When He Jiuniang returned to Anping Village, the sun was almost setting. Mainly because there were too many things today, it was already late when she went to the county seat, and she had been delayed for so long.

The Lu family has long been worried. Logically speaking, Anping Village is not very far from the county seat, and He Jiuniang went there on horseback. She should be back soon. Why is it so late?

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

Lu Guilan was the first to greet her, with worry on her face.

"It's okay, don't worry!"

He Jiuniang waved her hand and went in with Lu Guilan. Seeing Sun's sullen face, she knew that the little old lady must be angry again. I wanted to coax her first.

“You still want to come back!”

As soon as she approached, before she could speak, Mrs. Sun spoke first, her voice full of accusation and dissatisfied. .

He Jiuniang walked over with a smile and held her arm shamelessly: "Mom, I made money today!" He took out the bag and put it in Sun's hand.

"What's going on?"

The little old lady felt something was wrong at first sight. How could she make money just by going out?

Suddenly he was no longer angry with Qiao, and looked at her nervously.

He Jiuniang knew that the little old lady was just pretending to be angry, but in fact she was worried about her, so she said: "Today I helped the government catch two gangsters, and the county magistrate rewarded me. ! How about it, am I awesome?”

“What a fart! Why do you, a woman, imitate others and catch gangsters? Take care of your own life!”

Mr. Sun He slapped her hand away, opened the money bag and saw that it was twenty taels, so he took ten taels, and then threw the money bag to her: "Keep the rest for yourself!"

He Jiuniang knew that the little old lady still cared about her, so she did not refuse and said: "That's okay. In a few days, I will take Xiao Huzi and the others to the county town to buy some pens, inks, paper and inkstones... Oh, by the way, I forgot. Let me tell you, I went to the county today and found a school for Leizi, Jiezi and Xiaohuzi to study in. I have paid all the necessary training and will just send the children to the school in seven days. I heard that the gentleman taught them very well! "

He Jiuniang took a sip of water. She had been busy all day and didn't have time to drink water. She was really thirsty.

Lu Guilan thought she heard wrongly and asked: "Third, third sister-in-law, are you saying that my little tiger can also go to school?"

"Yes, little tiger. The age of my son was just right for enlightenment, so I sent him away together.”

He Jiuniang didn't think there was anything wrong with this. She thought Lu Guilan was unwilling to send her children to study, so she advised: "Little sister, children's study is a big deal. If you study and practice calligraphy, even if you don't rely on function in the future, you will be more successful than ordinary people in the future. , at least you won't be fooled easily, you can't..."

"No!" Lu Guilan knew that she had misunderstood, and hurriedly interrupted her, "I just think that you are too kind to me, sister-in-law. Huzi can go to school at such a young age, but your little puppy didn’t go.”

Speaking, Lu Guilan was so moved that she burst into tears. Yu and Qin didn’t expect He Jiuniang to go to school so quickly. I would settle things down. I thought I would wait until the house was built and everything was arranged before thinking about it.

"Gou'er is young, and the school only accepts children as young as four years old. This is why I didn't sign up Gou'er and Xiao Liangzi."

He Jiuniang said, He deliberately glanced at Shen, not wanting her to misunderstand.

Ms. Shen actually didn't think about this. The relationship between her family and the Lu family was not that close. They were the sister-in-law's natal family, not hers, so she didn't have any dissatisfaction.

But she didn’t expect that the third sister-in-law could explain this to her, and she suddenly felt warm in her heart.

"Hey! Sister-in-law, you are so polite. Our family is very satisfied that we can stay together in peace. Besides, studying will cost a lot of money. Just keep it for the children at home. No need. It’s none of our business.”

Ms. Shen smiled and said everything sincerely.

"What are you talking about? If we live together, we will become a family. When Gou'er and Xiao Liangzi reach age next year, we will send them together."

He Jiuniang She also smiled sincerely. She was helping the Zhang family not because of her bad intentions, but because she thought that she was about to start a business and needed the help of the Zhang brothers. In fact, she wanted their children to go to school so that they could accept her. If you have a relationship, you will also show your sincerity when helping with business in the future.

　“Hey, thank you Third Sister-in-law!”

Mrs. Shen was so moved that she decided in her heart that she would do whatever Third Sister-in-law asked her to do in the future, and she must repay Third Sister-in-law for her kindness. !

Ms. Sun’s face was not very good, she knew that this prodigal woman would cause trouble. Does she know how much it costs to educate a child?

The family does still have some money now, but after building the house and paying the wages, there will definitely not be much left. When the time comes, we still have to support a large family. Where can we come up with so much money?

But He Jiu Niang had said it in front of so many people, and she couldn’t let He Jiu Niang come down from the stage, so she said: "Since the children at home are studying, the repair fees should still come from the public school. Come on, how much silver is the repair fee? I'll give it to you right now."

I just took ten taels of silver from He Jiu Niang, which should be enough.

He Jiu Niang waved her hands repeatedly: "Mom, I will keep the money from the father-in-law to build a house and a house. Let’s buy fertile land. I still have some money in my hand. Even if I give it as a gift to my nephews this time, it will be the same thing when the father-in-law pays for it next year. The family doesn’t have to be so polite. ”

The second bedroom and Lu Guilan all looked grateful. He Jiuniang smiled very warmly and said all kinds of nice words, coaxing the sisters-in-law into running around.

Ms. Sun glared at her without saying a word. She couldn't stand the look of a prodigal woman like her, and she was full of resentment.

If she didn't want it, she wouldn't want it. I feel sorry for the money!

A group of people sat down to eat. It was too late today and there was no time to kill the chickens and fish, so they saved them for tomorrow morning.

After dinner It was getting dark, but fortunately this afternoon, the men set up the straw hut. Finally, there was no need to count the stars when sleeping tonight.

He Jiuniang took out a large bundle of oilcloth from her backpack. He said: "Big brother, second brother, and two brothers-in-law, could you please put these oilcloths on the roof of the thatched shed, tie them with ropes, and then hang the excess down. It can just cover the surrounding areas. There will be no wind leakage when sleeping at night. Don't worry. Cold to the child. "

"The third brother and sister are so thoughtful! "

Boss Lu couldn't help but praise, and Mrs. Sun complained in her heart: How can a big grudge not be considerate?

The men endured the fake injuries on their bodies to fix the oilcloth. It was already very late, so the family tidied up and went to bed.

There were many Lu family members, so they built three thatched sheds in total. Men and women were separated. Boys over four years old slept with their father. , girls sleep with their mothers, and three-year-olds like Gou'er and Xiao Liangzi naturally sleep with their mothers.

It is quite comfortable for a big family to sleep in three thatched sheds, Ms. Sun has something to say If you want to say it, she deliberately sleeps next to her third daughter-in-law, who is her biggest grievance.
