The lights in Su Xiangui's house were on, and the windows were open. I saw Sophie sitting on the edge of the kang, still wiping her tears.

Su Jinyao sighed secretly, feeling that Sophie (xìng) was too weak, and she was still crying, and she was not afraid of her father's bad heart. However, Su Fei'er was able to say those words to Wang Changliang today, which also made Su Jinyao feel that she had changed a little, and she was no longer the little girl who didn't want anything before and only fell into Wang Changliang's circle (tào).

Su Jinyao pushed Xiao Cheng'er and glanced at him, meaning to let him enter the house to persuade him, at least to divert the words first, so that Su Fei'er would stop crying. She turned back into the house and took out the two fur collars she had bought today.

Originally, I was going to make a surprise gift for Sophie and Xiaocheng'er, but now it seems that it is a thing to make Sophie happy. Anyway, you have to take Wang Changliang's matter over first, otherwise Sophie has a small heart and won't have to cry for a night.

Su Jinyao came back with the collar, and Xiaocheng'er was already persuading. However, he didn't let Sophie cry crookedly, but directly pretended to be stupid and asked Sophie, "Sister, why are you crying?" Is there anything going on at home when I pick up my second sister? Daddy's face is not good. ”

Su Xiangui saw Xiao Cheng'er ask like this, and was secretly glad that he didn't hear Wang Changliang's words, so he hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, your eldest sister burned her hands when she was cooking, so ask me to rub the ointment on him." Dad's hands were heavy, and when it hurt her, she kept crying. ”

"So that's the case, then I'll give the eldest sister a medicine." Xiao Cheng'er continued to play stupid, and walked over to pull Sophie's hand to check.

By this time, Sophie couldn't cry anymore. What's more, the words Wang Changliang said were not good, and her grievances could only be swallowed in her stomach, but she hoped that the fewer people who knew about it, the better. So Xiao Cheng'er came to take her hand to check, she quickly withdrew her hand and said, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt, this ointment is easy to use, it won't hurt when you rub it." ”

In order to prevent Xiao Cheng'er from asking any more questions, he quickly diverted the topic and said, "What about your second sister?" She also went out to look for you, didn't she meet? ”

"Yes, it was a fork in the past. Just got him back. Su Jinyao walked in while talking, stuffed the small bag wrapped in two fur collars into Su Fei'er's arms, and said, "Eldest sister, Xiaocheng'er, I'll bring you good things, take a look, like it or not." ”

Before Sophie's tears were dry, she was busy wiping her face with the back of her free hand, and then asked, "What's in here?" Touching the soft ones? ”

"Just open it and see it." Xiao Cheng'er was in a hurry, snatched the burden from Sophie's hand, grabbed it and put it on the kang to untie it, and was immediately shocked, and then shook out two collars, and said, "Second sister, this is what you bought for me and my eldest sister?" It's so beautiful. ”

Su Jinyao said: "Of course I bought it for you." The black mink one is for the small town, and the boy is more stable with this color. The silver fox is given to the eldest sister, and the long-haired collar girl looks good when she wears it. Sister, try it out. ”

After Su Jinyao finished speaking, Xiao Cheng'er shoved the silver fox's fence into Su Fei'er's hand, and surrounded the mink fence that was given to him. The small buckle is fastened, just around the neck, fluffy, black and oily, and it seems to be a lot richer all of a sudden.

Su Jinyao looked at Xiao Cheng'er and found that Xiao Cheng'er looked good. Now I don't go out to fetch firewood and don't need to be blown by the wind (rì), it's a lot whiter, and it looks even more handsome. It is estimated that in a few more years, he will also be a handsome little boy.

Sophie was not as anxious as Xiaocheng'er, she took the silver fox's collar in her hand and touched it again and again, the tears in her eyes were long gone, and her face was happy and surprised. After touching it for a while, he said, "Jinyao, this ...... Is such a beautiful bib really for me? ”

"Is there any fake? Isn't it good-looking to dislike the eldest sister? Then I'll go back and choose one for you. Su Jinyao actually understood that Su Fei'er definitely didn't like it, but she liked it too much to believe it. But she deliberately said the opposite, just to tease her.

