Now that the county has decided to open an academy, He Gong pays close attention to Anian and Alie's homework, and is no longer the lax state of letting cattle graze in the past.
Anyone who fails to complete his homework will be slapped with a ruler.
He Lie complained, "My buttocks are swollen from being spanked."
I heard that all the teachers in the school were slappers, but his father spanked his buttocks.
He Lie was not afraid of being spanked.
He just felt that it was a bit embarrassing to save face.
As he gets older, He Lie has reached the age where he knows how to save face.
There was no point in complaining.
Shen showed him his butt, gave him some medicine, and gave him a few words of comfort.
Dear dad, I won’t break it, so I’ll take two hits and two hits.
If he could work harder after being hit twice, Mr.
Shen wouldn't have any objection at all.
Shen also compared the example of Shen Su and said to He Lie, "Your father is soft-hearted.
You don't know how your grandpa used to be beaten like your father with such a thick stick."
Shen said.
Shi also gestured to his son about the thickness of the stick and said, "Your life is good.
Your father is reluctant to use a big stick with you, so just be content."
After comparing his uncle's miserable life back then, He Lie found psychological comfort.
In fact, apart from the fact that he was a little embarrassed about his face, he didn't feel anything.
The main reason is that these days are by no means an era when it was illegal to hit children in later generations.
Nowadays, it would be rare for a boy to not be beaten.
Since the boys in the family were working hard, He Zijin was afraid that their nutrition would not keep up, so he asked Mrs.
Zhou to go to the butcher shop every day to buy two pieces of fresh pig brains and stew them specially for them to eat.
Mrs.
He also said, "When the new academy opens next year, if you all get admitted to study, our family will go to Furong House for a meal."
He Gong corrected, "Mom, the academy cannot be said to be open, it must be admitted."
Mrs.
He curled her lips and said, "That's not the same thing."
He Lie asked, "Grandma, does that mean we can order whatever we want to eat at Furong Tower?"
He Lao Niang is rich and wealthy, "this is natural" He Lie said, "Then I want to eat Furonglou's big elbow.
I heard it's delicious."
"It's done, it's done."
Mrs.
He did not respond to the words of her beloved grandson.
He Gong said, "You should study hard first and then you can pass the exam."
He Lie was full of confidence, "Dad, don't worry.
Brother Anian and I have been studying for several years.
Now we work harder.
If we take the exam together if we are about the same age, we are not necessarily inferior to others."
He Gonggang wanted to say that it was a good thing to have confidence, but it also meant that he was too confident.
However, I have already responded and said, "That's true.
Just study hard.
I don't think there are stupid people in our family."
The grandparents talked for a while, and then He Gong took the two younger ones to the study.
Mrs.

Shen said to Mrs.
He, "The two big pig heads we cooked last night, Mrs.
Zhou said in the morning, the bones were almost crispy.
Our family is small and we can't eat any of them.
I thought, a few days ago, there were so many brothers from the Xin clan.
Take care of her, Sister-in-law Li really loves this one, why not give it to her One of them will be given to Sister-in-law Li to try.
"The weather is getting colder and it's the time to make soy meat.
Shen doesn't raise pigs in the butcher shop now.
She always puts the pigs in the tenant's house at the beginning of the year.
She produces the bran material for raising pigs.
For every five heads raised, one is given to the tenant, and the tenant is happy with it.
In the past two days, the pigs were slaughtered, except for the sauce.
Shen ordered Mrs.
Zhou to braise two pig heads, one for her own consumption and one for favors.
He Lao Niang nodded, "That's right.
Our two families are good, and they are both kind people.
Let's go."
Since Du's death, He Lao Niang no longer cares about that matter.
Moreover, thanks to He Xin's care for the Jubilee Club, He Lao Niang was completely relieved.
Nowadays, she is willing to move the two families together, but she has a higher seniority, so even if she goes there, she has nothing to say to Mrs.
Li.
This shows the benefits of having a daughter-in-law, not to mention that Shen and Li have always had a good relationship, so it is most appropriate for Shen to take the lead.
