When these two children were children, they always took a bath in a large wooden basin, which was washed by Wu or Qian Manxia, and Cheng Yue started it. Qian Yixiu didn't see anything unusual in her stupidity, and as soon as Qian Yijin learned to speak, she pointed to her sister and asked, "Why doesn't my sister have a chicken/chicken?" ”

The little aunt Qian Manxia blushed shyly, pursed her lips and was embarrassed to answer.

Cheng Yue, the little lady, explained very smartly, "Jinwa has a handle, and there are chickens/chickens." Embroidery without handles, no chicks/chickens. ”

Wu smiled, "Yue'er is right. ”

Qian Yijin nodded ignorantly, as if he understood the difference between men and women. When he was three years old, when he saw his sister inadvertently glancing at him, he covered it and said, "You can't look here, you have to have a needle's eye." ”

The stupid little Qian Yixiu turned her gaze, she was afraid of a long needle. That little Zhengtai is not afraid of long needle eyes, staring at others and looking hard.

Qian Yixiu on the side was so angry, like a little kid who saw her. How can there be such a searchlight, only to visit others and not allow others to visit him.

Even the Wu family felt that his own granddaughter was too stupid, and turned Qian Yijin's head in a different direction with a smile. After that, they washed the two separately.

In the past few years, Wu has become a village woman with a lot of strength, and she is no longer the weak and crying woman she used to be.

Miss Qian Manxia is not only a good worker at home and abroad, but also shoulders the responsibilities of a preschool teacher.

Although Qian Sangui is still weak, he is much better than a few years ago, at least he doesn't need to lie in bed all day in winter, he doesn't need to buy tonic medicine to hang his life, and he can make some straw mats and straw baskets to make a little money.

The little lady is still so stupid, pure, and beautiful, but her little chin is pointed down again. In addition to the excellent breastfeeding work of the child before the age of one, there is also a remarkable needlework, and she is responsible for the sewing and mending at home. In addition to these two things, she couldn't do any work well, she couldn't sweep the floor cleanly, her clothes couldn't be washed clean, and she broke a few dishes and plates, and Wu didn't even want to let her into the kitchen.

However, the two children were still taken to sleep by the little mother. When the child was young, Wu slept here, and when the child reached the age of two, he went back to his house. originally wanted Qian Manxia to help bring one, but Cheng Yue was unwilling, and she cried when she heard that the child was going to be removed.

Last year, the other rooms of the Qian family were also separated, because Qian Sigui was going to the provincial capital to start a business, and he didn't have much money in his hands. Old man Qian presided over the division of the family, and Qian Sigui bet all his net worth into it. Old man Qian is an adventurer, although he doesn't have the ability to fight outside, he is very supportive of his son's outing. For this reason, he also followed his son to the provincial capital, saying that he was helping them to help them or come up with an idea.

Mrs. Qian did not follow the old man to the provincial capital. One is because the living cost in the provincial capital is too high, and I can't help when I go and I have to pay an extra bite to eat. Another reason is that she is reluctant to Qian Yijin, this great-grandson is too likable, and she is afraid that she will starve him if she leaves.

Qian Yixiu felt that these two old people were not like the patriarchs of the feudal society, but more like the old people who broke their hearts for their children in their previous lives. Although Mrs. Qian is very patriarchal and often scolds her little mother, Qian Yixiu still respects her from the bottom of her heart.

That afternoon, the family smiled with satisfaction when they saw the two strings of money on the table. Every year after harvesting winter wheat, the Wu family will take the rest to the town to sell except for a few catties for Qian Sangui to open a small stove.

There have been no major natural disasters in recent years, although there have been occasional small droughts or rains and floods, and the impact on the harvest has not been too great.

The corn and sweet potatoes grown in the summer are not worth much, and they can't even sell the rest for the usual money except for their own food. There is no one at home to make embroidery or go out to work, and the straw hats or straw mats woven by Qian Sangui are sold for dozens of dollars a year. Coupled with the two or three hundred wen for selling dates, the entire annual income of this family is basically four dollars next to the side.

This is also because Qian Manjiang went to join the army, and his family did not pay taxes, otherwise it would be less.

But the distraction is big.

Because in the early two years, Wu was busy taking care of children and sick people, and he asked for short-term workers to help with farm work. Before the child is one year old, give Cheng Yue milk to replenish his body, and eat more meat and eggs. Qian Yixiu, like Qian Sangui, is not in good health, often takes medicine, and occasionally the two of them have to open a small stove. Since "getting the money of the Wu family", the pension money of the old man and his family has also begun to be given. Repairing houses, buying salt, oil, seeds, etc., the daily expenses are really not low. Therefore, not only is there nothing left to spend on the money spent on selling grain every year, but even only one silver cake is spent.

However, a few years ago, it was rumored that the war in the north was almost over, and it was said that the Dajin Kingdom rebelled against the king, and the Dajin army had no intention of fighting, so it was defeated and retreated by the Daqian army.

If this rumor is true, then Qian Manjiang will come back soon. As long as he returns, there is hope for this family again. What's more, Qian Sangui and Qian Manxia both thought that Qian Manjiang would definitely be an official or something, and their family would be an official at that time.

Qian Yixiu in the corner is also very excited, she has long regarded herself as a member of the Qian family, and shares joys and sorrows with them. She thought happily, how else could there be such a thing as an endless road, seeing that this family was about to make ends meet, and the strong labor force was about to return.

Besides, she also misses the handsome little daddy very much, after the baptism of war, the little daddy should be more heroic and extraordinary, right?

Now, she no longer counts when she will cross every day, because if she crosses, it means that Xiao Xiu'er will burp. She felt very sorry for this weak and beautiful little girl, although the little girl was slow to react and weak, and was often scolded as a "debt collector" by Mrs. Qian.

At this time, hearing the sound of someone knocking on the door, Wu hurriedly took the money into the bedroom and put it away, and Qian Yijin, who went to open the door, took Qian Manchuan's hand and walked in.

Qian Manchuan is in his twenties, and he looks honest and shrewd. With irrepressible joy on his face, he said loudly before he entered the door, "Third uncle, third aunt, Brother Manjiang is still alive, and he will be back soon." ”

Qian Sangui was so happy that he stood up from his chair, and Wu stepped forward to pull Qian Manchuan and asked anxiously, "Manjiang is still alive?" How do you know? Let's be more careful. ”

Qian Manchuan said, "Just now my father met my uncle (Wang Lizheng) who came back from the county, and the uncle said that the war was over, and the obituary also came. Of the 30 people who went to fight in our village, 22 died, and there were no Manjiang brothers among these people. ”

They all ignored the twenty-two who died. As long as Qian Manjiang is not among these people, he belongs to the eight people who are still alive. The family wept with joy.

The family spent more than three months in joy and hope, and the survivors of the war finally returned to their hometowns. But only seven people came back, and Qian Manjiang was missing.

According to the seven men, Qian Manjiang was the fastest promoted among the recruits. In the first year, he became a flag commander, in the second year, he became a captain of the eighth rank, and in the fourth year, he was promoted to the seventh rank of the cavalry captain. And he is very appreciated by the peak, saying that he is brave and resourceful, and his future is limitless.

It's just that in the last big battle, Qian Manjiang's battalion was ambushed by the enemy, and most of the casualties were killed. But for some reason, after the end of the war, neither Qian Manjiang's living person nor his body was found, but he disappeared.
