Chapter 295: Three Kids and Two Dogs Standing in Punishment
In September of the same year, Shen Xia bought a large piece of flat land in Fanhua Village and began to build the town.
There is a store in the front and a yard in the back, so it can be used for both commercial and home purposes.
At the same time, a college was also built.
Originally, I planned to let Fan Zifu come to teach, but later because the family had too many businesses and was too busy, he simply didn't have the time.
So we decided to hire someone else to teach.
In this way, men from several surrounding villages all got jobs.
The town was built two years ago, but there are some smaller houses. The smaller ones are convenient for people working in the factory to live in.
It is equivalent to public rental housing, but this type of house is not facing the street, it is equivalent to a residential community.
Everyone can live with their husband and children. When the wife goes to work, it is convenient for the children to go to school.
The town was carefully designed by Shen Xia and it looks very beautiful.
Unless someone in this village has a house, everyone would want to buy it.
There are three sizes of houses to choose from: large, medium and small.
Shen Xia didn't plan to make money from this house, so he sold them at a price slightly higher than the cost.
So the price is still within everyone's acceptable range, but one still has to work hard for a few years to be able to afford it.
But as long as you buy a house here, you can go to the college at half price.
Everyone is very willing.
Although I can’t study for free like the people in the factory, half price is good!
In fact, most of them are free, because most of the people who buy yards here are factory workers.
A small number of people are outsiders who buy the courtyard specifically for the purpose of studying here.
Because later Shen Xia built several factories, which produced handicrafts, such as velvet flowers, soaps, and wine.
So there are a lot of workers.
After the academy was built, three teachers were hired.
They teach literature, and Shen Xia will also go to teach.
Shen Xia is responsible for teaching arithmetic.
At first, the three teachers were a little dissatisfied, thinking that Shen Xia, a woman, could not teach anything.
The reason they come here to teach is simply because of the good pay.
The three of them were curious and went to listen.
As a result, I couldn't stop listening to it.
Are you listening along with the students?
Shen Xiajue's village is engaged in business, so every child coming out of the village must be good at arithmetic.
If these children can read and count, they can be of use to themselves in the future.
After the houses of Zhao's three uncles were repaired in the town, they also bought them.
Of course, they have also made a lot of money in the past two years. The three uncles don’t have to raise silkworms, and the three cousins can go out with Song Jin to do business. The commission is not low!
All three of them bought large apartments.
Next to each other.
The town is about one kilometer away from the Song family's house. Shen Xia deliberately built it in a location that is neither too far nor too close, for fear that it would be too noisy if it was too close.
Spring goes and autumn comes
Prosperous for fifty-four years.
When Shen Xia came here, it was the 49th year of Changsheng, and five years had passed unknowingly.
Shen Xia is almost twenty years old now, from fifteen.
Everyone has made great progress in recent years. My eldest brother, who was originally a captain, has become the fourth-rank General Dingyuan after many battles.
As for what position Gu Zizhan held, Shen Xia didn't know, because Shen Xia never asked about his affairs.
Over the years, Xiao Bei has spent quite a lot of time with Song Jiang at his home. Perhaps Song's mother, who was reluctant at first, gradually accepted it, so Xiao Bei and the Song family developed a subtle relationship.
During the years of Song and Ming dynasties, he traveled across the country and worked as a minister of agriculture for the country's agricultural development. In fact, this was all thanks to Zheng Jinshu.
If it were somewhere else, if you had made such a great contribution, the credit would have been taken by the people in power long ago, but Zheng Jinshu did not do that. Every time there was a new development, he would report the situation truthfully in a letter.
Over the years, Song and Ming visited the entire Jin and Yuan Dynasties, teaching everyone how to grow crops, and the grain production of the Jin and Yuan Dynasties increased by leaps and bounds.
So even though the current Majesty has never met Song Ming, he has been promoted to a higher position. He is now a third-rank official in charge of agriculture. Although his rank is high, he does not have much real power.
He was originally going to be recruited to Beijing, but Song Mingjue believed that only at the grassroots level could he help the people, so he did not go.
However, the emperor said he could go at any time, so all officials knew that there was a man named Song Ming, who was a very powerful minister of agriculture, and who changed the grain production of the Jin Yuan Dynasty with his advanced planting techniques.
Song Ming has been traveling all over the country in recent years, but he comes back every year and brings many special things for his family.
As for Song Jin, all the business of the Song family was managed by him. He would go out often, but never for too long, as many things were left to his three cousins.
Because he has trained his three cousins to be able to stand on their own.
Shen Xia didn't know how much wealth the Song family had now, but it was definitely immeasurable.
Song Jin would show it to Shen Xia every year, but Shen Xia was lazy and just wanted to be a freeloader, so he didn't take care of it.
Song Yun passed the imperial examination a few years ago and will go to Beijing for the imperial examination this year.
Xiaowu is seventeen years old this year and Xiaotian is thirteen years old.
Both of them are already scholars.
The imperial examination will also begin this year.
What changes has Shen Xia undergone in recent years?
She gave birth to two more sons. The second son, Song Yiyan, was his second brother Song Ming's, and the third son, Song Yifan, was Song Jin's.
When giving birth to the second child, Shen Xia asked the eldest and third children to take medicine. The medicine was given by Doctor Cui, who said it was very effective. This medicine can make men infertile for a month and will not affect their lives in the later stages.
After the three children were born, Shen Xia took the medicine because she didn't want to have any more children.
This year Song Yiyi is four years old, Song Yiyan is three years old, and Song Yifan is only two years old.
The house is in chaos every day. Fortunately, there are many servants at home, so Shen Xia doesn't have to take care of the children by herself. Otherwise, there would be three children at home that even these three dogs would dislike.
But don't go crazy.
Oh!
wrong!
Dogs don't hate --
Pingping and An'an love their three children very much. They really follow their parents wherever they go.
Just after the Chinese New Year.
The weather is good today.
Shen Xia sat in the yard around the stove and made tea.
"woo woo woo woo--"
Shen Xia heard the voice and turned to look.
The second child cried heartbrokenly.
And the one with snot all over his mouth.
"Mother——"
"Stop - don't talk first." Then he looked at Jixiang next to him and quickly wiped it clean. He had to eat it with his mouth open!
It makes me sick just thinking about it.
Hey--
Wait for Jixiang to pack it for him.
There were still small tears on the little face.
"What's wrong?" Shen Xia gently wiped the tears from his little face.
"My sister and brother wouldn't let Ping Ping An An play with me, saying that Ping Ping and An An were theirs."
"and then?"
"If you're in peace, you really won't play with me."
Shen Xia's face was full of black lines.
Shen Xia looked at Jixiang: "Call them over."
After a while, two little men came running over, Yifan followed slowly behind, and finally the two dogs followed.
Shen Xia looked at Yi Yi and Yi Fan: "You two should stop Ping An An from playing with Yi Yan."
The two little guys didn't say anything.
Yiyan is just like his father, the most honest and usually won't lie.
Unlike Yifan, although he is the youngest, he has the smartest brain.
Shen Xia looked at the two of them without saying anything: "Go stand over there for half an hour as punishment."
The two little guys glanced at each other and said something, then stood there obediently.
Only then did the second brother laugh.
Shen Xia looked at him and said, "What are you laughing at? Come over and stand together. Brothers share happiness and difficulties together."
Yi Yi said, "That's because I'm not a brother, so I just need to stand."
Shen Xia glared at her.
Shut up, little girl.
So when Song Yun came over
Then I saw a scene where three children and two dogs were standing together as punishment.
He raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously.