Mrs.
Shen smiled and said, "Ask the two girls to come with me.
They are old enough and should be visiting the house."
"That's fine."
Mrs.
Shen ordered the third girl, He Zijin, to change her clothes.
After the two of them had changed into decent clothes for a guest, the three ladies were about to go out when someone from the embroidery workshop came to see the third girl.
Mrs.
Shen then said to the third girl, "Then you go to the embroidery workshop first.
Aunt Li will look for you.
Maybe there is something wrong."
She told Cui'er to go with the third girl.
The third girl said, "Xiaofen and I are also with each other.
Auntie also needs to take something with her.
How can we do it without Cui'er accompanying us?"
Mrs.
Shen smiled, "Don't worry, just ask Mrs.
Zhou to give us a ride."
The third girl didn't say anything and took Cui'er and Miss Xia away.
The third girl took Cui'er to the embroidery workshop, and Mr.
Shen took He Zijin to He Xin's house.
He Zijin said on the way, "I wonder why Aunt Li asked the third sister to go there now."
"It can't be a bad thing."

Ms.
Shen smiled, "Seeing as the Chinese New Year is coming soon, the embroidery workshop is the busiest at the moment."
He Zijin said, "Last time I went to the state capital, my third sister and I visited Aunt Li's embroidery workshop.
It was bigger and more luxurious than the embroidery workshop in our county."
Mrs.
Shen nodded, "Aunt Li is also one of the best women in our county."
The He family is a small family, and there are no big rules on weekdays.
Mrs.
Zhou interjected, "I heard that Aunt Li's embroidery workshop even embroidered dragon robes."
Both mother and daughter were surprised, He Zijin said, "No way, if there is such a big event, how could you not have heard of it?"
Mrs.
Zhou was quite proud of herself, "Aunt Li is not that flamboyant.
If it weren't for me, not many people in Bishui County would know about it."
He Zijin's heart suddenly became full of gossip, "Could there be some inside story?"
"No secret, I heard it from the mute woman at the mutton shop."
He Zijin was puzzled that a mute could still spread gossip, so he heard Mrs.
Zhou say, "It's really the dragon robe used by the most popular Sanxi Opera Troupe in our state capital.
It's not ordinary needlework."
He Zijin was in danger of choking Mrs.
Zhou to death.
Mrs.
Zhou recalled that year, "That year, my wife had just given birth to our eldest aunt, and our old lady was still there.
Our county magistrate was so proud that the Sanxi Opera Troupe sang in our county.
It's a three-day show.
Oh, it's so exciting.
Our master even hired a piano player for his troupe."
He Zijin asked, "Is it possible that Aunt Li opened an embroidery workshop so early?"
"It's not easy for her to say that she used to sell groceries and have a stall at the county fair, and then she set up a shop.
In the blink of an eye, she had this family business in the past thirty years."
Mrs.
Zhou sighed.
After listening to Mrs.
Zhou talking, they arrived at He's house.
The boy at the door of He's house quickly stepped forward to take the food box from Mrs.
Zhou's hand.
Mrs.
Shen said, "Go back and prepare lunch first."
Mrs.
Zhou went home.
Mrs.
Shen often comes here, and she knows most of the servants of the He Xin family.
Ever since something happened to Mr.
Du, He Xin did not let his daughter-in-law take care of the family, and directly handed over the family affairs to Mrs.
Li.
The servants of the family saw Mrs.

Shen.
He is more attentive than before.
When they reached the second gate, a mother-in-law took over the food box and took Shen and He Zijin's mother and daughter all the way to the main courtyard.
Mrs.
Li received the letter and stood in front of the door to greet her, "I was just trying to talk to my sister, but she came first.
What did you bring to honor me?"
He Zijin greeted Li, and Li hurriedly helped He Zijin up.
While talking, he personally led the mother and daughter into the house.
The little maid served the tea, and Mr.
Shen took a sip and said, "It's not that good.
