There is Room For the Poor Daughter

The refugee case was successfully resolved, and the students and teachers in the county school received countless thanks.

Because of this experience, the county school has undergone some changes.

For example, some students who don't like to read books took the initiative to pick up books for the first time.

When asked why, some people said that they should study hard, become a good official who will benefit the people in the future, and prevent refugees from appearing under their rule;

Some people say that refugees are living too miserably. They should read more books, or else their family assets will be wiped out by them, and they will have to become refugees.

No matter what the reason is, this kind of change is something that Zhu Chengyu likes to see.

Because the donation was initiated by Yan Wenxiu, in the following days, every time Zhu Chengyu met him, he was extraordinarily pleasant.

One day, Zhu Chengyu wandered to the county government office and praised Yan Wenxiu when he met everyone.

The people in the county government also knew about this, and they also praised it together.

Anyone who can work here is a good person, and they naturally won't miss such a good opportunity to flatter the magistrate.

These words were heard by the county magistrate Yan, and it really made him feel special.

Master Xiao glanced at Magistrate Yan, who had never stopped smiling, and shook his head with a smile.

Because he has assistant Yan Wenxiu, he knows more than others.

For example, the matter of asking students to donate was proposed by the eldest girl of the Yan family.

In his opinion, the one who deserves the most praise for this donation is the eldest girl of the Yan family.

You know, before that, even he didn't think of a way to get the wealthy squires in the county to take out their belongings to help the refugees.

Although the eldest girl from the Yan family only gave her opinion and did not participate in it, she should be the first in terms of merits and deeds.

Did Yan Zhigao forget Daohua?

of course not!

Because of this incident, he discovered that the eldest daughter was really as smart and clear as Mrs. Yan said, and she was a little more tolerant of her eldest daughter in the later interactions.

At the same time, the Yan family found that after the donation experience, Yan Wenxiu also had some changes. He was more stable and more confident than before.

Songheyuan.

Mrs. Yan is chatting with her three daughters-in-law.

Mrs. Yan: "This donation was done right, you guys look at Wen Xiu, he went out for a few days, but he was much more cheerful than before. I used to watch him bored in the house reading all day long, and I was bored for him. panic."

As a teenage boy, when she was lively and active, every time she saw her eldest grandson sitting in the room with a book, she felt distressed.

Mrs. Li sighed: "Wen Xiu, this child, puts too much pressure on himself."

Mrs Sun smiled and said, "Wen Xiu is the grandson of the Yan family, and bears the heavy burden of the Yan family. The elder brother is more concerned. Isn't the pressure great, unlike my Wenjie, who is either crazy or troubled all day long."

Mrs. Yan: "It's good to read a lot, but you can't stop reading. What did Daohua say?"

Wu shi continued with a smile: "We must combine work and rest."

Mrs. Yan: "Yes, yes, that's it. You have to combine work and rest, read a book for a while, and then play for a while, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort."

Mrs. Li smiled: "Isn't this what Daohua said deliberately when she wanted to play?"

Mrs. Yan looked at Mrs. Li with a disapproving face: "Nonsense, Daohua has never let me worry about reading, she said, only by reading can you be sensible and sensible, and you have a lot of knowledge in your head. , don't be afraid wherever you go."

"When she was a child, I didn't even think about this, she knew that she was studying for herself, that is, the master, she found it all by herself."

"You all know the third uncle, such an old-fashioned old man loves Daohua. It's not good. He always complains that Daohua is not a boy."

Wu Shi smiled and said, "That's not because the third uncle valued Daohua."

Mrs. Yan: "It's more important, but it's too patriarchal. My Daohua is a girl, why can't the girl be powerful?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Li paused and sighed in her heart.

The world has too many constraints on women. Compared with girls, boys are much more comfortable.

"Grandma, I'm back!"

At this moment, Daohua's voice came into the room.

Mrs. Yan immediately smiled and said, "This girl is still so crazy!" Although her tone was blaming, her expression couldn't hide her pampering.

"Hey, everyone is here!"

As soon as Daohua entered the room, she looked a little surprised when she saw the room full of people.

Mrs. Li stepped forward and took Daohua's cloak: "Why did you end get out of class so early today?"

Daohua took Mrs. Li's arm and said, "Master Qin said that the end of the year is approaching, so let's review the previous lessons, so we don't have to stay in the classroom all the time."

Mrs. Yan nodded: "That's okay, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the class is freezing. I'm afraid that you will freeze, and the same is true of reading in the room."

That night, after dinner, Daohua helped Mrs. Li back to the main courtyard.

As soon as he went back, Pingtong handed a letter to Mrs. Li.

Daohua: "Whose letter is it?"

Mrs. Li smiled: "I'm sure your uncle wrote it. It's almost New Year's Eve. If you count the days, it's time for your grandparents' New Year's ceremony to arrive."

Daohua's eyes flashed: "Uncle? Is that the uncle who sends me flowers every year?"

When she was still in Yanjia Village, she would receive a box of flowers every year, but she was envious of the little girl in the clan.

Mrs. Li smiled and nodded: "Isn't that right?"

Daohua became interested: "Look, what did the uncle write in the letter?"

Mrs. Li: "It's nothing more than some common words to report safety and greetings."

Having said that, Mrs. Li started to open the envelope quickly, and the mother and daughter read the letter head to head.

"Mother, uncle cares about you very much."

"Nonsense, that's mother's brother, can you not care?"

"Mother, uncle brought me something again!"

"Most of the brocades in Fucheng are from the south of the Yangtze River. The quality is very good. It is almost impossible to buy them in our county. When the New Year's ceremony arrives, my mother will use the materials your uncle gave you to make some clothes for you."

"Okay, my mother will do it too, and my grandmother."

"Why, have you forgotten your father?"

"."

In the letter, my uncle didn't say anything else, it's just some very common household words, but from the lines, Daohua can feel that kind of brother's concern for his sister.

On the third day of receiving the letter, the Li family's New Year's gift really arrived, full of two carts of things.

Unfortunately, that day, Mrs. Li went out with Daohua to buy items for the New Year and was not at home.

Mrs. Li was not there, but Yan Zhigao just took a rest.

Looking at the generous New Year gift from the Li family, Yan Zhigao was satisfied.

Although the madam's family is a merchant, they have been helping them financially over the years. Of course, to a certain extent, they have also received the protection of his county magistrate.

Both of them can be considered as what they need.

During the New Year's ceremony, the cloth occupies a relatively large area and is placed on the top. Yan Zhigao thought about the New Year's Day, and every room must make clothes. Anyway, when the wife comes back, it will be distributed to each room, so he decides to directly distribute most of the materials. Scored.

Among them, two of the best brocades were given to the second room, one to the third room, and finally the rest were sent to Shuangxinyuan.

When Mrs. Li came back, she found that the brocade that her brother gave to the eldest daughter and the old lady to make clothes was gone, and she immediately turned black.
