Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 7 - 7 6 Humility

?Chapter 7: Chapter 6 Humility Chapter 7: Chapter 6 Humility After dinner, Mrs. Wang washed the dishes. She then sat on the bed, lighting the small oil lamp, and resumed her embroidery work. Alu, accompanied by Dabao, fetched some water for the pot, and they further reduced the fire in the stove.

Subsequently, Alu and Dabao also sat on the bed. They took out an old book and started recognizing characters under the oil lamp, with Chen Ming teaching them. Only Chen Afu, who had nothing to do, sat farthest from the oil lamp on a chair, watching the few of them work and study.

Originally, Chen Afu wanted to go out into the yard to stretch her limbs, but neither Mrs. Wang nor Chen Dabao wanted her to, fearing that she would fall.

They were reciting the “Thousand Character Classic,” and it was clear that Chen Alu wasn’t as smooth in reciting as Chen Dabao. Some parts Dabao seemed to have already memorized, but he patiently followed along with Alu, repeating several times over. It wasn’t that Chen Alu was slow, but rather, Dabao was too smart. He was only four years old, a true prodigy.

No wonder Chen Ming didn’t seem like a regular farmer; he was literate after all.

Looking at Mrs. Wang’s slightly squinting eyes, Chen Afu thought that she must soon strengthen her body to liberate her from the nightly embroidery work. Otherwise, in a few years, Mrs. Wang would go blind.

Mrs. Wang’s embroidery work was excellent, but she only took on intricate handkerchiefs, wallets, and other small items, with the largest being a round fan’s cover. Perhaps such items were quicker to embroider, thus making money faster.
