Chapter 9

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, so she took out the candle she hadn't used for a long time from the cabinet and lit it, and carefully flipped through the book, seeing the lines of square words made her heart warm.There are still a few years before the resumption of the college entrance examination, she must study hard.She really wanted to copy the words, but she didn't have a pen, and even if she had a pen, she couldn't bear to write in her only old notebook.

Guixiang spent the whole night thinking about how to get herself a pen tomorrow, and she finally figured out a way the next morning.There is still some unused lime in the back of her house, and when I picked it up, I could write white characters on the black cloth.

The start of school is approaching, but Shan Fuman still hesitates to express his opinion, Li Hongying disagrees.

That day, Shan Fuman finished his work and was rushing home. On the way, he ran into Guixiang's grandfather.After the death of his big-eyed wife, the relationship between him and the old man has always been close.

Old man Xu spoke first: "Go to my place and have a drink."

Shan Fuman handed the bag in his hand to the apprentice next to him, and went to his husband's house by himself.

After a few glasses of wine, the old man Xu cried: "My poor girl left early. A few days ago, I saw the girl of the Ma family kid laughing at our lack of education. I was so angry that I couldn't eat for a few days."

"Father, I'm also worried about this..." Shan Fuman was also full of bitterness.

The old man Xu filled his stomach with a glass of wine and said, "You don't need to call me daddy, my daughter is gone, how can you be your daddy?"

"I'm also thinking about letting Gui Xiang go to school, but what's the use of going to school these days?" Shan Fuman also drank a cup.

"Hmph, I don't know if it's worth going to school, but who in the past was illiterate? Besides, isn't your family in Guiping also studying? After all, you are afraid of Guiping's mother. My poor Guixiang What kind of life are you living... You see, why don't you put Guixiang here to raise her, and I will let her study, so you don't have to be told by your wife."

"Father, Guiping is a boy after all." Shan Fuman was very uncomfortable with a chopstick stuck in his throat.

"Boys don't plant the land, but let us girl dolls to plant the land... I saw that Gui Xiang's face was sunburned, and a child without a mother is not as good as a man with a mother. Why did my poor girl do that?" You left so early?" Old man Xu said while wiping away his tears, which made Shan Fuman's eyes sour.

Shan Fuman poured a large glass of wine into his stomach and said, "Father, stop crying. I will never delay Guixiang's going to school."

The old man Xu got his son-in-law's guarantee, and hurriedly picked up some vegetables for him: "Don't patronize drinking, it will hurt your health, eat vegetables and vegetables."

Shan Fuman walked home along the only gravel road in Shuitang Village. Li Hongying had just finished washing her hair.

Shan Fuman found a towel and wiped the water from her hair, "Hongying, after thinking for a long time, I still want Guixiang to go to school. Maybe it's not a bad thing for a female doll to be a little educated. Look at the young people who are educated." Aren’t there a lot of girl dolls? Firstly, Guixiang’s mother died early, so I feel a little guilty towards her. Secondly, our two sons and daughters in our family will be intellectuals so that we can help each other. The work I do now, When Guixiang gets married, isn't it all from Guiping?"

Li Hongying didn't speak, she lowered her head and clasped her fingers.

Seeing that she was wavering, Shan Fuman quickly said: "I originally saved a lot of dowry for Guixiang, and then I will give half of it to Guiping."

"I don't care about this..." She did have selfish intentions, Shan Fuman was too kind to his daughter, and her status in Guiping was a bit embarrassing.

"Whether you care about it or not, I have a steelyard in my heart. Guiping is my baby bump. Guixiang is also my only daughter, and I don't want dolls to rely on the sky like us. When the time comes, Guixiang will marry well." People, we in Guiping don't have to worry." Shan Fuman knocked the tobacco pot on the yellow mud wall vigorously, his bright eyes were smeared with hope.

"Although our family is better than other families, we can only support Guixiang to finish elementary school."

"Okay, we won't be able to read it in the future." Shan Fuman also had this plan, and asked Zai Guixiang to learn the craft, and the sewing machine would be good. Who doesn't wear clothes these days?

"Then I'll go to the school tomorrow. Hongxi's wife and I had a good time when we were young. At that time, we used to graze cattle on the same field. It just so happened that the teacher was from her natal family. It shouldn't be difficult for multiple people to go to school. "

When Shan Fuman heard this, she was in a good mood, and found a wooden grate to help her comb her hair.
