Xu Xiangdong was still very sensible and did not rush Xu Xiaoyun to work in the fields just because she was a girl.
Tao Wenwen said, "Okay, I'll go up the mountain with Zhang Kongming and the others tomorrow. If you have time, come with me. I have a few books on medicinal herbs at home. Come with me and take them home to have a look. Studying medicine requires knowing a lot of words, so remember not to fall behind in your studies!"
Xu Xiaoyun glanced at Xu Xiangdong secretly when she heard this. Seeing that Xu Xiangdong didn't express his opinion, she looked at Tao Wenwen with some embarrassment, "Do I have to study? If I don't study, I can't study medicine?"
Tao Wenwen knew that in this era, men were more valued than women, and that even if boys were allowed to study, they would not support girls.
Part of the reason why she said this was to not bury Xu Xiaoyun. Since she was her apprentice, of course she had to be the best!
"If you study medicine without reading books, you can only be a foot doctor when you grow up. Even if your medical skills are invincible, no one will recognize you as a real doctor!" Tao Wenwen explained the seriousness of the matter to Xu Xiaoyun.
Xu Xiaoyun was still young and didn’t understand many things, but he knew that not studying was a bad thing.
Tao Wenwen didn't need Xu Xiaoyun to understand too much, just grasp the key points. The important thing was that Xu Xiangdong could understand it.
Since he was willing to let Xu Xiaoyun study medicine with her, I believe that after listening to her, he would also support Xu Xiaoyun to continue studying.
Sure enough, Xu Xiangdong said, "Xiaoyun, if you want to go to school, then go ahead. I'll take care of all the household chores from now on. You should study hard under Wenwen. Maybe in the future, our family will also have a college student or a great doctor!"
Xu Xiangdong looked forward to the future, "Then you will lead us to live a good life together!"
Xu Xiaoyun was delighted and excited to receive Xu Xiangdong's support. She circled around Tao Wenwen and said, "I want to be as amazing as Sister Wenwen!"
Many people noticed their happiness. Xu Xiaoyun had a bright and lovely smile, and some of the people around her also smiled.
Only Sun Wenyan secretly sneered and turned her head away.
Xu Xiangdong was not someone who would cause trouble. He glanced at Sun Wenyan and turned his head silently.
The land distribution finally began. Xu Wenhai presided over the overall situation and explained the rules to everyone. First, numbers were drawn to determine the order in which everyone would draw the land, and then the locations of the land were drawn according to the order.
Both Tao Wenwen and Xu Xiangdong were lucky. She drew number 8 and Xu Xiangdong drew number 13.
After everyone's numbers were determined, they started drawing the locations of the fields. The people with the numbers in the front were drawn quickly, and soon it was Tao Wenwen's turn. She didn't know the specific location and couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, so she showed it to Xu Xiangdong after drawing.
Xu Xiangdong explained the location to her, which was right next to the cornfield he was currently in charge of.
When Tao Wenwen heard him talk about the cornfield, she knew it was not far from the Tao family and was close to the river. If she wanted to use it to grow herbs in the future, it would be very convenient for watering.
The land hasn't even been allocated yet, but Tao Wenwen has already planned what to do in the future!
It was finally Xu Xiangdong's turn. He was quite nervous and didn't dare to look after he finished drawing. He hesitated for a while before opening it.
What they got was a cornfield!
Xu Xiangdong looked at the result in surprise. After so long, his land and Tao Wenwen's land were drawn together.
Today they were just drawing the results first. The official time for dividing the land would be after all the crops in the fields were harvested. After the drawing, there was nothing else to do, so they staggered back home.
When some people are happy, others are sad.
The number Sun Wenyan drew was the last, and the geographical location of the field she drew was not good either.
Is this probably the result of evil deeds?
