    When Gu Huaijin returned home, she put down the things in her hands and went straight to Lu Zhao. The brothers who had been practicing calligraphy also walked away silently with knowing glances, and took away the snacks bought for them under Gu Huaijin's instructions.

    "What are you going to embroider?" Gu Huaijin leaned over to look.

    What Lu Zhao held in his hand looked like a little tiger, "Second Sister looked at it all day today and finally chose this one."

    "It's so cute." Gu Huaijin took it and said happily, "Have you eaten yet? I brought cold dishes. Xiaodouzi hurried home today and said that Aunt Feng passed out because she was going to lose her weight and didn't eat."

    "Are you alright?" Lu Zhao asked worriedly upon hearing this.

    "It's okay, I brought you some vegetables with less oil and less salt for Aunt Feng."

    "Yeah." Lu Zhao drank two mouthfuls of porridge at noon and couldn't eat anything, so he was thinking about the side dishes that Gu Huaijin brought.

    Opening the bowl and chopsticks and taking a sip, Gu Huaijin saw that Lu Zhao was happy and said, "Master Wen sent a letter today, saying that he will be back in a few days."

    "What, Master Wen is coming back?" Lu Zhao's eyes lit up suddenly, which was a great news for him.

    Seeing Gu Huaijin nodding, he said again: "Today Wei Geer is still talking about Mrs. Wen."

    Speaking of this, Gu Huaijin said again: "Originally, the restaurant was opened in the town for the convenience of you to go to study."

    "It doesn't matter, besides, I don't want to go to school now, I barely know some characters and understand some meanings. When Master Wen comes, I want to stay in the village and teach."

    Lu Zhao's idea is also possible. He is a child student and has studied with Wen Qiliang for a period of time. It will be no problem to be a teacher, and he can participate in the spring exam during the period. The best scholar is the best in the exam. If he fails the exam, he will teach in the village.I didn't dare to think about stepping into the court.

    And this idea was born when Lu Zhao, Lu Tian, and Lu Yin were talking together today. heard from Lu Yin that there was a new Mr. Zhou Qi in the village this Chinese New Year.Zhan Ge found it, and after it came, Gu Ziqian and Gu Ziqi followed suit for two days, and even idiots like them could tell that their teachers were not as good as Wen Qiliang.

    And even more contemptuous of my little brother's reading, knowing that Lu Yin and the others have been acquainted with Wen Qiliang and Lu Zhao is even more disgusting, and they don't shy away from swearing in class.

    Rather than saying that he hates the little brother, it is better to say that Zhou Qi hates Wen Qiliang and Lu Zhao. One or two young brothers can be more promising than him. Of course he hates jealousy if he is knowledgeable and capable, so he speaks so badly that even Gu Ziqian and Lu ZhaoGu Ziqi was in an ugly state, but he didn't speak for Lu Zhao and their teacher Wen Qiliang.

    "Okay, now let's raise the baby at home with peace of mind, teach people how to read and wait for Mrs. Wen to come back." Gu Huaijin agreed with Lu Zhao and listened to everything he said.

    Gu Huaijin took out a small orange and peeled it to Lu Zhao, "It's a good start this year, and the young master of the Tang family came here admiringly. Master Qi also discussed with me how to set up this wedding restaurant, just waiting for the portraits to appear at the wedding banquet of the Tang family."And whether the banquet will be popular, Brother Tang will be as happy as staying in the shop when he hears that Mrs. Wen is coming, and then I can spend more time with you."

    After talking with Lu Zhao, Gu Huaijin went to prepare dinner while the sky was still bright. Since she was pregnant, Lu Zhao always slept early and always woke up at night, preparing meals and snacks in case Lu Zhao was hungry in the middle of the night.

    At night, Lu Zhao also became more and more restless, and managed to get through the night. The next day, the village head Zhou Zhan's house was very lively.

    Gu Huaijin listened to it, and it was Guo Qing and everyone from Liu who came to find the village chief to replace Zhou Qi. The reason was that the teaching was not good, and Zhou Zhan was almost pissed off.Yes, if you want to drive people away, you can drive them away, if you want to find a wife, you can find them, if you want to change them, you can change them?

    When arrived at the restaurant, Gu Huaijin saw Gu Ziqian and Gu Ziqi and asked about today's affairs.

    These two brothers have been very honest these days. From time to time, they would go to the new master Zhou Qi to attend lectures. After listening to Gu Huaijin's question, he said: "Today, mother went to tell the village chief about this matter. I don't know if it will be done or not.But in the future, we won’t be allowed to attend lectures by Mrs. Zhou, so we will do business with Big Brother.”

    The words are nice, but Gu Huaijin doesn't think it's too good. He doesn't want to teach these two people how to do business. It's not that he is stingy, but he feels that he has nothing to teach, and it doesn't look like he didn't let the Gu family fall.Well, just blame him.

    "You still need to read the book, otherwise the two aunts have spent all these years in vain?" Gu Huaijin said.

    "No, brother, we also want to open a restaurant or restaurant like you." Gu Ziqi said directly, "Can you lend us some money?"

    Both Gu Ziqi and Gu Ziqian can read, and they can know the daily checkout of customers and kitchen purchases, and they are also very clear about the daily flow of the restaurant.

