After Lu Qingyan and Qian Xiaomei thanked them and sent them out, they sat in the living room to think about things.

"What are you thinking about?" When Mother Lu woke up, she saw her daughter sitting in the living room in a trance, so she walked over and asked.

"It's nothing. Just now when I was basking in the sun at the door, Qian Xiaomei asked me to teach her child how to read when I was free." Lu Qingyan was interrupted by her mother before she could say the next sentence.

"You agree?" When Mother Lu heard her daughter say that, she knew she agreed, otherwise she wouldn't have told her.

"Well, I just thought that I would teach them when I was staying at home every day." Seeing her mother asking this, Lu Qingyan hurriedly explained: "I have already told them in advance that I will teach them for a while when I go out to bask in the sun every day, and I will not teach them at other times."

"They? Not just Qian Xiaomei's family, could there be others?" When Lu's mother heard her daughter talking about them, she interrupted her daughter and asked

"Mom, there are so many children in our family building. I promised Qian Xiaomei's family, so will other families not send their children here?" Lu Qingyan was a little helpless about her mother's fuss. She rubbed her forehead and said, "I just promised Qian Xiaomei, and then Lin Chunhua came out to ask. I have already promised one family, and other families come to ask me, how can I not agree?"

"Your belly is getting bigger and bigger, and you won't be able to teach them then. Then people will start to criticize you again." Mother Lu knew too well how gossipy those people were. It was good that her daughter agreed to them. If she suddenly stopped teaching them in the future, those people might say something bad again.

"It's okay. When I teach them, I will tell them clearly in advance that those who are willing to send their children to me can send them here, and those who don't want to send their children to me, I won't tell them." Lu Qingyan had already thought of this. If she agreed to teach them and suddenly stopped teaching, those people would definitely say bad things about her behind her back.

I would never do something that is thankless.

Section 59

"Okay, just make your own plans. Don't let others gossip about you after you teach your children. It would be better not to teach them at all." Seeing that her daughter had made her plans, Mother Lu said nothing else.

She just didn't want her daughter to do good things and then be gossiped about.

"Don't worry, my most important thing now is to take good care of the children and myself. I will do everything else within my ability." Lu Qingyan put her arm around her mother's arm and said with a smile.

"Then you better be careful next time. Those kids are too young. If they don't take it seriously, they might mess with you again." Seeing her daughter acting like a spoiled brat, Mother Lu reached out and touched her hair and said,

"Qian Xiaomei said that she would watch me while I teach the children." Lu Qingyan had thought about it. If there were no adults watching, she would not teach so many children. She was afraid of the unexpected. If any child was naughty and bumped into her, she would change her mind.

"Okay, just make a plan." When Lu's mother heard her daughter say this, she nodded, as if she had thought of something, and suddenly asked, "Then how about paper and pens for them to learn to read? You won't ask you to buy them, will you?"

"No, I told them that they should learn to write on the ground now, and buy a pen after they have learned it and become proficient in writing." Lu Qingyan shook her head and said

"This is also a solution. Otherwise, if you ask them to buy paper and pens right after teaching them to read, their parents may not agree." When Lu's mother heard that her daughter had planned everything, she felt relieved. She planned to watch her daughter while she taught the children, but she must not let them touch her daughter.

"Well, don't worry." Lu Qingyan nodded, then let go of her mother's arm and said, "It's a little cool outside now, and the sun is not so hot. You can go out and sit for a while."

"Well, then you go back to your room and take a nap. I'll wait at the door for a while." After saying that, Mother Lu picked up the small stool she had ordered a few days ago and went out to the door.

"Auntie, are you here?" Qian Xiaomei was sitting at the door chatting with her mother-in-law when she saw Lu's mother coming out with a stool. She quickly smiled and greeted her.

"Well, you just woke up, so come out and sit for a while." Mother Lu nodded with a smile, put the bench aside, and sat there to chat with them.

"Auntie, today I asked your eldest sister to teach my son how to read. This will really cause trouble for your family in the future." After Lu's mother sat down, Qian Xiaomei said what she had just said to Lu Qingyan.

"Xiaoyan just told me that she was just sitting there every day, so teaching the children to read is a way for her to kill some time." After Lu's mother finished speaking, Qian Xiaomei didn't know what to say, so she continued, "I'm just afraid. Look, her belly is getting bigger every day. I'm afraid that when there are too many children, if one of them is disobedient, what will I do if she runs into one?"

"Don't worry about this, Auntie. When your eldest sister teaches the children to read, I will be watching by the side and will never let those kids touch a hair of your eldest sister." When Qian Xiaomei heard what Lu's mother said, she immediately made a promise.

After all, she was the one who brought up this matter first. If I wasn't watching nearby, and Captain Gu's wife was carrying a child and got hit, and something happened, wouldn't I be very regretful?

"Your words make me feel relieved, but when the day comes, I still have to say what I should say." After hearing Qian Xiaomei's assurance, Mother Lu said with a smile, "Although Xiaoyan agreed to teach the child to read, she will definitely not be able to teach after her belly gets bigger. You can't refuse by then."

"Auntie, look at what you are saying. We haven't had enough time to get your eldest sister into our house yet, how can you still be unwilling?" Qian Xiaomei was afraid that Lu's mother would stop Lu Qingyan from teaching the child to read, so she said solemnly:

"I am grateful to your elder sister for agreeing to teach the child to read. If anyone dares to say something bad about your elder sister because she is pregnant and can't teach the child, then I, Qian Xiaomei, will be the first to disagree."

"You're a good child. How can I not trust you?" Mother Lu said, looking away, "I'm afraid some people won't be grateful. When my daughter can't teach children anymore, they'll gossip about her. After all, there are many such people."

"Auntie, don't worry. If my elder sister can teach these kids with her belly, it must be this." Qian Xiaomei gave a thumbs up and said, "She will teach them for a while. When my elder sister's belly gets bigger, she can teach them even if she wants to. I won't agree."

"Then the lady is here in advance, thank you..."
