Chapter 112

Going back on a bamboo raft, A Li took the initiative to take on the job of rowing.

Being so diligent won the favor of Wen Shan and Tang Qingshu.

back home.

Ah Li saw Wen Shan's home so bright and spacious, and he praised it repeatedly. In such a troubled world, Wen Shan and the others still have the time and mood to build such a big house. nothing.

Then he sighed again, it would be good to build a house deep in the mountains, and even if the enemy came, he would not be found if he hid deep.

A Li escaped from the frontier.

Her family members were all killed by the enemy in the frontier. Regarding these past events, she did not see much sadness when she mentioned them. On the contrary, she looked down on all optimism.

Wen Shan didn't ask any further questions, and asked Xu Yiyi to get some clothes for A Li, and asked her to take a bath and change.

A Li is 16 years old this year, with a sweet appearance, a pair of eyes that are as big as oval eggs, and his eyes are as bright as the sun in every move.

She is diligent and has a bright personality, and within a few days, she got into a ball with Qiu Liu and the others.

Ah Li's strength was as great as she said, a boulder twice as heavy as her, and she grabbed it as if she could catch a chicken.

Winter is over and spring is here.

Tang Qingshu was busy farming, and there were many rocks in the mountains.

They were the men who worked together to get the boulder away before, but after seeing A Li, they were all ashamed.

When Tang Qingshu came back, although his expression was sad, he also sighed, "Shan Niang, Ah Li, give her more wages, she is very powerful."

With her here, it saves a lot of effort to move stones, isn't it amazing?

After several fields were opened in the mountains, Tang Qingshu couldn't wait to plant corn in the fields.

Wen Shan received Wuying's letter from Flying Pigeon, saying that he had delivered rice worth 4000 taels to Xiao Yishui, and was already on his way back. He estimated that he would return to Qingshui Village in less than seven days.

It will take several days for Fei Ge to send the letter, and when Fei Ge sends the letter, it is estimated that Wu Ying will arrive at Wen's house soon.

Wen Shan told Tang Qingshu about it.

Ah Li who was at the side heard this, patted his chest and said, "Master, madam, let me do such trivial things as picking up people, and I'll bring them back to you."

"Do you know the way?"

If the river to Qingshui Village hadn't been walked a lot, Wen Shan probably wouldn't have remembered it, but Ah Li knew the way after riding it once?
"I know it. Ma'am, I have a very good memory. No matter what I have seen, I can never forget it. I can remember how to row that river." A Li said, patted his chest.

Wen Shan hesitated.

There are many forks in that river, turning left and right, and the surrounding environment is similar. If you don't walk often, you will easily get lost.

"A Li, do you really know the way?"

"Madam, don't worry, I will definitely bring that person named Wuying back."

Ah Li was so confident, Wen Shan didn't want to hurt her, so he asked her to bring Wuying back.

Before leaving, she took some eggs, two chickens and ducks, some dried squid and sea fish, and asked her to take them to Mother Wen.

Sending Ah away to the river, watching her get farther and farther away with the bamboo raft, Wen Shan had no choice but to put away the uneasiness in his heart, and turned back.

On the way back, I came to the Tang family.

Gao Zhaoju was doing laundry outside, and their home was finally built before the Chinese New Year. Although it was just an ordinary brick house, it was much better than before.

Wen Shan was not in a hurry to go back, he hugged Tang Yibao and went to help Gao Zhaoju with the laundry.

Seeing her help, Gao Zhaoju was stunned for a moment, and said anxiously: "Shan Niang, I can wash these clothes by myself, and you take a treasure and rest aside."

She said again: "You don't need to wash the clothes at home, but you still come to help me do the laundry. Doesn't it make me feel sorry?"

"Sister-in-law, what's the relationship between us? It's just a few clothes. I'll wash them for you. Go to my place to play as soon as you finish washing."

Tang Yitian and Tang Yishun are now studying with Liu Ankang. After breakfast, they will go to Liu Ankang's house to study.

Tang Linyu has been hunting diligently during this time, and now the land where the house is built was bought, but it also cost a lot of money.

In order to live a better life at home, he has always been diligent.

The older ones went hunting, the younger ones went to study, and there was only Gao Zhaoju left at home.

Gao Zhaoju smiled and replied, "Okay."

The two started to wash the clothes together, seeing this, Tang Yibao reached out to hold a small corner of the clothes, and frustrated following Wen Shan and the others' movements.

Wen Shan and Gao Zhaoju pursed their lips and laughed.

Gao Zhaoju said: "One day when I was as big as Yibao, he also helped me wash clothes like this."

"Yibao spends a lot of time with Tiantian, and it's a good habit that he has learned for a day."

"Where is it?" Gao Zhaoju didn't believe it. "Nowadays, children of this age love to imitate, and they follow what adults do. Now after studying with Mr. Liu for a day, they have more ideas in doing things. They are living day by day. , Lian Yishun followed suit by saying something about the moonlight in front of the bed."

Speaking of the two children's study, Gao Zhaoju smiled happily.

Wen Shan also said: "Although Mr. Liu is young, he teaches very well. Jun'er only studied with Mr. Liu for a day, and then he came back and told me that what Mr. Liu taught is much easier to understand than what Mr. Liu taught before. , but also esoteric."

