I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 72 Debt Collection

"You are...Cheng'er? Come in quickly and tell grandma, how do you know if there is a husband available?"

When Ning Pengpeng saw that little head, he was taken aback for a moment before remembering that this is the daughter of the elder family.

A kind smile appeared on his face, and he waved to Ning Cheng'er.

Seeing this, Ning Cheng'er became a little more courageous, ran in stompingly, leaned next to Ning Pengpeng, and stared at her admiringly.

"Dad was helping my younger brother find a husband in the town before, and originally agreed that only two taels of silver would be enough for a year.

However, later, because Mr. Chen seemed to have broken his leg, the matter fell through! "

The private school in the town was run by a person who raised people, but he didn't teach in the private school, but hired the talented scholar to teach the children who needed to be enlightened.

After all, it is really overkill for him to teach these four or five-year-old children as a dignified man.

And the reason why those scholars are willing to come to the private school to teach is naturally because the salary given by the private school is satisfactory every year.

In addition to the private school, each scholar can also choose a student with the qualifications he likes to teach in the private school for free.

In fact, this is equivalent to private schools allowing these teachers who teach children to make extra money.

After all, it is impossible for the teacher to teach for free. As for how much to charge, it is the teacher's own ability, and the private school will not care.

When Ning Youzhi heard Ning Cheng'er say this, he frowned immediately.

"Since the gentleman broke his leg, how can he come to our village to teach?"

Saying it means not saying it.

Ning Pengpeng was thoughtful, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

"If our family can send someone to take care of the husband's daily life, and make a pushable wheelchair for the husband to sit in, this Mr. Chen should have no worries, right?"

After all, since Mr. Chen would accept students for two taels of silver, he must be short of money.

Now that he has broken his leg and lives at home, not to mention his limited mobility, he has also lost his wages, so he must be more and more short of money.

As long as the Ning family can solve his inconvenience, the matter will naturally be solved!
"Yes, my aunt is really thoughtful."

Ning Youzhi's eyes lit up all of a sudden, he exchanged a glance with Ning Pengpeng, and then looked at Ning Cheng'er.

"Cheng'er, where's your father?"

"Daddy went to the land with the second uncle, and he said that now that he is back, he has to know where his land is."

Ning Cheng'er replied softly.

Hearing her words, Ning Pengpeng raised her eyebrows.

Unexpectedly, this little girl looked timid and timid like a toothless rabbit, but in fact, she was quite thoughtful.

However, she looks like a flattering personality, and I am afraid that the real life in her grandfather's house is not as good as Liu's said!
"Aunt, then continue to eat breakfast slowly, and I will go to the field to find Blessing."

After Ning Youzhi finished speaking to Ning Pengpeng, he ran away.

If the husband's affairs are done earlier, the children in the village can also be settled earlier.

Ning Youfu followed Ning Youlu and nodded in satisfaction when he saw the Ziying planted in the good land.

After all, this Ziying can not only be cut up and fried to eat, but also chopped up and fed to chickens, pigs, and cattle.

Even after digging the ground, burying these Ziying grass in the soil will make the land more fertile.

"Brother, I didn't move your acre of dry land. I want our new houses to be built on that dry land, all in one place!

Because I was afraid that you would repent and want to build it, so I didn't plant anything on that acre of dry land, so as not to waste seeds.

After reading this, I will take you to our new house to have a look. "

Speaking of the new house, Ning Youlu's face was shining.

From the dug foundation, the wall was built up little by little, and now it has been built to a height of more than two meters!
Originally, in Ning Youlu's opinion, the height of two meters was almost enough to cover the roof, but he didn't expect his mother to ask the mason to build the wall to a height of more than three meters.

In this way, it will cost a lot of money.

However, Mother made such a request, of course she had her reasons.

Seeing the second child like this, Ning Youfu couldn't help feeling a little sour.

Even the always silly second child has built a new house, but he still has nothing.

I wanted to buy a house in the town before, but where is the money so easy to earn?

After working in Yue's family for so many years, he didn't save much money.

Thinking that the only silver that his family holds now is the two taels of silver that his mother gave him when the family was separated, and the three taels of silver that he got from selling sugar cane yesterday.

For a moment, Ning Youfu felt that he had failed so badly!

When he was feeling lost, he heard Li waving his hands and calling his name in the distance.

"Blessed, I found you! Your daughter said, where does the husband you found for your son live in the town? Can you take me there?"

"Ah... ah?... sir?"

Ning Youfu looked at Lizheng who was running in front of his eyes, first he was confused by the question, and then he came to his senses.

"You mean...Mr. Chen?"

"Yes, yes, your daughter seems to be talking about the gentleman surnamed Chen, who said that he broke his leg a few days ago?"

Ning Youzhi nodded repeatedly, fixed his eyes on Ning Youfu, and was relieved when he saw him nodding.

"But Mr. Chen broke his leg half a month ago, and it's not easy to walk. What's the use of looking for him?"

Ning Youfu's words just happened to be heard by Ning Pengpeng who called Ning Lao San to drive an ox cart to pick Ning Youzhi and Ning Youfu to the town.

"Teaching and educating people uses the mouth, not the legs. What nonsense, hurry up and get in the car."

Although it took a hundred days to hurt his muscles and bones, Mr. Chen's leg was broken and he estimated that he would not be able to walk for at least several months.

Now it is estimated that the legs and feet cannot move, but when the school in the village is completed, it is estimated that Mr. Chen will be able to walk on crutches, which is just right!
Of course, even if she doesn't walk with a cane, she can also design a wheelchair, isn't it just adding two rollers under the chair!
Haven't eaten pork, haven't seen a pig run yet?
In a small alley on Anzhen West Street, a plump, middle-aged lady was standing at a door, cursing in the shape of a teapot.

"I have seen poor people, but I have never seen such poor people, and he is a scholar who knows how to read and respect!
Pooh, my skin is thicker than that city wall.

The rent owed is delayed day by day, how long do you want to delay?

Let me tell you, if you want to blame me, Cai Jinhua, go ahead and dream!
Today, if your family doesn't pay the rent, this matter will never end. "

Then I heard a woman's voice, lowering her voice, begging bitterly.

"Ms. Cai, my husband broke his leg, so he can't go to teach these days, that's why he missed your rent.

I also hope that you have a large number of adults. If you allow some more time, I will definitely go to Duoduo to pick up the laundry and return the rent to you. "

"Repay it? How long will it take for you to pay back the rent if you do the laundry?

Let me tell you, Mrs. Xie, you have to call out your husband-in-law, and let's talk about it in front of the big guys, that a gentleman who is a scholar owes me rent for a woman's house. "
