Chapter 52 The beloved little three
"I want to, Xiao San'er misses her grandma and aunt." The little guy leaned softly in his aunt's arms and said softly.
"San'er doesn't want his uncle to pull just because he thinks about his grandma and aunt?" Qiu Baosheng looked at his little nephew, with a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of smiles and teased his little nephew.
"I miss my uncle, and I also miss my grandfather and cousin. The little three people think about it. The little guy sat upright in his aunt's arms, looked at his uncle, looked at his grandfather, and answered his uncle's words seriously.
"Haha." There was a cheerful laughter in the room because of Xiao San'er's innocence.
"D grandma's sweetheart, come to grandma's place quickly and let grandma kiss her." Qiu Changshi put one arm around Molan and one arm to his precious grandson.
Qiu Huang let go of Xiao Saner and asked him to go to his mother-in-law. Xiao Saner took a few steps to grandma's side, then slowly sat down and gently leaned against grandma's arms.
Qiu Changshi hugged his grandson and asked strangely, "Usually, when I see my grandma, she jumps into my arms. What's the matter now? Why are you so honest? Is it uncomfortable there?" After saying that, he stroked Xiao San'er's forehead. Let's see if the temperature on his forehead is high.
"M grandma, I'm not uncomfortable. It's just that my sister was injured last time and shed a lot of blood. The way she fell asleep was so scary. I had a headache all day at that time. I was afraid that I would hit my sister with too much force." Xiao Saner's voice is not loud, and the speed of speaking is not very fast. But as soon as he finished speaking. Many people in the room got their eyes wet.
"My good grandson, what a good baby." Qiu Chang's eyes were red, and he hugged the sister and brother in his arms.
Molan looked at her younger brother with emotion. He was only 5 years old and had been so long, but he had been remembering his injury for fear that he would have another good or bad.
Her eyes became very gentle. She knew that this younger brother would always be in her heart in the future.
"At the Changhe family, you go to the stove to help your sister-in-law's work. At noon, we are busy, and your sister-in-law is too busy alone." Wang secretly wiped his eyes with a veil, and then told Qiu to go to the kitchen to help make lunch.
"Yes, mother, I'm going now." Qiu wiped his eyes with his sleeve and hurriedly stood up from the kang.
"Steam the remaining white flour and steamed buns. In addition, use eggs and goose eggs. You and your sister-in-law can use whatever you need to use. Don't be reluctant. Wait for Changhe to come back and ask him to make some soju. Wang ordered his daughter-in-law.
"This? The white flour and goose eggs were left to his uncle. Shall we not move? Qiu was a little hesitant. Although she also wants to make something good for her parents, now Mo Changhai needs this. There is no money at home. They made it at noon. What will the eldest brother eat in the future?
"In-laws, we are all in our own family. You're welcome. We will eat whatever you usually eat today. You don't have to be a lay outside with us. Qiu Changshi hurriedly said that she didn't know the situation in the family, so she didn't want to embarrass her daughter.
"Good boy, go quickly and do as my mother says." Wang nodded to his daughter-in-law with a smile. I motioned her to go quickly.
"Um, okay, I'll listen to my mother." Qiu answered. He said.
"Girl, wait for me, I'll go with you. With so many people eating, why are you two busy here? Qiu Huang jumped off the kang and wanted to go with Qiu.
"Um, both of you go and help. I'm going to chat with your aunt. Qiu Chang asked both daughters-in-law to help.
Mo Lan sat with Xiao San'er leaning against her grandma, while Mo Mei and Qiu Yuzhen sat together. They bit their ears from time to time, obviously whispering.
Qiu Changshi and Wangshi chatted for a while and brought the topic to the right path.
"In-laws, we are here this time to ask when you will transplant rice seedlings. Let's try to stagger the day of transplanting rice seedlings so that the old men can help."
Mo Lan listened to her grandma's question, and her mind was full of previous memories. It seemed that her grandpa and uncle had come to help the family transplant seedlings. There was a lot of land in the family, and there were only a few people who worked. Therefore, if grandma's family didn't help, it was estimated that she would have to exhaust her
However, grandpa and others came to help but they didn't please the second room. After finishing the work, they had to listen to the second room's sarcastic words during the meal time. It's really hard and angry. Fortunately, grandma and grandpa are all real people. They help to work for their daughter, so they are angry with the second room. They still help to work every year.
"When the head of the family comes back, let's discuss when to transplant rice seedlings, which will make you suffer every year. I'm really..." Wang's words were a little choked.
"What does the in-laws say? When my daughter marries to your house, we are a family. She is also lucky to meet such a good father-in-law and mother-in-law. It goes without saying that these children are all sensible and well-behaved. What else do I want? So don't go out with me. My children are your children. You can call them when the time comes. Qiu Chang took Wang's hand and said sincerely.
"En" Wang Shi answered, and his nasal voice dragged a little long. Obviously, he was moved. Although the daughter-in-law comes from a farm and is not rich, the family is real and easy to get along with. She is still very willing to have such a in-laws.
