Chapter 61

When the jelly was ready, ye Xiaoxian went to the county with Li Hongmei and Xiao Baoshan.

Midway, Li Hongmei also blamed Ye Xiaoxian and said, "Ye, you really shouldn't be used to Baozhu in the morning. If she wants to learn words, she can take the book to the county and learn while working. If she doesn't understand, you can ask you. Now she's at home alone, obviously she wants to be lazy. She's not a big lady. If she loses the reputation of a lazy woman, it's afraid it's a problem to get married."

Ye Xiaoxian said with a smile, "Mom, it's not so serious. Baozhu is a sensible girl. She has a sense of propriety in her heart."

"If she stays in the village every day and doesn't come out to see the world all her life, I believe she has a sense of propriety. I'm afraid her heart will become wild after she comes out to see the world and doesn't know who she is."

"Who said that about their daughter?" Ye Xiaoxian smiled.

Li Hongmei still shook her head.

……

After the family left, Xiao Baozhu read the script alone in the room.

Once a person is interested in something, he will make rapid progress in learning. Once Xiao Baozhu meets a word he knows, he will circle it immediately and put it into the next paragraph.

But reading alone is still difficult.

Near noon, Xiao Baozhu was indifferent, and then thought, "Alas, if only I could go to a private school every day like Baofeng!"

Thinking of Baofeng, Xiao Baozhu suddenly wanted to go to a private school.

I've been to the county, not to mention the private school in the town?

Xiao Baozhu said she would go. With Xiao Baofeng's description, she soon found the location of the private school.

The school is quiet and quiet. You can hear the sound of reading from a distance.

Xiao Baozhu couldn't help thinking: no wonder Baofeng made such rapid progress. He learned so many words in just half a month. It turned out that it was the environment.

Outside the private school, Xiao Baozhu quietly looked inside from the window.

Naturally, there are boys inside. Some are reading, some are practicing calligraphy, and some are not serious.

Xiao Baozhu only felt extremely envious. She wished she was also a man.

Watching, Xiao Baozhu suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

To be exact, it was the rustle of her feet on the leaves, and she immediately turned back vigilantly.

However, at such a glance, Xiao Baozhu suddenly looked at the person in front of him as if he had been hit by a acupoint.

In her hand, she still held the story book about the scholar falling in love with an ordinary woman. Ye Xiaoxian told her the story. Although she only told half of it, she read two more paragraphs. The scholar described in the book is like this: a square hat, wearing a light blue robe, holding a folding fan in her hand. Her face is like a crown of jade and gentle.

And the person in front of me is exactly what the book describes.

"Why is the girl here?" Wang Xiucai asked Xiao Baozhu.

Xiao Baozhu blushed like a cooked prawn. She hesitated and said, "I... I want to learn!"

Wang Xiucai saw the book in Xiao Baozhu's hand. He smiled and asked, "what's in your hand..."

"My sister-in-law gave it to me. She said I had just learned to read. I'd better read while reading. In this way, I can improve quickly."

Wang Xiucai saw the title of the book: "people in the dream of spring boudoir"

At first glance, it is a Book of love.

Although Wang Xiucai is not interested in such books, he has to admit that the "sister-in-law" is very smart and knows how to use such aspects to guide the girl who has just learned Chinese characters.

In the future, if we deepen our guidance, we can read some more profound books.

"It's good for you to read and read, but I only accept male students, not female students." Wang Xiucai politely wants to drive Xiao Baozhu away.

But he spoke so deeply that Xiao Baozhu couldn't understand the deeper meaning.

"I'm not going to study in your school. I'll listen outside and see how your students... Study. By the way, my brother also studies here. His name is Xiao Baofeng."

"Baofeng..." Wang Xiucai suddenly brightened his eyes: "so, the sister-in-law you are referring to is the sister-in-law who sent Baofeng back?"

"Well, there is only one sister-in-law in our family!" Xiao Baozhu said, "Sir, do you remember our sister-in-law?"

"Now many students are forced by their parents to study. It's rare that your sister-in-law knows the great righteousness and will send her husband's brother to school, so I have a little impression of her!" Wang Xiucai was embarrassed to say that he was actually impressed by Ye Xiaoxian.

Xiao Baozhu finally found a common topic and said to herself, "yes, my sister-in-law is very good. She not only let my brother come to school to study, but also let me learn to read. It is said that I can understand things only when I can read."

"What does your sister-in-law do?" Wang Xiucai thought bitterly that such a woman must have her husband's support, otherwise she would not be willing to send her husband's brother to study.

But Xiao Baozhu said, "my sister-in-law now makes jelly to sell in the county every day. She gets up early and gets busy in the dark. However, selling jelly also makes some money. At least she eats meat at home. By the way, my sister-in-law cooks very delicious."

"What about your brother? What does he do? What does he do for a living?"

"My brother works as a factotum in the Yamen. His income is low. He still depends on his sister-in-law to sell jelly." Xiao Baozhu road.

