Chapter 15 Communication
Cailian's cry suddenly woke up Ah Yuan, who was out of the world, looked at her little sister with a panicked face, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This is a habit developed in the previous life, when you are under pressure, your hands and feet must be constantly busy in order to barely control your emotions, and at the same time, you must repeatedly think about what to do in your head.
fell into the eyes of the little girl, and I thought she was very angry, so she would do her work without saying a word.
"Cai Lian is not crying, my sister-in-law is not angry, my sister-in-law is making shoes for Ah Wen-" Ah Yuan stopped what he was doing and wiped the little girl's tears.
"Can Cai Lian help my sister-in-law make shoes? Cai Lian also learned it yesterday. Originally, she was not very close to this sister-in-law, but after today's experience, the sister-in-law was so brave to leave Awen, the little girl felt that this sister-in-law could be trusted, so she followed behind Ah Yuan like a tail.
It's rare for such a child to ask for work, Ah Yuan nodded: "Then you help your sister-in-law to stretch the edges, do you know how to use needles and threads?" β
"Yes, I've seen how to stretch the edges, the clothes of the brothers at home are torn, and I will also make up for it." The little girl burst into tears and laughed, carefully grabbed an upper, looked at each other for a moment, and then quickly began to explore.
"I said, how come the family is quite complete with needlework? Dare to be affectionate, our little Cailian is still a skillful little girl. Ah Yuan watched her fingers flip dexterously, let go of her heart, and habitually praised her mouth.
In the orphanage, when I see the progress of my little brothers and sisters, I always have to praise them at any time, which is the rule set by the director.
The two sisters-in-law sat affectionately on the edge of the kang and walked the needle, and in the yard, Boss Bai finally sorted out his thoughts, made up his mind, and straightened up and walked to the stove room.
The third child and Ah Wen continued to follow in silence, helping to cook on the fire.
In the cauldron, a layer of freshly dug sweet potatoes was steamed, and at present, only this thing was the most abundant.
"Awen, go and call your sister-in-law to dinner." Boss Bai smelled the sweet smell of steamed sweet potatoes and waved his hand to arrange the little brother.
The first to get into the stove room was Bai Lao Er.
Hungry for a morning, if it weren't for the depressing atmosphere, he would have jumped high to find food.
Then, it was Xiao Awen and Cailian, who were drooping their heads, reporting the movements in the main room: "My sister-in-law said that she was not hungry and asked us to eat first." β
"Sister-in-law--make me shoes-"
Little Awen is like a sinner, desperately trying to control the tears and pimples, sister-in-law doesn't really want to starve and suffer, just to keep herself at home, right?
The family quieted down, and even Bai Er, who had already grabbed a sweet potato in advance and gnawed more than half of it, stopped without taste.
The eyes of the younger brothers and sisters all fell on Boss Bai.
What kind of charter is it, how to treat the new members of this family, and how to operate it himself, and the warmth and thoughtfulness of others can't really warm that disappointed heart.
"You -- eat first, I'll -- go and see." Bai Chengguang's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance walked to the door of the stove room, turned back, took a sea bowl, and packed a few sweet potatoes with uniform faces before rushing to the execution ground and walking towards the main room.
A few small ones peeped around the door of the stove room, watching their eldest brother stand and stand in front of the door of the main house, stretch out his hand, put it down, and reach out to push the door.
He himself pondered that his daughter-in-law was dissatisfied with herself, and she was angry if she didn't eat!
Ah Yuan felt that Boss Bai's big body was standing behind him, the sweetness of sweet potatoes was also coming, and the empty city plan in his stomach was also singing.
But so what? Haven't we tasted the taste of starvation, what are you afraid of it?
Her hands and feet didn't stop, the two uppers had begun to take shape, and the soles of the shoes were stretched up, waiting to be put up.
Boss Bai hasn't learned to pay for it yet, standing left and hiding in front of Ah Yuan, sweat beads are dripping down, and he still hasn't found the right words to say.
"That-daughter-in-law-", before the words fell, the big needle in Ah Yuan's hand pierced the front door, shining brightly, and shocked the white boss.
Making shoes, the most arduous job is to take the soles of shoes, the Bai family does not have a thimble on the fingers, let alone a needle and an awl to do the work, Ah Yuan's hand strength is not enough, this work, finally encountered resistance, in the case of almost piercing the finger, had to stop.
"Whew-", Ah Yuan sat down and let out a long breath.
Boss Bai, who had been scratching his ears and cheeks, found an opportunity, hurriedly approached him, bent over, and pulled a smile: "Daughter-in-law, can you eat some sweet potatoes first?" Those shoes, let's not panicβ"
"Yes, you naturally don't panic, you have shoes on your feet-", Ah Yuan finally spoke, and as soon as he spoke, he poked his heart.
Boss Bai smiled bitterly and looked at his own pair of big feet: "My shoes were originally worn by our father, if it weren't for marriage, I wouldn't be willing to wear them, the second and third are also leftovers, usually we are all barefoot, only Cailian, is a female baby, my eldest aunt made shoes, sent half a bag of food-"
Ah Yuan's nose was sour, and he knew in his heart that he was telling the truth, the shoes of his brothers were all badly broken, only the shoes on Cailian's feet were still intact and fresh.
"But--this doesn't mean that you have the right to send your children out, Bai Chengguang, you use your brains to think about it, if you, just to be able to eat one more bite of food, wear an extra pair of shoes, and be sent to someone else's house to change your name and surname, are you willing?"
The problem came back, in the final analysis, Ah Yuan couldn't accept the reality that the family abandoned the child, even if there were thousands of good reasons, she couldn't accept it.
In fact, when hunger is raging, sending children to homes where they can have food and clothing is not a way to treat children well, but it is a pity that I met Ah Yuan, which is resolutely unworkable.
Boss Bai's eyes were filled with tears again, and his big palm covered an upper, and he promised in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, don't worry, I will never have this heart in the future, I have to raise this family well, make more efforts, and let them all eat enough-"
Ah Yuan's tears were provoked again, and he hurriedly lowered his head, and his voice was also low: "And me, let's think about it more, and life will be better-"
This is the difference between the thinking of educated people and uneducated people, Boss Bai wants to sell more strength, and Ah Yuan is thinking about using his brain to make a fortune.
But isn't the combination of the two the most perfect and promising approach?
Seeing that his daughter-in-law's anger had subsided a lot, Boss Bai hurriedly presented the sweet potatoes that were still warm, peeled off the skin, and handed them to Ah Yuan's mouth: "We have to eat a full meal first before we can have strength, and I think-"
"You're not stupid!" Ah Yuan glanced at the man, recalled his performance yesterday, and decided to spare him this time for the time being.
"Let's talk about it first, you have to discuss everything in the family in the future before you can make a decision."
"That's natural, Awen's matter is decided before getting married, and it can't be counted. Daughter-in-law, you have a clear mind, and you can turn faster than me, and I will listen to you in the future. Boss Bai regained his honest smile, and he took the initiative to give up the idea of being the master of the house.
This man has to be counted as a good man, Ah Yuan also grinned: "This is what you said, how to arrange this family in the future, what work to do, how to do it, you have to listen to me, if anyone is disobedient, you have to suppress it for me!" β
The husband and wife communicated their thoughts, and in a harmonious atmosphere, they wrapped a large bowl of sweet potatoes, and the newly appointed housekeeper Po Ayuan knocked on her head with a solemn face: "Chengguang, you call your younger brothers and sisters, I want to have a family meeting." β
Thank you for the long comment of the cat who loves the rain, thank you for the reward of the ghost Nara, and be lonely!