Qiu Changshi said a few more words and looked at her eldest grandson and said to Wang Shi, "In addition, the army followed us this time because we thought about sending him to the town as an apprentice in a few days. Thinking of letting him have a look this time, it's not so easy for Lanlan and the others to see their cousins again in the future.
Be an apprentice? Molan frowned. It seemed that it was not easy for her to write apprentices in novels before.
"D grandma, what kind of apprentice is Dajun going to do? How much is the monthly salary? Molan asked.
"There is a carpenter in our village who went to school in the town, and we discussed sending the army to learn carpenter. There is a salary for being an apprentice. There is a place for you to eat. The army can learn craftsmanship, and the family doesn't open its mouth. After he is able to learn, he will also have the skills to eat in the age of the drought!" Qiu Chang sighed after saying that.
"How long will it take to become a teacher? What do apprentices need to do?" Molan raised her little face and asked grandma.
"I'm really not sure. If you meet a good master who is willing to teach you hand in hand, you may be a teacher in two or three years. If you meet a clumsy person, you may not be able to learn something in 70 or 80 years. To be an apprentice is to help the master and serve the master. To put it worse, the master's chamber pot has to be poured out. This person may not really teach you. Qiu Changshi said this in one breath and looked at his eldest grandson, and his eyes were full of heartache and reluctance.
After listening to his grandmother's words, Qiu Dajun's eyes flashed with a trace of gloom, but he did not refute, but lowered his head.
"M grandma, don't send Brother Dajun as an apprentice first. Let him stay at home for a while, learn some arithmetic, know some words and so on. When the time comes, I'll find a buddy for Brother Dajun. Molan thought for a moment and said to grandma seriously. She is going to open a small shop in the future. She will definitely need someone when the time comes. Please rest assured that outsiders have relatives. Besides, looking at my cousin's appearance, he is still a good person.
"You are only a few years old to find a buddy for your brother. What kind of work can you find? Lanlan can't talk big. Although Qiu Chang's words are not very good, she is kind. Her granddaughter is still young, so she can't learn to talk nonsense.
Molan didn't say anything more, but looked up at Grandma Wang. After all, she was young, and she promised her grandma that she didn't believe it. She still had to talk about it.
Wang received her granddaughter's eyes, which made her heart laugh. Knowing that she fell in a good impression on the army, she was reluctant to let him go to the town to be an apprentice and want to keep him.
"In-laws, I think what the girl Lan said is also reasonable. Not to mention the hard work of being an apprentice, when she meets a bad master, she has to beat and scold, and doesn't teach anything. Isn't our army too bad? Just leave him for a while. Maybe there will be a suitable job for him in time. Wang took Qiu Chang's hand and did her job for Molan.
Qiu Changshi looked at her grandson, and then at Molan and Wang. For a long time, she nodded and said, "I'm also reluctant to let the army suffer. There's nothing I can do. Since my in-laws also said so, I will let the army stay for a while. Is it just useful to learn to read and arithmetic?
"It's useful. Grandma, think about it. If Brother Dajun can count and read, it will be easy to find a job, right?" Molan took it first. Since she intends to use people, it is necessary to simply count and read.
"Well, let's find someone to teach him when we go back. Baosheng, do you have anything to say?" Qiu Changshi looked at his grandson's shining eyes and patted his thigh to make a decision. But in the end, she asked her son what he thought.
"My mother is the one who makes the decision. I have nothing to say. Qiu Baosheng was also a filial son and nodded to his mother.
After Mo Lan saw everyone's order, she put down her heart and her eyes flashed. She saw the sacks of cloth in the corner. Except for the uppers made by her aunt, she didn't let her move. She planned to use these to make sachets and cushions after separation, so that she could get an income and she would have
Now it seems that the plan has changed. There is no good opportunity to separate from the second house for a while. You can't starve to death because you don't separate the family. The family needs money, and grandma's family also needs money to change, so she has to make money.
"Milk, can you tell grandma the method you taught me last time to make a sachet? Give part of the cloth to grandma's family, let them do it, and sell it together when the time comes. After thinking about it, Mo Lan stared at Wang Shi with her big eyes and looked at her full of Xiyi.
"Ok, when you finish your meal, you can teach your grandma and your aunt how to look. It's up to you. It's up to you!" Wang looked at her granddaughter with a smile and agreed to her request.
"What a sachet? Why can't I understand what you're saying?" Qiu Changshi looked at the two grandparents and grandchildren who were playing riddles and asked puzzledly.
"After grandma finishes dinner, don't be in a hurry. Go to my mother's house and I'll teach you how to make sachets. This can be sold for money. Molan smiled mysteriously at her grandma.
"It's not good. You can sell the money and you can do it yourself. Let it be done for us. Won't the houseg gossip?" Qiu Changshi has some doubts. She doesn't want to make it difficult for her daughter in this family because of some money.
"It's okay. The work was picked up by the eldest daughter-in-law. The appearance is what I thought. The fabric was changed back by the Lan girl, which has nothing to do with them. Don't worry about your in-laws. Wang comforted Qiu Chang and reassured her.
"Well, we'll learn from Lanlan after dinner." Qiu Chang hugged Molan and laughed. In fact, she didn't take it to heart, thinking that she could only make dozens of dollars.
