Six-Year-Old Child, Baojiao, is Busy with Kingdom-Building
Chapter 26 School Fees
Although he earns two taels of silver, the private school fee has risen to four taels of silver this year, which is still a bit worse. He originally wanted to copy more to earn enough tuition to make it easier for his parents, but he didn't want his younger sister to know the truth. .
Wouldn't it be frustrating to let parents know that he dropped out of the college.
Qiu Sheng's heart was pounding, he clenched his fists and thought about how to find a suitable excuse, "Mother, I, I'm afraid that you are worried, and the master is not here at the moment... we can talk about it after school starts."
Absolutely no, his father and mother came to the door like this, and he couldn't hide his lies.
Qiusheng was sweating, and Jiaojiao took out a cotton handkerchief from her small pocket, stretched out her small hands and handed it to the eldest brother, and said caringly, "Brother is tired from running, please wipe off your sweat."
Qiu Sheng was in a state of confusion, he raised his sleeves and wiped it carelessly, and then coaxed: "Brother has been running all day and smells dirty, Jiaojiao wipes the handkerchief for myself."
It was also the first time Liu Zhihua saw her son like this, she thought he was worried and scared, so she smiled and comforted her in a low voice: "Qiu Sheng, don't worry, those herbs sold for more than four liang of silver today, plus your two liang of silver, it will definitely Enough for your tuition."
Qiu Sheng turned from worry to shock, looked at Mother in disbelief, and stammered, "Mother is saying that the medicinal materials my little sister and the others found can not only be sold for money, but also sold for more than four taels of silver?"
Because on the street, Qiu Sheng covered his mouth and said the last sentence extremely low.
Liu Zhihua nodded earnestly, patted her son's thin shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Jiaojiao's knowledge of herbs, our family's life will definitely get better and better. Qiusheng doesn't have to worry about tuition fees, just go to school with peace of mind."
Qiu Sheng was inexplicably relieved, and after much deliberation, he still told the truth, pursing his lips and said, "Mother, the school fee has increased by two taels, and the school fee has to be paid four taels."
After calming down and thinking over the past few days, Qiu Sheng felt that he had to go to school. He was already weak and couldn't help him with physical work at home. Besides, his parents had great expectations for his studies.
Now his way out is to study hard, and in the future, he will work hard to gain fame and fame so that his parents, younger brothers and sisters can live a good life.
Before his parents knew the truth, he had to go to the academy, and he could return to the academy after paying the tuition.
Hearing about Siliang, Liu Zhihua and Wang Zhuangzhi frowned at the same time.
The tuition fee has also risen too fast, last year it was two taels of silver, how come it doubled to four taels this year, if it wasn't for Jiaojiao and the others to find herbs to sell, it is really uncertain whether they will be able to make up the tuition fee this year.
"Now that things are up to now, let's do it for four or two. Fortunately, our family has the lucky star of Jiaojiao. In the future, we can make a living by selling some herbs, and life will be better." Wang Zhuangzhi said with a smile.
After finishing speaking, he looked at his sweetheart with a doting face, wiped it clean and took his daughter's little fleshy hand to touch, feeling both rare and happy.
Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and laughed, "Father~"
"Hey, Daddy's Jiaojiao is so good, come and hug her."
Wang Zhuangzhi patted the dirt on his body, took his daughter carefully, and held him in his arms very seriously. The daughter was so soft that his heart almost melted.
Liu Zhihua looked at the father and daughter and smiled with the corners of their mouths raised, and looked at the serious face of the eldest son. She comforted her and said, "The family has enough money. If you don't want your parents to go, then you can pay it yourself."
Although she felt sorry for the four taels of silver, but Qiu Sheng's studies were outstanding, Liu Zhihua quickly took out two taels of silver from the purse, plus the two taels of silver that Qiu Sheng had just given, a total of four taels and handed it to her son.
