Chapter 26 026 Livelihood
8 years old.
Xu Yan listened, took out a white rabbit toffee from her purse, and handed it to Wang Yu, "Eat sugar." ”
"Thank you, Aunt Yan." Wang Yu took it and politely said thank you.
"No thanks, go read a book!" Xu Yan said, pointing to the book in Wang Yu's hand. Wang Yu nodded and ran back to the house.
At this time, Wan Niang had already washed Xu Yan's clothes, but she just stuck the dust on the ground and passed it through. She handed the laundry tub to Xu Yan and said with a smile, "Okay, your clothes are washed." ”
Xu Yan took it, holding the basin with one hand and pointing to the house with the other, "The one in your family died, and you brought the child back?" ”
"Hmm." Wan Niang nodded, "Wang Jian's children are my children, and I will not treat them badly." ”
"Not that problem!" Xu Yan hated that iron could not become steel, she gritted her teeth and said to Wan Niang: "You bring back the two children, how will you marry in the future?" Yes? Tell me, how do you get married? Who would want someone with a child? This little girl is only 8 years old, and she has to be raised for ten years before she is considered an adult! Ten years, you will be a 25-year-old girl by then! How to get married! Yes! ”
"Swallow, I didn't ......"
"Don't tell me you don't want to get married! I see that your brain is burned out by repaying the favor, you you! You're mad at me! Xu Yan was very angry, she stomped her feet and looked at Wan Niang, "What are you going to do in this life!" ”
"Swallow!" Wan Niang knew that Xu Yan was for her own good, she was not angry, she just said: "I have separated from them, and I don't have to support my old children and mother in the future, and they have nothing to do with each other." You know, when I got married, people took 2,000 yuan to Abba and Auntie, although I didn't get a marriage certificate, but I was also married by Ming Media, and it was unreasonable not to support my mother-in-law in the future. I want two children, so I don't have to raise her. In the future, my two children and I have nothing to do with their family's half a dime. ”
"Two children?!" Xu Yan was almost dizzy, she originally thought that there was only one, but she didn't expect there to be two?
"Well, Wang Jian saved a male doll a few years ago, and he was very obedient."
"Xu Wan!" Xu Yan's teeth chattered, she clenched her fists and stared at Wan Niang, "What's the matter with you?" Stunned? It's much easier to support an old woman than two children, isn't it? You can still get married! ”
"But...... Yanzi, Wang Jian is kind to me, that mother-in-law is not easy to get along with, she has never hugged her own granddaughter, let alone the child Wang Jian picked up. She treats her two children as a burden, I can't watch Wang Jian's two children being thrown away, right? Even if she cares about other people's eyes and has two children. But she definitely won't let her two children go to school! It will definitely enslave the children to work. I can't bear it either. Wan Niang patiently explained to Xu Yan.
"......" Xu Yan listened to Wanniang's words and understood Wanniang's kindness. Wang Jian rescued Wan Niang, she knew it since she was a child, and the idea of repaying her gratitude was engraved into Wan Niang's bones. She was silent for a while, put the laundry tub on the ground, took out a few fifty sheets from the purse sewn in the waistband of her trousers, and unfolded them, it was three hundred yuan, her monthly salary, "I was afraid that my mother would turn over my things and take my money, so she took the money with her." You take it. ”
"Don't."
"If you take it, you will take it. This is the first time I've been paid! When we were children, we said that when we received our salaries for the first time, we would share them equally! Xu Yan said: "Besides, won't it be fifteen in a few days?" At that time, there was a temple fair, eating vegetarian food, didn't you want to roast sweet potatoes whole? You and I will lend you the 300 yuan for change, you take it and use it, and when you make money, you will pay it back to me. ”
"No, I've got money!" Wan Niang refused.
"How long can you afford it? I did not give it to you, but I borrowed it from you. You take it, I'm gone. Saying that, Xu Yan knew that Wan Niang would not accept the money, so she threw the money on the ground, picked up the laundry basin and ran away.
Wan Niang picked up the money and chased out of the hospital, and saw Xu Yan being greeted by her grandmother. Xu Yan hid the 300 yuan, she wanted to be financially independent, and she didn't want to be dominated by her own grandmother. Where does Wan Niang dare to chase her out now in front of Xu Yan's aunt?
But Wan Niang was very moved in her heart, 'How long can you be rich?' When Xu Yan said this, she knew that Xu Yan was worried that she would have no money to spend with her two children. The money sent by the parents who came to apologize added up to more than 800, plus the money given by Aunt Wang Yu and borrowed by Xu Yan, it was already more than 1,000.
What can more than a thousand do? A few years ago, Xu Yan's small western-style building started at 9,000 yuan, and now it will cost more than 10,000 yuan. In this way, a thousand dollars seems like a lot of money.
But in the near future, she can't live with Abba and Mom all the time, she has to find a house to rent or buy a house; The two children have to study, because the school has a reduction and exemption now, so the book fee must be paid, and the material fee will increase year by year; And what they have to eat and wear all year round. A thousand dollars...... Actually, you really can't do anything.
Wan Niang wants to make roasted sweet potatoes, but she doesn't sell them on her back on her back at home, if she really does that, maybe it will be cold on the mountain. Of course, you can also cover it with a quilt, but if you cover it, either the skin is not brittle, or it is covered thinly. So she can only bake and sell to lay down the market, and she doesn't plan to sell only fifteen on this day!
The iron stove of roasting sweet potatoes Wan Niang has seen countless times in scenic spots and streets, and it has long been engraved in her memory. A large paint bucket more than a meter high, with layers of wire shelves in a circle. There is no wire in the middle of two arms wide, which is used to facilitate the charcoal fire to enter, when baking, the paint bucket is covered, leaving only a vent under the small stove, and the sweet potato is in it, and it will be baked after a while.
Wan Niang thought about it, so she went into the house, asked Wang Yu to take a pen and paper, and drew it seriously.
In fact, the bottom is the same as the honeycomb coal stove, except that a large paint bucket is wrapped in the outer layer to preserve the heat of the sweet potatoes on the roasted wire.
Wang Wenyao and Wang Yu were a little curious when they saw what Wan Niang painted, and sat behind Wan Niang and looked at it carefully.
After Wan Niang finished drawing, she saw the two children staring at her cute appearance, unfolded the sketch in her hand, and smiled, "Do you want to know what this is?" ”
"Uh-huh." Wang Yu couldn't stop nodding, fluttering eyelashes, big eyes, a little baby fat cheeks with a bald head, how round and cute you look. Although Wang Yu is thin and small, the baby fat adds a cuteness to her, and Wan Niang loves it very much.
"Yes." Wang Wenyao also replied, he really wanted to, he always felt that Wan Niang was so serious, it must be a very useful and useful thing.
