Chapter 26: Get the first step?

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao!" The people who left came one after another to say goodbye to Xiao Jing and others. After a long time, they reluctantly left the empty forest.
Obviously I'm just going home, but it feels like I'm parting from life or death.
Shao Ning ran over with excitement and hugged Xiao Jing's shoulders: "Today is really not in vain. I counted, there must be almost two hundred people!"
Xiao Jing's throat was completely speechless. He lowered his head, picked up a branch, and wrote on the ground with a look of inquiry.
"Ha? You're thinking too much!" Shaoning almost laughed out loud: "The government doesn't care. A group of old, young and old, not many young and strong, can they still gather together to roar in the mountains and forests!"
Xiao Jing nodded, erased the writing on the ground with his foot, and walked straight to Dong Xiaoya.
Miss Xiaoya finally managed to get rid of all the "enthusiastic people" and was packing her things. Xiao Jing, who was walking very lightly, had already arrived beside her, but she was still lowering her head and doing what she was doing.
Xiao Jing bent down and wanted to write some words on the ground, but Dong Xiaoya was still unaware. Gradually, the movements of her hands became slower and slower, and finally she squatted there quietly, like a statue.
Did she cry?
Shaoning was about to say a few words when he was pulled hard behind by Xiao Jing. Shaoning, who saw the opportunity quickly, rarely said a word. The two grown men communicated with each other with their eyes, and then tiptoed to the distance to coax Xiaoyuan.
Went.
When he got to Dong Huaiyuan, he didn't get any favors. He pouted his mouth glumly and ignored Xiao Jing. When the question was urgent, he dropped one sentence: "Brother Xiao Jing gives people candied haws and asks for help.
They don’t even look for me, I won’t pay attention to Brother Xiao Jing anymore” and ran away.
Isn’t that lousy kid who works as a child care provider too strict? I only found him because Xiao Yuan was not suitable as a child care provider. Why did he sell me out as soon as he turned around!
On the other side, Dong Xiaoya calmed down and packed her things. She stood up, wiped her eyes, and turned her gaze to the backs of Xiao Jing and Shaoning.
During the days when she was a disaster victim, she never thought that she would have a chance to gain recognition from others.
She once thought that the best outcome for her would be to marry someone with not so bad character by chance, or to work as a slave in a wealthy family, where she could have a full meal every day, and then live her life.
A life of eating and waiting to die.
Now, she is fortunate to be a "female gentleman". That feeling is different from being a young lady who is admired by all the stars, and it is even different from being a refugee who is rejected by others. She still remembers that a mother-in-law pulled her
The hand said countless words of thanks, and when he left, he specifically warned: "Girl, I don't have a boy at home, so I leave my little granddaughter to you. You must teach her to read more!"
Seeing Xiao Jing and Shao Ning walking towards her, Dong Xiaoya greeted them with a smile, and then followed them with a smile on her face...
It's dark.
After a tiring day, Xiao Jing did not go to bed early. He sat on the couch and stared at a piece of paper in his hand.
Shao Ning had brought this paper into the house before, saying that a servant of his family got it in the capital. Xiao Jing didn't take it seriously at first, but after seeing the content on the paper, he suddenly felt a little at a loss.
Could it be that someone got there first?
He put down the paper and walked out of the room, knocking on the door opposite again.
"Sister, what do you think of my handwriting?" Dong Huaiyuan grabbed a piece of paper with his little hand and opened the door excitedly. When he saw Xiao Jing, he snorted and turned around to leave.
Xiao Jing shook his head and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaoyuan, do me a favor tomorrow morning. Tell everyone for me that Mr. Shao and I are going to the capital and we will start classes the day after tomorrow."
Dong Huaiyuan looked back a little unbearably, and finally said "oh".
Xiao Jing saw that he was not in a high mood, so he smiled evilly and stood behind him, saying in a low voice: "Xiao Yuan, please don't be angry. Another day, brother Xiao Jing will leave you five bunches of candied haws, okay?"
Dong Huaiyuan turned back to look at him resentfully but said nothing.
Xiao Jing said again: "Well, brother Xiao Jing will go to the capital tomorrow and come back to bring you delicious food, okay?"
At this moment, Xiao Yuan was a little moved. He blinked a few times and said seriously: "Then, I taste better than candied haws!"
"Okay, it's a deal!" Xiao Jing touched his head, turned around and walked out of the house.
He wanted to go to Shaoning to discuss the matter, but when he turned around, he saw Dong Xiaoya knocking on his door with a bowl.
Xiao Jing, who didn't want to speak because his throat was really uncomfortable, took a few steps forward and opened the door, making a gesture of inviting him in.
Dong Xiaoya was startled when a person suddenly came out from behind. When she turned around and saw it was Xiao Jing, she took a deep breath and said: "The slave family asked for some dried pears and soaked them in pear water. Please moisturize your throat, sir."
Xiao Jing nodded and smiled in thanks, picked up the cup and took a sip, then extended his thumb.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and blinked hard at Dong Xiaoya. Xiaoya tilted her head for no apparent reason, and Xiao Jing suddenly patted his head, then walked to the desk and wrote a row of words.
Dong Xiaoya walked over slowly and saw the words he wrote. Not to mention "like being struck by lightning" so exaggeratedly, she was so shocked that she took half a step back. She stared at Xiao Jing closely and was speechless for a while.
Come.
Xiao Jing didn't speak or write, he just looked at her calmly, as if waiting for her answer.
After a long time, Dong Xiaoya bit her lip and picked up the pen. Although she talked a lot during the day, her voice was not bad; for some reason, she also chose to talk in writing.
A line of beautiful small words fell on the paper. Xiao Jing lowered his head and smiled, then took the pen and wrote: "It doesn't matter, you can think about it slowly."
Dong Xiaoya nodded and said: "Young master, have a good rest. I will go back first."
After she closed the door, Xiao Jing sat down on the couch.
He is determined to seize the day and push forward what he wants to do. He has achieved some results, but it is still not enough!
As a media person, Xiao Jing has no intention of using the technology of later generations to forcefully change the world and its original social ecology like other time travellers. Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, he will not introduce the technology of his past world here.
However, using public opinion as a weapon to ideologically promote social progress, and then drive the development of the entire era, is much more difficult than first using science and technology to achieve practical results, and then using the practical results as an example to change people's ideas, and the results are much slower.
There's a lot more preparation involved.
He smiled bitterly and patted his head. How could a fool like himself choose the god-level difficulty!
The pawns crossing the river advance but never retreat!
In order to suppress his inner annoyance, he simply got into bed.
Chapter completed!
