36. Sister Plan
By the end of February, the chill had already faded, and it was still a little chilly in the early morning and after sunset.
Yang Chunhua wore two short pigtails on top of her head, and was wearing a thin red cotton jacket and a purple gown, on which her sister-in-law was embroidered with red kapok, which gave her a deeper guess about the realm where she was now.
"Little flower, look up, Dad will wash your face."
Yang Tiezhu took a warm towel and walked to his daughter's side, and when he saw that the other party heard his words, he obediently raised his little face, closed his eyes, and waited for him to wash his face.
After wiping his face carefully, "Hand." β
Yang Chunhua obediently stretched out her hands and watched her father carefully wipe her little hands, smiling even brighter.
Then, Yang Tiezhu washed Yang Chunshu, and only took two steps after finishing the story, when he heard his son ask his daughter, "Sister, do you want to eat eggs?" β
Yang Tiezhu's heart suddenly soured, and he wanted to walk but couldn't lift it.
After the two children were weaned, he knew that the eldest brother-in-law still had some silver, and his father was still ready to use the money to make up for the two children.
It was also he who told his eldest brother-in-law that now that the eldest sister is pregnant, their family is in the county seat, and they originally had to buy everything to eat, and the cost was also large, so they should not send any more silver.
Han Dapeng understood Yang Tiezhu's considerations, he has been raising two children alone like this, and after a long time, not only adults have ideas in their hearts, but even children will be affected.
It's just that the eight children in the family, big and small, how long can that bit of silver last, now think about it, after the Lantern Festival, the children in the family drink rice paste and vegetable paste almost every day.
Therefore, his little flower wants to eat eggs, so he squats next to the chicken pen early in the morning.
"I don't want to," however, the baby girl replied very neatly what was going on, "Brother, what's so delicious about eggs, they smell of." β
Yang Chunhua didn't really want to, it's just that her father looked like he was about to cry, and at a glance she knew what he was thinking, working hard enough every day, how could she be willing to increase the burden on his heart.
Yang Tiezhu couldn't react a little, this was simply neat and a very disgusting tone, he was definitely not lying, so what was his sadness and sadness just now?
"Brother, do you want to eat?"
Yang Chunshu felt that he was becoming less and less aware of what this sister was thinking in his head all day, was it because he was not a real child?
"My sister doesn't want to, and I don't want to."
It was not strange for Yang Chunhua and Yang Tiezhu to answer each other.
"That sister, what are we doing here?" Yang Chunshu then asked.
"Brother, you'll find out soon."
How old a person is, he has learned to hang people's appetites, and the curious Yang Tiezhu father and son were speechless.
It was a sunny morning, most of the Yang family went to the field, and the third aunt Li stayed at home today, but at this time, she also went out to hunt pigweed.
Under the jujube tree, the six children gathered together, and Yang Chunhua said with a serious face: "Do you remember what I told you before, we are going to do a big thing? β
The other four children nodded.
Yang Chunshu was puzzled, he was with his sister every day, how could he not know anything.
The youngest Xiao Chunxi was a little confused, this was because he had forgotten about it a long time ago, but seeing that his brothers and sisters were nodding, he also followed.
"We need to let the adults know that we are no longer children, so that next year, they will no longer be able to keep our New Year's money." Yang Chunhua's soft voice was full of unconvincing.
"Well," Yang Chunlin, Yang Chunmei and Yang Chuntao nodded vigorously, "That little flower sister, what are we going to do?" β
All three pairs of eyes looked at her with eager excitement.
For this effect, Yang Chunhua is very satisfied,
"Each of us has ten cents in our hands, a total of sixty cents, yesterday I specially asked my aunt, the chicks are four cents a piece, then we can buy fifteen chicks, right?"
The three big ones began to bow their heads and count their fingers, pondering for a long time and not knowing whether the result was right or wrong, but they didn't want to be underestimated by their sister.
"Yes." The three of them said in unison.
