Chapter 69

Sophie hurriedly went over and opened the baggage, and saw that there were several pieces of variegated cloth inside. However, two of them are quite bright in color, and they are good to touch. picked it up and said, "Jinyao, are these two pieces of cloth for me?" ”

"It's yours, I won't want to be so flamboyant, like a flower and a butterfly. I don't know what your daughters think, it's good to be plain. Xiao Cheng'er didn't wait for Su Jinyao to speak, he spoke first.

Su Jinyao smiled, knocked on the door of Xiao Cheng'er's head, and then said, "Eldest sister, if it is really not cost-effective to buy the finished materials, my money is not enough." So I picked a few pieces of variegated cloth. But it's all big, and the ingredients are good. I have also helped you compare these two pieces of fabric, the purple one can be used as a small jacket, although it is still about a foot less, but the collar and sleeve edges can be made up with that pink piece of fabric. And the pink one can just be made into a Confucian skirt, and it has more than a foot more, isn't it on the upper body? The set of dresses that come out of this way, with a purple jacket on the upper body with a pink collar and sleeves, is the same color as the skirt below, which is exactly a set. ”

In fact, when buying these two pieces of material, Su Jinyao specially asked Wu Guihua, she said that this was enough, and she also pointed to Su Jinyao The finished dress made of cloth in her store, which is so color-matched, it is indeed a set, which is very good-looking.

Hearing Su Jinyao say this, Su Fei'er was also very happy. Holding the material on his body and gesturing, he smiled all over his face.

After comparing for a while, Su Fei'er blushed and said to Su Jinyao: "Jinyao, today's incident is indeed the eldest sister's mistake." The eldest sister is not good, she shouldn't quarrel with you. Brother Wu Niu and Dad are right, I should let you. ”

Su Jinyao was not a scheming person, otherwise she would not have taken the initiative to find Su Fei'er. But now it is very comfortable to get a word of apology from Sophie.

Su Jinyao walked over and pulled Sophie's hand, and said with a smile: "They all said that they are family members and sisters, why do you say that." After speaking, Su Jinyao deliberately raised her face and said, "However, if you make such indiscriminate fuss in the future, I will directly twist your arm and ask you to beg for mercy." ”

"Okay." Sophie nodded hurriedly and said, "I know that I was wrong, and I won't do it again in the future." Jinyao, you are so good, you went out without eating breakfast, and you still remembered to buy me fabrics and come back. ”

"Cut, you're so coaxing, the two pieces of fabric are compromised." Although Su Jinyao said this, she was really comfortable in her heart.

"Well, I'm just coaxing. I'm a man who never holds grudges. Sophie muttered, and then said, "It's not too early, do you want to clean up and go to bed, or do you have something else to do?" Tell me, let's sleep together after we're done together. ”

Su Jinyao thought for a while and said, "There is indeed still work, but there is not much that must be done today." Eldest sister, I brought back a lot of curtains and tablecloths, you can wash them tomorrow. It's late tonight, and I can't see clearly, so forget it. I'm going to process the bones and meat of the pig, otherwise it won't be fresh overnight. Cheng'er, will you wash the pig's intestine? Come and help. ”

Sophie asked, "So, my job is to do it tomorrow?" ”

"Well, tomorrow the eldest sister will be tired. Xiaocheng'er and I have to go to the third aunt's house tomorrow. Su Jinyao hasn't forgotten that she "owes" the third aunt's family a hundred yuan.

When Sophie heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched, but she didn't dare to say words of comfort, for fear that Su Jinyao would talk about her again, so she simply kept silent and went back to the house with the fabric.

Xiao Cheng'er saw that Sophie was gone, came over and took Su Jinyao's hand and said, "Second sister, are you not angry?" ”

"I wasn't too angry in the first place." Su Jinyao thought about it and felt that she was also a little childish. If according to his previous character, he would either slaughter Sophie as soon as he raised his hand, or treat her as air and ignore her completely, so why bother to maintain it so much.

However, Su Jinyao didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her current personality and changes. At least she felt like she had crossed over once, lived again. I found the girl's time that was missing, and the joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness that should have been all recovered.

