Chapter 89 Think of the source when drinking water
Mobile reading
After eating, Jiang Yu'er went back. From the time she got up in the morning until now, she has been running around non-stop, and she hasn't stopped! In two days, it was time to pay the monthly money, and she came back from Zhang Sanshun and Li Feng to take attendance, planning to calculate the wages of the workers.
Two days later, I went to the town to exchange the silver ticket in my hand for cash silver and copper plate, and this silver ticket was still given by Zhu Yuan's family to buy stones. This is all her belongings.
Time passed imperceptibly, reflecting the dim oil lamp. Jiang Yu'er couldn't remember the first time she picked up the wick, and it wasn't until the rooster crowed that she realized that it had been another night. In this era when there are no shortcuts such as calculators, she has to calculate the wages of each worker over and over again, for fear of making a mistake.
Don't look at dozens of people, it really takes a lot of time to get it down. At this moment, she was extremely nostalgic for the computer in her previous life. These data are imported directly, and you don't need to calculate them slowly, so you must calculate them extremely accurately.
Cleaned up and lay back on the bed. She thought, just lie down for a while, and she has to go to the market today. Just go and see my brother and brother, they've been to the academy for so long, it's time to go and see them.
Also, she wanted to talk to Meng Lao and ask him to help educate some of her younger brother on how to behave. She's not around, she can't teach. Expecting the elder brother to tell the younger brother how to behave must be better than not teaching him. The education of the elder brother to the younger brother must be the education of violence. In his words, boys are made of sticks.
Jiang Yuer disagreed with her brother's approach. It was also later that she learned from her second aunt that her brother used to be very naughty and was often cleaned up by his father. In Daddy's words, filial piety comes down from the stick. Therefore, the saying that boys become mature under the stick is also passed down from their father's generation. Of course, that's all for later.
It's just that when Jiang Yu'er woke up, it was already lunchtime. She patted her head in annoyance, it's really like this every time, who said yes for a while? In this era when there is no alarm clock, she really has no rut at all. It seems that she has to find someone to wake herself up, otherwise it will not be a problem to go on like this.
Thinking of this, she didn't even have time to eat, so she ran to the mountain behind her house to call Zhang Sanshun. Not only does she have to exchange for silver today, but she also has to buy a girl or a mother-in-law to come back, not only to do it for herself, but also to wake herself up.
The two drove the family's ox cart to the town, and the first thing they did was to find a place to fill their stomachs first. Because she woke up late, she was now hungry with her chest pressed against her back. Zhang Sanshun obviously knew better than she knew about finding food, and he took her to the location of a vendor on the side of the bridge. It's not a meal, but the stalls are full of people.
Jiang Yu'er looked at Zhang Sanshun with some doubts, only to see Zhang Sanshun smile and say: "This family has been setting up a stall here for some years, don't look at it as just a small stall, the taste is good." We didn't know it before, but even the young master brought our general here to find out here. ”
Listening to his explanation, Jiang Yu'er was even more puzzled. The business is so good, why doesn't this boss buy a shop or rent a shop to start a little bit.
Zhang Sanshun seemed to see Jiang Yu'er's doubts, and explained: "This is a pair of old people. It is said that when they were young, their young son was abducted by a kidnapper because they set up a stall here. The reason why they have been here all this is because they want their youngest son to be able to come here to find them when he grows up. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yu'er frowned slightly, it is true that no matter what era, there are not a few people who abduct and sell children and women. Some families are lucky enough to be able to get it back, while others have lost their loved ones and have no chance to see each other again.
With some curiosity, she raised her head, looked at Zhang Sanshun, and asked, "Then did their children come to them?" ”
Zhang Sanshun shook his head slightly and said, "No! ”
The number of people in line in front of her gradually decreased, and Jiang Yu'er saw clearly that the old man was about sixty years old. With snow-white hair, an old face full of wrinkles, and two pairs of cloudy old eyes, he will always look carefully when he sees a visitor. It's like they're looking for something.
Seeing the scene in front of her, Jiang Yu'er not only had a sour nose. Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, no matter how many children there are in the family, they can't make up for the pain they lost at the beginning.
When it came to Jiang Yu'er and the two of them, the old man looked at the little girl in front of him, and then looked at Zhang Sanshun carefully and seriously, and then asked with a smile: "Girl, do you eat noodles or wontons?" ”
Jiang Yu'er glanced at Zhang Sanshun, he said that he wanted wontons, and he also asked for a bowl, and said to the old man with a smile: "Old man, let's have two bowls of wontons!" ”
"Howler! Let's find a seat for both of you! ”
The two found an empty place to sit down, and then heard Zhang Sanshun say: "It is said that the two old men have been here for nearly 40 years, and from the time they set up a stall here to the present, the price has not increased, and they have been buying wontons for two pennies a bowl for so many years." ”
Jiang Yu'er was also surprised for a while, she hadn't seen how big a bowl of wontons there were, not to mention more than 20 of them! Such a big bowl, she Jiang Yu'er felt that she couldn't finish it. I didn't know before, she thought there were only a dozen! Now when she hears Zhang Sanshun say that such a big bowl is only two pennies, can she not be surprised?
stood up and said to the two old men: "Old man, I have a small amount of food, and it is enough to trouble me to cook ten bowls." ”
Who knows, as soon as she said this, she found more than a dozen pairs of eyes looking at her. She didn't know why, but Zhang Sanshun stretched out his hand and pulled her, and said, "Miss, this wonton is only two pennies a bowl, and we don't lack those two pennies." ”
Jiang Yu'er was stunned for a moment, and then thought of something and said, "You misunderstood, I just don't want to waste food." The so-called drinking water should think of the source, and eat thriftily. Chinese food on a grain plate is all hard work. A porridge and a meal are not easy to come by, and every wisp of perseverance is difficult. Therefore, we must take as much as we can and don't waste food! ”
Seeing that everyone was stunned when they heard this, Jiang Yu'er said again: "We can eat enough now, but in this world, there are still many people who can't eat food and gnaw tree bark." We don't waste the food we saved, we don't ask how many people we can help, but we want to save one person. ”
At this time, a man in a green shirt stood up, arched his hand towards Jiang Yu'er and said: "Although the little girl is small, she is a sensible and knowledgeable person, she is really ashamed to be under it, she has lived for most of her life, and she doesn't know this truth." Listen to what the girl said today, and it will be used in the next three lives. ”
Jiang Yu'er was a little embarrassed, and bowed to the man embarrassedly: "This son is overrated. In fact, it was the little woman's family that had no pot and no rice before, and this feeling was deeply experienced, so she had this sigh. ”