Yang Chunshu and Xiao Chunxi also nodded, the difference was that the former knew it in their hearts, and the latter was a mess.
"Think about it, we only have a total of twelve chickens in our house, if we can raise fifteen chicks, it means that those adults are not as good as us."
The latter sentence made Yang Chunmei's eyes light up, and she really felt that it was a powerful feeling.
"The most important thing is that we use our copper plate to buy chicks, and then we raise them ourselves, so that we can eat the eggs laid by the grown hens as we like, and when the eggs are enough, we can also eat chicken."
Recalling the taste of eggs, the other four babies swallowed their saliva with a yearning face.
"How? Are you going to come with me and my brother? Anyway, my brother and I have already decided to use the New Year's money from the ten copper plates to buy chicks. Yang Chunhua looked at Yang Chunshu, not worried at all that he would pull his legs.
Yang Chunshu, who was originally a little surprised, understood everything when he heard the last sentence that eggs can be eaten casually, little baby, how can there be anything undelicious.
However, he doesn't object to this, it's not for stuttering, compared to playing a boring game of children chasing me every day, this is a serious matter, with his help, he should be able to raise chickens.
"Yes." Yang Chunshu nodded solemnly.
Yang Chunlin and the three of them wrinkled their faces and thought seriously.
"Sister Xiaohua, I decided to follow you, anyway, the copper plate is placed there and can't be eaten." Yang Chunmei was the first to speak, and Yang Chuntao nodded.
Yang Chunlin asked, "That little flower sister, do you know how to raise chickens?" β
"Well," Yang Chunhua nodded, and took out a few fresh wild vegetables from her arms, "This is what I brought when my sister-in-law was chopping chicken food, you see, my sister-in-law said that there are a lot of fields and hillsides outside." β
The older three people each took one and looked at it seriously, and they who had already left the courtyard nodded, "We all know these." β
The younger Chunxi saw that his little flower sister only had the only one in her hand, so she hurriedly grabbed it, and also learned from her brothers and sisters to stare at it with wide eyes.
Yang Chunshu really felt that his sister might really be the prodigy that his uncle said, so he would not be able to keep up with her train of thought after living a long time.
"Also, I have watched the chickens in the chicken pen be released in the past few days, and they are also eating insects, I think, chickens eating insects must be equivalent to us eating meat, and when the time comes, we can catch some insects for them to eat, so that they can grow faster." Yang Chunhua continued.
That's why my sister has been staring at the chickens in the house for the past two days? Brother Yang Chunshu felt that he had learned the truth.
The other four nodded, they had already begun to imagine the beautiful scene of fifteen hens, the eggs laid every day became the food in their mouths, egg custard, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, omelets, they ate this and then changed to another, how nice.
Sucking, four voices rang out.
Yang Chunmei wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, "Then what are you waiting for, let's go get the copper plate." With that, he turned around and ran.
The others followed them into their houses.
Yang Chunshu and Yang Chunhua returned to the room and took out the twenty copper plates that were put together, "Sister, where can I buy chicks?" β
"This is easy to do, I asked my sister-in-law yesterday, saying that at this time in our village, there are special chicks and then go to the county seat to sell!" Yang Chunhua opened her mouth and said, "We ask my sister-in-law for help, and she will definitely agree." β
Yang Chunshu thought about it, it is true, at this time of year, there are many elderly people who can't go to the ground at home, they will do this, and it is a point to exchange some money.
Then, when Yang Baozhu received sixty copper plates, and then heard his nephew and niece chatter about their plan, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, "You, are you sure?" β
The six little heads nodded, "Auntie, are you with us?" β
Look at the question asked, she is already a married person, and she is still divided into a group of little children, and she doesn't feel anything happy about it.
It's just that she couldn't say anything like "she wants to be with the adults" in the face of six pairs of round eyes.
"Auntie, you just need to help us buy it, we won't trouble you with other things, it's a big deal to wait for the hen to lay eggs, and we'll share your eggs to eat." Yang Chunmei said according to what they had discussed before.
