Chapter 966: Honor in Troubled Times 34

Xiao Yuanda got up early and went to the county seat with Xiao Jin, and An Ning took the girl at home to make breakfast.

said that she took the girls to make breakfast, but in fact, she was commanded by An Ning, and the five girls worked.

This time, even the youngest Xiao Yin was brought along.

An Ning knew that Xiao Yin would have to live in the countryside for a long time, and she had to learn a lot of work.

It's not that An Ning doesn't hurt Xiao Yin, but today's environment is like this, Xiao Yin can't put up a shelf for Miss Qianjin in the countryside, and An Ning believes in singing on any mountain.

If you sit on the Jinluan Palace, you are the lord of the world, and if you fall into the dust, you will beg for food, and you must be able to put down your body.

She didn't want Xiao Yin's limbs to be industrious.

Breakfast is very simple, just boiled porridge and a few side dishes.

When the meal was ready, Xiao Ying took the boys to the field to see, and on the way back, they picked up some firewood and carried it back.

An Ning took the children to eat and began to take them to study.

The progress of these children in the family is different, and naturally, An Ning is also taught separately.

The eight children who had just arrived had never read or written before, and An Ning had to teach them from scratch.

She first taught Xiao Ying a few, and then asked the youngest Xiao Yin to teach the eight children to read and write.

In addition to literacy, An Ning also teaches them counting, as well as life skills.

In the morning, the girls followed An Ning to learn needlework, and the boys followed Xiao Ying to walk in the yard.

When Xiao Yuan came back, he brought back three subordinates, one male and two female, obviously a family.

The older woman looked like she was in her forties, and the other man and woman were husband and wife, much younger, An Ning asked, the woman's maiden name was Xu, people called her Xu, the couple was her son and daughter-in-law, her son was called Zhang Bao, and her daughter-in-law's surname was Wang, called Wang Xiuzhi.

An Ning had seen these three subordinates and knew that Xu's cooking skills were very good, so she let her take care of the affairs of the kitchen, Zhang Bao and Wang Xiuzhi lived in the two inverted rooms in the front yard, one to see the home nursing home, and the other to clean up or something.

After arranging these three subordinates, Wyeth found them.

She came over to discuss with An Ning about showing Xiao Lingxiang her daughter-in-law.

In the past few days, Wyeth has inquired, there is a place called Monkey Mountain Village five or six miles away from Jingtian Village, there is a girl there with a good reputation, it is said that she is very Peugeot, she is a good person, and she is still a diligent person, anyway, the people in these ten miles and eight villages say that this girl is good, Wyeth wants to inquire about it, if it is really good, look at each other, and settle it for Xiao Ling as soon as possible.

It's not that Wyeth picks up anything.

These people in the Xiao family are northerners, whether they are men or women, they are very tall, their skin is white, and they are beautiful when they look at them.

But the people here in Nanyi are all the kind of people who are short, look very thin, and have very dark skin.

Most of the people here have flatter facial features than people in the north, small eyes, collapsed noses, and thick lips, whether it is An Ning or Wyeth, they are not willing to marry Xiao Ling such a daughter-in-law.

And the girl Wyeth inquired about turned out to be from the north, and she came here because of the difficulties, so Wyeth was so concerned.

An Ning listened to her and said: "Okay, I'll inquire about it, if it's really so good, let's book it for the sixth child as soon as possible, and save him from even having a cook." ”

Here was discussing the matter for Xiao Lingxiang, and Xiao Zhong hurriedly ran over: "Third uncle, mother, my milk is sick." ”

Wyeth was taken aback: "Who did you listen to?"

Xiao Zhong said: "It was Xiao Jin who said, he said that it seems that my grandmother quarreled with my aunt a few days ago, this time my uncle adopted a number of righteous sons and daughters, it seems that my grandmother is a little angry, and my uncle is not very happy for this, last night, my grandmother didn't eat anything, and she caught a cold in the second half of the night, and it burned badly at this time." ”

An Ning hurriedly got up: "Then let's go see your milk." ”

Wyeth also cleaned up and went to the big room with An Ning.

The big house is a new house, and the house is very large, which is very conspicuous in the village.

An Ning and Wyeth can see the big house from afar, and it is really easy to find.

When they passed, the door of the house was open, and An Ning and Wyeth were about to enter the door with their legs raised, when a long, thin and weak boy stopped them: "Who are you, why are you coming to my house?"

Wyeth frowned, and An Ning said, "Our surname is Xiao, and we are people from the third and fourth rooms. ”

The kid looked at An Ning and Wyeth a few times, and then got out of the way.

From beginning to end, he never called his aunt.

An Ning's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he laughed.

Wyeth said in a low voice: "How did the eldest brother teach, he doesn't understand the rules like this." ”

An Ning tugged at Wyeth's sleeve: "What to teach, the eldest brother is looking for these children to let them live." ”

Wyeth shook his head: "He'll do it." ”

An Ning asked Wyeth, "Do you want to take in a few children?"

Wyeth shook his head: "I don't have that plan, you said that the child came to our house, we can't care, we have to teach it well, I don't have the heart to raise the child, but if I don't raise it well, and I feel sorry for the child, I just don't need that effort, and we have a small family, just buy two rough subordinates, one cooks, one caretakes, sweeps and picks water and chops firewood, and we can do the rest of the work ourselves." ”

An Ning feels that Wyeth is really able to think openly, and it is really able to live a down-to-earth life.

"It's not bad for you to be like this, your home is quiet. ”

The two of them entered the main room while talking, and as soon as they entered the door, they heard the old lady crying out and screaming.

An Ning and Wyeth went over, and saw the old lady lying on the bed with a quilt on her body, she was lying on her side, her face was very ugly, and her cheeks were abnormally flushed.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

An Ning took two steps forward: "If you feel uncomfortable, find a doctor to take a look, but don't stand up." ”

The old lady raised her eyelids, and when she saw An Ning and Wyeth, her face became even more ugly.

She wanted to scold, but she was really uncomfortable, her voice was much quieter, and she didn't have the energy to scold, so she said: "You still have me in your eyes." ”

An Ning smiled: "We naturally don't have it in our eyes, but we put you in our hearts, no, we know that you have a cold, so hurry up, mother, what do you want to eat, I'll go back and let Brother Ying bring it to you." ”

The old lady didn't have the heart to talk to An Ning: "I don't eat anything." ”

An Ning turned around and asked Zhao, who rushed over: "Sister-in-law, have you shown your mother a doctor?"

Zhao had a bitter face: "I found it, the doctor prescribed medicine and drank it, but it didn't work very well, you also know that our family is in trouble now, and there is no money left at home, I thought I would go to the county to find a good doctor to see, but I couldn't get the money." ”

An Ning said: "Or, take my mother to us for a few days." ”

Zhao was happy when he heard it, and before he was about to nod, he heard the old lady say: "I'm not going, I'm here, I'm not going to your house." ”