Such a self is better than a ruthless killer. She has a family, and she will also have awkward and tantrums with her sisters. But it's good to have fought, this is the life that Su Jinyao longs for, but she has never been able to get.

Seeing Su Jinyao pursing her lips and smiling, Xiao Cheng'er sighed, pretending to be old-fashioned and said, "Alas, you two sisters have reconciled, the eldest sister can go to sleep, but I have to wash the pig's intestines." Pig intestine, pig intestine, you wait for me. ”

After saying that, Xiao Cheng'er had already run into the kitchen.

Su Jinyao couldn't help but chuckle when she listened to Xiaocheng'er's complaint, which was not a complaint. He followed him into the kitchen.

Su Jinyao soaked the pork bones in cold water, washed and cut the minced pork, and then put them in a clean basin and rested them on the ground next to the water tank. The side of the tank is relatively cool, so that the pork will not spoil overnight. It's just right to do it tomorrow.

Xiaocheng'er squatted by the basin to wash the pig's intestine with "complaints". But although he complained, Xiaocheng'er still washed very seriously. Wash it twice with alkaline water, and then use chopsticks to turn out the large intestine of the pig and then wash it with alkaline water. Then I rinsed it twice with clean water before it was really clean.

Su Jinyao said with a smile: "My small town is really capable. In the future, a girl from any family will marry you, but you will be blessed. ”

"Cut, I'm still young, what are you talking about marrying a daughter-in-law. Even if she marries, my daughter-in-law can't be an ordinary person, it's too mediocre, let alone in the town, even if it's a girl in the city, I can't look down on it. Xiao Cheng'er said this, and his expression was even more vivid in imitation of Su Jinyao's imitation.

When Su Jinyao heard this, she "giggled", pushed Xiaocheng'er, and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, dare to love the two of us sisters talking in the house, but you can hear a word." ”

"Well, I listened. Why, you don't know what to do, and you're not allowed to listen to it. Xiao Cheng'er said as she shaved her face.

Su Jinyao smiled and grabbed a small rice spoon and called it over, and the two sisters and brothers laughed and made trouble in the kitchen for a while before stopping.

Su Jinyao said: "Don't make a fuss, it's so late, the eldest sister and father are asleep." Stop arguing with them. ”

Xiao Cheng'er stuck out his tongue, also looking playful, and then washed his hands and prepared to go back to the house.

Su Jinyao and Xiao Cheng'er walked out of the kitchen door and walked separately, Xiao Cheng'er suddenly stopped Su Jinyao and said, "Second sister, let's go to the third aunt's house tomorrow, don't be angry." ”

"Why?" Su Jinyao was stunned and turned around to look at Xiao Cheng'er. She didn't believe that Xiaocheng could be as weak as Sophie. But listening to Xiao Cheng'er say this, there must be a reason for him.

Xiao Cheng'er glanced at his father's house and said, "Dad said before that the third aunt's house ...... No, it should be said that the third uncle's family is also the Su family, and the family is still surnamed Liu, which is really noisy and not good-looking. But I think that now that our family is living a better life, I don't want my second sister to be distracted and angry with them. If they provoke them, I will help the second sister beat them away. If they stay honest, we can just focus on making money, why bother to meet these villains who can't see the good of others. ”

Listening to Xiao Cheng'er's words, Su Jinyao took a deep breath. walked over and hugged Xiaocheng'er in his arms.

Su Jinyao touched Xiao Cheng'er's head and said, "Xiao Cheng'er, you really surprised the second sister. The fact that you can think of this level shows that your mind is very long-term. You're right, there's no need to be familiar with them, we're doing well, and we'll make those who love to chew their tongues look at it in their eyes and gluttonous in their hearts. It's more uncomfortable for them than arguing with them and fighting. ”

After a pause, Su Jinyao said again: "However, this time the second sister took you to the third aunt's house to get them back because they owed you." Don't worry, the second sister doesn't have the heart to be angry with this kind of person, just to teach them some lessons. It also makes the people of the entire Pingshan Village have a little memory, so that they have a spectrum in their hearts, and don't come to our Su family in the future. ”

