"Grandma and mom and dad also traveled through time?" Shen Mingshu's eyes were filled with tears and his whole body was shaking with excitement.

"Yeah." Shen Mingzhu was also very excited. Now that her whole family had traveled through time, she no longer had to worry about her brother.

The system said that their bodies had been destroyed in the plane explosion, and if her brother had not traveled through time, she would never see him again.

Seeing that her brother was so excited, Shen Mingzhu quickly said to Shen Mingshu, "Brother, please keep your voice down. Don't let my uncle and the others hear you."

"Yes, Mingzhu, we have all grown small, and this place is too poor. But don't worry, I will definitely earn a good future for you and let you live the life of a rich lady again."

"Isn't it just starting over? This is no problem for our family."

"No, brother, in this world, young ladies from wealthy families have no status. If they are favored by an official, they can be taken as concubines at any time. Brother, you want to study and become an official, so let me be an official's daughter."

"But Mingzhu, I studied science in my previous life. If I were to become an official, I might as well go after my father."

"What's wrong with science? You are a graduate student at Peking University and Tsinghua University, and you skipped several grades and were recommended to Peking University. You are a graduate student and you are so smart, what's the big deal about taking the imperial examination?"

"Brother, I believe you can do it." Shen Mingzhu encouraged her brother with a smile.

--------

Early in the morning, as soon as Shen Mingzhu got up, she heard her brother reading aloud. After washing up, she saw her brother sitting at the window of the study reading aloud.

"Brother, you are still working so hard."

Shen Mingzhu smiled brightly. She saw her father holding a book and reading silently in the yard. She walked over, looked at the book in her father's hand, and asked, "Is this the Three Character Classic?"

"Well, Zhuzhu, how about Daddy teach you to learn the language of this world?"

"Okay," Shen Mingzhu nodded. After all, she was an excellent student at a prestigious university in her previous life and had studied abroad for two years. She didn't want to be illiterate.

In her previous life, she and her brother both had smart minds and could learn things easily, but this body seemed very stupid. Her memory was not as good as before, and it was not as easy for her to learn things as in her previous life.

"Dog, is there any medicine or pill in the system that can increase memory?"

"Yes, host. The medicines that can improve memory include photographic memory medicine, memory enhancement medicine, and intelligence medicine..."

"So expensive? I can't even afford it now." Shen Mingzhu was a little disappointed and sighed.

“After coming to this world, I realized that without money, nothing can be done.”

The system continued, "Host, if you complete more tasks or trade more, you will be able to get a large gift box of random rewards. Maybe these reward gift boxes can contain these liquid medicines or pills."

"Dog, I suspect you are leading me to spend money..."

"No, host, how can you say that to me? I just want to advance earlier. If I advance, won't the host be able to get more benefits?"

"Then give me a few tasks and I'll pick one to do!"

"Uh, host, system tasks are random, and there is nothing yet..." The system's voice became smaller and smaller. Shen Mingzhu rolled her eyes speechlessly and sat on the stone bench next to Shen Laosan.

Speaking of which, their small courtyard is really comfortable.

Not only are there some lush green vegetables planted in the yard, but there is also a grape rack. Under the grape rack there is a stone table and four stone benches. Sitting in the yard, looking at the green all over the yard and breathing the fresh air, you will feel refreshed.

When Shen Laosan saw Shen Mingzhu sitting down, he opened the Three Character Classic and said to Shen Mingzhu: "This is the Three Character Classic. The characters are very similar to the ancient traditional Chinese characters. You can read it yourself."

Shen Laosan was not worried at all about Shen Mingzhu's learning to read. He handed the book to Shen Mingzhu and picked up another book to read.

Shen Mingzhu felt a little overwhelmed when looking at the traditional Chinese characters in the "Three Character Classic".

Why do these characters have so many strokes? Even if she can recite the Three Character Classic, she can't remember the strokes of these characters!

Thinking of something, Shen Mingzhu ran to the kitchen to get a few unburned charcoal sticks, sharpened them with a sickle, and then ran to the stone table and took notes on the book word by word.

In order to remember the words here faster, Shen Mingzhu began to use pinyin in the book.

She took notes and read aloud.

This method of learning was often used by her and her brother in her previous life. Reading aloud in the morning is conducive to memory and is best for studying.

When Old Man Shen came back from inspecting the fields, he heard the sound of reading in the backyard. Out of curiosity, he went to the backyard and saw that the three people in the third brother's family who did not like reading were actually picking up books and reading.

This is really new. Is the sun rising from the west?

He thought Shen Laosan and the other two were putting on a show, but when he walked closer, he found that Laosan was reading seriously and did not disturb them. Then he looked at Shen Mingzhu and discovered that Shen Mingzhu could actually read the Three Character Classic.

Old man Shen felt that this world was mysterious. His granddaughter had never learned to read, so how could she read "Three Character Classic" so fluently?

When he saw the crooked comments on the Three Character Classic, he frowned and asked, "What are these? Why are you scribbling on the book?"

"It's pinyin! It helps me learn Chinese characters!"

Shen Mingzhu had already seen Old Man Shen, but pretended not to see him, deliberately arousing Old Man Shen's curiosity and attracting his attention.

In fact, she wanted to spread Pinyin through Old Man Shen.

Scholars in this world are very particular about reputation. Old Man Shen is a scholar and an old teacher. If Old Man Shen can teach the children pinyin, it will be much easier for the children to start learning.

This will not only make it easier for children to be enlightened, but also increase the popularity of Old Man Shen.

Shen Mingzhu knew how important the reputation and fame of scholars were. Especially in this world, if Old Man Shen was the first person to spread Pinyin, it would be a great thing for her family.

The popularization of pinyin is a great thing for the entire country.

Old man Shen asked doubtfully: "What is pinyin?"

"It's in Pinyin. Grandpa, please sit down first."

"You see, human nature is good at birth. Natures are close, but habits make them different. If there is no teaching, nature will change..."

"Third brother, when did you teach Zhuzhu to read?" Old man Shen asked Third brother in disbelief.

Shen Lao San then put down the book and pretended to ask, "Dad, what did you say?"

Old Man Shen raised the book in his hand and slapped it on Old Third Shen's head, "Why are you pretending? Now you are pretending to study hard, what were you doing before?"

Old man Shen got angry when he saw the pretentious look of Shen Lao San. Among his three sons, the third son had the best talent for studying. He had placed his greatest hopes on the third son, but the third son was uneducated and lost his ambition on material things. He even hung out with a group of hooligans in the town. This really pissed him off.

"I'm asking you when you taught Zhuzhu to read? Don't you understand?"

"Aiya! Dad, why did you hit me? Didn't you just teach her today? What's so strange about that?"

Shen Lao San imitated his original appearance, touched his head and said aggrievedly.

Now it was Old Man Shen's turn to be dumbfounded: "What? You just taught Zhuzhu to read today?"
