Chapter 254 Are You Stupid?

"Sister, all the sugarcanes have been registered, and all the silver and money received have also been registered!" Xiao Jiayuan handed the registered notebook to Xiao Jiuyue. Xiao Jiayuan recorded the names, the amount of sugarcane collected, the amount of silver received, and pressed his fingerprints in the notebook. The records were clear!

"Not bad." Xiao Jiuyue took a look at the table that was made according to her method. Although there were no table lines, Xiao Jiayuan exercised well. Although there were no table lines, what Xiao Jiayuan recorded was still as clear as if there were table lines.

"Jiayuan, from today on, all the account books for collecting sugarcane will be your responsibility. Copy all of this in the evening and make a daily and monthly list! It will be convenient to check it later." Xiao Jiuyue directly arranged the work for Xiao Jiayuan!

"Sister, don't worry, I can definitely do it!" Xiao Jiayuan's eyes sparkled with excitement. He felt extremely happy to be able to help Xiao Jiuyue!

"Okay, let's go to school!" Xiao Jiuyue said with a smile. The busy morning passed quickly.

Xiao Jiayuan turned around and grabbed Xiao Jiachen and ran away, saying, "Jiachen, let's go quickly. I don't know what the teacher is going to talk about today!"

"Miss, Li Zheng Wang is looking for you." The news came from the doorman. Xiao Jiuyue was about to go to the workshop to start making sugar with sugarcane. After hearing what Li Zheng Wang said, she went straight to the gate of the mansion.

"Miss Xiao." When Li Zheng Wang saw Xiao Jiuyue, his face was full of smiles. He bowed deeply to Xiao Jiuyue. Xiao Jiuyue quickly stepped aside and said, "Li Zheng Wang, please speak frankly."

"Miss Xiao, can my grandson, our villager, go to school?" Wang Lizheng looked at Xiao Jiuyue eagerly, his eyes full of pleading. "My grandson Chuanrong is very smart and is particularly suitable for studying."

"Is it your grandson who wants to go to school, or do all the children in your village want to go?" Xiao Jiuyue's eyes flashed slightly. Nowadays, Nanyue values ​​culture over military affairs, and everything is inferior except for studying. This is not just talk.

Take the only two scholars in Fu'an Village, one is Shi Youchang from the headman's family, and the other is Song Changwen from the Song family. The headman's family has always been better off than ordinary families, whether it is land or money, they are more affluent!

In Song Changwen's family, several brothers supported Song Changwen to go to school. He had just passed the examination for student status and had not yet passed the examination for scholar status, but his reputation was already very high. Once before, Xiao Jiuyue met Song Changwen's mother, and the way Song's mother looked at her was as if she was superior.

If he passes the exam and becomes a scholar, the Song family will probably think that only a princess is worthy of their son, right?

"My grandson definitely wants to go, and the children in the village must also want to go, but I'm not sure how many." Wang Lizheng didn't finish his words. As the head of the village, if he only thought about his grandson and ignored the children in the village, he wouldn't have to see anyone when he returned to the village!

No matter whether the children go or not, we must strive for it!

Xiao Jiuyue pondered for a while, then replied, "I don't care about the school. If you want to go, you can go to Mr. Jiang. If Mr. Jiang is willing to accept you, then you can go to the school!"

"Miss Xiao, you built the school, why can't you make the decision? As long as Miss Xiao is willing to speak..." Wang Lizheng was so anxious that he even spoke in dialect. Shi Lizheng beside him pulled him back and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, Mr. Jiang said before that as long as the child is willing to learn and has good character, he is willing to accept him!"

"Let's not bother Miss Xiao about this matter." Shi Lizheng said, saying goodbye to Xiao Jiuyue while pulling Wang Lizheng away. Wang Lizheng felt uneasy and kept looking back. Shi Lizheng pulled him away and said, "Brother Wang, are you stupid?"

"Brother Shi, I'm indeed not as smart as you." Wang Lizheng looked like he was willing to listen to advice, and there was sincerity in his eyes when he looked at Shi Lizheng!

Ishigami: “…”

Not far away, Xiao Jiuyue saw this scene and couldn't help but curl her lips. Wang Lizheng is a practical man without any ulterior motives. He is only concerned about the common people. Wan'an Village is lucky to have such a headman!

When Xiao Jiuyue arrived at the workshop, he happened to see Aunt He carrying sugarcane there. She brought all the sugarcane into the house and arranged them so neatly!

"Lianxin, call Mama Geng, Mama Wang, and Mama Liu from the kitchen."

Xiao Jiuyue thought of several mothers in the kitchen. Mother Geng’s cooking was delicious, Mother Wang was very good at making stews and dim sum, and Mother Liu helped her make chestnut chicken last time, and she was also very good at it!

"Yes." Lianxin responded, and soon called the three mothers to the workshop.

"Miss." Mother Geng, Mother Wang, and Mother Liu looked at each other, and all three of them looked at Xiao Jiuyue with confused expressions.

"I need help in the workshop. Who of you is willing to go from the kitchen to the workshop?" Xiao Jiuyue went straight to the point. The workshop needed people she completely trusted, and the three mothers in front of her all came here from Shengjing. Not only did they sign a death contract, but their entire family, including sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren, were all in the Xiao family!

"I'm willing." Mother Geng said directly: "Miss, as long as you say the word, I will do anything!"

When Mother Wang saw this, she immediately said, "Miss, I'm willing too."

"Miss, I know how to cook sugarcane and brown sugar." Mother Liu said unwillingly.

Seeing that the three people were about to fight, Xiao Jiuyue gave a look and the three mothers immediately stopped talking, stood obediently in front of Xiao Jiuyue, and tried to smile!

"I've sensed the sincerity of the three mothers, but the workshop only needs one person." Xiao Jiuyue's gaze swept over the three mothers, finally landing on Mother Liu: "Can you boil sugarcane and brown sugar?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Mother Liu nodded excitedly and said, "Miss, I made this before when I was in Shengjing. I see there's so much sugarcane, I can make some brown sugar myself. If it's stored well, it will be fine until next year."

"You talk as if everyone knows how to make it." Mother Geng muttered softly. She smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Miss, I can make brown sugar from sugarcane too. It's very simple, but the method is a little complicated."

Xiao Jiuyue looked at Mother Wang and asked, "Mother Wang can do it too?"

Mother Wang, who was named, paused and said, "Yes."

"Then how about this? The three of you will take turns, each of you watching over the workshop for seven days." Xiao Jiuyue said directly, "That way, everyone can come to the workshop to work, and then we'll see who is more suitable for the workshop."

Competition is a good thing. Xiao Jiuyue said, "Let Mother Geng take over the workshop today."

Xiao Jiuyue directly called out Geng's mother's name and asked, "Geng's mother, come to the workshop, what about the kitchen work..."

"Miss, my eldest daughter-in-law, Zhu, is also a good cook. She has been helping in the kitchen before." Mother Geng immediately pushed her daughter-in-law out.
