There are always people who say that it is a good idea to start a family first and then build a career.
There really is a threshold. Once you cross it, you will feel that nothing else in this world is important, except this one thing.
.
Song Niannian was tired from all the trouble and didn't have much on her mind.
All night long until dawn.
When she woke up, there were steaming buns and side dishes on the table.
It seems that these buns come from the auntie next door. She makes them and sets them up at her stall every morning.
The taste is different today. Auntie put a lot of meat filling and green onions in the buns. When you take a bite, the rich juice fills your mouth, as if it is about to overflow.
In this world, there is no technology and no hard work.
Therefore, even the green onions taste particularly fragrant.
But these buns are not cheap, one bun costs one copper coin. For example, she washed so many clothes for people yesterday, and now she has to dry them and return them to the people one by one today.
It was just enough money to buy a few buns... Pei Qinyu finished it all in one breakfast.
.
"Husband, I will definitely get up and cook tomorrow morning." Song Niannian ate buns and pickles while doing some calculations in her mind.
"We can have meat for two meals, but how can we eat this every day?"
Pei Qinyu, "Do you not want to eat, or are you worried that you don't have enough money to eat?"
Song Niannian, "...all of them."
Even the richest person in town would get tired of eating meat buns every day.
Only if you have money can you eat well and stay healthy.
"Then laundryman, if you don't want to, just quit. My monthly salary is meager, but... we will be rich soon." Pei Qinyu said gently.
He looked at his young lady.
I've only recently gotten a good look at her, judging by her face and looks.
I used to think she was a little dim, like the stars hidden behind dark clouds on a moonlit night, vague and leaving no impression.
Now, those almond-shaped eyes seemed to have been cleaned by something, and they were so bright that people couldn't look away once they looked in.
Pei Qinyu looked at her, as if he saw vitality.
He had completely forgotten the reason before. He always avoided Song Niannian, and when she avoided him, he treated her coldly.
From now on, not before, only from now on... He and she will be fine, and she will have everything she wants.
.
Pei Qinyu used to despise bowing and fawning.
But today, no, after yesterday and the day before yesterday, Pei Qinyu and Pei Xiucai who came out of the courtyard were different from before.
Logically, he should go out and go to Master Zheng's house.
I thought of the words to apologize. As long as I pretended to be deaf and endured the humiliation, I could say them... and then endure Master Zheng's snarky and sarcastic ridicule...
Change everything to be happy and return to the original result.
But early this morning, after Pei Qinyu accompanied Song Niannian for breakfast, he went out and bought some pens and ink.
Go straight to the county government office.
It was dawn and the county magistrate was just inspecting the county government office. Pei Qinyu knew all this long ago and just then stopped the county magistrate at the gate of the government office.
"Lord Zheng." Pei Qinyu bowed.
You can't write two characters "Zheng" with one stroke.
This County Magistrate Zheng is related to Master Zheng in some indirect way and is also Master Zheng's backer.
What Pei Qinyu wants to do today is to poach people.
"Yesterday, I was a student who was reckless. I should have apologized to Master Zheng today, but I was so angry that I couldn't help but speak from the bottom of my heart. I wanted to tell the county magistrate a few things..."
Pei Qinyu's attitude is very humble, but his words are sharp.
Although their Qingshui Town is a remote and poor place, it produced prime ministers and ministers a hundred years ago, so the academic atmosphere is very prosperous.
But Master Zheng was old, stubborn, and obstinate.
Pei Qinyu disagreed with him and went to study at the provincial school, where he met the same people as him. On the other hand, in Qingshui Town, everyone was trying to please Master Zheng, which was a waste of his thoughts and frustration.
"Since Master Zheng is unwilling, I am willing to take the initiative and take over the Tianzi and Huangzi classes on my own."
Pei Qinyu spoke more and more fluently as he started talking, and his previous nervousness disappeared completely.
His pair of clear and elegant eyes must have been looking at County Magistrate Zheng.
Double Ten and Crown.
This is the second time in Pei Qinyu's life that he has done such a big thing.
The first time, he knelt in the ancestral hall and almost lost his life, but he also asked for tuition to go to school.
Now, it’s the second time.
County Magistrate Zheng and Master Zheng were from the same family. If Pei Qinyu angered County Magistrate Zheng, she might even lose the salary she used to support her family. How would she explain this to Song Niannian when she returned?
"You should go back to the county school first and let me think about it carefully." County Magistrate Zheng said after a while.
.
In the morning, Master Zheng still did not come.
The Tianzi class in the county school was completely empty, so Pei Qinyu had no choice but to put the students of the Tianzi class and the Huangzi class together.
Before school was over at noon, County Magistrate Zheng came in person.
I received the policy papers from the Tianzi class and the Huangzi class...
Not long after, news came out from the county school that Pei Qinyu would no longer be teaching the Huangzi class, and he would take over Master Zheng's Tianzi class.
As for the Huangzi class, starting tomorrow, we will hire another teacher.
.
Just like that, Pei Qinyu got promoted!
The monthly salary increased by one or two taels of silver from the Huangzi class to the Tianzi class. However, some students whose academic performance was not so good, whose families were concerned about their studies, would sometimes treat the teacher to a banquet and give him a little extra tuition to ask him to help take care of the children after school.
Pei Qinyu took the silver and returned to the courtyard.
This time, it was later than before and he reeked of alcohol.
Mr. Li was well-informed and when he found out that the teacher had been replaced, he immediately sent a visiting card and invited County Magistrate Zheng. Pei Qinyu could not refuse, so she had to go to the banquet with County Magistrate Zheng.
"My dear, have you been drinking?"
Today is another day of cleaning for Song Niannian.
My hands were red and felt a little rough. After cooking, I tinkered with the system in the room, changed the hand cream, and took care of my skin.
"Nian Niang."
When Pei Qinyu entered the room, the first thing she saw was a table full of food.
It wasn't a sumptuous meal, but there were three or four dishes and some meat, though not much.
The squire's house, with its plates of meat and endless wine, was a veritable feast of wine and meat...
When the alcohol wore off, one suddenly felt lost, followed by a sense of apology.
"Sorry, I forgot to send someone back. Let me tell you first."
"It's okay. Anyway, I was in a daze and forgot the time. Otherwise, I should have gone to the county school to see you a long time ago." Song Niannian said with a smile.
She stood up and poured a bowl of water for Pei Qinyu.
It's not something good, it's the water used to cook bean sprouts, with a faint aroma of food.
"Husband, drink the water to sober up."
Pei Qinyu lowered his eyes, took it, drank it in one gulp, put the bowl aside, and suddenly grabbed Song Niannian's wrist, squeezed it hard, and almost pulled her over.
Wait until Song Niannian looks back in pain.
Pei Qinyu suddenly relaxed a little, he lowered his head and looked at her in front of her.
"Nian Niang, I won't be like this again in the future."
This sentence sounds like a reflection and a promise.
.
Pei Qinyu is an extremely self-disciplined person who sets very high standards for himself, almost to the point of being perverted.