"Okay, get back what you owe us." After Xiao Cheng'er finished speaking, he reached out and hugged Su Jinyao's waist, then pushed Su Jinyao away, and said with a red face: "Second sister, I have grown up too, don't keep hugging me." ”

"Cut, a little big baby, and said that he grew up?" Su Jinyao smiled and teased Xiaocheng'er. But he said: "My small town has indeed grown up, so don't squeeze in the same room with my eldest sister." Look back and clean up the little barn next door to me, and you can move in. ”

"Second sister, you are really bad-hearted. The rats in your house are the ones running from the barn. If you let me live in it, then I won't let the rats eat it." After Xiao Cheng'er finished speaking, he turned around and ran into the house. Before closing the door, I didn't forget to make a grimace at Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao shook her head and smiled, and also went back to her room.

She was so tired today that she didn't boil water to take a shower. When Xiaocheng'er washed the pig's intestine just now, she had already fetched water to wash it. Now that she was lying on the bed with her shoes and socks and coat, Su Jinyao looked at the window blocked by her torn clothes and the adobe wall, and couldn't help but think that she should build a new house for her family as soon as possible.

After all, the small town is also big, and he can't always be crowded with Sophie. Although this house is their home, the tiles on their heads sound every time the wind blows, and the window lattices are also letting in the wind. If it rains or snows, it's really hard to bear.

Su Jinyao made up her mind even more, she wanted to make more money and quickly build a new house. lest the family have to endure the wind and rain in the future.

I thought about it a lot, and I fell asleep when I thought about it. Su Jinyao slept soundly and deeply, as if she was so tired that she fainted directly.

But when I woke up in the morning, I was really refreshed. It seems that this labor and exercise also have the same effect, both can strengthen the body and help sleep.

Su Jinyao put on her clothes, shoes and socks, and went out while holding her hair. Xiaocheng'er is still the hardest worker, still squatting on the ground in the yard to practice writing. Sophie estimated that she was already preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Su Jinyao walked over, squatted down and took the branch he used as a pen to write from Xiao Cheng'er's hand, and wrote on the ground the words "table, chair, bowl, chopsticks, sweeping, sprinkling, lifting, carrying", and then taught Xiao Cheng'er the stroke order and precautions for pronunciation and writing.

Because the words taught by Su Jinyao are all related to daily life, it is not difficult to remember. After only teaching it once, Xiaocheng'er remembered it all.

Because of the fast learning, Xiao Cheng'er begged: "Second sister, if you know a lot of words, teach me a few more, and only teach these words for a few days, are you afraid that I won't be able to learn them?" Or do you know these words? ”

"Stinky boy, dare you doubt me?" Su Jinyao glared at Xiao Cheng'er, but she also felt that Xiao Cheng'er was really smart. And his own teachings are indeed too slow. simply said: "Have you heard the three characters?" ”

"Second sister, will you?" Xiao Cheng'er's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Of course it will." Then I'll teach you the previous paragraph first, and you memorize it seriously. I'll teach you to write when I'm familiar with it, and I'll take it apart and test it one by one. Wait until you can memorize the first paragraph and write every word, and then I will teach you the next paragraph. If you learn fast, you will teach quickly. If you are slow learners, don't doubt your second sister's knowledge. ”

"Okay, okay, second sister, you can teach it. I promise to learn very quickly. "Xiao Cheng'er's face is even happier than yesterday's meat.

Su Jinyao slowly said: "At the beginning of people, nature is good. Sex is similar, Xi is far away. If you don't teach, sex is migration. The way of teaching is to be specialized. ”

While reciting, Su Jinyao wrote these few sentences on the ground, wrote them, and told Xiaocheng'er the meaning of each sentence.

Xiaocheng'er squatted beside Su Jinyao, watched, listened, and memorized carefully, and when Su Jinyao finished speaking, she looked down at the words on the ground and pondered for a while, and pointed to the word "Gou" that "Gou does not teach" and said: "Second sister, this word is definitely not the dog of the big yellow dog and the big black dog, right?" What does that mean exactly? Why are the same names but different words? ”

"This 'Gou' here means if. The profundity of Chinese characters is here, many words have the same pronunciation, but different words have different meanings, and the same word has different meanings in different places. Su Jinyao patiently explained to Xiaocheng'er a little bit.

