Chapter 148 Studying is not the exclusive right of city people
Sun was busy in the fields alone, and she needed help with some things in the jam workshop, so Sun was particularly looking forward to Su Xiaoxiao's return. Home.
There were also some people in Baihua Village who were very jealous of Sun. At first they laughed at Sun and Wang Er for coming from other places and looked down on them.
As a result, they now make a lot of money by hanging out with Su Xiaoxiao, which inevitably makes people jealous.
Some talkative women were talking outside, saying that the seedlings in the Sun family's own field were dying, and they were still running around outside all day long. A farmer who doesn't cultivate the land knows how to run around, and sooner or later she will regret it.
Su Xiaoxiao was happy when she heard it, and it turned out that Mrs. Sun was crying because of this incident.
"Sister Sun, we are not angry. I have already said that when they have something to gain in a few days, they will naturally keep their mouths shut. Just let them gossip here now. When we make money in the future, they will be soft. I’m just envious.”
After hearing this, Mrs. Sun laughed.
I haven't seen Su Xiaoxiao for a few days, and I feel that Su Xiaoxiao has entered the capital for the first time. After I came back, everything I said made sense.
"Well, sister, I believe what you say anyway."
"By the way, I have one more thing to ask of you. I wonder if you can promise us?"
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "What's the matter?"
"Wang Er and I are going to open a jam shop in the town. In the future we are going to buy a house in the town and take our two children to study in the town."
Su Xiaoxiao was really happy for her when she heard that Sun had such an idea.
"I don't know if we can provide supplies by then. After all, our jam workshop now has to provide supplies to the Eight Immortals House and the grocery stores in the town. I'm afraid it won't be able to provide them to our family..."
Su Xiaoxiao laughed when she heard this and said: "What are you talking about, Sister Sun? Our workshop not only needs to provide supply to these customers in the town, but also to provide supply to Fanbang in the future, and the jam will also be exported!"
Su Xiaoxiao said that their jam business must be expanded by then, and Mrs. Sun was very happy for Su Xiaoxiao. Unexpectedly, after Su Xiaoxiao entered the capital, her business mind became more flexible and her vision became more long-term.
Sure enough, the Sun family's shop opened in the town. Although the shop was relatively small and conveniently facing the street, it was not opened in the market where the rich lived. Su Xiaoxiao knew that the Sun family was taking the common people's route.
Su Xiaoxiao was quite happy for them. Sun was still helping in the jam workshop, but now they had their own shop to work on. In the future, they could earn more money and have more opportunities.
Su Xiaoxiao also met Chen Zian, who was very high-spirited and was about to go to the capital to become an official.
The private school will close in a while, and Su Xiaoxiao's two treasures, Dabao and Xiaobao, will soon have no books to read.
This matter was quite a pity. Su Xiaoxiao had to quickly find a way to find a suitable teacher. This private school still had to be opened.
In the future, if appropriate, she would also like to open a school in Baihua Village, so that more children can have access to books.
Liu Zian told Su Xiaoxiao that Baihua Village once produced a Jinshi. This person's name was Huai'an. It is said that because of his naturally straight personality, he offended others in the court and had to resign and go home to farm as soon as he was admitted to the Jinshi.
He himself doesn't like the flattery in the officialdom, and prefers to study knowledge.
Su Xiaoxiao thought that she could use this opportunity to persuade Mr. Huai to teach Dabao, Xiaobao, and other children in the village.
After inquiring about Mr. Huai'an's address, Su Xiaoxiao brought gifts, and she and Liu Zian went to visit Mr. Huai'an.
This Mr. Huaian lives in the most remote corner of the village. The house has a stone foundation and looks very solid. There are no other neighbors around, and the small courtyard surrounded by fences with vegetables grown inside looks very neat and tidy.
It shows that Mr. Huai'an is very diligent, as if he is an expert living in seclusion in a paradise. In front of this house is a large small garden with many flowers, plants and trees planted in it. It can be seen that Mr. Huaian is a person who loves life very much.
There are also chicken pens and a pig pen in the corner of the yard between the main house and the side house. There is a well for collecting water here. Even a scholar can live a secluded life here.
Su Xiaoxiao saw an old lady with gray hair watering flowers in the yard in front of the house.
"Excuse me, does Mr. Huaian live here?"
Su Xiaoxiao greeted the old lady who was busy in the vegetable garden very politely.
"Well, yes."
"Can I see him?"
The old lady looked up and down at Su Xiaoxiao in front of her. Su Xiaoxiao was wearing very ordinary clothes, but she looked very good-looking. The old lady did not underestimate Su Xiaoxiao.
"My old man is not at home. You can come over some other time."
He rejected Su Xiaoxiao directly. When Su Xiaoxiao heard it, she agreed. It was actually very abrupt that she came to visit rashly. If she was not at home, it was not the right time for her to come, so she might as well wait for another day.
"I heard about Mr. Huai'an's name and came here to visit him. This is the gift I brought him. Please accept it."
After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she was about to leave.
"Take your things, Mr. Huai'an doesn't want to see you."
After the old lady finished speaking, she pushed Su Xiaoxiao out with these gifts very coldly.
There was a strong cough in the room, followed by a voice: "A good farmer should just stay and be a farmer. You have to learn like the city people."
Saying this, Su Xiaoxiao heard that Mr. Huai'an should be at home.
This means hearing his voice before seeing him.
Su Xiaoxiao felt that she still wanted to communicate with Mr. Huai'an, so she said very politely to the people in the room: "Hello, Mr. Huai'an, I am Su Xiaoxiao. What you just mentioned about studying seems to be only the right of city people." , does this mean that country people are not worthy of studying?”
No one in the room said anything, and Su Xiaoxiao continued: "I think everyone is fair regardless of whether they were born in the city or in the country. Is studying just a patent for city people?"
These words were indeed unlike what a rural woman could say, and the people in the room stopped talking after hearing this.
Not long after, the door opened, and a vigorous old man who looked gentle and gentle came out.
Su Xiaoxiao quickly stepped forward and bowed deeply.
"Hello, I am Su Xiaoxiao. Are you Mr. Huai'an?"
The old man in front of him twirled his goatee and smiled at Su Xiaoxiao: "That's right. I wonder why you came here?"
