The lady may not be human

Chapter 34 Reading
Dong Nuan naturally saw that the patriarch was weighing his interests.

She is not in a hurry, she has thought about it, and if she wants to live a better life at home, the first thing to do is naturally to please the most authoritative patriarch in the family, old man Dong.

Of course, it is useless to just blindly please.

If I was a boy and showed great talent, the other party might even have the idea of ​​sending me to study.

But I am a female doll, and in the nearby villages, I have never seen anyone who sent the female doll to study.

So, it's just flattery. After a long time, there is nothing to maintain this goodwill. Old man Dong's eyes will eventually be placed on others.

Blindly pleasing doesn't work, so hang a carrot in front of him and slowly lead him forward, so as to ensure that your status will not be shaken.

The patriarch was thinking about the relationship of interests at this time, as long as he figured it out, maybe he could still study along with him.

Even if you can't learn from a serious master, at least there are Dong Lao Wu, Dong Xu, and even the grandchildren of the patriarch's family.

Since the patriarch didn't speak, Old Man Dong naturally couldn't say anything.

The patriarch remained silent until he brought Old Man Dong and Dong Nuan back to their home.

Dongnuan's house is a simple mud house. Although there are quite a few rooms, there are [-] rooms in the main room, and the place is quite large. Apart from the main room in the middle, there are two rooms in the east and west for people to live in.

Of course, because Dongnuan's family did not have a separate family, so the population is large, the main house is not enough to live in, and three rooms are connected to the east side of the courtyard, two of which are for two-bedroom people, and the remaining one is for Mr. Dong Fifth, there is also Dongxu's study room, which is usually cleaned up so that no one in the family dares to go in casually.

But no matter how many houses there are, they are still mud houses.

In contrast, the patriarch's family is much richer. They live in a brick house, and the roof of Dong's house is covered with hay and mud. Once it rains, it is normal for the house to leak.

However, the roof of the patriarch's house is directly pressed with tiles, and it will not leak easily when it rains. Even if it leaks, it is much better than a mud house.

The patriarch's house is very large, with five spacious rooms, and there are wing rooms, warehouses and other places in front of the house.

The yard is also big enough, and the patriarch's family has long been separated, and now the family lives in the family of the patriarch and the eldest son, which makes the family's house even more spacious.

The patriarch took the people back home, and after entering the main room, Dongnuan greeted everyone obediently, not one of grandma, aunt, and sister-in-law was missed.

The people in the patriarch's family didn't know what happened, but seeing the serious face of the patriarch, they couldn't say anything. The patriarch's grandmother took the family outside with a smile and gave the space to the patriarch and the others.

Along the way, the patriarch has already considered it clearly: "Er Zhuang, starting tomorrow, don't let Nuan Ya go to the ground, let him learn to read with Liao Xiucai, and Shu Xiu is temporarily out of the clan."

Regarding the cost, the patriarch thought for a while and gave a clear explanation: "This cost will be paid by the clan for the time being. Whether it will be borne by the clan in the future depends on whether Nuan Ya's prescription can bring money to the clan. How much benefit."

When he said this, the patriarch took a deep look at Dongnuan, with sharp eyes.

That way seems to be saying that if she dares to fool the patriarch, she will definitely be punished in the future.

Dong Nuan blinked, and looked at the patriarch innocently, pretending that he didn't understand anything.

When old man Dong heard this, he wanted to send Dong Nuan to study. This was the first time in the world. There was no family in the village that sent a girl to study, and the family paid for it.

Looking at it this way, their family can't get along with this prescription, so they can only hand it over to the clan.

Old man Dong was a little unwilling, but soon he wanted to open it up. If Fang Zi was handed over, the patriarch would definitely remember his family's merits, and it was safer to be the leader of the clan than Dong Xu or the fifth child.

After all, one's strength is small, and in case of being deceived, there is no other way but to suffer from this dumb loss.

Furthermore, even if their family didn't receive any benefits, at least Dong Nuan was literate, and could be sent to a wealthy family in the county to be a maid in the future.

In just two sentences, old man Dong has already turned countless possibilities in his mind.

Regarding the words of the patriarch, he naturally responded with a smile: "Those things are used by immortals, so they are naturally the best."

After flattering the patriarch, the old man Dong turned his head, his expression became a bit more stern and said: "Nuanya, you have to study hard, try to recognize more characters, and memorize the prescription!"

Dong Nuan stood aside, pursed her lips obediently, and said softly: "I listen to Grandpa."

Seeing that Dong Nuan is so well-behaved, Old Man Dong's face softened a bit: "Don't be too anxious, don't read it wrong, study hard, memorize it well, if you dream about it, try to read more and come back."

"Hey." Dong Nuan was still very well-behaved.

This made old man Dong feel a little more comfortable, and the patriarch saw it and put a smile on his face.

The patriarch was responsible for this matter. Although it was a female doll, Liao Xiucai, who enlightened people in the village, did not refuse.

"But I can say the ugly words first. After all, Dongnuan is not young, and she knows people's affairs. If she doesn't study hard, mess up the classroom, and mess with other boys, I will beat her away directly. " Liao Xiucai was afraid that a little girl from Dong Nuan would come over and cause other students to wander.

No matter what, she was also a girl, so he had to make this clear in advance.

"Naturally, naturally." The patriarch naturally had no reason to do so, he walked around in front of Liao Xiucai with Old Man Dong and Dong Nuan, and settled down on the matter of studying.

Liao Xiucai in the village is only responsible for the enlightenment, he can't teach more advanced ones, and the talented ones, the family has already made plans to send them to the town or even the county as much as possible.

Therefore, Liao Xiucai's beam cultivation is not high, about two taels of silver a year.

It's just that in the farmyard, many people may not be able to study for a full year, and some of them can't continue after reading. This bundle of repairs can't be returned.

After a long time, Liao Xiucai thought of a way.

Such as the enlightenment in the village, the bundle repair is paid once a month. You can come this month after you pay it, and you don’t have to come this month if you don’t pay it.

As for whether you can keep up with the progress or something...

Liao Xiucai said that there are only so many things that I have learned over and over again, but if I can't keep up, I will follow up next month.

It is impossible to open a small stove unless you add money.

If it is paid on a monthly basis, it is one hundred and sixty cash per month, not including food expenses.

Dongnuan was delivered by the patriarch himself. Liao Xiucai looked at the thin noodles of the patriarch, but he saved a little. It only costs one hundred and fifty cash per month, not including food expenses.

If you want to eat here, there are two situations. One is to bring four liters of rice with you, plus [-] Wen, and the other is to pay [-] Wen directly and eat with Liao Xiucai’s family. You can eat whatever they eat .

It is impossible to eat well, you can only eat enough, and only one meal at noon.

Dong Nuan lived in the village, and the patriarch discussed with the old man Dong and asked her to go home to eat, so he didn't spend more money.