Su Fei'er came out with a basin of water, and saw that Su Jinyao and Xiao Cheng'er were squatting on the ground to read and write, and said with a smile: "What kind of dog and dog are you talking about in the morning?" If you know how to write in a small town, you can learn to write about these dogs and cats, why don't you learn to keep accounts? If you grow up, you can also go to the town to do an apprenticeship and learn to keep accounts. How profitable is that? ”

"Who says an apprentice is another job?" Xiao Cheng'er glanced at Sophie and said, "I heard that scholars can go to the government-run school, and they can also be a master or something in the future. ”

"Flutter" Su Jinyao also smiled when she heard this, pushed Xiao Cheng'er's shoulder and said, "You don't see that this is much better than the account room." If you have a chance, you should go to the exam and come back after being a champion, then you will be the real glory of the ancestors. ”

"Champion in the exam?" Su Fei'er pursed her lips and said, "That's the glory of the ancestors, but not to mention our Pingshan Village, there are not even a few talents in the nearby towns, let alone going to the top exam." The small town has a chance, and it is good to be able to go to the capital. ”

"Test, I want to test." Xiao Cheng'er stood up abruptly and said to Sophie, "Eldest sister, why do you say that about your brother?" Could it be that going to the capital is considered a scenery? I'm going to come back with a top spot just like the second sister said. ”

"Okay, ambitious, second sister approves." Su Jinyao gave Xiaocheng'er a thumbs up.

"Wow" Su Xiangui pushed open the window leaning against the courtyard in the house, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" In the morning, I heard my family shouting to take the top prize? It's really out of luck. It's good to have such ambition, and my father agrees with it. ”

"Eldest sister, listen to it, even my father agrees." Xiao Cheng'er suddenly straightened his little waist, shaking his little brain melon, which was really like doing knowledge.

Sophie snorted and said, "Kaobei, how good it is to be admitted, I will still be the eldest sister of the official master in the future." Finally climbed into an official family. ”

"Eldest sister, so you just thought about this." Xiao Cheng'er sighed again, feeling that the eldest sister didn't seem to think differently from him at all.

"Alright, don't carry it. If it doesn't work, you have to take the test. Now you can't read all the words, don't blame the eldest sister for not believing you. Su Jinyao pushed Xiaocheng'er and said, "Go to the kitchen and help your eldest sister." I'll talk to my father, isn't there anything else to do after eating? ”

Xiao Cheng'er naturally understood what Su Jinyao meant by "something", so he agreed and pulled Su Fei'er into the kitchen.

Su Jinyao watched Xiaocheng'er and Sophie enter the kitchen, then walked to the window and called "Dad".

"Jinyao, come in and talk." Su Xiangui also understood what Su Jinyao was going to say, so he closed the window casually and waited for Su Jinyao to enter the house.

Su Jinyao walked in, poured a glass of water for Su Xiangui first, then sat on the edge of the kang and asked, "Dad, I'll take Xiaocheng'er to the third aunt's house in a while, I want to ask what you mean." ”

Su Xiangui looked at Su Jinyao, bit his lip, and then said, "Jinyao, although your third aunt is a well-known spicy person in Pingshan Village, she is married to our Su family after all, and she is also a member of our Su family." Dad still said the same thing: you can't write two 'willows' in one stroke. ”

Hearing Su Xiangui say this, Su Jinyao secretly twisted her eyebrows, but she didn't show it, she just nodded and got up and said, "That's okay, I understand what my father means." ”

"Jinyao......" Su Xiangui hurriedly stopped Su Jinyao again and said, "Dad's words haven't been finished yet, don't be in a hurry to leave." ”

Su Jinyao listened, sat back again, looked at Su Xiangui with a pair of eyes, and didn't know what else he had to say. But if Su Xiangui still wanted to persuade something, she didn't plan to listen to it.

Su Xiangui pursed his lips again, and then said to Su Jinyao: "If Dad hasn't finished speaking, he can only say it to you."
