A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career
Chapter 218 The new wife in Chenjiacun
Chen Changsheng listened to the reports of several children while eating.
Dafu put down his chopsticks and said first, "I am responsible for tending the fields at home every day, chopping firewood, carrying water, washing clothes, and getting up early to grind soy milk and cook tofu."
Erlu continued, "I am responsible for delivering goods. I come back and forth from the city, which takes almost a whole morning, and then I feed the cows."
"Sixi and I are responsible for feeding the chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep and rabbits, and going to the fields to catch insects and pull grass." Sanshou thought for a while and continued, "During the day, the aunts in my heart will also send mugwort and elm bark, and we also need Settle the money for them."
Everyone finished talking about what they were doing and looked at Chen Changsheng.
"The weather is still getting colder, and the business of mosquito coils will be much less after autumn. There are only some markets in the south. By then, you and Sixi won't have to buy so frequently every day."
After the Beginning of Autumn, mosquitoes and ants in the north are basically gone, and only southern Fujian and Vietnam are still hot.
The output of mosquito-repellent incense will be reduced appropriately, and the raw materials that need to be purchased will naturally be reduced accordingly. This job can be fully handed over to the brothers Chen Youjin and Chen Youyin.
In this way, Sanshou and Siyou need to feed the livestock at home, so they can free up a lot of time.
Next is the work in the hands of Dafu and Erlu.
She thought for a while, looked at Chen Erlu and said, "Mom has decided to hand over the delivery work. Then Erlu, you can help your elder brother with some tasks, such as chopping firewood and carrying water. You all have free time in the morning. Go to school.”
Erlu nodded in agreement, but he was still worried about his family's property situation and couldn't help but ask, "Then who should we find to deliver the goods?"
Yes, who will deliver the goods?
The delivery person must be able to drive a truck, be careful, and most importantly, be reliable and not be obsessed with the ingredients. Sometimes he may also need to settle money.
After thinking about it for a while, she probably had a candidate in mind for Chen Changsheng.
After eating, several people reviewed their knowledge again and lay down to rest early.
Li Zheng acted very quickly. In just one day, he found someone to clean up the old yard vacated by Chen Changsheng's family. The roof was re-thatched and briefly renovated, just waiting for Master Zhan's arrival.
The next day, Chen Changsheng went to the city early to pick up people.
She drove straight to Liang's house.
Master Zhan has already packed his luggage. There are not many things. One bag contains a change of clothes and two boxes of books.
He taught in the Liang family for many years, from the time Liang Shaoqin entered Mongolia until he was admitted as a scholar.
When he learned that he was leaving, Liang Shaoqin said reluctantly, "Master, if you go to the countryside, don't forget to return to the city from time to time. I am your closed disciple."
Fortunately, his husband went to the village to teach instead of returning to the countryside to retire. Moreover, he went to Chenjia Village, which was not too far away. If you want a husband, you can go to Chenjiacun.
"Young Master Liang is a scholar in high school. It's my blessing that he still remembers me. Naturally, I will not forget Young Master Liang either."
Liang Shiqiu on the side didn't say anything, he just took out a banknote from his sleeve, a total of two hundred taels.
Master Zhan refused, "Mr. Liang, I can't do it. The monthly tuition you give me is already extremely generous. How can I have the nerve to ask for money from you again?"
"Sir, this is my wish. You have taught Shaoqin for so many years. You treat him as your own son and teach him with all your money. It's only two hundred taels. You must accept it."
Liang Shaoqin took the banknote from his father's hand and stuffed it into Master Zhan's bag. "Master, please don't be polite to my father. If you are not in the house, there will be many places to use money."
He even felt that the two hundred taels his father gave him was too little.
"Then I'm welcome." Master Zhan put the banknotes away carefully and said respectfully.
Chen Changsheng left the mansion with him, and the two of them chatted about school matters while walking.
"Those children in the village have never read books and their foundation is weak. Master, please be more considerate when teaching."
Master Zhan stroked his beard and smiled and said, "As long as you are willing to study hard and are not afraid of a weak foundation, if a student fails to pass the exam in one year, then it will take two years. If two years is not enough, then three years will be enough."
It is so rare for students in a village to be willing to learn.
"Master, among the children in our village, some of them went for the scientific examination, but most of them just wanted to know a few more words so that they could have one more skill than ordinary people in the future. Not everyone wants to take the examination. Can take the exam to become a scholar."
Master Zhan said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. As Mrs. Chen said before, studying is not all about scientific examination. I am also an enlightened master."
He was extremely looking forward to teaching in the village.
When the two returned to Chenjiacun, Li Zheng had already made arrangements.
Not all people in the village were as willing as Chen Changsheng to buy pens, inks, paper and inkstones for their children, nor were they able to afford them, so they encountered problems when learning to write.
If you don't practice calligraphy, how can you learn it?
Chen Changsheng asked Li Zheng to inform each household and made a simple square frame with wooden boards and strips. Then he spread a thin layer of fine sand on the board and used wooden sticks to practice calligraphy on the sand table.
As soon as this method came out, it was well received. Everyone rushed to the Chenjiacun river to scoop up sand, fearing that if they were too late, others would scoop up all the sand.
The desks were made by people in the village who knew carpentry, and the school was renovated by people who knew masonry. The wife’s residence was also cleaned and tidied. Some people brought out the best bed sheets in the house, and others brought beddings to cover them. A large specially built desk.
In short, the rich contributed money and the powerful contributed, waiting for the new master.
When the ox cart stopped steadily at the entrance of the school, Chen Changsheng said, "This is the school of Chenjia Village. I hope Master Zhan will bother to give me some advice in the future."
Master Zhan looked at the school in front of him and sighed, "It's not worth mentioning. Your Chenjiacun is so dedicated to your studies. I believe it has its own destiny."
While the two were chatting, Satsuma ran over.
"Are you the wife invited by Sister-in-law Chen? Please allow me to introduce the situation of Chenjiacun School. As of this morning, there are a total of twenty-two students, the oldest is eighteen years old and the youngest is four years old.
Starting from this month, the tuition fee for the children's study for a month is tentatively set at 40 cents, which will allow us to collect more than 800 cents a month. Another 200 cents will be paid from the village public account, giving you one tael of silver per month, Master. Of course, Master, your food and accommodation will be provided by the village. Is that okay? "
Master Yu touched his beard and said indifferently, "I am alone. I can't use much money by myself. One tael of silver is more than enough."
He had no expenses to begin with, but before going to the Liang family, he was given a lot of monthly professor fees, and another two hundred taels were given to him before leaving. This money was enough for him to support him in his old age.
The man inside looked happy and said respectfully, "The residence has been tidied up a long time ago. Master Zhan, please come in and take a rest."
The master is indeed the master. He regards money as an external possession and does not dislike having less money at all. This is really admirable.
