Chapter 52: A Cold Daughter

The gathered people dispersed, in groups of three or five, one or two together, each talking.

Zhu Yanqu hesitated and stepped forward and asked a woman who was walking this way.

led a little girl who was almost three years old.

"Excuse me, what did you say?"

Cheng Shuijiao stopped and looked at Zhu Yanqu with some surprise.

She sighed lightly and looked at her niece Cheng Guixin who was standing beside her with a worried look.

"If there are children between the ages of two and seven in the family, from tomorrow onwards, they will all be sent to the trusteeship hall, and if they are not delivered, they will be fined, 100 yuan per child!"

After Cheng Shuijiao finished speaking, she raised her eyes to look at Zhu Yanqu, and her haggard face showed even more worry.

"My two brothers, a total of four children, if you don't send it, take out 400 yuan, this will not cost my father and mother's life!"

"I see that you also have three children, this survival situation is difficult, it is not easy to make money, just send them all, free care, save a lot of effort, send it every hour, and pick it up at the right time."

Zhu Yanqu looked at Cheng Shuijiao in a daze, and asked again, "Then, who is taking care of the child?" ”

"Mrs. Shen," Cheng Shuijiao finished speaking, realizing that Zhu Yanqu didn't recognize Mrs. Shen, and explained, "That is, Dr. Shen's mother, as well as Miss Qin and Miss Xue." ”

"I won't tell you, I still have to call my nephew to sign up, otherwise I will be fined if I am late."

Before Cheng Shuijiao's words fell, she took Cheng Guixin anxiously away.

Zhu Yanqu followed her slowly, and then retracted his gaze, his eyes were sour, this is taking management and rectification?

He hesitated for a moment before looking back at the three children standing in one place.

In the past, it was the old servant of the family who watched the children, but now when he is alone, he looks at the three of them, in order to survive, he is too busy to take care of them, he is not skilled, he is busy and his feet do not touch the ground, and he doesn't even have much time to talk to the children.

In just a while, many people went to Xi Quan's house with their children and lined up to sign up.

Xi Quan stood at the top, holding a crude book in his hand and a wolf fine brush, recording the names of children read by adults.

When Zhu Yanqu was stunned, the hem of his clothes was gently moved, and he lowered his eyes to see Zhu Xingguo holding the corner of his clothes.

Zhu Xingguo glanced back at Zhou Dongsheng and Gu Huayue, and his voice was hoarse.

"Auntie, take us to sign up, so that you don't have to be so tired from doing two things."

Zhu Yanqu was speechless for a while, his face was solemn, and his gaze slowly shifted to the direction of Xi Quan's house.

The number of people in front of him gradually decreased, and those who finished reporting their names left happily.

How many adults are lacking in skills, it is really inconvenient to take children, and now it is too late to be happy that someone can watch the children for free.

Zhu Yanqu raised his hand and rubbed Gu Huayue's forehead, there was no heat, but his eyelids couldn't hold up, and he wanted to sleep.

"Well, let's go, I'll take you to sign up," Zhu Yanqu led Gu Huayue to walk in front and walked towards Xi Quan's house.

Zhu Yanqu gently pushed the three of them forward, and looked at Xi Quan, who was walking down the steep slope, "I'll sign up for the three of them." ”

"Hmm," Xi Quan responded, the crude book rolled up, raised the pen, his arm was focused, and his bones waved, and he didn't need Zhu Yanqu to say the names of the three of them.

"Thank you," Zhu Yanqu didn't know what to do when he said this, and he was stunned after saying it, having such a county order that thinks about the people and thinks about everything is really a blessing for these people.

Xi Quan also looked at her in surprise, and handed the pen and paper to Xi Yao who was standing beside him, "You ......"

Xi Quan saw it before, Shen Kai handed Zhu Yanqu a piece of paper, and she hurriedly walked away not long after reading it, with doubts in her heart.

"What did Shen Kai give you?"

