Chapter 9: I'll Teach Them
"What Mu Mu said makes sense, that Xiucai is nearly half a hundred years old, and he is still just a showman, so it can be seen that his knowledge is not very good, don't miss the future of our children."
"That'...... In that case, we can't find any other gentlemen, what can Bai Yuan do with Bai Jin studying? Zhang Caiping said worriedly.
"I'll teach them." Li Mumu was worried that he wouldn't be able to farm, and when he arrived in the field, he was all exposed.
But you can't just do nothing at home, can you?
"You?" Zhang Caiping remembered that yesterday Li Mumu took the school to Gu Baiyuan, and he did read the book.
But Li Mumu also said that she was self-taught and taught Gu Baiyuan and Gu Baijin, is the level enough?
No matter what, it won't be better than Xiucai, right?
No matter how good Xiucai is, at least he really passed the test.
Li Mumu said: "Although I am self-taught, there is no problem with Bai Yuan and Bai Jinmeng. It's just that the handwriting is not very good-looking. ”
She is a modern person, and she has never learned calligraphy seriously, and she still uses traditional Chinese here.
She doesn't have any obstacles to reading traditional Chinese, and if she writes, it's no problem to draw a scoop according to the gourd, but it definitely won't look good.
"But it doesn't matter, when the time comes, I bought a copybook and practiced on it." It's not a big problem, "When Xianggong comes back, let Xianggong teach at that time, and with Xianggong's knowledge, it will definitely be no problem to teach Bai Yuan and Bai Jin." ”
Everyone thought about it, especially Gu's mother was extremely confident in Gu Shangqing's knowledge.
"Then do as Mu Mu said." Gu's mother made a decision.
"Ouch, it would be nice if we could marry Mu Mu as soon as possible, so that we can save a lot of money for studying." Zhang Caiping snapped her fingers, and her flesh was already hurting.
But fortunately, they Bai Jin haven't started studying yet, and she hasn't paid the money yet.
It's Wang Cuizhen who spent more unjust money.
Unexpectedly, I heard Wang Cuizhen say: "Mu Mu, you teach Bai Yuan Bai Jin, you are their teacher." So how do we count this bundle? ”
Li Mumuxin said that although Wang Cuizhen's temper was a little rushed, she was a simple person, and said with a smile: "Our family, how can we still count these." Now Bai Jin is only four years old, and he may not be able to understand much if he learns from me, but he can also follow along, learn and see first, and lay a foundation. ”
Zhang Caiping was afraid that Wang Cuizhen would not talk about the topic of giving money, since she was studying at home, what money would she give.
Of course, if you can save it, you can save it, so she hurriedly said: "Mu Mu is right, our family, what do you do so clearly?" ”
Besides, Li Mumu is not a gentleman, he has no fame, and he is self-taught.
If you still want to give Li Mumu money, Zhang Caiping always feels that she has lost.
"Mu Mu, you are only responsible for teaching Bai Yuan and Bai Jin, and I will leave the work of farming to me." Zhang Caiping hurriedly said, "You don't have to do anything. ”
Since Li Mumu doesn't accept money anymore, she, Zhang Caiping, is not the kind of person who can't pull out a dime.
Wang Cuizhen was also busy saying: "Yes, yes, in the future, you will concentrate on teaching your children, and you don't have to worry about anything at home and outside the house." ”
"Thank you sister-in-law and sister-in-law." Li Mumu smiled and nodded.
Wang Cuizhen and Zhang Caiping's words really hit Li Mumu's heart.
At this time, Li Mumu noticed that Gu Xiuxiu was looking over with envy.
Li Mumu beckoned to Gu Xiuxiu, Gu Xiuxiu blushed and walked over with a shy face, "Third aunt? ”
"Xiuxiu, do you want to study with you?" Li Mumu took Gu Xiuxiu's hand and asked.
Wang Cuizhen subconsciously said: "She is a girl, what is she doing with so much learning?" ”
"Read a lot of books, don't suffer." Li Mumu said to Wang Cuizhen, "Otherwise, how can I talk about that Xiucai today?" ”
"Reading can be reasonable, and can distinguish between right and wrong." Li Mumu touched Gu Xiuxiu's soft hair, "Reading and literacy, no matter who you are, you won't suffer anyone." ”
"Besides, when the prime minister comes back in the future, whether he becomes a general or continues to test his fame, there will always be a big success, his niece and nephew, she can't be illiterate in big words, right?" Li Mumu said with a smile.
Wang Cuizhen: "......"
Zhang Caiping: "......"
It's good that Gu Shangqing can come back alive, and he is still a general?
Li Mumu really dared to think about it.
"Mu Mu is right." Gu's mother has a lot of confidence in Gu Shangqing, "You see that Mu Mu has read books, and what he says is different. What's wrong with the girls? Studying outside has to be shackled, and our family can't provide so many people to read together. But now that there are conditions, let Mu Mu read it together. ”
"Okay." Wang Cuizhen felt that the idea that girls don't need to read was a bit deeply rooted in the bone marrow, but she didn't feel that she needed to spend money, so she reluctantly agreed, "But Xiuxiu, you can't delay the work in your hand when you study." ”
"Okay." Gu Xiuxiu nodded seriously.
"Ouch!" Wang Cuizhen suddenly clapped her hands and shouted.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?" This sound startled Zhang Caiping.
"I forgot to get that bag of wild vegetable dumplings back! It's a pity to put it in Xiucai's place, it's a waste! Wang Cuizhen said distressedly, "Although the wild vegetables are not valuable, they are also steamed out of waste firewood." ”
Li Mumu smiled and took out the package from his arms, "I got it back." ”
She unwrapped the package, "But it was a little rotten by that show." ”
"It's okay." Gu's mother took it, "Let's eat at home, how can we pay so much attention to it, if it's a disaster year, it's good to have a stutter." At noon, I put it on the stove and hotted it, and we ate it. ”
The wild vegetable dumplings have been scattered a lot, Li Mumu pondered for a while, simply stirred up all the wild vegetable dumplings, and said: "Don't heat it up, it's also strange for the waste firewood, I'll mix it, let's eat it as a cold dish." ”
"How do you mix this?" Gu's mother was puzzled.
The rough food they eat on weekdays is steamed in a big pot of wotou, and when the weather is cold, the wotou is not easy to break, so it is no longer heated, and every meal is eaten directly.
Another big pot of dishes, and the family will have another meal.
"You'll find out if you taste it at noon." Li Mumu went to the kitchen.
Gu Baiyuan and Gu Baijin are greedy for fun, and they are usually willing to go to the back mountain of the village.
However, the two were young, and their families never allowed them to go into the mountains, only to walk at the foot of the mountain.
The two also picked unripe sour plums at the foot of the mountain and came back to play.
Because it was too sour, no one ate it, and it was used by Gu Baiyuan and Gu Baijin to play.
When I got tired of playing, I put it in the corner of the stove.
Li Mumu took a few plums, washed them, and pounded out the juice.
Peel five more garlic cloves, mash them into garlic paste, and mix them with sour plum juice into the wild vegetables.
Nowadays, soy sauce and vinegar are expensive, and the Gu family is reluctant to buy them.
Fortunately, these things are cheap, and there is no shortage of them when you grow some at home.
Although the plum is sour, there is still a hint of sweetness in the sourness, and even the sugar is saved.
At noon, Gu's father, Gu Shangyong, and Gu Shangwei came back from the field, and as soon as they entered the house, they smelled the faint fragrance of plums.
