Chapter 203: Family Difficulties, Encounters (Asking for Everything)
This sentence is indeed good because children in rural areas become families early.
If it weren't for going to school or being a soldier or something, in the countryside, the age of twenty-five or sixteen would almost be the head of the family, and it might even become the father of the child.
Not to mention anything else, let's just say that Chu Yunqiu's playmates when he was a child, those iron buddies who didn't go to school early, have now started a family, among them, the children are all in school, and the rest of the people, the children will go to the street to play soy sauce, and the few who are married late have children who are also in infancy.
What hurts Chu Yunqiu the most is his brother-in-law, who is about the same age as him, but he married his sister Chu Yuhe, who is half a generation taller than Chu Yunqiu, and he has to call his brother-in-law when he meets, and he and his sister's child, Xiao Niuniu, will now go to the street to make soy sauce.
Children in the countryside get married early and leave home early, because they have responsibilities, they are no longer alone, and they have to support three mouths, one for themselves, one for the wife, and one for the children.
So Chu Yunqiu's playmates when he was a child are now running around outside, some of them mix well, and some of them just make ends meet.
So Chu Yunqiu decided that after he had dealt with some of his own things, Lala's own buddies, although they couldn't make them rich, but at least they could make their lives rich.
When Chu Yunqiu heard Aunt Chen's words, he nodded thoughtfully, Liu Donghai has indeed reached the age of marriage and childbirth, but now marrying a daughter-in-law has become a big problem, especially in the countryside.
If you want a house, a car, and a bride price, and you don't choose people to see how people are, but whether they have money at home.
The car must be a good car, the lowest house is bought in the county, and the bride price is even more pounded.
Parents hope that their daughter's life is good, which is understandable, and they also hope to marry a rich husband and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives, which is also right. But before doing this, do you first see how you look, and even some "Dong Shi" are beginning to be proud. They have all learned to choose, so some poor families are overwhelmed and can't even marry a daughter-in-law.
There are fewer girls and more boys. There are many people who can't marry a daughter-in-law, so some people become more and more proud and want more and more things.
Chu Yunqiu looked at Lu Zhiqing, and sighed in his heart: "It's better to fall in love freely."
Meng Qingyou blinked his eyes, a little puzzled. "Brother-in-law, is 100,000 bride price a lot?" Meng Qingyou doesn't feel much, it's not as much as his pocket money.
Chu Yunqiu is speechless, you can die if you don't say a word.
Chu Yunqiu rolled his eyes at Meng Qingyou, but looking at Meng Qingyou's curious eyes, he had no choice but to explain to him: "For you, 100,000 yuan is a small amount of money, but for a rural family, it is indeed a large amount of money, how much can a family earn in a year, I tell you this, you may not know." I'll do the math for you.
Let's talk about ordinary families, according to the family of three. In rural areas, it is generally men who make money, and women generally take care of their children at home. Migrant workers go out to make money, and their daily wages are basically 150, and a month is calculated as 30 days, even if it is only 4500 rain or shine. For the sake of good calculation, let's calculate it at 5000, even so, twelve months a year. There are only 60,000 in total, and this is still the premise of not eating, drinking, and buying clothes", Chu Yunqiu is telling the truth, and there is no deception at all, because of his side. Most of them are such a group of people.
Chu Yunqiu picked up the porcelain cup in front of him and took a sip to moisten his throat.
Meng Qingyou and Lu Zhiqing listened carefully, they never knew these things.
After Chu Yunqiu drank the tea, he continued, "Also, in a year, you can't work every day, and you can't work every day, after all, your body can't hold on, and when you make money, your family still has to spend money, you can not buy clothes, children can't buy it, if the child goes to school, the tuition fee is not required, but books always need to be paid, and during the New Year's holidays, you have to buy gifts for relatives and friends, and ・・・・・・" Chu Yunqiu began to chatter there, and everyone who listened was dumbfounded.
