Chapter 14

Old Zhou tou glanced at his daughter and asked, "what are you doing in the county?"

Man Bao can't say that he sells sugar, because the family has always guessed that her sugar was given by Mr. Zhuang or the students in the school. She's afraid they will mention it when they go to the teacher tomorrow.

So I can only find another excuse, "I'm going to have a long experience."

Zhou Erlang said, "you are a little baby. What knowledge do you want to grow up? Wait until you grow up."

But when she grows up, the family will not be short of money, and one day today, manbao still has a great harvest. She thinks she needs to verify her summary.

So she insisted, "no, I'll go the day after tomorrow, and my five brothers and six brothers will also go. Let them take me without worrying about my big brother and two brothers."

Old Zhou's head stared with dignity.

Will man Bao be afraid of him?

Of course not. She slipped directly from Zhou Dalang's leg to the ground, jumped up and hugged old Zhou tou's arm, pestering him like twisting Mahua, "Dad, Dad, just promise me."

Seeing that he was indifferent, man Bao beat his shoulder with a small fist. "Dad, I'll buy you sugar, and you promise me."

Will old Zhou tou be bought by sugar?

He's not a child.

But, "where did you get the money?"

"I'll make it, Dad. If you let me go to the county, I can make money." Man Bao has pounded his left shoulder to his right shoulder for his promise.

Zhou Dalang couldn't help laughing and interceded for her, "Dad, otherwise let her go. Just the day after tomorrow, in addition to food, he had to bring eggs. The second son came back with a lot of eggs. This thing can't be put on the cart. He has to carry it on his back."

Zhou Erlang thought, "Yaomei seems to have never been to the county. Since Lao Wu and Lao Liu are also going, I want to take some dustpans and baskets. The price in the county is a little higher than that in the market. Maybe I can earn a sum."

Lao Zhou tou doesn't speak now.

Man Bao beat his shoulder harder and harder. "Dad, just promise, promise."

From the left ear to the right ear, Lao Zhou was very noisy by her. He waved and said, "all right, all right, just go. Your eldest brother, they have to go out before dawn. Can you get up?"

"Get up, I get up early!"

If you can't get up, we won't call you. Don't cry if you can't go

Man Bao is full of confidence, "I will get up."

Then he told the system in his heart, "Koko, you must wake me up the day after tomorrow, you know?"

Koko didn't expect to have the function of a part-time alarm clock, but it also wanted to go out and see the world, so he nodded.

Qian has already given off the task of making clothes and shoes. The clothes made by farmers are not so exquisite. They can be sewn after cutting. As long as the stitches are fine and there is no problem.

The best tailor at home is his third sister-in-law. She took the task and took the cloth to cut. It happened that Mr. Zhuang's body size was similar to that of Zhou Erlang. Just cut according to Zhou Erlang's body size.

In order to do well the next day, he didn't have to do anything in the afternoon. He just had to cut clothes and mend them. Qian was rare to be generous. After dark, he lit an oil lamp for them.

But it's not much worse. I finished the clothes soon.

Qian is responsible for making shoes, and the soles are ready-made. He also uses the soles for Zhou Erlang, because he often walks. Feng's soles are specially thick, which is very comfortable to step on.

The upper is made of specially bought cotton cloth, which is much better than the native cloth made by their family.

The next day, old Zhou tou and his two sons turned out their best clothes, washed their faces, and asked Xiao Qian to dig his daughter out of bed and get ready to go to the teacher.

Man Bao peeled sugar for a long time last night, turned over, pouted his ass and didn't want to get up.

Seeing that she always drilled into the quilt, Xiao Qian took her coat, lifted the quilt, patted her little ass and said, "aunt, it will be late if you don't get up again. You have to be good today."

Hold her, help her put on her clothes, hold her with her eyes closed to the chair, and twist a towel to wipe her face.

The water was warm, but man Bao was inspired and barely woke up.

Today, it was Feng's turn to cook. She brought a bowl of egg water from the kitchen, put it on the table and said, "aunt, remember to drink egg water before you go."

As soon as the sun came out, Lao Zhou took his two sons and man Bao to school.

Mr. Zhuang knew that man Bao would come to visit the teacher today. He got up early in the morning and was boxing in the yard at this time.

When Lao Zhou saw Mr. Zhuang, his back turned subconsciously. He was always in awe of scholars.

Mr. Zhuang smiled, "is uncle Zhou here? Come inside, please. "

"Yes, Mr. Zhuang first." Lao Zhou bowed his head and asked Mr. Zhuang to come in first.

Man Bao was very familiar with Mr. Zhuang. He helped Mr. Zhuang to sit down in the study first, and then helped her father. He looked around and saw a stove burning in a familiar place. She was very considerate to bring them water.

Zhou Dalang and Zhou Erlang hurriedly took over. Man Bao hasn't done these things at home. What if it's hot?

Mr. Zhuang was very satisfied. He touched his beard and old Zhou's head and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, you have a good daughter. I have never seen a more clever child than this."

"That's also what Mr. taught well." old Zhou tou always knew about man Bao's behavior of stealing school on the window. At the beginning, he was distressed, but after that, he could only bear the pain and let his daughter steal school as much as possible.

Because he knows that the greater his ability, the better he can live.

As long as Mr. Zhuang doesn't catch up with manbao, he won't restrain his children.

Therefore, for Mr. Zhuang, old Zhou tou has always been awed and grateful, and his back is more bent.

Mr. Zhuang said with a smile: "this child is good. She is not only smart, but also filial. She knows to clean the yard for me and read about her parents and family. It can be seen that the father-in-law has a good family style. I decided to take the child as an apprentice, but I can only take him with me and teach him. I have to ask Master Bai about entering the school. "

After all, master Bai opened the school and invited him.

Old Zhou's head was refreshed and immediately said, "in fact, it's enough to study with your husband. It doesn't matter if you don't enter the school."

Old Zhou was afraid that man Baojin would be bound up for repair when he entered the school. He blushed and said, "Sir, I'm poor“

Old Zhou tou hesitated, but Mr. Zhuang understood. He smiled and said, "don't worry, sir. Since I want to accept man Bao as a disciple, I just treat her as my own child. Naturally, I won't accept any bundle repair."

After a pause, he said, "I also know that your family has difficulties, and man Bao is still young. She doesn't have to buy anything for her. In the future, she can read and write textbooks here."

In fact, before the Zhou family came, he was not sure whether the Zhou family would like man Bao to worship him as a teacher. Now the Zhou family came, Mr. Zhuang couldn't help but sigh that the Zhou family really loved man Bao.
