"When it's pickled, give some to our aunt and Uncle Dongkui to try."
Old Mrs. Ye added, “Remember to send some to the village chief’s family and Qingyuan’s family as well.
"The village chief has helped our family a lot. Qingyuan even came to help you plow the soil a few days ago!"
"Yes, yes, mother has thought of everything carefully." Mrs. Ye nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that Ye Dasao had been pounding her lower back, Sister-in-law Ye San said, "Sister-in-law, let me make dinner. You go back to your room and rest for a while."
Mrs. Ye was just about to say that she was not tired when she saw the door curtain sway slightly and Qingtian's little head poked in from outside.
Immediately afterwards, Xiaoye also poked his head in from below.
The two little ones looked up at her together.
"Mom, are you done with your work?" Qingtian asked.
"Are you done? What's up?" Mrs. Ye hurried over and asked her daughter.
"Didn't you say you wanted to learn to read with me?" Qingtian said seriously, "But you've been busy since you came back from the capital and haven't learned from me yet!"
When the women in the family heard that Mrs. Ye wanted to learn to read, they were all a little surprised.
Second and third sisters-in-law of Ye thought that this was just something that eldest sister-in-law of Ye said casually to coax Qingtian to learn to read, and they even found Qingtian's seriousness a little funny.
But Old Lady Ye said, "It's better to be able to read a little than to be blind. Go with the children and let the third daughter-in-law prepare dinner."
Third Sister Ye thought that Old Lady Ye was talking about Qingtian, and she also said: "Yes, sister-in-law, you should go and accompany Qingtian. I can still cook for our own family."
Mrs. Ye then followed Qingtian back to the room and found that Qingtian had already set up the kang table and placed the four treasures of the study on it.
"Mom, let me teach you the simplest words first. They were taught to me by Mr. Wei before."
Qingtian picked up the pen and wrote the three words "Heaven", "Earth" and "Man" on the paper. Then he pointed at each word seriously and began to teach Mrs. Ye to read them.
"Mother, this word is pronounced as tian, which means sky."
"It's also our sunny day."
"Yes! It's the word 'tian'!"
"How do you pronounce the second word?"
"Mom, you learn the first word first, and then I'll teach you the second one!"
Although Qingtian still speaks in a baby voice, he really looks like the real deal when teaching Mrs. Ye.
Soon, all three characters were taught, and Mrs. Ye said that she had memorized them all, but she encountered problems when learning to write.
Mrs. Ye never expected that she could do all the work at home and in the fields, but she failed because of a small brush.
I hold this pen in my hand, but it really doesn't obey me!
I want to write horizontally, but I can't write it straight.
Not to mention the left and right strokes, there is no way to tell where they will lead.
Mrs. Ye immediately understood Ye Changrui.
Before, everyone in the family asked him why his handwriting was so bad that he had to take time out to practice.
Now that she has written it herself, she realizes that it is really difficult to write!
Thinking of this, and looking at the three words written by Qingtian, I find them more and more pleasing to the eye.
Mrs. Ye suddenly reached out and hugged Qingtian, kissed her on the cheek and said, "My daughter is amazing! She can write so well right after just starting to learn!"
Qingtian was so surprised that she didn't react at all. After being kissed, she quickly struggled to get up from Sister Ye's arms and tried to keep a straight face and said, "Mom, I'm teaching you how to write! You have to study hard and not be distracted."
Although she said so, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
Finally, he slipped into Sister Ye's arms and said coquettishly, "Oh, Mom, you have to study hard and don't disturb me!"
"Okay, Mom will study hard." Mrs. Ye hugged her sweet and soft daughter, and her heart softened like a pool of water.
Qingtian lay in her arms and talked about his plan. "Fifth brother has just started learning. From now on, I will ask him every day what new characters he has learned so that he can learn with her."
Hearing Qingtian say this, Sister Ye suddenly asked: "Qingtian, do you want to go to school with your brothers?
"If you want, Mom will ask for you and see if you can go to a private school, okay?"
Qingtian shook her head and said, "Mom, no need. I don't want to go."
"Why?" Mrs. Ye asked curiously, "Don't you think you like reading and writing?"
In fact, her brothers had all gone to private schools before, and Qingtian was very envious. She even secretly ran to the private school to listen to the teacher's lectures.
But she was discovered by her husband as soon as she went there once and was kicked out immediately. He also said that it was useless for many girls to study and learn to read.
So Qingtian knew that the private school teacher in the village would never accept her as a student.
However, she thought that Mrs. Ye might be sad to know this, so she thought for a moment and said, "The teacher in the private school spoke too slowly. I remembered everything after listening to it once. It was so boring.
"Besides, I am now considered half a student of Mr. Wei. I don't want to recognize anyone else as my teacher."
This made sense, so Mrs. Ye didn't delve into it further.
"Okay, then you should learn to read first, and Mom and Dad should work hard together, so we can move to the capital as soon as possible, okay?"
"Okay!" This time Qingtian agreed very readily.
She still remembered what Mrs. Ye had said before, that there was a girls' school in the capital.
All the students who go there are girls.
Just thinking about it makes people feel particularly beautiful.
The mother and daughter wrote in the house for a while, and then they heard noisy footsteps in the yard.
"The brothers are back!" Qingtian immediately became a little restless.
Mrs. Ye said, "It's almost time for dinner when they get back, so why don't we stop here today?
