Nongmen eldest sister: Farming and opening shops

Chapter 8 Persuading Reading

Lin Qinghe carried the hatchet and took Lin Qingsong to the back mountain together.

Lin Qingbai changed into dry clothes, and when he came out, he came out with a book in his hand, and his eyes fell on Lin Qingmiao.

"Third brother, what do you think I am doing? If you want to study, you can study!" She looked left and right, then took out the vegetables under the eaves, and began to choose.

In this way, she will be busy with other things, so there is no need to drag her to study together!
With that in mind, Lin Qingbai moved a small stool and sat down beside her: "My eldest sister said that people who don't study will become stupid. You are not smart. If you don't study, let me think about it. It might become like that idiot in the village next door."

That idiot is quite famous in the village, because he would run over from home after a while, beat up children when he saw them, and stuff them in his mouth after grabbing dirt, so stupid that he couldn't see.

Lin Qingmiao thought about it, if she became like that...

Suddenly there was a shock, it was terrible.

But after thinking about it carefully, I realized something was wrong: "Third brother, don't fool me. There are many people in the village who can't read or write, and I haven't seen everyone become stupid."

"I haven't become stupid, but I'm not smart either." Lin Qingbai glanced at her and said, "Do you think people who study in the village are more respected?"

Zhaojia Village is not very rich, but most of the people live a decent life, so there are a few scholars. As for whether they are well-educated, only they know for themselves. Anyway, none of them have achieved fame so far.

Lin Qingmiao thought about what he said, and felt that it made sense. Scholars looked very different. Even if a grumpy person walked in front of them, he would restrain himself consciously.

"It's a little different, but if you want to say how smart they are, don't you see where the smartness is?" She said a little seriously.

"It can make people respect from the bottom of their hearts. This is their cleverness."

Lin Qingmiao always felt that his words were not quite right, but she couldn't find any faults. After thinking for a while, she raised her head and asked, "If I study, can Wang Qiuhe be more refined in front of me? Scold me at every turn."

Lin Qingbai said with a gloomy expression, "Did she scold you?"

"Not only scolded me, but also pulled my hair. I can't beat her." She said sullenly: "Don't tell the elder sister, if the elder sister is angry and beats Wang Qiuhe, Wang Butcher will come to trouble us later."

I have already weighed it in my heart. With Butcher Wang's size and the ferocity with which he kills pigs, the four brothers and sisters of his family will not be their opponents if they go up together, so let's bear with it.

"I know, I won't tell Eldest Sister." Lin Qingbai nodded, Eldest Sister has worked hard enough to support her family, so don't tell her to worry about these things.

"Have you told your mother about this?"

Lin Qingmiao shook her head: "My mother is going to marry into the Wang family, and we will be a family with Wang Qiuhe from now on. Before she said she would take me there, she kept letting me go there. Be obedient, don't tell her if she is unhappy, she Should I scold Wang Qiuhe or beat her?"

Since there is nothing he can do, why bother to tell her this.

"It would be great if Dad was here, and I don't have to be afraid of Wang Qiuhe."

"Father is gone, we have to rely on ourselves in the future." Lin Qingbai looked outside the courtyard gate, but there was nothing there, and the person he was looking forward to appearing never disappeared.

"I know, so I will also help the family with work, and I won't eat free rice."

Lin Qingbai glanced at her and shook his head: "Don't take what others say, you always remember it like this, as if you take her very seriously, she is not an important person to us, just listen to her A gust of wind will do the trick.”

"I don't want to remember, but as soon as I close my eyes, I can see her scolding me viciously, saying that I am a freelancer, that I am a drag, and I don't want to be a drag, but I just haven't grown up yet. Well."

It would be great if she could grow up quickly, so that she could do all kinds of work, and no one would dislike her as a drag.

"So, because your head is still empty, you can remember other people's swearing words for so long. You should read more and fill your brain with knowledge. Not only will you be smarter, but you will not be able to squeeze out those unpleasant words." into your head."

Hearing his words, she felt a little discouraged again: "What's so good about studying? My mother has also studied, but she is not smart at all. She left her own child alone and went to raise other people's children." Thinking about her feel silly.

Moreover, the children of the Wang family are not good-looking, and they have a bad temper. They always bully the children in the village.

Listening to her words, Lin Qingbai's expression became more gloomy. After a long silence, he said: "That's her choice, and we don't care about it. Don't think about these things in the future. Think about it too much. , the only one who suffers is myself.”

He didn't want to be separated from his mother, and wanted to be with her, but she refused. He knew it was because the Wang family didn't agree. He brought a girl there, who could help the family with work, and could exchange a gift when he grew up. Boy It's different, eat a lot, whether to help marry a wife when you grow up.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that it was not a good choice to go to Wang's family. Wang Butcher's family were not good-tempered. He was weak and couldn't do much work. If he went with him, he would only be bullied.

Even so, he still wanted to follow his mother, but she didn't take him.

"Third brother, mother is gone, are you sad?" Lin Qingmiao realized later that his emotions were not right.

"In the beginning, yes, I thought the sky was going to fall, but now it's all right. There's still my elder sister, my second brother, and you at home. In fact, it doesn't seem to make any difference." Lin Qingbai turned his head and smiled at her. .

"Yes, there is actually no difference." After thinking for a while, he said, "Eldest sister said, if you miss your mother, you can visit her. Anyway, they are all in the village, not far away."

Lin Qingbai shook his head: "I have something to do too. I don't have time. If my mother is interested, she will come back to see us."

What are you going to do at Wang's house? Do you want to see the faces of Wang's family? He's going, and the designated family thinks he's here to beg for food.

"What are you busy with?" Lin Qingmiao was puzzled.

"Read books, read more and become smarter, and you can think clearly about everything." Then I won't worry about it anymore.

Lin Qingmiao nodded: "That's fine, third brother, you can start reading, and I'll listen to it."

Lin Qingbai reached out and patted her on the head: "Eldest sister said let me teach you how to read. After you can read, you can read by yourself."

"Isn't studying a delay in work, third brother, you should read it yourself. Besides, only men can go to the test of merit. I can't go. It's not very useful to read."

Lin Qingbai looked at her helplessly, said so much, but didn't listen to a single word, thought for a while, and said: "Didn't you say that Wang Qiuhe bullied you? As far as I know, she doesn't know a single word. If you could read, wouldn't you be better than her?"

Lin Qingmiao immediately raised her head: "It makes sense!" She couldn't beat Wang Qiuhe, but she was happy to be able to beat her in other places.
