Village Flowers and Female Scholars
Chapter 76
Zhuang Shinan proposed to let Zhuang Wan choose, if she wanted to continue writing the storybook, she could not sign her name, or she would sell the house in the city to Po Yu to see a doctor. Zhuang Wan chose to continue writing the storybook without hesitation. Speaking of writing a storybook is her hobby and freedom, and more importantly, she wants to write down all Xie Yan's dreams one by one. This is also the result of the two of them working together, which is incomparable to anything else.
Seeing her, Zhuang Shinan has made up his mind. Although he feels helpless, he can't say what he said before going back on his word. What's more, if he really sells the house in the city, all his family members return to Shangyan Village, and he is still working in the city. provide for the family.
On the other side, Mrs. Li and her two sons finally cleaned up the room next door, but Zhuang Tianrui kept crying tired and hungry.
Mrs. Li hadn't worked like this for a long time, so she still wanted to cook, so she hinted to her son to ask Granny Yu to cook.
Granny Yu was mending her pair of cloth shoes under the eaves when she heard her second grandson call, "Grandma, I'm hungry, when are you going to cook?"
Yu Po rubbed her eyes and said, "Didn't your father say that he came back to the village to honor me for the past two months? Why did you come to the village to let me serve your parents?"
Zhuang Tianrui is considered an adult at any rate. Hearing Yu Po's rhetorical question at this time, his face became hot immediately, his eyes turned and he said: "Today, my mother, my brother and I are tired of cleaning the room, and my sister-in-law is pregnant again. It's not convenient, or would you ask your cousin to cook for us?"
"Wan'er can't cook. I used to cook for her. Now that I'm old, it's better to cook for two. I can't cook for five or six of you. You can ask your father." Let's see how dinner is arranged."
Zhuang Tianrui didn't expect his grandmother to be so protective of his cousin, and said a little unhappy: "Grandma, my cousin is going to get married in the future, you have to let her learn to do some housework, otherwise she won't do much after she gets married. It's embarrassing, and my husband's family won't give me any good looks, besides, when you get old, you won't have us grandsons honoring you, and she won't know where she will marry."
As soon as Granny Yu heard it, she was so angry that she threw her shoes on the ground, grabbed Zhuang Tianrui's ears and dragged her to Zhuang Shinan.
Zhuang Shinan had just digested Zhuang Wan's writing of the storybook, and was sitting in the hall drinking tea and pressing the fire, when he saw his mother dragging his youngest son over, he quickly stood up and asked, "Mother, why did Tianrui mess with you again?" , you tell me, I will teach him a lesson!"
"Zhuang Tianrui, tell your father what you said to me just now." Granny Yu twisted Zhuang Tianrui's ear.
Even though Zhuang Tianrui was usually unreliable, he tremblingly repeated what he said just now under his father's eagle eyes, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhuang Wan's remarks.
After hearing this, Zhuang Shinan frowned, and said to Po Yu with some flattery, "Mother, Ruier's speech is a bit bad, but when the girl is married, you can't keep Waner forever, she is almost [-] this year. If you stay here, you will be an old girl, and it is right for her to learn how to do something."
"Don't say that Wan'er doesn't want to marry yet, even if she does, why can't she marry a good family and become a young mistress? How can she work in the fields and cook to serve the family?"
"Mother, do you think that those big families are so easy to get along with? Three wives and four concubines in the family are intriguing, and Wan'er is so straightforward. If you go to that kind of family, you may be eaten to the bone. It's better to find an honest family to settle down." Live in peace."
"Boss, boss, why do I feel that you dragged your family back this time to annoy me? Wan'er and I are living a relaxed and happy life. You have made a fuss at home when you came back. You might as well go back and forget about it, I don't need you to come back to visit me." Po Yu only felt that the family was very upset when they came back.
When Zhuang Shinan heard his mother's words, a sad expression appeared on his face.
After all, she is her own raised son. Seeing his appearance, Yu Po finally calmed down and sighed: "Forget it, you can stay as long as you want, Wan'er has been so used to me all these years that I can't even cook." It’s cooked, but it’s exhausting and tiring for her to copy and write scripts every day. You can take care of these trivial matters at home, and don’t try to hold her back. Let her go wherever she wants. I won't say no to it."
Zhuang Shinan helplessly called his mother, and he accepted it.
Zhuang Wan was standing outside the hall, and naturally heard the conversation of several people, and returned to the room with a blank expression.
Zhuang Tianlei cooked the dinner. Compared with his mother who is lazy and his younger brother knows nothing, he is a more practical man. Although he has not been with Zhuang Wan since he was a child, the brother and sister get along well on weekdays, unlike the younger brother. When Zhuang Tianrui was together, he felt tense.
Zhuang Wan was not shy when eating, if it wasn't for Zhuang Shinan's presence, she might not have stayed at home for dinner, even if Li Shi's complexion was not very good, she would still eat as if she didn't see it.
Until the next morning, Zhuang Wan got up early and went out with a large stack of manuscripts. Li Shi and Zhuang Tianrui were warned by Zhuang Shinan yesterday, and they didn't dare to stop them, but their expressions were not so good.
After Zhuang Wan went out, she went straight to Xie's house. Xie Yuangu didn't follow Cao E to the restaurant. When she saw her coming, she rushed up to her and said, "Sister Wanwan, I'll help you get the books."
Zhuang Wan looked at his attentive face, smiled, and gently placed the manuscript on his two outstretched hands.
