Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity

"Er! Why are you going?!" The woman ran out with a spatula, and saw her daughter running around in the yard, not getting angry. "You come back soon!"

Er Ya turned around and said, "No! Mother! There are people in town today, I'm going to see!"

The woman became even more angry: "What are you looking at? What is your business for the people in town?"

Erya: "I'm going to study in town! I heard that there is no money for studying in town!"

The woman sneered: "You are a girl, what book do you read? Your brother went to study, and you go again, who does the work at home?"

Er Ya hated: "Why can I work, but my brother can't do it? He is five years old, and I can follow him when I was five years old. Why can't he?"

The woman rolled her eyes: "Can you compare with your brother?"

Er Ya made a grimace at her mother: "He has one more handle than me! What's so valuable?"

The woman ran out with anger: "Come here and see if I won't teach you today!"

Er Ya rolled her eyes. She was small, with neat legs and feet, and she ran with wind. As she ran, she said, "I'm going to study! I'll find work in the city in the future! I can make you happy even if I earn money!" "

"I enjoy the blessing of your ass!" The woman said with her arms on her hips, panting, her face flushed with anger, "Can't you let me save snacks? It's not easy for me and your father to raise the three of you, let's give You save some dowry, and you will be worthy of you if you marry out in the future."

"I don't want a dowry!" Er Ya hid behind the wooden stakes, "I just want to go to school, I don't want to stay in the village all my life."

The woman was furious and frustrated: "What's wrong in the village? Did you eat a bite or wear a bite? Er Ya! You have no conscience!"

Er Ya shouted: "I have! The gentlemen in the town have said that going to the city is not to draw a clear line from the village, but to go to the city to learn more and to contribute to the village in the future!"

Mr. in town...

The woman said angrily: "He is just a gentleman! I'm still your mother!"

Erya: "Widow Zhao at the head of the village sent her daughter to school. Why can't I go?"

Woman: "Widow Zhao has only one daughter, but I have your elder brother and younger brother, but my family does not have a son, so why count on a girl to go to school?"

Er Ya bit her lip, biting her lips and bleeding: "No, I'm going to study, I don't charge money for reading, I know."

"Mother, I beg you, let me go to school, and I will come back to work on holiday, the husband said, when the farming is busy, he will give me a holiday."

Woman: "You are not allowed to go! I said you are not allowed to go, but you are not allowed to go! If you go to study, what do people in the village think of us?"

"Noisy, noisy!" The man walked into the yard and said to the woman, "You just can't control her!"

Woman: "You care! She clamored to go to school!"

The man frowned and said, "Isn't this a nonsense? From ten miles and eight villages, Widow Zhao sent the girl to study. She points to the girl because there is no man in her family, and our family is not without men."

Woman: "I said the same, she won't listen! What can I do!"

Man: "Isn't Da Zhuang taking a holiday these days? When he comes back, tell him to tell me about this girl, he is a scholar, so he knows better than us."

When the woman heard her husband mention the eldest son, her face also smiled: "That is, we will be tested for the champion when we grow up! There is no way to persuade a girl."

"Go and go, don't squat there anymore." The woman shouted at Er Ya, "Go and collect firewood."

Erya: "You let me go to school and I will pick it up again!"

The woman laughed angrily: "If you don't pick it up, then you don't eat, go hungry! Whenever you stop arguing about reading, eat again when you want."

Er Ya: "If you don't eat, you won't eat!"

However, that night, Er Ya was so hungry that she couldn't sleep. She sneaked into the field to dig potatoes to eat, set fire to the field, and buried the burned wood after eating.

Just three days later, Erya didn't touch any oil stars, and didn't eat anything during the day, only secretly went to dig potatoes in the field at night.

"Da Zhuang is back!" Before Erya entered the door, she heard the happy voice of her parents.

She pouted, anyway, since childhood, her elder brothers and younger brothers have been the treasures of her parents, what is she?I don’t worry about breaking the rocks on the ground, and no one wants to care about them.

Erya didn't expect her elder brother to speak for herself. Her brother, like her parents, felt that she would marry a girl in the future and send her to school, which would be someone who will get married when it is cheaper.

"Where is Erya?" She heard her eldest brother ask inside.

Her mother said: "Where did you go? I have been angry with me and your father these few days. I have to go to school and don't see if I am reading materials. Besides, there are no girls studying. "

"Outside people said to send girls to school, they are all from the south, we don't want to send them to the north."

Er Ya curled her lips when she heard this.

Da Zhuang said: "Mother, I went to the city and found that many women from the south of the city were working, all of whom had read books, and they were also in charge of work. They would get two dollars for less than a month."

The woman said at a glance: "Goodbye, that's great, let alone two money, two money is enough for our family for a long time."

Unlike in the south, road construction in the north is inconvenient. Although the folk customs are simple, they don’t communicate too much with the outside world. People live in isolation. The new dynasty has been established for so long and has been promoting the same slogan for boys and girls. How much impact it has on them.

Da Zhuang said: "Er Ya misses school, so just ask her to study. Not to mention the examiner in the future, it would be nice to find a job in charge."

Woman: "She just became a steward. Will she still have to get married in the future? Be another housewife? It has nothing to do with our family. Ask her to go to school and there will be one less person in the family who can work."

Er Ya listened, feeling uncomfortable.

She still remembers Widow Zhao’s daughter, Yueniang, who used to live the same way as her. Later, Widow Zhao sent Yueniang to the college in the city despite her relatives’ obstruction. Yueniang learned how to read and plan to play. , Because the abacus is really good, some shop owners in the city have asked her if she would like to go to their shop as a cashier after graduation.

Yueniang also told her that if you go to such a big shop as a cashier, you can get a cash at the worst one month.

Among them, the highest bidder was willing to give her half a month.

"If you don't study, how can you earn so much money?" Yueniang smiled happily at the time, and said to Erya, "You have to go to school earlier. I am going to be late. If you go now, more After studying for a few years, maybe I can still take the scientific examination and become a high official!"

"I heard that there are female adults in the capital!"

Er Ya didn't expect to be a high official in the scientific examination.

She just doesn't want to keep doing farm work at home, marry a man like her father and have a few babies.

That day, she felt terrible even thinking about it.

Da Zhuang sighed, "Mother, Erya was born in your stomach too. She is really married and your daughter. Besides, there is a law now. If something happens to my third brother, second Ah, you have to end your old age."

"She can earn more money after reading, and only when she can stand firm in her husband's house can she honor you."

The woman waved her hand: "I don't want her to be filial, I have two sons!"

For them, it is a great sin for a woman to have no sons. Whoever has more sons can raise his head higher.

The more sons, the better. As for daughters—who are always going to get married, they are not allowed to change marriages now.

Had it not been for a better life, these girls would have been drowned.

This is the custom of their place.

Da Zhuang sighed, "Mother, you should go for a walk with my dad and look outside."

Woman: "What are you looking at?"

Da Zhuang: "I'll take Erya away this time, and let her go to school with me. It just happens that the first grade is about to recruit new students, so I first apply for a name, and school will start in September in the second half of the year."

The woman rolled her eyes and showed her son: "You don't need money for studying, but you need money for clothes, meals, and accommodation."

Da Zhuang has nothing to say.

His mother didn't make sense, and father didn't make sense.

Er Ya wiped her tears outside.

Her parents love her elder brother the most, and her elder brother rarely speaks for her.

Er Ya squatted in the corner, crying with her head buried.

When she came home, she had already had dinner at home. She was growing up and eating a lot. She went to the kitchen and found only half a bun, and ate it quickly.

"What are you doing?"

Erya turned her head and saw Da Zhuang standing at the door of the kitchen. She sniffed and screamed, "I want you to control?!"

Da Zhuang: "I heard my mother say that you want to go to school."

Er Ya muffled and said, "What use do I think? I can't read it anyway. It's like that. I won't come back when I am married. When I give birth to a baby, regardless of male or female, I will send them to study. "

Da Zhuang squatted down: "I have a way, you can study if you listen to me."

Er Ya didn't believe it: "Really?"

Da Zhuang's face was determined: "Why did I lie to you? I have no good."

Er Ya still didn't believe it: "Why are you helping me?"

When she was a child, Da Zhuang did not bully her less, and told her to lose money with her companions, because she stole a piece and only he could eat meat.

Did you go to school and Da Zhuang changed his face?Reading can make you stronger?

Da Zhuang: "The day I went to the city, you were waiting on the side of the road. I would call the bullock cart to stop and take you there."

Erya's eyes widened: "But, but I went to the city to register, I still have to go back to the village, they won't let me go in September, and I can't go to school."

Da Zhuang smiled and said, "What's the matter? You don't leave after you go to the city. Waiting for the beginning of school. This is called cooking rice with raw rice, and they have to do it if they don't."

Er Ya hesitated: "Then...I lived for so long, where did I get the money?"

Da Zhuang: "I organized a poetry club with a few classmates in the city. I nominated those merchants to write poetry. I can earn some money and I have a place to live. As long as you save a little bit, you won't die.

Er Ya nodded desperately: "I save it! I can only eat one potato a day with such a big fist! I can't eat much!"

Da Zhuang rubbed Erya's head: "That's all for sure."

Er Ya grabbed the hem of the big clothes, raised her head, and cried out sincerely for the first time: "Brother."
