"Brother, I went to discuss this with my second sister-in-law earlier." Sun Meiping said.

Having agreed upon it, the brother and sister got ready to go.

When Zhuangzi looked around, he saw that the roads around Zhuangzi had been successfully connected to the newly acquired mountain, and the people he had invited were working non-stop to build the wall.

Qingsong, Xiaoling and other children were ecstatic when they saw their former friends from Huanghualing.

They were like a herd of wild horses that had broken free from their reins, howling and running wildly up the mountain, as if they had returned to Huanghualing or playing on Lion Mountain again.

Lu Ran and others were worried that the children might get out, so they followed closely.

Qian Chunhua smiled and watched the children leave.

When Sun Meiping walked up to Qian Chunhua and told her their plan, Qian Chunhua thought for a moment and immediately expressed his agreement.

The Sun family has indeed encountered many inconveniences by living in their own home for a long time, and this is one of them.

What’s more important is that the climate is becoming increasingly unpredictable. If a sudden rainstorm comes, I’m afraid even my family will have to move to the village to avoid danger.

In this case, it would not be a wise move to let them move first.

"Zhuangzi, you can stay here without worry. There is no rush to build the house. In this weather, it may rain heavily at any time." Qian Chunhua kindly reminded him.

Sun Meiping nodded. The rule that a long drought will lead to a flood was something that Zhao's mother and her own mother had repeatedly mentioned on the way.

This moment is indeed not a good time to build a house. Even the house that has just been bought in the capital city can be repaired by just repairing the green tiles to prevent it from leaking.

After the negotiation, the Sun family came to the row houses where the tenant farmers lived and prepared the houses they needed to stay in.

Well, the Xu family has already renovated these houses, so they are not afraid of any heavy rain.

Brother Sun and Xu Jiang took their men and drove a horse-drawn carriage back to the capital to move the Li family.

Qian Chunhua found Zhao Yongwen and told him that he wanted to ask him to be the teacher of Lu Ran and others.

Zhao Yongwen agreed without hesitation, but when it came to the question of salary, he shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, please don't give me any salary. I really don't need it!"

Qian Chunhua knew very well that the Zhao family had no assets. Now that they had arrived in the capital, they had no income at all. If they did not collect the money, how would their family make ends meet?

Do I have to continue to depend on Sun Meiping's family and live a life of dependence?

Or do they just rely on the one acre of thin land that their family has just acquired to make ends meet?

Thinking of this, Qian Chunhua couldn't help but get straight to the point: "If you don't stop studying, how will your family survive in the future? Besides, you still need to prepare for the provincial examination."

Zhao Yongwen was stunned at first, then he muttered in a low voice: "Lu Ran and his master have been kind to our family. If I accept the tuition at this time, wouldn't I be an ungrateful disciple?"

It seems that this pedantic scholar has really taken to heart the fact that one should not be an ungrateful person! However, he does not seem to have considered the reality - how can he survive in such a difficult family situation?

Looking at his second sister-in-law's face which was full of dissatisfaction and displeasure, Zhao Yongwen was filled with doubts and puzzlement: What did he do wrong?

He really couldn't understand why he made his second sister-in-law so unhappy.

Qian Chunhua, who was standing by, also felt helpless when he saw this scene, so he started to explain:

"Yongwen, we pay you tuition because you have really put in hard work and sweat for this!

If you are unwilling to stop practicing, then we can only go and find someone to be your teacher."

Hearing this, Zhao Yongwen immediately understood the reason - it turned out that the reason why his second sister-in-law looked suspicious was not because she had any opinion or view on him, but because she was worried that his refusal to accept the salary would put her family in an awkward situation.

At the same time, he also realized that if the stalemate continued, it might really lead to the loss of this opportunity for cooperation. After considering this and weighing the pros and cons again and again, he finally nodded and agreed to end the repair.

Finally, it was agreed that Zhao Yongwen would be given three taels of silver per month as stipend, and the students he would teach would be Lu Ran and his classmates. No matter how many students there were, as long as they were willing to come, they could come. They would have one day off for every nine days of school.

The teaching location was set up in the manor. Anyway, Lu Ran and his friends often went to the manor to work and took the time to study.

When the Sun family's house in Beijing was renovated and moved to Beijing, the teaching location was changed to Qian's house in Beijing, and Zhao Yongwen would come to teach at home.
