Chapter 125: Zhuangzi education should be the first
The caravan left, and Jia Weiran also changed into a new horse. He could not carry such heavy copper coins with him, so he had to pay it with some broken silver. This horse was much better than the one just now. He ran around and was not slow at all.
After getting warm, Jia Weiran began to scold Zhangjiazhuang again and fantasize about what his future would be.
At the Zhangjiazhuang, the house was built, and everyone began to prepare food for thirty nights. The merchants told the people who could take out their homes to the person who was responsible for recording. Originally, Zhang Xiaobao was preparing to take some things from each household in their home and put them on the table to eat.
Unexpectedly, the merchants did not agree with this distribution method. They were not without money. Their income this year was many times that of usual. With the skills of the Zhang and Wang family, they would be better in the future.
Not only these, in addition to their income, they also spend less money. The clothes made by the owner of the family have been several times a year. During the most tiring period of work, the owner of the family also cooks good food for them. In addition, the children can also eat three meals in school.
If they cannot enter or leave, they have more spare money without spending, so they are going to take more things out. They cannot always keep an eye on the owner's house to eat, and report the things they can take out from their homes one by one. Then let someone decide how much and what each family takes, and try to get the same price for the things they take.
The owners of Zhang and Wang family also bought twenty sheep from outside. The two cows that could not work were all ready, just waiting to kill them to eat during the New Year. In addition to these, there were new bowls and chopsticks, and all of them were paid by Zhang Xiaobao. Who made him the richest?
The vegetables are also ready to be served. First go to the place where you grow vegetables, choose them, and pick them now. There are also various seasonings and sauces, including some nourishing medicinal materials, and they are also placed aside to wait for use.
The last one is noodles, and there are various meat fillings. Zhang Xiaobao is preparing to make two kinds of dumplings, one is pork and green onion filling, the other is three-fresh filling, which is exchanged for big shrimps and some fresh shrimps in the river. They can be made with shrimp and eggs, and leeks are wrapped with fresh shrimps and garlic sprouts.
The meat fillings must be chopped out first so that they can be packed at that time. Many women are responsible for this, burning charcoal fire next to them and setting meat on the chopping board. These people are like a competition, chopping them up.
The little kids knew that they would be together during the Chinese New Year this year. They ran and jumped happily, chasing each other, and laughter came from time to time.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also followed, watching the adults frying things there. Some of these things were just a little sugar on the noodles, and some were filled with various stuffings.
The merchants were working there and chatting about the affairs of the village. Some of the older ones sat next to them and brought a few kids to tell them what they were like during the Chinese New Year.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also like to listen, so they got together and squatted there.
"I was young when I first arrived in Zhangjiazhuang. At that time, the old man of the Zhang family was the head of the family. His life was not as good as it is now. At that time, during the Chinese New Year, which family dared to eat like this? After a New Year's Eve dinner, I don't have to live after the Chinese New Year, and I'm waiting to starve to death."
An old man was squinting his eyes there, recalling the past and saying it to the children, but there was no sadness on his face.
"Grandpa Wannian, did you say that the old man in the past is not good?" A little kid asked when he heard this.
"Don't talk nonsense." Grandpa Wannian, who was talking about, slapped Wai's forehead and glanced at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. Seeing that the two little ancestors were not dissatisfied at all, he felt relieved, otherwise the old man would be sad if he heard it.
He continued, "Where did you get the master without an old man? This is the master's ability. At that time, I was not like you, you could go to school every day, and it would be better if you didn't starve to death. Whenever the yield after harvest was lower, the old master of the Zhang family would collect less. There was a fief of 100 households, so that there would be no one in our village to starve to death.
Look at you now, you are enjoying your happiness. You have books to read. There are three delicious meals in the village a day, but you have to study hard and give your family more effort when they are old.
Where did you talk about it? Eating, what you used to eat was messy, how could you compare to now? If you want to eat meat in a few days, you can eat rice, noodles, and new clothes to wear. Then next year, you can eat meat every meal.”
The old man said this, after sitting for a long time, he was a little tired. After rubbing his waist, he was about to go back. The little kid was happy to hear that when he saw Grandpa Wannian leaving, two clever ones came to the back of Grandpa Wannian and started to massage his back. One of them said, "Grandpa Wannian, don't leave, we will massage your back."