Liu Aimin and Chen Aifeng were even more stunned, they didn't expect Chu Yunqiu to know in such detail.
"Therefore, even if a family has no illness, no disaster and no accident within a year, it still has to spend a lot of expenses, and it is already very good to have 30,000 or 40,000 yuan left in a year, so it is almost impossible to get rich by working. So my parents taught me since I was a child that if you want to change your fate, you must go to school", Chu Yunqiu said to Meng Qingyou.
"Ah, 150 a day, why is the salary so small", Meng Qingyou stuck out his tongue slightly.
"What do you think? How can there be money to be earned, do you think it is really floating", Chu Yunqiu looked at Meng Qingyou with some amusement.
Meng Qingyou looks like a "little princess" type, she doesn't worry about eating and drinking, she has no worries about food and clothing, she can't spend her pocket money every day, and she won't notice the life at the bottom at all.
"Xiao Chu, what you said is so right, I have made money in the past few years, to be honest, there is not much left at all, the only achievement is to help my son build a house, so that he can have a place to live", Uncle Liu sighed, his face full of helplessness.
Who doesn't want to make money, but how can it be so easy to make money, "Hey, that's all I have in my life, I can't help them too much, I just hope they can start a family soon", Uncle Liu sighed with infinite emotion.
"Don't say it, let's see if Erni can come out and help her brother in the future", Chen Aifeng's face also had a sad face.
"Hey, I hope so," Liu Aimin nodded.
The atmosphere was a little heavy for a while, and Chu Yunqiu was also a little silent, he wanted to help the other party.
There are thousands of families in the world, and there are countless families in difficulty, and some are more difficult than Liu Aimin's family.
If you don't meet it, there is no fate, since you have met it, Chu Yunqiu has to lend a helping hand.
Just help should also be skillful, save enough face for the other party, and not make people feel that they are giving charity.
"Dad, Mom, I brought something", at this time, Liu Donghai walked in from outside.
"Okay, Xiao Chu, let's go and have a look first", Liu Aimin and Chen Aifeng stood up.
"It's okay", Chu Yunqiu nodded, and walked out with Meng Qingyou and Lu Zhiqing.
"This is ・・・・・・" Looking at the dozen or so bamboo cages in the courtyard, Chu Yunqiu hurriedly stepped forward and looked carefully at the pair of beautiful parrots in the birdcage.
The pair of parrots were mostly bright red, with inconspicuous red horizontal feathers on the naked skin near the eyes and cheeks, and some of the red feathers had yellow piping at the back of their heads, and a large part of the head and body were red.
The neck and upper feathers are bright red. The feathers are reddish-yellow, the mandible is large black, the skin of the eyes and bare cheeks is whitish, the overfeathers in the middle of the upper layer of the wings are yellow, the tips are a little green, the main flight feathers on the outermost edge are blue, the overcoats near the tail and the inner side are light blue, the red feathers above the tail are slightly blue at the tips of the outer edges, the tail and the inside of the wings are red, the upper beak is ivory white with a little black, the middle of the lower beak is black, the iris is yellow, and the legs and claws are black.
This pair of parrots is so beautiful that it can even be described as colorful.
"Colorful macaw", Lu Zhiqing, who was behind Chu Yunqiu, exclaimed.
"You recognize it too, Uncle Liu, this is a multicolored macaw", Chu Yunqiu turned his head and looked at Uncle Liu Liu Aimin.
"I don't know, we only know it's a parrot", Liu Aimin shook his head, he really didn't know what a multicolored macaw was.
"You caught this thing?" Chu Yunqiu was a little unconvinced.
"You may not believe it, this is indeed caught by our family, but we guess that this pair of parrots should have been lost by someone else's family, and then got into our family's bird net, but we waited for a long time, and no one came to claim it, so we have been raising it until now", Chen Aifeng explained to Chu Yunqiu.
Chu Yunqiu nodded, the lost one is more credible.
