Boss Zhu frowned when he heard this and said, "Why are you telling your child this?"
"Why don't you tell your child?" Mrs. Li glanced at him, "You've been bored all your life, and if you can't beat me with three sticks, I might as well count on your child."
"Please keep your voice down. I've told you several times that my father has no money at all." e3" Boss Zhu lowered his voice and said, "You didn't see it when I went to my hometown to move the grave. The house in my hometown has already been destroyed. It is about to collapse. I heard from people in the village that only the east room can be inhabited, and the west room cannot even be stored. It leaks when it rains. If dad doesn't think about it anymore, the old man may not even be able to eat. If our family had money, we would Dad won’t leave his hometown and run away. After he runs out, the old man will be left alone to farm the land in his hometown. Is it possible to dig out gold from the ground?"
Chapter 114: Shuanzi has more playmates. "You can't dig out gold from the ground, but how can you dig out jade pendants?" Li rolled her eyes and said, "Who wouldn't? When the fourth child got married, your father took out a pair of jade pendants. Come? Why is your family so poor? As the saying goes, a broken family is worth a thousand dollars. Didn’t you say that your family has a popular surname in your hometown? There are only a few generations left, so why can’t you pass down something good? You are just a fool. Looking at your family What's wrong? Old people are like that. They wish they could save everything but not spend it, keeping it to make coffins. Let me tell you, now that the family is separated, you can't be as stupid as before. The old man may not be sure. When did it disappear? If it was my parents who took it or used it, then we have nothing to say, but if it was you who took it, we can't suffer such a loss in vain. You are the boss at home, what will happen to the family in the future? You have to make the decision, son. Don't act like a doormat every day and listen to your sister in everything. Even if she no longer has her husband's family, after all, she is not a serious member of the old Zhu family. She has a child and her surname is Zhu. , It’s really embarrassing, people have a long-term vision and are holding back to divide the family property in the future, but you are so stupid that you can’t see it.”
Mrs. Li kept repeating these words almost every once in a while. I wish the boss could almost hear the cocoon in his ears. If he had to argue with her, he would cause more trouble. If the companion comes too much, just keep silent and let her say she is tired.
Seeing that her man couldn't make sense, Mrs. Li threw the turban on the kang, turned around and snatched the jam jar from Boyuan's hand and cursed that she still eats it. Next time, I'll marinate you in honey." Then she put it outside. In the cupboard, he also warned Boyuan, "If you let me see you missing, I will beat you up."
"Mom, you've been so stingy lately. You're not allowed to eat anything at home, and you won't even buy a dime for candy." Boyuan muttered reluctantly as he was robbed of food.
Mrs. Li was so angry that she slapped him twice and said, "You forget to eat every day and don't forget to fight. If you put all your energy into studying, I think you will be successful long ago." How rich do you think our family is? In the past, when I bought you delicious food, it was not all money given by your grandparents. I only relied on the little harvest from your father's farming. What was enough for you? "
I hope the boss can't stand listening in the room anymore and come out and say, "Why are you beating your child? It's the right time to be greedy at this age, and it will be fine in two years." "
"If it weren't for you not being able to make money, would I have to worry about food? Do you think I don't want him to be well fed and clothed?" Mrs. Li sat down on the stool angrily, "Before, My parents always subsidize me. Now that my parents are older, my sister-in-law is in charge of the household accounts. Wherever there is money for me, my parents have to figure out how to spend the money. I won’t let them control it anymore. A little bit, just eating can make the family poor."
"Why are we so poor? I have five children in my family. I think they are eating well, and all the children are growing up well. Our land is not worse than others, and we have fewer people. How can we do this? Are you hungry?" Boss Zhu squatted at the door and smoked.
"The land is no worse than other people's, but what you are doing is better than others? Your father and your father have taught me all those skills. If I didn't teach them to you, I think the second son's family will secretly start a business in the city." Yes, I heard Mrs. Shaoyao say a while ago that some rich people from the city were inquiring about her family in the village. The only problem was that they were doing business as a partnership. How could you make a living just by digging around in the dirt? "Mr. Li has been short of money recently, so she doesn't dare to use rouge and gouache as before, nor does she dare to buy all the good ones. She already felt that she was aggrieved. Today, I wish the boss has another good word. Competing with him made her feel very upset.
