Chapter 23 name
When Pei Xiu came back, she saw Zhou Cheng sweeping the yard. This man really had nothing to say. He could do it both inside and out. The original owner really wouldn't cherish it.
Zhou Cheng saw her coming back and said to her: ''You can choose the child's name. I can only choose a hammer and a wooden bench. I joined the army when I was still young, and the name was given by Shangguan when I was in the army.' '
Hearing what he said, Pei Xiu became curious. What was his name before, he could ask whatever he thought.
Zhou Cheng had a cold face and didn't want to say, Tian Du was killed by her. The more he didn't want to talk, the more curious Pei Xiu became. As for a name, the children in the village have all the names, and she has prepared it in her heart. He leaned over and pestered him, he swept in front of her, she stood in front, turned to the side, she followed, and circled around him, smiling, "Speak, speak, there are all kinds of names in the village, I have my heart. Prepare. ''
Zhou Cheng looked at her helplessly, put the broom in her hand, went to the mountain to pick up firewood, and slipped away.
Pei Xiu didn't get angry when she saw him running away. She would always come back for dinner, and there would always be a way for him to say it. In a good mood, I hummed and swept the floor.
He was wondering what the names of the three children should be. The eldest, Hammer, was only eight years old, and he was taller than most nine-year-old children. The second child is just like his nickname, honest and honest, and he can do whatever the boss tells him to do. The third child is a ghost, a clever one.
These three children have been playing very well with Zhou Yi of Zhou's family recently, and they can't see each other until dinner time when they go up the mountain and down the river. When Zhou Yi first arrived, he looked like a young boy from a wealthy family, but now he is no different from the children in the village. The mountains were all bare, and the river was about to freeze, and I didn't know what the boys were playing. They didn't come back with their father until dinner, and Zhou Yi came back with them.
''Mother, can Zhou Yi eat at our house? Dad said it's pitiful, we haven't finished playing yet. ’’ No way, it’s okay, Pei Xiu packed the porridge out, and went to the kitchen to fry a few egg pancakes for fear of not having enough to eat.
The courtyard door rang, and Pei Xiu opened the door again before she sat down. It was Aunt Zhou: ''Is my little grandson here with you? You don't know how to go back after dinner, so let me find it easily. \'\'
''He's here, he's eating inside, he's still a child, and it's normal to be playful, so my aunt comes in and sits. '' Pei Xiu said with a smile.
''This child is getting wilder, running like crazy all day long, waiting for the oil lamp to do his homework at night. It's a loss that his grandfather went to town to visit friends and was not at home these two days. Now that it's done, I won't go back to eat after cooking, why would I be embarrassed to come to your house to eat? Whose food is not short. '' Aunt Zhou thought a lot, and became more and more embarrassed. She went in and patted the back of Zhou Yiyi's head. '' Hurry up to eat and go home, say thank you to your uncle and aunt, and become more and more unruly. ''
''My aunt is too outgoing, the children play well, what is there to save a meal, how much a child can eat, we asked him to stay for dinner, don't blame him. Let him finish the meal well, or the aunt will stay and eat, anyway, Master Zhou is not at home. '' Pei Xiu said that she was going to go to the kitchen to fry a few more egg pancakes.
Aunt Zhou hurried to stop her, ''Zhou Cheng wife, what are you doing? I'm blushing when I'm not ashamed. I'm so big, how can I go to your house for dinner without my face and skin? Don't be too busy. ''
Zhou Yi drank the porridge in three or two mouthfuls, stuffed the cake in his mouth and left the table, ''Thank you, uncle, aunt, I'm full, I'll come back tomorrow to play with Hammer and the others. '' Aunt Zhou took Zhou Yi's hand and said goodbye to the couple. Counting Zhou Yi while walking.
Zhou Cheng didn't say a word. He was surprised that Pei Xiu could still stay with Aunt Zhou for dinner, and gave her a look.
Pei Xiu knew that Zhou Cheng was looking at her, and she had to get used to her changes. She couldn't be someone else forever, she wanted to be herself. She ignored Zhou Cheng's gaze and said: ''I thought about it today. If I want to choose my son's name, the eldest is called Zhou Yong, the second is Zhou Sheng, and the third is Zhou Heng. What do you think? ''
''Well, that's fine. '' Zhou Cheng nodded, he didn't have any opinion, he could call it whatever he wanted, but he just felt that Pei Xiu was more and more impressive to him.
When a few children heard their names, they were very concerned. The underage children in the village usually had a nickname, and they would not give a big name until about fifteen, which meant that the child had grown into an adult. Or go to school, the master at home or school will give you a big name.
Several children are very happy, they feel that they are adults.
''Daddy, my name is Zhou Yong. '' The boss pretended to cough, and slapped Zhou Chengpei's embroidered clothes with his hands in a funny way.
''My father and mother, my name is Zhou Sheng (Zhou Heng)'' The two brothers also imitated their elder brother.
Zhou Shan stretched out his hand and scratched his head, hesitating whether he wanted to follow suit, but Pei Xiu said to them: \'\'Don't make trouble, sit down to eat, and after eating, go to feed the chickens and rabbits. '' Now I have a few more rabbits at home, and I have arranged for them to do the work, and the boys are very happy to do it.
Pei Xiu didn't tell them that she would send them to school after the new year, and she hasn't decided how to send them. It is also necessary to see if the vegetables in the house can be sold at a high price in winter, and I don't know if Master Zhou has decided to run a school, so that it can be arranged.
After the children finished their work, they ran out like the wind and announced their names to their friends. The children in the whole village went home and clamored for their names, and they didn't know whether they were beaten or not.
Pei Xiu thought that she had to go to town in a few days~www.~ It was getting colder and colder, and the flour at home was about to run out. Cats have everything ready for the winter.
The village is relatively close to the town, so there is no need to get up very early. Pei Xiu still wakes up at the usual time.
Zhou Cheng was already waiting at the door, when the sister-in-law Chunhua next door saw it, she pouted and mumbled a few words. She was lucky to have no work and meat to eat. She had new clothes to wear. When Brother Wang heard it, he scolded him a few times.' 'What are you mumbling about, don't hurry up, you lazy mother-in-law dawdled to this point, hurry up. '' Sister-in-law Chunhua quickly closed her mouth and followed his man to pick up firewood.
Zhou Cheng's ear is good, he can hear it clearly, and he doesn't worry about it, his daughter-in-law hurts himself. He can do anything with rough skin and thick flesh, and he doesn't need his wife to do anything. Just take care of himself and a few children.
It took a quarter of an hour for Pei Xiu to go out. ''How long have you been waiting, how many children? ''
He didn't say how long he had to wait.'' He went out to play after dinner, and the food was still hot in the pot. Would you like to eat some? ''
''I will go to town to eat wonton stew with my stomach saved. I ate wonton stew from a stall some time ago, and it was delicious. We will eat it together later. '' Pei Xiu was afraid that Zhou Cheng would wait too long and not eat, so she would go to town to eat later, she was not afraid that Zhou Cheng would know that she was spending money.
Zhou Cheng didn't mind either, he knew that she would have a sense of proportion.
After walking for an hour, he arrived in town. Pei Xiu was really hungry. He came out without eating in the morning. After walking such a long mountain road, his stomach growled with hunger, so he hurriedly went to find the wonton. Stew the stall, ordered two bowls, added green onions and coriander, the store is very sincere, and the fillings are full. All of them are stewed with big meat ravioli, and the warm bowl goes into the stomach, and the whole person feels alive.
