Chapter 36 Everything is not easy

Wang glared at his daughter and smiled helplessly, "Red dates, don't pay attention to her, come and sit." ”

Tian Qingan shook his head, "Fourth aunt, let's not sit anymore, Pea and I want to go out for a walk, can we let Sister Meibao together?" ”

Tian Meibao immediately looked at Wang, "Mother~~~"

Wang glanced at Tian Meibao with disgust, "Okay, go ahead, remember not to cause trouble, take care of your younger brothers and sisters." ”

Tian Meibao immediately threw down the cloth and needlework, smiled on her face, and ran away with Tian Qingan and Pea, as if there was a big monster chasing behind, "Got it, got it...... Red dates, peas, go, go, I'll take you to a fun place! ”

When she got out of the east room, Tian Meibao breathed a long sigh of relief, took out a handful of pine nuts from her pocket and handed it over, "It's suffocating!" ”

Tian Qingan smiled, "I think the flowers you embroidered are very beautiful." ”

"Hey, don't mention it, I didn't force it out from my mother!" Tian Meibao shook her hand and showed Tian Qingan her fingers, several needle eyes, "I don't like embroidery, I keep my head down all day, tired my neck, tired eyes, and piercing my hands...... Forget it, don't talk about this, where do you want to play, or don't go up the mountain to pick fruits, there are a lot of sweet fruits on the mountain at this time, I can't say that you can still meet hares and pheasants, but go to my eldest brother first, you can't do it without him, I heard that there are wolves in the depths of the mountains! ”

Tian Meibao is like a sparrow out of the cage, chirping, excited, pointing to the exceptionally neat field next to him and said: "You see, this is the land of the three masters, they have many families, just three acres of land, all planted sweet potatoes, so it is not enough to eat, but my mother said that their family will live, they have five pigs, fifty chickens, the family has to go up the mountain to cut grass and feed the pigs every day before dawn, the hard work is hard, but the income is more, much better than farming." ”

Tian Qingan nodded approvingly, "The three great masters are indeed quite smart, we have little land in our village, so we have to develop elsewhere, otherwise we will definitely go hungry...... But I don't see many livestock in the village? ”

Tian Meibao said: "Well, other people's families are not like the three great masters, not to mention, their family is the ancestral craft, can be raised, unlike our family, and there are many people in the village, it's not that they are not greedy, it's not that they haven't followed the trend, but they died more than half, and they didn't make any money and lost money, and it was thankless...... Since then, everyone has put their minds to it, it is better to go out to work, how safe this job is! ”

Tian Qingan remembered what his father had said, and asked: "I heard that there are a lot of carpenters in our village, why is no one doing carpentry, this business should be quite profitable, just make a barrel, a basin or something and sell it in the market." ”

Tian Meibao shook her head, "I heard my mother say that the craftsmanship is not good, just like my father, I made a foot basin for my family a few years ago, but it still leaks and can't be used!" My mother said that other people are even worse, they haven't learned well, and if they don't pull the ballast, they might as well go to the market to buy it. ”

"The third uncle's carpentry skills are very good, my father said, the third uncle was photographed by the master at a glance, and said that the third uncle was very flexible."

Tian Qingan nodded and said proudly: "Of course, my father is very powerful, he can do anything, and he can carve tweed, but it looks good!" ”

Tian Meibao was envious, "I can't even embroider well, and I have to carve on wood, which is really amazing!" ”

Tian Qing'an said: "You can also become very powerful, as long as you are patient, embroider every day, and embroider seriously, when others look at you again in a few years, they will also think you are powerful...... My father didn't know how to carve flowers at first, but he also learned later, every day he carved with a knife, his hands were cut by the knife, and his tired hands couldn't lift up to eat, slowly, he carved beautiful flowers, but it was still far from the real master. ”
