Chapter 96: Tea and Chat



There were only a few people in Class C. In addition to Xie Wenwu who was cooking at home, Zhou Zheng also left.

After Zhou Xiaohu learned that Zhou Zheng had dropped out of school, he made an appointment with Ma Long to go find Zhou Zheng together that day.

I don’t know what the three of them talked about. After returning home, they both felt a little confused.

The one who has the best chance of being promoted to the next grade in Class C is naturally Chen Shu.

The performances of the other few are pretty good, but even they themselves don't believe that there is any possibility of further development.

"So, this is why you came to see me?"

Song Yuehua and Xiaoyu, along with Dabao and Xiaobao, were making tea and resting in the yard when Zhou Xiaohu and Ma Long came to their door.

Zhou Xiaohu is fine, Ma Long and Song Yuehua have not spoken to this kid in private yet.

Besides, shouldn't she go to Master Yi at this time? She didn't know much about their academic situation.

Zhou Xiaohu said, "If I tell my family, they will definitely scold me and tell me to put my mind in the right place. I know what they will say without asking me."

Ma Long also nodded and said, "My family's situation is almost the same."

Song Yuehua has never been raised by her biological parents, and the director of the orphanage is not a friendly person. I wonder if all parents in the world are like this.

Xiaoyu pursed her lips and said nothing. Her parents never said such things to her.

Since the question was asked to her, Song Yuehua analyzed it seriously, "Studying is not necessarily for the purpose of passing the imperial examinations. It is also very important to be able to read and understand reason and wisdom."

"Xiaolong is only 6 years old. You don't need to think about these problems. Just study hard. Whether you become a carpenter, a mason or something else in the future, every bit of your hard work now will be rewarded to you at some point in the future."

Ma Long thought about it seriously and said, "The teacher said that there is a golden house in the book. This should be what Sister Song meant."

"Is that the case?" Zhou Xiaohu scratched his head.

Song Yuehua, "..."

Malone nodded, "Yes."

Zhou Xiaohu asked Song Yuehua, "I'm already 12 years old, what should I do?"

Zhou Zheng dropped out of school at the age of 11 to learn a craft, so at his age, he must be even more anxious.

Song Yuehua comforted him, "Xiaohu, you are only 12 years old, not old."

Zhou Xiaohu: “…” He was not comforted.

"Since your family has no arrangements for the time being, you just need to study hard. When you encounter something you want to do in the future, it will not be too late to discuss and decide then." Song Yuehua said.

Zhou Lizheng was still obsessed with studying, but Song Yuehua could see that Zhou Xiaohu was not cut out for studying. It was enough for him to learn all the characters, be able to read and write, and not be cheated in the future.

Zhou Xiaohu said, "I quite like cooking with Lao Xie."

"Cook?"

Song Yuehua thought of her eldest disciple again. Xie Wenwu really had a talent for cooking, but it was unknown how Zhou Xiaohu was doing.

Xiaoyu suddenly asked, "Has Brother Xiaohu ever cooked by himself?"

Zhou Xiaohu shook his head. How could he be allowed to cook when he was not even allowed to touch the stove at home?

Song Yuehua said, "You can give it a try. Talk to your family and they will agree."

Zhou Xiaohu nodded.

After the two left, Xiaoyu poked her head out from behind the door and said, "Sister Song really seems like a steady adult, and what she said is indeed reasonable. These two guys are not stupid, they knew to come to you."

Xiaoyu asked curiously, "Xiaoyu, what have you been hiding for?"

"I'm not hiding, I'm avoiding," Xiaoyu said while teasing Dabao, "If I were here, they wouldn't be so comfortable."

Song Yuehua thought that was right. Although Xiaoyu was not very old, she was their teacher. It was inevitable that they would feel nervous in front of a teacher.

Suddenly Xie Yu yelled, "Ah! Dabao! He peed on me!"

Song Yuehua took Dabao, and Xie Yu ran away quickly. Xiaoyu immediately stood up and said, "Sister, I'll go help Xiaobao pee."

Seeing everyone’s panic, Dabao laughed happily.

Only Song Yuehua and Dabao were left in the yard staring at each other, "You little bastard!"

During this period, Dongshan was very busy. Liu Xue and Grandma Lan went to the Hu family every day to learn how to feed pigs.

Zhou Dafu not only had to supervise the reclamation of wasteland, but also had to go around with Zong Yi to purchase wood ash, egg shells, and farm manure.

Tian's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and Fu were busy tidying up the vegetable fields, while Ren Dahai was assigned to dig a fermentation tank.

Master Duan and his two disciples were also assigned to dig up piles of rotten leaves in the mountains.

Song Yuehua takes care of the children at home. The younger one is relatively well behaved. She can play with a piece of cloth for a whole day. But the older one is too lively and never behaves well all day long.

If Madam Xia and Granny Wang hadn’t come to help, Dabao alone would have been in big trouble.

Xiaoyu sewed a rope for Dabao and Xiaobao that could hold their hands and feet, and left a rope at the back so that the whole person could be lifted up with just one pull.

Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu’s favorite thing to do is to take Dabao for a walk with a rope, and as soon as he comes back, they put him on the bed and fall asleep.

Song Yuehua watched silently without saying a word.

She had seen this kind of thing before. In modern times, many people use it to walk their dogs and cats, and nowadays they use it to walk their babies.

Anyway, the effect is pretty good.

A few days later, Liu Xue said she wanted to go with Hu Jinshui to select piglets.

Song Yuehua thought that it was time to buy it, and replied, "Let's go together tomorrow."

The next day, the three of them got on Ma Ye's ox cart.

"Daya, didn't your family just buy two cows? Why are you still riding in someone else's ox cart?" a woman asked with a silly smile.

The women who were traveling with them looked at each other and felt awkward.

They didn't want to offend Song Daya, so they turned their heads away and said nothing.

Zhao Ergou, who was sitting on the frame, said, "They have a good relationship, so how can a stupid woman like you mess it up? Daya, don't you think so?"

Song Yuehua, "..."

The woman seemed to have realized what was happening, and hurriedly explained, "Daya, that's not what I meant, it's just..."

Song Yuehua chuckled and said, "Just because you have an ox doesn't mean you can use it as an ox cart. You think it's just a matter of waving a whip. If you use someone else, not only will the person suffer, but the ox will suffer as well. If you don't believe me, ask Grandpa Ma if he's willing. I'll drive the second half of the journey."

Master Ma listened all the way and said with a smile, "Come on, you big girl, don't bring harm to my cows."

The people on the ox cart also laughed when they heard this.

When Song Yuehua looked up, she saw Zhao Ergou smiling at her brightly.

I always feel a little uneasy.

Zhao Ergou laughed and said, "Daya, your school is really good. The future of our village depends on you!"

After saying this, Song Yuehua didn't want to bother with this person.

She still remembered how Zhao Ergou cheated her out of two taels of silver for half a bowl of wine.

Seeing that no one responded, Zhao Ergou didn't mind and laughed, "Look at which village nearby is better than ours, and can have a girl as lucky as Daya. What do you think?"

The villagers on the bicycles all had children at home. Even those who were not sent to school had some thoughts in this regard and could only respond awkwardly.

Song Yuehua felt uncomfortable with the flattery. Then, when she turned around, she saw Liu Xue covering her face with her hands while laughing.

Song Yuehua, "..."
