MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 458 Candidate list
Yun Niang’s family was so frightened that Chun Yu fell into the water. After working hard all day, they suddenly remembered that the child’s savior had not yet thanked them.
So the next day, Liu Guolang and Yun Niang waited until Yin Le came home from work in the middle of the afternoon, then came to the door with a thank-you gift and thanked him personally.
An old hen, a bag of brown sugar, and half a basket of eggs are all used to nourish Yin Le's body.
Mother-in-law Yun Niang said that the river water was dirty and cold, and she didn’t know if it froze the girl.
Women will be in trouble if they lose Qi and blood, and they must make up for it, otherwise they will feel bad about it.
Yin Le usually doesn't have much interaction with the manager Qiao Yun, that is, when they go to the cafeteria to eat, because they are both women, they just listen to a few gossips in their free time.
After the Chunyu incident, Yun Niang would come over to take care of her from time to time, which made Yin Le feel flattered.
Hurryly said it was nothing, and she had already received the thank you gift and paid off.
Yun Niang knows that she likes to be alone, so she no longer cares so blatantly.
It's just that she can't be clear about this matter in her heart.
Without Yin Le's hesitant jump, she simply couldn't imagine the outcome.
As for that one son, if he could not survive, she would never survive either.
From Yun Niang’s point of view, Yin Le saved not only the life of her son Chunyu, but also the lives of their entire family!
At Qin Yao's house, Liu Merchant also sent two packets of brown sugar to thank Awang for his timely intervention in snatching Chunyu out of the gate of hell.
A Wang said you’re welcome and hid while carrying the two packets of brown sugar.
He is not used to dealing with this, and always feels that if it involves too much, it will bring trouble to others.
Qin Yao received Liu Goodman and invited him into the house to sit and drink a bowl of tea and eat some snacks. By the way, he was concerned about the recovery of Xia Chunyu.
“It’s good now. It’s just that the first night when I woke up, I was frightened out of my mind and made him scream all night. At dawn the next day, he was full of life again.”
Liu Guolang smiled when he spoke, but he couldn't help being afraid in his heart.
He said a little angrily: "These little kids in the village keep saying they can't go into the river and get into trouble every year, but none of them really listen."
"It would be nice if there was a place to hold them. Otherwise, after this time, my heart is pounding from time to time, and so is his mother. I have been doing things these past two days, and whenever I hear the sound of water, I feel like "Exciting spirit."
Qin Yao felt that Yun Niang was having a psychological shadow, and suggested that Liu Guolang go back and ask Chun Yu and his grandmother to find a goddess to help calm her down.
There is no psychiatrist here to help with counseling. If you want to remove the shadow, asking the goddess to perform a dance is the most effective way.
Liu Guolang hadn’t paid much attention to his wife’s auditory hallucinations at first, but now that he heard what Qin Yao said, he felt that the situation might be more serious than he thought, so he hurriedly responded.
"I'll go back and ask his grandma." Liu Guolang had something on his mind at the moment and couldn't sit still for a moment. He refused Qin Yao's polite invitation to stay for dinner and got up to leave.
Before leaving, he suddenly asked Qin Yao: "Sister-in-law, the village has finalized the list, and they are going to call the whole village at the ancestral hall to vote for the person in the next two days. Do you know?"
Qin Yao asked curiously: "What list?"
"You don't know!" Liu Guolang was a little surprised, but he quickly explained: "The village is selecting a shortlist for the new village chief."
Liu Guolang chuckled, a bit teasingly, "Someone also wrote my third brother's name on it."
Seeing Qin Yao’s strange expression after hearing this, Liu Guolang guessed:
"I guess the villagers reported the number randomly to gather the number of people. If I had known it could be like this, we would have reported your name, third sister-in-law, too. It's a pity."
Liu Guolang suddenly paused, apologized and bowed his hands to Qin Yao, and said goodbye.
What he regrets, needless to say, Qin Yao also knows. It's a pity that she is a woman. It has been passed down from generation to generation in Liujia Village to this day, but no woman has been able to be on the candidate list.
Of course, there is no such precedent not only in Liujia Village, but also in the entire Kaiyang County and even the entire Zijing Mansion.
Looking at Liu Guolang's retreating back, Qin Yao remembered the complicated expression that the old man looked at her when she faced the village chief.
At this moment she finally understood, and probably wanted to say to her: What a pity you are not a manly man.
Qin Yao shrugged, it didn’t matter.
However, the incident of children in the village always carrying adults on their backs into the river rang a warning in her heart.
Children don’t go to school or go to the fields. They just roam around in the mountains and fields. No matter how careful they are, something will happen to them.
The school in this village must be built as soon as possible.
There is also a publicity that strictly prohibits going into the river during the rainy season. It must be deeply rooted in the hearts of the whole village, old and young, so that everyone can pay attention to it and form mutual supervision.
In this way, when she is not at home, she does not have to worry about whether the four elder brothers and sisters at home will secretly go to the river to play in the water and have an accident.
To achieve the purpose of publicity, the school is the best medium.
However, what makes Qin Yao feel a little relieved is that the four children in her family are much more sensible and considerate than the disobedient naughty eggs in the village.
At least so far, the four siblings have not secretly violated all her instructions.
Qin Yao was thinking about building a school, and started to use her own abacus to calculate how much collective funds the clan leader currently had.
The batch of wolf skins was sold by Mr. Liu a year later. She had already tricked them into selling them, and they sold them for twenty-four or two or three yuan of silver.
In addition, there was wolf meat sold before New Year's Eve, because it was sold to various villages. It was sold at a low price of twelve coppers per catty, earning nine liang and six yuan of silver.
From the beginning of the year until May is approaching, the village has not done any major collective events, which means that not a penny of the money has been spent.
Including the rent from her stationery factory, we have about forty taels of public funds!
Forty taels of silver, no doubt a huge sum of money.
If the village encounters a disaster, all the money will be used to buy grain and distribute it to all the villagers. Each person can get dozens of kilograms, which is enough to tide over a famine.
To build a school, the artificial village will cost no money. It only requires 20 to 30 taels of building materials and 20 to 30 taels of carpentry for tables and chairs.
Tatou is an enlightenment book that is difficult to buy with money.
This is why Song Zhang has been encouraging villages and towns to build new schools, but so far no village has dared to take this step.
It is difficult to study, not because there are no schools, but because there is a monopoly on knowledge, there are no books, and there are no teachers.
But books are not a problem now. I have the enlarged version of the manuscript at Qin Yao’s house, so I am safe!
As for the master, the county magistrate will help arrange it. In this way, the time is ripe for building a school.
But just when Qin Yao was excitedly preparing to discuss with the clan leader with the school construction plan, the bell at the entrance of the ancestral hall rang.
It is not about paying taxes or collecting corvee, but convening all the villagers to elect the next new village chief.
