Chapter 112 Chapter 112 Results Pig Ears...
As a result, the pig ears were crispy and soft. Dipping them in some chili powder, I don’t know whether they can be eaten with rice, but they are definitely suitable for drinking. It’s just that he was already a little full, otherwise he would really like to eat them with wine. The taste must be very satisfying.
After finishing all the food that Chen brought, Sun Lao San burped.
At this time, Chen also brought the silver, weighed it in front of Sun Lao San, and handed it to him, "Brother-in-law, take a look and see if it's correct."
A total of 5 taels and 3 qian, no problem. Sun Laosan's face was almost broken with laughter. "We are family, why should I be afraid that you will cheat me?"
Chen saw through it but didn't say anything, she just smiled.
Then he changed the subject, "I just asked Daya to pack two bags of braised dishes. You can take them back for Fourth Sister and Auntie."
Braised food? Sun Lao San was stunned for a moment before realizing it was the same dish he had just eaten. He immediately said happily, "That's so embarrassing..."
"I thank you on behalf of your fourth sister and the others."
The two chatted for a while longer, mostly with Sun Lao San talking about his son and daughter and recent family events. When he ran out of things to say, he remembered he had to go back to the rice shop. He slapped his thigh and shouted, "Oh, I'm not going to talk to you, little sister. I have some things to do at the shop."
After saying that, he even forgot to take the braised meat and hurried out. After he went out, he ran back soon and took the two bags of braised meat away with a smile.
It is said that after Sun Laosan returned to the Sun family, he presented the braised dish to his father, Sun Laohan, like offering a treasure. Sun Laohan's reaction at first was the same as Sun Laosan's. He thought it was something bad and picked up a broom to hit Sun Laosan. Fortunately, Sun Laosan reacted quickly and dodged it. Later, after Sun Laosan repeatedly swore that it was delicious, Sun Laohan reluctantly tasted it.
So when the others came back, they saw the father and son sitting in the yard, drinking and eating a plate of something they didn't know what it was.
.
On the Su family's side, not long after Sun Lao San left, they welcomed guests for dinner, and everyone in the Su family also threw themselves into new busy work. In the following days, as Qiu and Jiang became more and more familiar with the work in the food store, the store also began to implement Su Li's shift system.
In addition, Su Li also made two account books, intending to record all future income and expenditure. The advantage of this is that she can know the daily income and expenditure and better manage the food store. The other book records the monthly wages, etc.
However, when Su Li actually started, she discovered it wasn't that simple, because no one in her family could write!!! She could write simplified Chinese characters, but there was a risk of being exposed. Also, for long-term considerations, it was best for everyone else in the family to be able to write and recognize basic words. If nothing else, it was necessary for bookkeeping, and once they learned to write, they would be less likely to be scammed.
As soon as she thought of it, she did it. After lunch that day, Su Li came out of the food shop and went to the rouge shop next door.
Speaking of which, Su Li didn't expect that the first friend she made after coming to this world was Madam Ruan. She admired Madam Ruan very much after hearing about her story. Later, because Lian Gu often came here to play, Su Li also became familiar with Madam Ruan. She found that Madam Ruan was really interesting and treated people sincerely, so over time they became friends. This time, Su Li also thought that Madam Ruan had been in the county for a long time, and wanted to ask her if there were any female teachers or the like.
"Sister Ruan, are you there?" Su Li walked into the rouge shop and found that there was no one in the shop. The fan she usually held in her hand fell to the ground. She walked towards the backyard with worry.
But just as she reached the curtain, Ruan came out in a panic.
"Sister Ali, why are you here?"
The moment she came out, Su Li clearly saw a tall and strong figure flash past in the backyard.
However, soon, Ruan closed the curtain.
However, Su Li had received modern education and quickly accepted the matter. She even took the initiative to pretend that she didn't notice that the other person had buttoned his clothes incorrectly, and directly changed the subject to explain her purpose.
"Female teacher?" Ruan was indeed attracted by this matter.
"You want to learn to write?"
Ruan was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the other party wanted to learn how to write.
Su Li nodded and corrected the other person, saying that it was not just her, but everyone.
"I'm really sorry, I've never heard of this." Ruan looked apologetic, as if she felt embarrassed that she couldn't help Su Li.
Although she came into contact with many wealthy families on a daily basis, she was still not clear about these things.
Su Li was a little disappointed when she heard this, but it was actually within her expectations. After all, it was not easy to find a female teacher in this era, so she quickly said it was okay.
Seeing that Su Li really wanted to find a teacher, Ruan suddenly thought of someone, "If you want to find a teacher, why go far away? Isn't there one nearby?"
"?" Su Li looked puzzled.
Who? How come she doesn't know?
"Master Xing! Master Xing is a very kind person. If it were him, he would surely agree!"
Master Xing? The old master who never remarried after his wife died?
Su Li had an impression of him. He cried when he first came to the food shop. Later, she learned that he often cried whenever he thought of his wife. People in the surrounding shops knew that he was a very good person and did not have the arrogance of a scholar. Every year during the Chinese New Year, he would help the neighbors write couplets. Everyone liked him very much.