"The second son's family didn't hide anything. Whether it was to get rid of insects or frost, they also told the people in the village. When have I ever eaten solitary food? I can't do it myself. I can't blame others for cleaning up the land. I'll work harder tomorrow to see if the harvest can be better this year." Seeing that Mrs. Liu was really angry, Mr. Zhu didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he softened up, " I’ll learn more about farming from you and my father in the future.”
"The Japanese melons and Baogu they made were also brought from my hometown. Why didn't your father teach you a few, just teach them to his family?" Mrs. Li started to dig up the old accounts again, "When your father just arrived At that time, the second child went out to pick him up and carried him home. Unlike you, he didn't push forward. If I were your father, I would also be surprised that someone would cause trouble like that, and I would be too lazy to pay attention to you. "
"Why are you becoming more and more unreasonable? Lao 2 bought that thing from his hometown. He also asked me. I was wondering if that new thing could be farmed, so I didn't buy it. Besides, his family also didn't buy it. I have never planted it before, and now I am trying to plant it on wasteland. Who dares to occupy a decent place to plant those things? If it cannot be harvested, it will be in vain, and it will also delay the harvest of food. "
"I finally figured it out. You just made it clear today that you are going against me, right? I said something to you and you said something back. Well, my mother-in-law's family won't subsidize the money, and your back is getting tougher again?" Mrs. Li stood up and stood up. Boss Zhu pushed him away, went into the house, threw off his shoes, and lay down on the kang, no longer facing him with his back.
Boss Zhu opened his mouth to explain, but in the end he sighed, swallowed his words, finished his cigarette and stood up before asking Boss why you haven't? "
"Why am I standing with my legs on top of him?" Mrs. Li said angrily, "You just leave the door open for him, why don't you go home and sleep at night?"
Seeing that Ruo Ruo was saying that it was going to be so noisy that he couldn't sleep, Boss Zhu stopped talking and went out to bolt the courtyard door but left the door unlocked. Anyway, if Boss could break in, it would be fine as long as he could get into the house.
Early the next morning, because the weather was getting hotter, people in the village took advantage of the time when the sun was not strong to go to work in the fields. People from the city the day before were saying that the neighboring village seemed to have caught someone stealing. , did not go to Li Zheng to deal with it, and directly sent it to the government. There was a lot of commotion in the city yesterday. I heard that the thieves were still a few young men. I really didn’t know how to go to the official for this. Even if Even if you can win the lawsuit, there is no guarantee that you will have to deal with it from top to bottom. Maybe it would be better to pay more in private.
Boss Zhu went to work in the fields at dawn, planning to wait for a few rows before returning home for dinner. At first, he just listened to it as gossip, but later he heard someone said that they were all young men, and there seemed to be people from Qijia Village. My heart skipped a beat, and I didn't even bother to tidy up the field any more. I hurried home and asked Li whether he was the boss last night. "
Mrs. Li was making breakfast in the kitchen. She looked toward the west room and said, "Look, where am I?"
Boss Zhu pushed the door open and entered the house to see two boys sleeping on the kang, stretching their legs and crotch. Then he wiped the cold sweat from his head, came out and squatted in front of the stove to help Mr. Li turn on the bellows. I just heard someone in the village say, A few young men went to a neighboring village to steal, but they were turned away and sent to the government. They said that there were people from our village among them. You usually keep a tight watch on the boss. Although you can't take the imperial examination, you can either work in the fields or go to school. It’s a good craft, so it’s not a problem to keep putting it off like this.”
Mr. Li, he is telling the truth, but you have never thought of me as a mother, have you? I thought about sending him to be an apprentice in my third brother's shop. Firstly, relatives would take care of him, and secondly, he would learn how to do business and go to the city to see the world. "
"Just do whatever you think is good, I have nothing to say." Boss Zhu added two pieces of firewood to the bottom of the stove and nodded in agreement.
"If you think it's okay, then I'll go back to my mother's house today and talk to my mother about this first. When the third child comes home, I'll invite him over for a meal and try to settle this matter. , his own nephew, there is no reason not to help him."
