Chapter 709: Chapter 709 Dahu Became a Teacher Chapter 709: Chapter 709 Dahu Became a Teacher The old lady set down the chicken feed in her hands and stepped into the pen again, feeling under the chicken’s bottom, still no eggs, somewhat disappointed.

Hearing Shu Yu’s words, she washed her hands before smiling and saying, “They both went to the Zhang family.”

“To the Zhang family?”

“Yes, Dahu has gone there to be a teacher.”

Shu Yu was filled with questions, “Are you sure?”

The old lady wiped her hands and said cheerfully, “It was the young one from the Zhang family who came over here, since he knew Dahu could read and write, he thought of letting him teach them whenever he had free time.”

Shu Yu looked up at the sky. A child who had been in school for less than two months becoming a teacher– it seemed utterly fantastical.

The old lady said, “Here in Righteous Dao Village, there are actually people who can read and write. Not to mention others, just take the people from the Shu family, all from a family of substantial means. But they all have to work, they’d like to teach, but they need the time and freedom to do so. Although the Zhang family doesn’t need to work on barren lands anymore, when it comes to going to school, they still don’t have the means.”

“The people from the Zhang family can’t take part in the imperial examinations anyway, but if they could recognize some characters, it would make finding jobs easier later. Dahu might not have attended school for many days, but he’s willing to work hard and endure hardships. Plus, with you and Young Master Meng occasionally teaching him, he has learned many characters now, more than those who have been in school for a year or two.”

“I heard from Dahu that Young Master Meng taught him a special study method last time he was here. Dahu followed it and has made rapid progress in these past few days; he’s absolutely delighted. Now, he is confident enough to start teaching others.”

Shu Yu was overjoyed, “That’s a good thing, Dahu always used to lack confidence.”

The old lady nodded, “Yes, we should really be thanking Young Master Meng, right?”

Shu Yu, “…” He always felt that the old lady’s words were a bit strange, as if they implied something.

She coughed softly, “Since they’re not here, then, then I’ll go to the riverside to wash clothes.”

Shu Yu looked around. She had originally planned to fetch water and gather firewood, but the water tank was still quite full, and there was a pile of firewood in the corner of the wall. The chickens had been fed, and the newly planted vegetables had been watered.

Upon looking around, only the clothes under the eaves had not been washed yet.

It seemed the old lady had left them there because she was worried about leaving Shu Yu alone at home while she slept.

After saying this, Shu Yu picked up the wooden tub with the clothes without waiting for the old lady to refuse and ran off.

“Hey, you child, you just woke up; eat something first, there’s no need for you to wash those.”

The old lady chased after her, but her legs were nowhere as agile as Shu Yu’s, and in no time, she was out of sight.

The old lady sighed, thankfully there weren’t many clothes; she should be back soon.

She went back to the kitchen and decided to start cooking lunch.

However, by the time she was done, Shu Yu still hadn’t returned.

The old lady was starting to get worried; how could washing some clothes take this long? What if something had happened?

Just as she was hesitating whether to go out and look for her, she saw a familiar figure approaching from a distance.

Shu Yu was balancing the wooden basin with the clothes on her waist with her left hand and holding a small basket in her right.

It looked like there was something in the small basket, looking quite heavy.

The old lady let out a long sigh of relief and hurriedly walked up to meet her, “Why did it take you so long to wash those? Where did you get that basket, and what’s inside it?”