Zhu Yanqu frowned slightly, not quite understanding this sentence, "What? ”

Shen Kai was talking to his mother Huo Xun, when he suddenly heard someone outside mention his name, so he quickly stood up and walked outside.

"Who's talking about me?"

Knowing that it was Xi Quan, he had the courage to stand at the door with a smile.

Xi Quan glanced at him sideways, turned his gaze, looked at Zhu Yanqu, and suddenly thought of something, "Wait a minute, I'll take the album." ”

Zhu Yanqu saw him take out a drawing from the album and hand it over.

"This is a sketch of the building I made, thinking that you are alone, you can't live much, but then I think about it, if you want to raise some chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits, you also need a location, covering a slightly larger area, although it is a bamboo fence thatched house, it is not as beautiful as the red wall bricks and tiles, it can shelter from the wind and rain, and you and your children can live a stable life."

Zhu Yanqu took it, looked at the drawings, and his ears were his light, unhurried words.

The overall structure of the bamboo house sits in the south and faces north, with a small courtyard, and the places on the drawings are marked with the place to dig a well, build a pavilion, or a vegetable field in the future.

There are three rooms in the east wing, marked with a kitchen and a utility room.

And the internal structure, master bedroom, second bedroom, hall, study.

Everywhere it shows the hermit people in the water towns of the south of the Yangtze River, the prose poets of talented students, and the favorite style.

The main house near the courtyard has a large open window, which is oriented to provide sufficient sunlight on sunny days, and you can watch and enjoy the rain on rainy days.

Suddenly, there was a picture in my mind, choosing a courtyard, working at sunrise, resting at sunset, planting flowers and copying books in my spare time, and listening to the wind and rain.

was really amazed by Xi Quan's carefulness, his soft gaze moved away from the drawing, and he raised his eyes to look at him, "I really think about it comprehensively, I don't know how to thank you?" ”

"Don't thank me," Xi Quan kept his eyes on her, "I'll take people to cut and carry materials, and you will be in charge of making soup and division of labor." ”

Zhu Yanqu had a mist in his eyes, raised his reddish eyes to look at him, and finally just nodded, "Hmm." ”

Zhu Yanqu returned the drawings, "I have to pay you back." ”

Zhu Yanqu thought in his heart that the bamboo fence hut he said was not as beautiful as the red wall bricks and tiles.

lowered his eyes, didn't dare to look at him again, and answered the topic that Shen Fang had interrupted earlier, "What Shen Kai gave me was a list for the purchase of herbs, and I can collect herbs in my spare time, and I can also exchange some money." ”

Shen Kai touched his nose and looked at this scene, a little speechless.

Whether it is a gentleman or a villain, they all like to have beauties in their arms.

It is often said that a gentleman is not messy, looking at this scene, Xi Quan's eldest cousin has already been captured.

If you talk about Zhou Yu, Xu Taozi is a hot beauty.

That Zhu Yanqu is a cold daughter who does not eat the fireworks of the world.

The beauty was reduced to cultivating the fields in the wilderness, collecting herbs for a living, and taking her nephew with her.

I don't know when the lonely life will end?

In this situation, who would take such a beautiful flower away with a flower?

Shen Kai's thoughts flipped over, and when he heard Zhu Yanqu explain what his eldest cousin asked, he knew it in his heart, so he made a lot of jokes.

"What is my cousin afraid of me for?"

Sensing Xi Quan's eyes, he immediately turned around and rubbed his waist, "Ouch, my waist is about to break, because of your order, I have made so many sacrifices, saving people, collecting medicine, driving away poisonous snakes, eh, speaking ......"

He turned around, lowered his arms, and looked straight at Xi Quan.

"Your luck is really good, more than an hour after the departure, there were hundreds of long snakes out of the hole in the village, I and the other villagers have suffered a lot, and I haven't rested yet, you dragged me over again, do you want me to live?"

Shen Kai was speechless, if he didn't say the words he was holding back, he was extremely uncomfortable, and now he said it, and his heart was very comfortable.
