Chapter 228 Let Bai Yihong give a speech

In Houshan Village, Mr. Wang of the Wang family is very happy because the school in the village will be officially opened tomorrow morning. The children in the village will have a place to study in the future. Maybe there will be a few more children in the village in a few years. , and even a few more scholars.

He stroked his beard, no, he wanted to talk to Wu Xiucai in private. To teach children how to read, they must also teach their thoughts and morals. Don't give birth to a scholar like the boss of the Bai family, just become a scholar. Scholars cannot benefit the village, but only bring harm to people.

At the same time, Ms. Wang Su was worried about when her second son would be willing to marry her. Now that she was asking the child what he wanted, she couldn't force him to get married. People said that forceful melons are not sweet, and she didn't want to Ruined his son's future happiness.

And Wang Minglu was also very happy tonight, with a smile on his face from time to time, and even laughed silly while sitting there. Wang Su's eyes suddenly widened when she saw it, oh, no matter what, he is the second son of her family. I feel enlightened, and I seem to have a sweetheart!

Wang Su asked Wang Minglu to help her with work, but she actually asked him to go out so she could talk to him in private.

"Minglu, do you have someone in your heart? You are your mother's child. Why can't your mother see it? Don't deny it." Wang Su said in a low voice. She was afraid that her second son would be thin-skinned and be criticized by other members of the family. People are sorry to hear that.

When Wang Minglu heard what his mother said, his face turned red. It was already dark now, and the light in the yard was not good, so Wang Su didn't see his red face clearly.

"Mom, just leave it alone." Wang Minglu lowered his head, and it took him a long time to say this.

"Oh, can't you tell me about it? Mom, tell me, whoever you like should propose marriage as soon as possible. If someone else takes the first step, you will regret it." Ms. Wang Su showed a look of hatred for iron. .

Wang Minglu's face turned redder, "Mom, don't ask, it's still early. I'll tell you later. I have something to do tomorrow, so I'll go back to the house and sleep." After that, he ran away quickly.

Wang Sushi looked at his back and raised her eyebrows, humming, that was the flesh that fell from her body, she still couldn't understand him? If she pays attention, she will definitely know which girl she is from.

…

Early the next morning, Bai Ruozhu's family all wore newly made clothes, made donkey carts and hurried back to Houshan Village. However, they didn't take Xiaosi with them. They were afraid that Bai Yibo would hold a grudge and cause trouble for Xiaosi, so they simply left him and Fang Guizhi to look after the house in the west courtyard.

Xiaosi also seemed to really not want to go back to his old house, as if he couldn't escape once he returned, saying that he could just practice calligraphy at home.

Bai Ruozhu hugged Xiao Dengdeng. Today, Xiaodengdeng was wearing a beautiful red thin coat and a red satin hat sewn with cinnamon twigs. She looked particularly festive.

Speaking of which, Bai Yihong was the most energetic person today. He seemed to be five or six years younger. Even Lin Ping'er couldn't help but purse her lips and snicker when looking at him, and said to Bai Ruozhu: "Look at your father's happiness."

Bai Ruozhu is very optimistic about her father's current status. Her father was invited by the village chief to attend the opening ceremony of the school, which shows that he has a certain reputation in the village. For her father, these are not to satisfy his vanity, but to find a sense of existence and gain recognition from others. For Bai Yihong, who has been ignored by his parents, it is really a new beginning.

The family did not return empty-handed and bought some snacks and fruits for the old house. As for whether the old house should be kept or not, it was their business, but Bai Ruozhu felt that the old lady would not be willing to throw it away.

In addition, they also brought some gifts to several families they were close friends with in the village, including Zhou Deshun's family, Grandma Li's family next door, and the Zhang family who lent Bai Ruozhu a stroller when something happened to their old house.

Soon, the family arrived at Houshan Village. Bai Yihong took his two sons to the village chief's house, while Bai Ruozhu and her mother went to visit a friend's house and gave away the things they brought, otherwise they would go there later. Old house, these things may not be left.

Zhou Deshun's wife was particularly happy to see the two of them, and took them into the house to talk about each other. During this period, Peach Blossom Lady also came out to say hello, but she seemed reluctant. Bai Ruozhu just called her politely and didn't say much. Soon Peach Blossom slipped back into the house, and neither she nor Peach Blossom ever came out again.

Zhou Deshun's wife shook her head helplessly and didn't say much. Bai Ruozhu didn't care what Tao Hua and her daughter thought of her. She was really afraid that Tao Hua would get too close to her, so she had to find a way to avoid Tao Hua.

"I'm telling you, Mrs. Wang was taken back to her parents' home to recover from her injuries. Ruozhu and her uncle have been lying at home these days. I guess they will be able to get up today. Your old lady is scolding people outside every day. Mrs. Wang also scolds you, but Wang Jiaerlang was on duty at the county government and told the villagers what happened when he came back. No one said you were at fault, but they looked down on Bai Yibo and his wife even more." Zhou Deshun's wife lowered her voice and spoke.

"Thanks to that kid Minglu, otherwise we wouldn't be able to explain clearly." Lin Ping'er said gratefully.

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but think of Wang Su's troubles, and thought that Wang Minglu was really a good person. She didn't know what kind of girl he would like. He had quite high standards. Just like her second brother, he was not in a hurry to get married. Look, his mother is in a hurry.

The mother and daughter chatted with Zhou Deshun's wife for a while, then left and went to other people's homes, but they made an appointment to watch the opening ceremony of the school together later.

The two of them went to other people's houses, and they all exchanged pleasantries. Everyone said that they had grown up a lot after not seeing Deng Deng for a few days, but Bai Ruozhu, who hugged Deng Deng every day, didn't have any obvious feelings.

By the time the opening ceremony of the school was about to begin, Bai Ruozhu's mother and daughter and Zhou Deshun's wife had already found a good place to stand. Looking at it again, there were so many people here today. Everyone from the village, old and young, came, and those standing at the door of the school It was so full that people who arrived late couldn't see inside. Some people found the tree next to it, climbed up and sat on the tree branch to watch.

The village chief was particularly happy today, and the wrinkles on his smiling face became deeper. He did not urge people to go to the fields to do farm work. According to him, no one should miss such a great day.

When the auspicious time came, the big red firecrackers were lit and crackled. Bai Ruozhu was afraid of scaring Deng Deng, so she hurriedly covered his ears. Who knew that Deng Deng was very bold, and opened his big eyes and excitedly looked at the firecrackers. Looking in the direction, I'm not afraid at all.

The children in the village covered their ears and screamed happily. You must know that farmers rarely buy firecrackers. Even during the Chinese New Year, not every household has the money to set off firecrackers, so the children in the village are particularly curious about setting off firecrackers.

Afterwards, the ceremony went on smoothly. The village chief also introduced Wu Xiucai to everyone and asked Wu Xiucai to say a few words. Then the village chief suddenly looked at Bai Yihong and said, "If this school in our village can be run, Bai Yihong also has a He deserves a lot of credit, let him speak to everyone today!"
