Chapter 49 Intentions
Eight cents a fritter, Zhou Wanwan counted two cents and four cents and put it on the counter, "Uncle, I'll buy three fritters." Behind the counter sat two middle-aged men, both wearing white coats with oil-stained twists, chatting energetically.
When the two heard the words, they looked up at the three brothers and sisters, and when they saw Zhou Wanwan, one of them with a big head immediately began to shout: "Whose child is this!" Why do you look so good! As he spoke, he shouted at the inside of the grain and oil seller: "Xu big ass, come out and take a look!" This kid is so good-looking! If you have such a girl in your family, your daughter-in-law can't chirp all day long and make your son divorce! β
Hearing the sound of a tall and strong middle-aged man walking out, with a beard on his face, his eyes as big as copper bells, and a little fierce momentum.
Seeing this person's big man and protruding big eyes, Zhou Wanwan was happy, this is an acquaintance - Xu Yidao, who sells meat in the township, was called Xu Da Fart before he didn't sell meat, his full name is Xu Da Ass, and he is Zhou Juan's future father-in-law.
The most enjoyable thing about this man is not the name, but the arduous and unremitting history of their family to have a son. To sum up, it is a single transmission of several generations, and each generation is restless in order to have a son. In the previous life, Zhou Juan gave birth to four daughters before giving birth to the only male grandson of their generation, and since then he has become a hero of the Xu family, walking sideways in the Xu family.
Of course, Xu Da Ass doesn't know that he will have to toss for more than ten years to see his grandson, and he is not so respectful of girls, so when he sees a little girl who is as beautiful as a doll, not only is he not afraid of him, but he also smiles at him, and he immediately likes it, and he reaches out and wants to hug him.
Zhou Yang had already prepared, and when Xu Da Ass stretched out his hand, he had already staggered two steps with Zhou Wanwan, and then turned around and walked out, "Xiao Er, I'll wait for you outside with Nannan, and you will go to us after you buy it." β
Zhou Wanwan was carried by Zhou Yang and walked out of the courtyard of the food station quickly, and there was a loud voice shouting behind him: "Whose child is this?" Who can raise such a smart little girl within a radius of dozens of miles? How can she know how to spend money at such a young age......
The brother and sister walked out of the courtyard of the food station and stood on the side street waiting for Zhou Chen. It was already past twelve o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time for lunch, but there was no one on the side street. The residential area of Yangshugou Township next to it is also quiet, there is no smoke rising, and there is no smell of food wafting out, in the past three years, everyone has long been accustomed to eating only two meals a day.
Zhou Chen quickly ran out, holding three fritters tied with fine hemp rope in his hands.
The three brothers and sisters all smiled when they looked at the fritters, and their faces were full of joy.
"Eat when you get out of town." Zhou Chen walked out of the town first, "Xu Da Fart didn't recognize us, and kept asking which tun we were, but I didn't tell him." He doesn't know us, and we don't need to know him. β
"It's okay, we don't ask him for anything, it's okay if you don't know him, if you know you, you want to hug you, and it's not good for us to go back." Zhou Yang heard that Zhou Chen was a little angry in his words, and immediately comforted him, "I don't have much chance to meet him, if you really come to our house, the eldest aunt will not let us come forward." β
Zhou Chen also felt that his brother was right, and quickly let go of Xu's big buttocks, and said that Zhou Wanwan would spend money, and he could also know that three fritters cost two cents and four cents. The people in the food station were so surprised, Zhou Chen was also surprised, Zhou Wanwan was the first time he saw money, how could he spend it?
"How do you know how much it costs to pay for three fritters?" Zhou Chen asked Zhou Wanwan with a smile, looking very proud of his sister's intelligence.
Zhou Wanwan scolded herself in her heart for being brainless, why did she forget that she had never seen money in this life? Why do you forget that you are just a little doll less than a year and a half years old? If you want your brothers to buy fritters, sell them cutely, cry and pretend to be pitiful, how can you achieve your goal, why are you lazy and take shortcuts? Well, now it's time to save effort to achieve the goal, but how can this be explained? No matter how smart a child is, he won't spend money without seeing it, right?
"The second brother took the money in exchange for sugar and a headband! I also want to take money to change fritters for my eldest brother and second brother! Zhou Wanwan could only pretend to be naΓ―ve, "Just take those few for them, don't give them more, we have to keep them for ourselves." β
The brothers laughed when they heard it, and they all came up to kiss and rub her, not doubting Zhou Wanwan's statement at all. Zhou Yang felt that his sister was too smart, and after watching it once, he knew that he could exchange money for things, and he was lucky, as soon as he took a quasi, "Our hands are really accurate, just grab a handful, and you can do anything well in the future!" β
"My brain is also good, and I know that we have to keep the rest of the money," Zhou Chen also looked at his sister everywhere, and everything was cute, "Nan, what are we doing with the rest of the money?" β
"Keep it for the second brother to go to school!" Zhou Wanwan said loudly, her voice is sweet and glutinous, and her speech has always been soft, this time it is rare to be crisp.
