Chapter 139 Refreshing Pills
Master Chen said with emotion: "Although this little girl is young, she is impeccable in what she says and does. If she was born in a family like Mr. Du, she would have been nurtured by the family and would have achieved great things in the future. It's a pity that her parents have a weak relationship, and she has to bear the burden of the family at such a young age."
"Lin Cheng and Lin Wuyou are not bad either. Although they only wrote one word just now, it is obvious that they have worked hard in their daily practice. They have such concentration at this age, so they will definitely be good at studying in the future."
At this point, Master Chen frowned in confusion, "Come to think of it, Huang Xiaoshun seems older than Lin Cheng and Lin Wuyou, but how come he has never learned to read as a family member? Hey, when I called out their names, I realized that their surnames are different. Aren't they from the same family? How come they have two surnames? Could it be that Huang Xiaoshun took his mother's surname?"
Mrs. Chen and Lin Chuyi chatted for so long that she had some understanding of their affairs.
At this time, Mrs. Chen resisted the urge to roll her eyes and explained their situation to her husband who was slow to realize the situation.
"Are you old and blind? Don't you see that Huang Xiaoshun looks a bit like Mr. Huang? Huang Xiaoshun is Mr. Huang's grandson, and the twins are from the same family as the little girl."
Master Chen suddenly realized: "Oh, so they are not from the same family. No wonder Huang Xiaoshun doesn't look like the other two children. Eh, are Lin Wuyou and Lin Cheng actually twins? I really didn't realize it."
Mrs. Chen really couldn't help but roll her eyes at this moment.
"What else can you do with those eyes besides reading? It's so obvious, and you still need me to point it out to you."
"You don't have to feel sorry for the little girl. Even though her parents are gone, she can still afford to send her younger brothers and sisters to school. She can even send the grandson of her servant to study with her. This shows that her family is not bad."
"Besides, you said it yourself, the girl is still young, and she has done nothing wrong. Who knows if she won't achieve great things in the future? Instead of sighing about this and regretting that, it would be better for her to help me do something practical."
Master Chen was not angry at being criticized by his wife. Instead, he nodded in agreement and bowed to his wife. "Madam, you are right. I wonder what you want to say?"
"You!"
When Mrs. Chen saw her husband like this, she glared at him in reproach. They were already an old couple, but they still didn't behave properly. Mrs. Chen felt disgusted in her heart, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"The apprenticeship gifts they sent over are still in the school. They are quite heavy. Come with me to move them back to our room. Then you can go prepare for class. I will sort them out by myself."
"okay."
Master Chen agreed and made a gesture to his wife to invite him in. Mrs. Chen readily agreed, and the couple entered the school together.
Lin Chuyi and his group of five returned to Qingshan Village on a shaky ox cart.
On the way, Lin Chuyi explained clearly the time to go to and from school, the things to bring every day, etc., and then when the car arrived at the entrance of Qingshan Village, he turned over and jumped off the ox cart.
She asked Uncle Huang to drive the ox cart to take the three of them home, while she herself changed her route and went to the town to buy some things.
Uncle Huang wanted to drive Lin Chuyi there, but he always remembered what Lin Chuyi had said before. He did not question Lin Chuyi's decision, but agreed and drove the ox cart home.
Lin Chuyi had not expected that there would be another child in the family, so he only prepared two sets of paper, ink, brush and inkstone. He would send them to school tomorrow, and it would not be good to let Lin Cheng and Huang Xiaoshun share a set of four treasures of the study.
Lin Chuyi was thinking about this matter on the way, and finally decided to go there in person.
When she arrived in town, she went straight to the shop where she had bought the four treasures of the study.
After buying paper, ink, brush and inkstone, Lin Chuyi went to Wuweizhai and packed some of their favorite mung bean cakes and jujube and yam cakes, and then carried the things back to Qingshan Village.
After dinner that night, Lin Chuyi pulled Grandpa Huang into the study to cook for him.
In order to help Mr. Huang concentrate, Lin Chuyi put a refreshing pill, which was a reward for upgrading his game level, into his teacup.
The refreshing pills melt in the mouth and dissolve in water. They can focus people's attention in a short period of time, so that when receiving new information, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort. The effective period is half an hour.
While drinking tea to refresh himself, Grandpa Huang listened to Lin Chuyi's "extra lessons" for him. The more he listened, the more energetic he became, and the more interested he became.
After he was able to answer Lin Chuyi's questions fluently, Lin Chuyi finally felt relieved and let him go back to rest.
By the time Mr. Huang lay down on the bed, the effect of the refreshing pills had worn off. Mr. Huang could clearly feel himself getting sleepy, and he started snoring less than a minute after closing his eyes.
When he woke up the next morning, Grandpa Huang felt refreshed. He got up quickly to prepare fodder and water for his beloved ox. After the ox was full and satisfied, he harnessed the ox to the ox cart.
After doing all this, Grandpa Huang went to the kitchen to eat the breakfast prepared by Aunt Huang and Mrs. Shen. He got up early, and when he finished breakfast, the three children had just got up.
Seeing that it was still early, he did not rush the children, but went to clean up the manure left by the cattle yesterday.
Lin Wuyou and the others knew that they could go to school today, and they were so excited that they fell asleep very late last night.
They were not awakened until Lin Jinxiu and Aunt Huang went to their room to call them this morning.
Fortunately, they were not very irritable when getting up in the morning. As soon as the adults called them, they climbed out of bed with sleepy eyes.
After washing up and sitting at the table to eat, they were already fully awake. They ate faster than each other for fear that they would be late for school if they ate too slowly.
After breakfast, they checked their school bags and made sure nothing was missing. Then they carried their school bags and got on the ox cart, waiting for Grandpa Huang to drive them to school.
Now they finally had some free time, and they sat on the ox cart chattering non-stop, bursting into laughter from time to time.
Seeing that the three were ready, Uncle Huang put down the unfinished work in his hands, washed his hands, came to the ox cart, sat on the driver's seat, picked up the whip, gently whipped the ox's back, and shouted.
Huang Niu followed Grandpa Huang's instructions and slowly pulled the cart out of the yard.
The sounds of children playing gradually faded away as the ox cart moved away, and the yard gradually became quiet.
This was the first time for the three children to go to school, and everyone in the family stood in the yard and watched them leave.
