leisurely farming life

The next day Cheng Qing went to tell Mr. Chen that he was willing to be the teacher of the original film. Mrs. Chen was very happy and sent someone to go to the town to report to Chu Yuanwai.

The Chu family also attached great importance to this. The moment they got the news, they hurriedly asked people to prepare a gift. Yuan Wai and his wife rushed to Wangjia Village with their little Shuang'er to visit the new teacher.

Cheng Qing's first impression of Chuying was very good. He is good-looking, not to mention quiet, and he is also educated and reasonable. Standing next to his parents, he basically doesn't speak, but his eyes are particularly watery, which makes Cheng Qing like him. multiply.

"Master Cheng, it's his blessing that my son can follow you to learn how to read and write. Please let us know if you have any problems, and we will try our best to solve them."

Chu Yuanwai was also a very gentle person, with a sincere smile on his face, Cheng Qing didn't feel any displeasure when he saw it.

Cheng Qing smiled: "You two are very polite. I am an ordinary Shuang'er. Today, I am grateful to you two for entrusting my precious Shuang'er to me. I will do my best to teach him well. Don't worry, both of you."

"With your words, my master and I can rest assured." Mrs. Chu asked Chu Ying, who was standing behind her, to kneel down in front of Cheng Qing.

Chu Ying knelt in front of Cheng Qing and kowtowed three times: "Student Chu Ying met the teacher."

Cheng Qing didn't say he was big, so he went up to help Chu Ying up, and said softly, "I don't know what knowledge I can convey to you, but don't worry, as long as I know it, I will help you with all my money, and you will help me." You can study here with peace of mind.”

"Thank you teacher, Chuying will definitely study hard." Chuying also said seriously.

Seeing this, Yuanwai and his wife were also satisfied, and then they left with a group of people, leaving Chu Ying alone.

Cheng Qing asked curiously, "Aren't you going to leave someone with you?"

"I don't like it." Chuying Nuoxuo said: "My parents were afraid that I would get hurt, and they brought a bunch of people to guard me since I was a child, but I really didn't like it, so I told my parents that I was alone. That's fine, sooner or later someone will pick me up."

"Oh..." Cheng Qing nodded: "Are you eight years old today?"

"Well, I'll be nine years old in two months."

"Then have you learned anything?" Cheng Qing was afraid that Chuying would be restrained, so he pulled him to sit in the yard, and asked Xiaoyun to make delicious food and bring it to him.

Cheng Qing handed Chu Ying a piece of pastry, Chu Ying looked at Cheng Qing, took it shyly, and bit his mouth carefully: "Thank you, teacher."

"Don't call me teacher, just call me uncle. I can only teach you something, but the teacher is still not worthy of you." Cheng Qing took a bite himself and thought the taste was good, so he said to Xiaoyun: "You Save some of the cakes, Xiao Shanxia learned how delicious they are. Then send the rest over there for Wang Zhili to eat, I remember he loves this sweet-scented osmanthus cake."

"Hey, I see, let's go now."

"Is Xiaoshan the teacher's son?" Chuying ate the pastry in small bites, and had already eaten a piece before he knew it. He had been educated not to eat the second piece, no matter how much he wanted to eat it.

Cheng Qing nodded: "Yeah, my son. He's not as cute as you. If I were a little twin, I think I should hold him in my hand, and I'd hate to go anywhere with him."

Seeing that Chu Ying wanted to eat, but he didn't dare to move the second piece because of etiquette, Cheng Qing simply picked it up and stuffed it into Chu Ying's hand: "Don't be so restrained here, I said that treating me as an uncle is an uncle. Just eat, you are growing your body anyway, if you don’t eat well, your body will be damaged.”

Chuying was very grateful, but she didn't eat it, she just put the pastry in her hand, and watched Cheng Qing speak seriously.

Cheng Qing had no choice but to let him go: "I asked you just now and you haven't answered me. Have you learned anything?"

"I've learned it. I've learned the Three Character Classic. The last teacher taught the Thousand Character Classic, but I haven't finished teaching it, so I haven't learned anything else."

"It just so happens that I have books here. I'll teach you how to read in the afternoon." Cheng Qing got tired of eating three snacks, so he simply stood up and introduced Chuying about his family.

Chuying listened very seriously, and he kept in mind even the insignificant things, which made Cheng Qing feel that the child must have been too carefree and became stupid.

"Is it possible to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?"

"I learned a little, but I didn't learn well."

"How is the girl's education?"

"My hands are unlucky, so I can't look at the embroidered things. My mother always said that I haven't made any progress at all. It's not good to be a female celebrity, and I will be rejected by my husband's family..." Chuying said in a softer voice, until the end He lowered his head in shame.

Cheng Qing smiled and said, "Have you thought about your in-law's family so soon?"

Chuying said embarrassedly: "My mother said that in two years, I will find my husband's family to get married. Otherwise, I will not be able to get married."

"How is it possible?" Cheng Qing didn't know why Mrs. Chu would say such a thing. If Cheng Qingnianji was similar to Chu Ying, Cheng Qing would most taboo children like Chu Ying, and he would be the target of public criticism: "You are so obedient, why are you so obedient?" Maybe there is no in-law’s family?”

