My whole family crosses the farm gate from the future

44 Ventilation
Now that the elders in front have also purchased ancestral land, the ancestral land in Wangjia Village has exceeded [-] mu, and the people in Wangjia Village are more confident.

The ancestral field plays a very important role. Mrs. Wang suffered from an epidemic when she was young, and her two children didn't get it. The sixth uncle's son in his prime also didn't get it.

Many people in Wangjia Village did not escape the epidemic that time, but thanks to the relief from the ancestral fields, the whole village survived again through hard work.

Everyone understands the importance of the ancestral fields. The land of the ancestral fields is worked together by the villagers, and no one can be lazy. During the spring plowing, Wang Yi came back to cultivate the ancestral fields.

The land of your own family is leased to others, but the whole village in Citian should work together, and those who quit or are lazy will be credited, so that your family will not come to ask for help if you have difficulties in the future.

In the afternoon, the patriarch held a clan meeting. Wen Wen and Zhou Hun were surrounded by the old lady and were not qualified to speak.

The patriarch specifically said that Wang Yi's family donated more than [-] acres of ancestral land, including a few acres of Susukida that the old man had donated when he left, and the total amount was indeed more than [-] acres.

It is also recorded in the genealogy. The clan members are very trustworthy and friendly to the Wang family. I have not forgotten the clan family when I am rich. I have built ancestral halls and cemeteries, invited martial arts masters, and bought ancestral fields. I spent a lot of money on the clan. .

People in Wangjia Village are envious of Wang Yi's money to buy tea garden land, but they are not jealous. They really think about the clan in their hearts, and everyone has benefited more or less, so why complain? They are all relatives with the same surname, and they see each other when they look down.

When the patriarch finished speaking, Wang Yi stood up under the signal of the patriarch, "I bought the ancestral land because our family has been taken care of by the clan over the years. I am also surnamed Wang. This is what I should do. I have this ability." , naturally want to give back to the clan.

Second, I often walk around the Lin's house, and I have learned a lot and seen a lot, and I have some insights.

There is one thing to say, compared with the Lin family, our Wang family is indeed inferior. The difference is not the official, but the background.

All the children in the Lin family, including girls, have to study, girls have to weave and be housekeepers, and boys have to study, farm and do household chores. They are not proficient in many things, but at least they are all superficial.And we can't do it yet.

If we want our children and grandchildren to be more promising, it is not enough to rely on one family to provide for them. The way to study in the imperial examination is only one of them, but not everyone can get fame, so what can other people do, what can they do to get ahead, we have to work hard think about it.

First of all, the number of ancestral fields is far from enough. This is the foundation of a family and the cornerstone of our cultivation of children and grandchildren.

It is not enough to have ancestral fields, we must open source, and I have many plans with the patriarch and elders, one of which is to let the girls also read and write.With these ancestral fields, girls can study without paying repair fees in the future.

I hope that everyone can seriously consider letting the girl in the family go to school for a few years, so that she can read and understand the truth, that is, relatives can talk about better marriages, and they can also praise their brothers and nephews.

For example, I got a lot of money from the Lin family, one good turned into two good, helping each other, the Wang family was able to take advantage of the wind. "

Zhuzi was the first to stand up, "I think what Brother Yi said is right, not all sons can get fame in studies, and other sons who can't get fame can do other things, but the good jobs outside have high wages. If you can read and write, you will count.”

"Yes, the girl next door in my natal family's village has good family conditions, she has been reading and learning, and she can marry well. She is the son of the landlord's family in the provincial capital. I heard that he was born as a child. She will be a housekeeper when she enters the house, and she will give it back to her brother. I found a good job as a bookkeeper."

"That's right, I studied in the clan when I was a girl. There are four brothers in my family. The family eats less food, which is relatively difficult. I was able to marry into the Wang family because my parents-in-law liked me to read and write.

Later, although my four elder brothers did not have any fame, because of their literacy, they all had more chances of finding a job than others, and after a few years they turned around.

Now I help the Lin family with shipping, and my two older brothers run a shop in the south, and life is very prosperous. The children are also studying, and one of them has achieved fame as a child.The two girls were also married to Juren, and they lived a pretty good life, at least their in-laws did not dare to bully them. "

Mrs. Wang smiled and told everyone about her own situation, and the comparison of decades before and after.

"Patriarch, do girls really not need money for studying?"

"Yes, it doesn't require money, and it doesn't delay my own work. There are four hours in the morning and evening. Girls are not as strict as sons, and they don't have to take the imperial examination. The main thing is to learn some principles."

The patriarch explained patiently.

"Oh, by the way, the Lin family told me, I asked the Lin family to help me find a foster nun in the palace, and come to the clan to teach the girls.

This is the nanny in the palace, and she teaches all the daughters of the capital, which is a matter of status.

Do you know how much she taught the girls in Beijing how much money they need? "

Mrs. Wang discussed with her son that it would be good for the whole Wang family to bring up the nanny to teach the girls together. The nanny can live in her own house without delaying Wenwen's ability to learn.

"How many?"

"I've heard that another family hired a nanny from the provincial capital for ten taels of silver a month. That family was a rich official who was going to marry to the capital, so she taught for three years."

Some relatives in the family have heard a little bit.

"Twelve years, darling, three years..."

An aunt counted how much it was with her fingers, and kept clicking her tongue.

"She is a nanny who came out of the palace. Miss Qianjin asked her to teach it. It is a good thing to have face and status. The monthly silver for nanny is 20 taels a month. She has the final say on how much time to teach.

Generally speaking, half a year is the deadline. After half a year, if she feels that your child is uneducated, she will find a reason to leave. There are still many families queuing up behind. "

"20 taels, auntie, how can we afford these 20 taels? If you want to let girls learn to read, we are willing. Now that the clan doesn't need girls' repair fees, we are naturally willing to send girls to study.

But these 20 taels are too much, and we can’t afford to share it. If I could afford it, I would have sent the girl to study a long time ago. My niece from my natal family can just marry if she can read and write. We are not stupid. "

The other aunts sighed helplessly. If they were rich, they would not have to wrong the girls. Their village didn't like to treat girls poorly. For several generations, the girls of the Wang family were the masters of the house, and this rule has not changed.

"We'll pay for the monthly money of the nanny, as long as you bring the girl here, don't hold back. But I don't want to work today, and I can't do it tomorrow if the girl is missing the soles of the shoes. In that case, my old lady will lose her mind."

Mrs. Wang said hello to everyone in advance. Anyway, they all have to pay for the same thing. Why don't you send them to the ethnology school to teach together.

If one sheep is to be chased, isn't a group of sheep to be chased as well, just give the mother some more money.

"You pay, so much money, this is not a matter of one or two months, how can it be enough to take advantage of others, we are sorry."

Auntie shook her head, it's someone else's business to have money, besides, brother Yi has never done anything wrong to his own people, so he can't catch a sheep and pull the wool hard.
