Chapter 53 Going out to learn art and seek development
After the official errand left, the village chief, at the unanimous request of the villagers, drove the dog family out of Hetian Village. Such a black-hearted person can never be left behind, in the scolding of the villagers.
The dog's family, who stole chickens and rice, could only leave the village in disgrace, and in desperation, they could only go to their mother's house a few hills away.
The villagers drove them away, and they slowly forgot about it, but the dog family recorded all the accounts on the Tian family.
The autumn harvest is coming, will winter be far away? In this mountainous area with a long winter, every household began an intense winter storage work.
Tian Miao did not go to the studio again, but stayed at home and followed Fu Shi to cut, dry and harvest all kinds of vegetables.
Work at the lumber yard was also halted for the autumn harvest, and in the cold north, grain could only be grown for one season. Every family attaches great importance to the autumn harvest, which is related to the lives of the family, so the men are busy harvesting, who has the leisure to go up the mountain to cut wood.
"Miao'er, you're too coarse, it's so old and coarse, you can't dry it until next year, give me a heavy cut." Fu Shi just cut a pot of radishes from Tian Miao and put them back to her.
"I look okay." Tian Miao picked up the one he cut and compared it with the Li family and Liu Zhaodi on the side.
After seeing the obvious gap, he immediately changed his words and said with a smile:
"Milk, don't be angry, I'll cut it again to ensure that it is cut quickly and well." Seeing her smiling face, Fu Shi glared at her angrily, but didn't say anything more.
"You, the work in this house is not as good as day by day, from tomorrow, you follow Zhao Di to the kitchen every day. A girl, she can't handle the work at home, but she can't do it. Li's words immediately sent Tian Miao into the bottomless abyss.
A month later, the autumn harvest was over, and the Tian family began to get busy again. They have to wrap all the young saplings on the mountain, which are newly planted this year, with straw ropes, otherwise they will freeze to death in winter.
It wasn't until the first snow ushered in that the Tian family breathed a sigh of relief, Tian Zhancai called his three sons to him, and the whole family had a meal together.
At the dinner table, he suddenly opened his mouth and said to Tian Miao:
"Miao'er, what do you say our family will do in the future?"
Tian Miao, who was eating well, didn't expect that his grandfather would suddenly ask like this, and he was almost choked by the chicken paw in his hand, so he hurriedly swallowed it quickly and safely.
"Master, what do you mean? I kind of didn't get it. Tian Miao was a little embarrassed to say that when her family talks to her now, they can save it.
I'm smarter, but I don't have mind reading, so who can understand such a headless and brainless thing? When Tian Miao slandered, he didn't forget his stinky fart.
"I mean, our stall is quite large, but there is a lot of money invested in it, and I don't know what it will be like next year. I'm always a little weak in my heart, so I want you to tell us how to go this way in the future? Tian Zhancai was impulsive at first, but after more than half a year, he completely calmed down.
"We'll have some income next year, but not too much, because it will take at least a year and a half for pine wood to become a timber. However, as long as it is in the next year, our business will definitely be profitable, and the more we go forward, the better. Seeing him ask, Tian Miao immediately put down the chicken paws in his hand and explained seriously.
"How much silver does that cost? We've put in more than thirty taels. Tian Zhancai wrote down every sum of money, and he also had his own way of not knowing how to read.
"I know this, grandpa, you don't have to worry, I have a plan for this in my heart. It's just that I can't say it yet, Bai Yiran plans to do something with me, and he won't let me say more before it takes shape. Tian Miao didn't plan to talk about the agate in front of the whole family.
When Tian Zhancai heard her say this, he immediately thought of the matter of agate, so he changed the topic elsewhere.
"Several of you have your own craft, whether you can learn it or not, there is a way out. Do you think Da Zhuang has any good way to go? Tian Zhancai felt that Tian Dazhuang was a male baby, and he still had to have some talent.
"I want Da Zhuang to go out and learn the carpenter's trade, but I don't know what the second uncle and aunt think." Tian Miao's words made Tian Youyin and Wang stunned.
"Why do you have to learn carpenter?" Fu Shi was a little unhappy, carpentry is not a good craft.
"Our family runs a lumber storage yard, and there must always be someone in the family who knows what to do, or who knows what wood is good for? What's so important about this wood? Tian Miao really didn't want to pay attention to her, but she couldn't express herself.
"Miao Er is right, our family has to have someone who knows how to do it. And what about Vigor? Tian Zhancai recognized Tian Miao's ideas very much, and his granddaughter had a long-term vision.
"Energetic and careful, I think next year we will hire a bookkeeper and let him learn from him when the time comes. If we can learn it, our family has our own tent, and we can use it with confidence. Tian Miao's words made the Fu family and Tian Youyin's family very satisfied.
"Miao'er, you arranged it so well, what about our family?" The third aunt Zhao said, she doesn't want to leave her family behind, according to Tian Miao's arrangement, what else is going on with her family?
"Third aunt, Da Qiang is still young, I thought, when our conditions are good, he is not allowed to go to private school?" Tian Miao is really convinced, and the third aunt is also fighting for this? What can a five-year-old learn? Is it a carpenter or a settler?
"That's okay, it's decided, I'll go and inquire tomorrow to see where there is a good carpenter, and take Da Zhuang to apprentice." Tian Zhancai ended the topic.
Wang's mood is super happy today, looking at Tian Miao's eyes, he can pinch out the water, and Tian Miao has goosebumps, layer after layer.
Zhao's face is not so good-looking, how does she look at Tian Miao, how is it not pleasing to the eye.
Bai Yiran sat there motionless with an unkind face, Junko and Xizi didn't know what he was thinking, and in the end, it was Xizi who opened his mouth first, who was not afraid of death.
"Master, do we have to go back?"
"Shut up, don't you see what your master is thinking?" Junko didn't expect that Kiko would dare to speak.
"Isn't that what the master is thinking?" Kiko really doesn't understand, what is Junko afraid of? The three of them were ostensibly master servants.
In fact, the three of them are brothers who grew up together, and he doesn't believe it, and the master will treat him for him to ask.
"Since I'm sick, I'm naturally going back to visit." Bai Yiran's face was a little better than just now, but it was still a little blue.
"Master, she didn't have any good intentions this time, otherwise, I'd better go back by myself." Junko said worriedly.
"What? In your heart, am I so bad? This time, the two of us will go back, and Kiko will stay. After Bai Yiran finished speaking, he got up and left, not giving them a chance to speak at all.
