Chapter 16 Which girl doesn't have love in her heart

"I saw him. He came when I was walking back. Uncle Jinniu was so angry that he was cursing me." Zhao Danniu answered readily, obviously not thinking about this aspect.

Wu Sanmei lowered her head and said nothing, thinking that it was good that she didn't get beaten.

Zhou Xiaozhou looked at it for a while, and when he saw that Wu Sanmei didn't ask any more questions, he made small talk: "Just now at Doctor Qian's house, Doctor Qian reminded him, and he just remembered that his father asked him to work!"

"That's what I thought. Why is Uncle Jinniu so angry?" Zhao Danniu suddenly realized.

Zhou Xiaozhou thought of something and added, "Isn't it a well-digging competition? If he causes his father to lose the competition, his father will beat him up." Then he and Zhao Danniu burst into laughter.

Wu Sanmei was stunned for a moment, obviously she hadn't thought of this yet. She was worried at first and then she started laughing.

"Miss Zhao, I'll follow my third sister and call you Big Girl!" Zhou Xiaozhou said with difficulty: "Your Zhao Xiaoer will also come to school! Do you know any other children near your home who will go to school?"

"My parents heard about this last night and were overjoyed. A few years ago, my father also thought about sending the second boy to study in the county, but he didn't have the means."

Not only are there no connections, but the money is not enough.

The Zhao family is a simple family, consisting of Zhao Jiaming and his wife, plus a son and a daughter. They have no elderly people to support, and their life is considered decent in the village.

The whole family is enjoying themselves.

Otherwise, how could Zhao Xiaoer still keep a dog? You know, raising a dog requires a lot of food.

"As for whether other families will go to school, I don't know," Zhao Danniu obviously didn't want to ask, "but the boy from Uncle Dayou's family should go. In my opinion, both boys and girls should be sent there. Their sister Lin should also go to learn."

Zhou Xiaozhou didn't know where to start: "Why don't these families allow girls to go to school?"

Please, what era is this? Why is there still such a serious idea of ​​favoring boys over girls?

Zhao Danniu was talking about Chunhua, who lived next door to them: "Didn't you call a lot of people to go to the school last night?"

Wu Sanmei coughed twice and signaled to Zhao Danniu that she had let the cat out of the bag.

I glanced at Zhou Xiaozhou and felt relieved when I saw that she didn't care much.

Zhao Danniu turned a deaf ear to them. "Chunhua next door heard about it and also asked her father to help, but her father didn't agree. He said that women should help with housework and take care of their younger brothers and sisters. He asked Chunhua to stay at home and said that if she continued to make trouble, he would find her a husband as soon as possible."

"How old is this girl?" Zhou Xiaozhou felt something was not right. A girl in primary school should be at most ten years old. How could she start looking for a husband at such a young age?

Does this place still have the bad custom of child brides as shown in the movies, or would the father sell his own daughter to an older bachelor in the village as a wife for the sake of the bride price? Zhou Xiaozhou's mind raced.

"It's already eleven," Zhao Danniu thought for a moment, "it's already twelve since spring. His father has had a hard time too. Last time he had a fight with Erniu's family because of her, right? Third sister!"

Wu Sanmei nodded. This matter was a bit embarrassing for unmarried girls like them.

But Zhao Danniu didn't care at all. Her family was small and her father only had two children, her and her brother, so he spoiled them quite a bit. Unlike other families with many children, who fought and made trouble every day and whose father didn't take good care of them.

Zhao Danniu told Zhou Xiaozhou about a romantic scandal that happened in the village not long ago.

It was a hot day, and the naughty boys in the village, led by Da Hu and Er Niu, went to swim naked in the creek.

According to Zhou Xiaozhou's understanding, since they had already entered the water and were not wearing any clothes, it must be naked swimming.

Then somehow, in the middle of the day, Chunhua happened to take a basin of clothes to the creek to wash.

They accidentally ran into it, and the wild boys were so scared that they ran all over the mountain. Chunhua was also scared and stepped into the stream. Erniu kindly pulled her out and picked up her shoes for her to wear.

Then, Chunhua's father went to Erniu's house and asked Erniu to marry Chunhua, saying that Erniu saw Chunhua's feet.

What is all this?

Zhou Xiaozhou said, "It's the 21st century now. How could such a situation still happen?"

Don’t marry me just because of my feet. The key point is that Chunhua is only eleven years old.

If anyone really dares to marry her, it would be illegal.

Here comes the point. Erniu didn’t say anything, but Erniu’s mother disagreed.

Erniu's mother disliked the heavy burden on Chunhua's family and was afraid that if Chunhua got married, she would still be controlled by her father. Then, all the things in Erniu's family would be secretly donated to Chunhua's family.

In the final analysis, Chunhua can't stand on her own. Chunhua is a daddy's girl.

Is there such a thing?

Zhou Xiaozhou didn't expect that such an incident would still happen in the 21st century.

Should she notify the Women's Federation to rescue this poor girl?

She was forced to get married by her own father and was despised by her future in-laws.

Nonsence!

What future in-laws? These things shouldn’t happen at all.

Zhou Xiaozhou felt that his three views were challenged. He did not expect that there was such ignorance in the depths of the mountains.

But seeing the two little girls, Wu Sanmei and Zhao Danniu, talking about these things with a look of being accustomed to them, she, as an outsider, although somewhat enthusiastic, could only keep to herself for the time being.

The two little sisters were very enthusiastic in gossiping about other people's families, and successfully derailed the topic. Zhou Xiaozhou could only watch them chatting animatedly and observe the two little men playing with the dog.

These two future students of hers are no ordinary people!

One is the beloved youngest grandson of the head of Lai'an Village, the other is the bully of Lai'an Village, and there is a little black dog to protect them.

I don’t know if there are such hidden talents among her other students.

Tired!

Zhou Xiaozhou, who failed to get any information and was instead introduced to a bunch of gossip, left the Zhao household with Wu Sanmei, who had finally had enough fun chatting with him.

Women, no matter young or old, are very excited when talking about other people's affairs, but become shy when talking about their own affairs.

For example, when they were walking on a small path in the village, when Zhou Xiaozhou asked Wu Sanmei why she cared so much about Li Dahu, she turned off the microphone.

Ha ha.

Zhou Xiaozhou finally felt a little better.

A young girl in love.

This time they did not meet any acquaintances on the way and returned all the way back to the leaky school at the entrance of the village. The wooden board they had written on was still there, and Zhou Xiaozhou continued to teach his only two students.

"No, look, Xiaobao, this character has a horizontal stroke, not a left stroke." Zhou Xiaozhou felt a little tired. He didn't know why, but this classmate Wu Xiaobao seemed to have a hard time learning things.

I don't know if it's because of premature birth.

Wu Sanmei learns very quickly. This girl is really good at everything. Zhou Xiaozhou feels that he has made the right choice in choosing her.

Teach, read, and write.

Soon the sun was right above their heads. Wu Sanmei realized something was wrong. She had to go home and cook, otherwise her grandparents would go hungry.

The three of them ran quickly from one end of the village to the Wu family. Just as they crossed the ridge, Zhou Xiaozhou's cell phone rang.
