After thinking about it for a while, Ning Changrong, who didn't feel good in his heart, couldn't help but say to Ning Changfu, "I like it too, girl, I can't take the imperial examination, and there are still many things to do, if it weren't for Xixi's good memory this time, I don't know where our family's money for labor comes from!" ”

He was really unhappy, what happened to the girl's family? Isn't it still possible to earn money to support your family in modern times? Who is rare and breaks the imperial examination, this court does not do personnel all day long, and he may not be able to look at it when!

Ning Changfu was a little overwhelmed by what his eldest brother said, "Big brother, I, I didn't mean that......"

Seeing Ning Changfu holding the child at a loss, Ning Changrong, who was originally a little angry, suddenly felt a little relieved in his heart, the other party didn't mean it, those words were just based on the thinking of the ancient people.

"Okay, okay, don't say anything about male and female babies in the future, our family doesn't like this." Wang Xiujuan came out to play a round and spent a day with them at home, probably knowing the character of these people, there are many small problems, but there are no bad intentions.

"Okay, just pay attention in the future, Xixi is the life of the eldest brother. I don't like it when someone says her. ”

"Alas, alas, good big brother." Seeing that the eldest brother was discouraged, Ning Changfu hurriedly expressed his position.

"Xixi, the second uncle doesn't mean that, the second uncle is stupid, he doesn't know how to praise people, he just thinks you're very powerful."

Ning Qingxi didn't care, but he didn't expect his father to react so much.

smiled sweetly at Ning Changfu, "It's okay second uncle, I know that second uncle wants to praise me for my good memory." ”

Ning Changgui and his wife didn't speak when Ning Changrong's face was not good-looking, and they shrank in the corner and pretended not to exist.

Seeing that Ning Changrong was discouraged, Ning Changgui hurriedly spoke: "Big brother, our Xixi is so good-looking, I will have a daughter if I have a child in the future." ”

Li Dafeng hurriedly responded, "Yes, I also want a daughter, if I can be half as smart as Xixi, then I will be happy." ”

Ning Qingxi's family can see that this Ning Changgui and his wife are really wonderful people.

Regardless of whether this is true or not, at least it makes people feel comfortable when they hear it.

……

The next day.

Wang Xiujuan took ten cents for Ning Changrong to spend in the city, and she put the rest of the money together to save it.

By the time the Ning family got up, Ning Changrong had already left.

The original Wang Xiujuan has long stopped cooking, and the housework at home is generally Li Dafeng and Fang Chunmei in turn.

Unless it's more precious food, she will go out in person.

Wang Xiujuan herself is naturally happy, there is really nothing to cook in that meal, there is nothing to do, the sanitary conditions are terrible, and it is difficult for the pampered old lady to adapt to this condition.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, so you can only adapt slowly.

Wang Xiujuan's room.

Ning Qingxi rubbed his eyes and sat up, "Milk, have you eaten?" ”

Wang Xiujuan rubbed Ning Qingxi's frizzy hair, and every time she saw it, she wanted to cut it off.

"You little girl has such a big heart, you can still sleep until 10 o'clock in ancient times."

Ning Qingxi said coquettishly: "Oh, don't I have you and my father here?" If I had come alone, I would have been half scared to death! Where do you dare to sleep. ”

"It's good that our family came through, otherwise I'll see what you do." I sniffed and tapped Ning Qingxi's forehead with my finger.

As long as she thought of her granddaughter being alone in ancient times, Wang Xiujuan's heart tightened, uncomfortable, who lived in this ancient poor condition who knows. Fortunately, the Bodhisattva blessed her family and did not waste half her life of incense.

The grandfather and grandson muttered on the bed for more than ten minutes before Wang Xiujuan remembered that she had come to ask Ning Qingxi to get up for dinner.

"Don't say anything, get up and eat. There are only two meals a day, and one less meal can starve people to death. When your father earns money and arrives at the forced labor, our family eats three meals a day! ”

"Milk, what did you eat this morning? Wouldn't it be coarse grains and wild vegetables again? ”

"What else is there to eat? It's not unclear to you what our family has, but I asked your third aunt to make a bowl of cold salad, blanched in water, not so bitter, and more or less a dish. I can eat it in the next few days, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to find it in winter. I don't know how to eat without food this winter. ”

"No, I have to let them hurry up and pick more edible vegetables and come back to dry, do you say there are any Chinese cabbages in ancient times? If we have Chinese cabbage, we can make some kimchi to eat. ”

Speaking of eating, Ning Qingxi was in good spirits, "Milk, you wait for me to check the encyclopedia." ”

Ning Qingxi, who was immersed in his mind and reading the encyclopedia, seemed to outsiders to be in a daze, his eyes were stunned, which made people feel panicked after watching it for a long time.

So Wang Xiujuan and Ning Changrong told her not to use it when there were people, otherwise people would think she was a ghost.

Ning Qingxi, who found the answer, looked happy, "Milk!" This may really have Chinese cabbage, the earliest Chinese cabbage appeared in the Zhou Dynasty, but the ancients called it woad, I think our farm tools here are iron, how is it more advanced than the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. ”

"When my father comes back, let him inquire, and you can also ask if anyone in our village knows."

Wang Xiujuan stroked her palms and said happily: "That's good!" I'm going to ask today. Maybe someone in our village knows about it.

"Don't say this encyclopedia, it's really like a computer, you can look up anything. Pack up and get out. ”

The clothes here are a little difficult to wear, Ning Qingxi is still adapting, Wang Xiujuan can't see it, so she helped her put on her clothes in three or two clicks, cleaned up and walked to the kitchen, Li Dafeng had just brought the meal.

As for Fang Chunmei's share, it had already been brought to her room, and there was one more egg than them.

The paste in the morning is paired with a delicious mother-in-law, sprinkled with a little dogwood, it has a different taste, and Ning Qingxi feels less difficult to swallow.

Of course, it is also possible that she has eaten a few meals and her heart is beginning to adapt.

In the courtyard in the afternoon.

Wang Xiujuan took Ning Qingxi to dry the wild vegetables picked by Li Dafeng on a clean straw mat.

After Li Dafeng washed the dishes, he went to the foot of the mountain to pick wild vegetables with a basket on his back. The bowl doesn't need to be washed, anyway, there is no oil and water, and the grass and wood ash will be clean.

Ning Changgui and Ning Changfu went to the foot of the mountain to chop firewood.

The straw mat was made by Ning Changgui, who would have thought that people who are usually flamboyant would still have this craft.

He is responsible for some of the straw mats and straw mats at home.

The second child, Ning Changfu, is the main labor in the field, and Ning Changgui's strength can't be compared to him, and he is better than skill.

However, Ning Changgui usually doesn't move if he can, unless his mother tells him to.

"Ouch, Sister Wang, are you busy?"

Wang Xiujuan, who was squatting and drying wild vegetables, raised her head, "Sister Ding is here." ”

The people who came were Ren Cuiying, who had a stomach, and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Ding, who were very close to them and lived next to Ning's house.

"Why did your daughter-in-law come out when her belly is so big?"

Wang Xiujuan looked at her bubbling belly and trembled. I guess it's been a few days.

"It's not close to home, it's a lot more to give birth to a good production." Mrs. Ding is not as nervous as Wang Xiujuan, and her daughter-in-law is the second child.
