Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All

Chapter 267: Chapter 212: Thoughts

”In that case, everyone will leave home. If we can really move to a village near the county, the family will have more time together, right?”

No one thought about going into the county town; even Uncle Liu’s suggestion was to go to villages around the county.

After all, the Jiang family was rooted in farming; without the fields and crops, they’d have nothing, be nothing, know nothing.

Even Xiao Hua had to admit this, let alone the fact that her special space could only be fully utilized in a rural setting.

Xiao Hua secretly nodded, ”Second sister, you’re right. If we don’t go, we’ll have to separate from our older brother. Poor brother, he would have to leave home at just eleven or twelve.”

Since second sister said so, Xiao Hua was no longer worried.

She couldn’t believe it, if second sister could see these things, how could parents not understand?

Besides, who was their father? He was someone who, for his children, fled with nothing but his family, escaping malicious parents during war and turmoil!

Just from this, one could prove how much father cared about the children, and with Uncle Liu’s advice and suggestions, moving to the county was almost assured. ℯℯ𝑙.

Thinking this way, Xiao Hua felt relieved, turned over, and prepared for a nap.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xue sighed, ”I just promised to teach Xiao Hua how to embroider yesterday, please don’t move before I do so.”

It was clear second sister cared a lot about this, Xiao Hua squinted and held second sister’s hand.

”Don’t worry, second sister, there’s plenty of time. Big brother won’t start school in the county until next year, teaching Xiao Hua is totally doable.”

”Mm, but I’ll still talk to her this afternoon, tell her to focus when learning, practice more at home, at least learn several common patterns first.”

This way, even if they really moved, Xiao Hua could still take on embroidery orders.

Sleepiness crept up on Xiao Hua, and she yawned, ”Second sister, you seem to really like Xiao Hua?”

Xiao Xue smiled gently, ”Yes, Xiao Hua is the first one who came to me to learn embroidery.”

A thought flashed in Xiao Hua’s mind, but drowsiness overcame her, and she fell asleep before she could ask more.

Xiao Xue waited for Xiao Hua to speak, but when she looked up again, she saw Xiao Hua had closed her eyes, feeling helpless, she shook her head, pulled the thin blanket to cover her stomach, and then went to sleep together.

When mother came out of the study wanting to see what the children were up to, she found the sisters facing each other, holding hands and asleep.

This time, the study conversation was kept secret by the three adults, they didn’t hint to the children either, and even when Xiao Hua asked several times, she couldn’t find out anything.

But that’s for later.

Wei Ziang returned from the academy in the afternoon, immediately busy with coursework at home, having been late in the morning, he had to make up for the missed lessons at home in the afternoon.

Previously, Liu Hai went to school with Jiang Yu, but now he was no longer studying.

Upon learning Jiang Yu would study in the county town, Liu Yang proactively approached Jiang Hu to help arrange an assistant job for Liu Hai with an accountant.

For the first two years, there was almost no salary, but meals and accommodation were provided, and he could return home to rest one or two days each month, followed by formal learning.

Liu Hai had attended school for several years, was literate and capable.

Plus, he was clever, and with Liu Yang being talkative yet having substantial social skills, Liu Hai’s master seemed quite satisfied in the past two months.

Because Liu Hai found a good path, once he mastered the skills, he could earn a decent salary every month; a good accountant would never want for work.

This led villagers to start recognizing the importance of education for children; without study, without literacy, one could only stay in the village forever, wouldn’t even know why they got deceived.

But with any chance to step out, the fate of the whole family could change.

For instance, Liu Hai, if he worked hard, focused, established himself in town, and then helped pull up his younger brother, the Liu family could likely move entirely to town, avoiding a lifetime of farming.

This signal from the Liu family was picked up by many villagers who started sending their children to school in town over the past two months.

So Wei Ziang didn’t have to worry on his way home, plenty of people accompanied him.

After exchanging pleasantries with Jiang Yu and Liu Ze, and thanking the two brothers for their gifts, Wei Ziang dutifully returned to his room to study.
