"You took me in, kept me from starving, and gave me a place to live. This is my reward for teaching you how to calculate and keep accounts."
He answered seriously, obviously knowing that he couldn't take advantage of this.
Zhao Huanyu saw that he was a good boy who knew how to repay his kindness, and he liked him even more, so he insisted: "Even so, it does not affect the salary I give you. It is not easy to teach people to learn these things. The money I give you is deducted from you."
Whatever is left after food and accommodation is what you earn yourself. No matter when, you must have money in your hand to be at ease. Although money is not everything, but having no money is absolutely impossible."
After saying that, she lifted her legs and walked into the house, not forgetting to leave a sentence: "It's cold outside, and your illness is not cured yet, so it's better to go out less."
Cao Gen didn't say anything, he just stood there for a while, thinking about her words carefully, and then followed her in.
That night, the Zhao family became lively. In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. It gets dark after dinner, but this does not affect the Zhao family's enthusiasm for learning.
Especially the Yuan family, knowing that she was going to look after the shop for Zhao Huanyu, she was so excited that she even asked her son to borrow pen and paper, saying that she must learn well and help her niece look after the shop.
Xiao Tiedou didn't know that he had been entrusted with the important task until he came back in the evening. Although he had two cousins at his uncle's house before, he was now facing a large family, and he was teaching literacy before and now he is teaching accounting.
Accounting was much more difficult, and he was still a little nervous.
Everyone was sitting neatly, but Little Tiedou didn't know where to start.
Calculating accounts is better, but one must be able to write to keep accounts. If you want to be able to write, you must first be literate, but there are so many words, and his sister asked for it to be completed within half a month. He is a little big-headed and completely
Don't know what to do.
Zhao Huanyu smiled and asked Cao Gen: "Cao Gen, do you have any good ideas?"
Everyone knew that Cao Gen was Xiao Tiedou's friend, and they also knew that he had lived a poor life before, but they didn't know that he was literate. When Zhao Huanyu asked Cao Gen for his opinion, everyone was still a little confused. What could Cao Gen do?
Do you know?
But Xiao Tiedou knew that Cao Gen was more knowledgeable than him. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Yes, Cao Gen, please help me think of a way. I'm almost dying of anxiety!"
Cao Gen said calmly: "Since you just want to learn accounting and accounting, then teach common words first, then teach accounting methods, and finally teach accounting skills. If you teach them separately, it will be much simpler."
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that! Cao Gen, you are so awesome!"
Xiao Tiedou suddenly became enlightened. After thinking for a while, he picked up a pen and wrote some common words needed for accounting on the paper.
While he was writing, Zhao Huanyu introduced to everyone: "Grassroot is also the little teacher I hired for you. From now on, the two of them will teach you. If you have any questions that you don't understand, you must ask more questions. You can also ask them both.
It’s okay to ask me, our goal is to learn.”
"Oh, grass roots are so powerful!"
Yuanshi looked at Cao Gen, with envy in her eyes. Little Tie Dou was really different. It didn’t matter that she was good at studies. All the friends she knew were great. She was Er Mao before, but now she is Cao Gen. Why couldn’t her son meet someone like this?
friend?
Little Tiedou nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Auntie, grass roots are amazing!"
Xiao Tiedou originally wanted to say more, but when he remembered what he had mentioned when Cao Gen taught him his homework last night, he didn't want too many people to know about his good knowledge, so he immediately shut up.
Zhao Huanyu naturally knew what the grassroots were worried about. It was nothing more than exposing the matter and someone coming to him, which would be detrimental to him.
It is not easy for a child to be so vigilant. Zhao Huanyu really admires him.
Because it was the first night, Xiao Tiedou was not very prepared, so he only taught them a few words for the time being.
But even if it’s just a few words, it won’t work for everyone, because they not only have to remember these words, but they also have to be able to write them.
It doesn’t matter how beautiful the writing is, but it must be understandable.
Among this group of students, the most difficult one is probably Gao.
Yes, Mrs. Gao was also forced to participate in the study. Zhao Huanyu asked her to learn with everyone on the pretext that she would occasionally let her help in the shop.
As Mr. Gao got older, his memory faded a lot, making it extremely difficult to learn.
The most uncomfortable thing is that because the young gentlemen are our own children, after their uncles and aunts finish their studies and leave, Mr. Gao, who is the laggard, will be given extra classes, which is really tortured.
Of course, Zhao Huanyu was not abusing the elderly, nor did he really expect her to help him look after the shop. He just thought that letting Gao use his brain to learn from it would effectively prevent Alzheimer's disease.
After four or five consecutive days, Mr. Gao gradually accepted this learning atmosphere, learned faster and became more proactive.
Zhao Huanyu felt that this was all due to the extra lessons given to her by Cao Gen, so she cooked delicious food in different ways every day to replenish his body.
The shop has already started to be renovated. Because he paid Qian Laosan hard work, he worked hard and helped Zhao Huanyu find a carpenter to renovate the tables and chairs.
Zhao Huanyu didn't worry about these things. Zhao Huanyu said that next time she bought a house, she would ask for money from Lao San, but he was very happy.
That afternoon, as soon as Zhao Huanyu returned to the village from the town, she saw Wan Daqing, the grandson of the village chief's family, waiting there. When he saw her, he hurried up to greet her and said anxiously: "Sister Xiaoyu, the person your family brought back
There is trouble by the river, go and have a look!"
Zhao Huanyu's heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly asked: "What happened? When did it happen?"
"Wan Jin was pushed into the ice cave by him. It happened a quarter of an hour ago. Although Wan Jin has been fished out, it seems that he may not be able to survive. Aunt Lin is shouting for his life! My grandpa
He said you should be back soon and asked me to wait for you here!"
Hearing what Wan Daqing said, Zhao Huanyu's heart sank. Why is he related to the Lin family again?
Besides, why did that kid from Grassroots run to the river in such good condition?
She jumped off the bullock cart and followed Wan Daqing to the river in a hurry.
Wan Zhu looked at her figure running further and further away and sighed, why is her house not peaceful all day long?
At this time, Zhao Huanyu was also asking herself this question. Although she had been mentally prepared for it, when trouble came to her door, she still couldn't help but feel angry.
Soon we arrived at the riverside, and there were actually a lot of people gathered around us in the middle of winter, not afraid of the cold.
Ms. Lin held her eldest son Wan Jin and sat in the snow crying until the sky was dark and the earth was dark.
"My son, if something happens to you, how will your mother survive? Woohoo..."
The little grassroots were pinned down by several boys from the Wan family, kneeling in the snow and not allowed to move. He was not in good health to begin with, and now he was kneeling in the snow, his face looking pale.