However, Su Li was still a little worried. Writing couplets was one thing, learning calligraphy was another. Nowadays, women were considered virtuous even without talent, and scholars studied the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues. They looked down on women from the bottom of their hearts, believing that women were appendages of men and that their proper role was to stay at home and take care of their husbands and children. Moreover, she was a merchant's daughter, one of the lowest social status in the world. How could she learn calligraphy? It was good that they didn't kick her out. Maybe they would even give her a lesson in ideological education.
After hearing Su Li's concerns, Ruan was also a little unsure. After all, what Su Li said was true. This was also the sadness of women in this era. No matter what they did, there were all kinds of restrictions and obstacles.
The main reason was that she had never heard of any private school teacher accepting female students.
"It's okay, let's go and try it first. Maybe Master Xing will agree."
Ruan encouraged.
Su Li thought about it and thought, well, how can you know the result if you haven't tried it yet? This is not her character.
He immediately went back and brought two bags of pastries and some of the food that Master Xing liked to eat when he came to the store and brought it to his door.
It happened that Master Xing was at home that day, but he was also confused after hearing Su Li's purpose.
His first thought was to refuse. What a joke, really a joke. If other people in the private school knew that he had accepted a female disciple, he would be laughed to death.
What's more, what's the point of reading books for a girl?
Seeing that the other party looked unhappy, Su Li thought, as expected, but since she was already here, she didn't want to give up so easily, so she told him why she wanted to study and learn to write, and talked about the difficulties she encountered due to her illiteracy and her true feelings.
"Mr. Xing, I just want to learn a few words. I hope I can read and not be cheated."
Perhaps Su Li's words were too sincere and too earnest, so Master Xing did not speak for a while.
He couldn't help but think of his deceased parents, two honest and simple farmers who were illiterate. One year, they rented land from a wealthy family. When they paid the rent, they found that the rent was 20% more than agreed. They naturally refused to pay and took out the signed contract and said they would go to the government to sue him. However, the wealthy family let them sue without any fear, and said that everything was clearly written in the contract and he was not afraid of them suing.
It was also because after that incident that his parents were determined to save money for his education, as they didn't want him to be a blind man with open eyes in the future.
Master Xing originally thought that he had forgotten it, but now after hearing what the girl in front of him said, he suddenly remembered it.
"Please let me think about it carefully." Master Xing said after a while.
This meant that it was possible, so Su Li did not continue to pester him and quickly said, "Okay, old sir, you can take your time to think about it. You can also leave these foods for yourself to eat slowly."
After saying this, he left without giving Master Xing time to react.
This girl... Master Xing smiled and shook his head.
Then he took a look at the basket Su Li brought and found that it was full of his favorite dishes.
Gurgle…
Old Master Xing had just returned from the private school after yelling at his students and was hungry. This gift was very touching. In addition, he really loved the food at Su Ji Food Store, especially the braised pork made by the little girl. He wanted to eat more after having had it.
There was a plate of braised pork in the basket, and there seemed to be a plate of fried crabs. These were foods that the food store didn't have, and they were still steaming. Master Xing swallowed his saliva, but finally couldn't help but took it out and ate it.
All right, I'll teach you. It's just a few words. It doesn't go against the teachings of Confucius and Mencius that I've learned for many years, Master Xing said to himself.
After Su Li returned to the food store, she waited from the afternoon until the next day before finally waiting for Master Xing to show up.
"Old man, you are here..." Su Li walked forward and greeted him with a smile.
"Don't be so anxious. Listen to me. If you agree with what I said, we can start the class. If you don't agree, forget it." Master Xing interrupted Su Li and said what he had been thinking about all night.
"First, I never accepted female disciples before, and I won't accept any in the future. I'm just teaching you a few words. Do you understand?"
Su Li: “I understand!”
Isn't it just that he doesn't want to bear this reputation? She understands!
"Second, we'll be done after we finish teaching the Thousand Character Classic." He was afraid that Su Li didn't know what the Thousand Character Classic was, so he patiently explained it again, saying, "Once you've almost mastered the Thousand Character Classic, you'll know the basic characters."
"OK."
"Third, I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I think of it."
"good."
Su Li agreed to everything readily. As long as the other party was willing to teach her, she would be very happy.
"Old man, you've finished speaking. I have something else to ask..."
Then Su Li told the story...
"no!"
After listening to this, Master Xing wanted to leave immediately. However, Su Li would never let him go, and it took a long time of persuasion before she reluctantly persuaded him to stay.
"Don't worry, Shu Xiu will definitely not let you go." Su Li assured again and again, fearing that the other party would want to leave again.
…
It was the first time that Master Xing encountered such a cunning girl, but he finally agreed. What else could he do? He had already eaten the food, so what else could he do?
However, when Master Xing was holding the Three Character Classic that day and looked at the crowd of people in the backyard of Su Ji Food Store, and except for an old man, all of them were women and young ladies, he felt a little regretful.
What kind of errand is this...
Of course, this emotion disappeared when Su Li prepared a sumptuous dinner for him.
I saw him pick up a piece of braised fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. The taste was so delicious that it was beyond words.
