After entering the village, Tian's head frowned and said, "Village chief, do you think the seven widows are joking with those old people? Will they bring trouble to our village?"

Village head Tian sighed: "Under the big tree at the entrance of the village, people come and go. They talk openly and honestly. Even if the yamen is in charge of the world, they don't care about talking and farting in the middle!"

Yang Dacui frowned, a little worried, "I'm afraid they know that our village is rich and have a shallow foundation, so they came to steal our money and crops."

Tian's big head also nodded, echoing Yang Dacui's words: "Sister-in-law is right. We must be careful, village chief, the place where money is stored at home must be strict."

Village Chief Tian thought for a while and thought it made sense, "Okay, I'll greet the villagers in the evening to remind everyone to be more vigilant."

Before Shen Yunxi could hear the gnashing of teeth of the seventh widow outside, he hurried home with Tian Daniu.

There is hot water in a large vat in the yard.Shen Yunxi took a bath in the bamboo shed and washed her hair.As for Tian Daniu, he picked up his clothes, ran directly into the stream and jumped down.This is the favorite way of bathing for boys in the village.very convenient.

Shen Yunxi's hair fell loose.Although she had wiped it off, there were still drops of water on the ends of her hair.

The eldest daughter Tian Xiuli took a towel and gently wiped her mother.Shen Yunxi found the two accounting boards, took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone he bought today, and started copying the accounts.

Tian Daniu saw his mother writing, so he hurried over and sat down at the small table.He watched it patiently with envious eyes.

When can he write letters? When can he write such beautiful words?
Shen Yunxi quickly copied an account book with a pen and paper, cut and bound the cost, and it became an account book.

A knife of paper is worth one tael of silver, and it is the cheapest paper in the bookstore.Brush pens are cheaper.Its price is 200 Wen, and a piece of ordinary ink costs 300 Wen.As for the inkstone, she also bought the most common one, 200 Wen.

It takes two taels of silver to buy a set of the most common writing tools.You can buy 200 catties of rice or 200 catties of flour.

No wonder there are not many readers now.Ink, pen, paper and inkstone are all so expensive.In addition, Shuxiu spends nearly ten taels of silver every year.

She also bought three books to educate children, namely "Thousand Characters", "Hundred Surnames" and "San Zi Jing". This book is more expensive.A book is two taels of silver, which adds up to six taels of silver.

Shen Yunxi believes in the importance of knowledge and reading is necessary.

She teaches her children at home.After the house was built and the rice in the fields harvested, she sent the children to school.

It is not convenient to study here.She asked about the situation in a village 15 miles away from them.It takes the children four or five hours to go to and from school.

Time wasted on the road.

this is not good.When things in the village are settled, she will earn some money to build a school and hire people to teach the children in the village.It's not about her family.It's time for the whole village to ask Village Chief Tian for help.

At that time, she could also teach children arithmetic.

Shen Yunxi accompanies the children to study, and Zheng Guizhen cooks.

Zheng Guizhen boiled the fat and lean meat she bought.The leftover oil residue is served with leeks and dumplings.

Wash the fresh and tender chives, control the water, cut into small pieces, pour in the sesame oil residue, add oil and salt to taste, and stir well.

Zheng Guizhen's dumpling skins are amazing.Push the rolling pin with your right hand and hold the dumpling wrapper with your left hand.The dumpling skin is thick in the middle, thin on the sides, and smooth.It is not only suitable for making dumplings, but also delicious.

Shen Yunxi could only roll the dumpling wrapper with both hands.The rolled dumpling skin has the same thickness in the middle and both sides, and the shape of the dumpling skin is more random.Some are long, some are wide, and some are square.If you're lucky, you can even roll a round one.