"Hey, Sister Wanwan, some pages of the manuscript are torn."
"I accidentally tore it off, Gu'er has to take care not to be blown away by the wind."
Xie Yuangu hurriedly took the book to Xie Yan's room as if he had received a major task, while Zhuang Wan turned and went to the kitchen.
Xie Yan was busy baking some pancakes for breakfast on the stove, and when she saw Zhuang Wan coming in, she didn't ask her why she came back so early, now that her uncle is here, looking at her aunt's appearance, I'm afraid it's not a good sight Yes, it's normal that this person doesn't want to stay at home. He smiled and said, "Fortunately, I came in time, and I can add some noodles, otherwise I won't have your share."
The corner of Zhuang Wan's mouth curled up, she pulled a stool and sat down, and added a handful of firewood to the stove.
While eating pancakes, Xie Yuangu sat next to Zhuang Wan, and brought her a bowl of water with a courteous expression.
Seeing this, Xie Yan smiled and said: "Yesterday, the two little brothers Wen Jun and Wen Cong of Uncle Cai's family came back from the school in the county. A group of children circled around the two brothers. Looking at their school clothes, they thought they were elegant and beautiful, and they were very envious. , When I came back, I told him that if he followed Sister Wanwan well, maybe Sister Wanwan would also teach him to read, but no, he will circle around you as soon as you come."
The little boy sat on the chair coyly, but looked at Zhuang Wan with anticipation in his eyes.
Hearing this, Zhuang Wan reached out and touched his little head, then turned to Xie Yan and said, "Jin Niang, let's go find Uncle Cai after dinner, the private school has to open after such a long delay."
Xie Yan looked at her suspiciously: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Zhuang Wan frowned lightly and said: "There are many people in the family, so if the private school has classes during the day, it would be quieter to go to the private school for class."
"Would you like to come to my house for a few days?"
Knowing her good intentions, Zhuang Wan shook her head and said: "The private school was originally scheduled to reopen, it's just earlier, if I don't go to teach, uncle will be unhappy seeing me running out every day, why not Find something to do, and then come to play with you in your spare time, then they won't be able to say anything."
"Sure, but if Uncle Cai knows the good news, he will be so happy. Several families in the village have been urging him to persuade you, and he is almost dying of worry."
Zhuang Wan smiled, remembering the dispute with the uncle yesterday: "Uncle acquiesced in the matter of me writing the storybook, but he didn't let me sign it, and he also said that no one should know that I wrote the storybook. Now the mimeograph machine is ready. , if I really want to do it, then maybe I will write the manuscript, and you will have to do other early things."
When Xie Yan heard this, his eyes were thoughtful: "Your uncle is really strange, but it's not a big deal, it's not the same between you and me."
The two were puzzled by their attitude towards their uncle, but they couldn't think of any answer for the time being, so they had to skip this question. Xie Yan was still thinking about the mimeograph machine he had just finished. They had to buy some good paper, especially the oil paper used for engraving, which had to be of the highest quality, because this kind of paper was very expensive, and they didn't buy much in the town before.
Then he told Zhuang Wan what was in his heart.
"Let's go to the city tomorrow, I'll go with you," Zhuang Wan thought for a while and then said, "Ask your mother and Gu'er if they want to bring something, forget it, why don't you ask them if they want to go with us? It's going to the town, let's go to the county together this time."
Hearing her words, Xie Yan felt even more joyful in her heart. This person is cold, but he always thinks of things so thoughtfully. He put his arms around her waist, half coquettishly and half teasingly: "My mother hasn't become your mother yet, she's just so thoughtful." arrive?"
Zhuang Wan's face turned red immediately, but she still pretended to be calm and said: "Cough...your mother and my mother are good to you, I mean...cough my mother will definitely let you know that we are going to the city Let's pick up Gu'er and go with them."
"You're talking nonsense, you might as well just say Ai Wu Ji Wu De." Xie Yan suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth.
Zhuang Wan pursed her lips tightly and remained silent.
Xie Yan knew that this person was shy, so she didn't tease her anymore. Zhuang Wan didn't want to go back right now, so she went directly to Xie's house and started trying to use a stylus to write half of the story that she had written in the past few days on oiled paper.
Holding the pen was a bit awkward at first, but it gradually became smoother. By the time she reached the third page, she was already writing faster than usual with a brush.
Xie Yan put the oil paper she had written into the interlayer of the mimeograph machine, and started rolling after ink was applied to the roller.
Seeing this, Zhuang Wan also stopped the pen in her hand, and waited nervously for the result.
During this period of time, Xie Yan's experiment was just to try and write a few lines of words on oiled paper. It is the first time that the page is full of words now.
When the cover on the mimeograph machine was opened, what came into view was a page of white paper filled with fonts. The handwriting was neat and fresh, and the ink was not smudged or blurred at all. The two looked at each other and saw All are happy.
"Wanwan, this oiled paper can be better. I'll have a look in the city tomorrow. Maybe there's even better paper."
"There are more good papers in the county than in the town, and there are even better ones in Fucheng. I have been to Fucheng when I took the rural examination, and I have seen better paper."
Xie Yan smiled when she heard this: "Right now, this paper is barely usable, but it would be great if there is a better quality one. Don't worry, we will go to Fucheng in the future."
Seeing the little girl's smug look, Zhuang Wan couldn't help but frown.
The author has something to say: go to the city tomorrow.