"Me." Yang Baozhu wanted to say that no matter how greedy she was, she could still afford eggs.
At this time, Xiao Chunxi received the eyes of his brothers and sisters, "Auntie." β
That little pitiful look, as if the other party didn't agree, he could immediately cry.
"Okay, I promise you," Yang Baozhu recalled the excitement of these children, knowing that if she didn't agree, I'm afraid she wouldn't want to calm down and embroider today.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." The six children said in unison, with the same bright smiles on their faces.
Seeing that Yang Baozhu was also happy in her heart, she thought, anyway, this copper plate was also promised to them by her father, so let's do it according to their ideas, the big deal is to wait for the little chick to buy it back, she will look at it more.
"Mother, I'll go out for a while." Under the expectant gaze of the six children, Yang Baozhu carried all their property in his arms, walked out of the room, and said to the Fan family inside when he passed the door of the hall.
"Go ahead."
"So we'll have eggs to eat in the future?" This is what Xiao Chunxi is most worried about.
Yang Chunhua touched his head, "As long as you are obedient, there will be eggs, and there will be chicken." β
It's a pity that no one understands such a philosophical sentence of life.
Xiao Chunxi immediately nodded and promised, "I'm the most obedient." β
Then, a few children got together and began to discuss how to raise chicks, and now in their eyes, this chick is their toy, or a toy that can be eaten in the future.
At least for a short time, it is attractive to them.
After a while, Yang Baozhu came back with a cage, and the six children swarmed around, looking at the chicks with small yellow fluff inside, and they suddenly liked it.
"Oh, don't move, I'm messing up." Yang Chunmei was counting one by one, but as a result, the little chicks who didn't count ran into the chicks she had already said, and she was in a hurry.
Sister Yang Chuntao also nodded, "Sister, they are disobedient." β
"Don't count, there are eighteen in total, because they are acquaintances, give me three for ten cents, so it's really good for you to have three each." Yang Baozhu said with a smile.
Yang Chunhua was very satisfied with this result, "Auntie, give each of us an embroidery thread of different colors, cut it into three sections and put it on the neck of the little chick, so that we can distinguish which three belong to whom, and who should raise it." β
"Little Flower is so smart." Yang Baozhu praised.
Yang Chunmei immediately spoke, "I want red." β
"Then I want to powder." This is Yang Chuntao's voice.
"Sure enough, it's a girl, I like bright colors, auntie, I want black." Yang Chunlin scorned his sister and younger sister.
Xiao Chunxi, who originally wanted to say yellow, immediately changed his words when he thought that he was also a male baby, pointing to his gray handkerchief, "I want this color." β
"Green." Yang Chunhua doesn't care.
"Blue." Yang Chunshu has the same attitude.
"Okay, Auntie, I'll go get it for you," Yang Baozhu said with a smile, and after a while, he took out the embroidery thread cut into three sections of different colors.
"Which of you picks first."
"Chunxi is the youngest, he comes first." Yang Chunmei opened her mouth and said, and this was agreed by the other four big ones.
When Xiao Chunxi heard this, he was overjoyed, he was the first to pick it.
Then he happily looked at the eighteen chicks in the cage, and carefully selected three, with Yang Baozhu as the main force, and the other six children watched the excitement and helped to make trouble, and began to tie embroidery thread on the neck of the chicks.
Yang Baozhu is worthy of being an excellent girl in the female red, with ingenuity, which not only ensures that the embroidery thread on the neck of the chick will not fall off, but also will not strangle the neck of the chick.
"What are you doing?" Fan listened to the noise in the yard and didn't stop, and ran out to take a look, "Where did the little chick come from?" β
After knowing the reason, he glared at Yang Baozhu, "You just spoil them and make trouble." β
Having said that, thinking that the other two little grandsons were sleeping, she also went to help, of course, she was also worried that this child's hands were not heavy, don't kill the little chick, what a pity.
