Long years (45)

"The sun is big, the earth is small, and the earth runs around the sun. The earth is big, the moon is small, and the moon runs around the earth."

Qinglang has a childish voice. This is Qingning reciting the text.

The first thing you do when you get home from school is do your homework. What is homework?

The sun, the earth, the moon, plus the word "around", were written ten times. The next day she had to recite the text to the teacher. Before reciting it to the teacher, she very consciously recited it to her father.

"The round moon is like a small boat, and the two ends of the small boat are pointed. When I sit in the small boat, I can only see the twinkling stars and the blue sky."

This has memorized all the new things I learned today.

Then she blinked at her father and said, "...I've finished memorizing it." She also finished writing and handed over the homework book neatly.

The fourth master had just received the homework book, and the little girl turned around, holding up the textbook, and went to preview her homework.

Lin Yutong heard her muttering: "Farmers planted corn in the fields, and in autumn, they harvested a lot of corn..."

While reciting, I marked each word with pinyin. After the pinyin was finished, Fourth Master also checked it.

Then Qingning put down the textbook and jumped up, "Dad, didn't you tell me to show me the models of the sun, the earth, and the moon?"

That's right, the fourth master really made such a model for his children according to certain proportions, and he keeps it in his study.

If you want to buy something, there is no place to buy it. Even if the school buys teaching equipment for children in the name of a collective, you may not be able to find it. What can you do for the sake of your children?

Sit down. It's not practical to find a carpenter. They can make a rough shape, but they will definitely not be as precise as he requires.

Then when I have nothing to do, I spend time in the utility room, polishing a set of models that are quite impressive for my children. Making the appearance is not enough, I have to paint the color and mark the address according to the proportion. I am busy.

It took quite a long time, and then her daughter was really excited. She was thinking about that thing every day.

Lin Yutong was just about to ask him to give him something to drink after finishing his homework, but when he turned around, the two of them went to the study hand in hand.

Fourth Master is giving astronomy lessons to his daughter.

Teaching children this kind of lesson requires a lot of patience.

For example, what would you say about the sun?

It is said that the diameter of the sun is about 1,392,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to 109 times the diameter of the earth. Then the child will ask, what is the diameter? You can't just tell her and you will know after learning. The fourth master will definitely tell the child seriously if he has a temper.

, what is diameter? This can be regarded as taking out part of mathematics for children to learn in advance. When it comes to the volume is about 1.3 million times that of the earth, the mass is about 2×10^30 kilograms, which is 330,000 times that of the earth. This

We have to talk about physics, mass, volume, density, etc. Then we have to tell her what materials the sun is made of from a chemical point of view.

As you go on and on in class like this, you can imagine how slow the progress is.

It took a month just to give a brief introduction to the sun, earth, and moon.

By the time Lin Yutong found out, her daughter was already able to find questions from junior high school physics and chemistry papers.

Lin Yutong had never seen this kind of teaching method before.

It completely disrupts the steps of the textbook. Speaking of which, the source is still the first-grade Chinese textbook.

Chinese textbooks teach children how to read words and tell them the relationship between the three.

Then the fourth master directly added mathematics, physics and chemistry to the children.

When Jin Laoer came over and told him that he wanted to find someone from Xinhua Bookstore to buy books for Qingping, Fourth Master also followed him.

Qingping didn't know what was going on, but this was the second time he had lost his textbook. The book was lost at every turn. Every page of the book was rolled into a tube.

This time I lost it again and had to buy it again.

As a result, Fourth Master bought back all the textbooks for the six years of primary school.

"Are you planning to ask your child to skip a grade?" Lin Yutong glared, "Are you too anxious?"

The problem is that your daughter is just full of energy right now.

If you don't occupy her time and energy, she will be naughty and mischievous in school.

Okay! That makes sense.

Of course you have to study from the textbook, but Fourth Master basically doesn’t explain it. There is nothing to explain. Just remember the words, if you can recognize them, read them, and write them, then there will be no problem.

Otherwise, what should I say?

"The spring breeze blows... the spring breeze blows... it blows the willow trees green and the peach blossoms red..."

Instead of explaining this, Fourth Master would rather talk about "The spring breeze in February is like scissors." and "The peach blossoms on the human face complement each other red." He can tell the children about the personal experiences of He Zhizhang and Cui Hu from the history of the Tang Dynasty. Even the history class is included.

Already.

They live in an alley and there are three of them who go to the same class.

Anyway, the three little girls are all quite clever. They often do homework together when they come back. What they love most is staying here. The room is warm here, and there is never a shortage of delicious food. They eat and do homework at the same time.

