Chapter 444, the Lin family's short-term work

It's cool to look at it without ads!

Zishou's family really invited guests the next day, but unfortunately, the Winter Clothes Festival came, because Lin Kangping was not at home, Ziqing wanted to take Shurui to send winter clothes to the ancestors of the Lin family, and the Shen family did not want Ziqing to go to the Lin family again, but this winter clothes were related to the ancestral sacrifice, and there was no way to stop them, so they had to tell the big river and the big river that drove the car, as well as the colorful clouds brought by Ziqing, be sure to watch Ziqing.

Since Uncle Lin left, Ziqing came to Linzhuang for the first time, Yu's expression was much worse than before, Lin Kangjian didn't seem to have come out of the grief of losing his father, and Hu didn't laugh like before, and Shuxing, this kiss still didn't work out, and waited, it won't be three years later. However, Ziqing did not see the figure of Shuxing.

Seeing Ziqing, the Yu family was a little surprised at first, and then they thought that it was the Winter Clothes Festival, Lin Kangjian said: "I didn't come to the Midyear Festival, I thought that the third brother went out, and the younger brothers and sisters were afraid that they would forget, so we worshiped together." It's the same this time, I didn't expect that in this cold day, my younger siblings came in a hurry. ”

Ziqing was ashamed when she heard the secret way, Lin Kangping was not at home during the Midyear Festival, but she really forgot, this time, if it wasn't for Mama Hua's reminder, Ziqing was afraid that she wouldn't be able to remember it, because Ziqing's hometown of Anzhou did not have the custom of having a winter clothes festival, this is the first, second, Ziqing has not worshiped Lin Kangping's parents for many years, and she is really not used to it for a while. Ziqing said to her in-laws in her heart, "I'm sorry." ”

Everything was prepared by Mama Hua for Ziqing, and Lin Kangjian and his wife accompanied Ziqing to the grave together, and said, "We burned a piece for the second uncle yesterday, but the second uncle must know that you are here in person." I'm afraid I'll be happier. ”

Ziqing led Shurui to kneel down and said, "Daddy, my daughter-in-law can't help it, I haven't fulfilled my daughter-in-law's duty." It's the first time I've come to send winter clothes to the two, and if the two want to blame, they will blame the daughter-in-law, and it has nothing to do with the father-in-law. The husband is far away... ”

Ziqing Balabala explained a few words, and Shurui said: "Grandpa, grandpa, it's not my mother's fault, my mother has never done this, she doesn't understand." In the future, my mother will understand and will not forget. ”

After Shu Rui finished speaking, he picked up Ziqing. said: "Mother, the ground is cold, grandpa and grandmother know, it's time to feel sorry for you." ”

"My younger brothers and sisters are really blessed, not only with the third brother to protect them. This son, at a young age, knows that he is worried about his mother, he is a sensible person, and the second uncle and aunt should be happy to know it. Hu said.

Ziqing touched Shurui's head with relief and smiled.

Back at the Lin family, Ma and Jiang knew that Ziqing was coming, and they both came over. Yu knew that Ziqing and they had been on the road for a long time, and they were afraid that they would be hungry for a long time, so they cooked in the stove room with Ma's Jiang.

Ziqing washed her hands and went into the stove room to help light the fire, but Yu hurriedly stopped: "Don't do it." I know, you are served by maids and wives at home, and in my place, you can't eat or live well, and you have to do things, but I really wronged you. ”

Ziqing smiled: "Auntie, when I was young, I also had to do things at home, and I wasn't so squeamish." ”

"Auntie knows, you and Kang Ping are both kind-hearted people, your uncle left, do you think you won't deal with us? Speaking of which, I am also to blame for what happened back then, if I hadn't stabbed it, I would have been talking to your uncle all day long, and your uncle would not have moved his mind to sell people. It's also a coincidence, it just so happens that my family has a distant relative, who is a tooth, and he inquired that there is a big family in the capital who wants to buy people, so he came to inform us and sold Kangping into the Wen family. The eldest mother admitted that it would be difficult, the family could not eat enough, and the mother's selfishness made trouble, and she moved the idea of selling Kangping, but in the world, how many mothers do not feel sorry for their children? As he spoke, Yu cried.

Ma stepped forward and persuaded: "Mother, the third brother and sister didn't say that they blamed you, and they said what they were doing with these old things?" ”

Ziqing didn't want to hear them confess this, so she said, "Yes, auntie, the past is over." ”

At this time, Jiang's youngest son Shuda ran in, took Jiang's hand, and said: "Mother, I want to go to school, I also want to go to school, is it okay to learn to read and read?" ”

Jiang touched the child's head and said, "Okay, our Shuda also knows that we have to be motivated." At the beginning of spring next year, my mother will prepare a gift for you to find Mr. to go, but my mother told you that if you go in, you must learn from Mr. ”

Ma Shi smiled when he heard this: "If you want me to say, the fourth brother and sister should not waste money, haven't you also studied for several years, aren't you still farming?" Perhaps, the fourth siblings' family is similar to the third siblings, and the money is still rich, so I'm too talkative. ”

Jiang Shi smiled indifferently when he heard this, and said: "If the child wants to learn, let him go, but I will do more embroidery work in the winter, and the child's father will do a few more days of short-term work, and after a while, he will come out." ”

Ziqing then remembered that Jiang's embroidery work back then still instructed her a few times, so she asked: "Are the fourth brothers and sisters doing large or small embroidery now?" ”

"It's just to sew a purse and embroider a few handkerchiefs, I can't embroider large things well, and it takes my eyes." Jiang said.