When the matter was over, the six children each looked at their own three chicks, and they didn't like it, and the feeling of growing up instantly with the red envelope appeared in their hearts again.
"Grandma, we're going to find something to eat for the chicks." Yang Chunmei said with a smile.
The other five nodded.
"You wait." Fan Shi did not object, after saying this, he turned around and entered the room where the farm tools and miscellaneous items were placed, and soon, he carried six small baskets of some years and months, and the big bowl at home to check the small basket of small sizes, and after wiping it clean, he said with a smile: "This is what your grandfather made up for your father and them, and now you can use it." β
"Well," the six children nodded, the small basket was really small, it didn't weigh much, it was Xiao Chunxi, and he didn't feel heavy when he carried it in his hand.
"Don't go far."
"Got it, Grandma." The six children replied in unison.
The group really didn't go far, just on the edge of the vegetable field in front of the yard, they found tender wild vegetables that could be eaten by chickens, and began to pull them with their hands one by one.
"Brother Chunlin, I can't talk about it."
Xiao Chunxi saw that the other brothers and sisters already had a lot in their baskets, but he only had two, and he had wasted a lot of energy, so he cried and cried in a hurry.
The children who were working hard raised their heads and looked at him, and Yang Chunlin, who was shouting, thought for a while, "In this way, we will help you get it, and you will catch insects on the vegetable leaves on the edge of the ground." β
When he said this, he was afraid that Xiao Chunxi would not understand, Yang Chunlin looked at a green worm on the green vegetables, grabbed it, and put it in Chunxi's basket, "You will do this." β
Xiao Chunxi smiled and nodded, this feeling was quite easy, and then his bright eyes looked directly at the nearest vegetable leaf and began to catch insects.
Others have no opinion, Xiao Chunxi is the youngest, and they should take care of him as older brothers and sisters.
Among several people, Yang Chunshu's movements were the fastest, and he glanced at the baskets of several younger brothers and sisters, "I think it's almost, the chicks are still small, and they can't eat much." β
"Well, then let's go back." The boss who didn't understand at all, Yang Chunmei nodded.
So, the group returned home with their harvest.
Chopping wild vegetables and insects, Yang Chunlin felt that he was a male baby, and he should do it, but when he went to get the knife, "Ouch, my little ancestor, this is not something you can take, do you want grandma to help you chop it?" β
Before his hand touched the knife, he was stopped by Fan.
"No, grandma, we want to raise it ourselves, of course we have to get it ourselves." Yang Chunlin frowned and thought, Sister Xiaohua said, if they raise these little chicks by themselves, it means that they are better than adults, but if grandma helps, they can't be better than grandma.
"You can't hold a knife anyway." Fan's attitude is very resolute, just kidding, what should I do if such a young child is hurt?
Yang Chunlin, who was originally full of interest, was very shocked, and replied to the team with a little red eyes, "Brother Chunlin, what's wrong with you?" β
"Grandma won't let you use a knife." Yang Chunlin was very aggrieved.
The two Yang Chunmei sisters were worried, "Then what should I do?" β
They just want to raise chicks, why is it so difficult.
Yang Chunhua and Yang Chunlin thought it was normal, but Xiao Chunxi thought that if he couldn't feed the chicks, it wouldn't grow big, and then he wouldn't have eggs to eat.
"Brother Chunlin, don't be sad, you can't use a knife, we can tear it with our hands, if it doesn't work, you can also use a stone to smash it, just break the wild vegetables and insects so that the chicks can eat it."
Yang Chunhua hurriedly comforted the depressed little friend.
"Well," Yang Chunshu thought it was okay and ran out to find a stone, Yang Chunhua was not at ease, so she went out, and the others naturally put away their sadness and went out hand in hand.
By the time they arrived, the siblings had already picked two thinner stone chips.
"I'll get it." The first time he was stopped by his grandmother, this time, Yang Chunlin strongly asked to leave this matter to him.