After Qingning finished writing, Yaner took it to compare.

I don’t know if they are just copying or really comparing. Anyway, this one said the number should be three, and that one said it was two. Then I looked at Qing Ning and saw that she wrote four. The two of them decisively changed it to four. Who cares what it is.

Is it four?

Lin Yutong had just brought in the roasted sweet potatoes and asked the three of them to share them. Then he heard Lonicera scolding: "... Yan'er... Yan'er... Where did you go, you damn girl? Come back and cook!"

Yan'er hurriedly copied Qing Ning's homework and responded, not forgetting to take a hot sweet potato from the plate and go, stuffing it into her mouth while walking, and vaguely responded to the honeysuckle outside: "Mom! I'm here! Just now

Finished writing..."

You have to stand on the bench when cooking, but you still have to cook when you need to.

For most girls of this age, if they don’t have older sisters or unmarried aunts at home, they can basically cook.

Qingping can do it too. On Sundays, she follows her mother, peeling onions and garlic, or helping add charcoal to the kitchen. If she finishes her homework early, she goes back to help wash the dishes.

Qing Ning has really never cooked before.

The fourth master must be reluctant to part with her! My daughter should be a princess when she is born, and if she does not have the status of a princess, she should live like a princess.

As for the little old lady, after living in the city for a year, the little old lady keenly discovered that other people's homes have nannies. Although these nannies are said to be relatives from the countryside, they are actually nannies.

Isn’t this considered exploitation?!

Then why should children learn to do these housework?

How many nannies can I hire with the money I have left for my children? As long as I pay the price, I can hire ten or eight cooks.

Therefore, people like Qingning are an outlier in rural areas.

This is the off-farm time, and there are adults at home cooking. If the children are out of school during the busy farming period, the adults at home may not be able to come back from the fields yet. But it is not just the children who prepare their own meals. Those who know how to cook cook a little, and those who don’t can soak them in boiling water.

Put some salt on the steamed buns, add some oil, and it's a meal. Some girls are clever and fry the steamed buns into pieces, or when there are no adults at home, they quickly pour some oil and fry the steamed buns or something to satisfy their cravings.

. If there is no girl in the family who can cook, then the mother has to be careful. Cook something for the first meal and keep it warm in the pot for the child to eat. When it comes to girls, adults rarely do that. Not all boys are favored.

Girl, everyone knows that girls will have to learn this in the future. If you pass the exam, you don’t have to wait for a family to eat and drink? You should love your daughter if you love your daughter, but you can’t spoil your child. If you don’t do anything, then

You are harming your children. If you burn the rice when you are studying at home, it will be fine. Your parents will just laugh it off. But if you say that you will ruin your husband's family in the future, you will ask your mother-in-law to teach you? Then I guess you will have to swing the rolling pin on your body.

.

Although I train my children by the way during busy farming days, if I am really free at home, I rarely rely on my children to cook. After all, how can I cook at a young age? At most, it can be regarded as turning raw food into mature food.

This is the case at the Rendong family! After all, the family does have a sick child to take care of, and if there is no time to cook for the child, there is no other way but to ask the eldest child in the family to help.

As for the two girls, the older one cooks and the younger one lights the fire and eats the food in their mouths in a fool's errand. The man carries bags for others outside and pays one penny for each bag. As for her, she can't do anything and just take care of things at home.

It's a small one.

Women don't have much to earn a living in winter. Just because they don't have a job doesn't mean they're idle.

What are you doing?

We have to take out the shoes that the whole family wears throughout the year in winter.

When the sun comes, bask in the sun at the door. Everyone moves a small bench and comes out with sewing work in hand. If there is no sun and the weather is bad, then it must be a house with a better relationship. Let's go there.

Beside, several women were sitting on the kang, working and talking.

What can I say?

Ah!

If the east is long and the west is short, what else can we do?

Television is not a popular gadget. Not to mention black and white, there are no TV programs available at any time.

Aunt Jin has already moved to the back of the orchard to live with Qinghui, two grandsons, a heated kang, and a TV. She will definitely not be lonely. During the day, she will meet up with a group of old ladies to chat about life.

Feel free immediately.

Sometimes there is no need to cook rice. Yingzi cooks it for the guests in a small restaurant and adds a bowl of water, which is enough for their grandparents.

People say this is a life lived by only one person.

But Aunt Jin also knows that this happy life will not last for a few days.

Yingzi gave birth to a son on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Aunt Jin also had a grandson.

The child is named Qing'an. He is healthy, white and fat, and he lives so close. Who will take care of the child?
