Chapter 388 Apprentice



Many times, she would make mistakes even on familiar knowledge points.

But this kind of mistake would never happen to Lu Changqing.

She originally thought that she had learned a lot of knowledge, started reviewing earlier than him, and reviewed for longer than him, so she could definitely be his teacher.

Unfortunately, Lu Changqing's talent completely defeated her.

In front of such an absolute genius, Gu Qingning felt a deep sense of frustration.

Lu Changqing looked at her devastated expression and couldn't help but smile as he patted her head. "I don't have any other abilities. Apart from being a little stronger, I'm only slightly better at solving problems. Compared to you, I'm still too poor."

Gu Qingning was so angry that he was fuming and glaring, wishing he could pin him down and beat him up.

Isn't Lu Changqing just taking advantage of the situation?

Forget it, I have to be the only one who pampers my man!

However, Gu Qingning thought that when she went to college, she would inevitably be exposed to English literature, so she began to teach Lu Changqing English.

"Our baby can make mistakes, but you can't. Come learn English with me!"

There are very few English teaching materials available in this era. In order to quickly restore her English ability, Gu Qingning even went to the space to exchange some English teaching materials from the modern dimension.

It also cost her a lot of money, which made her feel distressed.

However, Lu Changqing's talent in mathematics, physics and chemistry seemed to disappear completely when it came to English.

He learns slower than children and has more difficulty learning than children. Spelling, reading and writing are all very difficult for him.

"Finally, I found a subject you're not good at. I thought you were good at everything!" Gu Qingning said proudly, "It seems you're seriously biased. Although science is good, English, Chinese, and politics are not so good. Let me help you improve it!"

Finally, he made a comeback in his studies and Gu Qingning also regained some sense of accomplishment.

However, English is not tested in the college entrance examination.

Thinking of this, she felt a little depressed again.

After reviewing for a while, Gu Qingning felt that her brain was becoming more and more flexible, as if she had returned to her student days.

In addition, she also gained a lot.

As a female tractor driver in the village, Gu Qingning also chose to take two female apprentices.

This not only effectively reduces their workload, but also provides a new way out for the girls in the village who cannot continue their studies.

When they heard that they could learn how to drive a hand tractor, all the girls in the village were eager to try it out.

However, some small rumors began to form in the village.

"As a girl, why would you spend all day learning to drive a tractor? You'd better find a good family and marry as soon as possible!"

"Yeah, if a woman learns too much, her heart will become wild. If she doesn't want to get married, what should I do?"

"Driving a tractor is still mostly done by men. Why don't you hire a few more male apprentices?"

There are actually quite a lot of people who want to learn how to drive a tractor, but when they hear that Gu Qingning only recruits women, some men become unhappy and even jump up and down.

He specializes in spreading all kinds of rumors in the village.

When Gu Qingning heard these words, she was furious.

The village party secretary also heard these words and was so angry that he called everyone together.

"I've heard some discordant voices in the village recently. Let me give you a lesson. Our village has always advocated for gender equality. Why can't women learn to drive a tractor? Everyone should know that the people who make clothes in the village collective are all women. The income generated by women's labor is no less than that of you men!"

If someone else had said this, everyone would have been outraged.

But after all, these were the words of the village party secretary, so no one dared to say anything.

Gu Qingning looked around and finally admitted two girls based on their merits.

The two girls are named Wang Qing and Tian Tian.

Both girls are very sweet-looking. They have been doing farm work since childhood and are quite strong. They definitely do not fit in with the later aesthetics of fair, young and thin. However, their faces are rosy, their eyes are bright, and they are full of hope for life. They look much more lively than some reed-like women in later generations.

Gu Qingning was very satisfied with both of them.

On the first day of becoming an apprentice, they brought a few eggs, a bag of millet and twenty yuan from home as tuition for their master.

In this era, there was still not enough food, but Gu Qingning was their master after all, so they still performed the master-disciple ceremony of kneeling very seriously, which was considered as a formal apprenticeship.

Gu Qingning helped both of them up.

"I'm only two years older than you. Since you call me Master, I'll accept you two as my disciples. As the saying goes, a master leads the way, but the practice is up to the individual. How well you can learn from me in the future depends entirely on yourselves. I won't let you down at all. Do you understand?"

Both girls nodded obediently, indicating that they would be obedient and cherish this hard-won opportunity.

Gu Qingning also asked the two girls to continue exercising.

It takes a lot of strength to drive a hand tractor, which is why there are so few female tractor drivers. The two girls have been doing farm work since they were young, so they are quite strong. However, they don’t have enough to eat at home, so they are a bit short and thin.

Gu Qingning was not short of money, so she simply shared some food with them and let them both eat at home.

I would use my free time to teach them how to drive a tractor.

The two girls seemed to be competing with each other, each learning faster than the other, and soon made great progress.

At the same time, the two of them did not forget to repay their master's kindness. Whenever they had free time, they began to rush to help their master with work. The farm work that originally belonged to Gu Qingning was directly taken over by the two girls.

Even Lu Changqing couldn't snatch it away.

"Your two apprentices are too proactive. I was thinking of helping you with your work this afternoon, but they had already finished it this morning, leaving me no chance at all!"

Gu Qingning also laughed: "At least they have some conscience!"

The two little girls ate at her house, and in just two months, they both gained some weight and grew visibly taller, becoming taller than before.

When other people saw this, they just thought that the two girls were more beautiful than before.

"I heard that they eat meat every meal at Gu Qingning's house. Look at these two apprentices, they've gained weight so quickly and are even whiter than before!"

Everyone was whispering, discussing the situation at Gu Qingning's home.

At this moment, a woman was squatting on the side of the road eating a steamed bun.

When she heard Gu Qingning's name, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with hatred.