"Okay," Yang Chunhua handed him the stone piece in his hand, "Brother Chunlin, be careful, don't smash it." β
The three sisters plus Xiao Chunxi squatted on the side and handed the ingredients to the two chefs, which was not very smooth at first, but after a few times, it was easy, and the food of the little chick slowly came out.
"Brother Chunlin, you are so amazing."
Yang Chunlin's injured heart just now was said by these words, and he suddenly recovered.
When the wild vegetables were mashed and the insects were divided, the six of them happily learned the appearance of the adults in the family when they fed the chickens, each grabbed a handful, sprinkled it in the chicken cage, and clucked in his mouth.
"Well, when Dad comes back, I'll ask him to help me make a chicken cage for me, and only hold my three chickens." Yang Chunhua said.
"I want it too." Yang Chunmei opened her mouth and said: "Brother Chunlin's chicks are always grabbing food, not good chicks. β
The others nodded.
When Li came back, he saw that his son was circling around the little chick, "Chunlin, where did you come from?" β
"Mother, I bought it with my New Year's money, you see, these three black ones are mine." Yang Chunlin said with a smile: "When the chicks grow up and lay eggs, I will give them to my mother." β
"Well," Li pulled out a smile and nodded, then touched Yang Chunlin's head, "Chunlin, you are still young, my mother will help you raise it." β
"No, I've grown up and can raise it myself."
Yang Chunhua watched from the side, shaking her head in her heart, Brother Chunlin was so obviously waiting for his mother's praise expression, why didn't the third aunt see it.
Li still wanted to say something, but when he saw his mother-in-law coming out of the hall, he turned around and said hello, and then went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
At noon that day, several of the people who had returned from working in the fields were immediately surrounded.
"Mother, you come to see my little chick." Yang Chunmei pulled Wang to the side of the chicken coop, "The red one is mine." β
Yang Chuntao didn't move as fast as her sister, so she had to run to his father, "Dad, you have to make me a bigger chicken coop." β
Yang Chunhua and Yang Chunshu brothers and sisters pounced directly on Yang Tiezhu.
Xiao Chunxi stretched out his arms and let Yang Jinzhu hug him.
Yang Chunlin once again said the matter to Yang Yinzhu with an expression of waiting for praise.
It's just that the children's speech has no beginning or end, and the voices of the six children are overwhelmed by one another, and several adults are confused.
After learning what had happened from Yang Baozhu, Wang smiled and said proudly: "It is worthy of being my daughter, she is so diligent and sensible at such a young age." β
These words made everyone in the Yang family speechless, but the two Yang Chunmei sisters listened very usefully, and couldn't stop nodding their heads.
The Yang Tiezhu brothers had no objection to their children's requests, "Wait, Dad will make it up for you when he comes back in the evening, one for each person." β
Yang Dashuo's smile is also extraordinarily bright.
"Xianggong, Xiaoxi is still young, why don't I help him raise it." Zhou thought for a moment and said.
"I'm going to raise it myself." Xiao Chunxi, who could already speak clearly, immediately nestled in his father's arms and said.
"Listen to my son," Yang Jinzhu didn't look at Zhou, but held Xiao Chunxi and smashed it twice in his face, seeing his son giggle, "Xiaoxi, it's up to you whether Dad can eat eggs or not." β
"Don't worry, Dad." Xiao Chunxi assured.
During the afternoon break, Yang Dazhuan went to Yang Tianyou's study.
"Old Five, you say, will the behavior of the children in the family be too out of line?"