After hearing Xiao Baozhu's words, Wang Xiucai immediately respected Ye Xiaoxian.

There is such a virtuous, knowledgeable, hardworking and kind-hearted woman in the world.

If you can find such a confidant, you will have no regrets in this life.

Wang Xiucai was not in a hurry to let Xiao Baozhu go. He only said, "if you want to see it outside, you can see it, but don't make a noise or disturb the students inside."

"I know!"

After Wang Xiucai turned back, Xiao Baozhu still stared at Wang Xiucai's back.

She suddenly became more and more interested in the book in her hand, and couldn't help substituting herself into the book, imagining that she was the woman in the book.

A gentle scholar fell in love with an ordinary woman. The scholar decided to marry her regardless of the opposition of his family.

I'm so ashamed.

……

Near noon, ye Xiaoxian went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.

Yesterday, I told the boss who sold chicken to leave her chicken feet. The boss didn't break his promise. She kept all the chicken feet for her, a total of more than 20.

Ye Xiaoxian got the chicken feet and bought a pumpkin and some milk. She thought that there was sugar and flour in Liu's kitchen, so she didn't have to buy any more.

Today she made pumpkin steamed bread, pumpkin soup and crystal chicken feet.

Pumpkin steamed bread should be tied with thread before steaming. In this way, it will be pumpkin like after steaming. Pumpkin soup with milk is not only appetizing but also helpful for digestion. It is especially suitable for hot days.

Not to mention the crystal chicken claw, you only need to soak it for two hours, and you can use it as a snack.

Liu Qianqian still admired Ye Xiaoxian's craftsmanship. Not only Liu Qianqian, but also member Liu couldn't help coming to taste it. After eating, he praised Ye Xiaoxian's strength.

The crystal phoenix claw was gnawed clean by the father and daughter two hours later, and wanted to swallow all the bones.

Member Liu said, "when I was young, I also visited many places outside. I rarely met a good cook like the little lady of the Ye family. If only she could come to our house to be a cook."

Liu Qianqian hurriedly said, "I'll ask her when she comes tomorrow. Let's give her more money so that she doesn't have to work so hard to sell jelly every day."

One hundred of Liu Yuanwai agree. After all, what he eats now is the leftover of his daughter. If ye Xiaoxian can come and be their cook, ye Xiaoxian must cook for him, then he can eat a lot of delicious food.

……

When ye Xiaoxian and Li Hongmei came back, Xiao Baozhu was still studying the script at home.

Li Hongmei called her several times, and Xiao Baozhu replied lazily, "are you back?"

Li Hongmei was angry: "Baozhu, what's the matter with you? Your sister-in-law and I have been busy in the county all day. You don't know to cook the rice first. Do you want us to do everything for free?"

Xiao Baozhu was impatient and said, "isn't that Baofeng also doing nothing except going to school?"

"He'll help when he comes back. What about you? You're a sister, four or five years older than her." Li Hongmei.

Xiao Baozhu was unconvinced: "my sister-in-law asked me to read this book. I made jelly in the morning."

Ye Xiaoxian saw that their mother and daughter were about to quarrel. She hurried over and said, "OK, OK, mom, Baozhu, don't quarrel. Let's start cooking now. Mom will make a fire, Baozhu will come out to wash vegetables, and I'll wash rice and cook?"

Xiao Baozhu said, "it's almost the same."

When ye Xiaoxian came out to wash rice, she inadvertently looked at Xiao Baozhu. Xiao Baozhu smiled while washing vegetables.

Ye Xiaoxian wondered.

Is Xiao Baozhu poisoned by this book?

It's just a small book, isn't it?

It was not until dinner that ye Xiaoxian reluctantly knew the reason.

"Baozhu, what did our scholar teach you today?" Xiao Baofeng asks Xiao Baozhu while eating.

At the mention of "Mr. scholar", Xiao Baozhu suddenly blushed.

"How did you know?" Xiao Baozhu asked.

"I saw it in the window. Mr. scholar is teaching you to read, isn't he?" Xiao Baofeng looks like he has found a big secret.

"I wanted to go to you to teach me how to read, but your scholar said that only male students were allowed here, and women were not allowed to go in, so I read outside. People's scholar saw that I was diligent and good enough to come out and asked me what words I couldn't read. He taught me by the way."

"Can you now?"

"Of course!" Xiao Baozhu is proud of the tunnel.

Mr. scholar

Ye Xiaoxian vaguely remembered Wang Xiucai of Yingfeng school. People looked young, gentle and elegant. Did Baozhu like others?

But this is not surprising. Wang Xiucai looks beautiful and must be liked by girls, but Wang Xiucai looks gentle and elegant. He should be noble in his bones, and I don't know if he can see a jewel.

Just, it's useless to think too much about this kind of thing. Let's see again. If so, she can remind Baozhu at an appropriate time.
