Chapter 227

The two turned their heads to look at each other again, Xie Yunjin took the lead and said, "I'll go out for a while."

Lu Jiao nodded: "Yes, fine."

After saying that, she called Lu Gui who was busy tidying up in the hall and said, "Go out with your brother-in-law."

Lu Jiao was worried that something might happen to Xie Yunjin's leg, and she had to deal with it so that no more accidents would happen.

After listening to Lu Jiao's words, Xie Yunjin's eyes darkened, wondering if Lu Jiao cared about him, or was she afraid that another accident with his leg would hurt her.

Soon he thought about Lu Jiao's determination to reconcile, so Xie Yunjin decided that Lu Jiao was worried that her leg would hurt her if she broke her again.

Xie Yunjin pursed her lips and said, "You don't need to follow, I will pay attention."

After speaking, he strode out, Lu Gui looked at Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao with a strange expression behind him, what happened to these two people? Why do you seem to be at odds, did you quarrel?

Just as Lu Gui was thinking about it, Lu Jiao said, "What are you still doing in a daze? Follow your brother-in-law, don't let anyone hit his leg."

Lu Gui responded and followed, he had to listen to his sister's orders, could he stay if he didn't listen?

Lu Gui followed, Lu Jiao ignored Xie Yunjin, turned around and went out to clean up the vegetable yard.

The vegetables she planted in the vegetable garden are not only growing well, not only the vegetables and eggplants are growing well, but even the tomatoes and cucumbers are growing well.

The tomatoes were slightly red, Lu Jiao picked a few, washed them with water, went to the kitchen and mixed them with sugar, and waited for the four little guys to get up and feed them.

She went to the vegetable garden to pick a few more vegetables, and was going to fry them for dinner.

In a few days, Xie Yunjin is going to tear down the old house and build a new yard. I'm afraid the vegetable yard will not be preserved, so I'd better eat the vegetables in a hurry these days.

Xie Yunjin took Lu Gui to the village chief's house first, and told the village chief that he could not teach the children in the village to read. The village chief was naturally sorry when he heard it, but he heard that Xie Yunjin was going to the county school to guide the children to pass the college entrance examination.

The village chief felt very proud again, nodded repeatedly and said: "You are on business, children can read a few words is already good, don't delay your business."

Xie Yunjin nodded slightly, and handed the names of the dozen or so children that she wrote earlier to the village chief and said.

"This is the conclusion I have come to after teaching the little ones for a while. The top few children have good talents and can go to private schools to study. They are all pretty good. If they study carefully and teach them well, they may be able to do so in the future. Only two or three scholars will come out."

Hearing this, the village chief eagerly lowered his head to look at the name. He mainly wanted to see if his two grandsons were in front.

In the end, I didn't see Datou, but I saw Mao Mao. Although the village chief was disappointed that Datou was not on it, he was happy that Mao Mao was on it. At least there was one, right?

The village head asked Xie Yunjin: "Is Mao Mao smarter than Da Tou?"

Xie Yunjin said softly: "It doesn't mean that people who read books are smarter than those who don't. Everyone has their own talents. Some people are good at reading, and some people are good at other things."

"The big head is no worse than Mao Mao, but he can't sit still. On the contrary, Mao Mao is small but very stable. The most important thing in reading is to be stable. This is not a matter of a day or two."

As soon as Xie Yunjin said it, the village head understood that his eldest grandson really couldn't sit still, he twisted around like a monkey's butt.

"I get it, the kid Datou can't read."

Xie Yunjin shook his head: "It's not that he can't read. You can't count on him to study and take the imperial examination, but if you send him to read and read, let him do some small business in the future, it won't be too bad."

When the village chief heard this, he immediately said happily: "Then let the two of them read together. It would be good to learn some words and start doing business."

Xie Yunjin smiled, pointed to the list in the village chief's hand and said: "The children above are talented in reading and can study hard. Although the children below are not as smart as the above, they are not bad. After reading, they can't take the imperial examination, but they can do it." a shopkeeper or a cashier."

Hearing this, the village chief thought that being a shopkeeper and accountant would be a good idea, so he nodded and said, "I'll tell their parents later, let them send these children to school."

Xie Yunjin nodded: "Well, there is one more thing I want to tell the village chief."

The village chief looked at Xie Yunjin: "What do you think?"

"Today, the dean of the college recommended me to guide the students in their studies, and they will pay me money, so I thought about pushing down the old house I live in now and building a new one, but the place is a bit small, and I want to expand to the east. I want to ask the village chief to sell that place to me, and the village chief can tell me how much it costs.”

As soon as Xie Yunjin opened his mouth, the village head patted his chest and said: "You don't need money, you can just expand eastward as much as you want, and no one in the village will gossip about you."

Xie Yunjin's family originally lived in the easternmost part of the village, and there is no one in the east of his house. The land is actually a wasteland, because it is too close to the mountain, and there are many stones on the ground, so it is impossible to plant land, so Xie Yunjin wants to expand, the village chief No hesitation at all.

Xie Yunjin looked at the village chief and said softly, "Is this not good? The village chief should tell the villagers."

The village head directly said: "I have the final say on this matter. Let's see who dares to speak up. If anyone speaks up, just let them go."

How many good things Yun Jin and his wife have done for the village, if someone talks about such a small thing, that person will be a wolf-hearted dog, just get out of here.

Xie Yunjin saw that the village chief made such a statement, so he didn't say anything, stood up and thanked the village chief.

The village chief immediately asked him when he would build the house, and he could ask the villagers to help.

Xie Yunjin smiled and said: "In the past two days, I have started to prepare the soil and ram the foundation. The village head will help me ask who in the village is willing to help. I will pay for those who help, thirty yuan a day, and a meal at noon."

The village chief immediately said: "They are all from the village. If you want any money, just pay them a meal."

Normally, it costs fifteen to twenty yuan to go out to work, but the price Xie Yunjin offered was really not a small amount.

However, the village chief thought that this money should not be asked, but Xie Yunjin insisted: "One yard is worth one yard. It is a heartfelt wish for everyone to help me, but we can't always let everyone help for nothing."

He didn't want to get favors from others for such a small amount of money, and he would have to be grateful when he said it in the future, so he might as well give favors to others.

Seeing that Xie Yunjin insisted, the village chief no longer insisted: "When the time comes, tell me directly how many people you need."

"Row."

Xie Yunjin bid farewell to the village chief after finishing speaking, and took Lu Jiao to Xie's house, where he mainly talked about his building the house.

Xie Laogen and the others were stunned when they heard this. His youngest son is too powerful, and if he wants to destroy the brick house, it must cost a lot of money.

Xie Laogen immediately wanted to live in his son's house, Xie Yunjin directly reminded Xie Laogen directly: "Father, we were separated, and we didn't even have a house back then, it seems that Daddy's house is here."

Xie Laogen was ashamed and didn't speak for a long time, Xie Yunjin spoke again: "Today my uncle came over and said that my mother is looking for death at home, let me go and bring mother back."
