Grandma "ah" a, said: "at least eat again!"

Can orange way: "come back to eat again!"

Li Qing took a plate to fill several newly fried glutinous rice cakes and said with a smile, "mother, give this to Mr. Jiang!"

Grandma picked it up and asked Li Qing to cover it. Then she took Ke orange out of the door and muttered, "look at you I don't know. I thought you were going to put out the fire

But orange said: "it's more urgent than fighting a fire! Grandma, I'll tell you, if the second uncle built this car, maybe the business of the mill will be doubled in the future! "

Where does grandma believe it? She insisted, but orange, this is a Lilliputian dream, whimsical. So he said with a smile, "what nonsense? If you want to write with paper and pen, grandma will spend money to buy some for you, and you don't have to fool me. "

Can orange "hum" a, thought: "wait for me to make out, guarantee teach you a big surprise!" Don't talk now.

After a while, they went to the head of the village. Grandma took Ke Cheng to the left and said with a smile, "here we are!"

In front of us is a small two-story building, with green tiles and gray walls, carved window lattice, and carved magpie climbing plum on the top of the wall. It means that spring comes after cold. It is the most typical southern folk house. There is a plaque on it, which says "Lingyu family school". In front of the door are two pots of green pines, and there is a half person high stone statue of Confucius. The door is open, and the sound of reading comes from inside.

"Knowing is knowing, not knowing..." But orange probe to see, sure enough, everyone is shaking his head.

People who work in the fields respect scholars most. So does grandma. She stands outside the door, fearing that she might disturb the students and be blamed by her husband.

But orange asked in a low voice: "grandma, who are the people reading inside?"

Grandma said in a low voice: "they are all respectable people in the nearby village, only seven or eight children left -"

but orange frowned: "grandma, does reading cost a lot of money?"

Grandma whispered: "that's shuxiu! Where do I know how much it will cost? There are many. It's not much, but once you read a book, you'll have to go to Beijing to take the exam. How many people can win the exam? You have to take the exam three, five, six, seven times. What's more, you have to take the exam when you are 50 or 60 years old! Therefore, the cost of the examination can drag a rich family into a poor family! "

Can orange ask: "grandma, we open mill to earn money?"

Grandma said with a smile: "naturally, otherwise why open?"

But orange said: "in this case, why doesn't grandma let brother baozi go to school? We don't do it for fame, we just do it for reason! You have to go to school to read and understand! In the future, our mill will become bigger and bigger. We don't even have a bookkeeper. How can we make others laughGrandma said with a smile: "look what you said, where can it be big? Just have a full meal and a broth! Let's be more extravagant - let's all have a silk dress to wear! That's great! Why do you think so much? "

Before the end of the speech, a voice behind him rang out: "what did you say, old lady? Why are you so ambitious? "

Grandma and grandson were startled. Looking back, they turned out to be grandfather!

Can orange busy ask: "grandfather, how do you come?"

"Old man Li said with a smile:" Ciba ready, I want to call you to eat, then found here Then he asked Ke Cheng, "how come our third sister wants to study?"

But orange said with a smile: "I don't study. I just want to borrow books from my husband and buy paper and pen to draw pictures. My second uncle and I have agreed to build a bobbin car! By the way, grandfather, why don't you let them go to school? "

Old man Li was stunned: "why go to school?"

Can orange good inducement: "grandfather, reading can read and understand! In the future, when our mill becomes bigger, we will have to keep accounts and some big businesses will come to us. At that time, there will be no literate in our family, and we will not be fooled? "

Old man Li thought about it and said with a smile, "you're right. It's just I'll try to make a dish, too! "

But orange knew that it was necessary to strike iron while it was hot, so he said quickly, "it's not able to do anything but work on an abacus. You have to read and keep accounts! What else are you? A few days ago, I sent food to chef Li with my father. I heard chef Li say that he thought the rice bought outside was not delicious. He wanted to buy some fresh rice and new glutinous rice flour. I listen, this is not to send business to the door! He patted his heart and promised that my grandfather had planted 20 acres of good paddy fields! Both japonica and glutinous rice! When the harvest comes back, send it to him immediately! Guarantee that if he eats our grandfather's rice, he won't want to eat other people's! "

Mr. Li said, "where does our family have 20 mu of land? It's only ten acres. "

But orange said with a smile: "isn't the field rented back? I've seen it on my way here. The area along the river is barren land, and no one cultivates it... "

Li Laotou said: "where is unmanned farming? It's the land of thousands of families, dozens of Mu! It's just that his mother is ill and he can't take care of it. It's been a waste of six months... "

Can orange then ask: "since so, why does he not rent to others grow?"

Old man Li thought about it, shook his head and said, "Wansan is a strange man. He refuses to rent any more. Who knows what's in his mind?"

Can orange thought, have time to meet this Wansan line!

Just then, the door of Lingyu's family school opened, and several well-dressed children rushed out. When the eight or nine year old boy saw old man Li, he quickly and respectfully called out: "good uncle, good aunt."

Old man Li answered and said with a smile, "this school boy is really different from others. He has very good rules." Then he asked him, "are you going to school?" He turned to Ke orange and said, "why don't you shout your brother?"

But orange is searching for the relevant memory of the boy in his mind, but after thinking about it for a long time, it is still blank, so he has to smile at him.
