Xiao Chengjin's school did not have a holiday until the day before Xiaonian, and classes would not resume until the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.
Mr. Li accepted Su Ruanruan as his apprentice, but he couldn't let Su Ruanruan study all year round. After all, Su Ruanruan was still young. Children always like to celebrate the New Year, and they also like to run and jump during the New Year, which is lively and lively.
So after thinking about it, Mr. Li decided to let Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin have a holiday on the same day, and then go home to celebrate the New Year together. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, they would come back to continue classes.
Although Su Ruanruan was a little regretful that she could not continue studying, she still listened to Mr. Li's words.
Su Ruanruan understands that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
She couldn't push herself too hard either.
At noon on the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, Su Cangshan and Xiao Yougen came to the county town together. The two of them rented an ox cart. In addition to carrying luggage for Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin, they also had to purchase some new year's goods.
The two families are not said to be rich now, but it is still possible for the family to have a prosperous New Year.
Two grown men and two children walked around the county town with their hands full of things.
The snow in Yinchuan County is obviously not as heavy as where Su Ruoruan and the others used to be. Generally, after it snows for a few days, as long as it is sunny for a few days, the snow will almost melt and it will not affect people's walking.
They swayed all the way back to Yangcheng Village in an ox cart. As soon as they entered the village, they heard the playing and screaming of children.
Su Cangshan looked at Su Ruanruan, "Ruanbao, do you and Jinbao want to go down and play with them?"
Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin shook their heads at the same time, "No, we have to go back to read!"
"Isn't it already a holiday? Why are you still reading?" Su Cangshan asked puzzledly.
The school that Su Laixi and the four of them attended had holidays a few days earlier than Xiao Chengjin.
The four Su Laixi have been staying at home for a few days. Except for the eldest Su Laifu, he also consciously reads books and practices calligraphy. The younger Su Laishou and Su Laixi play with other children in the village all day long. Son, you can't see them at all until dinner time.
So now when Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin said that they were going back to read, Su Cangshan was extremely surprised.
Su Ruanruan patted the small baggage beside her, "Master gave me a book and asked me to memorize it during the vacation. When I go back, I will be tested."
Xiao Chengjin also made the same move and patted the book box next to him, "The teachers in the school also gave me homework, and I have to practice twenty large characters every day."
Su Cangshan and Xiao Yougen were both shocked, "Your husband/master is so strict!"
Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin looked at each other and laughed at the same time, "Master Yan produces great disciples!"
They are not really children, they are just a little tired, but they also understand that this is because the master and husband have relatively high expectations for them. Otherwise, they can just let them go home and play casually, so why give them any homework.
Although Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin did not get out of the car, the children playing in the village still saw them and gathered around them.
Of course, the children gathered around, not because they had a good relationship with Su Ruanruan or Xiao Chengjin, but because they were curious about the things on the oxcart.
Although the New Year is coming, and their respective families have prepared new year's goods, they really can't compare with the Su family and the Xiao family.
