Seeing his younger brother's face flushed with smiles and his mouth chattering excitedly to him, Lin Yunchu also gave him face, listened quietly, and nodded in agreement from time to time.
Seeing that his elder sister was interested, Lin Changan talked even more excitedly, chattering all the way and didn't stop talking until he returned to the Lin family.
Lin's father and mother were also happy to hear this, so they sat down beside him and listened to Lin Chang'an chattering about what happened in school during the day with smiles on their faces.
"The teacher praised me today, saying that I had never been to school but I could recite the Three Character Classic and even write my own name."
Lin Chang'an looked at all the Lin family members gathered around him, and then he told them about how the teacher praised him today, as if he didn't like being praised himself.
As he spoke, his face turned a little red, but he wanted to tell his family about what happened in the school. After all, it cost him a lot of money to go to school.
I think my family must be happy to receive praise from the teacher.
Sure enough, when Lin Chang'an's father and mother heard him say that he had received praise from the teacher, the smiles on their faces never stopped. They were even happier than when the family first made money.
Lin Chang'an stopped talking until his mouth was dry. Lin Yunchu quickly poured him a glass of water and handed it to him.
Lin Changan took the tea handed to him by Lin Yunchu, grinned happily at Lin Yunchu, and didn't say anything else. Instead, he obediently took the water and drank it.
I studied for a long time in school today, and was busy getting familiar with the environment and my classmates, and talked a lot.
We have been talking about this since school and my throat is so dry that it’s about to burn.
The corners of Lin Yunchu's mouth slowly rose, thinking that this was all thanks to the special treatment Lu Yanzhou gave to Lin Changan when he was still in the village a few days ago.
I taught him some Three Character Classic and taught him to write his own name. Otherwise, no matter how high his comprehension was, he would not have been able to learn so much on the first day. He also received praise from the teacher.
I think the master is quite satisfied with Lin Chang'an's performance today. I have heard that Master Li is not a person who flatters others. He has always been upright and says what he thinks.
but.......
"Chang'an, although you received the teacher's praise today, these are all the results of your following Brother Yanzhou a few days ago. Don't be too proud."
"Tomorrow when you go to school, you must be humble and study hard with the teacher and your classmates. Got it?"
Lin Yunchu's words were sincere and heartfelt. Studying is not something that can be done overnight. It requires a long period of continuous learning. You can't praise Lin Changan too much, otherwise it will be bad.
When Lin Changan heard Lin Yunchu's words, he thought of what his brother Yanzhou said that day, and immediately grinned and nodded at Lin Yunchu.
Since both of them said so, they must be right, and I would be right to listen to them.
Hearing Lin Yunchu and his sister talking about studying at school, Lin's mother nodded with satisfaction, then got up and went to work in the vegetable garden in the backyard.
A few days later, after a heavy rain, the mushrooms in the mountains began to emerge again.
Just like last year, the Lin family discussed with Lin Qingshan's family and started to go into the mountains, but this year they brought Pan's father with them.
Although Mr. Pan's legs and feet were not very agile, he had been working in the fields all year round, so going into the mountains was not a problem for him. Moreover, the two families were looking after each other.
Every time Lin Changting went into the mountains, he would follow Pan's father, picking mushrooms while watching over him, fearing that he would slip due to his leg problems.
This caused Pan's father to say, "Changting, don't worry about me. I'm fine. I know many mushrooms. Just focus on your own work."
Lin Changting was always distracted. He had been in the mountains for a long time, but he only picked up half of the basket. How much silver was lost?
Father Pan felt a little sad. His leg had not hurt for a long time, and now he just had difficulty walking. However, he worked in the fields all year round.
This is not a big deal, and everyone took care of him when going up and down the mountain, letting him walk in the middle, so what could happen?
"Yes, big brother, there are more mushrooms over there, you can go there, I can help you keep an eye on Uncle Pan here, don't worry."
Seeing that Pan's father looked embarrassed, Lin Yunchu also spoke up and pointed to a small valley not far away. There were a lot of mushrooms there last year, so he planned to let Lin Changting go over and pick them first.
The mushrooms he picked up in his backpack were too few, and everyone was in a hurry to go down the mountain soon.
The most important thing is that Pan's father is older than all of them. Although his legs and feet are not very nimble, he must be feeling uncomfortable being taken care of by the younger generation like this, and it has delayed the important task of picking mushrooms in the mountains.
It’s better to relax a little so that he can feel better.
Hearing his younger sister's words, Lin Changting suddenly realized something. He had followed Lin Yunchu to the town for so long, so naturally he had learned some skills in reading people's expressions.
Then he realized that his father Pan felt burdened by his cautious attitude. It would be better for him to just watch from afar. Besides, there were many people going into the mountains and they could all take care of each other.
Lin Changting nodded immediately and said a few words to Pan's father before going down to the valley that Lin Yunchu had pointed to.
After noon, the group returned home with a full load.
After dinner in the evening, Lin Yunchu told everyone in the Lin family that she wanted to go to the Xie family.
I told my grandparents last year that I would take them into the mountains to pick mushrooms this year.
Originally, the Lin family planned to let Lin Changting go to the Xie family. Lin Changting was strong and could drive a car, so he was suitable to go to the Xie family.
Lin Yunchu thought about it carefully for a while, and after going down the mountain today, he still felt that he should stay at the Xie family for a while, take them into the mountains and teach them to identify edible mushrooms.
They still don't know what the situation is like in the mountains on the Xie family's side. If there are other mushrooms that are different from the ones in the mountains of Qingxi Village, Lin Changting won't be able to recognize them, so wouldn't that be a waste of effort?
It would be better for her to go to the Xie family, and it would be convenient for her to live in the same room with her cousin Chunjiao.
Besides, Lin Changting is married now, and she will have to stay at the Xie family for a long time. After thinking about it again and again, she finally decided to let her go.
Every day, Lin Changting drove his ox cart past Xiejia Village, took their mushrooms and went to the town together, and delivered the silver from the previous day the next day.
This is perfect. It's just that Lin Changting has to work harder and run a longer distance, but it's worth it for the Xie family.
After hearing Lin Yunchu's words, everyone in the Lin family looked at each other, but they also knew that this was the most suitable way, which was to make Lin Changting work harder.
Fortunately, Xiejia Village is not far away, and it only takes half an hour to drive the ox cart there.
"So when are we going to your grandparents' house?"
Lin's mother was a little reluctant to let Lin Yunchu go, as he had never been away from home for such a long time.