"Dad, you think too much," seeing that his father's expression didn't look like a joke, Yang Tianyou replied seriously, "As far as the baby in our village is concerned, there are many children in our village who follow adults to pick up firewood on the hillside at the age of five, and pick up grain in the field when harvesting grain. β
Yang Dazhuan nodded, "That's the same." β
"Dad, I think it's a good thing, do you know the children of my classmates in the county? I started reading at the age of three, and by the time I was five years old, I already knew a lot of things. β
Yang Tianyou continued, "So, there's nothing out of the ordinary, and besides, they don't think it's fresh, and they're not interested in it after a few days." β
"Hmph, if that's the case, I'll beat them." Because of the birth of the dragon and phoenix fetus, Yang Dazhuan often observes several children in the family, and he can't say the high hopes he has for them, and now he hears the fifth child say this, the child's worry is too out of line is gone, but he is a little lost in his heart.
However, it is also true that he does not want a few children to give up halfway.
Yes, it was a child's play, but now that his father is still interested, Yang Tianyou shook his head amusedly.
Regarding the matter of children raising chickens, Zhao Cuiniang has no other ideas.
Since she was weaned, she has eaten the same as everyone in the family every day, and her mother-in-law, who has become strict, makes her miss the days when she could still breastfeed.
"Dad, don't worry, what's mine is yours, when the chicks grow up and lay eggs, you can eat as much as you want." Yang Chunhua, who was lying on the bed, spoke.
"Me too." Yang Chunshu followed his sister.
Zhao Cuiniang was a little depressed when she heard this, "There is no mother." β
Yang Chunhua was a little surprised that her mother was so outspoken, but she rolled to her side with a bright smile, "How can there be no mother, I am eating eggs for my father, and when the time comes, I will give my mother chicken and drink chicken soup." β
"Well," Yang Chunshu also nodded, although he still had some bumps about the memory of his mother's previous life, but he would definitely not be reluctant to be filial.
Yang Tiezhu smiled happily, "Then you can let your mother make it up for you, Dad can't even eat a piece of chicken, and he can't drink a mouthful of chicken soup, what are you doing with that effort?" β
"Dad, I'll give it all to you." Yang Chunshu is an honest child, and immediately spoke.
Yang Chunhua looked at Yang Tiezhu and yawned delicately, "Dad, I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you, I'm sleepy." β
Yang Tiezhu reached out and hugged her over, "Then hurry up and sleep." β
In the second room, the two sisters Yang Chunmei were talking about the morning's events, Wang and Yang Tongzhu listened, and asked from time to time, and after a while, a family of five squeezed into the big bed and fell asleep.
In the third room, seeing that the two sons were asleep, Yang Yinzhu pulled the Li family out.
"Li, if you have something to say, don't spit out, and, I sue you, when the child is happy in the future, even if you are unhappy, don't stretch my bitter gourd face in front of the child, you are a mother-in-law, didn't you see the child being made so happy by your face just now?"
was reprimanded with a split head and a face, and Li Shi recalled that just now in bed, Chunlin kept calling "Dad, how am I today", and it seemed that he had never called her.
"Xianggong, no," Li knew that Xianggong had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "I'm not putting on a face for the child, I'm just thinking that Chunlin is a male baby, and this matter of raising chickens is only done by a female baby." β
Yang Yinzhu's face darkened, he really wanted to pry open this woman's brain and see what was inside.
"Then, Chunlin is playing alone, and the other five children feed the chickens, you can help him feed the chickens, but can you help him cultivate a relationship with his younger brothers and sisters?"
Li was a little confused, she knew how important it was for brothers and sisters to unite, the Yang family and her mother's family were two extreme examples, of course, it would be best if these two extremes could be exchanged.
"No, you mean those children won't play with Chunlin because of this."
If it weren't for the fact that everyone else in the family was taking a nap, he would have wanted to yell at Li, "What are you letting him play with them?" β
"However, Chunlin wants to study." This is what Li is most concerned about.
"Chunshu and Chunxi are also going to study." Yang Yinzhu felt that it didn't make sense to talk to her, so he simply said in a tough tone.
"Okay, son's business, in the future, except for laundry and cooking, you don't have to worry about anything else."
