Six-Year-Old Child, Baojiao, is Busy with Kingdom-Building
Chapter 60 Traveling
Wang Zhuangzhi frowned, sighed and said solemnly, "His mother, I'm either gossiping, or I think Yingniang's actions are inappropriate."
The elder sister-in-law was always kind, but there was clearly no one else in the carriage, and the man was still supporting Yingniang.
Liu Zhihua frowned, not believing that Yingniang was such a person, waved her hand and said to the head of the family: "You are free to worry about other people's affairs, and your own yard has not been settled yet, and what if it is a relative of Yingniang's family."
Wang Zhuangzhi choked, it was reasonable, but he felt something was wrong.
"I'm not tired after running all morning. Get on the kang and rest for a while. I'll cook."
After finishing speaking, Liu Zhihua walked out carrying the sweet potato basket in the ground.
Wang Zhuangzhi sighed, and didn't think about it any more.
east house,
Xiao Li held up the dragonfly, his big black and white eyes looked curiously at what his elder brother took out from the package, and asked suspiciously: "Brother, what is this?"
Erya hugged Jiaojiao, hurried ahead of her elder brother and said, "I saw this in Uncle Liu's house, it's used to color brushes."
Qiu Sheng placed the inkstone and brush neatly on the desk, and said with a smile: "Erya is right, this is the pen, ink, paper and inkstone bought by elder brother. If anyone of you can write in the future, you can use this brush to practice calligraphy." .”
These were bought with the money he earned from copying Chinese calligraphy books for others. Although the brush is not exquisite, it is better than small. The surface of the paper is rough and rough, but it does not affect it for practicing calligraphy.
"Father said just now that Jiaojiao has learned all the words in the booklet, Jiaojiao, then brother will come to test you."
Qiu Sheng found the booklet he had copied by hand, opened a page at will, blocked the pattern on it, and asked the words below with a smile: "Jiaojiao, how do you pronounce these two characters."
Jiaojiao approached and took a closer look, then replied in a waxy voice, "The house."
"what about this?"
"Well, this is a bird."
Qiusheng picked a few at random, and Jiaojiao answered them all correctly without exception. Later, he simply blocked those words and asked Jiaojiao to look at the picture and try to write those words.
Jiaojiao found a twig and skillfully wrote on the ground. She would never forget it after seeing it. Except for the slow strokes that were written incorrectly, Jiaojiao wrote down all the words completely.
This surprised Qiusheng, picked up his sister and praised her as a young genius, and said with a smile: "Jiaojiao, the eldest brother will teach you the correct writing steps in a while, let's study and write well in the future, Jiaojiao will definitely surpass the eldest brother and become a class Talented woman."
Although Jiaojiao doesn't know what a talented woman is, since her elder brother complimented her, it's a good word, she nodded with a curved smile and said "OK~".
Qiu Sheng patted his sister's head, then looked at Er Ya with a smile and asked, "Er Ya, have you learned it yet?"
Erya's dark face was a little embarrassed, she scratched her neck with a smile and explained: "Brother, I just memorized two words with Jiaojiao. I'm not good at reading. It's fine if there are big brother and Jiaojiao who can read at home." , Xiao Li and I don’t need to learn.”
Xiao Li on the side was studying with his inkstone in his arms. Hearing what his sister said about him, he shook his head and said, "Well, brother and sister study, but Xiao Li can't."
Qiusheng knelt down helplessly, embraced them with a gentle smile, and said slowly: "If you don't like reading, you must also be able to read and write. Eldest brother is often not by your side when you are in the academy, and your parents are illiterate. If you are illiterate, Now we are digging herbs and selling them for money, in case we need to read the paperwork and write the name if we want to negotiate a bigger deal with someone in the future, it’s fine if we meet good people, but we will be deceived if we meet those bad people.”
Jiaojiao felt that what the elder brother said was very reasonable, like the names of all the shops in the town, she would feel very disappointed if she didn't recognize them.
"Elder sister and younger brother must learn to read and write like Uncle Wang and Grandpa Lizheng. Others dare not underestimate them. Jiaojiao will supervise older sister and younger brother in the future."
Jiaojiao spoke in a crisp tone, with a serious look on her fair little face.
Qiu Sheng touched the back of his sister's head, feeling very cute, and smiled gently: "Jiaojiao is right, Er Ya and Xiao Li also need to read together, if there is anything you can't do, you can come and ask the elder brother, if the elder brother is not here. Ask Jiaojiao."
Erya scratched her head, she was so serious when she was a younger sister, how could she be lazy when she was an older sister, she gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay, then I will try to memorize a few more words."
Xiao Li heard that someone followed suit and said loudly: "Xiao Li also remembers."
"Erya will definitely be able to do it, and our little Li is also very obedient. Big brother will teach you some simple strokes today..."
...
After lunch, the family was still thinking about the yard, so they planned to go out.
The sky after the rain is very vast, and the sky is endless blue.
It took Wang Zhuangzhi twelve copper coins to borrow an ox cart with Lao Yangtou. The family drove the ox cart out of the village, and the villagers they met on the road pointed and commented.
"I don't know how much silver taels they dug up herbs and sold. Look at these days, they rent ox carts every day."
"Old Wang's family's jaws were lifted up to the sky. The other day when I asked Wang Zhuangzhi how to distinguish herbs, he ignored them. It was obviously petty."
"Look at what you said, who would tell you the money-making business? Although the old Wang's family is a bit evil, it never harmed us. Don't make sarcastic remarks about a village..."
...
Wang Zhuangzhi drove all the way to a main road, the bullock cart was swaying slowly, Wang Zhuangzhi looked around to see if there was anyone on the road and asked again.
Qiusheng hugged Xiao Li, Erya poked her head to look around, Jiaojiao hugged Bai Miaomiao and stroked its soft fur.
"Twelve..." Liu Zhihua wrung her fingers and didn't know what she was talking about.
Borrowing Lao Yang's ox cart for a while actually cost twelve copper coins. Qiusheng went back and forth at least eight times a month when he came back from school, and the head of the family had to go hunting or gather herbs to sell in the town, and he had to go back and forth several times.
It's not like I don't know, but I'm shocked, if this goes on, I can spend the money for an ox cart in less than two or three years.
Liu Zhihua clapped her hands, and hurriedly shouted: "Master, go to town tomorrow to look at the bullock carts. Our family will use them frequently in the future, so we bought them earlier and rented them to others."
Wang Zhuangzhi also felt that Lao Yang's price was getting more and more expensive in the past two days, so he nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll send Qiusheng to school in two days, and I'll take a look at the car dealership passing by."
When Qiu Sheng heard this, he hugged his younger brother and said softly, "Mother, this summer is almost over, and winter will come soon after autumn, and it will be very cold to ride an ox cart, if you really want to buy it, it's better to buy a horse cart than an ox cart. "
Although horse-drawn carts are more expensive than ox carts, they can be driven faster without wind or rain, while ox carts seem cheap but have many disadvantages, such as driving slowly, sitting in hot summer and cold in winter, and not being able to travel in rainy days. convenient.
When Liu Zhihua heard about it, she subconsciously touched the money bag. Now that she wants to buy a yard, she can't be as extravagant as before.
Bullock carts can be bought for four or five taels of silver, but cheaper horse carts cost more than ten taels of silver, which is quite a difference.
