Chapter 74 Compensation
"Hey~, I'll follow Mother's arrangement."

Du Shi was overjoyed, it was a waste of energy to open up wasteland, and he had to eat dry food, and the food stock at home was almost used up.

No matter what Bai Yunxi planned, Bai Yunsong was satisfied.

When I got home, I helped the old man to sit on the bamboo chair, and poured him a glass of water, "Dad, you rest, my son has something to do."

"Yun Song, you stay here for a while."

The old patriarch knocked the dry pipe on the leg of the chair, refilled it with shredded tobacco, lit it, and took a few puffs.

The thick smoke made him cough.

"Father, please stop smoking, your throat can't stand it." Soil smoke is strong, and after years of exposure, teeth and nails are yellowed.

"Let's not talk about me first, what do you think, there is also the paper made by Yunxi girl, two pennies, ahem... why are you letting Yunxi girl hold your handle?"

"Father, my cousin is incapable of managing the private school now, and she knows it well. The document is nothing more than to let us take care of one or two in the future. I understand, and she understands it. She has no guts to announce the document to the public, unless she doesn't care about it." Xiao Wu's road to the imperial examination."

As for the private school, they are indeed a bit difficult.

But the cousin's husband is gone, and the private school can only fail in their hands because of the orphan and widow of the cousin.

As the next head of the Lizhenghe clan of the Bai family, the private school is their glory, and he can't just sit back and watch his cousin shut down due to poor management.

He will use other methods to make up for what he owes his cousin.

But private school, he is bound to win.

"Father, I will ask Anbang to send two buckets of brown rice and one bucket of black noodles to my cousin later, as compensation for them."

Right now, food is what they need most to sustain life, and everything else can be put aside.

When he was young, he studied with his uncle all the time, and later dealt with his cousin-in-law. As for the cousin, a girl, he didn't take it to heart.

Everyone said that her fate was good, her father was a scholar, and the official was a juren, so her fate was indeed not bad.

A peasant girl, sometimes rich and powerful, can't bear it, and can only end in dismay in the end.

The old patriarch listened to his son's arrangement, thought about it, nodded,

"It's also good to send some food there for emergency. You can't really starve them. Just do as you plan, and take care of them in the future, and you can be considered worthy of your uncle."

"Father, don't worry, after all, we are family members. If you don't let your son go, it's okay to show kindness appropriately. If they want to use a private school as a cocoon, it's their own cleverness.

The house was quiet, Baiyunxi organized his belongings, and took Yaya to the river to go fishing again.

Taking advantage of the hot weather, catch a few more fish and dry them to make dried salted fish, which is not bad for stews in winter.

The weather was fine today, Baiyunxi took Yaya to find the shade of a tree and sat down, hung the bait, put it into the water, and waited for the fish to take the bait.

After fishing with Baiyun River for two days, the little girl Yaya also knew not to speak loudly, otherwise she would scare the fish away. Fortunately, she prepared a lollipop, which can pass the time by licking it from time to time.

The grandparent and grandson stared at the fishing rod, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

"Huh~, have you heard that the widow at Baiyunxi sends her sons to open up wasteland in the back mountain every day?"

"Why haven't I heard of it? It's been open for two days, and it's still halfway up the hillside. If you ask me, the Bai family is really ignorant. The hillside can't hold water, and the soil is so barren that you will die of drought." .”

"Actually, I don't blame her. We have to eat and drink at home on weekdays. How can we use her to work in the fields? It's still a question of whether we can distinguish the crops and seedlings."
