In the past ten days, it has been the easiest day since Su Xusheng remembers.

Su Xihai was notified to go to sea on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and Wang Zhenhua stayed at home to take care of the children according to the previous discussion, and at the same time cleaned up the farmland at home to prepare for planting peanuts.

As soon as Su Xihai left, the home was very clean, and the mother and son rarely spent the rest of the Spring Festival at ease.

With his mother's care, although Su Xusheng also had to help with housework, he kept up with the three meals, and his mood was relaxed.

Su Manjin looked at Su Xusheng's bright little face, and she was also happy for him.

"Su Xiaosheng, you're having a good time these days!"

Su Xusheng smiled, rarely playful: "Yes, thanks to Su Xiaoman's help." ”

"Yes, yes, there is progress, children, you have to grow up happily!"

Su Xusheng retorted: "You are also a child, I am two months older than you!" ”

Su Manjin smiled and didn't refute him, "School will start in two days, have you completed your winter vacation homework?" ”

"It's been done a long time ago, a few days ago, after you helped me with my tuition, I came back and found that I basically did my winter vacation homework! There are only two questions left, so you can help me look at them later. ”

"Okay, I'm not just here to see you today, is your mother at home?"

"Here, she's preparing to cook", Su Xusheng was puzzled: "Su Xiaoman, what are you looking for my mother?" ”

"Ask her something, you call her."

Wang Zhenhua wiped her hands on her apron, walked out, and saw Su Manjin, she was a little embarrassed.

Last time, the girl came to persuade her, but she didn't give others a good face.

But regardless of previous suspicions, people still help themselves find a way to solve the problem.

Wang Zhenhua greeted with a smile: "Xiaoman, you're here, don't stand at the door, come in." ”

This is the first time Su Manjin has entered Su Xusheng's house.

The house was cleaned up neater than he remembered, and Wang Zhenhua, who wanted to come to the previous life, was also ruined by life and lost confidence.

"Xiaoman, what did you say was looking for Auntie?" Wang Zhenhua handed over a glass of water, looked at Su Manjin and asked.

"Auntie, that's the case, our family is going to open a store, there are not enough people, I think you are at home recently, do you want to come to the store to help?"

Wang Zhenhua was stunned for a moment, and said a little crampedly: "What kind of store to open, I don't know how to read, and I don't know if I can help." ”

"Auntie, don't worry, our store is in the seafood business, the work is not difficult, you should be competent."

"Of course, we pay your salary, but because the business has only just started, this year's salary can only be given to you at the current small wage rate, 900 yuan per month, and you can take 1.5 days off a month."

"However, the daily working hours and rest time are arranged according to the on-site arrangement, and occasionally overtime is required. If business is good next year, then consider processing money. ”

Wang Zhenhua never dared to think that there was such a good thing, according to the salary of a small worker, she could even rest for a day and a half.

Now the small workers, although the price is not bad, but the construction period is not normal, in the case of rainy days or materials are not in place in time, they have to stop work, and there is no income if the work is stopped.

Xiaoman said that this job, for himself, is to ensure income in drought and flood.

Su Manjin saw that Wang Zhenhua had already shown a heartfelt expression, and she continued to add.

"But, Auntie, I have a request."

"You say, Xiaoman you say." Wang Zhenhua stared at Su Manjin, beating a drum in her heart.

"Auntie, my request is: as long as Su Xusheng wants to study, you have to provide him with study, elementary school, junior high school, high school, university, if he can be admitted, you have to support him to study, and you can't let him drop out of school halfway to work. I need your commitment to this. ”

Wang Zhenhua didn't think that Su Manjin was actually this request.

She thought for a while: "I promise you, as long as Xiaosheng can study, I will support his studies by selling iron." ”

Su Manjin nodded, she took out the key to the store from her bag, took out one of them and handed it to Wang Zhenhua.

"Okay, then arrange things at home, just start working tomorrow, and the salary will be paid on the 10th of each month."

"This is the key to the store, the two rooms directly opposite the intersection of Zhangcuo Village, next to the grocery store. Tomorrow at 7 o'clock in the morning, you go to the store and do the hygiene first. I'll be over around eight o'clock. ”

Wang Zhenhua took the key.

"By the way, Auntie, you may have to bring your own tools to clean the store tomorrow. I just talked about the store, I haven't had time to buy daily necessities, and now it's too late to go home, so let's buy it tomorrow, you can prepare first, do you have any questions? ”

"No problem, Xiaoman, these tools are available at home, I'll just bring them."

Su Manjin nodded, turned to Su Xusheng, looked at his little expression, and couldn't help but smile.

Su Xusheng watched Su Manjin talk to his mother from the side, and he couldn't say a word......

"Su Xiaosheng, what kind of expression do you have?" Su Manjin complained about him with a smile.

"Su Xiaoman, you didn't pay much attention to me today......"

Su Manjin covered his face, "Aren't I talking to your mother, besides, I still want you to accompany me to the roadside station for a while, waiting for my grandfather." ”

Wang Zhenhua hurriedly said: "Yes, it's almost dark this day, and it's not safe for you little girl to walk so far." Or let Xiaosheng take you home! ”

Su Xusheng suddenly became energetic: "Then let's go!" ”

Su Manjin said with a smile: "Auntie, my grandfather goes to the restaurant to deliver goods, and he usually doesn't go home until dark, so I'll wait for him on the side of the road." Otherwise, it would not be safe for Su Xiaosheng to walk back alone later. ”

After saying hello, Su Xusheng pulled Su Manjin to the door of the house.

"Su Xiaoman, did you swim with lanterns yesterday?" Su Xusheng looked at the girl beside him.

"Well, there are a lot of activities organized in our village, so I'm going to join in the fun."

"Did you buy lanterns?"

Su Manjin was a little strange, why did Su Xusheng keep asking about the lanterns.

She shook her head, "I didn't buy it, I bought it for my brother Xiao Jinyang." ”

Su Xusheng took out a small object from the big pocket of his coat and handed it to Su Manjin.

"Xiaoman, I made it myself, I have fixed the candle, and you won't fall over if you throw it off", he said as he took out a lighter and lit the candle in the lantern.

A small pumpkin lantern appeared in front of Su Manjin's eyes, and the orange candlelight danced with the air. She took the lantern pole, "Su Xiaosheng, thank you, I like it very much." ”

Su Xusheng looked at the girl's sweet smile under the candlelight, and his mood also jumped with joy.

The two of them carried pumpkin lanterns and walked slowly along Qianlou Village in the direction of the restaurant.

It wasn't until they met Su Jinshun and Su Yuhui on the return trip that the two walked to Qianlou Village together to say goodbye, Su Xusheng looked at Su Manjin's back and disappeared, and then turned around and went home.
