Chapter 18 Xiaozhu decided to go to school
"You're serious. But why are you so clear? I've never met you before." Bai Zhengsong was very excited when he heard this. You must know that there was only one ancestor in the Bai family, and no one was ever selected as a scholar. Each family also provides for their offspring to go to school, but no one has achieved fame, and now only the eldest grandson of the third bedroom has a child's name on his head.

So don't look at it as a big family but it's not easy to live. If the small pillars come true, the Bai family will rise to a higher level.

"Well, don't forget that I have a little grandson, Xiaowen, who used to play with him before going to school. I usually taught him a few words, and he taught Xiao Zhuzi later on, saying that Xiao Zhuzi remembered it much faster than him. I just paid attention to it. Later, Xiaowen was brought home and taught him to write, and his understanding is even inferior to me." The village chief said, and Xiao Zhuzi was already blushing from the village chief's words.

"I'll remember this, don't worry. Thank you, brother." Bai Zhengsong got up and saluted.

"Okay, sour or not, it's a good thing for the people in the village to have a leader living in the same village." The village chief hurriedly stepped aside and said.

On the other side, Li Zifeng threw the charcoal and raised his head and said: "According to the size and all the materials you provided, it is 35 taels of silver. If you use glutinous rice pulp, you need to add another 50 taels, and if you use labor, you need to add [-] taels." A meal at noon will cost at least [-] taels. You see how you plan, if you build a brick house, I know a kiln that can save you some taels of silver, but not much."

"What do you think, girl?" Bai Zhengsong walked over and looked at the drawing. The size of the house is really not small. There are five main rooms, three wing rooms on the east and west sides, and three rooms on the south side, which is quite a lot.

"Then let's build a brick and tile house, and use glutinous rice to cover it once and live in it. Don't worry, I still have some things that I can go to the town to exchange for some money for our living expenses." Bai Jingwen replied.

"Okay, let's do it. I'm the person who notifies me. I even went to order bricks and tiles in the cellar. Tomorrow is an auspicious day and I just start working. I'm really not used to resting at home these days." Seeing her making a decision, Li Zifeng laughed He patted the table and said.

"Alright then, let's see when I'll give you the money." Bai Jingwen asked.

"When the first batch of bricks arrives tomorrow, I'll let their tent come over." Li Zifeng said that he didn't want to let go of the money.

"Okay, I'm relieved when it's over. There are still many things at home. This is a gift from the girl, so you can have fun." Bai Zhengsong took out the snacks and put them on the table with the two children. Then he went out.

On the way, Bai Zhengsong told Bai Jingwen about Xiao Zhuzi's entry into the school. After hearing this, Bai Jingwen felt that it would be good for him to go to school if it was really that material.

"Grandpa, do you know how much it costs a year?" Bai Jingwen knew that the imperial examinations in ancient times were very expensive.

"Well, five or six taels a year was enough for a scholar, but I don't know what happened after that," Bai Zhengsong said.

"Well, if I can afford it, let him go with the school in autumn if we accept another student." Bai Jingwen replied.

"Okay, just spend more money on the things you want to buy at the beginning, and if you don't have enough, you can come to me." Bai Zhengsong said.

"Thank you, Grandpa, but I think it should be ok. I will go to you if it is not enough." Bai Jingwen said.

On the way home, Xiao Zhuzi was obviously much happier. He wanted to go to school, but he never mentioned it because of family reasons.Since he has that brainpower, so what can she do for him, to be honest, now she feels that even the richest man in this dynasty can afford it.

Back then, most of those who had space used to pretend to be food. She had a lot of space, so she threw everything into it. Gold and silver jewelry stores, jade stores, tonic stores and other high-end stores in shopping malls were all snapped up. Now there are a lot of them in the space. What's more, there are still a large number of medicinal materials in the space.

Not long after Bai Jingwen got home, she built the house vigorously, and it was a brick and tile house. For a while, only envy, jealousy and hatred remained.As for Hate, who is from her hometown, no one thought that she could earn so much. For the first time, they regretted that they separated the second room and the whole family early.

The Jiang family siblings seem to be much more sensible, and they are obedient to do some work within their ability.As for what Bai Jingwen was thinking in her heart, she didn't care at all.

Because the matter of the house was entrusted to Li Zifeng and Bai Zhengsong, they didn't make trouble because of their status in the village.Every day at noon, ten catties of pork are stewed with a big pot of vegetables and whole wheat steamed buns. There is no need to worry about people being lazy, otherwise they will definitely be beaten by gangs.

It was Daji again. Bai Jingwen went to the market with the prey and the herbs collected these days on a small pillar.

"Sister, let's go to Huichuntang. I heard from Dr. Li in the village that their price is the most reasonable." Xiao Zhuzi said after arriving at the market.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." After Bai Jingwen finished speaking, she inquired all the way to Huichuntang.It was only then that Bai Jingwen realized that the place where the embolus was located last time was Huichun Hall.

"The girl is here, she is here to get the medicine for the boy last time." The old doctor said after seeing them come in and recognize them.

"Yes, but at the same time I want to sell some medicinal materials. I wonder if you will accept them?" Bai Jingwen took out the two bags of medicinal materials she had prepared and said.

"This medicinal material is not bad, have you entered the deep mountain?" After opening it, the old doctor found that it was Gastrodia elata and Rhizoma Polygonatum.

"Well, I heard that Dr. Li in our village said that your price is fair, so I came here." Bai Jingwen replied.

"Little girl is brave enough. Although you don't have many, they are all precious medicinal materials. Wait for me and I will call our pharmacist." The old doctor said.

After a while, a tall, fat man in his 40s came in, pointed at the bag and said, "Is this the medicine?"

"Yes, Lao Li, help me to see if I am not as knowledgeable as you after all." The old doctor said.

"Old Zhao is being modest, isn't he?" The pharmacist Lao Li gently poured the medicinal materials on the table beside him, and divided them one by one. After a while, he divided them into seven or eight portions.

Then we weighed each of them and said: "I divide them according to the year, and the price varies according to the size. The cheapest gastrodia elata is this kind of one hundred yuan a catty, and the most expensive is this kind of five taels of silver per catty." .

As for sealwort, which is slightly more expensive, the cheapest one is two hundred Wen a catty.The most expensive one is eight taels of silver per catty. "Old Li replied.

"Okay, then please do the calculation." Bai Jingwen knew that these medicinal materials were relatively old, but she didn't expect the price to be okay.

"It's 14, two or three hundred dollars in total." Lao Li picked up the abacus and finally concluded.

Bai Jingwen nodded and settled the money. She was about to go out but was stopped by Lao Li.
