Chapter 17: Location of the Academy

Little Jiang on the side: ... Yaya, although she knows that her cooking skills are the best in Lao Xiang's family, she really can't compare with the chefs of big families!

"Good!" Qu Xiang took the chopsticks and picked up the bitter herbs in the bowl and ate a chopstick, his eyes lit up slightly when he entered the mouth, and then he quickly finished eating the bitter herbs in his mouth.

The entrance is fragrant and slightly bitter, and it is obvious that the song is very fond of it.

Seeing that he finished eating, Xiang Tiange directly pushed the plate of cold bitter vegetables closer to him, so that he could clip it himself.

Qu Xiang really came out after breakfast, but even so, he ate a lot of cold bitter vegetables at Xiang's house, and even drank a bowl of porridge.

Cold bitter vegetables with porridge, the small belly of the koji is extremely supportive!

Xiang Tiange saw that he was propped up, and the little short-legged ran to Xiao Jiang, who was in the kitchen, took some orange peels, put them in the bamboo tube used to hold water, and brought them to him.

"Give!"

Qu Xiang sat on a stool, propped up to some of the point of immobility, and when he saw the bamboo tube in her hand, he asked, "What is this?" ”

"Soak the orange peel in water, you drink a little, and your stomach won't be so uncomfortable. In the past, when I ate a lot of food cooked by my aunt, I would get some citrus peel water for me to drink, and my stomach would not feel bad after drinking it for a while! Song to the sky.

Qu Xiang heard her say this, took the bamboo tube in her hand, opened it and took a sip, it was sour and salty, better than hawthorn water!

Qu Xiang drank the citrus peel water in the bamboo tube in a few clicks, and there was not much, just a small bamboo tube.

"This citrus peel water is even better than hawthorn water!" Qu Xiang exclaimed.

"Of course, this is my aunt's freshly picked citrus peel washed with salt and dried, if you like it, I'll ask my aunt if you can even out some for you to bring back?" Song to the sky.

"Uh-huh, okay." Qu Xiang nodded, he felt that this orange peel was even better than hawthorn water, and he could drink this delicious orange peel water after he ate it in the future!

Seeing him nodding, Xiang Tiange asked him, "What is the taste of hawthorn water?" I know that the sugar gourds sold in the town market are made of hawthorn, but after eating the outer layer of sugar, the fruit inside is so sour, and the hawthorn water is also so sour? ”

"Uh-huh, it's sour!"

At least the hawthorn boiled water he drank was very sour!

"When did your family build a school in the village?" Xiang Tiange asked Qu Xiang, she is very concerned about the school now, although her grandmother didn't let the family collect money when she helped build the school, but she received a silver ingot from the gods today!

Regarding the matter of going to school, Xiang Tiange is still very positive!

And she thinks that reading should be a very fun thing, at least when she heard Brother Xiang Hao read to her before, she thought the content in the book was very interesting, and she listened to it very happily!

He only read to her a short paragraph of the original text of the Analects and the interpretation of Xiang Hao: ......

"It should have been the past two days, and I heard my grandfather discuss the location with the village chief in the morning." That's it.

"That should be very fast in the selection of the site, when Uncle Shi's family in our village built a new house, the address of the new house was selected the day before, and the next day it was built, and the people in the village went to help, and it was built in two days!"

Thinking that she would be able to go to the academy in a few days, Xiang Tiange was very happy.

"So fast?! Doesn't it take at least a month to build a house? Qu Xiang glared!

This is different from the building of a house as he knows!

In the past, he had seen people build houses in Beijing, and it would not be completed in a month.

"Is this still fast? My second brother said that my grandfather's uncle's family was divided to build a house for him, and it was built in just one day! Xiang Tiange also glared, why would it take a month?!

How long is a month? Isn't it going to take many days?!

Will she have to wait many days before she can go to school?

At this time, the village chief sent someone to inform Lao Xiangtou and Xiang Boss, the second and third to go to the village chief's house to gather, saying that they were discussing the Qu family's intention to build a school in Taohua Village.

Seeing grandpa and them coming out, Xiang Tiange trotted over and hugged her father's thigh: "Dad, grandpa, uncle and second uncle, I will also go with you!" I'm going to see where the school is built, and I'll know where the school is in the future! ”

"Okay, then I'll take you with me!"

A few people nodded in response, and the construction had not yet begun, so it didn't hurt to take her with them.

Xiang Tiange saw that they agreed, and turned his head to invite his newly made friend, "Quxiang, are you going?" ”

Qu Xiang had never seen the location of the school, and was interested, and when he saw her inviting him, he nodded.

As for the other children of Lao Xiang's family, after eating breakfast earlier, they ran out to play with their own friends in the village.

Xiang Tiange went over and took his hand to the village chief's uncle's house, she had been to the village chief's uncle's house, so she knew the location, so she walked in front of Qu Xiang, and Lao Xiang followed behind them.

The next few people saw the two little ones in front holding hands, and from time to time they were talking about the interesting things they had experienced when they were young, and several adults had smiles on their faces.

In the village chief's house, Qu Lao Guogong was also here, and when Lao Xiang and the others saw Qu Lao Guogong who was full of murderous atmosphere, their waists couldn't help but bend a little, and they didn't dare to look at Qu Lao Guogong.

Xiang Tiange didn't have this feeling, and when she saw Uncle Qu talking to a strange old man, she let go of Qu Xiang's hand, ran to Uncle Village Chief, looked up at him and asked, "Uncle Village Chief, is this Grandpa Qu who is going to build a school in our village?" ”

When the village chief saw her calling the noble man a grandfather, he was startled, hurriedly pulled her over, and apologized to Qu Lao Guogong: "Master Qu, the children in the village have no knowledge, and they have offended you, so don't be surprised." ”

"Hey, it's fine." Old Duke Qu waved his hand, not minding Tiange at all to ask him to do this to Grandpa Qu, but looked at her and said with a smile: "You are the little doll of the Xiang family who invited Xiang Bao to eat roast birds yesterday?" ”

"Xiang Bao?" Xiang Tiange was wondering who Xiang Bao was, and when he saw Grandpa Qu in front of him beckoning to Qu Xiang not far away, he realized that Xiang Bao was Qu Xiang, so he nodded and said, "Well, yes!" ”

"Thank you for the roast birds, the old man is very happy to eat!" Because there were roast birds yesterday, it was rare for the old wife to allow him to drink a little wine or two.

"You're welcome Grandpa Qu, Xiang Bao also gave our family a delicious snack today." Xiang Tiange thought of the gourd cake that they hadn't eaten before, and smiled happily at the old man in front of him.

Seeing that the two were chatting happily, Master Qu didn't seem to care, the village chief breathed a sigh of relief, even if he didn't know the true identity of the person in front of him, but since the other party was from Beijing, his status would not be low.