This back massage is useless, but the old man smiled and nodded, "Okay, continue to say, talk about the food, have you seen those cattle and sheep? You should keep your stomach when you are thirty, otherwise you will not be able to eat them. There are also those dumplings and pig trotters that you dare not think about before.
If anyone doesn’t believe it, go to other farms or ordinary people’s homes to see if they have these things to eat? It would be nice to use white flour and other bread to order dumplings during the Chinese New Year. How dare you put meat like this? There are only some onions, the others are all meat, and the shrimps."
"I know, Grandpa Wannian, other farmers and other ordinary families, who met the people in our two farms at the market, and they were envious of them. They spoke differently than before. I know what I had for the Chinese New Year. I had a little meat in it when I ate vegetables and dumplings."
A slightly older child followed there, and remembered what he ate in school, including milk, eggs, pancakes, and meat. Even the vegetable buns would have a lot of oil in it. The oil bite in the mouth and ran down the mouth.
Thinking of this, the child turned his attention to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan who were also happy and said, "Young master, little lady, don't worry, we will protect you when we grow up, can you treat us well like the current master?"
"Okay, okay, it's better than this. My family will have more money by then, and the same is true for your family." Zhang Xiaobao agreed in the bottom line.
Wang Juan laughed aside. These things were all from Zhang Xiaobao. The children in the village were so cute and dared to ask anything.
The Wannian Grandpa also looked at the little ancestors of the Zhang and Wang families happily. He didn't know that these were all made by the two little ancestors, but he knew that his life was not so good. Since the little ancestors of the Zhang and Wang families were born and one year old, Zhuangzi seemed to have suddenly changed.
Everyone no longer worrys about whether they can have a meal tomorrow, nor is they afraid of having no clothes to cover their bodies. Life is getting better and better. These are all blessings brought by the two little ancestors, and this must be the case.
"Also, look at our house now, and it will be replaced with a new one next year. Then..." Grandpa Wannian continued to talk, and the children also listened, with houses covering them around and charcoal fires, so they didn't feel cold at all outside.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan looked at this Wannian Grandpa and rubbed their waists from time to time, looked at each other, and communicated with each other with lips.
"Xiaobao, do Grandpa Wannian have lumbar anterior anterior or lumbar muscle strain? Why not find a way to help relieve it so that the people in the village can feel more comfortable."
Wang Juan didn't want these merchants who looked like their family to be too uncomfortable, so he asked Zhang Xiaobao.
"How could I know? It seems that the lumbar muscle should be strained. I don't know which one I have ever had. I should make a steam place, then soak it with Chinese medicine and use wine to rub it slowly. I can do two methods. When I was injured before, I went to ask someone to press it, I chatted about what they taught me, and sometimes I pressed it myself."
Zhang Xiaobao doesn't know how to see a doctor, so he can only try some things he hears and what he has learned, but he can't press it for the old man, he still has a lot of things.
Wang Juan also knew about Zhang Xiaobao's situation and said, "You can teach others, and our doctors can do acupuncture. In the future, we will train some people who specialize in treating various diseases, such as massage, cupping, scraping, etc., to cultivate talents, and turn the Zhang and Wang family villages into a comprehensive place.
By then, as long as something happens, someone will be able to take over immediately. After the Chinese New Year, you write some planning content. I will give the children military training every day. When they get older, there will be someone available. Don’t tell me that you don’t know how to plan.”
"Yes, you said, international fraudsters don't know how to plan how to cheat? What I think is that not only children need to learn, but adults also need to learn. When they are not busy, let adults learn.
When everyone knows to read, they can read more books and know what it means. This is also a kind of accumulation of experience. Then they learn to write and write down good experiences. Why do you need to use oral transmission to inherit it?”
Zhang Xiaobao also thought about it. He knew that in the past, recognizing words might not be anything, but everyone knows it, but now not everyone has the opportunity. For example, eating at some homes is a problem, where can I buy pens, ink, paper, ink, and other things? It is impossible to learn things without paying a pen, what does the teacher eat?
Wang Juan also understands the importance of knowledge, which lies in inheritance. Many good folk prescriptions are not known to write, can’t write, and passed on by word of mouth. In the end, they are obscured in history and no one will remember them.
"Okay, I agree. Anyway, they don't have to pay for it. Just learn. When they gradually trust their master more, I will tell them about physics and chemistry. I don't need you. I know you don't know. Just help me find various experimental supplies."
