Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

"Mom, then won't it mean that we can only see our eldest sister twice a month and our third sister once a month?"

Sicheng didn't feel anything just now, but Shanshan was suddenly left behind, which made him feel the feeling of parting.

The same goes for the other children. We have never been separated before, but now we feel a little sad.

"Don't be like that! We are all working hard for what we like. We still have time to meet each other every month. It's not like we will never see each other again. As long as we think more about happy things, time will pass quickly."

Ye Chao did not have a deep relationship with his elder sister, younger brother and younger sister, so he did not feel sad when they separated.

But for some reason, a hint of bitterness suddenly appeared in his heart. When he wanted to recall some fragments in his mind and wanted to explore them carefully, the fragments gradually disappeared, leaving him with a sense of emptiness in his heart.

This feeling really made people uncomfortable. Ye Chao walked around Sicheng in front of him and held Xia Shengsheng's hand.

Xia Shengsheng saw what Ye Chao was thinking, and held Ye Chao's hand tightly, giving him a sense of peace of mind.

This time, everything went exceptionally smoothly for Yiyi and Shanshan.

Sicheng is only four years old and not old enough to go to school.

Xia Shengsheng thought that his brothers and sisters were all studying in the provincial capital, so it would be convenient to pick them up together when he came back.

Moreover, the teaching quality in the capital city is definitely higher than that in the town.

Even if you don't go to a big academy, the small private schools run by scholars and candidates are better than those in town.

Ke Ercheng and Ye Chao refused to go.

Ercheng also wants to learn martial arts from Xia Shengsheng every day. If he studies in the provincial capital, he can only go back once every half a month. This time is too long and will delay his progress in martial arts training.

Ye Chao didn’t have too many thoughts, he just didn’t want to leave Xia Shengsheng.

Xia Shengsheng sat in the carriage and tried to persuade the two children, but they were like stubborn donkeys and just wouldn't listen!

Xia Shengsheng was so angry that she wanted to give up being a sensible mother and just beat them both up.

Si Chengzhen was completely indifferent to the matter, so he just kept aloof and smiled secretly on the side.

Xia Shengsheng had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and let the two go to a private school in the town so that they could go back and forth every day.

The two of them finally stopped being stubborn.

Before returning from the city, Xia Shengsheng took the children to have a simple lunch.

I also took a few children to buy some necessary items for the home, as well as the gift for Yiyi to become her teacher.

Two extra gifts for becoming a disciple were specially prepared, and the teacher Xia Shengsheng in the town knew about it.

After all, Liu Zhongqiang from the Liu family had been studying there.

The teacher's surname was Zhu and he was an old scholar. After passing the examination for the title of scholar, he probably felt that his qualifications were just that, so he never took the exam for a higher level.

Instead, he opened a small private school in the town, enrolled children of appropriate age and provided them with an education.

There aren’t many children going to school in the town, let alone in the surrounding villages.

Therefore, Zhu Xiucai has been recruiting students all year round.

As long as you have money for the renovation, everything is easy to discuss.

After shopping, we finally went to the clothing store and had three new sets of clothes made for each person.

Although Mrs. Su said she would prepare something for Shanshan, Xia Shengsheng couldn't rely entirely on others. Xia Shengsheng still knew the size of Shanshan's clothes. After all, she had just made new clothes some time ago, and the child had not grown so fast that the size needed to be changed.

The fabrics of the two girls' clothes are better and the colors are relatively elegant.

Xia Shengsheng and a few boys! They don't need to walk around the city often. If they dress too well when walking around the village or town, it will be too eye-catching.

So I chose ordinary fabric, but it is definitely much better than linen.

In fact, everyone has enough clothes to wear, but I just thought that for the children who are studying and learning skills, having a few more clothes to change into will not make people look down on them.

When we left Ning'an Prefecture, the air pressure in the car was a little low, and everyone was not as happy as when we left in the morning.

There was only Sicheng, who was heartless and kept talking about everything, but no one wanted to pay attention to him.

Yiyi is nervous about starting school tomorrow, while Ercheng and Ye Chao don't want to go out to study.

They were hoping that when they got to the town, Master Zhu would not accept them, so that they wouldn't have to study anymore.

But their wishes will always be unfulfilled.

The sun was almost setting when Xia Shengsheng returned to town.

It just happened to be the time when Master Zhu finished his get out of class.

The enrollment process went smoothly. I just paid the tuition fee directly. Since I didn't live with Mr. Zhu, I only had to pay for lunch besides the tuition fee.

A total of three taels and eight cents for half a year.

You can come and study tomorrow morning by bringing your gift of respect to your teacher.

Although Master Zhu was the only teacher in his small private school.

But it is divided into beginner and advanced classes.

The beginner class is for beginners, those who are just starting out, or those who have studied for one or two years.

The advanced class is for students who have studied for a few years and have a decent level of knowledge, and are generally preparing to take the examination for a tongsheng.

After they passed the examination to become a student, Master Zhu no longer taught them. Instead, he advised them to go to other towns, or directly to the provincial capital, to find a teacher with higher knowledge to study with.

It is no surprise that Er Cheng is in the beginner class, while Ye Chao is in the advanced class.

Xia Shengsheng had also expected this. When she first met Ye Chao, she knew that his identity was not ordinary, and his family conditions were naturally not ordinary either.

By the time he is about ten years old, he must have studied for a few years, and he is definitely different from Ercheng who has just studied for two months.

Before Xia Shengsheng left, he looked around for a while but did not see Liu Zhongqiang.

He is also studying here, and it is inevitable that the children will meet each other in the future.

However, Xia Shengsheng was not too worried, even though Liu Zhongqiang was a few years older than Biercheng and Ye Chao.

However, if a conflict really broke out, he would not be able to defeat Er Cheng and Ye Chao.

When I returned to the village, a lot of people had already gathered in front of Xia Shengsheng's house.

There were people carrying potatoes and sweet potatoes and comparing whose was better.

There were also women who gathered in twos and threes and said these words.

"Why are you all waiting here? I came back late today, and I can't tell you exactly when I'll be back. Wouldn't it be better if I could inform you when I get back, so you don't have to wait for me for so long in vain?"

Xia Shengsheng first said some polite words, then opened the door and quickly invited these people in.

"We just arrived not long ago, and we thought you would be back soon, so we can just wait here for a while. It won't be a problem."

"Yes, actually everyone is anxious to come to your place to sell potatoes and sweet potatoes! And there are a few of us, and we are afraid that if we come too late, you will need people to work and not use us anymore?"

Li Laoer's wife has always been cheerful and loves to joke. As soon as she spoke, the atmosphere became lively.

“It’s really because I came back late and made everyone anxious.

Sister Lanhua, don't worry about whether you need me or not. I would love for you to come work for me!"

Village Chief Ma came out of his house and came to Xia Shengsheng's house after hearing the donkey cart of Xia Shengsheng's family coming back, so after everyone chatted for a while, Village Chief Ma entered the yard.

"Xiao Xia is back? It's getting late. Let's finish what we need to do. If we delay any longer, it will be dark and it will be difficult to weigh the potatoes and sweet potatoes."
