Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year

If conditions permit, he really wants to send his younger brothers and sisters to school.

Life was poor before, so any ideas they had could only be kept to themselves. Now Xiao Si follows Aunt San in doing business, and they have four acres of land, so they can squeeze in enough to send Xiao Qi to school.

"Second brother, this is a good idea." Si Lang laughed. Why hadn't he thought of this? "Xiao Qi, study hard and come back every night to teach us a few words. Fourth brother doesn't ask for anything else. I'll be satisfied if you can recognize a hundred words."

"And me, and me!" Xiaowu was so happy.

Even Lidong rubbed Xiaoqi's head and said, "If you don't study well, come back and see how I'll beat you."

Xiaoqi felt so much pressure that his face fell.

Erlang looked at his younger brothers and sisters who were laughing and making a mess, and the thin boy smiled silently.

Things that I never dared to imagine before seem to be slowly becoming real.

Life is really getting better and better.

"Okay, there's no need to rush about studying. Let's talk about the current situation first." Lin smiled and stopped them.

"I'll go to the village head's house to get the deed later. The pile of pottery bowls and basins at the door also need to be transported to the threshing ground. Two people will also go to clean the warehouse over there. Now let's divide the work."

Shi Lang rushed to say, "I'll go borrow an ox cart."

Lidong followed and said, "Aunt San, I'll go clean up."

Erlang nodded to Lin: "Then I will stay at home and load the car."

Mrs. Lin smiled at the children and said, "That's what we'll do. However, since the threshing ground is rented, we can't borrow the ox carts for free. Silang, talk to Uncle Mazi about it. We'll charge five cents per cart. Calculate how many carts we'll need."

"There are eight carts in total at the door. At five cents per cart, that's..." Shiro answered quickly, but got stuck when it came to the math.

"Forty coins." Lin blurted out and said to Cui Zhaozhao, "Give him forty coins, and Jingwen find a piece of paper to write down the account clearly."

Since the scale is large, the accounts must be kept clearly.

Besides, she had other plans.

Cui Jingwen quickly went into the house and brought out a stack of papers. Cui Zhaozhao also counted out forty copper coins, and another three hundred coins, which was the rent for the threshing ground.

The black words on the white paper were neat and smooth. Cui Jingwen blew on the paper as usual after finishing writing. As soon as he blew, a furry head popped up at his elbow.

Xiaoqi imitated Cui Jingwen, standing on tiptoe, puffing up his cheeks, and blowing air carefully.

Cui Jingwen couldn't help laughing, but was also touched by Xiaoqi's well-behaved appearance. He handed the paper to him and let him blow it to his heart's content.

Xiao Qi scratched his head shyly, looked at the words on the paper greedily, and blew carefully a few times until the ink on the paper dried.

I feel very involved.

The division of labor was completed and several people set off on their own.

Lin went to the village head's house.

"Come and see how it's written."

The headman put down his pen, picked up the paper and shook it. Just as he was about to hand it to Lin, he suddenly remembered something and looked behind her.

"Why didn't Jingwen come with you? Then you..."

"I know a few words, so I can probably understand it."

The village head had only been in school for half a year and could barely write some common characters. If we really talked about recognizing characters, I'm afraid ten village heads couldn't compare to her.

The village head slapped his head and thought he was getting old and confused.

Since Jingwen is so well-educated, it is normal for Lin to recognize words.

"Then do you think it's okay to write it this way?"

There were only three lines of words on the paper, indicating that the threshing ground in Xiahe Village was rented to the Cui family for use, with a rent of one hundred coins per day.

Lin took a quick look and nodded.

"No problem, but it would be better if the lease was changed to Xiahe Village."
