Baby brings his own shopping mall to travel through

In the evening, in the main hall of Yang Dashan's house, the three older sons went to school, leaving only the youngest son and daughter to eat with them.

Xiaocao'er was sitting on a chair and struggling with the bowl of egg custard. A few days ago, she asked Simao to draw a child seat according to her ideas and asked Tietou's father to make it. Then she would sit in the child seat and eat by herself during every meal while wearing a modern bib.

It's just that I can't hold the spoon well, and it always hits my nose, making the floor dirty. Then the seat is placed on a piece of plastic sheet, and after each meal I just take out the plastic sheet and wash it, and it's very clean.

But she made the food all over the floor. Old Lady Yang and the others felt so distressed when they saw the food on the floor, so they decisively bought a few chicks. Such a shameful thing as wasting food must not happen in their own home.

That day, Uncle Li brought his two elders and a few kids to deliver dividends to the Yang family, telling them that the soy product workshop was now on track. He hired a few people in the village, and with the help of his own family, a considerable amount was produced every day.

As for those who carry their goods on shoulders, we select a dozen smart ones from the village. They sell them at a price two cents per pound lower than the retail price and negotiate among themselves where to sell them. They can receive copper coins or exchange them for beans. Some carry their goods on shoulders and some push carts. Although it is hard work to go from village to village hawking, they earn money every day and it is easier than doing hard labor outside.

The two elders of the Li family hugged Xiaocao'er and kissed him for a while, and then the boys started to play with Simao, chasing each other. They were all boys and older than Simao.

Miss Xiaocao saw this and felt a headache. [What's the fun of running around? Before they came, my fourth brother was a quiet handsome man when he was reading. As soon as you came, he turned into a madman. You should also go to school and learn to read.]

Indeed, the Yang brothers are all good-looking. Usually, Simao would not act crazy when he is at home with his sister. He would just read, write, and draw quietly. He would only play a little crazily when he is with the members of the Sausage Guard. But only a little. They have tasks every day, which are to learn to read and count, and also to teach the Three Character Classic. They don't have books, so they just recite with Simao and then write on the ground.

Now Simao uses paper to post the words they need to learn every day on a board outside the yard, and they can learn in the original drying yard. Every day, they learn to read for half an hour, count for half an hour, and spend the rest of the time at will. Anyway, Simao goes home at a certain time, and the board is taken home at night and taken out again the next day. Those who want to learn can come, and those who don’t want to learn don’t have to come, and they don’t force themselves. In the past, the most people were drying sausages, but now they are preparing for spring plowing and the work has become busy. Only a few of the little guards have persisted. Goudan and Tietou will also come to learn in the afternoon. Those who don’t know or can’t remember can go into the house to ask Simao. Simao was very serious when teaching everyone to learn to read, like a little teacher.

Li: "Brother, our family conditions are not as good as before. I remember there used to be a private school in the next village. It's not too far from home. The little boys can't help at home, so why not send them to school to learn a few words? After they learn to read and count, they can help the family. When the business grows, they will be able to sign documents and understand them by themselves and won't be cheated."

Xiao Cao also agreed: "Read and learn to read." Now Miss Xiao Cao speaks better and better. She doesn't speak one word at a time like before, but now she speaks two or three words at a time.

Uncle Li called the boys outside the yard in. "Your little cousin is learning to read now. Although your cousin Da Mao and his friends taught him when they came back, he has memorized a lot of words and can do arithmetic. He also teaches his friends in the village to read. I want to send you to the school in the next village. What do you think?"

The children were all confused. Aren’t they here to see their aunt? Why are they talking about school?

The children looked at each other, not knowing how to answer. They had never thought about going to school, and there was no educated person in their family.

Simao: "Reading can make people wise and happy. If you know how to read, you won't be cheated. If you know how to read, you won't get lost and can't find your way home. I like reading and I know a lot of characters. I have read "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Names". I can also count and teach my friends to read. I can also read vernacular novels and travel notes by myself. I can know the customs and habits of other places without leaving home. Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. I will go on a study tour in the future. The world is so big and I want to see it all."

Everyone was stunned by Simao's words. They didn't expect that such a young child knew more than them adults.

They didn't think about all these. They just wanted to learn to read and write. If they were good enough, they would take the imperial examination. If they could pass the examination and become a scholar, their ancestors would be very happy. If they couldn't pass the examination, it didn't matter. At least they could read and write and find a decent job.

This is the first time I’ve heard of someone like Simao’s idea of traveling and studying.

Yang Dashan: My son has great ambitions.

Li: My son is amazing

Old Lady Yang: Listen, listen, how old is my little grandson? He knows how many words he has learned, but he knows that he needs to read ten thousand books.

Oh, my little grandson, if you want to read ten thousand books, how much money will that cost?