Qiusheng took the money, and his family was poor. If other families in the village would not have allowed him to go to school, his parents have been supporting him to study and go to school.
Thinking of his father and mother's hard work these years, Qiu Sheng clenched his fists and his eyes became firmer. He decided to be named on the gold list to shine on the lintel, so that his father, mother, younger brothers and sisters all have a good home, so that the dedication of the family to him is not in vain.
"Qiusheng, mother knows that you are good at reading and writing, but you still need to study more when you go to the academy. Don't copy these books anymore. Since you are going to the academy, you must study wholeheartedly." If you are distracted, you will be delayed.
Qiu Sheng pursed his lips and hesitated to speak, but actually copied the notebooks in his spare time.
But in order not to worry his mother, he nodded obediently: "Mother, I will."
Xiao Li stared at his father, mother, elder brother and the others, he couldn't finish talking, he curled his lips and touched his stomach, then raised his head and said loudly: "Mom and Dad, Xiao Li is so hungry."
Hearing this, Jiaojiao also imitated rubbing her stomach, drank some noodle soup early in the morning, and she was also a little hungry.
Wang Zhuangzhi saw that his baby was also rubbing his stomach, so he hurriedly said with a smile, "Okay, it's getting late today, everyone go to lunch first, and we'll talk when we're full."
"The wonton shop I passed by just now smells delicious, let's eat wontons today..."
...
A family of six went to the wonton shop and ate hot meat wontons. They bought a big cage of meat buns and ate them happily.
after dinner,
The family went to the grain store again, first bought some necessary seasonings, and then bought two catties of pork and some fine flour and polished rice, which cost a tael of silver.
Passing by the restaurant, looking at the head of the restaurant helplessly, Liu Zhihua took out fifty coins and bought two taels of cheap shochu.
Wang Zhuangzhi didn't dislike it either, he was so happy from ear to ear holding the wine gourd.
Passing through the clothing store, Liu Zhihua felt for a few strings of copper coins in the purse. Now that Qiusheng's tuition fee was enough, the remaining 900 cash would be enough to buy Erya an ordinary garment.
Erya looked at the clothes store, and said with a smile on her dark face, "Mother, I see that the clothes in these places are too ordinary, why don't you save some money and go to bigger places to buy new styles."
Now that she is no longer greedy for other people's new clothes, she finally has those riches, so she should save money to subsidize the family.
Liu Zhihua stroked her daughter's shofar braids. Erya is very smart and strong. She often treats her daughter as an adult, and as time goes on, she cares less than Xiaoli Jiaojiao. Looking at her gray and old clothes, she can't help but feel a little guilty and distressed. Sigh He took a breath and said with a smile: "Now your elder brother's tuition fee has been collected, and there is still some spare money left, buy me new clothes for Erya today."
Saying that, Liu Zhihua led her daughter into the clothes shop.
There were a lot of people coming and going in and out of the clothes shop, and most of them were women. Wang Zhuangzhi waited at the door with Jiaojiao and his two sons.
Qiu Sheng pretended that he couldn't wait any longer, so he told his father and hurried to the direction of the private school, planning to ask his wife to pay the private school fees.
Jiaojiao lay quietly on her father's shoulder and waited, looking at the vendors on the street from time to time, she was curious about everything.
Suddenly, her gaze fell on the old man across the way. He was carrying a grass tree with bunches of red fruits on it. The fruits were covered with light yellow syrup, which was very attractive under the sunlight.
"I want one."
A little boy held two copper coins and handed them to the old man. The old man picked a bunch of them for him. The boy was so happy that he held up the candied haws and bounced away.
Jiaojiao's mouth moved, her dark eyes stared unblinkingly, she licked her mouth, um, that red fruit must be delicious.
Meng Jun was drinking tea at a tea shop, and he casually turned his head to the road, and saw the white glutinous girl staring at the candied haws on the opposite side. Perhaps she was too good-looking, but he recognized it at a glance.