Yesterday I made sauced pork.
I braised two pig heads.
I have one at home.
I brought one for my sister-in-law.
Remember My sister-in-law loves this one the most.”
Mr.
Li comes from a small family, and his food preferences are very common.
Li Shi smiled, "You are the only one who remembers me every year."
Shen smiled, "It's not a precious thing."
He Zijin asked, "Mother, isn't Sister Kang here?"
Li smiled, "I had to follow your uncle to the state capital.
Your uncle couldn't handle her, but he just took her with him.
I haven't slept well for two days, and I'm worried about it."
He Zijin smiled, "Just relax, Uncle Xin is a most considerate person."
"As the old saying goes, a son who travels a thousand miles worries his mother, but a mother who travels a thousand miles has nothing to worry about."
Mrs.
Li smiled, "The same goes for your mother when you go to the state capital.
If you don't go there for six or seven days, your mother comes to my place.
I made three trips.”
He Zijin looked at Mrs.
Shen and smiled, "How about she is my mother."
"You little girls, I don't know how you were born, but you are all so sweet-mouthed that you can't help but love me."
Mrs.
Li dismissed the maid in the room, "I have something to discuss with you."
Mrs.
Shen smiled, "Sister-in-law, just tell me what's going on."
Li Shi said, "Zi Jin's chrysanthemums were raised very well.
Does Zi Jin still remember Furongfang?"
"Well, last time at the Chrysanthemum Fighting Festival in Furongfang, a pot of Phoenix Zhenyu came out on top."
"Furongfang is also an old store in our state capital.
His boss knows your uncle and wants to ask you if you want to participate in the Chrysanthemum Fighting Party next year."
He Zijin smiled, "My mother-in-law also knows that I just raise two pots of flowers for my own fun.
This year I just happened to have this opportunity.
Thanks to Uncle Xin, I went to broaden my horizons.
For once, I am satisfied."

Mrs.
Li nodded, she had been running the shop for some years, and she knew a little about the outside world.
She said to He Zijin, "The owner of Furongfang is thinking that if it is cheaper, you will have good flowers in the future, so he can Don't worry about money, Furongfang won't lose you.
To be honest, this is always good.
Flowers are hard to find.
Furongfang is a famous rouge shop.
His family does not rely on the money spent at the chrysanthemum fighting party.
For his family, reputation is much more useful than the money spent in competitions.
It was his family who found out about you.
I know you are not famous for selling chrysanthemums, so I discussed this matter with you through your uncle."
He Zijin thought for a moment, and this was a good idea.
She didn't want to always stand out.
Firstly, things were rare and valuable.
If she produced a large number of them every year, even rare and rare herbs would not be able to be sold at a high price.
Secondly, , these days, it is advantageous for men to become famous as early as possible, but not necessarily for women.
He Zijin is not very willing to become famous.
Nowadays, the method of Furongfang is not bad, and it can make a lot of money.
However, He Zijin still said, "Things like flowers and plants are no better than others.
Whether they are good or not depends on human power and God's will.
It depends on What will happen to the flowers next year?
Otherwise, if you don’t grow good flowers, it will be a waste of money and it will be no fun.”
Li nodded slightly and said in approval, "When you hear this, you know that our Zijin has the right mind."
He Zijin smiled and inquired with Mrs.
Li, "I often hear the name of Furongfang, and I know that his family sells rouge and gouache.
I don't know the details.
If I know more, I might as well tell you.
I also have some knowledge.”
Li Shi smiled, "If your uncle hadn't inquired clearly, he wouldn't have asked me to ask you.
Just don't worry, Furongfang is an old shop that has been around for more than 300 years.
It has also been a time-honored brand for three dynasties.
It is now relied on.
He is from the Zhang family in the state capital.
His family name is Li, and he is also a trustworthy person in business."
He Zijin smiled, "Zhang Family" has only been to the state capital once in her life, and she only knows one Ning family.
Of course, in such a large state capital, it is impossible to have just one prominent family.