    So they found an opportunity and started to borrow money from Gu Huaijin. They didn't want to sit here and serve the dishes, but the books they read recently didn't make any progress.It was about to start paying back the money, which made Gu Ziqian and Gu Ziqi feel like they were depending on others, unhappy, and determined to make money by themselves, like Gu Huaijin, earning a few hundred taels a day, and returning the money to Chen Fei so that they don't have to listen to others.

    But now they have almost spent all the money in their hands, so they can only ask Gu Huaijin for it. Anyway, Gu Huaijin has money, so why not give them some.

    Faced with such a direct question, Gu Huaijin wanted to refuse. Looking at the flow of water every day, in fact, after throwing away the rent and all expenses, there is not much left. Whether the money is borrowed or not is an enemy.Scolding, less scolding is not enough, and it is the same thing to be scolded or not to be scolded.

    "When the wages are paid this month, I will give you an extra 100 hangs, and slowly save up to set up a shop."

    When Gu Ziqian heard this, he became impatient. He felt that Gu Huaijin was able to open a small restaurant because he took 50 acres of land from his family in exchange for money to rent the shop. Otherwise, Gu Huaijin had no money and no ability to come here.Ah, "Brother, didn't you also take the land from your family to do what you are doing now?"

    Gu Huaijin felt that it was necessary to teach these two silly brothers a good lesson and reason, "Listen well, the fifty acres of land is not my family's land, but the fifty acres of land that I passed the examination as a scholar and the government was mine.You want to be able to work hard to get a child and get the land, so why are you dissatisfied here? You don’t respect me as a big brother, and what I give you now is right and should be.”

    Gu Ziqian and Gu Ziqi were speechless after some words, Gu Huaijin thought for a while and took out five taels of silver from his purse and said: "This money is enough for you to set up a small shop in the town. At firstIt is true that there is no smooth sailing and no step-by-step success."

    It wasn't that Gu Huaijin was really soft and wanted to give money to these two people, it was a slap first and then a sweet date.What said just now was a bit wrong. These two people's intentions would be to cause unnecessary trouble to the restaurant in the future, so Gu Huaijin thought that he would send these two people away by giving them money anyway.

    Of course Gu Ziqian and Gu Ziqi were unwilling, as only five taels of silver was enough, and what Gu Huaijin said meant that if they took the five taels of silver, they might not be allowed to stay in this restaurant, and that would be even worse.Now I still have to stay in the restaurant and watch Gu Huaijin, so I took the five taels of silver first and said: "Brother, we will keep it first, if there is not enough, I will come to you again, we will go to work first."

    Gu Huaijin nodded, and seeing that they had accepted the money, she thought it was an agreement and said, "In this case, I found a suitable shop and rented it. I also wish the two younger brothers to open the shop as soon as possible."

    Don't hang around in front of my eyes, this is Gu Huaijin's innermost thoughts.

    Gu Huaijin also asked Sun Liuzi these days to know that the one who lent money to Gu Ziqi and Gu Ziqi was Chen Fei, the town's black money collector.I don't know what the conditions are. The three people reached a consensus, one is willing to lend the money, and the other dares to take and spend it randomly without knowing whether Chen Fei is a fraudster.

    When I got home in the evening, Lu Zhao told Gu Huaijin about Guo Qing's disturbance at the village chief's house today, "Uncle came to see me today, and I told him Mr. Wen might come back. Uncle said that if Mr. Wen would still teach this villageNo matter the children in the school are boys or little brothers, as long as the adults in the family send the girls to teach, if you dislike others, don’t come to school.”

    "Uncle must be in a hurry today." Gu Huaijin gave a piece of green vegetables to the chattering Lu Zhao, because the obvious blush on Lu Zhao's face made his skin fairer, and his abdomen was a little bulging, but it didn't show until the month came.Huaijin, Gu Huaijin stroked it with her hands, smiling as if the child had already kicked him.

    "Yeah, uncle also said that Wei Geer, who I taught, can be a teacher." This is what makes Lu Zhao happy. Before, I just thought about it, but now I can really try it, even if it doesn't matter.Understand, he can also only teach those brothers who want to read.

    Sitting on the edge of the kang, Lu Zhao was gently held in Gu Huaijin's arms and stroking his lower abdomen, feeling a strange and happy feeling that he had never experienced before.

    Gu Huaijin heard Lu Zhao's joy and said, "Okay, we won't be at home by then, and we will build a private school like in the city and divide it into rooms. Men, boys, and women can concentrate on their studies separately."

    Gu Huaijin also understood how difficult it was for Lu Zhao to go to school with Yuan Shen and the others. A younger brother, who was not as strong as them, was led astray by the discussions of the adults in the family and the villagers. Lu Zhao was bullied and made fun of.Let these children suffer as much as he did back then.Now it's no problem for Gu Huaijin to save money and build a private school. The masters are Wen Qiliang and Lu Zhao. Regardless of whether they are male or female, as long as they have good moral character and knowledge, those who are indiscriminate will not be recruited as masters.

    "Okay." Lu Zhao also lowered his head and gently stroked his lower abdomen. He was well aware of the prejudice against his brother's study, and he also knew that a man like him is not a man when he grows up.But so what?Lu Zhao was laughed at as a pregnant mole, and now she can still get pregnant.