"My mother said that I am stupid and not smart. Although I am obedient, I can't turn the corner. If I get married, I will ruin my life if I don't get the favor of my husband."

"If you can't get it, then don't." Cheng Qing has experienced the kind of life that Chuying said, and it is better not to be so desperate to the point of heartbreak: "Chuying, listen to me, whether it is finding a husband or other things, You must make yourself feel happy and worth it, otherwise you will ruin your life.

It's useless to flatter men like this. Although Shuang'er is not as good as a man, she is not a weak woman. We can stand up to the sky, and we don't need to look at other people's faces, understand? "

"But Shuang'er still has to marry, doesn't she?"

"It's good to marry, but you can't marry someone you don't love, and you can't marry someone who treats you badly."

Chuying wondered: "It's the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker. Before you get married, you don't know who the other party is. How do you know whether you love it or not, how do you know whether it is good or not?"

"Just ask." Cheng Qing took it for granted: "If a person is good, then the neighbors in the neighborhood will naturally say he is good, and he will treat you well. If a person is not good, he may treat you well, but it is also very possible Bad for you."

"Then... did the teacher's husband inquire in the same way?" Chu Ying asked curiously.

Cheng Qing shook his head: "He doesn't need to inquire. We are from the same village. I think he is a good person. He doesn't dislike my background. He is willing to marry me, so I agree to him. After we get married, he treats me very well, Xiaoshan It’s also very good, and I feel very happy and happy.”

"Isn't Xiaoshan the teacher's own child?"

"No. Xiaoshan is a child he picked up when he was young, but he has raised him like his own son since he was a child." Cheng Qing didn't care about telling Wang Xiaoshan's life experience, after all, it was well known.

Chu Ying nodded understandingly: "Then teacher, if I want to get engaged, can the teacher help me find out if that person is good or bad?"

Cheng Qing said with a smile: "Of course, you can call me teacher, and I will naturally treat you well, and naturally want you to live well."

"Young master, uncle is back." Xiao Yun couldn't see Cheng Qing in the yard, so he shouted, hoping Cheng Qing could hear him.

Hearing Xiao Yun's words, Cheng Qing hurriedly dragged Chuying out of the backyard, just in time to see Wang Zhili coming out of the kitchen after washing his face: "Why are you back? Isn't it busy over there?"

"I heard from Xiaoyun that there are guests at home, so I came here." Wang Zhili wrote lightly.

Cheng Qing understood what he meant, there were guests at home, and if he wasn't there, Cheng Qing might not be able to handle it alone, so he made a special trip back.

"Let me introduce you, this is Chuying." Cheng Qing naturally walked to Wang Zhili's side, pointed to Chuying to let Wang Zhili know: "This is my husband, just call him Uncle Wang."

"Hello, Uncle Wang, I am Chuying, a student of the teacher." Chuying has very good etiquette and speaks very politely.

Wang Zhili nodded symbolically: "Chu Yuanwai left, right?"

"Well, I left a long time ago. I was chatting with Chuying just now!"

"Then you go on, I'm going to take a shower, and I won't go there today." Wang Zhili walked to the backyard from the side, and Cheng Qing saw that the time was almost up, so he asked Xiaoyun to get the thousand-character essay from the small study.

Cheng Qing hadn't read the Thousand Characters for a long time, and while explaining the meaning to Chuying, he also relearned it himself.

At first, Chu Ying thought that his parents just thought he was too stupid, so they found him a teacher who didn't have much knowledge at all.

But after hearing Cheng Qing's conversation and profound connotation, not only some coherent thinking in the text, but also a lot of history to explain to him, Chuying really feels that it has benefited a lot, and some obscure things can be understood. Gradually understand.

"Let's stop here today. I'm afraid you won't be able to learn if you talk too much." Cheng Qing closed the book and put it on the table beside him, and said to Chuying, "How is it? Do you feel bored or don't understand?"

Chuying shook her head: "Teacher, what you said is very good. I learned a lot, and I gradually understood some things I didn't understand."

"Really? That would be great." Cheng Qing said happily: "I'm afraid that what I said is not good, and it will make you uncomfortable if you don't understand it."

Chuying took the book that Cheng Qing put on the table, and looked at it seriously. Cheng Qing didn’t bother him, stood up and walked in the yard, remembering that Wang Zhili had gone home but he was gone, asked Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun pointed Behind, Cheng Qing walked slowly to the backyard.

Wang Zhili was chopping firewood, Cheng Qing looked at him displeased, he was sweating even after taking a shower, didn't that mean the same as not taking a shower?

"Didn't you take a good bath?" Cheng Qing stepped forward to help him wipe the sweat off his face: "It's hard to take a rest and you're so busy, can't you just sit and lie down?"

"I'm fine." Wang Zhili was worried that the dirty smell on his body would affect Cheng Qing, so he consciously avoided Cheng Qing's hand wiping his sweat. Cheng Qing felt his dodge, and his face was a little unhappy. Wang Zhili was busy Explained: "I'm afraid I'm dirty, and it won't be good if I mess with you."

Cheng Qing wanted to wipe his sweat with his own clothes: "I don't dislike it or don't care, what do you care about?"