Ziqing knows that this small purse and handkerchief can only make two pieces a day if you are proficient, and it is generally good to earn twenty yuan, and you can earn two taels of silver in a winter, and the child's bundle should be enough.

During the meal, Ziqing didn't see Lin Kangxiang, Lin Kangyong and Shuxing, so she asked, "What are the second and fourth brothers doing?" Why don't you come to eat? ”

Hu said: "I went out to do short-term work, and on the road where you came, I heard that there is a family that is cleaning up barren mountains and wastelands and recruiting people everywhere. Oh, my mother, I heard that the land is very big, and the fence and courtyard wall alone are several miles long, tsk, this large piece of land, if the good land can be so good, who do you say has the money to buy a few good pieces of land, and the partial life wants to fix the barren mountain that can't grow anything, and I don't know what these rich people want to do? ”

When Ziqing heard it, isn't it her own land? Is it around here? He asked, "Is it far from here?" ”

"It's more than ten miles away, right? Several of them drove away with donkey carts at dawn, and they were paid 30 yuan a day and took care of two meals, which was kind. Jiang said.

Ziqing really didn't know that her Zhuangzi was near here, and it is estimated that Lin Kangping didn't expect that he would let his cousin and cousin do short-term work, because Lin Kangping explained the matter to Lin Xing and Wang Cai, and went out in a few days, where did he know about hiring people?

However, if I want to hide this matter in the future, I can't hide it, so after thinking about it, Ziqing said: "I don't know if the place my sister-in-law said is my house?" I really haven't seen it, but I know that Lin Kang Pinto bought a mountain, he also hurriedly took a look, handed over the matter to the housekeeper, and left, I guess this will also be unexpected, let the second brother do some short-term work in it. ”

Yu was stunned when he heard this, and Ma was overjoyed when he heard it, and said: "This is easy to do, since it is the third brother's family, it is easy to watch for his own family, and he can be a steward or something, and he doesn't need to sell coolies." ”

Lin Kangjian glanced at her and said, "You forgot what our father told him when he left?" Mo said that the third brother and sister have not yet determined whether it is her family or not, even if it is, it has nothing to do with us, so that we can do our short-term work, take our share of wages, and eat with our own labor, and there is no shame. ”

Yu Shi glanced at the eldest son, but he didn't squeak, but Jiang said: "Third sister-in-law, I don't have any other requirements, can you talk to the steward, if there is work to do, or hire our family, he is not lazy in his work, sincere, really, the master family in this neighborhood knows that he is willing to come to him if there is anything." ”

Ziqing smiled and said, "Naturally, it's no problem, I'll inquire when I go back and ask the housekeeper a few words." ”

Yu Shi listened and said: "Ziqing, reasoning, I, as a mother, shouldn't intercede for the children, but these people should really find something to do outside when they are idle in winter, and their sons and daughters are all older, and there are many places to use money." Since your family hires people, who is not hired? It's better to take your eldest brother with you, your eldest brother is a good worker, if you don't believe it, you can try it. ”

Ziqing listened, this requirement is really not high, besides, this Lin Kangjian, at first glance, is a person who does more things and talks less, and said busily: "It's up to the eldest mother, I asked to understand, and let the eldest brother pass." ”

Ziqing called Dahe and asked, if it was really Lin Kangping's land, he sent him to Lin Xing to talk.

Lin Kangjian rubbed his hands when he saw it, and said: "It's okay now, I can also make some progress, and I can save food at home, thank you brother and sister." ”

Ma Shi listened and said: "My son is also fifteen years old, so it is better to take him to work for a few days, so that he can earn a few dollars to make up for it." ”

Yu glanced at her and said, "Your child is small, people come and go in a mess, one doesn't take care of it, the child has a mistake, who is it?" Let's talk about it when the kids are older. Don't just watch others take this big son, but also weigh your own weight, okay? ”

When Ziqing heard this, Yu's words were really good, and Ma immediately stopped squeaking, which saved Ziqing from embarrassment.

Everyone in the Lin family, at present, it seems that the two of them like to play some clever tricks, and the others are all right, and they don't have to be pulled by Ziqing, they eat with their own labor, and they are tough at all times.

In the evening, Lin Kangxiang came back a few times, and came over to say goodbye to the Yu family first, only then did he know that Ziqing was here, and naturally knew that they were helping Ziqing's family do things, Lin Kangyong didn't say anything, Lin Kangxiang listened and asked: "That large piece of mountainous land, it can't be bought for thousands of taels of silver?" I wonder what the third brother is going to do? ”

"This, I really don't know, I just heard him say that he bought a large piece of mountainous land, I haven't seen it yet, if I hadn't heard my sister-in-law talk about it, I wouldn't have remembered it." Ziqing said.

Lin Kangxiang asked, "The third brother is out?" How long will it take to come back? How come I never saw him there? I've heard that we are going to build a big house there, and the construction has already begun, do you plan to live there, brother and sister? (To be continued.)
