After tidying up the dishes and feeding the pigs, Qian Liqin took some dried bamboo shoots and dried long tofu that Yang Yong had brought back from Luodian and tied them with nylon ropes, and prepared to send them to Qian's grandparents. I heard that Grandpa Qianjia went to the county to buy goods yesterday, and he came back very late at night when the wheat was all asleep. So doing housework in the morning, Qian Liqin took Mai to see Qian's grandfather.
Saying to go to grandparents' house, in fact, it was just walking out of the small kitchen door, walking a few steps along the corridor and turning around.
Grandpa Qianjia was sorting out the new goods yesterday. He was also happy to see the wheat. He turned around and grabbed the peanuts from the glass jar on the counter and handed it to the wheat to eat.
Qian Liqin asked Mai to thank grandpa quickly, and Chen Shulu took the rag from Qianjia's grandma, and helped to wipe the counter and glass jar on the side.
Wheat obedient, and said softly: "Thank you Grandpa!" After peeling two or three peanuts and eating, he helped Qian Liqin hand over small things.
The grocery store is not large. It was originally a house. A large window was opened on the wall facing the main road, and the concrete floor was poured. The walls were cleaned with lime, a few wooden cabinets and counters were placed on it, and the business license was hung up and it opened. . Mainly sell daily necessities such as tobacco, alcohol, snacks, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. Although the sparrow is small and well-equipped, bottles and jars fill the room.
Qianjia's grandma has not been in good health in recent years. Since Qianjia's grandfather retired from school, he has basically managed the grocery store. The Qianjia grandpa has always liked to read medical books. After retiring at home, he devoted himself to studying for a while. Later, he set up a wooden cabinet in the corner of the grocery store, and sold some commonly used plasters and nourishing medicinal materials.
Here, Qian's grandparents and Qian Liqin started their daily routines, talked about the situation in Luodian, and discussed the pricing of new goods this time. Because school is approaching, there are more goods purchased this time, and the three of them have been busy for a while before putting their things in order. Later, the topic turned to Mai again unknowingly. All three felt that since they picked it up and caught up with the beginning of the school season, they would go to school early. Grandpa Qianjia agreed, and in a few days he will take some time to discuss with the principal.
There must be doubts about the school age of Latent Wheat. In fact, in a small place like Nanjiang, the school age is not as strict as that in the city. Nanjiang Township has a lot of mountains and little land, and most people rely on going out to work to support their families, and their children stay at home to take care of the elderly. Old people in rural areas who don’t have garden vegetable plots are busy with their work, and it is impossible to watch them all the time. They have to pay attention to the deep water areas on the highway. There is no kindergarten in the township. So as long as the family members don’t feel bad about the substitute training fee, they can basically make advancement. Enroll in one year. The condition is that the child's academic performance must keep up, at least to pass the exam. Otherwise, you will have to repeat the next school year and continue to the first grade.
Qian's grandfather asked some more questions, and finally said to Qian Liqin: "Now that the child is back, you have to teach her to speak pure Jintian dialect. She is a formal Jintian person. Don't be like her dad and can't change it. With Luodian accent, Yiliwala can't even say a word."
Qian Liqin nodded in response.
