205, the farmer's mother raised eight sons 129

"At the beginning of people, nature is good, sex is similar, and Xi is far away......"

Because his sons had never read a book, Ye Bing enlightened him in advance with the three-character scripture, so that everyone else was beating the baby and scolding his daughter-in-law, but their family came from the sound of reading.

Even the big girl listens to it a lot at home, and she can memorize it word for word, which is not only in the spare time of burning wood and cooking rice in the stove room, but also has words in her mouth.

"Big girl, you also like to study?" Ye Bing, who accidentally discovered this scene, asked casually while taking something.

"Auntie, I'm not, I don't, I ......" As if she had done something bad and was discovered, the big girl replied with her head down and very uneasy.

"Like is like, why hide it." Ye Bing obviously frowned slightly at her lying, expressing some dissatisfaction.

"Auntie, I was wrong, I do like to study, but don't worry, I only eavesdrop after I finish my housework." The big girl who made a big mistake obviously doesn't dare to be as arrogant as before now, and she can change her mistake on the spot, and she will definitely not delay it until later.

"Since you like to read, then wait for you to finish your housework every day, and then study with them in the future." After all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law in the future, and it is good to be able to read two words, and she doesn't have to be like those ignorant rural women and children, except for being a long-tongued woman, she has no pursuit.

Zhao is a prime example, because of her literacy and hyphenation, the villagers look up to her.

"Auntie, can I really do it?" Reading is a future that the poor don't dare to want, let alone a girl's study.

"Just do the housework well." Ye Bing directly gave a very positive answer.

"Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely be able to do a good job at home." In order to read and write, it is obvious that the big girl is also out of the way.

The time to study flies quickly, and the day of the New Year is coming in a blink of an eye, and now you have to prepare some New Year's goods.

Due to the large number of things to buy, this time Ye Bing took his second son to the county seat.

"Mother, the butcher said that every household has more or less ordered some pork for the New Year, and now there is no goods if you want to buy it." Zhu Chonger carried a basket on his back and squeezed out of the crowded pork stall with great difficulty.

"Then go to a few other places?" The lard at home has bottomed out, and if you don't boil it out, you won't have to eat it.

"I've already asked, and so are the others." Zhu Chonger hurriedly stopped and said.

The ancients attached great importance to the New Year from the bones, and naturally even the poorest people had to buy two taels of meat back, not only for a tooth sacrifice, but also to sacrifice to the ancestors, hoping that they would bless their descendants with peace and security, etc.

But now it is true that he can't buy pork, Ye Bing didn't continue to dwell on this issue, and directly said on the spot, "Then let's not buy pork, let's directly slaughter two chickens, one stewed soup and one fried." ”

"Listen to my mother." Zhu Chonger has always been the main responsible person for the chickens at home, not only the meat that is raised, but also very healthy.

New Year's goods, natural melon seeds, candy and the like are indispensable, and the couplet Fu word has to be bought and pasted on the door, and there is a dish that must be served.

I have to wear new clothes for the New Year, thinking that next year's sons will be good at studying, and naturally the clothes must be decent, otherwise Mr. will not accept a beggar's appearance, so I went to the cloth shop to buy a few elegant cloths, which are not expensive and have the appearance of a scholar.

Thinking that a few children had not yet eaten pastries or other snacks, I went to buy another box of pastries, plus three roast ducks.

When I passed by the jewelry store, I remembered that the big girl was going to wear a hairpin next year, so I spent 10 taels of silver to buy a delicately carved silver hairpin.

After the things were almost bought, Ye Bing took Chonger home.
