"Village Chief, what happened to the Master?" Lu Ziyuan directly brought the topic to the Master.
"I'm afraid this matter is a bit difficult. I've asked around, but only two families are willing to contribute. Including your brother Xia and my brother Zhu, there are only four families. How can I invite each of these four families to have one wife?
I'm sorry." The village chief shook his head with regret.
"A few days ago, I also went to the county to ask someone to ask. This time I invited the master to come to the village. There are two ways to give money. One is three taels of silver a month, which is given to a house to live in. No rice or grain is required.
, and another is that in February, February, and January, my three meals a day will be covered." The village chief paused and said, "The house we live in here is not a problem, but the school house is not a problem. I still have an old house that is empty.
Yes, it can still be inhabited after repairs."
"For four households, it means that we have to pay more than 700 silver a month, which is a bit expensive." Those who want to give their children nearly one tael can't afford it, which is a lot more expensive than originally expected.
times.
Lu Ziyuan calculated in her mind and said, "Village chief, otherwise the three of you families will still be given three hundred cash per month, and the master's rations will be given to our four families together. The rest of the money will be paid by my family."
"Isn't your family going to have to pay nearly two taels of silver that month?" The village chief was frightened. Two taels is not as little as two hundred coins.
"To be honest with the village chief, I originally thought that if the village couldn't find a master, I would send Banxia to a school in the town. The money spent on hiring a car for transportation and transportation every day is no less than these two taels of silver.
How much? Banxia is still young, so it would be better to spend an extra hundred or two hundred cents to let Banxia go to school in the village. He will be relaxed and my mother and I will also feel relieved." Lu Ziyuan explained, not hiding at all that she had already done the calculations.
decision.
Lu He had been listening on the side, and then he interrupted and said to Lu Donglin, "Dad, I also want to go to school, so that in the future I can read and write like cousin Zi Wan."
The village chief touched Sister He's head and smiled. Just when he was about to comfort Sister He, he heard Lu Donglin say, "Since Sister He wants to learn, then follow Brother Xia to learn, regardless of our family."
If there will be a brother in the future, it’s better for Sister He to learn calligraphy first.”
When Lu He heard this, he jumped for joy. Lu Donglin said to the village chief, "The money for the wife's invitation also includes my sister He's share. The amount should be the same as our family's."
The village chief opened his eyes in astonishment, thinking to himself, the Lu family's love for Sister Wan is really a special case in Hexi Village. First, Lu Dongming held Sister Wan like a baby all day long, and now Lu Donglin actually wanted to pay for her.
Sister He goes to school!
Lu Ziyuan curled up her lips and smiled, but Lu Donglin was very similar to Lu Dongming in this regard. He did not favor boys over girls and loved his children very much.
"Okay, then your family will also contribute three hundred coins, and it will also save Sister Wan's family some money." The old village chief smiled and touched his goatee and sighed with a smile on his face, "If all the parents in our village could
I think it would be great if you, Dong Lin, are so enlightened. If everyone is literate and learns principles, our village will become the most literary village. I hope that in the future, when someone hears that they are from Hexi Village, they will say,
Oh, then you must be literate!"
Lu Ziwan and the others chuckled, but Lu Ziwan knew that the village chief's hope was unlikely to come true. There were always so many farmers who admired people who could read, but at the same time felt that their family members were useless if they could read.
Do farm work honestly and save money to marry a wife in the future.
