Chapter 17: The Fate of Mother and Child

"How can that be done?" Chen Ming, Ah Lu, and Wang said in unison. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Chen Ming said again, "Ah Fu is outside, you are also my daughter, you want to set up a female household, and the father and mother should have built you a house." Your grandmother and uncle are not ruthless and unreasonable people, they have to let you live. ”

The family talked until late at night.

Or do it according to Chen Ming's intentions, and give one acre of land to Chen Afu and Dabao. For the time being, Chen Ye borrowed money and bought the homestead next to him to set up a household. When the winter wheat was harvested, he sold the land and began to repair the house.

His family's land is a first-class field, and one acre can be sold for five yuan. Chen Afu only has two mothers and sons, and the homestead is a little smaller, and the money is always enough, and the remaining four dollars are just enough to repair the house and buy some simple furniture.

The next day, Chen Ming went to Chen's house to discuss with Mrs. Chen and Chen Ye, and asked people to invite the elders of the clan, the fifth ancestor and the third grandfather, as well as Gao Lizheng. The second uncle, who is not named Chen, has cut off contact since the turmoil over production.

After listening to Chen Ming's words, Mrs. Chen and Chen Ye both agreed. One acre of land can separate two outsiders, and it's worth it. Although Ah Fu and Dabao are now stupid and small, eating and drinking will definitely burden the second family, but they can't help but give others a way to live, right? Besides, they can't offend the Wang family to death. In that case, it is Chen Ming who suffers. Perhaps, Chen Afu officially established a female household, and it is not a scandal for her to recognize a son, and it is really easier for Aju to say goodbye.

Originally, Chen Afu also asked Chen Ming to say that the living expenses of their mother and son during the period before they were truly independent were borrowed by Chen Dabao. As for how much money is needed, she doesn't know, so let Chen Ming look at it and say. Chen Afu is afraid that there will be twists and turns in his own female household, and he tries to compromise where he can compromise. But Chen Ming didn't say that he didn't want Ah Fu to suffer too much.

If Chen Ye and the third grandfather really put it forward, women should set up their own doors and live alone. Obviously, Ah Fu and Dabao can't afford to support themselves now, and they are bound to continue to keep the second room. It's no problem to raise them for the time being, but in the future, Chen Dabao will be able to stand on his own, and he must pay back the money that Chen Ming has raised them in the past few years. I don't want much, I always have money for a year.

In the eyes of these people, a girl is no better than a son, how can she be raised for nothing, not to mention that Dabao itself is not the Chen family. It is already benevolent to be able to divide one acre into them and set up a household.

Chen Ming struggled for a few words, but Chen Ye and the third grandfather were more insistent, and Mrs. Chen also thought that more benefits should be left for the lame Ah Lu. If he keeps being lame like this, not only will it be difficult to find a daughter-in-law in the future, but it will also be a problem to do manual work.

Helpless, Chen Ming had to agree. When he came home and saw the joyful treasure, he felt extremely guilty, and the child did not know that he had been saddled with a huge debt at a young age.

He also said a lot of "sorry" and other things to Wang and Chen Afu.

Wang also felt pitiful for his daughter's grandson, and his eyes were red. Thinking of taking more jobs in the future and secretly saving some money for them.

Chen Afu doesn't care, now it is the first to set up a female household, not to mention that she has a way to support her family.

After that, Chen Ming asked Wang to cut two catties of meat, sent it to Gao Lizheng's house, asked him to draw the land, and then went to the county to help with household registration and land deeds.

It didn't take much effort, but Gao Lizheng came and came out in the east of the Chen family's fence wall. This piece of land is narrow and long, flush with the front and back of the Chen family, just enough to build three thatched houses on the left and right, and the fence wall between the two families can share a wall, and the area is much smaller than the small courtyard where they live now. No way, always the money is only enough to buy such a big place.

Two days later, the household registration and title deed stamped with the big red seal were handed over to Chen Afu. Chen Afu looked at Zhile and was finally relieved.

Dabao on the side was so anxious that he pulled Chen Afu's clothes, "Mother, show Dabao, show Dabao." ”

Chen Dabao held the household registration and looked at it again and again, read it out word by word, and asked Chen Ming for the words he didn't know. After reading it, I knew that I had officially become my mother's son, and no one could change it anymore, and I and my mother still had a homestead, and I was very happy.

He solemnly returned the household registration to Chen Afu and said, "Excellent." Mother put it away, hid it, and never lost it. ”

Then, the two of them came to the courtyard hand in hand and looked at the land to the east. The land was overgrown with weeds, a few clumps of bamboo, and a eucalyptus tree.

Chen Afu gestured and said, "When you build a house, keep that eucalyptus tree, so that it can provide shade in summer." Build a chicken pen in the backyard, and let's raise a few chickens. ”

Chen Dabao was so excited that little stars appeared in his eyes, and he pulled Chen Afu's shirt and pouted, "Mother, mother, hug, my son wants to hug." The tone is much more delicate than before, and the tongue is a little unstraight.

This kid, his coquettish skills are really not weak.

Alu, who was amused, laughed out loud.

Chen Afu was also a little funny, but he still struggled to pick him up, seeing his hopeful eyes and smug expression, his heart was indescribably soft. His mother's dementia had not yet healed, and he was already excited before the construction of a thatched house that could shelter him from the wind and rain began. She couldn't help but kiss him on the cheek a few times, first left and right, then the tip of his nose.

Chen Dabao chuckled a few times, and also kissed his mother's face three times, first left and right, and then the tip of his nose. After kissing, he said, "Mother, Dabao is your own son, don't say that Dabao was picked up by you in the future." ”

"Hmm. Chen Afu nodded.

Their mother-son fate has finally been completely settled. The two still don't realize what kind of joys, sorrows, and sorrows they will experience when they become mother and son, supporting each other in this life.

After the joy, Chen Afu knew that his family had borrowed debts and he had written so many blank checks, and the next step was how to make money. It's just that his hands and legs are not very flexible, so let Chen Ming and Wang do some first.

She took a stick and drew the shape of two baskets on the ground, one was a small square basket that was slightly larger and a little shallower, and the other was a small round basket that was slightly smaller and deeper, and explained the specific characteristics. said that this is a sewing basket, let Chen Ming weave it like this, and make some large, medium and small ones. She wanted to wait until June 19, that is, Guanyin Bodhisattva's birthday, to sell it at the Lingyin Temple of Honglin Mountain.

She heard Wang say that on that day, many female pilgrims would come to Lingyin Temple to offer incense, and many of them would come from provincial cities and government cities.

Chen Ming looked at the graphics on the ground and was still a little skeptical, and said, "The sewing basket father has made it up, it's not like this." ”

Chen Afu said with a smile, "The sewing basket is not the same as the sewing basket we used before, and after it is braided, it will be decorated with cloth and winding, which is much better." ”

Chen Afu looked at the ancient sewing baskets and asked Wang's again, all of them were straw or bamboo baskets, which were the same and too simple. Even the most extravagant sewing baskets used by wealthy women were at most made of wood, and the lid was carved with flowers and painted. There is also a very simple style of sewing kits, some like purses, but with a few more layers of cloth sewn together, good to pin the bag, and then some threads inside.

Sewing baskets and sewing kits were indispensable things for women in ancient times, and they almost accompanied women for a lifetime. If you look good, you can make a lot of money.
