Chapter 309 Short vacation
"Hey...it's not a big deal, actually. I just taught the kids to read and practice calligraphy for over half a month..."
"Sister Yingchun, are you feeling tired?"
Xiao Yingchun quickly shook her head and explained, "These little ones are smarter than each other and learn things so quickly.
In another month, there will be nothing left to teach.
I thought I’d tell you in advance so you can make plans early.”
Xiao Yingchun had previously served in Miss Wang's study, and only then did she recognize a few words, but she had never received formal instruction from a teacher.
When Song An Ning taught her this task, she vowed to teach the children everything she knew. She felt really embarrassed to tell Song An Ning this not long after.
"I've also noticed that, especially Ayuan and Asheng, these two learn things very quickly.
Not only that, there are a lot of messy problems waiting for you."
Xiao Yingchun nodded in agreement, smiled and sighed:
"I really don't know what's going on in their little heads. A few days ago, when I was teaching them to read, I casually recited a line of poetry, and Ah Yue kept asking what it meant and what the next line was.
But my knowledge is limited, and I don’t know the next sentence at all. It’s so embarrassing.”
"Sister Yingchun, you've done very well. Among the thank-you gifts the Chen family sent me today, I saw several copies of the Thousand Character Classic, as well as a lot of writing brushes, inkstones, and paper. I'll take them this afternoon and start by teaching what I know.
In two days, I will ask an old gentleman to come over. He is proficient in both civil and military affairs and can take them for some exercise in the morning.
In the morning, we study and learn to read. Nowadays, the duck eggs are washed and delivered to our house, so the children don’t have to work. They can take a nap at noon and go weed the fields in the afternoon when it’s not too hot.
Xiao Yingchun looked at Song An Ning with a smile, with a bit of admiration in her eyes.
"You're really thoughtful. No matter what happens, you can handle it calmly and come up with solutions."
"No, I just happened to meet the right person when I went out. I told him that he would come over to take care of the children after the new house is put up. Then you can rest up."
Song Anning felt a little embarrassed by her praise, and told Xiao Yingchun about her agreement with Old Man Pan, and asked Xiangxiang to help her check her body.
After examination, it was found that the scar hyperplasia on Xiao Yingchun's body was half healed, and the malnutrition caused by being sold to the dental clinic was also cured.
Grandma's illness this time also served as a wake-up call for her. From now on, whenever she is at home, the first thing she will do every morning is to ask Xiangxiang to check the health of her family members and intervene in time if there are any problems.
"Master, the system has updated the weather forecast. Starting tomorrow night, it will rain for four or five consecutive days from Ping'an Town to Linhai Town.
The rain isn’t heavy, but it will continue.”
The system screen appeared in front of her. Song Anning checked it carefully. It had been raining lightly to moderately for several days in a row, which was a good thing for the crops in the fields.
"Then let's just stay home and relax. Grandpa and grandma are not in good health, and my second uncle is also worried. Even if the weather is fine, we won't go out."
"Well, then we'll stay in the village. But master, don't forget to harvest the vegetables in the space. There are also rewards for leveling up by yourself."
"Don't worry, I won't forget it."
Ten days of peace passed, and Song Anning gave herself a short vacation.
When I get up in the morning, I first take a walk around the two spaces, harvest the ripe vegetables and plant new ones, stretch my muscles in the space, and take out the basic version of the martial arts manual to try to practice.
I also brought some delicious food to my elder brother and the people in the space, and visited Old Man Pan at the old house at the foot of the mountain from time to time.
On the way, he went to Linhai Town twice to send Xiaochuan and Xiaoyu back, and brought back three boats of duck eggs.
The Chen family's business has returned to normal. Chen Guangming and Chen Guanghui came a few days ago and brought a lot of fresh seafood to them and Wang Qiuyue's siblings. They also chose a date and place, and will move the grave after a while.
It drizzled for several days in a row, and a lot of weeds sprouted in the fields after the rain. After finishing their studies every day, the children would go to the fields to help Xiao Ming with some work. Song Anneng also gave them some rewards, ten copper coins a day.
During this time, Song Nian dried some black cow dung and gave it to the doctor. The rest of the time, he either visited Zhang or did farm work, weeding in the vegetable patch. He also apologized to Liu and the children.
That day, Song An Ning sat next to her mother watching her weave baskets, and was talking to Xiangxiang with her mind.
"Master, your mother's illness has healed. She has been stable for the past ten days. She can hardly pretend anymore."
"Hehe, I know that, but I still respect my mother's opinion and wait for her to say it herself. The day after tomorrow when the new house is put up with its beams, everyone in the village will come.
I used my mind to read her yesterday, and from what she said, she wanted to double her happiness and return to normal on that day, and she wanted everyone in the village to see it."
"Haha, your mother is quite interesting too.
She wanted to tell the villagers: She, Wang Ying'er, has recovered, and this time, she will take back everything that belongs to her.
Hearing Xiangxiang's excited voice in her mind, Song Anning couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Wang Ying'er stopped what she was doing and looked at her in a daze.
I was thinking, "What's wrong with this kid? Every time he sits next to me, he just smiles foolishly. Does he have someone he likes?"
"Alas, you haven't reached marriageable age yet, so you should stay at home for a few more years. What if another He Guangzong comes along?"
Song Anning was completely speechless and quickly closed her grin. What on earth was this all about? The thought of getting married, especially marrying someone from this era, instantly retracted her bared teeth.
I really can't get married. The thought of having to live with one person for decades to come, without even being able to use my space and treasures, is terrifying.
"Second Uncle is coming this way. He's come to kowtow and admit his mistakes to Grandma. He seems to be much calmer these past two days."
"Well, otherwise I got beaten for nothing. My eyes are still black and blue."
"Hahaha, this beating was not in vain, it made me sober."
After a while, Song Nian walked into the yard and saw Wang Ying'er and Song An Ning in the yard. He walked over and greeted them with a smile on his face.
"Second uncle, what's the good news today?"
A few days ago, Song Nian apologized to Song An Ning several times, and now he still felt a little embarrassed to see her. When Song An Ning asked this, his face immediately blushed.
"How did Aning know?
Hey, your second aunt just told me to move back home. Do you think she has forgiven me?"
In fact, with Xiangxiang around, Song Anning already knew what was going on, but she still said with a look of surprise:
"That's a good thing. My second uncle moved out a few days ago and couldn't eat or sleep well.
But after what happened last time, Second Aunt was really sad, and her injuries haven’t healed yet.
However, since Second Aunt lets you go back and live with her, it means she still has you in her heart. Second Uncle, you should behave yourself, work harder, and say more nice things.
"Yes, I'll work and she can just take care of herself."
Song Nian scratched his head. Seeing that Song An Ning did not distance herself from him because of the previous incident, he felt even more guilty. Thinking about what he had been thinking about in the past two days, he hesitated and spoke to Song An Ning.
"Aning, Second Uncle wants to ask you for a favor..."
