Chapter 793 793. Listless

   Ge Lihua commented sincerely, "Song Nian is really smart."

  Chu Qingzhi agreed with this, "Let's continue to read, the next questions are more difficult, let's see how they answered?"

  Ge Lihua was very interested, "Yes."

  …

  Ancestral hall.

  The eighteen children all sat listlessly on their seats, sighing and looking deeply shocked.

  Xu Zeliang sighed, and said, "Who or which sister wrote this question, it's too difficult!"

  Xu Songnian said, "It must be my fifth cousin."

  Xu Wenlin agreed, "I also think that Fifth Cousin, Li Hua and the other three would not treat us like this."

  Tian Xiaoqiu said, "The fifth cousin looks easy to get along with, but she is actually the strictest, but also the best."

   "That's true." Xu Songnian said, "I think the topic should be given to the two cousins, they are smart."

  Tian Xiaoqiu looked helpless, "I also feel that my hair hurts from scratching."

  Zeng Yiping wrinkled into a bitter face, and said, "Why does my fifth cousin give us such difficult questions?"

  Xu Wenlin hesitated, "We're almost done studying, maybe it's to test us."

"Yeah, it's over in five days." Xu Zeliang said reluctantly, "These three months of studying are the best days of my life. Not only can I read and write, but I can also eat meat, just like in a dream. day."

   This remark made everyone feel the same way.

  Zeng Yiping smacked his lips, and said reluctantly, "If you want to have enough food at home, you have to wait until the New Year. Now you can eat enough every day. Life is like a fairy."

  Sun Tianyang said, "I really hope that these days can last longer."

   Speaking of this, everyone couldn't help feeling sad.

  Chu Lan'er also joined everyone's conversation, "Actually, it's okay. After studying, we can earn money by ourselves. When we earn money, the whole family will be full."

  Tian Xiaoqiu said with high fighting spirit, "So I must try to stay."

  Xu Zeliang encouraged, "Everyone work hard together."

"work together."

  Footsteps came, and then Ge Lihua walked into the dormitory, "I corrected your test papers with your fifth cousin, and I'll get the ones whose names I read."

  After half a quarter of an hour, everyone got their own test papers, and then everyone's expressions became serious and sad.

  Xu Songnian's score: 70, 65.

  Xu Wenlin: Sixty-five, sixty-three.

  Tian Xiaoqiu: Seventy-one, seventy.

  Chu Laner: Sixty-nine, sixty-eight.

  Zeng Yiping: Sixty-five, sixty-seven.

  Sun Tianyang: Sixty-eight, sixty-eight.

  …

  Such a low score, the sisters must be very disappointed in them.

  Ge Lihua observed everyone's reactions silently, and kept laughing inwardly. The children's world is simple, and he never thought that this was deliberately embarrassing them.

   "Don't be sad, everyone. The low score just shows that there is a lot of room for improvement. In addition, this is not the final exam paper, so you don't need to pay too much attention to the score."

   "Okay, everyone raise your head now, let me give you a comment."

  Ge Lihua took out the standard answers that Chu Qingzhi gave her, and told her according to the standard answers. She couldn't do some things without looking at the standard answers.

  The kids listened more seriously this time than ever...

  Before, they could score more than 90 or even 100 points in each exam, which made them feel that learning is very easy, but now seeing their scores, they only feel that their future is bleak.

  After the test questions were finished, Ge Lihua distributed the second-difficulty test papers to everyone, "There is no practical class today, everyone can go home after finishing the test questions."

   "Yes, sister Li Hua."

  Ge Lihua turned the hourglass upside down and put it on the podium, "Time starts."

  The children had no time to be sad, and immersed themselves in the ocean of test questions.

  The second set of test papers is of medium difficulty, including 50 questions in the academic test paper and 50 questions in the arithmetic test paper, a total of 100 questions, and the time is two hours.

  Ge Lihua saw that everyone was working **** the questions, he walked out of the dormitory, went to the next room, brought out the sewing basket, and prepared to embroider the red hijab.

  She will get married in about ten days, her wedding dress has been embroidered, her wedding shoes are also embroidered, and the only thing left is the red hijab.

  Looking at the bright red color, Ge Lihua's cold face gradually softened.

  …

  Father Li came to the medicine hut, "Girl, come and see the bamboo hut."

  Chu Qingzhi was instructing Chu Qingning to prepare the medicine, and said, "Here we come."

  The frame of the bamboo house was all set up, and with the prototype of seven houses, Chu Qingzhi grabbed one of the weighing logs and shook it. It was very stable, and she couldn't shake it even with a lot of strength.

  Chu Qingzhi praised without hesitation, "Uncle Li, you have a good skill."

  Father Li said modestly, "Thanks to Miss Meng."

  Chu Qingzhi trusted Father Li, but she was not careless. She checked all the places, "Uncle Li, we can start further construction."

  Father Li replied, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

  The next step is to tie the bamboo to the frame to form the wall of the bamboo house. Chu Qingzhi’s request is that no obvious gaps can be seen, otherwise it will be very cold to work in it in winter.

   But after tying the bamboo, Chu Qingzhi plans to cover the room with a few layers of thick cloth, and then make some decorations, and then burn two stoves. It shouldn't be too cold, at least bearable.

   There is no need for Chu Qingzhi to do these things, many people who come to help her are voluntary.

  Tieing bamboo is not difficult. With Father Li's guidance, everyone will be able to do it.

   After finishing work here, Chu Haodong came again, "Qing Zhi, I have bought back all the spices you asked for, take a look."

"good."

  The two came to the warehouse behind the old house, where Chu Haodong unloaded all his things.

  Chu Haodong stepped forward to open the box, and then opened the bundle, "Qing Zhi, everything is here."

   These things are still Chinese medicinal materials in this era, and they are not widely used in cooking food.

  Chu Qingzhi grabbed a handful of peppercorns and put them in her hand. This is dried red peppercorns, all wild. As soon as she opened the bag, the fragrance came out, very fragrant.

   Then she looked at the cinnamon bark, which was very dry and very fragrant.

  She went through all the spices, and they were of very high quality.

  Chu Qingzhi asked, "Who did you buy it from, we can cooperate with you in the future."

  Chu Haodong said, "He is a merchant who specializes in selling medicinal materials. After he came to Shuiyun County, he was suppressed by the locals and he never sold. I thought he had good things, so I bought them from him."

  Chu Qingzhi agreed, "Very good."

   "Then next time I will buy from him again."

"Can."

   Things were put into storage temporarily, Chu Qingzhi turned to look for Chu Xuhua.

  Chu Xuhua came back from the outside and just took a sip of water.

  Chu Qingzhi said, "Brother, I bought all of Landlord Sun's pigs, and I plan to make bacon. Tomorrow, you call a few people to buy ten pigs and come back, and kill them first to make the first batch of bacon."

  Part of it is marinated, part of it is made of sausage, and part of it is made of sauced meat.
