Chapter 007 Chapter 7
Whether Song Lehe took a shower that night, she knew the result from the next day when Mrs. Li praised her new clothes that they matched well.
Indeed, Mrs. Li has a very good taste. Different from the old indigo clothes provided by Lan Phoenix before, this set of straight collar, lotus color, narrow sleeves and red skirt makes her look much better than before, making her look even more beautiful. People are more delicate than flowers, as if a goddess has come to this world. Even Lan Fenghuang, who had been with him the longest before, couldn't take his eyes away, let alone Li Huaijin. After he saw Song Lehe today, he returned to the state of not daring to look up yesterday.
Song Lehe touched his temples, controlled his fingers that were so embarrassed that he wanted to pull out his hair, and said uncomfortably: "Thank you, Mrs. Li, for your understanding."
"It's all good, you have good foundation, and I have good taste. "Mrs. Li pulled Song Lehe around twice, admired it happily, and then looked at Song Lehe who simply tied a low ponytail and said, "Oh, I forgot to prepare a hairpin for you. Why don't you give me a hairpin? Go there and have a look, pick something suitable to wear first, and after you finish your business, I will take you to get some jewelry."
"Wait a minute," Song Lehe said calmly, standing still, determined not to be distracted by Mrs. Li. He pulled her away and said, "The matter of hairpins is not urgent. Let's do business first. Sister Lan, can you go?"
Song Lehe turned his eyes to Lan Fenghuang for help. He didn't know how to tie his hair at all. This low ponytail I finally succeeded after researching at night. Even if he had a hairpin, he would not wear it, not to mention he had no money! I always felt that if he kept talking, Mrs. Li would probably cover all his expenses, but it was too embarrassing. He was not a freeloader. Pretty boy. I can't owe this favor any longer, I still have to find a profitable job and become independent as soon as possible.
Lan Fenghuang looked at Song Lehe who was inexplicably frightened with some humor, and said with a smile: "You can leave, but don't you really want to change your hairpins? I guarantee that aunt's collection is all fashionable, absolutely beautiful, and even if it's not enough, "
Thank you for your kindness, madam, but it still doesn't work. I've relied on Sister Lan for all my care since I came here, and I don't know how to repay you. How can I rely on madam's kindness to stand firm here in the future?" "Heels, it's not too late to hang out with Madam again."
Song Lehe made it clear that his self-esteem did not allow him to keep using their things. If there was a back-and-forth, he would definitely not be polite, but now he really doesn't have enough confidence, so he still hopes to focus on business and enjoy things first and later.
After hearing this, Mrs. Li could understand Song Lehe's choice and liked this girl even more. After all, who wouldn't like a child who is self-respecting and self-respecting and knows how to repay kindness? So she waved her hand and told Song Lehe that she would not force him, but that she would always be welcome here and hoped that she would come as a guest often after she settled in.
"I have only given birth to two sons who look like monkeys. Now they have gone thousands of miles away to study. My daughter, Fenghuang, says she is practicing martial arts and doesn't come to see me often. My life is very boring. I saw her yesterday If you feel that you are compatible, you can come to me as soon as you have settled the matter and just stay with me as an old woman."
Mrs. Li has already said this, what else can Song Lehe do except agree. But he actually quite likes Mrs. Li. She always reminds him of his mother.
The group finally went out. After walking to the Yamen, Uncle Li helped Song Lehe settle down. Uncle Li turned out a stack of yellow books, intending to ask Song Lehe about his situation based on the contents above, so he could start writing. Unexpectedly, Song Lehe subconsciously took the yellow books, and after flipping through them, he simply read the ones on the desk. Just start writing with pen and paper.
Lan Fenghuang asked in surprise: "Lehe, have you read a book?"
Song Lehe paused and said, "It doesn't count as a read, it's just that you can read and write."
Of course he has read a book, anyway. He's a college graduate. It's just that what Lan Fenghuang was talking about should be the Four Books and Five Classics that scholars in this era must read, so he didn't understand these. In fact, he can write calligraphy and traditional Chinese characters thanks to the elective courses in college, otherwise he would probably be illiterate.
No, that's not right. Song Lehe glanced at the progress of the machine's self-test on the sub-brain and thought: This thing seems to be loaded with local language characters, so the writing is just ugly at most. Thanks to the large calligraphy homework required by the elective course teacher, his calligraphy has basically escaped the category of dog crawling.
After Song Lehe finished writing, he put down his pen and handed the paper to Uncle Li for inspection, when Lan Fenghuang suddenly took his hand. Then he saw Lan Fenghuang holding his hand tightly, looking at him expectantly and saying: "Lehe, are you interested in coming to our Miao village to be a Sinology teacher? The salary is very high, and the children are also very well-behaved. " Ah
" Song Lehe was stunned for a moment, and before he could answer, he heard Lan Fenghuang complaining.
