"the child, I have to let the children go to school, if I don't go to school, I earn twenty-eight yuan a month, and I don't have my share at any time." Gao Wenshan looked at her and said as he walked.

"Go up, when did I say I wouldn't let it go." Guo Xiuli said angrily, "If you find me more jobs pasting cartons, I can also earn more money." ”

"If it's okay in the future, I'll stick with you, and I can earn some money, so that I can pay off my debts as soon as possible." Gao Wenshan gritted his teeth and said, to be honest, this is all the old ladies who have nothing to do at home to make up for the family, and it is really embarrassing for a dignified man to paste a cardboard box, but now he can't care about his face, and he owes a lot of debt, so he can only follow the paste.

"No, no, this is a woman's work, where can you do it!" Guo Xiuli shook her head and said, "You're already very tired from work, what I can do is just paste the cardboard box?" It's simple. ”

"Let's close the door, they can't see it, okay, you just listen to me!" Gao Wenshan made a final decision.

In these years, the neighborhood committees of each street have some large and small side jobs, such as: folding pages, wearing books, pasting paper boxes, embroidery, patching flowers, sewing, etc., some of these manual labor have workshops, and most of the types of work do not have workshops, all of them are workers who take back semi-finished products to complete in their own homes, and hand over the work at the specified time. This type of work is mainly distributed to some residents whose families are more difficult, and most of them are housewives who do not have formal jobs, so that they can earn some pocket money to supplement their families.

This job is small, a few boxes are only a penny, but the technical content is low, and the whole family can go into battle.

As soon as Guo Xiuli and the others came, Gao Jinshan found such a job for the younger siblings first, so that they could earn money at home to supplement the family, and not delay cooking at home and watching the children.

"Don't be convinced, you feel sorry for those few dollars, you have to look farther, and calculate what kind of ability your family's few dollars are!" Gao Wenshan said angrily, looked at her and said, "My brother is the most promising of our brothers and sisters, you admit it!" ”

"I'll admit it." Guo Xiuli nodded and said, when she first said that she was married, her mother's family took a fancy to it, that is, his brother was a big official in the city.

"Money is really not a thing, let's pay back the money to buy a house slowly, and when something big happens in the future, my brother will move his mouth, and it will be solved." With my brother's age, his career is still on the rise, and we don't know where he will go in the future. Gao Wenshan analyzed his mother-in-law.

"What's the big deal?" Guo Xiuli asked with a puzzled face.

Gao Wenshan listened to him and spent a long time talking, but the woman didn't understand, "Why are you stupid." ”

"I'm stupid! That's why I ask you? Guo Xiuli honestly admitted, not embarrassed at all.

"Work! Getting married or something, it's not all a major life event. Gao Wenshan took a deep breath and said patiently, "My brother has been in the city for more than ten years, and this relationship is definitely stronger than ours." In the future, the child will be successful in his studies and have a career, whether he is recruiting or being a soldier, he will count on my brother! ”

"That's right." Guo Xiuli nodded in understanding.

"But we can't embarrass my brother! As soon as the children are pulled out, they are illiterate, what are they not doing, what are they called, where do you call my brother's face. Gao Wenshan said eloquently, "If the children have a high level of education, give him a beautiful task, and the leader praises him, my brother will have a light on his face, right!" ”

"That's it." Guo Xiuli looked at him suddenly and said, "Dad, how did you come to the city to learn so many twists and turns." ”

"Live to be old, learn to be old, and watch more, and you will naturally know." Gao Wenshan said incomprehensibly.

While talking, the two walked back to the front yard, Gao Shuixian stood on the steps worriedly, and when he saw them coming back, he greeted them, and the four children also ran over and surrounded them, "Dad, mother." ”

"When you enter the city, you call your parents, didn't you say you." Gao Wenshan looked at the four children and said.

"Oh! Parents. The four children said neatly.

The iron egg spun around on them, "Mom and Dad, you guys quarreled. ”

"No, I'll tell your mom something, about your school." Gao Wenshan immediately diverted the child's attention.

"Go to school, can we go to school?" Steel Dan'er said excitedly.

"Of course, you all go to school." Gao Wenshan waved his hand.

"But my mother said that the family didn't have the money to let us go to school." Tie Dan'er said sensibly, "I'm not going to go, let my younger brothers go!" But the bottom of his eyes was stunned, holding back tears to prevent it from flowing.

Gao Wenshan glared at Guo Xiuli, "What are you talking about in front of the children?" ”

Guo Xiuli shrank her neck and defended, "What is the situation in our family, it is clear at a glance, and the children are fools." ”

Gao Shuixian hurriedly interjected again, "Second brother, second brother, are you struggling to provide for the children to go to school?" ”

The four children looked at Gao Wenshan, the head of the family, with big eyes.

"Silly boy, my father and mother are just smashing pots and selling iron, and they also let you all go to school." Gao Wenshan stretched out his hand and rubbed their heads and said, "Dad has already suffered enough of being uneducated, where can I make you suffer again!" ”

"But Dad......" Steel Dan'er quickly changed his words, and couldn't help but say worriedly, "Where did Dad's money come from for school." ”

"Thank you uncle for this, he continues to pay for your schooling, if anyone dares to be unfilial to your uncle, be careful that Lao Tzu breaks his dog's legs." Gao Wenshan said sharply.

The four children nodded heavily and said, "Dad, we are filial to our uncle." ”

"It's not just talking." Gao Wenshan warned them, and then said, "Don't worry about money, in the future, Dad and your mother will paste cardboard boxes together to earn money." ”

"We can too." The four boys immediately said.

"Okay, I'll talk about it later, now I'm going to work." Gao Wenshan raised his eyes and looked at the sun and said.

"Brother, why is your face so red!" Gao Shuixian looked at his cheek and said suddenly.

Guo Xiuli looked embarrassed, and didn't know what to say with her mouth open?

Gao Wenshan said smartly, "The sun is shining." He walked quickly towards the bike, "I won't tell you, I'm going to work." "I got on my bike and went out of the house, and I got on my bike and walked away like I was on Hot Wheels.

The rest of Guo Xiuli and the others entered the room and sat at the low table, continuing to paste the cardboard box, and the four boys leaned over and said, "Mom, let's help you." ”

"Will you?" Guo Xiuli looked at the four of them.

"Mom will teach us." Tie Dan'er said positively.

"Alright then!" Guo Xiuli thought about it and said, she couldn't do it for a few days anyway, and when she went to school, she would have no time.

The whole afternoon was spent in a paper glue box.
