Crossing the old lady of the farm gate

Chapter 15 After Planning
Li Cui watched Bailan come out of Chen Yajiao's room, "Mother, is Yajiao awake, she really went."

"I woke up just now, but I choked on a few sips of water. Mulberry is a little hurt. I'll cook some porridge for her later. I vomited all over the room just now. I'll clean it up for her first."

"Mother, you go directly to make porridge for Yajiao, I'll clean it. My cooking skills are not as delicious as mother's."

"That's fine too, but be gentle, Yajiao fell asleep again."

"okay, I get it."

When the children and daughter-in-law of the Chen family heard the news from outside, they all put down their work and rushed back.

Li Xiaohe saw Bai Lan in the yard, "Mother, when I was in the field just now, I heard outsiders say that my little sister fainted and fell into the river, and she was brought back by the kid from the Qi family."

"Although it has been raining for the past two days, the sun is still quite poisonous today. He must have suffered from heat stroke. As a result, he passed by the small river and passed out in the river when he came back."

"Mother, is the little girl awake?"

"Just woke up, and now I'm asleep again, so please don't go in and disturb her, but Yajiao doesn't remember the past at all now."

Li Xiaohe couldn't believe it, "How could this happen?"

Wang Yuzhen said with a worried face: "Mother, do you want to invite Dr. Chen over to show my younger sister?"

"I don't need it for now. Yajiao just forgot about the past, and everything else is fine. She may have choked on a few sips later, and her throat is still a little sore. I just made some porridge for her, and now I'm warming it up in the pot. Give her a drink when she wakes up."

"Okay, the children have been working outside for a day. They are not as strong as you adults. The food is ready, and I will wait for you to come back to eat."

The three daughters-in-law of the Chen family had just washed and packed the hands of their children, and the three laborers of the Chen family also came back.

Chen Yunfan looked at Bai Lan who was busy in the yard and asked worriedly: "Mother, are you feeling better? If there is anything, you can just tell the three daughters-in-law, why don't you do it yourself?" Do it."

"All the injuries on my body are healed. Look at me, who is lively and jumping around, I don't look like an injured person. But your father's injuries are a little more serious than mine, so I need to take care of him for a few more days."

Chen Yunliang was also afraid that Bai Lan was trying to be brave, "Mom, you were injured so badly this morning, you should try to get as much rest as possible."

"Oh, you two don't have to worry too much, I know my body."

"By the way, after you have finished eating, pack up, and then everyone will gather in the yard. Let's discuss how our family will live in the future."

As the boss, Chen Yunfan was the first to express his opinion: "Mom, you and dad have the final say on our family's life. Whatever you say, we will follow. You are the backbone of our family."

The two brothers behind also nodded in agreement, agreeing with what Chen Yunfan said.

"Our Chen family is a big family. You also have your own small family. You have to plan for your own children. Now the eldest, Wen Jing, is nine years old and has not yet started to read and write. I think, everyone will work hard together. Send all the children to school, send them to read and write, not to mention let them come back with an examination, at least to read more, so as to save them from going to work outside and not knowing when they are cheated."

"Look for yourselves, which one of the shopkeepers in the town is not literate? How much do they pay? And how much are the wages of the illiterate juniors?"

"If the young ones are capable and smart enough to pass the exam, we will continue to let them take the exam. Anyway, everyone must read a little more. I don't ask them to be rich, at least not to be deceived by others. .”

"How many of the words on those contracts do you adults recognize?"

"Although the village head and the patriarch will help us to read and won't cheat us, but when you go outside to sign a work contract with others, do you have to find someone to show you, you can't understand it yourself, and they lie to you. You signed a contract of selling yourself and you don’t even know it.”

"The group of people sitting at the dinner table were very touched when they heard Bai Lan's words."

There are also a few more clever ones in the village who work as waiters in the restaurants in the town, and their monthly wages are quite a lot, but I heard from them that the wages of their shopkeepers are at least five taels of silver per month. There is absolutely no comparison between Xiao Er's.

After Bai Lan's words, everyone ate the food in their hands absent-mindedly, so that no one noticed that the taste of today's meal was different from the previous one.

The children at the next table were very happy when they heard that they would have the opportunity to go to school in the future.

Every time they see the village chief and his grandson often go to school in the town, they don't know how envious they are, but when they think that their family is almost out of food now, how can they have money to send them to school, so They are all envious of this idea.