"The sinology master before was so annoying. He actually refused to let the girls in the village take classes together. He didn't pay much attention to teaching. He just read in front of the book every day. He also insisted on money. The conditions offered by our village are the best around. Damn it, that guy even used various excuses to ask for money from the village and the parents of the students. After saving a sum of money, he ran away without saying anything in advance, saying that he was going to take the imperial examination. We were caught off guard and were not prepared at all.
There are no sinology teachers in the village now, and it is difficult to find people at this time. Those who have further ideas have already set off to the provincial capital or the capital to prepare for the imperial examination, and they plan to stay. Most of the people have been invited away by various villages. We thought that the guy wanted to establish a long-term relationship with our village and did not plan to participate in the imperial examination, so we were willing to give him so much money and did not find anyone else. Unexpectedly He let me go."
Song Lehe asked with some confusion: "Why does the Miao village need a Sinology teacher?" Could it be that you created a temporary position after you found out that I can read and write Chinese characters.
Before Lan Fenghuang could speak, Uncle Li, who had finished checking and filing, continued: "Because there are policies to take care of it. If there are many Confucian students in a Miao village, generally speaking, they can get some benefits such as reduction of corvee and farmland for cattle. Fenghuang'er himself and the members of the Five Poison Sect may not need it, but their relatives and friends do."
Lan Fenghuang nodded and added: "Moreover, Prince Mu's Mansion is building schools in Yunnan, and there are many other villages and other ethnic groups among them. If there are no people in our village, we will not be able to hold our heads up when we reach the provincial capital."
For minority leaders like Lan Fenghuang, these small favors are not appreciated by them . I took it to heart, but I couldn't let go of the face and the opportunity to talk to the people above me. The former means status before the fight starts. Only with high status can you get more benefits, while the latter means more.
Lan Fenghuang did just take over as the leader of the Five Poison Sect, but she didn't just become the leader of the Miao village where she was. The disciples of the Five Poison Sect come from many different Miao villages. Unlike most martial arts sects, it is somewhat similar to the Chamber of Commerce in the south, but closer. It is precisely because of the years of discrimination and suppression by the Central Plains sects that after Yunnan completely returned to the rule of the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains, many Miao villages united to form the current Five Poison Sect out of the need for communication.
It is precisely because of this that even though He Hongyao's sister is the leader of the Five Poison Sect, she was unable to suppress her theft of the sect's treasures. Instead, she was implicated and lost her position as leader. Because after this, Lan Fenghuang was able to seize the opportunity to become the leader of the Five Poison Sect because of his high martial arts skills and the strength of the village.
Song Lehe didn't know these things at this time, but after learning that Uncle Li and Lan Fenghuang did not have an airborne position for the Sinology teacher in the Miao village, he was indeed a little moved.
If it is true as Lan Fenghuang said, then this job is really a good position that can repay Lan Fenghuang's kindness and allow him to support his family.
"Okay, then I will shamelessly agree. If you feel that my teaching is not good enough, you can tell me directly after you find someone who can replace me." Song Lehe did not hesitate, he knew the priorities of the matter. He is now the equivalent of a fire-fighting coach. He will be the one to take over first. If the coaching fails, he will be replaced later. By then, it is time to find someone to take over.
Seeing that his household registration had been completed, Song Lehe turned to Lan Fenghuang and asked: "Did that gentleman leave any books or class schedules? If not, can you take me to the bookstore to see all the enlightenment books? "What? You don't have to buy a book, I can just read it once."
Lan Fenghuang shook his head, and then said with some surprise: "He didn't leave anything behind, he even took away the paper and pen. I just need to read it once." Do you have a photographic memory?"
Of course Song Lehe himself is not a genius with a photographic memory. If he really had this ability, he wouldn't have barely studied in college. But the bionic body he is using now has this function, and it can be stored after scanning it, so he admitted it without feeling guilty.
Seeing Song Lehe nodding, Lan Fenghuang said happily: "Of course, it's time for me to write some notes for the private school in the village."
Then she looked at Li Huaijin and said: "I plan to accompany Lehe to the bookstore first. , Do you mind being delayed for a while?"
Li Huaijin shook his head and expressed that he didn't mind.
After yesterday's conversation, he also knew how simple his previous idea was. Without the force of the Five Poison Sect or the power of someone with a higher official position to intimidate him, he might not be able to take away Lin Shishu's wife and daughter safely. After all, he as a man could bear to ride around on horseback, but Uncle Shi's wife was in frail health, and the sister, who was younger than his brother, couldn't bear any accidents. Children died too easily.
Speaking of which, Lin Shishu’s previous letter seemed to mention his daughter’s name. Was it Shiyin?
