After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

"Miss Song, are you willing to open a school and be a female teacher?" Ding Xirui asked.

"Me? Open a school?" Song Hanzhang pointed his index finger at himself, unable to believe what he had just heard.

"Correct."

"Doctor Ding, you're joking. Hanzhang is just a maid now, how can she open a school?" Song Hanzhang's eyes dimmed and she shook her head.

"Let's take a step back and open a school in the Niu family first. What do you think?" Ding Xirui stepped forward.

"At the Niu family? Will the master and the mistress agree?" Song Hanzhang's voice trembled slightly.

"How can we know if we don't try?" Ding Xirui patted her hands. "Wait a minute, let's go see Mr. and Mrs. Niu together."

"Okay..." Song Hanzhang clenched his hands and nodded.

Several people turned around and the servant in the corridor stood up.

"Young man, take us to see the lady."

"Please come this way."

In the main hall, Mrs. Niu had just finished dealing with farm affairs, seeds, labor, everything cost money. She couldn't just leave it to the housekeeper, but she didn't know many words and wrote slowly, so it took her a lot of effort.

"Doctor Ding is here." Mrs. Niu put the account book aside and stood up to greet him. She looked thinner.

"Madam!" Ding Xirui bowed.

"Doctor Ding, please take a seat." Madam Niu said as she motioned to the maid to pour tea. "Is there any problem with Xiao Ben?"

"There hasn't been any problem so far, so just continue with the current method." Ding Xirui sat down and smiled faintly.

"Thank you. Not to mention Xiao Ben, I also feel that my clothes are looser now." Mrs. Niu raised her hand and pulled her sleeves.

"You're welcome." Ding Xirui nodded in response, and then said, "Madam, I came here today to ask for your permission for one more thing."

"You say."

Ding Xirui turned his head and glanced at Song Hanzhang.

"Actually, it's Miss Xiaoqiao's business. Today, when I entered the young master's courtyard, I saw Xiaoqiao teaching someone to write. She was very methodical and thorough."

Xiaoqiao, that is, Song Hanzhang, bowed slightly.

"Are you girls so idle?" Mrs. Niu's face changed and the aura of a housekeeper came out.

"Madam, I dare not." Song Hanzhang quickly lowered his head and bent down.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry, please don't blame Xiaoqiao. I didn't make it clear. They are working in the garden and learning calligraphy at the same time. They haven't delayed the affairs of the mansion." Ding Xirui looked at Song Hanzhang with apology in his eyes.

She didn't take care of the household affairs, and didn't understand the housekeeper's sensitivity to people "slacking off" in the mansion. It was really wrong to let Song Hanzhang suffer this injustice for nothing.

"Please get up. I was a little too loud just now."

Mrs. Niu raised her hand and motioned Song Hanzhang to stand up.

"Madam, my original idea is that since Xiaoqiao can read and stays in the mansion all day, it is very convenient. Why don't you let Xiaoqiao be a teacher and teach the servants in the mansion to read, even if it is just teaching the Thousand Character Classic. If so, everyone in your mansion will be well-educated and sensible in the future, and the Niu Mansion will be famous in Luocheng County, which is not comparable to other wealthy mansions."

After listening to this, Mrs. Niu moved her eyes and nodded slowly. However, she did not agree immediately. She silently calculated in her heart that if she took time out for the servants to study, it would delay their work. Moreover, if they all learned to read, they might find another job. After all, the wages of literate people in various mansions were higher. This would affect the stability of the mansion. However, what Doctor Ding said made sense, so why not...

"Doctor Ding, your idea is very good. However, my family has many affairs to attend to, and we are very busy. I am afraid that we can only let some people learn from Xiaoqiao first. They don't need to learn so much, just don't be blind." Mrs. Niu did not intend to let the outsiders learn. The maids and children bought by the Niu family could learn, because they were all members of the Niu family. Besides, they didn't need to learn more, as it would be wrong for them to surpass their master.

"Thank you, ma'am. You are an expert in managing the household, so everything will naturally be arranged by you." Ding Xirui understood Madam Niu. After weighing the interests, this was already very good.

Madam Niu looked at Xiaoqiao and said:

"Since Xiaoqiao has become a teacher, the mansion will not treat her badly, and her monthly salary will be higher in the future."

"Thank you, Madam. Since you have given me this opportunity, I am already content and do not ask for money."

"You don't have to do this. If you really do more for the Niu Mansion, the mansion will not treat you unfairly."

Just as Xiaoqiao was about to decline, Ding Xirui spoke up:

"Madam, your family is indeed extraordinary. You know how to appoint people to the right positions, which is admirable."

"Doctor Ding...you are too polite." Mrs. Niu wanted to say "you're welcome" to be polite to Ding Xirui, but she couldn't think of the word for a moment.

"Thank you, ma'am, and thank you, Doctor Ding." Song Hanzhang was delighted and bowed again.

That’s how the elementary school matter was settled.

After leaving the Niu Mansion, Ding Xirui breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Miss, do you still remember Mr. Zhong?" Banxia asked.

"Um……"

Who is Mr. Zhong? Ding Xirui's brain began to work rapidly, but in this context, Mr. Zhong must be the one who taught Ding Xirui to read and write.

"Mr. Zhong passed away due to illness ten years ago. If the young lady had been a doctor at the time, perhaps Mr. Zhong could have lived a few more years." Banxia continued.

"Hey, don't think about the past. What's important is the present and the future." Ding Xirui felt a chill on his back. If he continued, he might be exposed.

"Yeah." Banxia didn't ask any more questions and pursed her lips.

The two continued to walk forward, and Ding Xirui's heart finally fell back from her throat to her chest. Her thoughts turned from herself to the Song Hanzhang sisters.

Soon, Song Hanzhang will definitely come out of Niu Mansion, and she can do more than just record.

The two walked to the main street and saw a notice posted on the bulletin board. People nearby were gathered together to read it.

"The mountain road between Luocheng County and Lan County will be repaired soon!" The people inside passed the news.

"That's great!" Banxia hugged Ding Xirui's arm, "Madam, this will be much more convenient in the future."

Ding Xirui turned her head and smiled, but her palms were sweating. In Lan County, were there many people she "knew"? How terrible it would be if she couldn't recognize them.

The onlookers started talking.

"Why, do you want to move your stall to Lan County?" an old man asked the young man at the wonton stall.

"Why not? I can also open branches of my small stall, hahahaha."

"I heard that people in Lan County don't have enough to eat, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"My neighbor is from Lan County. He managed to escape during the famine. He said that even in normal years, there was very little food. There was nothing we could do because there were too many mountains."

As Banxia listened, the memories of her childhood of being hungry came to her mind. Her stomach began to ache for no apparent reason and her eyes became wet.

"Madam, let's go."

"it is good."
