Chapter 29: Family Meeting I
The younger brothers and sisters didn't speak, and Boss Bai no longer kept his head down, and looked at Ah Yuan in unison.
This family has lacked a hostess for a long time, and it is no wonder that he was willing to give up the family heirloom jewelry, and sold the land to marry a sister-in-law.
"You all like to express your thoughts boldly, that's good, family, if you hide it again, it's so boring." Ah Yuan pondered the words, his eyes swept over everyone's faces.
"We're a family, and we're working so hard to get everyone fed and warm, so no matter how different our opinions are, we have the same purpose, so what's there to argue about? We put our ideas on the table, and we analyze together, which one is the most suitable, and pick out the most suitable for our development, isn't it? Is it necessary to compare whose voice is louder and whose fists are ruthless to show who is right? In this way, in the future, whoever has something to say, the family will sit together to discuss it together, vote by a show of hands, and whichever method gets more votes in favor will be done according to whichever method. ”
The new sister-in-law in charge of the house put forward a suggestion, you look at me, I look at you, and I can accept it, but what is going on with this "show of hands"?
Ah Yuan made persistent efforts and smiled and said: "Now, we vote on Bai Chengyao's proposal and agree to raise our hands to save the money we have earned in the past two days. ”
She took the lead in raising her right hand, and her five fingers were together, which was the most regular movement during the study period.
Everyone thought it was interesting, except for Bai Er, who was holding his neck, Qi Shushu raised his right hand.
"1-2-3-4-5-6", Ah Yuan said: "Huh? The second brother didn't raise his hand, so how could there be 6 votes? ”
There are four brothers, one lotus, plus myself, that's right, a total of six people!
"Hee-hee-sister-in-law, it's Arwen who raised two hands!" Cailian's report was exposed, and sure enough, Xiao Awen hid beside Bai Laosan, holding up two short arms on the left and right.
This kid is a big ghost, and he has learned to cheat!
Ah Yuan rolled his eyes and continued to preside over the voting: "Now, those who agree with Bai Chengzong's opinion think that they can enjoy while earning money - if you want to eat first, please raise your hand." ”
Is Bai Lao Er really what the new sister-in-law said? That's right, if you can, who wouldn't want to eat a full meal and eat big white steamed buns first?
Ah Yuan raised his right hand as usual, and Boss Bai raised his hand exactly according to his daughter-in-law's intentions, plus the second brother Bai, there were three votes.
"1-2-3-, three votes to five, five votes to win!" Ah Yuan clapped his hands and made a decision: "The result of the discussion at this family meeting is that all the copper coins earned in the past two days will be saved, and as for how to eat and spend tomorrow, we will vote at the meeting tomorrow!" ”
This is a "show of hands"? Everybody gets it.
But why didn't the victorious side cheer?
The most tangled is Ah Wen, at his age, he is completely impulsive, he just wants to help the third brother defeat the second brother, but he forgets how much he wants to continue to eat white flour steamed buns, so many copper coins, spending some, it's not gluttonous, right?
Cai Lian was entangled in another question, staring at Ah Yuan for a long time, and then asked hesitantly: "Sister-in-law, what does that 'classmate' mean?" ”
That's right, weishenme should be called "Bai Chengyao" and "Bai Chengguang"? No one understands it!
"This-that-", Ah Yuan's face turned red: "That is to say, we are a family, we have to study together and make progress together, you are like learning how to make money, how to cook and make shoes-"
Finally finished talking, Ah Yuan hurriedly took a sip of fish ball soup to cover up.
Bai Laosan still understood best, and said in agreement: "The word sister-in-law is used well, and the same - learning-, isn't it learning together?" It's more appropriate than what we call 'classmates' in the school. ”
"haha-then my name is Bai Awen--sister, sister, you will be called Bai Cailian-", Xiao Awen kept practicing this new term as if he had found a new toy.
A meal, the food was very lively, and a grand first family meeting was organized in disguise, Ah Yuan continued to direct everyone to work together, clean up the table, dig the core for the hawthorn, and polish the bamboo sticks.
Then, questions followed.
The first: "Sister-in-law, if this apple is cut, won't it change color tomorrow?" Can you still eat that? ”
"Oh-hey, yes, yes, Ming'er cut again-"
The second: "Students, our sugar is not enough, and there are only a few roots left in the oil-"
What to do?
As a result of the resolution, the copper coins earned in these two days could not be spent.
Bai Lao'er's chin was raised arrogantly again, and his eyes squinted at Bai Laosan, that means, don't you want to save money? Save it, don't even buy the ingredients that Ming'er must use, how can you string the sugar gourd?
"Maybe, it's still raining tomorrow-", Bai Laosan's hot face was about to hang down under the table.
"It's going to rain tomorrow, don't we have to stay at home for a day and can't make money?" Cai Lian is worried, is it possible that after the family resolution, she must save that money to death, and she can't spend it if she is hungry?
Ah Yuan is very happy, Bai Lao Er, who has always refused to suffer, did not take advantage of the victory to chase and make fun of a few younger siblings, which is a good omen for a harmonious family!
"That's it, I still have the remaining money in my hand, Chengguang, it's getting late, you go to the grocery store in the village to buy some urgent things and come back!"
Boss Bai looked at his daughter-in-law with great admiration, why didn't he think of this solution? It doesn't affect daily life, and it doesn't violate the family's decision, how good!
"However, before the next decision, we must first think about what is best for our family, and then cast a precious vote - oh, a hand!" Ah Yuan took advantage of the situation, and now, even Xiao Ah Wen nodded frequently.
The family worked on the oil lamp, and when the white boss ran panting into the courtyard gate, the autumn rain fell down.
Put the clothes in, the work of the stove came to an end for the time being, and in this era it was completely dependent on the sky for food, and there was no need to expect to run in the rain on muddy dirt roads.
"Let's go to bed early, everybody!" Ah Yuan spoke: "If you want to take a bath, use the hot water in the pot, and if Ming'er doesn't stop raining, you don't need to get up early." ”
"Sister-in-law-", Bai Lao Er suddenly shouted and patted his head: "I forgot, the needle and awl you asked for, get it back!" ”
Sure enough, it was what I remembered, lying heavy and cold in the palm of my hand, a handle suitable for holding, and a few sharp long needles, but a needle nose was missing.
"Second brother Xiexie!" Ah Yuan smiled happily: "In the future, I will make shoes for everyone, so I don't have to work so hard." ”
"Sister-in-law, I think-", Bai Lao Er looked at the third child who still stayed in the stove room and refused to leave, and his mouth hesitated.
"What do you want to do? Just say it! Ah Yuan also looked at the younger brothers and sisters who were curious but embarrassed to get together: "The second brother is the smartest in business, so let everyone listen, and it will be better to see more knowledge." ”
Thank you Ya for the reward, thank you for the reward of the big baby Guoguo, yesterday was busy in the dark, and the number of words is pitiful, send these first, and I will work hard today.
