Chapter 205
"In the beginning of human beings, their nature is good, their natures are similar, their habits are far apart..."

Because the sons had never read a book, Ye Bing enlightened them with the Three Character Classic in advance, so that other people were beating their children and scolding their wives, but their family was the only one who heard the sound of reading aloud.

Even the eldest girl listened to a lot at home, and she could memorize it verbatim, so she couldn't help but mutter words in her mouth when she was burning firewood and cooking in the kitchen.

"Girl, do you also like to study?" Ye Bing, who accidentally discovered this scene, asked casually while taking things.

"Auntie, I'm not, I'm not, I..." The eldest girl lowered her head and replied uneasy, as if she had been found out for doing something bad.

"I just like her, so why hide it?" Ye Bing frowned slightly, obviously dissatisfied with her lying.

"Auntie, I was wrong. I really like studying, but don't worry, I only eavesdrop after I finish the housework." The big girl who made a big mistake obviously doesn't dare to be as arrogant as before. Mistakes that can be corrected on the spot will never be delayed until later.

"Since you like reading, wait for you to finish the housework every day, and then study with Chongyi and the others." After all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the future, and it is good to be able to read two characters, so you don't have to be like those ignorant countryside Like women and children, there is nothing to pursue except being a gossip.

Mrs. Zhao is the best example. Because of her literacy, the villagers think highly of her.

"Aunt, can I really do this?" Studying is a future that poor people dare not even dream of, let alone studying as a girl.

"Just do the housework well." Ye Bing gave a positive answer directly.

"Auntie, don't worry, I will be able to do a good job at home." Apparently, the big girl also went all out for reading and writing.

The time for studying goes by very quickly, and the Chinese New Year is coming in a blink of an eye. Now I have to prepare some New Year’s goods.

Due to a lot of shopping, Ye Bing took his second son to the county this time.

"Mother, the butcher said that every family has ordered some pork for the Chinese New Year, but now they don't have any." Zhu Chonger struggled to get out of the crowded pork stall with a basket on his back.

"Let's go check out other stores?" The lard at home has run out, and if we don't boil it, we won't be able to eat it.

"I've already asked, and it's the same for several other companies." Zhu Chonger hurriedly stopped him.

The ancient people paid great attention to the New Year from the bottom of their hearts. Naturally, even the poorest people had to buy two or two taels of meat to go home. In addition to making a tooth sacrifice, it was also to worship the ancestors, hoping that they would bless their children and grandchildren safe and sound, and so on.

But now it is true that pork cannot be bought, and Ye Bing did not continue to struggle with this issue, and directly decided on the spot, "Then let's not buy pork, we will directly slaughter two chickens, one stewed, and the other fried."

"Listen to your mother." Zhu Chonger has always been in charge of the chickens at home. Not only are the meaty ones raised, but they are also very healthy.

New year's goods for the new year, of course, melon seeds and candies are indispensable, couplets and blessings must be bought and pasted on the door, and there is also a dish that must be served on the table. In addition to buying some grains and seasonings for fish every year, in the vegetable space Basically planted a lot.

I have to wear new clothes for the new year, thinking that my sons will be good at studying next year, so naturally the clothes have to be decent, otherwise my husband who looks like a beggar would not accept it, so I went to the cloth store to buy some simple and elegant cloth, which is not expensive And he looks like a scholar.

Thinking that some of the children had not eaten snacks such as cakes, I bought another box of cakes and three roast ducks.

When I passed by the jewelry store, I remembered that the big girl would wear a hairpin in time next year, so I bought a finely carved silver hairpin for 10 taels of silver.

Ye Bing didn't bring Chonger home until he was almost done shopping.
