Cannon Fodder Just Wants to Farm (MTL)

Chapter 27: Elementary School

He didn't dare to look further, but now his father said that he could also carry the book box to school.

Qiu Yu said: "I can only go home once a month over there, and I can't see my father."

Xiao Heran hesitated again.

He Zifeng said: "Of course you can go if you want. On your day off, your little dad and I will take you home together and prepare delicious food for you."

Xiao Heran nodded and agreed.

He Zifeng said: "Good boy." Seeing that it was getting late, he took the child to sleep and placed little Heran inside against the wall. Qiu Yu is in the middle and He Zifeng is beside the bed.

At night, with his son sleeping soundly next to him, Qiu Yu whispered: "We still have five hundred cash at home." These days, the cake sales are good, and they can earn about six hundred cash every day, but when the two of them renovated the old house, they added more money. Went in after two ounces. Right now it's only 500 Wen. The food expenses plus fine grain are almost 400 Wen.

He Zifeng said: "Tomorrow I will go and find out what the wife's character is like. If she is suitable, I will send the child there."

Qiu Yu let out a dull sigh.

He Zifeng said: "Don't be sad, the little bird will grow up. I will stay with you."

In He Zifeng's arms, Qiu Yu could feel the hot temperature coming from his chest, which could alleviate his reluctance slightly.

Early the next morning, He Zifeng finished selling the cakes and temporarily packed up the stall and stored everything in the small backyard he rented. The money from the day's sales is in the money box, so I have more money on hand.

Qiu Yu is not more careful. He also brought a change of clothes for three people. The clothes I wore for work in the morning smelled of oil smoke and sauce, and it was always rude to go to see people.

After changing his clothes, Qiu Yu took his son to go shopping in the street. They have been setting up stalls here for some time, but this is their first time shopping.

He Zifeng went to the place Gouzi Dad mentioned. It was a house that looked very rundown, but the sound of reading could be heard from inside.

Just like in the village, there are always some aunts talking on the roadside. He Zifeng went up to ask directly: "Sister-in-law, how is this private school?"

He Zifeng is very tall and has a bit of righteousness, which makes people very fond of him at first sight. After listening to what he said, the aunt smiled from ear to ear and said, "My grandson is ten years old. What should I call my sister-in-law? I have to call her aunt."

The people next to him were also very enthusiastic in helping He Zifeng answer his questions: "If you ask others, I don't know, but this Brother Lin is what we have grown up watching."

"His knowledge is very good. He passed the Tongsheng exam at the age of ten. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of twenty. He could have taken the exam again, but I had a medicine jar at home and I really couldn't get the money. Open an elementary school. As I said, he can't afford to study, and he wants others to be able to study. There is no distinction between family status, even fish sellers can send their children here."

Scholars always have higher aspirations, and merchants have the lowest status. Many private schools do not want the sons of merchants. He is already unique if he can accept one.

If He Zifeng deliberately wanted to please others, most people would not be able to resist him. Seeing that He Zifeng was polite, these aunts were thinking about finding a private school for their son, and they also knew how to ask around. Such hands-on work showed that being a father is very responsible, and it was easy to win the love of female elders. It didn't take long for He Zifeng to take care of everything. Figured it out.

Then he thanked and left here.

I changed to another alley and asked some old people sitting at the door. They all said the same thing before going back.

When he came back, his son held a sugar painting of a dragon in his hand. He kept his little arm raised and handed it over to He Zifeng when he saw it. Qiu Yu said: "Well, Ranran has been reluctant to eat it, so I want to give it to you."

He Zifeng took a bite, and his son was satisfied. He sat on the stone bench in the backyard, swinging his feet, and concentrated on eating sweets.

Qiu Yu's eyes urged, wanting to ask He Zifeng how it was.

He Zifeng summarized what he heard elsewhere and told Qiu Yu. Even He Zifeng lamented that Mr. Lin was a very ambitious man. He had been known as a child prodigy since he was a child. It was said that he did not plan to get married. I am focused on running the school and it is expected to recruit 30 people. These days, more than ten children have signed up.

Qiu Yu said: "Then, let's go directly." Since he decided to go, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to go.

He Zifeng thought so too. After asking Ranran, the little guy agreed. Then I bought some fine grain at Mihang. The grain here was about 20% more expensive than in the village, but it was more convenient. I then knocked on the door of the private school with these things.

It was the first time I saw this Mr. Lin. He was only in his early twenties this year. He had an ordinary appearance but was very gentle. He told He Zifeng and others that they were going to be apprentices. They also told him the rules. They would have three days off on the 10th of every month and they would spend the rest of the days here. study. The accommodation here is Datongpu, the food is ordinary, but there is meat stew on the fifth of every month, and there are some rules about no fighting and respecting teachers. Once violated, you will be expelled immediately.

Ranran refused to accept life and said to Master Lin: "I won't make mistakes, I am very good." Then he took the initiative to hold Master Lin's hand.

It was so familiar that even the two fathers were a little surprised.

Mrs. Lin was already attracted by the cute and beautiful little Heran. With the little guy's soft little hand holding him, there was no way he could say no.

Qiu Yu said: "Then leave it to Master Lin!"

Master Lin asked people to collect the bunches and asked them to buy some paper and pens. Enlightenment books such as the Three-Character Classic and the Thousand-Character Classic.

Qiu Yu and He Zifeng hurriedly went to buy a stack of straw paper, two stacks of large rice paper, pens, inks, paper and inkstones. In addition, these items alone cost three hundred yuan. He chose the mid-range ones, and he hadn't chosen the best ones yet. No wonder it's not easy to be a scholar. Go back and give it to your child before leaving.

Although I was mentally prepared, I was still reluctant to leave when it came time to leave.

Qiu Yu quickly turned around and left. He Zifeng warned Ranran a few more words, but Ranran's eyes were red: "Don't worry, dad."

He Zifeng touched his son's hair before going back. Master Lin took He Ran's little hand and took him back to the house to study.

He Zifeng had just left the private school, and Qiu Yu was already crying. He Zifeng held him for a while, and Qiu Yu gradually stopped crying.

After He Zifeng returned to the village, he told Gouzi's father all the information about the investigation. When Gouzi's father heard this, he quickly set up a car to send Gouzi there. Before leaving, He Zifeng asked him to bring a quilt from home.

Xiao Heran is very popular with the children in the village. On weekdays, many children take the initiative to play with Xiao Heran. Today they came to play with him and were told that Xiao Heran went to the county to attend elementary school.

These children didn't know what elementary school was. They only knew that they had all gone there and were clamoring to go to elementary school. For a while, everyone in the village knew that He Zifeng had sent his children to school. Naturally, the news spread to the He family's old house.

After hearing this, Wan Hai broke a tea cup angrily: "They are deliberately giving me eye drops."
