The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

Chapter 85



Zhou Xiaoyuan took them to wash up. The two children were very sensible and obedient and wiped their faces with a handkerchief.

As a result, when I looked up, I saw Zhou Xiaoyuan in a daze.

Nini and Archie immediately looked at each other, and together they went over to tug at the corner of Zhou Xiaoyuan's clothes, and asked puzzledly: "Mom, what's wrong with you? What happened? You look so worried."

Hearing their voices, Zhou Xiaoyuan came back to her senses and patted their heads before talking about reading.

Ask them if they have any thoughts about going to school.

When she heard these two words, Nini didn't quite understand what they meant, but the older Archie's eyes suddenly lit up.

Obviously there was some expectation, but after noticing Nini's expression next to him, he restrained his expectations sensibly, shook his head obediently, and said, "Nini just goes to school, I don't need to."

As soon as Archie said this, Nini blinked and didn't know what to say. She glanced at Zhou Xiaoyuan again, confused.

But he was obviously too sensible, and Zhou Xiaoyuan was helpless.

She patted Archie on the head and scolded: "What are you talking about? You and Nini are the same. I just asked you when you want to go to school, but you are definitely going to go."

Although Nini is not very sensible yet, Zhou Xiaoyuan had already made up her mind the moment the question came out of her mouth.

Even if you don't go to school, you still need to know the words you should know.

Otherwise, if she comes to such a trip and suffers a big loss because of her lack of education, isn't she, a mother-in-law, kidding?

So before Archie could refute, Zhou Xiaoyuan told him not to worry so much and took Nini to bed first. The little boy was obviously still a little worried and secretly glanced at Zhou Xiaoyuan.

But he didn’t say anything.

Zhou Xiaoyuan knew what this glance meant, and she couldn't help but become more determined, but the problem before her was equally serious.

She sat there deep in thought, thinking that money problems would inevitably be tricky.

But she didn't expect Mrs. Zhao Wu to come over at this time. She took out a cloth bag and stuffed it into Zhou Xiaoyuan's hand without saying anything.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, she subconsciously pinched the contents of the cloth bag and soon discovered that it was a pile of broken silver. Judging from the weight, it was estimated that Zhao Wu had saved it for a long time.

She reacted immediately, pushed the cloth bag back, shook her head and said, "Why, you can't even trust me now?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao Wu shook her head, her expression still worried.

"That's not what I meant. Don't think so wildly. I just want to help Nini and Archie. What's more, I didn't say that we can't make back the money. Just think of it as what I borrowed from you."

If Zhou Xiaoyuan really planned to send her two children to school, she might accept Zhao Wu's reason.

But now she shook her head and still didn't want it.

When Zhao Wu saw her caring about her temper, she immediately became anxious. She opened her mouth and said, "It's a big deal for children to study. Regardless of whether they can pass the exam or not, we have to let them try it now that we have this ability... If they can't read big characters, It would be a pity to have only one.”

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Xiaoyuan was the first to blink her eyes, obviously she didn't expect Zhao Wu to have such awareness.

She smiled, feeling helpless for a moment.

"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I say I wouldn't let them learn to read? Just be careful as I said, I'm paying attention."

But this time Zhao Wu apparently

Not that easy to fool, she stared at Zhou Xiaoyuan suspiciously, her expression a little helpless.

"Don't be brave. Where can we find the money to send two children to school at this time? Just accept this money. This is the private money I saved before. It's pure."

Zhao Wu was resolute, but Zhou Xiaoyuan was even more resolute than her. She shook her head and refused directly, but also explained.

"Well, in that case, let me tell you-"

Only then did Zhou Xiaoyuan tell the truth about what she had just thought, and pointed out: "Since it is too expensive to go to school, it is okay for us not to go to school, but you are right in the same way, how can a child be illiterate? So..."

"So?" Zhao Wu repeated, her expression becoming more and more suspicious. She probably still retained trust in Zhou Xiaoyuan, but couldn't figure out what she could think of at this time.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Xiaoyuan burst into laughter and said helplessly: "But have you forgotten? I can read."

That's right, this is Zhou Xiaoyuan's trump card.

She patiently talked things over with Zhao Wu, and pointed out: "I can do accounts and read. As long as I go to the street and buy the Four Books and Five Classics and come back, won't this matter be solved? I can teach them myself."

The words sounded nice, but Mrs. Zhao Wu looked surprised. She obviously didn't take Zhou Xiaoyuan to heart and only thought she was joking.

So I had to say: "...Okay, it's okay if you don't want to say it."

"But if you encounter something difficult, you can requisition my money at any time. In the worst case, I will borrow it from you. I believe you will be able to pay it back sooner or later."

After Zhao Wu finished speaking with confidence, she patted Zhou Xiaoyuan again.

shoulder, then turned and walked away.

Zhou Xiaoyuan, who was left behind, looked helpless.

I thought to myself that I had clearly stated my thoughts, but why didn’t Zhao Wu believe a word he said? Could it be that he didn’t believe that he could teach?

In fact, Zhou Xiaoyuan has never thought about this herself. After all, she has never been in this industry, but for now, this is indeed the best way. After all, her family really can't afford it.

But of course, if he wants to teach his two children to read, he has to spend more time at home.

Otherwise, if you care about the beginning and not the end, sooner or later something will get messed up.

With this in mind, Zhou Xiaoyuan began to think seriously, and tried to plan her daily schedule, so accurately that everything should be marked at what time.

Let’s not say whether this itinerary is useful, but at least it gives Zhou Xiaoyuan some reference goals.

After writing those things, she shook the rice paper.

Seeing the ink marks on it dry, Zhou Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out and thought that she could finally sleep.

The next day, Zhou Xiaoyuan and Zhao Wu woke up early together. Zhao Wu obviously didn't take what happened yesterday to heart and just regarded it as a minor incident. When she saw Zhou Xiaoyuan, she even said hello to her.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was also smiling. She slept well that night. She was naturally in a good mood and was busy with Zhao Wu.

The two of them set up the stall before dawn.

Because of all the tricks Zhou Xiaoyuan has done before, she actually has a lot of repeat customers here.

At the same time, some people came over to visit after hearing about the grand event a few days ago. Zhou Xiaoyuan welcomed all comers with a smile.

This resulted in her business being exceptionally good for some reason, and she also had a very mysterious person.

The strange thing is that there are always people who buy a lot of snacks and say that many people in their family want to bring breakfast.