Seeing that Li was in a hurry to speak, Yang Yinzhu glared at her fiercely, "Don't worry, if you can't delay your son's study, I warn you, Chunlin doesn't open his mouth, and you are not allowed to interfere in raising chickens." Also, don't let me look at you and put a face on your son when you're okay in the future, you don't want to think about what your son looks like if he grows up and becomes like you. β
"I see, Xianggong." Li Shi nodded immediately, because she knew that if she said anything else, the other party would directly move her fist.
The Zhou family in the fourth room didn't think as much as the Li family, but Chunxi was the youngest in that bunch of children, and she would always worry that he would suffer.
said to his son again: "Xiaoxi, can't you play well with Chunbang and Chunxu?" β
Then, Xiao Chunxi gave the same answer again, "It's not good, what's fun with two little kids, naΓ―ve." β
No matter how many times Zhou listens to this, he will be choked, and if he wants to persuade him, Xiao Chunxi has been hugged by Yang Jinzhu's side, lying down, and the two fathers and sons are muttering and muttering incomprehensible words, is there a son's laughter.
Every time at this time, she was very panicked in her heart, it had been nearly a year since that incident, why was this man still angry.
In the afternoon, six dolls carried their small baskets and walked out of the courtyard gate, "This time let's go farther." β
"Sister Xiaohua, where are you going?" Yang Chunlin asked.
"Do you know where the school is?"
"I know, it's just what we're going to do there." Yang Chunmei looked puzzled.
Yang Chunhua looked at the five dolls with an expression that you don't understand, "Go and see what the people in the village are playing, grandpa They all said that Yang Juren is the most powerful in the village, I think, he will definitely teach them to play more fun." β
"Sister Xiaohua, you are so smart, why didn't I think of it." A few dolls suddenly realized.
Yang Chunshu wondered in his heart, can Yang Juren also play?
So, the six dolls slowly walked towards the village school, and on the way they met people, their mouths were as sweet as if they had eaten honey, and they were crying very cheerfully, it was Yang Chunshu, who seemed to be under the influence of his sister's accumulation over time, and his mouth was furious.
I happily came to the school in the village, not so much a school as a farmer's yard, which is said to have been left by the desperate people in the village, and after the people in the village repaired it, it was used as a school.
The six dolls did not go in, but looked outside at the courtyard with the open door, and lined up with a group of male dolls of different sizes, not many of them, about forty or fifty, shaking their heads and reading the most basic enlightenment books.
"I can't understand what they're reading." Yang Chunlin spoke, and the four children, including Yang Chunshu, nodded.
Yang Chunhua said: "I don't understand either, but what's the matter, we will look for wild vegetables for the chickens to eat around, and when they rest in between, we will know what they are playing." β
The other five nodded, and playing was their purpose.
When I went back in the afternoon, the six dolls were very happy, "Sister Xiaohua, let's come over tomorrow morning, play with them, it's so interesting." β
Everyone nodded to this.
"Okay." Yang Chunhua didn't feel embarrassed at all when the children in the school were resting and playing, and a few of them ran in to play together.
So, in the following days, the six dolls of the Yang family would carry a small basket to the school every day, and when they played inside, they followed along, and when they were reading, they were preparing the food of the chicks nearby, but the distance always ensured that they could hear the sound of reading.
Every few days, Yang Chunhua will also guide the dolls in the school to come up with more fun games to attract her family's five little dolls.
Listening to the school every day, and then the uncle tells the story in the evening, plus the matter of raising chickens, cultivating the perseverance of the children, the so-called stupid birds fly first, plus the children's brains themselves are not stupid, she doesn't believe it, under the edification of day after day, when they go to school, the homework will be poor.
Sure enough, a month later, the effect came out.
That night, Yang Tianyou still told them a story after dinner, which mentioned the three-character scripture, and just finished saying "At the beginning of man, nature is good".
"I know that." The children's eyes lit up, and they were all happy to hear that they were familiar.
Yang Tianyou didn't care about being interrupted, and asked with a smile, "What do you know?" Chunxi, you say it first. β
It is still the tradition of the Yang family, if there is a scramble between brothers and sisters, let the younger one go first.
