As the sun sets, the entire village is covered with a layer of golden veil.

On the table in Chen's courtyard are five bowls of brown rice, a plate of stir-fried pork with chili peppers, and a plate of green stir-fried wild vegetables. The midsummer breeze blows gently, and the aroma of the vegetables spreads, lulling everyone's greedy minds. All hooked up.

"Let's move." Chen Changsheng gave the order and everyone started to use their chopsticks.

She took a bite of the chili and it was really delicious.

Chen Changsheng felt that this eldest son had some talent in cooking. She just guided him from the side, and Dafu was able to stir-fry this kind of flavor, which was very similar to her own style back then.

After dinner, it was just getting dark.

After the red bricks have been exposed to the sun for a day, the water vapor has basically evaporated, leaving only the last step of braised red bricks.

Chen Changsheng stacked the bricks neatly one by one into a small pile, keeping the center hollow, and then wrapped a layer of wet mud around the outside of the pile.

She stuffed the ignited thatch into the hollow in the middle, added a few firewood inside, and let the bricks burn slowly.

A fire was lit in the yard, and the children immediately gathered around to watch, "Mom, what are you doing? Are you playing with fire?"

Chen Sanshou stretched out his hand to add fuel to the fire, but Chen Changsheng stopped him, "You guys go ahead. Children can't play with fire. If you play with fire, they will wet the bed at night."

Chen Sanshou opened his mouth and muttered, "I'm ten years old, so I don't know how to wet the bed. It's all a lie to children."

Chen Changsheng said sternly, "Those are the things my mother used for experiments. Don't touch them yet. Are you all familiar with the Three Character Classic that my mother taught you yesterday?"

"I know it by heart! In the beginning, human beings are inherently kind. Mom, I know how to do it, so I can play with it." Chen Sanshou blurted out.

Well, this guy has a pretty good memory.

"Memorizing is not enough. Mother said that memorization is not only about memorization, but also about writing. If any of you can write it, after the fire is finished, mother will ask someone to do it with me." Chen Changsheng He brought a bowl of water, "Who wants to try it?"

Chen Dafu pursed his lips and took a step forward, "I am the eldest brother, I come first."

He raised his hand to dip in the water, wrote "person" in one stroke and then stopped.

What's behind? He doesn't remember.

Chen Dafu scratched his head in embarrassment and stepped aside.

Chen Erlu also wanted to try it, but he could only write the word "人" and the word "Zhi" before he stopped writing.

Chen Sanshou stopped. He knew that he couldn't write either, so he simply gave up.

It seems a bit difficult, especially the words "nature is inherently good".

Chen Changsheng lowered the difficulty, "Mom, I won't embarrass you. You don't need to write 'nature is inherently good'. Anyone who can write 'the beginning of man' will be considered a success."

Chen Sixi stepped forward to give it a try. During the day, she had secretly practiced several times during the day when there were few customers selling tofu puffs.

She stretched out a finger and dipped it lightly in the water, then began to write slowly on the table.

Sixi first wrote the word "人" and then the word "之". She wrote these two characters quickly and smoothly.

Chen Changsheng nodded with satisfaction, these four girls were quite smart.

Chen Sixi then wrote the third character, and got stuck after writing "衤". She thought for a while, but couldn't think of anything, so she could only say weakly, "I, I'm too stupid, I can't write it either." come out."

"You are already very good at writing two characters correctly. If you can practice the word "chu" a few more times tonight, you will definitely be able to do it."

Chen Changsheng did not reprimand her. After only one night of teaching, she was able to write two characters for Si Xi, and she even wrote the correct radical for the third character. She was already a fast learner.

She always insists on encouraging education and does not dampen children's enthusiasm.

When Chen Sixi heard her mother's affirmation, she nodded vigorously, "Mom, I will continue!"

Chen Changsheng dipped some water and showed several children how to write the word "chu". "The word 'chu' is on the left and the word 'knife' is on the right, which is the word "chu"."

Several children followed her writing and practiced silently.

Taking advantage of her free time, Chen Changsheng went to the house to change out her bracelet. She chose the cheapest pine oil candle from the payment menu and spent ten dollars on it.

She lit the candle and said, "Let's continue to learn the next sentence today, 'Sex is similar, habits are far apart'. This sentence means that people are born with similar natures, but because the learning environment is different the day after tomorrow, the temperament will be different. The difference between good and bad.”

"What is the learning environment the day after tomorrow?" Chen Dafu looked at Chen Changsheng in confusion.

"When a child is just born, everything in this world is unknown to them, just like a blank sheet of paper. The different people and things he comes into contact with while growing up gradually affect this child." Chen Chang Sheng gave an example.

She continued, “Different people and different things are acquired learning environments.”

Chen Erlu raised his hand and asked, "Does that mean we can also change in the environment the day after tomorrow?"

Raise your hands to ask questions. This was what Chen Changsheng proposed from the very beginning. If the children have questions while studying, they must raise their hands first and wait until she agrees before they can ask questions.

Even if they go to school in the future, the school will still ask for this.

"Of course. Mom is now teaching you how to read and write. This is to help you gradually change."

Chen Changsheng said thoughtfully, "I like reading. I will also learn arithmetic in the future. I want to be a shopkeeper. I also want to learn business from my mother."

"Haha, little sister, how can a woman be a shopkeeper, how can a woman do business. In my opinion, it's enough for you to embroider at home." Chen Sanshou covered his mouth and snickered.

Chen Sixi was stunned and a little embarrassed.

Chen Changsheng disagreed with Sanshou's words, "Why can't women be shopkeepers and do business? Mom is also a woman, isn't she also doing business?"

She nodded to Si Xi encouragingly, "As long as Si Xi works hard, she will definitely become the shopkeeper. How many of you are there? Have you three brothers ever thought about what you want to do in the future?"

The three Chen Dafu brothers scratched their heads in confusion. They really hadn't really thought about what they would do in the future.

"It doesn't matter if you haven't figured it out yet. Let's learn slowly. In the process of learning, maybe you will find something you are interested in."

Chen Dafu scratched his head, "Actually, actually I like cooking very much. I want to be a cook in the future, open a big restaurant, and cook for my mother and my brothers and sisters every day."

Chen Erlu said seriously, "I haven't decided yet, but I am also very interested in doing business, and I also want to learn how to do business from my mother."

Dafu and Erlu both expressed their thoughts, but Chen Sanshou remained silent.

"San Shou, what about you?" Chen Changsheng looked at Lao San with concern.

"I haven't thought about it yet." Chen Sanshou said with a wrinkled face.

"Then let's learn and think."

Along with the flickering candlelight, the four children recited in unison, and their little wishes took root in their hearts.
