Chapter 17 home
Early the next morning, Pei Xiu supervised several children to finish squatting, and let them play Zhou Cheng's tricks by themselves.
Give each of them a bowl of porridge and a hard-boiled egg. After eating, take the prepared basket and take them to Master Zhou's house.
Before I left yesterday, I asked my sister-in-law about Dr. Zhou by the way, saying that I just came back a few days ago, and I should have been sorting things recently. Master Zhou and his wife came back with their eldest grandson, but their son and daughter-in-law did not come back from Fucheng.
When Pei Xiu came to the door, she could count them, a woman in her forties who was younger than her mother-in-law opened the door. ''Hello auntie, I'm a hammer. Yesterday, a few children fought. I heard that your child was injured. Come and see. Some of my skin boys are young and don't know the severity. I'll accompany you. . ''
The woman invited Pei Xiu into the main room. The yard was three times that of Pei Xiu's house. There were three rooms in the main room, three rooms on the right side, and a kitchen and a warehouse on the left side. The bluestone slab is clean and tidy, and the main room is large and bright.
’’ What’s wrong with accompany, let them solve the child’s affairs by themselves. Such an old child is very skinny, what's the point of a child fighting, and they play together again within two days. My eldest grandson is spoiled by his mother, has a bad temper, and is a bit domineering. I will invite more villagers in the future. wait. ’’ Aunt Zhou asked Pei Xiu to sit and brought some cakes for the children to eat.
''Whatever my aunt says, no one's child will be accustomed to it if it is not a baby bump. It's just that we country people are not as sophisticated in raising children as the big families in the city, and boys are playing wildly everywhere. Growing up by beating and beating. '' Pei Xiu handed the basket over,'' Auntie, don't be busy, we all came here after breakfast. Is Young Master Zhou up? This basket of eggs will make up for him. ''
''You are too polite, just kidding around and giving away eggs. Just keep it at home, you have four children. And my skin boy is called Zhou Yi. You can call him Zhou Yi. No matter where you are a young master, we are all from mud legs. ''
''Auntie, don't push it around, be careful if you break it. We villagers from the village can't come empty-handed the first time. And you just moved here, the chickens haven’t been raised yet, and you have to go outside to buy eggs, it’s going to cost a lot of money, keep it.’’
''Ok, then thank you. '' Aunt Zhou is also a cheerful person.
''Auntie, are you planning to leave when you come back this time? ’’ Pei Xiu thought of the purpose of this visit, and hurriedly asked.
''I don't plan to leave. The old man is old and hard to leave his homeland. He likes the field life. ’’ Aunt Zhou said with emotion, the golden den and the silver den are not as good as his own dog kennel, and no matter how prosperous the outside world is, it can’t compare to the tranquility of the countryside.
''Then Confucius planned to set up a school, and there wasn't a school in the surrounding ten-mile-eight villages, and it was inconvenient for the nearby children to go to school in the town. Zhou Confucius was still so young, didn't he plan to teach any more students? ’’ Pei Xiu hurriedly asked while the iron was hot.
''The village chief also said at the door yesterday that if he can read and write, let the village have more reading clerks. '' Aunt Zhou said clearly.
Pei Xiu said sincerely, ''I am dissatisfied with my aunt, and I also plan to send my children to school. After I can recognize a few words, I can find a good job to do, so I don't have to work as hard as us. '' It is indeed winter now, and it is not suitable to run a school. It will not be too late to wait until the next year.
A few children couldn't stay in the house. When they were chatting, they ran into the yard to play. Zhou Yi heard the movement and ran out. Several children were arguing. Pei Xiu and Aunt Zhou didn't care about them. The noise is normal.
Hammer lent the wooden knife to Zhou Yi to play with for a day, and he was generous when he got what he wanted. Originally, he also had a lot of toys, some gadgets bought on the street, and he piled up a basket. The hammer lent him a wooden knife, and he also let the hammer choose the same to take back to exchange for play. Are you at his house now, you can play whatever you want, you can borrow them generously to play for a while. UU reading www. uukanshu. com
Children's friendship is so magical, just after a fight, they turn around and play again.
When Pei Xiu asked what she wanted to know, she stopped disturbing her and called out a few children to go back.
A few children have never seen each other before. They have played with so many toys, and they are reluctant to leave. They want to take back one when they see one, and want to take it back when they see that one. '' Go back and feed the chickens, or there will be no eggs to eat tomorrow. '' Pei Xiu urged.
Zhou Yi said generously, ''I can let each of you choose one to take back to play, but you must take me to play, I am not familiar with the countryside. And my name is Zhou Yi. ''
''My name is Hammer, the second brother's name is Mu Tou, the third brother's name is Bench, and he is also my brother's name Zhou Shan. We don't have a big name yet. '' Each of the four chose a toy, and happily took Zhou Yi away.
Pei Xiu didn't care about them either, as long as she completed the chicken raising task assigned to them. The boys are all skinny, and they are in the countryside. They can play too much. Every day, they are willing to come back to eat for a quick meal.
Since the potatoes and sweet potatoes were planted, Pei Xiu has paid close attention to their situation. She has to walk around the two rooms several times a day. The seeds are sprouted before they are planted. I don't know if they will survive. Humidity, which is critical to the quality of her life in the rest of her life, should not be sloppy at all.
All the cabbage and radishes in the field were brought to the warehouse, and the leek roots were dug up and planted in the room, and they could be cut every few days. Pei Xiu thought that if it was colder, maybe they could sell them in the town.
Now there are no greenhouse vegetables. In the winter in the north, there are only cabbage, radish and pickles. After eating for a winter, you can't see any green leafy vegetables. If this leek grows satisfactorily in winter, it will also be a source of income. Next year, it will cost another sum of money to send the children to school. Now Pei Xiu is racking her brains to make money.
