The former owner of this body is also called Li Qinglin. (Don't throw away the bricks when you see this. The ancients said, "All coincidences can make a book", and I can't avoid clichés here, haha!)

This is the 16th year of Xusui, a monkey. He started studying in a private school in the village for five years at the age of Xusui, and at the age of Xusui, he studied in a private school in the town for two years at the age of Xusui, and at the age of Xusui, he studied in the National Primary School in the town for two years. Last year, the school was on the winter vacation on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and Li Qinglin studied in another half a year and was about to go to junior high school in the summer.

As a farming family in that era, it was really a big burden to raise a scholar at home. Li Qinglin started at the age of nine and studied the Four Books and Five Classics intermittently for five years in a private school run by the village. After two years of study, he was late and interrupted for two years was due to financial reasons. The first time he dropped out of school was when there was a famine that year and his family had no money to pay for tuition; the second time he dropped out of school was because of his grandmother's death and he spent money to attend the funeral.

During the Republic of China, formal school education was not very popular in rural Central Plains. Ordinary school children basically opened private schools in villages to receive traditional cultural education. Private schools in the Republic of China were already improved private schools. The teaching focused on reading, writing and calculation training. They could write neat hand-made characters, write correspondence and other application articles (simple classical Chinese), and plan to calculate and calculate accounts. These skills were adapted to social needs, especially at that time when they could adapt to the needs of some students going to foreign terminals such as Shanghai. The courses they had at that time included calligraphy practice, Chinese, letters and abacus.

Practicing calligraphy is an indispensable lesson every afternoon. It is stipulated that the regular script copybooks of Ou, Liu and Yan are used as templates for copying, and the teacher guides them separately and students are hard-working to copy.

In the two courses of letters and abacus, the teachers compiled lecture notes and proceeded step by step. Letters, starting from the title and format, guided students to learn the content and writing of various letters. Abacus, starting from the formula and the teaching of beads, guided students to practice the method and procedures of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, as well as the operation of various application questions, and often examined and trained individually one by one.

Private schools not only charge low fees, but also have fewer miscellaneous fees than schools. The school is set up in the public houses of the village. The school is close to home, and children can go to school nearby on foot. Children of the village and their age can learn to read and study if they have the conditions. Private schools are generally established by the village’s security chief, and part of the teachers’ salary is paid by the family’s public land grain; private school teachers are generally local scholars from the hometown, and some are scholars from the Qing Dynasty and have a strong foundation in Chinese studies. Li Qinglin’s tuition fee for private schools is also very cheap, only two oceans a year.

Because private school teachers have not received modern education, private school education can only teach traditional Chinese studies, arithmetics, etc. In the 1930s, the government of the Republic of China vigorously advocated formal modern education. Primary schools in various places have been opened one after another, using basically unified textbooks to teach modern courses other than Chinese. But what followed was that tuition was also expensive. Li Qinglin's tuition for elementary school in the past two years was ten oceans a year. If Li Qinglin went to junior high school next year, the annual tuition, miscellaneous fees and other expenses for meals would be at least twenty-four or five oceans.

Li Qinglin's family is now three, with two laborers in his father and mother. There are five acres of dry land and half acre of vegetable land. The vegetables grown in the vegetable land are for the whole family to eat; corn is grown in dry land, which has been good last year and has good weather throughout the year. It is a bumper harvest year, with a yield of 150 to 60 kilograms per mu. Excluding seeds and various taxes, this year can only make a living. The main source of income for the family is the money that Li Qinglin's father Li Wanquan earns from the eggs laid by the rich family and the few chickens raised by his mother every year.

During the Republic of China, the salary for short-term workers was paid with grain. In recent years, China was in the so-called "golden decade" economic period. Rich families were busy developing land, building houses and courtyards, and needed short-term workers everywhere. Li Wanquan earned a lot of money for short-term workers last year. He sold the grain he received to grain dealers and exchanged them for 20 oceans. This was the largest huge sum of money that the family had ever seen.

Farmers naturally take the land as the foundation of their survival. Li Wanquan went to Li Qinglin to school just to let his son know a few words. Children and grandchildren will not be blind when they read the words and will not be bullied by others. In addition, Li Qinglin is 16 years old after the Chinese New Year. After returning home, he can take half a labor force. He can get the job in the farmland for two years. It is better than spending money only to go to school. Li Wanquan's family has few people, only Li Qinglin. Although early marriage is not recommended in the Republic of China, society was very chaotic in the past few years, and maybe one day he was arrested for strong men, so it is not uncommon for wealthy families to marry their children in their teens. Li Wanquan has decided not to let his son go to school next year, taking advantage of the cash in hand, this year the father and son work harder to earn some money, and marry their son quickly to continue their offspring is the top priority at the moment.

The original Li Qinglin received traditional education since childhood, and was proud of scholars. When he was young, he accepted the theory that "everything is inferior, only high school students" from private school teachers. The original Li Qinglin believed that judging words can make him respect in the countryside, but changing his destiny must go out of the rural society. He can change his status in this society, and only a junior high school degree or higher education can be achieved. However, his family conditions are so he cannot argue with his parents. Last night on New Year's Eve, he was depressed and drank a pound of sorghum wine his father bought during the New Year and fainted. By this morning, according to his mother's words, "not even breathed."

At this point, Li Qinglin has confirmed that he was reborn and the body of the person he occupied. This person was also called Li Qinglin. He became a teenager again and was reborn in a Henan peasant family.

After learning about the incident from the quarrel between the two parents in this life, I couldn't help but sigh. My predecessor was really not good. As the saying goes, "filial piety is the first priority for all virtues", and the arrangements of parents always make sense. In this poor era, Li Qinglin used to have such low tuition fees for private schools, because he had no money, so he studied intermittently. In the past two years, the tuition fees for primary school can only be supported by the entire family's income. If he continues to study in junior high school, he will definitely go bankrupt. Although he has a future, his family can afford it!

Li Qinglin already knew that he was reborn, but he knew nothing about what time it is now and what the environment he was in, and these are exactly what he urgently needed to understand.

What should I do now? He lay down and thought for a long time, but decided to use the excuse of drinking too much and not remembering clearly, and then slowly adapt to this environment. If this is not the case, if people know that Li Qinglin is reborn, then these farmers would not regard him as a monster? If this is true, it would be better to die.

Li Qinglin decided to formally integrate into this family, that is, formally integrate into this society, otherwise it would be meaningless to be reborn once. After making up his mind, Li Qinglin said, "Dad, mom, stop arguing, I won't go to school next year!"

When Li Qinglin heard him speak, Li Wanquan and his wife stopped arguing immediately and rushed to Li Qinglin.

"Son, are you hungry? I didn't eat the New Year dumplings last night. I'll go to heat them for you. They are made of pork!" Mother Liu Yuzhen immediately rushed out to heat the dumplings.

His father Li Wanquan looked quite old-fashioned. From the outside, he looked like a genuine and honest farmer. He only knew how to laugh "hehe" and didn't say anything, but he could tell from his eyes that he was very happy.

In a blink of an eye, my mother brought a large bowl of steaming dumplings, and Li Qinglin really felt hungry now.
