The next day, Song Shuxi and Tiantian gathered in her yard.
Rocking in the recliner, thinking about the rest of my life.
The two held teacups and toasted each other.
Song Shuqian said, "I was so stupid. I thought it was too simple. I thought all military areas were the same, and the most I could get out of here was that the natural environment was a little bit worse. But I didn't expect that all kinds of environments were bad.
Moreover, people here do not dry vegetables in the autumn, but store sauerkraut and put potatoes, radishes and cabbages in the cellar to last through the winter.
If they only eat these, I’m worried that the children won’t get enough nutrition and won’t be able to grow big in the future. "
Tiantian touched her head and said, "It's not hot, why are you talking nonsense? Look at those Mongolian men, which one is short?
Here, I can’t guarantee anything else, but the meat is fine.
About 100 kilometers north of here, there are pastoral areas where every household raises sheep.
When the weather gets cooler, we’ll go and exchange a few for more, enough to last us the winter.
Next year, we will raise our own sheep. I have asked and each family is allowed to raise two sheep. "
"No, there is a limit on the quantity?" Song Shuqian was incredulous. "Look at these families living in the family compound. They live a hard life and it's hard for them to even have enough to eat."
Tiantian explained, "The number of sheep eating grass is calculated by the military district, and it will not harm the nearby grasslands. If there are more, it may affect the recovery of the grasslands next spring."
After hearing what Tiantian said, Song Shuqian could accept it. People have to look at the long-term.
She said, "Okay, then just two. I will go to the pastoral area to exchange them myself.
Before leaving Huludao, I left my contact information with the village chief's aunt who I often exchanged things with. I still exchanged dried vegetables and shrimps from there and she mailed them to me. "
Tiantian also said, "I found the guy in the black market. It's safe with him around."
Now, the problem of storing supplies for the winter for both families was solved at once.
For the rest, just follow your sisters-in-law.
After the problem was solved, the two people were no longer anxious.
I just think the clouds in Inner Mongolia are really beautiful. The sky seems a little low, as if I can reach them with my hand.
The blue sky and white clouds are so beautiful.
Song Shuqian began to care about the two children's schooling, "Where are you going to send your Sihu to school?" Tiantian shrugged mischievously, "With An'an and Lele, wherever they go, he will go."
Song Shuxi...well, she should have thought of it earlier.
“I checked out the nearby schools.
There is one primary school each in our staff compound, Dafa Village, and Shinie Village.
Among them, Dafa Village is the largest, with one class for each grade.
In the other two schools, everyone studies in the same class.
As for the quality of teaching, I guess they are all about the same.
What is taught in primary schools nowadays is generally superficial.
Parents don’t really take their children’s education seriously. They basically just let them go to school for a few years and get a diploma. "Tiantian agreed with what Song Shuxi said, and she also knew some inside information.
“On paper, the graduation certificate is an exam, but in fact, there are gifts and other things.
The Dafa Village you mentioned has a very famous thing.
There were a few naughty boys who needed a junior high school diploma, but the principal did not issue it to them according to regulations.
The next day, the principal's chimney was knocked down.
After that, whenever they built a chimney, it would be torn down the next day.
Still can't catch anyone.
The principal couldn't stand it anymore, so he just issued graduation certificates to those naughty boys."
Song Shuqian was stunned when she heard this. This... this was too disrespectful to teachers.
Tiantian curled her lips and said, "Today's teachers are afraid of students."
Song Shuqian nodded, "It seems that my arrangement is correct. The three of them will go to the primary school in the staff quarters.
The main things you learn are how to live in a group; how to manage a team and get everyone to work together; how to communicate with different people; and how to establish your own prestige, how to select subordinates and make them follow you wholeheartedly. "This time it was Tiantian's turn to be confused, "No, children go to school, why do they need to learn these things? Are you raising your children properly?"
She was so anxious that she sat up straight. Song Shuqian signaled her to be patient and explained, "They definitely can't work alone in the future. No matter what they do, they need someone to help them. So, how to select people, how to get along with people, and how to lead a team are very important.
In fact, if you look at Wei Jianguo, Liu Xinguo and others, part of their work also involves these contents.
These are not innate skills. Instead of letting them learn from failure when they grow up, it is better to learn them from a young age.
This is called personal charm. "
Tiantian was convinced for some unknown reason, but she always felt something was wrong.
She asked, "What about knowledge? Is what is taught in school enough?"
Song Shuqian continued to explain, "Of course it is not enough. So I plan to let the three children become little teachers in the name of going to school.
If you want to speak, you must first understand it yourself. That's good for all three of them.
In addition, you can also help Teacher Zhao share the work.
Teacher Zhao is not the only junior high school graduate in the staff quarters, and the school is not completely short of teachers. We have been here for such a long time, but there is no news of recruiting. This means that Teacher Zhao was afraid that someone would take her job, so she did not report the shortage.
Three children can't take away her job.
It's better for her too.
Finally, this is also good for the children who go to school. It's not that I'm conceited, but my perspective is different. What I can teach is probably better than what Teacher Zhao can teach by reading the textbook.
I teach my three children myself, and they then teach what they have learned to their classmates.
Kill three birds with one stone, that’s what I planned. "

Tiantian clapped, "You are awesome. Are the three kids willing?"
"If we explain this to them carefully and tell them the pros and cons of doing this, they should agree.
If it really doesn't work, I'll show weakness.
My mother was indeed worried that it was too far for them to go to school elsewhere. They were too young and I would definitely be uneasy without them by my side.
Maybe I accompany them to and from school every day.
The children are all filial and don’t want to see their mother sad. "Tiantian gave a thumbs up.
I don’t know how Song Shuxi taught them, but the three children all listened to her.
Now that the school issue has been resolved, I feel relieved and can finally rest assured.
Tiantian began to care about Song Shuqian's work, "How do you arrange your work?"
“There are two arrangements now. One is to go to the steel plant in Cuiyuan City and go to the technical department.
I used to be a translator and have read a lot of professional books. My professional knowledge is no worse than that of today's college students.
In addition, if there are equipment imported from abroad or experts invited, my foreign language skills can come in handy.
Another option is to go to the Xinhua Bookstore in Cuiyuan City and continue doing translation. But there are not many things that need to be translated here, so they can't offer me a specific position. I can only be paid according to work, and I earn money for each book I translate. "Tiantian asked, "Which one do you prefer?"
"Translate it. I have to leave home to work at the steel mill, and my two children are still young and need someone to be with them. I also don't want to separate them from Wei Jianguo.
Also, I prefer literature to technology.
Besides, translation is more flexible and I have time to teach a few children. "What Song Shuqian didn't say was that there are too few books for children to read nowadays, and she wanted to write a few books while teaching the children, and publish them when the environment is right.
She didn't have such a great idea, which was just to give children who could afford to buy books more choices.
Tiantian gave a thumbs up again and said, "Tell me, have you become a smart person?"
Song Shuqian rolled her eyes at her and said, "I call this making rational use of existing resources."
