The evil mother-in-law does not whitewash, she only abuses her children
Chapter 708: The resistance to literacy disappears
Tong Huaqiong looked at the reactions of the crowd and realized that the resistance to the girls in the tribe learning to read and write had finally disappeared.
The next thing is to buy land for sacrifice and allocate money for the clan members to study.
Tong Huaqiong entrusted the matter of the field sacrifice to Gu Dahan and Gu Fengnian, and the matter of studying to Gu Daqiao.
Su Qing was in charge of the girls' literacy.
Everything was arranged properly and everyone dispersed quickly.
The clan leader was a little unhappy because Tong Huaqiong had done all the clan leader's work. But when he thought that his great-grandson could go to school for free, he felt a little better.
The clan leader came over and wanted to speak to Tong Huaqiong, but Tong Huaqiong still looked unhappy.
The clan leader had no choice but to go and chat with Grandpa Gu.
The boys in the clan were excited and many of them thought that they would become scholars and juren like Gu Jingzhe, or even become high-ranking officials.
After all, Tong Huaqiong said that people with a talent for studying would cover all the expenses from elementary school to studying in Shengjing.
Tong Huaqiong looked at everyone's happy faces and thought that it was a good thing to want to make a name for oneself, but these free books were not easy to read. Anyone with a bad character or who took the opportunity of free reading to be lazy would be eliminated.
When Tong Huaqiong left the meeting room, Wu Na came over.
"Aunt, there are so many nephews and nieces in our clan who want to study, and there is only one Master Su in the private school. How about letting my Ruinian be the teacher for our nephews and nieces?" Wu Na smiled and added, "Ruinian can read and understand a lot. He almost became a scholar. He can definitely train more people for our Gu family."
Ever since Tong Huaqiong proposed to provide education for the talented people in the Gu family, Wu Na had been trying to persuade Gu Ruinian to go to Tong Huaqiong to ask for a teacher's position.
Gu Ruinian was unwilling.
Ever since he knew that Tong Huaqiong was his fellow villager and that she was able to beat him and see through his ugly side, he has avoided Tong Huaqiong like a scorpion.
He felt that he was qualified to be a teacher. After all, he was the only 985 graduate in the village in modern times.
As a teacher, he no longer has to work in the fields.
However, making him beg Tong Huaqiong for help was more painful than killing him.
Therefore, he was unwilling to ask Tong Huaqiong to let Wu Na play.
Wu Na danced in front of Tong Huaqiong without saying a word.
The child is about to be born, and I have no money. I even throw a tantrum when I eat an egg. Life is so miserable.
If Gu Ruinian could become a teacher and have rice every month, she could get rid of everyone in the old house and live separately from Gu Ruinian.
Tong Huaqiong smiled and directly rejected Wu Na's request.
"Aunt, why do you have such a big objection to Ruinian? He can definitely be a good teacher. If you are not confident in his knowledge, why not let him teach the girls in the clan to read? Teaching literacy does not require any knowledge." Wu Na clung to Tong Huaqiong.
She is determined to get this position as a teacher.
Tong Huaqiong wondered what the girls in the tribe had done to deserve a tutor like Gu Ruinian.
Judging from the thoughts of Gu Ruinian Yaozu and Long Aotian, not only do they disrespect the girls in the clan, they may even be thinking of starting a harem.
She didn't want Gu Jingzhe to harm the girls in the tribe.
Gu Ruinian is a poisonous snake who is now forced to hide his venom, which he will release once he gets the chance.
Tong Huaqiong said, "Anyone can do it, except Ruinian. You don't have to ask for it. It's useless to ask for it."
After saying that, he raised his legs and walked out.
A hateful look fell on Tong Huaqiong.
Tong Huaqiong turned around, and Gu Ruinian trembled with fear and quickly avoided eye contact.
"Coward." Tong Huaqiong cursed.
After Tong Huaqiong left, Wu Na pulled Gu Jingzhe and said, "Why didn't you go and ask the aunt just now? You asked me to do it, but I don't have that much face. The aunt is really petty. She just thinks that I am a member of the Wu family and Tong Pandi has a grudge against our Wu family, so she holds a grudge against me. You can read and write. Even if you are not allowed to teach boys to read and take the imperial examinations, you can teach girls to read. Isn't this better than hiring a teacher outside? But she doesn't show any mercy to me."
Gu Ruinian looked gloomy.
Without paying any attention, Wu Na turned and left.
Wu Na then grabbed Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu and said, "Grandpa and grandma, you have to help us. Ruinian can definitely teach the girls in the tribe to read. I just went to ask my aunt, but she didn't give me any face and didn't agree to let Ruinian be a teacher."
"Please ask my aunt for help. I'm about to give birth, and there's no money at home. It's hard to raise a child just by digging for food in the soil. If Ruinian can become a teacher, our life won't be so difficult."
It was rare that Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu agreed with Wu Na's proposal.
However, when I thought of my eldest daughter-in-law's cold face, I couldn't bring myself to ask her, and even if I did, she wouldn't buy it.
Old Mrs. Gu thought of her sisters-in-law.
Tong Huaqiong was very respectful to her sister-in-law, calling her "Second Aunt" much more affectionately than she did her mother-in-law.
Old Mrs. Gu put aside her opinion of her second aunt and came to her side, wanting her to help ask Tong Huaqiong to allow Gu Ruinian to teach the girls in the tribe.
"......It's okay even if the money is a little less, at least I can earn some to support the family." Old Mrs. Gu looked at her second aunt expectantly.
The second aunt waved her hand and said coldly: "Don't ask me for help. You know Ruinian's situation better than me. I don't think anyone would dare to learn to read from him. I'm embarrassed to ask your daughter-in-law for help."
Old Mrs. Gu was so angry that her teeth were itching.
She even lowered her head, but her sisters-in-law didn't give her any face at all.
Old Man Gu scanned the surroundings with his eyes, fixed on Wei and Gu Fengnian, and frightened his grandson and his granddaughter-in-law so much that they ran away one after another.
Gu Fengnian thanked himself countless times for returning to the right path and following his wife and sister to seek refuge with his aunt.
Gu Fengnian thought that their family of three, including their younger sister, had finally been able to live a good life thanks to their eldest aunt, and they couldn't let their younger brother hold them back.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu asked around for help, but no one dared to go to Tong Huaqiong to plead for Gu Ruinian.
The people in the clan talked about it behind her back. As Tong Huaqiong's parents-in-law, they didn't dare to ask for help. How could they dare to do so?
In desperation, the people in the Gu family's old house gave up the idea of Gu Ruinian becoming a teacher.
Wu Na was so angry that she threw things around at home, complaining about her miserable life and that she blamed Mr. and Mrs. Gu for not caring about her and Ruinian's life.
Old Mrs. Gu was so angry that she scolded Wu Na.
Amidst the noise and bustle, Gu Honglian's wedding day arrived.
As the only daughter of an old man was getting married, Mr. and Mrs. Gu naturally wanted to make it a grand occasion.
But the conditions at home don't allow it.
Gu Honglian was also quite capable and managed to trick fifty taels of silver out of Fan Tong.
Old Man and Old Lady Gu used the fifty taels of silver that Gu Honglian had defrauded, plus the silver that Old Lady Gu had seized from Jia and the twenty taels of silver sent by her parents, and they had quite a lively occasion.
Everyone in the Gu family had arrived, and Tong Huaqiong, as the eldest sister-in-law, naturally had to attend as well.
