Song Lizheng couldn't help but shed tears, "Okay, good children, as long as you are all well, grandpa will be satisfied."
He was moved by the children's actions.
Who doesn’t like a grateful child? He is willing to lend a helping hand to such children.
Humph, Song Shitou and Song Sanzhu are both fools. They pushed such a good child away.
If he were to say, Chunsheng is much better than Song Dalang and Song Erlang. You have the courage to grit your teeth and lead your brothers and sisters to live on their own. This courage is admirable.
Besides, this kid doesn't just know how to fight blindly, he has a plan in mind.
Now looking at San Ya, Wu Ya, and Xiao Qiu Sheng, they are all quite good.
These four children have to grow up, and it really proves the saying: Don't despise the young and poor.
It's just that Song Shitou's family doesn't treat these children as human beings. It's really unreasonable.
The reason why Song Jinxiu did this was that she wanted to let the head of the village know, and through the head of the village, Song Fuquan, she wanted to tell everyone in Songjia Village that her brothers and sisters all knew how to be grateful.
Only when the head of the village fully recognized them and the villagers accepted them, instead of passively helping these children who had severed ties with their biological father, could they be helped. Life is better in the village.
"Grandpa Lizheng, please take this money back and return it to everyone. I know that this is the food money that the uncles and aunts saved from their teeth."
Song Chunsheng handed the purse back to the head of the village. Seeing the head of the village shaking his head, he quickly explained:
"I don't need amputation now, I just need to fix my bones, which won't cost much. San Ya and Wu Ya helped the clinic to make medicine, and they also received rewards from the nobles, so we have enough money now, I don't want this money anymore."
The eldest sister took five taels of silver. Except for Xiao Qiu Sheng, who didn't know the amount, the three siblings had discussed it and decided that this matter must not be known to anyone.
Speaking of my mother's hairpin, even if the Song family knew about it, they would be too embarrassed to make trouble.
But if they knew that they had such a huge sum of money in their hands, the Song family would probably take their lives and come back at all costs to get it back.
Therefore, no one can tell this matter.
Therefore, Song Chunsheng said that his two sisters did things for others and received rewards from noble people. It also provides an excuse for me to spend too much money later.
Seeing that he was serious, the head of the village couldn't help but look up to him even more.
He can refuse the money that is handed to him. This child is not greedy and has excellent character.
"Okay, then grandpa will give it back first," he said, taking out a tael of silver from his purse and saying, "This is what grandpa gave me himself, I must take it."
Song Chunsheng did not refuse this time. He was afraid that if he didn't take it, the village head would be angry.
Well, they have yet to repay the favor to the village head, so in the end, they will become filial to their real grandfather.
The village chief Song Fuquan sat for a while and prepared to leave.
"While I'm in the county town, I'll go to Chunshan Academy to see your brother Fusheng. Chunsheng, take good care of your injuries. I'll come back to see you in two days."
Song Jinxiu quickly brought up the eggs and said, "Grandpa Lizheng, give these eggs to Brother Fusheng. Brother Fusheng's studies require a lot of brain power, and these eggs can help him to improve his brain."
Song Fuquan quickly waved his hands and refused to take the basket.
"No, no, these eggs were collected by the villagers for Chunsheng. You don't have to keep the money, but you must keep these eggs."
The head of the village also said with a sullen face: "Well, you little girl, you are being too polite. Leave the eggs here. Your brother Fusheng will have eggs to eat. Don't bother me anymore."
After saying that, he stood up, waved to Chunsheng, and walked out.
Song Jinxiu had no choice but to put down the basket and follow behind to see him off.
"Grandpa Lizheng, do you have a list of the villagers who donated money? Give us a copy. We need to know who these favors are for."
The head of the village did not stop walking. He glanced at her and said with a smile, "Don't you want the money? If you don't take the money, you don't have to repay this favor."
Song Jinxiu hurriedly took two steps to catch up and said, "That won't do. Although the silver was confiscated, we have received the kindness. And those eggs, the gift is small but the sentiment is great. Grandpa Lizheng, please tell us. If we don't know about such a great kindness, we will not be able to sleep well."
The head of the village stopped, looked at her and nodded.
"What a saying that goes 'a small gift is worth a lot of thought'. You are such a good kid."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Song Jinxiu.
"I remember all the names on this list, including who contributed how much money. I copied this for you. I still have a copy at home."
After seeing off the village head and his father, Song Jinxiu returned to the ward.
The four siblings stared at the paper filled with names.
Song Jinxiu blinked and then realized it.
Oh, the four of them are so blind!
But the problem is that she knows these words, so why is she pretending to be blind?
Do you still want to read out this list?
No, no, don’t let your brother treat you as a monster.
We have to think of a way to make our literacy come legitimately and logically.
"Brother, I know some words. I learned them secretly from Brother Dalang when he was in school. But I'm not sure if I know them correctly. How about I go find someone to ask?" Song Jinxiu asked tentatively.
Song Chunsheng didn't doubt him and frowned, saying, "Brother Dalang also taught me to write my own name, but I don't know these three characters. I'm afraid you won't be able to recognize many characters even if you learn secretly. Besides, we don't know anyone here, who can we ask?"
Song Jinxiu was speechless.
"I got it, brother. I have an idea." Song Jinxiu slapped his forehead.
"What method?" Song Chunsheng asked.
"Wait for me here. I'll be back soon."
Song Jinxiu remembered that there was a bookstore across the street.
She hurried out of the clinic and into the bookstore. I spent half an ounce of silver to buy the Three Character Classic.
Song Chunsheng looked at the book in his hand and asked in confusion: "Why did you buy the book?"
If you don't know how to read, isn't it a waste of time to buy books?
Song Jinxiu smiled and said, "Brother, this book is called Three Character Classic. Brother Dalang memorized it at home a while ago. Do you remember what he memorized?"
Song Chunsheng thought for a moment and said, "Oh, I do remember two verses from the Three Character Classic: Man is born good. But even though I remember these two verses, I don't know the characters, right?"
Song Jinxiu laughed, "Hehe, it doesn't matter if you don't know it. Let's compare it word by word. Don't you know it now?"
Song Jinxiu pointed to the three characters "Three Character Classic" on the cover and said, "These three characters are called the Three Character Classic. We read and write them. In this way, we can recognize characters, right?"
Song Chunsheng's eyes lit up. Laughing:
"You're really smart, Sanya. I haven't thought of it yet."
If he could have thought of this idea before, he would have memorized more of the books that Dalangge had memorized.
"Brother, my name is Jinxiu, why do you still call her San Ya?" Song Jinfang protested dissatisfiedly. "Also, my name is Jinfang, so please stop calling me Wuyawuya."
"Okay, okay, brother is wrong. I will never call you San Ya again. No, I won't call you Jinxiu or Jinfang."
Song Chunsheng quickly bowed and apologized, and the two sisters laughed. Even Xiao Qiusheng covered his mouth, shrugged his shoulders, and laughed.
With the book, the four brothers and sisters put their heads together and began to learn to recognize words by following the book and comparing them word by word based on their memory.
