Chapter 11 Rooms
Ye Xiuhe kicked off his shoes and went to the window, saw his man walking towards the front courtyard, hesitated, looked at the sky again, sat on the kang and picked up the needlework basket.
"Good girl, don't look at it, cover the quilt and sleep for a while. ”
"Mother, where's my brother?"
"That leather monkey has already run out to play, let's not learn from him. As he spoke, Ye Xiuhe put the needle in the middle of her hair, pierced it into the sole of her shoe hard, raised her arm, twitched the rope, and gritted her teeth to tighten the eye of the needle.
Seeing Guan Ping'an, he clenched his little broken teeth, and when she was finished, he hurriedly shouted, "Mother, you also lie down with me for a while, I want you to hug me." ”
Ye Xiuhe glanced at her funny, "Silly girl, my mother has to hurry up and make a new pair of shoes for you." Hurry up and put the quilt on sleep, my mother is here to accompany you. ”
Guan Ping'an moved his position and sat opposite her, "I'm not sleepy, I'll accompany my mother, when I learn, I'll give my mother the soles of my shoes, I have a lot of strength." ”
Ye Xiuhe smiled happily, and didn't urge her to lie down for a while. Anyway, when you're tired of sitting, you'll doze off.
Guan Ping'an looked at it for a while, and found that the soles of these shoes have been like this since ancient times, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and soon she would be able to help.
"Mother, can you sell the cloth shoes you made?"
Ye Xiuhe was busy with the work at hand, and replied to her, "Rich people buy liberation shoes, and those who don't have money only take their own soles." ”
Guan Ping'an knows this better than her. People in the city don't just buy liberation shoes, in the department store, she sees a few people wearing leather shoes with unpatched clothes.
She still heard the word leather shoes muttered by passers-by.
It is said to be very expensive, requiring a month's salary.
Guan Ping'an secretly said that it was a pity. If only she could make shoes and sell them for tickets, she would be able to grab a few more pairs at home.
At this moment, she didn't know that she should ask her father for these questions. In addition to being pulled by her father to the county seat to give birth to twins, her mother also went to the county seat twice this time.
Usually, the places where the eldest girls and little daughters-in-law in each village go to the most are large and small markets, and whoever has nothing to do runs to the county seat, at most is to go to the former township and now the commune.
The reason why she proposed to take her daughter to the county hospital for medical treatment was a few years ago, when she heard from the female cadres of the literacy class that a large hospital could save lives......
In fact, she heard that people were referring to the big hospitals in the provincial capital. But with the birth of a dragon and phoenix in childbirth, she believed that the county hospital could really save her life.
"No, I can't. You have to buy cloth tickets, and the material for making the upper is too poor and it will be rotten. But when my mother is free, I will ask whose relatives have woven homespun cloth, and I will go back and make you a flower dress. ”
Guan Ping'an blinked, "Is it expensive?"
"Much cheaper than in the city. This morning, my mother saw a piece of broken flowers on a white background is really good-looking, make me a smock for you, and put on a more foreign style than the little girl in the city, but unfortunately it is a little more expensive, and a foot is not only not afraid of more than four cents. ”
"I don't want it, buy it for my parents. Guan Ping'an hurriedly shook his head, in his memory, his parents usually wore cotton clothes in winter, and after taking out cotton in the spring, they wore it as a jacket until May, and when it was hot in summer, he ripped off the lining, washed and mended, and put on the patches layer after layer.
"I'm still young, so it's nice to wear my cousin's old clothes. As she spoke, she took out the wild vegetable tortillas in her arms and put them in the basket, "Mother eat." ”
"Mother is not hungry. Girls are intimate. If it were your brother, he wouldn't have thought of it. It's still a girl, my mother will definitely make you a smock this year. ”
Guan Ping'an looked at her mother with her head buried in the soles of her shoes with tears and smiles, she really didn't have any pursuit of clothes, as long as she could cover her small body.
There are a lot of patches in the whole village, and many children are barefoot, and when the weather is warm, there are more small dolls with bare bodies.
Not to mention that if a large family lives together, if she puts on new clothes, she will not be able to become famous within a radius of ten miles?
While the two were talking, Aunt Guan shouted from the yard, which was urging the next room to clean up quickly, don't delay earning work in the afternoon.
Ye Xiuhe hid the tortillas and set up the needlework basket, and Aunt Guan had already instructed Guan Xiaomei to take her sisters to dig wild vegetables in the afternoon, and pick up some firewood by the way.
Guan Xiaomei is the only daughter of Guan Youfu in the big room, she looks like her mother, she is 12 years old this year, three months older than Guan Xiaolan, the eldest daughter of the second room.
Unlike the eldest girl to the second girl, the eldest girl to the little girl, and the younger brother of Zhaodi, Aunt Guan named her granddaughter according to "Meilan Zhuju".
The name of the male is more important, not to mention the four sons "Fu Lu Shouquan", and the grandchildren are also "gold, silver and bronze, east, west, north, south, and middle".
Of course, this family is related to the third child, which means that there is an accident.
He couldn't refuse his name, a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses were born, in order to win the right to take the name as soon as possible, his son directly Guan Tianyou, and his daughter came to Guan Ping'an.
Now Guan Lao's three sons and one daughter are gold, silver and bronze plus a plum blossom, Guan Lao's second family has an orchid bamboo and a pair of things, and Guan Laosi's family has a single seedling that is different from the other and chooses "Zhong".
It's no wonder that Ma Zhenzhong hates Guan Laosi the most.
After Aunt Guan finished speaking, she looked at Ye Xiuhe, who walked out, paused and said, "I'm glad that she brought a basket of eggs this morning, and you go and get ten to make up for An An." ”
This is a human relationship, Ye Xiuhe did not politely excuse herself, "Why is she so exquisite." I haven't been home for a long time this time, and people say she's okay?"
Speaking of her only daughter, Aunt Guan couldn't help but smile, "Okay, I said that I couldn't come because of something temporary, and I will come back in a few days." ”
Guan Ping'an was pressed on the kang by her mother before leaving, and at this moment she heard the conversation in the yard, and laughed from the quilt.
According to the date of birth, this aunt is four. This aunt is amazing, sweeping in the literacy class, and she swept a golden beetle son-in-law.
In the memory of the little girl, her brother-in-law seems to be slipping through the mouth: stethoscope steering wheel, personnel cadre salesperson, one of the four types of people holding the steering wheel.
After a while, Ye Xiuhe entered the house with a small basket, stuffed it into the big red wooden box outside, closed the lid, and patted it with satisfaction.
Guan Ping'an looked at her without blinking a pair of big eyes from the quilt: if she remembers correctly, all the sugar cubes were left in it before.
Ye Xiuhe folded the quilt for her daughter and lowered her voice, "Obediently close your eyes and sleep for a while, and wait for your mother to earn a job to make you new clothes." ”
"Okay, my mother will come back early. ”
Ye Xiuhe patted her daughter, thought about it and lifted the lid of the wooden box, took out two candies from the inside and stuffed them into her daughter's little hand in the bed.
"Give it to no one but your brother. ”
Guan Ping'an blinked and smiled, "I'm not stupid." ”
"Yes, my daughter is so clever. ”
There were procrastinating footsteps outside and Uncle Guan's hoarse voice, estimating that it was time to get to work, Ye Xiuhe looked at her daughter and exited the room uneasily.
As soon as she left, Guan Ping'an turned around and climbed to the window, watched the adults in the family walk out, stretched her neck and looked at it, and found that the two cousins took out baskets from the warehouse.