Sophie hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no, how can you not like it." It's the first time I've touched something so good. My aunt of the Wu family seems to have a rabbit skin collar, and our third aunt also made a collar of the hare skin I gave her before, and took it out to show off a few days ago. Dongmei of the third aunt's family also said that her mother had worn it for her, and she also had a good leather goods. But I didn't expect that now I have such a good collar, this is, this is a fox skin, right? ”

Su Jinyao was also a little sad and moved when she saw Su Fei'er's cautious and unbelieving appearance. Didn't she integrate into this family just to make her family live a good life? If she had known that a fox collar would make Sophie and Little Town so happy, she should have bought it sooner.

Sophie also tied the collar of the fox fur, and the silky fur took advantage of her beautiful face, and her facial features, which were not very delicate, also looked three-dimensional. In the end, the Buddha wants gold clothes and people want clothes, just with an extra collar, it seems that Sophie and Xiaocheng are much richer.

Su Xiangui looked at the three children, and was full of joy and comfort. The previous unhappiness was also swept away, and it became an expectation for a good (rì) child.

Su Jinyao looked at the smile on her family's face, and her heart was really full of sweetness. However, she looked at Sophie and Su Xiangui's eyes quietly reddened, and hurriedly said, "Okay, don't look at it, it's time to eat." I'm hungry. ”

Hearing Su Jinyao say this, Su Fei'er's eyes immediately stopped red, turned red, lowered her head and whispered: "I just cried with my head stuffy, and I haven't cooked dinner yet." ”

Su Jinyao deliberately pursed her lips and said, "Look at it, I forgot to cook for you the beauty." Okay, I'll cook today, big sister, you can continue to stink. Xiaocheng'er, come, help the second sister light the fire, let's roll out the dough sheets and make noodle soup, it's fast and delicious. I also bought the pickled wild boar (ròu) today and stir-fried a plate of potato chips (ròu) for a while. ”

Xiao Cheng'er immediately agreed obediently, but he was reluctant to take off the collar around his neck, so he wore it and ran to the kitchen.

Su Jinyao smiled, and didn't stop it, anyway, it was bought for him, and if you like it, you can take it with you. Su Jinyao won't say anything good to keep, when to wear it, what to say that it must be a pity, not to wear it badly, and so on.

If all the good things are kept at the bottom of the box, then what are you going to buy them for? Just deposit the silver, and I'm not willing to take it out anyway. And since I bought it, I just want to wear it.

With Xiaocheng'er helping to light the fire, Su Jinyao quickly made the noodle soup. In between the fires, Xiaocheng'er also peeled the potatoes diligently.

Su Jinyao's knife skills are very good, and the potatoes are cut into slices, and then a piece of air-dried wild boar (ròu) is cut and fried with the potato slices. Put less oil, (ròu) slices are fragrant, and the potato slices are full of (ròu) flavor.

The simple but sumptuous meal was quickly served on the table, and Sophie blushed again and said in a low voice: "Jinyao, you cook so fragrantly and so quickly, the eldest sister can't catch up with you." ”

"Is it better to cook as a family? That's so tiring. Su Jinyao deliberately reached out and pinched Su Fei'er's face, and said with a smile: "Let's eat." Eldest sister, you just need to grow vegetables well, and when you become an expert in growing vegetables in the future, I still ask you to help me. ”

"Well, I know, what you told me Jinyao will definitely not be wrong, I must learn to grow vegetables well." Sophie was so well-behaved and obedient, but Su Jinyao didn't expect it.

The meal was enjoyed and the previous unpleasantness was swept away.

After the meal, Sophie and Xiaocheng'er went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks and wash the dishes. Su Jinyao said to Su Xiangui in his house: "Dad, I have already made up my mind about building a new house, and tomorrow she will start to go to Zhang Luo Masons and Materials." I went to Guyushu Town today and saw the official family's list text, the conditions of the small town can go to take the exam, but you also need to bring the household registration certificate in the village. I don't know what this certificate is, do we have it? Where do you want to do it? ”