Gao Zhaoju nodded: "It's hard for Mr. Liu. The children he teaches are of different ages, and he can cover everything. Yishun is only two years old, and Mr. Liu can teach him some extra knowledge. Now, Yishun will go to Mr. Liu to compare him for a day. Work hard."

Now there are six children in the mountain, Tang Yishun, Tang Yishun, Liu Rumo, Liu Zhuyang, Wen Jun, and Lu Jian.

Liu Rumo, Liu Zhuyang, and Wen Jun are about the same age, and the three of them teach the same things, but Tang Yitian and Lu Jian can't keep up with what they are learning, not to mention Tang Yishun, who is almost three years old. , I can only write one, two, three, and I don’t know how to write any complicated words.

But Liu Ankang still taught these children very well.

Wen Shan looked at Tang Yibao, who was having fun playing in the water, and said, "It would be great if Yibao can reconcile with Yishun. He is clinging to me now, and I won't let him go far."

"Yibao is still young, and now is the clinging stage. Wait for him to grow up for another six months, and then it will be difficult for him to cling to you."

Wen Shan sighed: "It's best not to cling to me, Qing Shu and I haven't consummated our marriage yet."

Hearing this, Gao Zhaoju was stunned for a moment, then covered his mouth and snickered, feeling a little gloating.

The laundry is finally done.

Gao Zhaoju stood up, but his eyes suddenly went dark, and he couldn't stand firmly.

Wen Shan was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and worriedly asked: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

"Maybe I'm a little anemic. When I stand up, my eyes get dark, so I'll just slow down."

"Go to my house later and eat some red dates or something. I'll ask Qiu Liu to make you some blood-enriching food."

"I'm going to trouble you again." Gao Zhaoju apologized.

Wen Shan: "We're all a family, why are you so polite?"

After drying all the clothes, the three came to Wen Shan's house.

Wen Shan asked Qiu Liu to make some soup with red dates and lotus seeds. After Gao Zhaoju ate it, he chatted with Wen Shan for a while, his eyelids closed unconsciously, and he fell asleep.

Wen Shan didn't bother Gao Zhaoju.

All the housework in the Tang family was done by Gao Zhaoju, maybe she was tired and fell asleep while chatting.

Wen Shan asked A Li to carry Gao Zhaoju into the guest room to rest, while she went to the kitchen to prepare delicious food for everyone.

When the meals are ready, the school will end.

Those who opened up wasteland and cultivated fields also returned.

After everyone had eaten, after a small lunch break, they each went to do their own work.

Wen Shan hugged Tang Yibao who had just woken up, and after teasing Tang Yibao, he felt bored.

Ever since the family house was built and there were servants, Wen Shan's life was too idle.

Gao Zhaoju also felt bored, Wen Shan proposed to go and see the children when they were studying.

Gao Zhaoju asked, "Will this disturb Mr. Liu teaching the children to read?"

"We just look out the window and don't go in."

That's a good idea.

Gao Zhaoju agreed, and the two took Tang Yibao to Liu Ankang's side.

Came to Liu Ankang's house, Mrs. Fu was sewing clothes, saw Wen Shan and the others coming, and asked: "Shan Niang, Zhao Ju, why do you have time to come and play today?"

"Let's come over to watch the children study, and leave after just one glance. Mrs. Liu, if you are alone at home, why not go to our place to play, we are also close." Wen Shan said.

Mrs. Fu has a good personality, gentle and generous, and has no prejudice against gentleness and cleverness.

Although Mrs. Fu asked them to call her by her first name, Wen Shan didn't dare to be too rude and call her Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu said: "Then I will go to your side to chat more in the future, so don't find me annoying."

"No, no." Wen Shan said with a smile.

As soon as they talked here, the sound of children reading came from the room.

Fu Shi said: "The children are studying, if you want to read, go and have a look."

Wen Shan nodded, and entered the back room with Gao Zhaoju.

The two entered the school, and the children were sitting upright on the table listening to books.

Even the youngest Tang Yishun followed suit.

Although he could not speak clearly, he replaced the unclear words with babbling, but the way he read the book obediently made Gao Zhaoju's heart warm, and his eyes couldn't help turning red and filled with tears.

Unable to hold back, Dou Da's tears fell from his eyes.

Wen Shan hurriedly asked: "Sister-in-law, what's the matter with you?"

"It's nothing, I'm just happy in my heart. I never thought that the children could still go to private schools. In the past, I thought that the children would be like their father, hunting in the mountains, and live like this for the rest of their lives. But now, they read and read. , Although I don’t know what will happen in the future, but I won’t be too inferior. When I think of this, I feel so happy that I can’t help but want to cry.” Gao Zhaoju said while wiping away tears.

Tang Yibao tilted his head, looking at Gao Zhaoju in puzzlement.

Wen Shan comforts Gao Zhaoju.

Tang Yibao, who was standing beside him with short legs, suddenly let go of his gentle hand and ran into the school.

Liu Ankang was halfway through reading, when he saw Tang Yibao coming in, he asked puzzledly, "Master Yibao, why did you come in?"

Tang Yibao didn't speak, walked to Tang Yishun's table, picked up Tang Yishun's book, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it with his little feet.

I didn't expect Tang Yibao to go in like this, Wen Shan hurried in, before he had time to speak, Wen Jun who was sitting next to Tang Yishun hugged Tang Yibao, and said: "Yibao, don't do this."