Now that Mr. Zhu has been found, the Zhu family has returned to its former peace. Only then did Fang remember to tell Hehua about Widow Wang’s request. Hehua had the same concerns as Fang, mainly because she was afraid of delaying her children. , but since Widow Wang said that she was just here to memorize a few sentences and learn a few words, and she didn’t care what she could really learn, she nodded and agreed, then I’ll just go to Aunt Wang’s house and call Hu Zi over. Anyway, I’ll teach at home. With the bolt, one sheep is being driven, and two sheep are being herded, the difference is not much different. "
When Mrs. Fang heard this, she said angrily, "Look at those two sentences you said, are you still herding sheep?" "
"Hey, let's talk casually." Hehua laughed and walked out of the house, going to Widow Wang's house to pick up Huzi.
When Widow Wang saw Lotus coming to the door, she quickly let her in and was busy making sugar water and getting fruits for her.
"Auntie, please don't be busy. My mother just told me what you mentioned today. Of course, there is no problem with me. As long as you are not afraid that I will not teach you well and will delay Huzi, just leave it alone. That's my home." He Hua felt that it was necessary to say something in advance, "But at most I can only teach him to read a few words and memorize a few enlightenment articles. If he wants to teach some books, I can't."
"Don't worry, your mother has already told me that my aunt is not that confused. She just asked him to learn a few words first. Besides, your family is so lively, so he can have more company, so I will I'm afraid he won't be as lively and cheerful as a boy even at home." Widow Wang said and went to the backyard to call Hu Zi.
Vanilla came into the room with a plate and asked Lotus girl to eat these pickled plums. I made them myself and they are still edible. You can try them. "
Hehua was too embarrassed to refuse after hearing what she said, so she picked one and stuffed it into her mouth. Although it was better than the ones sold outside, the water in the mountains was good and the fruits were good, but the taste was not that good. Hehua held the plums in her mouth and said, Sister Vanilla is it. He is very skillful and everything he makes tastes delicious. "
While Widow Wang was still here, Xiangxiang said softly: My mother and I are the only ones in my house. People say that so many families have strong Yin Qi. I think Huzi is a bit too elegant. If I stay at your house, I can play with Shuanzi and the others. , maybe he can look like a boy. "
We have met Huzi Hehua from Widow Wang’s house a few times, but because of the age difference and the impression that Huzi has always been a shy child, always hiding behind Widow Wang, we have never spoken to each other. His name is Huzi, but he looks delicate and thin, not even half of a tiger-headed person. The nickname he picked was probably just to place Widow Wang’s expectations on her.
"Don't worry, Sister Vanilla, our two families are so good, your brother is just like my brother. As long as you are not afraid that I will lead your tigers into the wild, I will not follow your heresy."
Just as she said this, Widow Wang pulled Huzi in and asked Huzi, do you still remember you, Sister Hehua? "
"Sister Hehua..." Huzi called out obediently, holding a small bag sewn with blue cloth in his hand. Widow Wang might have made it for him to wear.
"Are you happy with your mother asking you to learn literacy with me?" Hehua knelt down and asked Huzi.
"I'm happy to, my mother said that the more you read, the more capable you will be." Huzi said seriously.
"Hey, you're so smart." Hehua pinched Huzi's face, stood up and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I've designated Huzi to be watched over by you."
"How can I not worry if I leave it to your family?" Widow Wang saw Hehua pulling Huzi away, and also sent it to the courtyard and said, "Go home and take it to your mother, so that she can come to my house when she has time." She looked straight at her. Hehua led Huzi around the intersection and saw no one, so he closed the door tightly and bolted it inside.
There was a new friend at home, and the happiest one was Shuanzi, who kept pulling at the piece of wood that Huzi was showing off. Back then, Hehua Shuanzi liked to play with pieces of wood, so he asked Zhu Yongxin to polish the wood so that it wouldn't hurt his hands. Shuanzi has been playing for more than a year and is even more slippery when rubbed. He really looks like some building blocks. Huzi probably doesn’t have any toys at home, so he doesn’t recognize Shuanzi at all when they are together. It’s great to have fun together. We are tinkering on the kang while laughing and joking, not joking.
Shaoyao was sitting on the kang, embroidering, with a smile on her lips. She looked up from time to time to see if the two children were running around. Hehua looked at her little feet covered with socks, and ran outside to ask Mrs. Fang, if Shaoyao's feet were released now, would they be able to grow again? "