Su Xiangui frowned after hearing this, and said, "The household registration certificate is logically owned by every family and every family. However, children must be born locally and have lived in the village for five years before they can enter the village's household registration, and if they do not do it when they are five years old, they will have to wait until they are ten years old. Only Sophie was born in the village, you and Cheng'er were born outside, and when your mother and I brought you back, you were already six years old, and Cheng'er was four years old, so you didn't go to the household registration. Fei'er also entered the household registration of our village when she was ten years old, and you should have gone to apply for household registration when you were ten years old, but it was delayed just in time for your mother to pass away. And Cheng'er is not yet ten years old, and it is not time to apply for household registration. ”

Su Jinyao also felt that this matter was difficult to do, it was nothing that she didn't have a household registration. After all, Yao'er used to be a stupid girl, and no one cared about this. She is not in a hurry to leave this house now, she can apply for household registration at any time. But the small town is going to take the exam in a few days, what can I do if I don't have a household registration certificate?

Su Jinyao asked again: "Then who do you want to go to with the household registration certificate?" ”

Su Xiangui said: "Just go to Xiaozhang Village to find Zhang Lizheng." He had a record of the population of the village. Although Xiaocheng'er is not yet ten years old and cannot apply for household registration, when your mother and I came back with you, we had already reported it. ”

Su Jinyao thought for a while and said, "That...... If I go to Zhang Lizheng and ask him to be accommodating, will I be okay? Let him give Xiaocheng'er a household registration certificate in advance, it's not a difficult task. ”

Su Xiangui is obviously an honest man, and he didn't understand what Su Jinyao said about "accommodating", so he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it won't work." This is the rule set by the government above, and it is not what Zhang Lizheng said. ”

Su Jinyao smiled and said, "Dad, I'll do this thing." I think there is an old saying (tǐng) that is good, which is enough to prove that the matter of household registration in a small town can be done. ”

"What's the old saying, can you still mention the small town?" Su Xiangui still didn't react, and asked puzzled.

Su Jinyao said directly: "As the old saying goes: money can make ghosts grind." ”

"Jinyao, ...... like this Will it work? Su Xiangui actually looked a little nervous, as if he had done something wrong.

Su Jinyao said: "Anyway, when our family builds a new house, we also need to find Zhang Li to stamp a seal on the deed, and I will do it together with Xiaocheng'er's household registration." ”

"Jin Yao, although Zhang Lizheng is only in charge of a few small villages, after all, he is the mayor of the town above and nodded in agreement, this Lizheng has been doing it for almost 20 years, and there has been no problem, I am afraid that you can stamp the deed; But it's hard to talk about the city's household registration. After Su Xiangui finished speaking, he sighed and said: "Actually, how can the children of poor families pay so much attention, they really can't go to school this year." Wait until Cheng'er turns 10 years old next year and issue a household registration certificate before going. ”

Su Jinyao patted the edge of the kang, jumped down from the kang and said, "It's okay, this matter is wrapped up in me (shēn)." Tomorrow morning, I will ride a horse to Xiaozhang Village to find Zhang Lizheng, go back quickly, and then go to Xiaoshuipu in time. ”

After speaking, Su Jinyao said: "Dad, it's not too early, you should rest early." I was also tired, so I went back to the house and went to sleep. ”

Su Xiangui nodded and said, "Okay, let's go, let's go." But when I thought of Jinyao, you have to get up early tomorrow to go to Xiaozhang Village, my father felt distressed. This home is all up to you. ”

"Dad, how can you hear this and see the outside. I am your daughter, Xiaocheng'er is my younger brother, and I am willing to contribute to this family. What's more, Xiaocheng'er is smart, and my sister has the ability to send him to the government-run school in the town, of course, I have to do it with my heart. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she waved at Su Xiangui and went back to her own room.

Today is equivalent to riding a horse for a whole day, and going out to find a small town, Su Jinyao also feels a little tired. When I went back to the house and lit the oil lamp, I saw a pair of silver earrings on the small table that she had bought before.

When it was first chosen, Su Jinyao felt that the two pairs of earrings were good, and there was nothing to be unhappy about letting Sophie pick first. She picked up the earrings and touched her ears again, and put them on. The small round ball swayed slightly in her ears, and she still thought (tǐng) was funny.

