After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

Bai's mother is a mother who respects her children.

She did not use her identity as a mother to reveal Bai Qingyun's secrets without permission.

Even if the other person is your elder, the father you once depended on.

It is much better than those parents who like to make fun of their children by sharing their secrets.

However, faced with Jiang's father's kindness, Bai's mother couldn't just refuse it, but explained the situation of the other children in the family one by one.

"Xiao Yan is my adopted daughter. She is very close to my youngest son. Now she has learned martial arts from Madam Su. The martial arts master in my family often praises her talent in martial arts as being as good as that of the eldest son."

Bai's mother held her forehead helplessly and said, "I don't know why this child has been so focused when studying. His brothers often teach him, but nine out of ten times he falls asleep as soon as he picks up the pen."

"It's only when the youngest child takes care of her that she can still sit in front of the desk properly, but... it can only last for an incense stick of time at most."

Bai's mother herself was also helpless. She grew up in the backyard, and the widest world she had ever seen in her memory of growing up was her father's outer yard.

Even walking around Kyoto city is rare.

The environment she grew up in has shaped her current quiet personality. She is unwilling to show up in public, but instead enjoys dealing with embroidery and books.

If she were asked to sit at home with a needle in her hand for a whole day, she would never get tired of it. However, if she had to go out with Grandma Bai to interact with neighbors, although she said she was willing, she still wanted to escape in her heart.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with this kind of personality. Being quiet actually made her more stable.

But my two daughters have different personalities from me. They both like to wield swords and guns.

Sometimes, I really have to sigh at the influence of being a father!

Jiang's father also liked the gentleness of Bai's mother, because all the members of their family were like that. Even Jiang's mother liked to read a book all day.

At that time, the most leisurely life for the family of three was to boil a pot of tea in the courtyard, and the family would sit around the tea stove reading and practicing calligraphy.

If we say that 30% of Bai's mother's talent for studying was determined by fate, 20% was the influence of her parents, and the remaining 50% was the result of her own unremitting efforts in writing.

But this time, he unexpectedly said, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with liking martial arts. Martial arts don't just mean fighting and killing. It's also good for women to strengthen their bodies."

Then he thought of something, frowned and said, "Even though I don't like reading, I still have to learn some words and understand some principles, so that I won't be easily deceived when I grow up."

Everyone understood this principle, but the Bai family had no good solution. Only Bai Qingyun would occasionally help her learn a few words when he had free time.

Others wanted to teach, but some people really get sleepy when they touch books, and it is not easy to overcome this.

Father Jiang asked again: "According to you, all the children in the family should be sent to school?"

Bai's mother nodded: "Yes, Shu'er is calm and steady. He followed Butler Xie to do business all over the country before. He is knowledgeable and has some basic knowledge. However, he learned it in a scattered way and lacks systematic learning."

"Yuer used to help his parents with farm work in the village. It was only after he became their apprentice that he began to be taught by the eldest brother. The child is hardworking and is now beginning to learn."

"After discussing it with our family, we decided that we could afford to send our children to private schools. As for other families in the village, the village chief will also visit them to do the work."

"When a private school is opened, it should be different from the old schools. Boys and girls should be mixed together for enlightenment."

"In addition, Bai Yi will also go to the private school to teach the children some basic martial arts, and they can also train their own physical fitness. If there are those who have a talent for martial arts, they can take individual lessons with the eldest brother and the others."

Bai's mother knew the purpose of this trip, so she diligently introduced some special circumstances of the private school and let Jiang's father be mentally prepared.

"As for other monthly benefits, etc., let the village chief come to discuss it with you in detail when the time comes!"

Jiang's father naturally agreed. He was not the kind of pedantic person who would forbid girls from learning to read.

Even if he knew this was the best way to get closer to his daughter, he would not give up this opportunity easily.

Without caring about any special circumstances, he just nodded and agreed, and would make detailed arrangements after the private school opened.

The three members of the Bai family did not expect to stay here for so long today. They had originally planned to send the gifts out, ask for opinions, and go back after getting the answers.

Unexpectedly, the conversation lasted until noon without him noticing. Bai Qingyun couldn't help but sigh again, Father Jiang was indeed an official. When they were chatting, time passed quietly and silently.

Seeing that it was getting late, Mr. and Mrs. Bai made a gesture to get up and say goodbye.

Unexpectedly, Jiang's father spoke first: "It's getting late. It's a rare visit for you. Just have dinner at home before leaving!"

He looked at Bai's mother with hope in his eyes, and his heart was filled with anticipation of having dinner with his daughter.

If you look closely, you will find that hope is also filled with a sense of brokenness.

This shows how much he is afraid that Bai's mother will refuse.

In fact, Bai's mother was going to refuse.

The reason why she could calm down and talk so much to Father Jiang was because the children at home would soon be handed over to him for teaching.

Tell him more about the children's situation so that he can have a better idea before he starts teaching.

It would be best to prepare lessons carefully according to the children's situation, so that it would not be in vain for her to say so much here today.

But now, she still can't sit at the same table with Jiang's father and mother to eat.

It is said that one becomes homesick when close to home, but is it the hometown that one is afraid of, or the relatives in the hometown?

Bai's mother was also afraid that the memories of the past would suddenly flood back into her mind while she was eating and make her feel confused.

It’s great like this now!

She met Jiang's father's eyes full of broken hope. Although she still felt a little reluctant in her heart, she still refused.

"I won't bother you any more. It's a rare opportunity for me to come to the capital today, and I want to take my youngest son for a walk."

Although the rejection was expected, it was still a bit unbelievable when I heard it.

Bai's mother looked at Jiang's father's shaky appearance, and finally added with some reluctance: "This is a magical medicine that our family got by chance. The effect is very strong. Don't swallow it directly."

"Crush it and mix it in water. Remember to share it with the old lady. I don't know if it can cure the old lady's illness, but it will not harm the body after drinking it."

Bai Qingyun watched Bai's mother hesitate for a long time, and finally took out a small wooden box from his long sleeves.

Only a corner of the wooden box was exposed, and Bai Qingyun recognized that it was the box she gave to her mother to contain the Lingquan Pill.

The mahogany box was carved with auspicious clouds. It was the first batch of wooden boxes for storing elixirs that Bai Qingyun specifically instructed Lu Ban to make.

The wooden box is small and easy to carry around.

Just looking at the carving craftsmanship, you can tell that it is of great value, which further highlights the preciousness of the elixir inside.
