worry-free, she never let him and Ning Changrong worry about learning since she was a child, but it doesn't mean that other children are like this, she has heard others complain about how painful it is to tutor her Wang Xiujuan's children in homework, and when she dances square dances, she can even hear a lot of gossip.

Some highly educated grandparents have to travel together in order not to make up for their grandchildren.

Otherwise, they may have to let their children grasp their grandchildren and grandchildren, and when their own children give their grandchildren make-up lessons, they are watching from the side, which is called a "family harmony", this kind of work is not suitable for them, so they can save their anger, they can't be hurt when they are old, and they can occasionally bring their grandchildren to make up classes? Think beautifully!

Ning Qingxi hesitated a little, "Won't it?" Is it that hard? ”

Wang Xiujuan decided to give her granddaughter a preventive shot in advance, "The characters here are not modern simplified characters, and there is no pinyin, and these children have never recognized words, do you think it will be less difficult?" ”

Ning Qingxi only then reacted, modern literacy relies on pinyin, pinyin can save a lot of trouble, there is neither pinyin nor traditional Chinese characters here.

"Milk, or not?" Ning Qingxi said tentatively.

Wang Xiujuan smiled, "You, you, it's good that you didn't go out to talk, otherwise you would have given hope to others and disappointed others." In fact, you can do this, if you don't want to, you can go to someone who is willing to do it, and we will pay for it. ”

Ning Qingxi thought about it, where are there any people who can read? And those who could read and write were sent to work.

Now the city is most lacking in literates.

"Forget the milk, I'll teach, anyway, I haven't done much recently, they can learn as much as they can, and we don't force it." Ning Qingxi said seriously.

"Okay. I will listen to it when I have time. Wang Xiujuan didn't follow the literacy when she first came, she was equivalent to an illiterate, that is, she compared the simplified Chinese characters given by her granddaughter with the words of this era, and then slowly learned to know a lot of words.

Ning Qingxi is a man of action, just do what she says, and after making up her mind, she first went to the workshop that was still in Taixi County, and asked someone to order a blackboard for her.

It is that the wood plate is brushed with some black paint on it is equivalent to a simple blackboard, which may not be as easy to use as the modern blackboard, but it is better than nothing, and you can't write on the sand table, right? That is not convenient to teach, and the students have to come up and read one by one when writing a word.

Chalk is also made in the workshop, Ning Qingxi found the production method of chalk in Baidu Encyclopedia, although it cannot be perfectly reproduced, but it is enough to use it simply.

Chang Yuan was busy making a battle plan, but he would also pay attention to the things in the workshop, and after hearing that Ning Qingxi was looking for someone to customize something, he called someone to ask.

"Miss Ning, what are those two things you asked people to make? What kind of weapon is it? Chang Yuan was very busy, so he simply got straight to the point, and he also understood that this family didn't like to be polite, and they usually had something to say, which was very much in line with his heart.

Ning Qingxi really didn't expect that her entire blackboard chalk could alarm Chang Yuan, she explained: "No, General Chang, I asked people to make blackboards and chalk, which are used for teaching, I am going to teach people to read, use this chalk to write on the blackboard, so that people can see more clearly, and the handwriting after writing can also be erased." ”

When Chang Yuan heard that it was not a weapon, he immediately lost half of his interest.

Immediately I heard that Ning Qingxi was going to teach people to read, and now the most lacking thing in the city is literate readers.

The north is bitter, and most of the scholars are in the south.

"Good literacy, does Miss Ning need any help?" Chang Yuan asked.

Ning Qingxi shook his head, what else does a small private school need others to help with?

……

After Mrs. Cheng heard that she could send her grandson to Ning Qingxi to read and write, she immediately stood up happily, and even Ning Daniu's daughter-in-law beside her couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Are you telling the truth? Sissy? Would you really like to teach this kid how to read? ”

Ning Qingxi smiled and said, "Yes, Grandma Cheng, not only Brother Daguang, but also other children can come." ”

Ning Daniu's daughter-in-law groped the corners of her clothes with both hands, and asked cautiously, "Xixi?" How much does this bundle cost? ”

If it was in the past, their family would definitely not be able to take it out, but now that Ning Da Niu has a fortune and Ning Xiaoniu also has an errand, it is not difficult for their family to take out a bundle.

Ning Qingxi replied with a smile: "Don't be restrained, I'm not a serious school, I don't teach any Four Books and Five Classics, I just teach everyone to recognize some words, and some arithmetic and the like." ”
