Is the beginning of a catastrophe? The little farm cook is raising a family with a full warehouse.
Chapter 96 Women disguised as men
"Sister, I don't want to go to school anymore."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings suddenly became much quieter. Cheng Yueli blinked her big eyes and stared at Cheng Jingzhu in surprise, not understanding why he said that.
Going to school openly and honestly was her dream! How could her brother just say he didn't want to go?!
Cheng Yuntao was also a little surprised, but she didn't blame him immediately. Instead, she asked sincerely, "Xiaozhu, can you tell me why?"
She knew that Cheng Jingzhu was also an obedient and well-behaved child. He said these words not out of anger, but because he had his own thoughts.
After a period of careful consideration, Cheng Jingzhu was no longer as hesitant and timid as before, but instead mustered up the courage to speak out what was in his mind.
"Sister, I originally thought that going to school would just mean reading the textbook with the teacher, shaking my head, and time would pass in the blink of an eye. But after listening to what that scholar Lin said just now, I realized I was wrong. I thought this matter was too simple."
"Studying is a lifelong endeavor, and Master Lin is incredibly strict. He naturally wouldn't tolerate his students slacking off. But I'm a restless person, restless, and my memory isn't great. If I really were to go to that private school, I'd probably be so stupid I'd piss Master Lin off in a matter of days and get kicked out."
"I... I admit I'm useless. I can't stand sitting in one place all day, memorizing those densely packed small characters. I'm even more afraid of seeing your disappointed eyes. Compared to going to school, I would rather follow my master, practice martial arts every day, and strengthen my body."
Cheng Jingzhu poured out everything in his mind in one breath, then he breathed a long sigh of relief, looking a lot more relaxed.
But soon, he became uneasy again and secretly observed Cheng Yuntao's expression.
Because he knew very well that this was a rare opportunity, but he did not know how to cherish it. It would be terrible if he disappointed his sister because of this.
But to his surprise, Cheng Yuntao was not angry at all. Instead, she laughed out loud: "So that's why, Xiaozhu, you should have told me earlier. Sister wouldn't have scolded you."
"You really won't scold me?" Cheng Jingzhu blinked faster, and the corners of his drooping mouth began to curl up.
"Everyone has different ambitions. Even if you don't like studying, you still have your own interests and interests."
"Every profession has its own specializations. Merchants, while traveling far and wide, manage the availability of goods. Miraculous doctors, with their magical skills, can cure illnesses and disasters, and even bring the dead back to life. Orators, with their eloquence, can maneuver and resolve disputes. And chivalrous swordsmen, with their superior martial arts, can eliminate violence and protect the people..."
"It is precious for a person to have a skill. As long as you practice diligently with your master in the coming days and improve your martial arts, that will be enough."
Cheng Yuntao opened her red lips slightly, her voice was not loud but steady and powerful, every word was clearly transmitted to Cheng Jingzhu's ears, like a trickle of water, moistening things silently, and like the morning bell and evening drum, awakening the deaf.
"Yeah! I remember it!"
Cheng Yuntao shifted her gaze to Xiaoli beside her, and suddenly a bold idea popped into her mind.
"Xiao Li, you told me before that you wanted to go to school. If it's really hard, can you stick with it?"
Cheng Yueli's eyes lit up and she nodded rapidly.
"I can hold on! If the teacher is strict, I'll be obedient. If the homework is heavy, I'll do it slowly. It won't take much longer. Once I've learned enough and gained enough skills, I'll be able to help my sister in the future!"
"But I'm a girl... Didn't my sister say that those private schools don't accept girls as students?"
The little face that was just filled with joy was now filled with sorrow and loss, like a delicate flower that was hit by a storm and quickly withered.
Cheng Yuntao pulled her brother and sister-in-law in front of her and looked at their two little faces carefully.
Alike! So much alike! They are indeed twins, a boy and a girl. Although they are one boy and one girl, they are still the two most alike people in the world.
The family had just moved here and although they had greeted all the neighbors, they usually didn't bother each other, let alone pay attention to other people's children.
In addition, Xiaoli and Xiaozhu are not too old now, and their statures don't look much different. If the younger sister Xiaoli dresses up as a man, people who are not familiar with her may be fooled.
The more Cheng Yuntao thought about it, the more she felt that the method was feasible. Since Xiaozhu didn't want to go to school, why not give this opportunity to Xiaoli?
Even if I get caught, what's the harm? I've learned what I need to learn, and the worst that can happen is I can just stay home and learn the rest on my own.
Anyway, she has never been afraid of so-called gossip. As long as it does not violate public order and does not hurt others, she will just act according to her inner thoughts.
In this long and mundane world, people's gossips are always complicated and nosy. Today they comment on one family, and tomorrow they gossip about that family.
If you care about everything, won't you be bound by all the rumors, lose your original intention, and lose the courage and freedom to move forward?
It is better to relax your mind so that you can live a comfortable and happy life.
Cheng Yuntao's heart was burning with anger, and she immediately expressed her thoughts: "Xiao Li, sister wants you to dress up as a man and pretend to be your brother to go to school. Do you dare?"
When these words came out, both children were startled and said in unison: "What?!"
It was Cheng Yueli who reacted first. After a brief hesitation, she decisively held Cheng Yuntao's hand.
"Sister! I dare you!"
Cheng Yuntao's eyes flashed with admiration. As expected of her sister! She was indeed courageous!
"Come with me into the house. I'll find two sets of Xiaozhu's clothes for you to try on."
"Uh-huh!"
The two sisters held hands and walked towards the house, leaving Cheng Jingzhu alone in the wind.
But soon, he accepted it.
He had lived with the female elders of his family since he was a child, and under their guidance, he had much less prejudice against women than ordinary men.
Cheng Yuntao has been taking the lead in running the household in this period of time and has long become the backbone of the family. Cheng Jingzhu admires her very much, so he will subconsciously support all the decisions she makes.
In addition, Cheng Jingzhu and Cheng Yueli have been together day and night, and he has always known that his sister has a good memory and is quite interested in reading and writing. Now, this time, it can be said that a good thing has been brought about by accident.
