Chapter 57: I don't want to be a burden to you
Jiang Baoqing walked up to Jiang Yunshan and knelt down, his thin little face raised slightly: "Sir, my brother is all for me." As you can see, my brother and sister have just moved from my second grandfather's house to the original yard, and my brother just didn't worry about me, so he stayed at home for a few more days, not intentionally giving up his studies. Now that the matter is over, my brother will return to the county school tomorrow. ”
Jiang Yunshan objected to Jiang Baoqing's words for the first time. He knelt down, his body was straight, and he looked at Jiang Baoqing beside him very disapprovingly: "No, I'm leaving, you live outside alone, what can I do?" ”
Jiang Baoqing also straightened up and looked at Jiang Yunshan, and said seriously: "Brother, for us, the most dangerous place is the second grandfather's house. Now that he has moved out of his second grandfather's house, it can't be worse...... Once the fence and wooden door here are repaired, it is much safer than the Jiang family's side. She pointed to the neighboring yard that was being renovated a few feet away, "The abandoned house over there is also going to be occupied, and I am not alone living here." When the time comes, raise a small earth dog and let it go out to watch the home at night. Jiang Baoqing paused, his expression solemn, "Brother, I know that you have big ambitions in your chest, and I don't want to be a burden to you." ”
Jiang Yunshan's eyes were sour by Jiang Baoqing's last words, and he almost burst into tears: "Baoqing, how can you be a burden to me?" ”
You are the warmest place in my heart......
Jiang Baoqing smiled brightly at Jiang Yunshan: "Then, brother, you believe me, I will live here very well alone." Don't worry about me, you can study with peace of mind. ”
Jiang Yunshan didn't know why, looking at his sister's smiling face, but he burst into tears, as if he had made up his mind.
He wiped his face with his sleeve, and kowtowed three times to Wu Xiucai: "Sir, can I still go back to the county to study?" ”
Wu Xiucai had a straight face, and flicked his long sleeves: "Is the county school a place where you can leave when you say you can go, and come when you say so?" If you don't have a strong mind, it is difficult to achieve great things. ”
Jiang Yunshan was a little ashamed and fell to the ground: "Mr. is taught." ”
Wu Xiucai's serious face showed a smile: "Write a review tomorrow and hand it to me, and you will definitely not be such a child's play in the future!" ”
Jiang Yunshan was in a trance, his face was full of surprise, and he responded again and again: "Yes, yes, the student respectfully obeys Mr.'s teachings!" ”
Jiang Baoqing also gave Wu Xiucai a big gift: "Thank you, sir!" ”
Wu Xiucai hired a mule cart from the county's first carriage and horse dealership, and the mule cart was still waiting at the village gate. After Jiang Yunshan's affairs were done, Wu Xiucai politely refused Jiang Yunshan and Jiang Baoqing's brothers and sisters to keep food, only saying that there was still something in the county school, and Jiang Yunshan could return to school as soon as possible, which made him happier than any delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Jiang Yunshan was so ashamed that he almost couldn't raise his head.
After sending Wu Xiucai away, Sun Dahu touched his head, and said to Jiang Yunshan a little naively: "Yunshan, I won't say anything else, anyway, you can rest assured to study, these ten miles and eight villages will also have a capable scholar like you, but you have to take advantage of the opportunity...... Don't worry about Baoqing's girl, we also grew up together, I, I will help take care of Baoqing's girl. ”
After saying the last sentence, Sun Dahu's face turned a little red, but his complexion was a little dark, but he couldn't see any clues.
Jiang Yunshan was moved, and said several words of thank you, Brother Big Tiger.
With the river mud transported back from the river, Sun Dahu was full of energy, Jiang Yunshan helped to lay a hand, and the stove was quickly repaired, because it still needed to be dried for a few days, and it could not be used at the moment.
But it's nothing, it's all babies that grow up in the mountains, dig a pit in the ground, put up a wooden shelf, and use it to boil water and cook porridge.
The three of them gathered around the fire rack and ate a pot of porridge hotly.
Sun Dahu felt that this was the best meal he had ever eaten in so many years.
……
Before dawn on the second day, Jiang Baoqing woke up.
Although I slept on the haystack, I felt much more at ease than I slept on the clay kang before.
It's just that as soon as Jiang Baoqing sat up, Jiang Yunshan, who was sleeping in the haystack on the ground, woke up and sat up straight, and turned his head to look in Jiang Baoqing's direction with some sleepy eyes, and muttered in a daze: "Baoqing? ”
Jiang Baoqing responded, while picking up a handful of weeds from his hair.
Jiang Yunshan patted his face and quickly sobered himself up. He got up from the ground and looked out the window, and it was probably the end of the hour, not yet the end of the hour.
"I have to go to Big Tiger." After Jiang Baoqing cleaned the grass on his body, he helped Jiang Yunshan choose the weeds on his body, "Today happens to be the market, brother, you go to the county school, I will go to the market to buy something." ”
The things that could be removed in their old yard have basically been moved away a long time ago, and there are really a lot of daily sundries that need to be bought.
This is something they agreed on yesterday. Jiang Yunshan responded.
Jiang Baoqing still has three taels or four coins of broken silver, plus more than a hundred copper plates, in Sanliwo, this money can be called a huge amount of money, more than enough to buy some daily sundries.
Jiang Yunshan went out to fetch water, and when he came back, he saw that the door of the house was closed, a little strange, and shouted: "Baoqing? ”
"Yes." Jiang Baoqing answered and walked out of the house.
Jiang Yunshan's eyes widened, and he stayed for a long time, stunned to see Jiang Baoqing appear in front of him in a new dress.
Due to malnutrition in previous years, Jiang Baoqing was born more yellow than children of the same age. These days, after Jiang Baoqing's good health and recuperation, some flesh has slowly grown on his thin cheeks, and his beautiful posture has been faintly visible.
At present, Jiang Baoqing replaced the patches and patches that she usually wears that can't see the color, and puts on the dresses she embroidered by herself with the leftovers of the cloth head. However, this brightness will not be unconventional to the point of being eye-catching, but it just makes Jiang Baoqing's immature little face more and more cute.
This dress is very different from the Jiang Baoqing who was like a little flower in the past.
Jiang Yunshan came back to his senses and couldn't help but wipe his somewhat sour eyes.
Jiang Baoqing turned around in front of Jiang Yunshan, and was very happy: "Brother, is it good-looking?" ”
Jiang Yunshan nodded busily: "Good-looking, good-looking!" Our Baoqing is dressed like this, and she looks better than those daughters in the county! ”
Who doesn't like to be praised by girls, Jiang Baoqing smiled and stroked the hem of her skirt: "Brother, will you also change into the clothes you made for you today?" ”
Jiang Yunshan's face froze, and he changed the topic hesitantly.
However, this honest child is really not good at lying, Jiang Baoqing is a transparent heart, and she can see Jiang Yunshan's embarrassment almost at a glance, she blinked: "Brother, what's wrong?" ”
Jiang Yunshan's face was a little pale, he almost didn't dare to look at Jiang Baoqing's eyes, and changed the topic with a little stammer: "Baoqing, nothing, nothing...... Look, see what else needs to be done here, let's get ready to go to Big Tiger's side. ”
Jiang Baoqing paused, a smile appeared on his face, and he pretended to be fooled by Jiang Yunshan's little trick to change the topic: "Ah, by the way, I have to go and get a piece of baggage cloth, otherwise there will be no place to put things when I buy them." ”
didn't force Jiang Yunshan to ask what was going on, but just put this matter in his heart.
Jiang Yunshan breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, and the nervous look on his face eased a lot.
