Chapter 60: The family road is difficult, but it's good to have you
With Juniper helping to carry the glutinous rice flour, Du Yun's way home from the town was very easy, chatting with his eldest brother along the way, Du Yun's good impression of this eldest brother increased by leaps and bounds. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The eldest brother Juniper is an apprentice in a big shop in the town, not an ordinary grocery store, but a large trading house, and his apprentice is now of a high rank, and he helps by the shopkeeper's side, although he still takes the apprentice's money, and his knowledge and connections are no longer comparable to ordinary apprentices.
Du Yun chatted with his eldest brother, and felt that although he looked serious and serious, and carried the responsibility of his eldest brother, he was not a stubborn person, but he was very mellow in some aspects. Such an attitude to the world not only makes people feel safe, but also does not know how to be flexible because they are too rigid, but it is a good material to be a shopkeeper.
After speaking, several people have already returned home, and the whole family is very happy because of Juniper and Du Yang coming home, grandma asked Du Yunniang to buy Du Yun back before, and the pork belly that is ready to be kept for the Mid-Autumn Festival is stewed, which shows how grand it is.
Du Yun's sister Du Zhi's wedding date is the eighth day of August, and there is still more than a month to go, but because the family is poor, Du Yun's sister's dowry has nothing else except a red dress and a new bed, so although the wedding date is approaching, the Du family has no atmosphere to prepare for marriage at all.
"This is the tobacco brought back to the grandparents, this is the tea, the eldest sister used for tea when she goes out, these two materials, thinking about giving the eldest sister as a dowry......" After putting down Du Yun's glutinous rice flour, Juniper opened the burden in the crowd and took things out one by one.
Du Yun looked at the gifts that his eldest brother brought to the head of the family, and suddenly felt that his face was a little hot. Before the crossing, I didn't have a family, and I made money to buy things, although I seemed to think of buying something for the people in the family, but it was mainly due to my own temperament, mainly to buy food.
But his eldest brother juniper is different, tobacco, tea, cloth and the like are all used in the right place. Tobacco is something that grandparents can't do without every day, and the two old **** have to smoke that bite, if they are missing, they won't be able to live a day.
Tea is precious, when the eldest sister goes out, there is also to the in-law's house, all of them are to serve tea, whether the tea is good or not, it is directly related to the face of the eldest sister, as well as the fabric...... Du Yun began to reflect deeply on herself, the lonely days have been too long, although she wants to be considerate of her family, but she has this mind but has no heart, it is too far behind.
When the whole family was laughing and laughing, Du Yun secretly made up her mind that she should work hard and cherish these hard-won family members, starting with helping her sister prepare for marriage.
On the night Juniper returned, the whole family had a sumptuous dinner with meat, and each of them had a comfortable smile on their faces. Juniper came back and brought the salary he had saved for a long time, just to buy some dowry for his eldest sister, and naturally everything revolved around this theme.
"Milk, this is the salary I saved in the first half of the year, I totaled it, took half of it out and handed it over to the family as a family, and the other half bought some dowry for the eldest sister." In the dim light, Jun Song took out fifty yuan from his pocket and put it in front of Grandma Du Yun, there were only two of them in the house at this time, and Grandma Du Yun knew that Jun Song was going to give money when he came back, and she spent all the people in the house.
"Take half of it out and give it to Zhiya?" When Grandma Du Yun saw the fifty yuan, the smile on her face really couldn't stop, she could save fifty yuan in half a year, and it seemed that Juniper's salary had risen again.
But is it too much to take half of it out and give it to Du Zhi as a dowry? At the beginning, their family's dowry was only fifty yuan, and half of it was sent over as a dowry?
"Grandma, twenty-five yuan is not much, the eldest sister's dowry has been paid back to our family, her dowry is so thin, I am afraid that I will be looked down upon by my in-laws when I get married." Jun Song looked at her grandmother's appearance, and knew that she disliked giving twenty-five yuan too much, but Du Zhi was her own sister, and if she married without a dowry, how would she live in the future!
"That's the reason, but what's going on with your marriage?" Grandma Du Yun is not a person who doesn't love her granddaughter, otherwise she wouldn't be so good to Du Yun, but her granddaughter is important, and her grandson is even more important.
"Grandma, my eldest sister's marriage is just around the corner, my ...... I can still earn it in the future! Juniper felt a little sour in his heart, there was only so much money in total, and he had to focus on the most urgent things first.
As for talking about yourself...... Juniper sighed, it was so easy for him and his second brother to marry a daughter-in-law? Not to mention that he has been in debt for decades, even if he pays off his debts now, the family has no foundation at all, so it is said that the house in the family is dilapidated and small, and the new daughter-in-law does not even have a place to live when she enters the door, how can anyone marry him.
"Alas......" Grandma Du Yun also sighed, her grandson's idea was not hers, but the palms and backs of her hands were full of meat, and although this penny was broken in half, it was still not enough to spend.
"!" Du Yun stood at the door, listening to the lack of movement in the room for a long time, and shouted softly.
"It's Du Yun, come in." Grandma Du Yun took a deep breath, put away the money that Juniper brought back, and turned around, Du Yun had already entered the house.
"Milk, this is the money I earn today." Du Yun took out a five-yuan ticket from his pocket, put it on the kang and pushed it to Du Yun's grandmother.
"Five bucks?" Du Yun's grandmother and Jun Song were both shocked by Du Yun, one was surprised that Du Yun only earned a piece of five last time, this time there were five yuan, which rose too fast, and Du Yun was shocked that the money Du Yun earned in a day was more than when he was an apprentice.
"Milk, I made a lot of dim sum today, and I only bought some glutinous rice noodles, so I have a little more money left. I'm going to make more dim sum recently, and my eldest sister is about to get married, so hurry up and earn some money to give her a dowry. ”
"Okay, you're all good boys!" Grandma Du Yun's eyes were slightly moist, although the family was difficult, but this group of children who grew up were all good children, not to mention that they could make money, and they were all so brothers and sisters, which was really a blessing for the old Du family.
Handed over the money to grandma, the juniper brothers and sisters returned to their house, looking at the happy parents and siblings, juniper smiled on his face, and mysteriously took out a small paper bag from his arms, beckoning to everyone, causing everyone to stretch their necks to see.
