The white-bearded old man, who couldn't figure it out, decided to ask humbly. When he saw someone passing by, he decided that it was her. So Lin Zihan, who had just arrived here, was stopped by someone.
“When the granaries are full, people know etiquette; when they have enough food and clothing, they know honor and disgrace.” Even though he knew that the person in front of him was a high-ranking official from the capital, Lin Zihan did not show any fear and said lightly.
But when Lin Zihan opened his mouth, the white-bearded old man was even more surprised. How could anyone he randomly grabbed be so cultured? No way, no way.
"The girl is well-educated and well-mannered. Could she be the daughter of some wealthy family?" the white-bearded old man asked tentatively. No way, could it be that everyone leaving Linjia Village is of some standard?
When Lin Zihan looked at the white-bearded old man again, her eyes were filled with sympathy. This man had become a high-ranking official, but his brain was not very good. She had just come out of school. Was it so difficult to tell that she was from Linjia Village?
Seeing Lin Zihan's changed expression, the old man with white beard was confused, "Is there something on my face?"
"No, you are worrying too much. I am a girl from Linjia Village. It's just that here, we girls can also go to school." Lin Zihan explained with a hint of pride!
She also went out and saw the world. It turned out that the school for girls was really unique to Linjia Village, and all this was only because they had Sister Ye in Linjia Village, oh, Princess Yongqing.
The old man with white beard stroked his white beard, surprised but as if it was natural. "No wonder, then your village just lets her do whatever she wants?"
Although the white-bearded old man spoke vaguely, Lin Zihan immediately understood what he meant. The "she" he was referring to should be Sister Wanwan.
"I don't agree, but Sister Wanwan is rich, and no one will disagree. Even if everyone doesn't agree at the beginning, it will get better slowly later on." Lin Zihan explained that money is sometimes important and sometimes not important.
She also clearly remembered that at the beginning everyone united to oppose it, but Sister Wanwan gave concessions to the whole village and everyone was forced to accept it. But later, every household gradually made money, and through Sister Wanwan they saw that women had abilities and could achieve something, so gradually fewer and fewer people opposed it.
"As long as life is prosperous, those old prejudices seem to gradually disappear. Everyone works together, and life gets better and better. Eventually, no one needs to tell them to stop; everyone will take the initiative to study and learn skills," Lin Zihan said with a smile, then added, "As Sister Wanwan would say, this is a virtuous cycle."
The old man with white beard nodded uncontrollably, then cursed himself in his heart when he came to his senses. It was strange. He came here to find fault, so how could he think what others said made sense?
Lin Zihan didn't get a reply, so he politely said, "If you have nothing else to do, sir, I'll be there first."
The old man with white beard waved his hand casually, his expression was unpredictable, as if he had swallowed a fly.
"Here, I brought this for you. Aunt Li said she didn't make much of this today. Thinking you might like it, I brought one for you." Seeing Lin Zihan coming over, Ye Wanwan handed the croissant in her hand over to him.
Lin Zihan took the croissant and said sweetly, "Thank you, Sister Wanwan."
"Be good, I'll go see those little ancestors first." Ye Wanwan also smiled, very doting. In order to prevent them from ruining this happy day, she did not let them come out to join in the fun.
Hearing Ye Wanwan's name, Lin Zihan also laughed. It was the first time he saw Sister Wanwan so helpless. It was really rare.
Meanwhile, the group of little ancestors were feasting in the prepared room, eager to try everything. Some were even quarreling over a bite of food, making the place very lively.
"What did you eat a few days ago? This roast duck is so delicious. I'm going to buy ten of them tomorrow to satisfy my hunger." Han Zhengfei's voice came early in the morning, and Ye Wanwan couldn't help laughing.
This kid really has high aspirations! He even has ten of them. If he can finish one in one go, he's already considered quite capable.
"What's wrong? Did I treat you badly a few days ago?" Ye Wanwan pushed open the door and said with a smile.
Han Zhengfei took a sip of hot tea and immediately started flattering him. "That's not the case. The teacher is very kind to us. It's just that the food today was so delicious that I was a little bit careless."
Ye Wanwan has become immune to Han Zhengfei's smooth talk these days. It's not that she thinks too badly of him, but this guy is definitely up to some bad things.
"The accommodation has been arranged. Someone will take you there later. Have a good rest today. It won't be so easy starting tomorrow." Ye Wanwan came here to give a friendly reminder. She might not have much time later, so she could only say it now.
I don’t know if it was because of the comfort of the delicious food, but those who were eating didn’t have any big reaction. They just nodded one after another, which seemed to indicate that they understood.
Seeing this, Ye Wanwan stopped disturbing them and just quietly retreated. The place where the little ancestors lived had been cleaned up long ago. They were all single rooms, which was very nice.
Night falls quietly, moonlight shines on the entire earth, and the summer fireflies come out early, adding a touch of mystery to the quiet atmosphere.
Ye Wanwan leaned on Lin Xu'an's shoulder, staring blankly at the crescent moon in the sky. The sounds of children chatting and cicadas chirping came to her ears. She was originally quietly missing home, but slowly fell asleep.
Feeling a lot heavier on his shoulders, Lin Xu'an turned his head slightly and saw Ye Wanwan sleeping. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't dare to move. He just looked at her quietly, thinking that he would take her in after she fell asleep.
Unlike the peaceful life here, the white-bearded old man over there who tried to blend in with the group of kids, after realizing that he could never achieve his goal, could only follow Bai Qingwu and participate in their activities.
Lin Yu, who was already drunk, took out the fruit wine that he usually didn't want to drink, poured a full glass for everyone, and said enthusiastically, "Let's drink together, drink."
"Hello! I kept it a secret from you all before, so I'll punish myself with a drink first." Bai Qingwu cooperated and drank a glass of wine. He had finally said goodbye to his past grievances and entanglements.
Thinking of the letter Rong Chen had written asking him to return, Bai Qingwu took a big gulp of wine and said, "From now on, I'll stay here as a teacher. Please don't despise me."
"No way. We don't have any relationship. I'm so happy that you stay here." Lin Yu patted Bai Qingwu's shoulder and raised his glass.
