Chapter 12: Night Talk
After a busy day's work, everyone was also very tired, and after eating, Li Qingshan didn't let them go back to rest immediately, saying, "Don't leave yet, I'll tell you something." ”
"What's the matter, Dad." Li Anfu asked.
"In this way, I thought about it with your mother, we have a job to make money, and we can't forget your sister Jixiang, I want to tell her that let the two of them also dig medicinal herbs, and your sister's family is also very sad, so we want to let your brothers help her."
"We're all right." The brothers replied together. Although my sister (sister) is married, she is still the daughter of the Li family, and she should help her, her family is living a good life, and they are comfortable to watch, so they don't have to worry about her all day long.
"Those daughters-in-law, do you have any opinions, it's okay, you can raise your opinions." As a mother-in-law, Niu asked, afraid that several daughters-in-law would have opinions in their hearts.
"Mother, we have no opinion."
The Hu family, the Li family, and the Zhou family all wanted to speak and stopped, and they were entangled in whether to say it or not.
"If you have something, just say it, our family is not an unreasonable family, the eldest daughter-in-law, you can say it!" The patriarch Li Qingshan looked at them and asked them to tell the reason.
"Dad, that's the case, we all thought, can we tell our mother's family about this method, they are also very difficult, I know that this is not right, I shouldn't move things to my mother's house, but in the past, our life was difficult, and my mother's brothers didn't help less, so I thought"
"What do I think, it turned out to be this, I was negligent, we should tell my in-laws, the eldest and second daughter-in-law, your mother's family is close, take the time to go over and say it, but let them keep it secret, as for the third daughter-in-law, your home is in the north of the town, relatively far away, tomorrow I will let the third child go with you and talk about it." Li Qingshan made a decision.
"No need Dad, I'll go by myself tomorrow, let the head of the house work at home, our family can't be left behind, I'll be back tomorrow when I say there, try not to delay the work." Zhou hurriedly said. This father-in-law agreed to tell his mother's family how to make money, and he couldn't miss the family's work because of this. If you leave someone else's house, you have to hold it tightly if you have a way, how can you tell others casually.
"Dad, it's not too late now, I'll go to my mother's house to say it, so as to save me the effort of delaying tomorrow." Li couldn't wait to say, in fact, another reason is to say a little earlier, tomorrow the mother's brother will be able to dig, dig early and earn a day early.
"Okay, let the second child accompany you, it will be dark in a while." Li Qingshan was a little worried, although most of the people in the village were good, they couldn't avoid a few black sheep.
"Then let's go, don't worry, Dad." Li Anlu said.
"Well, a few of you are also dispersed, tomorrow's notice should be notified, boss, you also go and tell your sister, by the way, go to your uncle's house and call Ruyi back, I have also lived there for so many days, I have been busy at home recently, let her come back to help, and then tell your uncles to dig up medicinal herbs too," Li Qingshan said.
Niu's maiden home is far away, there are twenty or thirty miles, it is not easy to go once, the last time the bull market returned to his mother's house, the two brothers like their nieces more, plus the retention of the younger siblings, let Ruyi live this time it is time to take her back, and he and Niu's also miss their old daughter.
"Got it, Dad, let's go."
Li Anfu and Hu led a few children into their rooms, and Hu said, "Daddy, tomorrow you go to pick up Ruyi, and I will go back to my parents' house to tell the eldest brother and the second brother." "Hu's maiden home is in Hujia Village next door, and it will be a short walk away. And it doesn't delay.
"Mother, I'm going too, I haven't seen my grandpa for many days, I miss them." Li Hui had the impression in her mind that her grandfather loved her very much, and every time she had something good, she had to keep it, and only took it out for them to eat when their grandchildren went, which reminded her of her grandparents in her previous life, but she never had the opportunity to honor them again, and she couldn't help but want to be close to her grandparents in this life.
"Okay, I'll take you." Hu thought that his father and mother probably also missed their granddaughter, so they agreed.
"Dad, we are finally going to live a good life, and it won't be long before we don't have to worry about food or clothing, and I feel motivated when I think about it."
"Hey, marrying me has made you suffer, and you haven't enjoyed happiness for so many years, don't worry, I will let you live a good life."
"Daddy, and us, my son must get ahead, so that my father and mother can enjoy Qingfu." Li Yujin clenched his fists and said, the conditions in the family have not been good since he was a child, although the family is harmonious, but there are inevitably people who watch jokes behind their backs and laugh at them for having no interest in the whole family, and they are still crowded in a broken yard for so many years, and they can't even flip the thatched house, at this moment, Li Yujin made up his mind to get ahead.
"Well, Daddy and Mom are waiting, Daddy and Mom have no ability, you see how many families there are in the village, the children are the same age as you, everyone has been to school for a few years, you brothers have never been there, this time we make money, I will send you two to school, that is, you are not young, you want to study with seven or eight year old dolls, I am afraid that someone will laugh at you." Li Anfu said to the brothers. After all, reading and writing is a very expensive thing, he didn't have the ability before, but now he has the opportunity, he doesn't want his children to be like himself, he can't read a single word, and he is afraid of being deceived if he signs a paperwork. Besides, even if you can't get famous, you can find a job or something.
Li Yujin and Li Yuqian were stunned when they heard it, this was simply too surprising, they didn't dare to think about it before, but they reacted after a while, and hurriedly replied: "Dad, we are not afraid." We must study hard and earn a life for our mother when the time comes. ”
"That's great, brother, when you learn to read, come back and teach me, I also want to read and write, you have to study hard, I'm still waiting." Li Hui interjected that modern highly educated people really can't stand being illiterate.
"Don't worry, the eldest brother and the second brother must study hard, or I will teach you how to teach you, little sister, do you want to be a female showman." The two of them couldn't help but tease Li Hui.
"You guys are underestimating me too much, when the time comes, let's compete to see who learns faster." Li Hui raised her chin and looked unwilling to admit defeat.
"Look at this, my mother will be the referee for you, and see who can win." Hu was also very happy and couldn't help but interject.
"Okay, mother, you show us, you can't be partial." Li Hui said anxiously.
"Don't worry, no, let your father supervise, okay, hurry up and go to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow."
"Okay, big brother and second brother, let's sleep, and my father and mother should go to bed early."
Li Anfu and Hu Shi went inside, and after packing up their ropes, they lay on the bed, whispering between the two.
Khan, after writing so much, I remembered that there was a sister-in-law Ruyi, who forgot to call her out for so many days, and came out today to bubble.
