 Chapter 390: Zhang's Thoughts

As for the afternoon break, they would naturally take it when the time came.


"Madam, I'll go to the village to see if there are any ripe pomelos." Hu Shi had changed into coarse clothes, tied a handkerchief around her head, and wore long boots. Although it was a bit hot, she wasn't worried about her clothes getting snagged by branches.


"It's too hot now. There's no rush. We can go afternoon." Ye Muyu planned to wait until tomorrow to sell the honey pomelo tea after determining the price. She would then decide whether to continue making it or not. As for the pomelos bought in the village, she would not waste them.


Understanding Ye Muyu's consideration, Hu Shi thought for a moment and decided not to go out immediately. Instead, she washed clothes in the yard.


Ye Muyu returned to the east wing, took off her outer clothes and began her afternoon nap.


During this time, the weather was quite hot in the afternoon, but Ye Muyu had a cold constitution. Sleeping inside the house with a thin quilt covering her abdomen didn't make her feel too hot.


She woke up from her nap just after the hottest part of the day had passed.


Getting up, she put on her clothes.


In the afternoon, she spent her time experimenting with making ink, while Hu Shi stayed at home making honey pomelo tea using the slightly inferior pomelos bought from the village.


As for Zhang Shu, he went out to cut grass and inquired if there were ripe pomelos available for sale.


The village remained lively, especially due to the matter involving Teacher Lin.


The old house was also bustling.


Chu Sheng and Chu Ming were at home, not going to the school in the afternoon. Instead, they were called by Chu Liushi to make pickled vegetables.


"Mom, where should Ah Ming and Ah Sheng go to continue their studies?" Zhang was an impatient person. After learning that Teacher Lin might leave, she became anxious. At noon, she went to find Teacher Lin and asked.


However, with so many people around at noon, she could only squeeze in and ask a question before being pushed out because of the heat.


Later, she had to wait until Teacher Lin said that he was willing to find another teacher to replace him. Only then did she come back from the school.


She valued her daughter's marriage and even more so wanted her two sons to study.


In fact, she had wanted to send her two sons to study in the county a long time ago.


In the county, they had a house to live in and even if they sent their two sons to study in the county school, it would still be convenient. Previously, there wasn't much silver at home and combined with Chu Heng saying that Teacher Lin taught well, it was considered young to become a xiucai at the age of fifteen. The two sons hadn't accumulated enough knowledge, so even if they took the xiucai exam, they wouldn't pass.


It was better to accumulate knowledge for a couple more years.


Although she envied Chu Heng for his high status in the family after becoming a xiucai, now that the family had a good amount of silver since Ye Muyu directly gave her the pickled vegetable recipe, she felt that what Chu Heng said made more sense and was more willing to listen.


As for the little jealousy she felt towards Ye Muyu before had disappeared without a trace.


But now, things were different. There was silver at home, and Teacher Lin was about to leave. She wanted to send her two sons to study in the county school. That's why she went to discuss it with Chu Lin first and then talked to Chu Zhiwen and Chu Liushi about it.


When Chu Liushi heard about it, she looked at Zhang and the two grandchildren beside her. She instantly understood.


"What does your husband think?" Chu Liushi threw the question to her.


Zhang, taking advantage of the situation, said, "Mother, my husband and I are thinking of sending Ah Ming and Ah Sheng directly to study at the county school."


"By then, whether they live directly in the county or are sent there daily by my husband, it will be convenient. We already have an ox cart at home which is much more convenient than before."


Zhang was also clever. She tentatively voiced her thoughts.
