Chapter Forty-Six: Little Land and Many People
Tian Dazhuang smiled and listened to what they said.
"Uncle, take it, it's not anything expensive, it's bought in the dim sum shop in the town, yam osmanthus cake, it is said that the elderly eat it well, these candies are not for you, they are for your nephews and nieces, and these teas, you have worked hard all your life, and you have never eaten anything good, let's also taste the taste of tea drunk by people in the city, this brown sugar, it also replenishes the body of the children in the family, look at the thin, dry face, I feel distressed when I look at it as an uncle." Tian Dazhuang touched the head of the child next to him, his face showed sadness, he was still too poor, otherwise who would be reluctant to give the child good food and clothing.
"That's it, your subordinates, Da Zhuang rarely comes back once, this is what he deserves." Chen Qiao'e smiled and distributed the things to the daughters-in-law at home, and advised, "Remember to give it to the children, don't save it." ”
Hearing these words, the daughters-in-law were very grateful, but they still subconsciously looked at their parents.
Uncle Zhang, Uncle Li, and the fifth uncle took the lead and nodded, "Take it, this is his uncle's intention for the children, dog baby, aquatic, Eryu, you have to remember your uncle's goodness, you know?" ”
"Got it." A few little dolls shook their fingers, their eyes were withdrawn from their mothers with difficulty, and they shouted in unison, and then said to Tian Dazhuang, "Thank you, uncle!" ”
"By the way, Uncle Zhang, these children go to school, I heard that these nearby villages have jointly established a school?"
"The big ones are on the ground, and the small ones will have to take two years, what if you don't do it, it's just such a big palm, and you can't support it!" Uncle Zhang knocked his pipe on the wall, "It's not as good as Qingdou can learn, these children just go to play, they can read a few words, and they will be satisfied if they can find a job to support their families when they go out in the future." ”
"Uncle is right, there are indeed many ways to live outside, but everyone has to know how to read, can count, and when he learns to read, Uncle can let him learn to learn arithmetic, and become a bookkeeper in the future." After Tian Dazhuang finished speaking, he looked at Tian Qingyang.
Tian Qingyang nodded, "Grandpa Zhang, what my father said is right, do you know the exchange meeting in Tong County?" ”
"Got it, what's wrong?" Grandpa Zhang asked, "I heard that it was very lively, but it was played by nobles, and a ticket cost one or two silver, so we can't get in!" ”
Tian Qingyang said, "Yes, this exchange meeting is held every three years, and every time businessmen from all over the country participate, they gather in Tong County...... If the dog baby and the aquatic student learn to count, so many businessmen, are they still afraid that they will not be able to find a job? ”
Grandpa Zhang's eyes lit up, and he patted Tian Qingyang's shoulder vigorously, "Sure enough, the baby who has studied is smart, and the exchange meeting has been going on for so many years, and grandpa has never thought of this!" ”
Tian Qingyang grinned, "Actually, it's not just Mr. Butto, the venue of the exchange meeting has to be renovated every time, like Uncle Zhang and Uncle Li can go over to work, and Aunt Zhang and Aunt Li can also find a job cooking, right?" ”
Not only Grandpa Zhang, Grandpa Li, and Grandpa Wu, but also several uncles and aunts in the family also came around.
"Will this work?" Uncle Wu family, people look a little shrewd and think a lot, "I haven't thought about it in previous years, but I heard that people don't want casual workers." ”
"It's easier!" Tian Dazhuang squeezed his son away, this kid is too capable of talking, look at his uncles, all staring at this kid without blinking, he can't be compared to a father.
