He first said to the eldest son sitting on his left hand: "Boss, you handled the matter well yesterday, the owner praised you behind his back, praised you for being sensible and educated, I took you to study for half a year, you can deal with this kind of thing flexibly alone, do it well, if nothing goes wrong, at the end of this month, the sixth master who is in charge of the accounts will officially accept you as an apprentice in bookkeeping, and the owner will look down on you at that time!"

"Yes, Dad. However, the boy who has only reached the age of sixteen has already shown a little old-fashioned, which is not his original intention, but since he saw his father pleading with him half a year ago, he almost knelt down and kowtowed to beg the owner to accept him, and he became sensible all of a sudden.

Gu Shi nodded with satisfaction, took the meal handed over by his daughter, and beckoned everyone to continue eating, he also looked at his wife who was sitting quietly in the last seat while eating, and asked, "Do you want to take the girl to Sister Li's house to learn from the girl?"

His wife said: "Xiaoxue is getting older, I don't want her to continue to stay at home and only know how to fight with her younger brother, even if it is a girl, it is always good to know a skill, Sister Li's female red needlework is already excellent, and I specially came to the door to say a few times, I think this is a good thing." ”

The second daughter, Gu Xue, took small sips to dig rice into her mouth, and deliberately fought with her younger brother with chopsticks when she went to pick up pickled vegetables.

Gu Shi frowned and said, "Let me think about it." ”

For the sake of her daughter's future, her wife also rarely contradicted and urged: "What else do you want, Xiaoxue is getting older day by day, and when she gets married like me, she can't do anything else except cook at home and clean up housework, so you can't let your in-laws beat and scold at will?"

Gu Shi frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you talking about, when will I beat you and scold you?...... I'm in charge of everything outside, you just need to cook at home and clean up the housework, this is the best blessing, you don't know the blessing in the blessing - it's really idle!"

As he spoke, he took his chopsticks and tapped them heavily on the edge of the bowl.

The wife, who has always been silent and silent, insisted unreasonably this time: "I don't care, I'm going to take Xiaoxue to learn something...... Moreover, Sister Li's house is upstairs, and it's almost the same as staying at home, what are you worried about?"

Gu Shi sighed, and said in his heart, women are really troublesome, with long hair and short knowledge, but this time I had to patiently say a few more words to her, and said:

"Although I haven't read a book, the people I've seen over the years have seen a sea of things, and my eyes are bright!

She Sister Li is good at needlework, the daughter of the martial arts family comes to her to ask her for a red hijab and a mandarin duck pad when she gets married, and she can earn money to support her family while sitting at home, which is her ability, she is too lazy to do this kind of thing of picking up money, but she cares about other people's daughters who are half the age of the family, and she goes to her house to learn needlework, and she doesn't earn a lot of money to do this kind of thing, saying that she is not doing her job is light, she is a ghost, and she has ulterior motives!"

His wife glanced at him secretly, but said unjustly for Sister Li:

"People have done good deeds and sacrificed so much, but you think they have done something wrong. Do you think that in the name of teaching women red needlework, she secretly does things that are not good for them? Do you think I can't think of it stupidly? Since Sister Li said this, I went to her house a few times, she didn't hide her selfishness at all, she was seriously instructing those girls to needlework, other than that, nothing else said or done, people don't ask for anything in return, what do you want people to do!

Some of the people who studied with her are already married at an old age, because of this ability, they have talked about a better in-law, and their lives are good, much more comfortable than those stupid women who don't know anything, and a few of them even married martial artists, and their children and descendants will be different people in the future! This is all the credit of Sister Li. ”

I asked her why she did this, she said that it was to watch these little girls stay at home, grow up at home, have nothing to do, waste their lives, and have no skills, imagining the difficulties of their growth and marriage, it hurts to endure, she feels that she still has some ability, and everyone is a neighbor, so she will teach them some skills, and they can marry a better in-law in the future, and they will not be looked down upon...... Whining...... I only hate that I didn't meet a Sister Li when I was a child, and now we are lucky to be bumped into by Xiaoxue, I will let Xiaoxue go anyway, you often say how hard it is outside, but isn't it difficult for your daughter's house? You don't understand at all, you think it's comfortable to eat and drink well at home? But Sister Li understands and is willing to do something, so you say that people are bad-hearted...... Woohoo......"

In the end, she couldn't help crying, and even she didn't know why she was crying.

It's not sadness, but a more complex emotion that she can't describe at all, for someone like Sister Li, for Sister Li to say such things, for her to do such a thing, such as Xiaoxue, a girl who was basically raised at home until she got married, those who studied needlework seriously, even if their fingers were pricked with a little blood, they didn't cry or grit their teeth and insisted......

The feeling was so complicated that she couldn't tell or make sense of it, she just wanted to cry.

In the end, she simply stopped talking, and let this complex and inexplicable emotion permeate her heart, filling her whole heart to the full, and crying.

The three children watched the sudden scene, and with a look of utter incomprehension, they went back and forth between their father, whose face had turned completely dark, and their mother, who was crying.

The eldest son and daughter were secretly watching, and the younger son was simply curious and unscrupulous, so he almost asked: "Dad, what are you crying about, are you bullying her?"

Seeing his mother-in-law suddenly come out like this in front of her children, Gu Shi's eyebrows suddenly jumped wildly, and he just wanted to scold the bowl and scold, shameful!

Do you also have the face to say you're not stupid?

You're so stupid!

was sold and helped to count the money, it is said that it is a person like you, do you know!

But...... How many years have I not heard this woman cry so bitterly?

What he remembered most was when he unveiled the red hijab of this woman who was seven years younger than himself when he was twenty years old - at that time, he could only call a girl, and he was not a few years older than Xiaoxue now, and the first thing he saw was her little face that was completely made up and cried. Just by looking at himself, his face turned pale with fright, and his voice was frightened, but the two eyeballs were like a spring, and the gurgling kept gushing out.

I don't know which of the things he saw touched his nerves, he decided to take care of this woman for the rest of his life, these years, no matter how great the hardship, no matter how difficult it is, he is dead outside his home, the house that is getting better and better, from the dirty and dangerous shantytown and broken house, to the community building to which the martial arts hall belongs to the safety and security, witnessing his efforts.
