Liu Lifen noticed that Gu Mu and Gu Li were not in the right mood, and then realized that she had said the wrong thing, which aroused their sadness.

So he quickly changed the topic:

"Hey, look at me, why are you saying that you don't have all these things? Gu Xian, how are you and your wife's work going now?"

Gu Xian also knew that Liu Lifen wanted to change the subject, so he responded cooperatively:

"It's not bad. Work is progressing relatively smoothly. Although I haven't been promoted, it's pretty stable."

Liu Lifen's original intention was not to ask about Gu Xian and Gigi Gigi's work situation. Now that she heard him say everything was fine, she didn't continue to ask.

"That's good, work hard and strive for promotion."

Gu Daquan took over the topic promptly:

"Of course it would be better if I could be promoted, but I am also satisfied if I can maintain the current situation. Now, I am stable and stable. I have an iron rice bowl. I don't have to dig in the fields and watch the weather to make a living like us."

Liu Lifen agreed with his words and regretted a little:

Or do you have the foresight to send all your children to school instead of eating glutinous rice bran? Now, three of the five children have earned their jobs, especially Gu Xian, who has become the only college student in the history of our team. The other two are also doing well. "

The more she thought about it, the more she regretted it, and she was so anxious that she slapped her thigh:

"Hey, why didn't your cousin and I insist on persevering back then? Our grandchildren only studied for a few years and barely knew how to read. If we had persevered back then, maybe we could have a few more children in our family now. It’s the man who has the iron rice bowl.”

Gu Daquan comforted her:

"It's okay, auntie, it's not too late to start now. You can also send my nieces and nephews to study. Although the high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination have been cancelled, there is still a big difference between studying and not studying. Nothing else. He said that all recruitment in this city requires examinations. Don’t get the opportunity but fail to seize it because you are uneducated.”

Having said this, he recalled his experiences when he was young:

"Look at the brigade recruiting cadres, whether they are literate or uneducated, they must be literate. And your reading and knowledge are different. I felt this difference when I was in the army. Although the army pays attention to military merit, But those who are literate have more chances of promotion than those who are uneducated.”

Gu Daquan couldn't help but sigh:

"People who have read books have different opinions. If I had been educated, I would have had a better future. The army was like this, let alone other places. So after I had my children, I swore that no matter how hard I worked, I would have a better future. No matter how tired we are, we still have to provide education for the children. As long as they are willing to read, I will support them no matter how hard I try."

Liu Lifen was deeply touched. She patted Gu Daquan's hand:

"Oh, so people should go out and walk more often, so that they can gain knowledge. People who are knowledgeable are always good. If you stay in this three-acre land all the time, you won't be aware of many things."

Gu Daquan understands this truth very well, so he has always encouraged his children to see more of the world, so that they will have a better future in the future.

"Oh, that's why. I don't want my children to have to go through the hardships I've endured; I don't want my children to go through the detours I've gone through."

Gu Daquan shook his head. He felt that the most correct decision he had made in his life was to send several children to study.

Gu Xian also felt deeply that reading can really change your destiny.

Everyone said he was smart, and he received scholarships and subsidies all the way to college. Not only did it not cost money, but it actually made money.

But the world never lacks smart people.

Ever since he went to Kyoto to attend university and met all kinds of outstanding people, he became even more convinced of this idea.

He is indeed a genius, he has been smart since he was a child. But there are too many geniuses in this world.

The problem is that they work hard and have a good family background.

Without his father's persistence and the opportunity to learn, he would have been unable to do anything even if he tried hard.

In the end, you may end up doing nothing all your life.

Talent is important, but training is even more important.

How many smart people in this world end up lost to everyone just because they lack an opportunity.

Therefore, he has always paid great attention to his daughter's education. This is also thanks to the sudden appearance of the system, which made Gu Ning's starting point much higher than others from the beginning.

They also studied for a whole day, and with systematic help, Gu Ning only spent an hour.

And the system can provide better educational resources than anyone else in this era.

As a father, Gu Xian is of course happy.

Although he prefers his daughter to be happy, he would certainly be happier if he could achieve something.

A person's thoughts and cognition are really important.

Gu Xian has always believed that a person cannot achieve anything beyond his own knowledge.

When I studied history in the past, I found that most of the books in the past were not in circulation.

Books written by wealthy families are not allowed to be circulated to outsiders.

When they had to flee for their lives due to war, they would rather give up their money and take away their books.

This is enough to illustrate the importance of knowledge.

Knowledge is the foundation of the family. Isn't it like this now? Anyone with some knowledge attaches great importance to the education of future generations.

Education is the greatest investment.

He believed that not only him, but several brothers and sisters should also feel it deeply.

So they sent their children to study even if they had to pay for it themselves.

Just as Gu Xian was thinking about this, he heard Gu Daquan speak again:

"In fact, people in the brigade have always felt that instead of spending so much money on their children's education, it is better to keep food and drink for themselves. They feel that their efforts may not be rewarded, because not everyone can be admitted to a technical secondary school and assigned a job."

Speaking of this, Gu Daquan became worried:

"In the past, it was because of my persuasion and the living examples of my children that they became better and would consider sending their children to school. Now that the high school entrance examination has been cancelled, the brigade has slowly returned to its previous thinking."

Liu Lifen also knows the current trend of the school. There are many parents who do not plan to let their children continue studying, but she can also understand the thoughts of these parents.

"Oh, I'm still poor. After all, the tuition is not cheap. Now that the high school entrance examination has been cancelled, I won't be able to earn a living after studying. In the end, I have to go back to farming."

Gu Daquan didn't know the reason, but he still felt that the children in the brigade needed to study, so he recently thought of a way and is still thinking about how to implement it.

"Auntie, I understand everyone. So I thought, didn't we have a few educated youths in our brigade? Those educated youths have a very high level of education. It's a pity that they have been farming. And they don't farm well. I'm wondering. Well, why not set up a primary school in the brigade and let them become teachers and teach the children in the brigade to read."

Liu Lifen was shocked by his idea, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt it was feasible:

"The idea you mentioned is good, but how to calculate the salary of this educated youth, we can't let him work for nothing. If he is given too much, the people in the team will definitely have objections."