Zhou Chen's eyes turned red, hugged Zhou Wanwan over, and pressed her head against her head, "Second brother is no longer going to school, and we will keep the money for Nan Nan to go to school in the future, so that Nan Nan can go to college." β
Zhou Wanwan was infected by Zhou Chen's emotions, and choked up uncontrollably, "We will make more money in the future, enough for the second brother to go to school, and enough for the girl to go to school." β
"Xiao Er, let's sell fish a few times a year, it's enough for you and Nannan to go to school. You go to school, and you have a big brother at home. As he spoke, Zhou Yang's eyes were also red, and he was so choked that he could hardly speak, "Mom just wants us to go to school......
"I want to go too, but I really can't," Zhou Chen saw his eldest brother like this, and quickly wiped his tears and tried to calm himself down, "I went to school, and there were few people in the family to earn work, and the milk was so upset that I couldn't go." Seeing that Zhou Yang wanted to refute, Zhou Chen interrupted him, and continued: "Big brother, you can't carry it alone." My father and dad won't agree, they are most afraid that the milk will make a fuss, and the family will not be able to live a stop at that time, and they will not let me go for a while. The main thing is, I go to school, what about the tuition fee? We can't hide the fish from us, the milk must ask for the money, and we can't hide the fish in the loop. With such a toss, I can't go to school, and I can't save for tuition, so we can't do anything. β
"Sooner or later, there has to be such a show, now I'm afraid, when the girl goes to school, won't the milk have to make trouble? It's going to delay you then. Zhou Yang also has his own plans. After selling the fish today, and talking about selling it later, he thought about it, and when he had money, the first thing he did was to send Zhou Chen to school. This is his mother's greatest wish, and he can't let her close her eyes.
"I still have six or seven years to go to school! Are we still afraid of her making trouble then? Zhou Chen raised his chin, "When the time comes, we will grow up, who do we need to be afraid of?" β
"It's the eldest brother who is useless...... Zhou Yang also knows the current situation of the three brothers and sisters, in any respect, they can't beat the few adults of the Zhou family. As long as others want to, they can be suppressed at any time, and they have nothing to do with the simplest means of violence.
"How else can it be useful? Look at the whole tunzi, who earns second-class work at fourteen? Zhou Fu 16 is still third-class, and Zhou Jun 14 hasn't worked in the field yet! Zhou Chen didn't want his eldest brother to blame himself, let alone let him push himself like this, "Isn't it just bullying us without a mother?" Isn't it just bullying us when we're still young? Zhou Chen sneered, "Let's take a look when we grow up in a few years!" β
"I'll delay you in a few years!" Zhou Yang didn't think that when he grew up in a few years, the situation of their brother and sister would definitely be better, but his younger brother couldn't afford to wait.
"Big brother, don't worry! I just don't have to go to school, and I can live a good life! Seeing Zhou Yang's anxious appearance, Zhou Chen calmly analyzed him: "No one can say how many times we can sell fish, and it is not certain whether we can sell it again next year, we have to save more money while we can save money now, and we have to let everything else go, in case something goes wrong, it's useless to say anything." It doesn't matter if I go to school or not, we have to save enough money to go to school first. β
"If you have saved enough money, let the second brother go to school first, and then go to school." Zhou Wanwan answered next to her, she couldn't let Zhou Chen give up the idea of going to school, even if she couldn't go now, she had to remind him at any time.
"So what are you doing for big brother?" Zhou Chen saw Zhou Yang's lonely appearance, so he wanted to tease his sister and make his eldest brother happy.
"Marry a daughter-in-law for the eldest brother!" Zhou Wanwan hugged Zhou Yang's neck with a small arm, and put the soft and sweet little head on his shoulder.
Zhou Chen laughed out loud, and Zhou Yang's face turned red. Zhou Wanwan also laughed in his heart, he also wanted to divert the attention of the eldest brother, a young boy of this age is the most amusing age, and he blushes when he says that he will marry a daughter-in-law.
Zhou Chen saw that Zhou Yang was blushing so much, he thought it was very interesting, and then teased his sister: "Do you still know how to marry a daughter-in-law?" Who told you? β
"The fourth uncle is very happy to marry his daughter-in-law, and in the future, we will make money, marry a daughter-in-law for the eldest brother, and marry another one for the second brother!" Zhou Wanwan felt that only the eldest brother could be bullied, so she blinked her innocent eyes and dragged her second brother into the water.
Zhou Chen's face turned red when he heard this, and this time it was Zhou Yang's turn to laugh at him. Zhou Wanwan pretended to be a good baby in the arms of her eldest brother, looking at Zhou Chen's appearance in her heart, you said that you are only eleven years old this year, what do you know about marrying a daughter-in-law? What are you blushing for?
Being stirred up like this by Zhou Wanwan, the brothers were much better depressed because Zhou Chen couldn't go to school. The three of them walked outside the town, crossed the herringbone intersection, found a shady sand pile on the side of the road, and began to eat fritters.
The fritters are quite big, four pounds, in Zhou Wanwan's opinion, there is no comparison with the taste of fritters in later generations, but in the eyes of their three brothers and sisters, this is already a very rare delicacy.
Yes, Zhou Wanwan is also very hungry for fritters. Since the spring of this year, Zhou Wanwan, like her brothers, has only eaten energy supplements and has never eaten food in the space. Her brothers were hungry, and she was eating and drinking in the space herself, and she couldn't do anything like that.
Therefore, although the three siblings are now very healthy and do not lack any nutrients in their bodies, their stomachs are in a state of half-fullness every day. These three fritters are really attractive to them.
