Chapter 84

Rong'er was encouraged and spread her little hands. Bai Ruozhu gave her a few words of guidance. Rong'er's face lit up when she heard that, and she said that she would practice calligraphy well.

In fact, Bai Ruozhu was quite envious of Rong'er. When she was a child, her predecessor didn't even have a pen or paper to practice calligraphy. She practiced drawing strokes on the table with her fingers dipped in water.

Bai Ruozhu discovered that there were a few words on the paper that were not written by Ronger. The words were not very beautiful, but they were very straight. However, the writing was delicate and delicate. At first glance, it was written by a woman.

"Is your mother teaching you calligraphy?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

Ronger nodded and looked at Bai Ruozhu with admiration in her eyes, "Yes, sister Bai, how did you know? You're so amazing."

Bai Ruozhu pointed at those words, and Rong'er finally understood, and said with a smile: "My mother said that her handwriting is not good, so she asked me to practice hard to become good at handwriting."

Rong'er's wife looked introverted, but she didn't expect to be an educated person. Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but become interested, and after asking Rong'er a few questions, she found out that Rong'er's grandfather used to be a scholar. Rong'er's mother had learned to read when she was a child, but it's a pity that Rong'er's grandfather was in poor health and passed away early, and he failed to get any honors.

But after all, she is the daughter of a scholar, and she still hopes that her child will be literate. Bai Ruozhu agreed very much, nodded and said, "Rong'er, you should study hard. When you grow up, you can help your sister manage the accounts."

It was the first time Ronger heard someone say this to her, and she treated her like an adult. Her face turned slightly red with excitement, and she nodded vigorously and said, "Then it's agreed, I will study hard!"

Bai Ruozhu was sleepy now, and soon she had a fight with her eyes, so she squinted on Ronger's bed for a while. In the afternoon, Lin Ping'er took her to say goodbye to Ronger and her daughter. Ronger's mother originally wanted to keep the two of them for dinner, but But thinking that it would be too late for Bai Ruozhu to go back due to her heavy belly, she didn't force her to stay.

Bai Ruozhu and her daughter did not go home directly, but went to Fushou Hall. Bai Ruozhu planned to ask Dr. Liu to take a look.Speaking of this, Bai Ruozhu was a little annoyed. She learned Chinese medicine from her grandfather, but she didn't study obstetrics and gynecology properly at first, and she never really felt the belly of a pregnant woman, so she didn't even feel whether the baby was completely in the basin. I feel really ashamed if I don’t come out.

"It's already in the pot. It should be within the next seven or eight days. Go home and recuperate, and you will be strong when you give birth." Liu Baishuang touched Bai Ruozhu's belly and said coldly as before.

Already accustomed to Liu Baishuang's indifference, Lin Ping'er happily paid the consultation fee, politely said goodbye to Liu Baishuang, and helped Bai Ruozhu leave.

Originally, she kept talking about it every day, but now that she heard that there were still seven or eight days left, Bai Ruozhu suddenly became nervous again, and suddenly became silent on the way back.

Lin Ping'er noticed Bai Ruozhu's nervousness, held her hand and said, "Ruozhu, every woman has to go through this. The pain is certain, just grit your teeth and bear it and it will be fine."

People who have never given birth can never imagine how painful it is. Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but think of this sentence. She also couldn't imagine how painful it was, so she became nervous.Fortunately, she knows medical skills, and Dr. Liu has extraordinary medical skills, so she will feel confident when the time comes.

"Mom, I'm fine. With Dr. Liu helping to deliver the baby, what do you have to worry about? And my fetal position is right." Bai Ruozhu was afraid that her mother would be worried, so she comforted her mother in turn.

After the two of them got home, they briefly told Bai Yihong how they went to Zhang's house, and the family was ready to have dinner.Bai Yihong cooked dinner because he couldn't wait for Bai Ruozhu and his daughter to come back, and he couldn't bear that his wife and daughter had to work hard after returning home after a tiring day. However, there were not many men in Houshan Village who were willing to help their wives cook.

Although Bai Yihong's cooking skills are worse than Lin Pinger's, Bai Ruozhu is very happy. She is proud to have such a father. A man who loves his wife is a good man.

"By the way, Dad, I met Uncle Wang Feng when I came back from collecting firewood today. He asked me to tell you that I will go to the school for a meeting tomorrow. The village wants to choose a teacher for the school." Bai Zehao took two mouthfuls of rice and said.

Wang Feng is the eldest son of the village chief Wang Shugen. He is calm and capable. The elders in the village also think highly of him and intend to make him the new village chief in the future, taking over from the old village chief. "I also said that the table you made for your husband is really good." Bai Zehao said and laughed. The Bai family gave away all the tables and chairs they made for the school a few days ago. People who saw it at the time also praised it. Bai Yihong is good at his craftsmanship.

As soon as Bai Ruozhu heard this, she became energetic and asked, "Dad, do you know who the village chief and the others would like to invite as school teachers now?"

"I heard that there is an old scholar Wu Mengwei from Shuhai Village. His wife died early and left no children, and he did not want to remarry. So now he lives alone and is very poor, but his knowledge is good, his character, and They also have good tempers," Bai Yihong said.

Bai Ruozhu nodded. He who could not renew his relationship with his deceased wife was also a person who had a long-term love.

"The village said that if they invite him, they will arrange a place for him and let him take root in our village." Bai Yihong continued, "There is also a boy in the town. It is said that he used to be a gentleman to a wealthy family, but now he wants to retire and return to the countryside. That’s why we are interested in our village.”

"Is there anything else?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

Bai Yihong was a little helpless, "Someone also mentioned your uncle. It seems that your grandfather asked someone to help him mention it. They said that your uncle is also a boy. He is not sure that he will be a scholar in the provincial examination soon. He is also familiar with the village and his home is here. Can you still not give your best?"

Bai Ruozhu curled her lips and said, "Hmph, if he can really pass the examination as a scholar, he won't like teaching in the school anymore."

"Yeah, I think the uncle is not as knowledgeable as the second brother. If the second brother hadn't continued to take the exam for merit, he would definitely be much better at teaching than him." Bai Zehao also said angrily.

Bai Zepei's expression on the side was indifferent, as if he didn't care about Bai Yibo's teaching or not.

Bai Ruozhu touched her belly. Even if her son did not study in the village in the future, he was unlikely to be tortured by Bai Yibo, but she could not bear that the children in the village were finally able to study, but they fell in love with such a gentleman.

"Dad, you can't show favoritism. You still have to choose the most suitable person in this matter." Bai Ruozhu didn't say too bluntly, but just made a point.

Bai Yihong sighed and nodded slightly.

Not long after the meal, a guest came to the house, maybe not a guest, but rather an elder of the Bai family.

"Yihong, you now have some prestige in the village, and your two sons are promising again. Dad is also happy for you." Mr. Bai patted Bai Yihong on the shoulder and said seriously.

Bai Yihong was a little flattered. He had not received much attention from his father since he was a child. The old man spent almost all his energy on cultivating his eldest son.

"Dad, you're flattered, I'm still far behind." Bai Yihong smiled a little innocently, but he didn't see the obscure light in the old man's eyes.

Bai Ruozhu was sitting far away but could see clearly. She curled her lips secretly. The old man must have gone to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. This time he also knew how to play the family card.