Su Jinyao went to fetch water, washed up briefly, and then took off her shoes and lay down on the kang. The oil lamp in the house was also extinguished, but it seemed to be asleep, and his ears listened to the movement outside.

About half an hour later, the whole village was quiet, and Su Jinyao heard a gentle tapping sound from the back window. She knew that it was Gu Xuebin who came.

Su Jinyao flipped (shēn) up, probed (shēn) to the kang to scoop up her shoes, and went back to open the back window. Then put the shoe on the foot (tào) and jump out of the window.

Gu Xuebin stood in the backyard, still holding an old branch in his hand. However, today's Gu Xuebin looks a little strange, he is wearing a very thick robe, even if it is not winter clothes, it is autumn clothes.

Su Jinyao was stunned for a moment, walked over and asked, "Why are you wearing such a thick one?" Is there something uncomfortable? Give me your hand and give you a pulse. ”

"It's okay, (tǐng) okay." Gu Xuebin actually took a step back, then took out a small cloth bag from his arms, threw it at Su Jinyao, and said, "Next." ”

"What is it?" Su Jinyao stretched out her hand and took it. I just feel that it is very light to start with, and the contents are not too big. But if you pinch it, it's still hard, like a pebble?

"Just open it and see. I'll go back first. After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he was in a hurry to turn (shēn) and leave.

Su Jinyao is strange, this guy is tired of not leaving every time he comes, what's wrong today? Moreover, he was wearing such a thick piece of clothing, and it seemed that there were several layers of it inside.

"Wait, what the hell is wrong with you?" Su Jinyao was curious and worried, and hurriedly chased after Gu Xuebin.

Gu Xuebin ran two steps forward again, and said anxiously: "I'm fine, Jinyao, don't come here, just stand there and say if you want to speak." I can hear. ”

"No, is there something wrong with you today?" Su Jinyao felt even more strange. But today when she went to look for Xiaocheng'er, she met Daddy Gao, and Daddy Gao didn't say anything about Gu Xuebin's discomfort.

"It's okay, it's really okay. I came out without telling my uncle, so I have to go back as soon as possible. After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he took two steps back.

Su Jinyao knew that the more he chased, the more he would definitely have to go, and the suo (xìng) would not move forward. He just asked, "Then I'm strange, you only have one chuáng in your cabin, and your uncle said that he usually lays on the floor." Since you are resting in the same room, how could he not know that you ran out in the middle of the night? ”

Gu Xuebin said: "He will go out to practice at night, and it will take more than an hour to practice, and at this time, I will come out to breathe." ”

Su Jinyao held up the small bag that Gu Xuebin gave her and said, "Then what exactly is this you gave me?" Don't be in a hurry to leave, you don't want to see it, I like what you sent or not. ”

"Well, then you can see now." Gu Xuebin really stood still, looking at Su Jinyao with a nervous expression.

"Hmph, don't get closer. How can you throw something to a girl? You should be a hydrangea. Su Jinyao deliberately pursed her lips, looking angry, and turned half (shēn) around, deliberately not looking at Gu Xuebin.

Su Jinyao has never really sprinkled (jiāo), so she doesn't know if it's the right thing to do, but she always feels that it might work.

Sure enough, Gu Xuebin became even more nervous, stood in place and thought about it before moving towards Su Jinyao. Then he said, "Jinyao, look at it." Next time I send something, I promise not to throw it away. Today...... Not really. ”

"Can't do it? What not? I didn't let you stay overnight, so what else did you say? Man, you can't say you can't do it, you have to say that you are very good. Su Jinyao actually directly teased Gu Xuebin, and her words were full of "dirt" with a capital letter.

Gu Xuebin had never been molested by a girl, and he didn't react for a while. When his mind turned around and he understood what Su Jinyao meant, his handsome face turned red as soon as he "Teng", and he glared at Su Jinyao and said, "Girls, how can you say these nonsense." ”

"I said, 'What's wrong?' If you have the ability, you can come and beat me. Su Jinyao shook the small cloth bag in her hand, deliberately angry with Gu Xuebin.

Gu Xuebin was adamant, but he refused to take a step closer. And he also pretended to be angry and said: "If you don't dismantle it, forget it, the thing will be given to you, and if you don't like it, throw it away." I'm leaving. ”
