A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!

Chapter 142: Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival in Sujia Village

Time flies.

Two literacy classes have just concluded, and the new literacy class is still in the registration stage. It will not start until ten days later, after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

At the end of the course, the top three students in both classes received rewards from the old lady.

The reward was a silver coin and a set of genuine four treasures of the study.

Not to mention the silver coins, if you go to the city to buy the set of four treasures of the study, it will cost at least five taels of silver!

Besides, is this about money?

This can only be obtained by defeating dozens of people in a class. It shows that your child is smart and will definitely have a bright future!

And even if they didn't make it into the top three, the children would come back home and show their parents the words they had written stroke by stroke in their little notebooks, along with the little poems that followed those words, which were all very catchy.

Looking at my own child again, his original silly look seems to have become a little smarter now that he knows fifty words!

How could this not arouse the enthusiasm of learning among everyone in Zhuangzi?

Therefore, this second literacy class is not only for the previous students, but also for those who did not attend before and later regretted it.

However, in this second literacy class, we learned an additional fifty characters.

Obviously, those who didn’t attend the first period will not be able to keep up with the second period.

If the old lady hadn't announced that she would open a basic literacy class that everyone could attend during the slack season, those parents who hadn't allowed their children to attend would have regretted it very much.

But soon, the people in the village were attracted by the old lady's plan to hold a Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival.

This is the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival!

Their village was far away and poor, and they were thankful that they could have enough food to eat all year round.

Where would they get the extra money to go into the city to watch the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival?

Gaojiazhuang, twenty miles away from their village, is a famous wealthy village.

In previous years, when Gaojiazhuang celebrated festivals, the village would be decorated.

Those who have relatives in Gaojiazhuang will also walk a long way to see the lights.

The adults and children in Gaojiazhuang looked down on them in their words and deeds, and laughed at them for being poor and having never seen anything!

It was only in the past few months that their life on the farm became better that the relatives from Gaojiazhuang began to look up to them a little.

Sometimes I even come to them and ask if I can ask them to give away the mountain products I have picked.

Or pay to buy the remaining elixirs given by the old lady.

They are not stupid. Although the old lady is kind-hearted and doesn't care much, the maids and stewards under her are very shrewd and calculating!

If they sell these medicines, what will they do if their family members get sick again?

When the time comes, we can go and ask the old lady for help. The maids there will all remember the things the old lady gave to everyone!

Therefore, even if these elixirs could be sold for a good price, they would not dare to buy them.

Unless a very important relative is sick, I will only give him one or two pills...

Unexpectedly, the people in their village are now not only being asked for help by others.

There is actually a Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival!

In particular, the old lady took action and had a solid brick and stone platform built on the open space in front of the old manor.

There are guardrails on three sides of the platform, and a screen wall more than two people high on the other side.

The guardrail of this platform is very solid. Although there are no carvings, it is very delicately designed. There are also places reserved for placing lamps in the four corners, so there is no need to worry about the lamps being blown out by the wind or sparks spreading.

Nowadays, adults and children in the village go to touch this rare platform whenever they have free time.

When he thought about the lantern festival in their village which would be held in a few days, he couldn't help but giggle.

The old lady said that the more lively the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival is, the better, and it would be fine even if people from other villages came to watch.

This time, they will definitely notify the relatives from other villages early and ask them to come and see with their own eyes how good life is in Sujiazhuang!

On August 13th, the manor began to become lively.

There was an endless stream of carriages delivering holiday gifts.

First, someone came from Lin Bo's house to present a gift.

When the family was divided, Aunt Su could have lived in the uncle's house for a long time and let the eldest wife take care of her in her old age.

But Aunt Su looked down on the couple in the first wife's house because they had no future.

If I lived in the uncle's house for a long time, I would be annoyed to see that couple every day, so I might as well move out and get a yard for retirement, which is quiet and peaceful.

Therefore, according to the original agreement, the Linbo Mansion only needs to observe etiquette at all times.

The one who came to Lin Bo's house to deliver the festival gift was Ji's trusted maid, Lu.

The Lu family is quite sensible.

Although the Bo family sent a festival gift, she also paid for four kinds of fine snacks at a well-known shop in the city and presented them to the old lady. She also bought some snacks for Madam Jiao and asked her to share some with others.

Aunt Jiao was happy to be polite to her.

The Lu family is so smart that she doesn't even need to ask them to know all the big and small things going on in the Bo's mansion. It would be a pity if she didn't eat some of these melons.

Aunt Su glanced at the gift list from Uncle Lin’s residence.

This Ji family is really cunning and shrewd.

The gifts included clothing materials and food ingredients. Although the quantity seemed large, they were all very common items on the market... This fully demonstrated what affordable elderly care is.

Aunt Su smiled and asked someone to pack some local specialties from the farm as a return gift.

Although there were still a few tomatoes growing sporadically in the tomato fields, Aunt Su had someone cultivate some new seedlings using branches and prepare to plant them in the greenhouse.

The fairy fruit has long been out of stock in the boutique.

The income we earn every day is just enough to cover the expenses of the farm.

Aunt Su even had the leftovers made into ketchup.

So this time, no fruits with the word "immortal" on them were given to Lin Bo's mansion.

After Lin Bofu came, Lin Laoer came.

Lin Lao Er didn't have a carriage of his own, and he was very shrewd, so he was reluctant to hire one. Instead, he prepared a holiday gift, ran to the boutique, and took the horse-drawn carriage that was used to deliver goods back and forth.

Although the holiday gift sent by Lin Lao Er was also quite ordinary, its quality was actually better than that of the first wife's.

Lin Laoer even prepared a few small lanterns specifically for He Shan.

So, people like Lin Laoer, although their character is not very good, but as long as he is willing, he can definitely maximize his emotional value.
