Not long after the door was slammed, Wang Yisi, that is, Wang Daniu's aunt and grandmother, opened the door.

The expression on his face was still flat.

"Come, come in!"

With that, he turned around and walked back into the house.

When Wang Daniu came that time, he had already seen the coldness of his aunt and grandmother, so he hurriedly dragged Wang Xin in without saying a word.

In order to make a good impression, Wang Xin closed the door after entering the door.

Then, Wang Xin was attracted by the surrounding antique buildings and some flowers and plants.

Of course, there is no way to compare with some scenic spots and Suzhou gardens, but compared with his family's earthen house, it is already so good.

Every grass and tree is neatly cared for, not a single dead leaf or flower is seen, and although the green brick and rivet building is old, it is also very clean, enough to see the intentions and love of the people who live here.

You must know that an old house like this, if you don't take care of it, it won't take a few years to be abandoned.

So if nothing else, his aunt and grandmother must be quite hardworking.

After all, these days, I don't have the surname Xing Servant or anything, if you really hire it, you have to worry about others saying that you are capitalist, so she doesn't have to do all the work at home alone.

"The servants in the house have all been dismissed, and I can't keep so many houses, so I sealed up the rest of the room except for the room where I lived, the living room, and the kitchen.

I heard that you are coming, and I have cleared a room two months ago, so you can move to the second room in the east wing.

It should be fine for you father and son to sleep in the same bed. ”

Aunt Wang did not lead their father and son to the living room, but led them directly to the east wing.

There are a total of ten rooms in her two-entry courtyard, which are divided into three main rooms, two east wings and two west wings.

These rooms are called three and four ears, which is the standard configuration of the second courtyard.

The remaining three rooms are the kitchen, the utility room and the maid's room, but now there is nothing to put in the utility bag, and the maid's room is not lived by a servant, so the kitchen is still in use.

"Thank you, Grandma!"

"Thank you, Grandma!"

Wang Daniu and Wang Xin thanked in unison.

"You're welcome, although I haven't been in contact for many years, I'm all relatives.

The kitchen is a few steps further from the east wing through the corridor on that side.

At that time, when I lived here, there were people who came to collect Gong buckets, so there was no Gong house in the yard, if you didn't want to use Gong buckets, you could walk a little farther, and there was a public toilet on the street next door.

I don't need to say more about the rest of the situation, it's not like you haven't lived in such a house.

It's getting late, so you can pack up for the time being, wash up and rest later!"

Aunt Wang and Grandma Wang explained a few more words and was about to turn around and leave, now that the sun is big, this is the time for her daily nap, and she can't delay it.

"Grandma, this is the food we brought over, look, where do you put it?"

Wang Daniu saw that she was leaving, and hurriedly asked.

Didn't their village harvest grain once at the end of July?

Although the harvest is still not a bumper harvest, but the harvest is not lost, each mu also produced so many hundred catties, after paying taxes and the part that must be sold to the grain bureau, according to the division of work, Wang Daniu and his family have a total of 800 catties of grain.

We're talking about the unshelled kind.

This time, Wang Daniu specially went to the only family in the village who was responsible for grinding grain, and grinded 50 catties of rice with 20 catties of sweet potatoes and came over to serve Wang Xin as food.

Among the 50 catties of rice, 20 catties of rice will be handed over to the school to serve as Wang Xin's lunch at noon this semester.

Because a semester is about 100 days of classes, just eat one meal at school at noon, and each meal is counted as two taels of food.

Of course, normal children can't eat two or two taels of rice, so the food paid actually offsets part of the vegetable money.

Of course, it is okay to pay less, but those who pay less will have to pay part of the food money.

In fact, at this time, parents generally pay it month by month, Wang Daniu is mainly afraid of trouble, and there is no shortage of twenty catties of food at home for the time being, so this will be mentioned at one time.

The reason why the school is willing to let students pay it month by month is mainly due to the difficulties of most families in the town.

All the households in the town have no land, and if they don't have land, they naturally have no way to grow and harvest grain by themselves, so they can only rely on their grain capital to go to the grain purchasing station, that is, the grain bureau, to buy grain.

The amount of food they can buy each month is limited, and it is basically enough for them to eat and wear.

If they really let them pay twenty catties of grain a month all at once. Even if the family didn't starve to death, they had to tighten their belts for a whole month.

It may even make some families think about it, or stop reading it.

That's why they pay a little bit of food a month.

Compared with paying 20 catties at one time and a little more than 4 catties per month, most families can still afford it.

"If you are at ease, you can put it in the kitchen, and if you are not at ease, you can also put it in the east wing.

Use whatever you want in the kitchen, save a little oil, and I won't worry about it.

I'll leave if it's okay!"

"Goodbye, grandma!"

"Goodbye aunt and grandma!"

The two of them still said goodbye almost in unison, so looking at it, there is really a bit of a father and son, at least the thoughts are somewhat similar.

"Hmm!"

After Aunt Wang answered, she turned around and left.

A nap every day is indispensable for her, even if the quality of sleep at night is not good because of taking a nap, she is still willing to squint a little at noon.

After Aunt Wang left, Wang Daniu pushed the door into the second room of the East Wing with a few bags of luggage, and then began to take out the things and put them away one by one.

While putting things away, he also picked up Wang Xin, and kept telling him what it was, where it was placed, what was it for, and so on.

Clothes, from summer clothes to winter clothes, although the total number of clothes is only five sets, but compared to other children in the village, Wang Xin has five sets of clothes is already good.

Many of the children's clothes in the village were made out of torn clothes worn by adults.

Some children don't even have any clothes to wear in the summer, so they just run around naked.

Wang Xin's five sets are all his own, and they were all sewn for him by his mother.

"The clothes are all prepared for you, remember not to wash the clothes all the time, and don't wash the ones that are not particularly dirty.

How can these clothes be worn out, not all of them are washed, and they can be worn for dozens of days without washing a few times!"

Wang Daniu said while putting the clothes in the closet.
