Apprentice
The days are tense and busy.,Slipped by quietly.,I promised my brother to let him go to the school.,Now for the family's livelihood, my brother and cousin have been fishing for the family for more than three months.。 In order to consider the long-term of the family in the future, Yu Xin decided to send her cousins to school, at first she decided to go to the village, but the master in the village was an old Xiucai who had not been admitted to the examination for many years, for the sake of long-term planning and development, Yu Xin decided to send the two to study in a private school in the town. Although the private school in the town is not very good, it is a hall where the old man sits. Although the tuition fee is a bit expensive, it costs 10 taels per person. But there are still a lot of people who go.
"Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, father, mother, brother, cousin, cousin, I have something to discuss with you today." After the family finished dinner that day, Yuxin beckoned the family to discuss things.
"Grandson, what do you have to do, say it, we must support what we can do." Old man Ma said happily.
"I'm just saying that now our family is stable. Isn't it time for us to discuss my brother and cousin's private school? ”
"Hey, it's time to go to private school. The dolls are also older now, and it will be even later if they are not enlightened. ”
"Dad, if this Dabao and Rui Xi go to a private school, who will catch this fish and send this goods."
"Master, if you don't let my cousin go to study, I'll go fishing and make deliveries."
"Grandpa, I'll go fishing and deliver, and my cousin will go to school."
"Brother, cousin, you all go to study, I have a way to solve the family matter." As soon as Yu Xin finished speaking, the family all looked at her suspiciously.
"If our family wants to develop, we can't keep the old vision, and in the future, our family's land will only increase, let us do everything by ourselves, and we must not be tired to death." So we're going to get someone to do it. After saying so much, Yu Xin felt thirsty, took a sip of water and continued.
"From the day after tomorrow, Dad, you go to two honest and reliable families with poor conditions, let them go fishing, and we will charge six wen per catty of fish. Two hundred pounds a day. A hundred pounds for a family. There are small fish, small shrimp, long snakes (eels), and loaches, but they can't be expensive, and they can only be given at most two cents and a catty. What do you guys think? ”
"I think okay, we have to learn to hire people, otherwise our family business is big, and we can't do it even if we are really tired. It's really more than worth the loss to do it on our own. Ma Yuzhu said with emotion.
"That's good, mother, you and your aunt will use the silk sent by Zhao Mingxuan to pick two horses with good colors to make a few clothes, and they will be easy to wear when they go to the private school. Ask me if I don't understand something. Yu Xin handed the picture of her backpack that she had drawn two days ago to her mother.
"Yo, Yuxin, your painted bag is so beautiful. This has to be done, and I believe the effect is better. My aunt walked into my mother's side and looked at the drawings and said.
"Here, show it to me, well, that's good. It's easy and easy to carry on your back. The point is surprise. ”
The family circulated the drawings and expressed their satisfaction with the bag. Especially the elder brother and cousin, when they saw the drawings, their eyes lit up and they looked very excited. At the same time, I am also vaguely full of expectations for the future life of private school.
"Another thing, the people in my cousin's family look honest and kind. People are also benevolent and righteous, this time our family suffered, if it weren't for the Shagenberg family, we would definitely have to suffer some hardships, and their family was also in trouble at that time. They are the ones who send charcoal in the snow. This kind of talent is what our family should use now, of course, rich and charming. In the future, we family members will have to know in our own hearts. ”
"Cousin, you said so much, what do you mean?" The anxious cousin spoke up.
"Why are you in a hurry to listen to your cousin, you will rob it before you finish speaking, one is rude, and the other is that you have the ability to say one thing to your cousin in such a clear manner. You're so anxious, what can you accomplish in the future? Ma Youcai reprimanded his grandson.
"Grandpa, don't talk about cousin, am I too?? Aluminum forgiveness! Sheltering the sundial and looking forward to it? What is it? p>
"That's right, I plan to let Brother Qingfu go to private school with my buddies. It's not from our village, it's a private school in the town where the old man sits in the hall. ”
"Granddaughter, the private school in this town costs dozens of taels a year. If you can't read it in the village, you just need to be able to recognize a few words. Grandma said with a painful face, this family can't save two taels of silver a year, and if you attack three scholars at once, you will get thirty taels, and one of them is someone else's? This is a great kindness, and it does not need to be given ten taels of silver a year.
"You are really a man with long hair and short knowledge, can this silver be white? In the future, a few babies will be promoted after taking the show exam, and they will become officials, and these will not all come back," the old man said grandma.
Grandma was a little overwhelmed by what her grandfather said.
"Grandpa, you can't misunderstand my grandma so much, my grandma, isn't it for this family?"
"That's it, that's it." The rest of the family chimed in.
"Mother, we know that you are for our good. But Yuxin is right, in the future, my uncle and I will develop. We have to win people's hearts now and pave the way for the future. You don't want me and Uncle Wa to stay in the house all day long. ”
As soon as grandma heard her father's words, she stopped talking. His face softened a little.
"That's the case, please Brother Fu is clever and lively, if you can study in the future, our family will also have an extra backer, if you can't study, if you can learn something in the future. After participating in the family business, I can also be a small shopkeeper. This is also a return of gratitude. Besides, let's ask Brother Fu to study, Uncle Cousin will definitely be grateful to us, and when the time comes, their family will be desperate to help us do the work. ”
"It's still our little granddaughter who thinks thoughtfully and thinks far, since there are so many benefits, let's do so, anyway, our family is not short of that amount of money now."
"Then good father, you go and discuss with your cousin tomorrow, and let Brother Qingfu and his eldest brother go to study together."
"Uncle, if you go back this time, go to the village to inquire if there is a master in the place where we went on a wild trip last time, and if there is no owner, we will find a way to buy it. And you look at the fish pond in your village. If the situation allows, we will buy it too. As for the money, you don't care, I'll figure it out. ”
"Yuxin, what are you buying so much land for? The land was wasteland, and no food could be grown. Isn't it a waste of money to buy it? ”
"Mother, you just have to do what your cousin tells us, and we have discussed it. I'll tell you more about it later. This time, I didn't wait for Yuxin to talk, and my cousin Yingchun preemptively said it.
"Hehe, you look at a few children still carrying us, mysterious. Looks like I'm really old. "Grandpa said it with emotion.
The next day, the old man went to find the second cousin Liu Xiagen, and it was the same as Yu Xin's prediction. The cousin's family objected at first. Later, my father was going to ask their family to help with things, so he solved the matter of Qingfu Ge's school in the gratitude of his cousin's family.
Dad asked his uncle to call his aunt to his house and his mother, and his aunt sat together with the clothes and schoolbags of the three of them going to school.
Yu Xin went to the town to see the operation of Yipinxuan, and at the same time told the shopkeeper Feng about her brother's private school.
The next day, the little brother wore the silk caftan made by the girls yesterday and went to the private school in the town with their respective parents and families, met the husband, and handed it over for repair. Because he was just enlightened, he enrolled in a junior class.
After a few children registered, the family invited Mr. Feng, who was accompanied by the shopkeeper Feng to have a meal at Yipinxuan, and asked Mr. to take care of a few newly enrolled students during the banquet.
