Lucky Girl: Take the Space To Escape From the Famine

   Chapter 50 Running a School

   Yin Bowen, who was sitting in the backyard chopping wood, agreed immediately after hearing this.

   "If you can get some food or silver taels for the family, I don't think it's a bad thing."

   Yin Bowen indicated that Zhen Shi didn't need to mind, he knew that his wife was also thinking of himself.

   "Well, there really isn't a teacher in Changling Village. It's better for the second brother to be this teacher."

   Yin Chengyun originally said unintentionally, but Yin Bowen listened to it.

   Mr. Teach... This is the only thing that doesn't require a lot of legs.

   "Bowen is going to start a school?"

   After returning from Yin Bowu, who was going out with Wei Li, he asked in surprise, this is a good thing.

   "Brother, this is just an idea for the time being. If the people in the village are unwilling to come to study, this school will not be able to open."

Looking at Yin Bowen, who was so inferior to Tanhualang, he didn't feel good about it, and he immediately said: "Second brother, don't worry, I'll go talk to Wei Lizheng about this first, and it will be easy after he agrees. ."

   "Father, Miao'er also agrees with the second uncle to open a school, but the location of this school must not be chosen in our house."

   Yin Miao reminded at the right time.

She thinks that it is better to start a school than to teach Li Jun only one person. If only one person is taught, Li Jun will be a frequent visitor to their family in the future. Three meals a day are white rice and white noodles... that's really a big hassle.

   And the opening of the school will not be possible, Yin Bowen can completely find another place to teach and educate people.

   "That's right, I'll just go to Ri and say it."

   Once a decision has been made, Yin Bowu will not be able to rest for a moment, he can only wish to help Yin Bowen to set up the school immediately.

   Wei Lizheng, after learning about Yin Bowen's idea, flashed a gleam in his eyes: "Very good, very good!"

  The children in the village are helpless to play outside every day. If there is such a place for them to learn some knowledge, let alone Tanhualang, even if they can get a jinshi, it will definitely make a sensation in the ten miles and eight townships.

   "Then if this school can really be run, this place..."

   Yin Bowu remembered what his daughter said, so he asked again.

   "This is easy to say. There are empty houses in the village. As long as you are willing to teach, you can choose the location!"

   Wei Lizheng said.

   With the support of Lizheng, Yin Bowu returned home full of joy, and the next step was to choose a school.

   "Wei Lizheng also said that we can move out of this dilapidated courtyard, and there are other better houses in the village, but I refused."

   Yin Bowu said.

   Although this place is broken, the location is indeed the most unique and hidden. Coupled with their large yard where many vegetables can be grown, he thinks this is the most suitable place.

   "Thank you, big brother, for your help."

   Yin Bowen gave a rare smile, and Liu Shi, who was beside him, was also relieved.

  No matter how difficult the life is, as long as the family supports each other, they can always have fun in the midst of suffering...

   Mr. Zhang, who has been helping in the kitchen, has prepared all the family's tableware and chopsticks. The moment Yunhe lifted the lid of the pot, the aroma immediately wafted into his nostrils.

   "I didn't know before that a chicken can cook such a big pot."

   Wei said.

   "The key is that this chicken is strong, but the chickens in our yard are all growing fast."

   Zhen said while serving the rice.

   Obviously those chickens also ate some vegetable leaves and swill. At most, Brother Han followed Xiaobao to catch some bugs and came back, but all of them grew very strong.

   Yin Miao smelled the aroma of the chicken, and felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. It was natural, because she would feed the chickens in the yard a handful of sorghum rice almost every night.

   Yunhe's craftsmanship is very good, and ginseng is specially put in the chicken soup, Wei Shi repeatedly instructed Yunhe to let Xiao Xuan use more, saying that this is a great tonic.

   "The Yin family is not in short supply in terms of food. How high are the food prices in several places now?"

   Xiao Xuan asked after finishing his meal.

   "Master, the price of grain in the entire 16 counties of Tingshi Prefecture has remained the same. Now it has risen to 3,000 cents per stone, and the price outside Tingshi Prefecture is about the same."

   Yunjiang replied.

   "Can someone go to the state to inspect?" Xiao Xuan asked again.

"No." Yunjiang specifically asked about the information collected by each team. The price of food is rising little by little. Now the people can only accept it little by little. When the price rises to a certain level, maybe there will be people. Realize the problem.

   Xiao Xuan lowered his head and sneered: "It seems that the person behind the scene can indeed cover the sky with one hand. Let someone send this letter out, it's almost time."

   "Yes." Yun Jiang responded, then took an inconspicuous bamboo tube and put it on him.

  …

  Yin Miao has been recovering from her injuries for the past few days. When she learned that the village had begun to build a fence to resist the bandits, she decided to walk slowly to take a look.

  Changling Village seems to be the same as it was a few days ago, but it is different everywhere. Many villagers who come and go still wear filial cloths on their heads, and the white smear reminds everyone what happened a few days ago.

   Most of the people looked solemn, but they would greet Yin Miao when they saw her.

   "Girl, are you healed?" Grandma Zhang at the west end of the village asked with a smile.

   "It's almost ready, it's already crusted."

  Yin Miao looked at Granny Zhang, who had become thin and dry. She was too thin and her body was like a dried shrimp curled up, as if she would fall to the ground when the wind blew. And this is also the current situation of many elderly people in Changling Village.

   Said to be old, but in fact he was only in his fifties.

   "That's good, thank you a few days ago."

   Granny Zhang smiled with kind eyes and kind eyes, while Yin Miao put her hand into her wide sleeve, then took out two small taro and put it in Granny Zhang's hand and whispered, "I planted it, Granny try it."

   Granny Zhang touched the chubby little taro in her hand, and just wanted to stuff it back to Yin Miao, but saw that the little girl had already run away.

   "He's a good boy, it's a pity this world... hey!"

   Granny Zhang held the two little taro in her arms tightly, turned around and walked home.

   When Yin Miao arrived at the entrance of the village, she found that a long gully had been dug there, with dozens of people chopping wood and pulling soil.

  After discussing with the villagers, Wei Lizheng planned to make the surrounding wall of the village into an adobe wall. The so-called adobe wall is to put soil into a wooden frame and then tamp it down. Such a wall will be much stronger and more tidy than a mud wall.

   "Grandpa Wei, how many days will it take us to build this wall?" Yin Miao asked.

   "This wall is time-consuming. It may take seven or eight days to build it completely."

  Wei Lizheng let the villagers take turns to watch the night at the entrance of the village these days, otherwise he himself would be worried that he would be raided by bandits at night.

   It will take seven or eight days... Yin Miao was a little anxious. She thought about it for the past two days and felt that the bandits would definitely come back.

   "There's nothing we can do about that. We are going to the county office in person and want to ask some officials to come and live here for a few days, but they ignore us."

   Villager Chen Jianan said.

   Now they are on their own.