"The Zhang family is also a first-class prominent family.
I heard that even if it is not as good as the Ning family now, during the emperor's time, the Zhang family was also a family that produced ministers."
Li said, "By the way, the Hu family in our county is the oldest.
Girl, I’m determined to be Mr.
Zhang.”
After listening to Mrs.
Li's gossip about the Hu family and the Zhang family, it was almost noon, and Shen Shifang took He Zijin to say goodbye and go home.
The third girl didn't come back from lunch, but she sent Cui'er back to say that the third girl was having dinner at the embroidery workshop.
The third girl asked Cui'er to go home and pick her up in the evening.
It wasn't until evening that the third girl brought back a rather shocking news, "Sister Xia, who is in charge of the accounts at the embroidery village, is going to work at the embroidery village in the state capital.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
She is getting old and busy.
Aunt Li knows that I am literate and asked me to learn to take care of things. ” Madam He immediately asked, "How much salary will I give you every month?"
The third girl said, "Two liang."
Mrs.
He slapped her thigh and said, "Done it."
Now the family's conditions are better, and the monthly expenses are only two taels of silver.
The third girl earns two taels a month, which is much more than what she earns from embroidery.
After confirming the salary first, Mrs.
He asked again, "What do you want to do now?"
The third girl said, "It's just the work done by the embroiderers.
Write down how much work each person does and calculate how much they will get."
Mrs.
He asked, "Can you do the arithmetic?"
After taking the money, you have to do things well.
The third girl smiled, "Auntie taught me abacus a long time ago, and sister Zijin also taught me mental arithmetic.
Today I just took over the accounts that Sister Xia was responsible for before.
Sister Xia said I can do it well."
Mental arithmetic is what He Education's little expert Zijin trains every family member.
He Education's little expert Zijin has always insisted that calculations are very helpful to human logic.
In the family, apart from Mrs.
He who was too stupid to learn, even Aunt Yu couldn't learn it.
The one who learned best was not the third girl who was about to switch to accounting work, but Mrs.
Zhou who was in charge of purchasing every day.
It is said that Mrs.
Zhou's mental arithmetic ability is far superior to that of all living beings.
When buying vegetables at the vegetable market, she often thinks that the old vegetable seller who has been selling vegetables for many years has a mental disorder.
The third girl has a new job, and seems to have been directly promoted to management.
It was the season when Shen was killing pigs to make soy meat, so the family celebrated it very much.
He Zijin also showed off his skills by making stir-fried pork intestines, which was directly listed as one of the dishes that cannot be served by Mr.
Shen.
Except for Mr.
Shen, everyone likes it very much.
In He Lie's words, "It smells good and smells good.
It smells good and smells good."
The third girl was free and said to He Zijin, "Sister Zijin, this is the first time I know that such a person exists in the world."
What kind of person
The third girl said, "Sister Xia went to the embroidery village in the state capital to fill the vacancy of a steward Jiang.
Steward Jiang was originally from Furong County and married a scholar.
He didn't want the scholar to be short-lived.
Steward Jiang took his daughter and became a widow.
What if?
Ordinary people, I'm afraid it's a I just spent my whole life guarding my daughter.
Who knew that Manager Jiang had remarried, and he was still a big businessman in the state capital.
Because Manager Jiang was getting married, Aunt Li transferred Sister Xia to come over, so there was a vacancy in our county embroidery shop, so I asked me to fill it for the time being.
On."

He Zijin said, "In this world, men ask women to observe chastity, but which man will keep chastity to women?
Of course, if there is a suitable person, you can remarry."
"This is what we women have to say.
In fact, it is not difficult to remarry.
What is difficult is that someone like Guanshi Jiang can remarry with a decent daughter."
The third girl sighed, "I have not abandoned myself in October.
The second thing is that if you are pregnant with your own flesh and blood, you will be able to marry better.
At least you will not be humiliating yourself as a woman.
If you reach the level of Jiang Guanshi, your life will not be in vain." gd1806102:
