Chapter 298 Not like a good person (please vote)
Li Xu's mother, An, was very happy to see Ying Bao and quickly brought out a plate of fruits.
Ying Bao thanked her and asked, "Aunt An, are you still used to being here?"
"Get used to it." Anshi said with a smile: "We and I are very comfortable here. Last month Jiang Cunzheng built a mushroom shed for us and asked me to learn to grow fungi."
Ying Bao was pleased and talked to her about Chu Man again.
An sighed: "That Chuman is a bit out of character. She often comes here to disturb my son. Alas, I can't explain it clearly, but she is getting more and more unreasonable. She even asked my son to teach her to read and write."
"My son refused several times. She didn't seem to understand people's words. She came again and again to deliver sachets and fans. One time, she even delivered a handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers."
An said helplessly: "The patriarch and her parents-in-law warned her, but not long after, she repeated her old tricks. She also said that her husband was Xu'er's good friend, and she would take care of our family on his behalf. Alas..."
Since I and my son live here as guests, it is really not easy for me to have arguments with others, let alone talk about each other, but this woman is like dog-skin plaster, sticking to her all day long, which really makes me angry to death.
The more Ying Bao listened, the more she felt that Chu Man's woman was not in her right mind and it was really a headache.
You could say she is stupid, but it's not like that, because she knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and she also knows how to use her own money to control Chen Laoshuan's family, and then uses her husband's identity to blackmail others.
It is estimated that Chu Man deliberately used this method to irritate the Chen family to express her dissatisfaction with the Chen Feng family.
But it doesn't matter if she seeks her own death, but it doesn't matter if she harms innocent people.
Ying Bao thought for a moment and walked around the school before saying goodbye and leaving.
When she came back, she told her father to ask someone to build a wooden fence outside the school yard and build a guard room.
After that, a villager was arranged to sit there and guard the door to prevent other people from entering, so as not to disturb the students in class.
Jiang Sanlang agreed with his daughter's suggestion and immediately arranged for someone to do it.
Within two days, the school yard was surrounded by a tall and strong wooden fence. Students were allowed to plant flowers, plants and gourd vines on the edge of the wooden fence, which was both beautiful and safe.
Afterwards, Jiang Sanlang moved the martial arts training ground to another location and built it next to the school. He also planned to build three tiled houses as classrooms and named them Wu Xiu Tang.
Of course, this matter must be discussed with the clan leader and village elders, and everyone must contribute together to build the martial arts hall.
According to Yingbao's vision, the school in Dongchen Village should have been expanded long ago. In the future, there will not only be a literature school, but also a martial arts school.
After finishing their liberal arts classes, students can go to a martial arts class next door to stretch their muscles and strengthen their bodies.
In their spare time, students who don’t like martial arts can also go to the backyard to plant some vegetables, water the fruit trees in the backyard, catch insects, and learn about herbs.
The plaque of Ai Chang Women's Medical Center is still there, and Yingbao plans to ask someone to build another women's medical center after the busy farming season is over, specifically to recruit female dolls from the village to learn medical skills.
They are not required to all become female doctors, but it is still necessary to understand some medical science.
Since ancient times, pregnancy and childbirth have been the most dangerous for women, especially pregnant women. Many died of dystocia or postpartum diseases.
There are also many newborn babies who die prematurely due to improper care.
Therefore, the Ai Chang Women's Medical Center must continue to open.
Yingbao is not short of money now, and building a few schools is just a drop in the bucket.
But in order to make people pay attention to women's education, she had to ask people to donate money, and then put a stone tablet with the name of the donor engraved on it at the entrance of the village to highlight her good deeds.
Ying Bao told her father her plan, and Jiang Sanlang also agreed.
Now my family and the people in the village are not short of money, but they are short of prestige.
With his reputation, he would even be given the upper hand when going to eat at other people's houses. This was a matter of honor for Beier.
Especially this year, there are so many people coming to Dongchen Village, which makes the village very lively.
Some people couldn't find a job for the time being, so they set up stalls on the roadside outside the village, selling baskets, straw shoes, coir raincoats, hats and other items they made themselves.
Many people from surrounding villages also came to join in the fun, bringing their own pickled vegetables, eggs, etc. to Nanpo for sale.
It’s even more outrageous these days. The roadside outside the village is full of stalls, selling vegetables, tofu, pork, and even vendors selling sundries. When many vendors arrive, they treat this place as a small market. city.
Because there are no less than a hundred families living on Nanpo, and everyone has a lot of money. During the busy farming season, there are especially many people buying meat and tofu.
Those little girls from other villages took the opportunity to visit the stalls to buy things, and secretly inquired about the young men from the East Village, especially those who were quite old and handsome, so they paid special attention to them.
Some people will also go into the village for a stroll, and their eyes will glow green when they see the rows of large blue brick houses.
Yingbao helped her family buy vegetables and meat these days, met many small vendors, and even met a tax collector.
The tax collector is so pervasive that I don't know whether the tax he collects goes into his own pocket or is paid into the national treasury.
However, the township officials were quite polite to the people of the East Village. Even though several East Village villagers set up stalls here, they did not collect taxes from them.
For example, Aunt Wang set up a melon and fruit stall at the intersection, selling peaches and apricots from her fruit trees and melons from the vegetable field. The business was pretty good.
The people who come to buy her melons and fruits are all people from other villages, because every household in the village grows melons and fruits, so these peaches, apricots and cantaloupes are no longer unusual.
Yingbao also saw that Sister Erni's mother, Leng, had also set up a stall here, selling sugar water made from apricots and peaches.
This sweet and sour fruit drink is very popular among everyone, especially the young ladies from other villages who want to have a bowl every time they come here.
When Mrs. Leng saw Ying Bao, she insisted on serving a bowl for her to taste, and would not let her go unless she tasted it.
Ying Bao had no choice but to sit at the small table and eat a bowl of fruit drink made with peaches and apricots.
At this time, Chen Zhao and his younger brother Xu Bao also came to visit the stall. When they saw Ying Bao, they immediately ran over: "Ying Bao, so you are here."
Ying Bao nodded and saw Xu Bao staring at the fruit pulp in her bowl, so she pushed half the bowl of fruit to him.
Xu Bao didn't mind it either, so he picked up the spoon and started eating.
Chen Zhao pulled Ying Bao aside and said quietly: "I'm telling you something, you must pay attention to it."
Ying Bao didn't know why: "What's the matter?"
"Chen Erya's father is back. He came to my house a few days ago and talked to me a lot. He also said that he wanted to make your house look good." Chen Zhao whispered: "I overheard this. Grandpa also told him not to be impulsive."
Ying Bao frowned: "What else did he say?"
Chen Zhao used his gloves and said in her ear: "He also said that he would take the eldest sister to a noble family to enjoy the blessings, but my grandfather did not agree."
Chen Wan is thirteen years old this year, and she is in her prime. She is very similar to Chen Changping. She is elegant and refined, and very beautiful.
Ying Bao: "Didn't he say which noble person he was?"
"No." Chen Zhao curled his lips and snorted: "Does he have such good intentions? I don't think he is a good person. He probably just saw his aunt remarry and deliberately wanted to deceive my eldest sister away and take revenge on our family."
