"So with so many children, does it cost money?"
"Food and drink, clothes and shoes, radishes are more delicate for girls, and jewelry and fabrics? Boys eat a lot. Besides, if our family has enough money to get it, then should we let the children study? "
"Reading... reading?" Aunt Rong was shocked, and her whole body was trembling.
She had never thought of this word, a word that people from farmers and mountains would never dare to think of.
Ye Lulu lowered his voice, "Yeah, why not? Mom didn't expect that it's just because there are no other children studying in this village or around here, and there are always few scholars in Yuancheng. But this is all because of the big Most farm families don’t have any money left, but our family has made enough money from business, so why can’t we let our children go to school? They are all about the age of enlightenment.”
Aunt Rong was shocked as if she had been struck by lightning.
"Studying is always good, mother, do you want to do it? As long as it is possible, then we can do it, and there is no need to be afraid because no one around us does it. Our family does business, and no one around us does it, so we also do it , and made money?”
"Mom, don't dare to think about it. As long as we can, we will let the children at home read. If they can read well, even if they pass the exam, it will be a unique honor. Even if they can't read well, the children can also read and count. , it will be easier to find fortifications in the future, and you will not be cheated when you go out. There will be no harm at all."
Aunt Rong's heart was beating like crazy, and her whole body was sluggish. She looked at Ye Lulu and said, "Really, are you really studying?"
"Why not? Buy a paper-and-pencil poetry book and let the children trace it first, and then find a teacher. That's it. Originally, our family ran a stall and had to go up and down the mountain every day. Can't we just take the children with us?"
Aunt Rong couldn't resist it. The word "reading" was sacred and noble. Thinking about it, she felt like she was going to faint.
Ye Lulu saw that she had hit the mark and continued to persuade: "Mom, that's it. You and your sisters-in-law can do well in the original stall business at home. Then I have spare energy, why don't I go out and start another business? Wharf. It’s so big, our two businesses can make money from both sides of the family, isn’t that good?”
What really moved Aunt Rong was the matter of studying, and Ye Lulu was right. Although the family stall was currently making a lot of money, the housekeeper really had too many children.
Even if you earn so much, the money you spend is like running water, and it is difficult to save money.
Thinking about it far away is really not enough.
"And Chi Bei also wants to study." Ye Lulun said another sentence without hesitation.
"Huh?? Xiaoliu also wants to study??!" Aunt Rong didn't know at all and asked in shock.
"Yes, he has already bought the books and has been reading them at home for several days during the winter." Ye Lulun calmly threw Guan Chibei away.
"I asked him to buy the book. Although Chi Bei is a father, he is not very old. If he has the brains to take the scientific examination, then let him take it. If he can't read, he can at least be literate, which is good for us. We will start a business later, and when our three babies grow up, Chibei can also teach them."
"It's always a good thing."
Aunt Rong didn’t know this at all, and she didn’t even know that Xiaoliu was already reading! ! ! She was so shocked at the moment that she couldn't tell whether she was more ecstatic and happy, or surprised and surprised.
"Then, the family doesn't have enough manpower... If you want to start another kind of business, how can you start it..." Aunt Rong said hesitantly and worriedly, but she was already relieved.
