Su Niang thought for a while and seemed to have made up her mind. She got up and walked quickly back to the house. When she came out again, she had a small cloth bag wrapped in a handkerchief in her hand.
Su Niang was a little reluctant to let go, but she was also determined to take out the silver coins Zhu Zhi had just given her yesterday from her handkerchief.
He bit his lip and said, "This is the money you gave me yesterday. As long as you teach Mo'er to read and write, I will return the money to you, and I won't charge you for rent in the future."
Li Luo was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that this seemingly greedy and stingy village woman would be so determined. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. He didn't know why a woman in the mountains and fields must let her children read and write.
Seeing that Li Luo was a little confused, Su Niang's face turned slightly red. She looked at Mo'er fondly and whispered: "It doesn't matter that I endure hardships and hardships, but Mo'er still needs to be literate. It's enough for me to take him with me."
I rolled my eyes. If he is illiterate, I may not be able to make others look down on him in the future when I am gone."
Li Luo was slightly startled, then sighed, with mixed feelings. Back then, his family had hired many teachers to teach, and all of them were well versed in poetry.
Although Li Luo had also studied hard, I'm afraid he had never felt like Xixian Niang.
Li Luo smiled and said harmoniously: "Since I have promised, I will not do anything half-heartedly. You can just keep the money. We are lucky to have Su Niang take her in. Some trivial matters are not worth mentioning. Staying here is staying overnight, and teaching
It has nothing to do with Mo'er being literate."
Su Niang was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. It seemed that she couldn't connect the Li Luo at this moment with the face he had when he first arrived at Xiemadian, not willing to exchange his life for money.
Su Niang was very embarrassed, but when she looked at it, she saw that Li Luo did not say it casually. Although there was still shame on her face, she was not slow to put away the money.
Su Niang put the silver back into her arms, narrowed her eyes with a smile, and her expression changed so quickly that it was amazing.
In just a blink of an eye, Su Niang seemed to have forgotten the bad things said by these people in the town behind her back. Now that Li Luo has agreed to teach Mo'er to read, his whole heart is only focused on the toddler in his arms, and nothing else matters.
Already.
Li Luo sighed secretly, with mixed feelings in his heart. Su Niang was hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and seemed to be unruly and vulgar, but it was hard for Li Luo to tell what was going on deep inside, but Su Niang's smile looked particularly bitter.
Su Niang wiped away her tears, pinched Mo'er's little face, smiled charmingly and said: "Okay, Mo'er, let's learn from the rich family now, instead of going to a private school, let your husband and uncle teach you."
"Mom, aren't you the eldest brother?" Mo'er asked in confusion.
Su Niang smiled coquettishly and glanced at Li Luo secretly. She had been fighting with others in the morning, which was good. She just came over without shame and cursed in her heart. Isn't it because of a brat like you that I'm so duplicitous?
She said sternly: "Nonsense, sir is just sir. How do you always teach me to respect teachers? You can't call me uncle, just sir, you know?" Su Niang reprimanded loudly, trying to cover up the embarrassment on her face.
From Mo'er's point of view, it doesn't matter whether he is a husband, an uncle, or an elder brother, as long as he is not allowed to go to private school.
Mo'er responded happily and jumped into the house.
Li Luo was in a daze. He didn't know what was flashing through his mind. It was just that this startling glance came and went in such a hurry that he couldn't figure out what it was. It only left a vague shadow in his heart.
Su Niang was nervous and uneasy. She owed Li Luo a seemingly big favor. Her family was poor and she didn't know how to repay her. She said nervously: "Young master taught Mo'er to study, but you still don't want to accept the money. I really don't know how to thank you."
Young Master."
The conversation changed quickly, and she was very elegant and elegant, at least in Su Niang's mind.
Li Luo shook his head, indicating that it was okay. Su Niang seemed to have remembered something, clapped her hands and shouted: "That's great, you teach Mo'er how to read and write, how about I cook for you?"
Li Luo's scalp went numb, his face changed slightly involuntarily, and he said in shock: "Don't bother Su Niang."
Su Niang curled her lips, but she was surprisingly good-tempered and did not utter any words to refute. She snorted coldly, and her brows were naturally dissatisfied with Li Luo's lack of understanding of good people. However, few people could bear to bear such good intentions.
Su Niang suddenly smiled and rolled her eyes at Li Luo: "After all, you still think my food is unpalatable." After thinking about it, Chengyan continued, "Mo'er is naughty, sir, please give me more trouble."
"This is natural."
Su Niang was dubious, and asked a little worriedly: "But, the young master has taught before?"
Li Luo smiled fondly, nodded and said, "I actually taught him for a while."
"That's good." Su Niang felt relieved and her expression became much more enthusiastic. The cold look just now was gone now. She was so attentive.
Su Niang remembered something, and while packing up a few broken tables and chairs, she looked back at Li Luo and asked casually: "When did they leave?"
"We set off before dawn, and it will take at least three days, or at most five days, to return. Su Niang can rest assured."
Su Niang blushed, snorted softly, and said, "Why don't you go if I have nothing to worry about?"
Li Luo touched the tip of his nose, thinking about what to say better.
Qian Yi, Zhu Zhi and others secretly visited the agreed points, but Xiemadian, an important access road, could not be without spies. The generals begged Li Luo to stay in Xiemadian, one of them to monitor the passers-by.
The second is to collect the news from various places and analyze the latest developments regarding the opening of Shangfu.
Just when Li Luo was about to speak, Su Niang said somewhat sourly: "Forget it, I see that you are the master of the family. They are all your subordinates. Of course they cannot go out to endure hardship and stay here. How do you say that?"
Li Luo sighed and said, "Sit back and enjoy the success."
Su Niang nodded heavily, and then muttered with self-pity: "This person is different from other people. Some people have a good family since they were young, and they have no worries about food and clothing. Some people are born with a hard life.
I’m hungry and full, but I don’t know how I’m going to live tomorrow, hey.”
Although Su Niang's words were a bit garbled, Li Luo didn't find anything annoying. What Su Niang said was exactly what the people of Beifu are like today.
The rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer, the government is unkind, rich businessmen are unkind, students from poor families study poetry and books hard, and people work hard, some are trying to rise to the top, and some are just trying to make a living for their families.
It has to be a little better, which is mostly just a luxury in today's world.
In the morning, Li Luo taught Mo'er how to read and write.
Although Mo'er had studied in a private school for a few days, in a remote and remote place, he could only read a few scientific examination volumes everywhere, so it was not difficult to read.