"At the beginning of people, their nature is good, their sex is similar, and their habits are far away." Xiao Chunxi answered two sentences fluently, which already surprised Yang Jinzhu and Zhou, who were watching the excitement on the side, "Don't teach, sex is moving, teach, teach." β
Then he looked at his brothers and sisters, and he didn't know what was next.
"Stupid, it's the way of teaching, and it's expensive to be specialized." The older Yang Chunmei was connected without pressure.
Wang stared at her daughter with wide eyes, "My daughter can read?" She couldn't believe it and said excitedly.
Next, a few older children one after another, when they didn't think of it, Yang Chunhua would remind it without a trace, and as a result, Yang Tianyou was very surprised, although it was a few children together, but it was already rare to be able to recite the first twenty sentences without traveling.
"How would you be?" Yang Tianyou asked with some excitement.
"Uncle, we listen to those scholars in the school every day, and if we listen to it a lot, of course we will remember it." Yang Chunmei leaned up on her little neck, like a proud little peacock waiting for praise at this time.
"Ouch, my daughter is amazing," Wang hugged her, kissing her.
Her other three concubines said in their hearts, no matter how powerful they are, the girl can't enter the school, and she will have to marry in the future.
From Yang Tianyou's excited expression, the Yang family saw something, "What, is this very powerful?" β
"Of course, I thought they went to the school every day to play, but I didn't expect that they could listen to a lot." Yang Tianyou thought for a while and looked at his father, "Otherwise, I won't tell stories every night in the future, and I'll tell you to learn words." β
The adults of the Yang family naturally nodded, but Yang Chunhua refused without thinking about it, "Don't, you have to listen to the story." β
And when the adults of the Yang family didn't know, several dolls were already used to Yang Chunhua as the mainstay, "Yes, you want to listen to the story." β
Yang Chunshu wanted to learn to write, but the other five dolls disagreed, and if he was too special, he might be suspicious.
This surprised Yang Tianyou and the Yang family, "Why?" β
"We have arranged things every day, raising chickens, going to the school to play, and listening to stories at night."
Yang Chunhua crossed her fingers and said, she objected because the children were young, and the most important thing for them now was to play, so that they could learn something from playing, and she had thought about it for a long time before she came up with it.
But if you obey the arrangements of adults, boring learning to write, the possibility of perseverance is too small, and the biggest possibility is that a few children in the family will not even want to listen to the sound of reading in the school.
The difference between active and passive is huge.
"Yes." A few people nodded their heads.
Wang didn't think there was anything, although she kept saying that her family's spring list would be studied and tested for fame in the future, but in fact, her attitude towards children was all inherited from Wang Fugui, and the specific expression was what she could grow up to be, how much ability she could eat, and the only requirement was that she couldn't go the wrong way.
But the Zhou family, the Li family and Zhao Cuiniang are different, they have high hopes for their son, and now they hear that the two rejections are started by Yang Chunhua, not to mention that the two aunts are very dissatisfied, even Zhao Cuiniang, I also feel that I have to talk about this daughter in private.
"Old Five, what do you say?" When it came to reading, several members of the Yang family asked Yang Tianyou's opinion.
Yang Tianyou calmed down and thought for a while before he spoke: "Dad, I think it's better to listen to the child, it's good to be like this now." β
"Fifth brother, didn't you just agree? It won't be a remorse, it won't delay you much," Then, as soon as his words fell, Li's voice sounded, and then the Yang family's knife eyes looked at her one after another.
"Li, you haven't been beaten enough last year, have you?" Fan said directly.
Li actually regretted it when he said it, and now when he heard his mother-in-law mention the previous incident, his face turned even pale.
"Fifth brother, I was wrong," quickly apologized, and then hurriedly said what she meant, "I just thought, children are so young, what do they know, if they listen to them for everything, what can it do." β
