Chapter 4376 Hard work for a lifetime
"Father Qing'er, you have an idea. You have made the decision for us, Qing'er, and Lan'er," said Sun.
"Everyone can see Qing'er's contribution to Lao Yang's family. As for Lan'er, she and Ahao are far away in Xiushui Town. At first, Lan'er could still work in a tofu shop to supplement the family income."
"Now that Lan'er is pregnant with her second child, Ah Hao loves Lan'er very much and is reluctant to ask her to work. The burden of supporting the family falls entirely on Ah Hao alone."
"When Lan'er gives birth to her second baby, she will have another mouth to eat. No matter what, Lan'er will have to bring her second baby to two or three years old before she can work in the tofu shop. Life is not easy for their small family."
"Lan'er and Ahao are fighting for their best, and no matter how hard it is, they won't ask their parents to sponsor them. Now, when it comes to Yongxian, naturally they can't let Lan'er and the others sponsor it. It doesn't make sense." said Sun.
.
Yang Huazhong nodded, "Ms. Qing'er, you are right, we want to go together."
Yang Ruoqing said, "Dad, let's put it this way, you and my fifth uncle have the heaviest burden in this wave of sponsorship events!"
Yang Huazhong smiled and said, "Someone has to carry the heavy burden. Your eldest and second uncle are gone, and your father is the oldest among the second generation. It is not unusual at all to carry the heavy burden."
"Besides, with our family's current conditions, it's still okay to send them a hundred catties of grain and fifty catties of wheat flour a year."
"Yongxian and Meiying also knew it well. When the matter was finalized, Yongxian and the others were about to kowtow to us, but we stopped them."
"As long as he studies hard, even if he just gets a job in the future, it will be a decent thing for our old Yang family!"
When the man said these words, his eyes shone with a strange light.
As a member of the Lao Yang family, he still hopes from the bottom of his heart that all the children in the family will succeed!
"Mom, lunch is already cooked. Do you think we should serve the food now?" Xiaohua asked suddenly.
Mrs. Sun came back to her senses and found that the food was indeed ready.
"Then let's do it now, Feng'er is probably hungry," said Sun.
Then he said to Yang Huazhong, "Dad Qing'er, it's time to eat at home, why don't you add a few more bites at home?"
Yang Huazhong waved his hand, "I can't add more. You guys eat. I'll go to Lao Wu's place to talk about something and I'll be back soon."
After saying these words, Yang Huazhong left in a hurry.
Yang Ruoqing glanced at the door of the kitchen and was convinced that Yang Huazhong had really gone to the front yard. She just retracted her head and said to Sun and Xiaohua, "My father has really spent his whole life for the uncle and cousin of the eldest house."
It’s been a lifetime of hard work.”
"To be honest, I don't have any objections to my cousin. I just feel that my father is really partial. He only sees the shortages of his first cousin and cannot see the difficulties of other people."
"I won't talk about the second brother and the third brother. The second brother and the eighth sister owed foreign debts to build a new house. The second brother also raised their three mothers by himself, and also took care of the food rations of the aunt and Fu'er."
"Third brother is also raising a family of four by himself. Third sister-in-law's daughter is less than a hundred days old. A family of four is crowded into one room. My father cannot see this."
Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Xiao Hua said, "So, among these sponsors, our family and my fifth uncle are the more generous ones."
"It is true that our family is relatively wealthy, but the situation of Fifth Uncle and his friends is actually not as good as what we have seen." Yang Ruoqing said.
"Yes, Uncle Wu has indeed made some money helping me manage the restaurant these years. Otherwise, it would be impossible to build a new house."
"Uncle Wu and the others didn't borrow any foreign debt to build their new house. They relied on themselves inside and out, so the savings of the past few years probably cost a fortune to build this house!"
"Aside from taking care of the vegetable garden at home and raising some chickens, ducks and geese, the fifth aunt has no other income. Dabao is studying in an academy in Qing'an County."
"The academies in Qing'an County are more expensive in all aspects than those in the county and town. As for Dabao, everything else is good, he is well-behaved and honest, but he doesn't seem to have much talent in studying. After studying for so many years, he still has no talent.
A child."
"Besides, Dabao will be almost 16 after the Chinese New Year, and he will marry his wife in two or three years."
"Uncle Wu is working hard to make money now just to earn the money for the bride price for Dabao. When he has earned enough money for the bride price and the new daughter-in-law comes into the house, it will be Mianmian's turn to get married."
"Although the fifth uncle treats Dabao as his own son, Mianmian is his real flesh and blood. When his only biological daughter gets married, the fifth uncle must not be vague about the dowry, otherwise he is afraid that Mianmian will be looked down upon in her husband's family, so he has to
Working hard to make money."
"When Mianmian is finally married off, Dabao will probably have a grandchild, and Mianmian will have a grandson too. The addition of children to the family one after another in recent years, although it is a happy event, is also a burden."
"If Dabao works hard, he can take over the burden from the fifth uncle and share some of it. The fifth uncle can also take some time off earlier and return to the village to enjoy the blessings with the fifth uncle."
"If Dabao fails to live up to expectations and marries a wife who is not virtuous, then my fifth uncle and five aunts will be really pitiful. My fifth uncle works as a cow and horse outside to earn money to support the family, while my fifth aunt works as a cow and horse at home, washing clothes and cooking for them.
It makes me feel distressed just thinking about raising a child, but as for my father, I only saw my fifth uncle working as a shopkeeper in a restaurant in Qing'an County. He received four taels of silver every month, and couldn't see anything else. It's really
What a bias!"
At this point, Yang Ruoqing could no longer complain.
Sun and Xiaohua also had shocked faces.
Sun said, "If it hadn't been for Qing'er's suggestion, I wouldn't have thought of this level. Hey, this Dabao's education is really... I remember that he went to elementary school with Xiao An."
"Xiao An went to elementary school at the age of seven. Dabao, who is two years younger than Xiao An, went to elementary school at the age of five. Now, eleven years have passed, and he has not even passed the exam. This shows that this child has no academic luck in this area...
…”
Regarding Sun's words, Yang Ruoqing could only roll her eyes secretly.
Let’s just say that Dabao’s brain is stupid and not enlightened when he studies. He has to say that he has no ‘study movement’, eh...
"Sister, according to what you said, how can Uncle Wu's family reverse this situation?" Xiaohua asked.
Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment, "I have to turn around when I hit the wall. If I were the fifth uncle and the fifth aunt, I would die and give Dabao another chance this year. If spring starts and I still fail to pass the scholar exam, I might as well follow my fifth uncle to a restaurant to learn how to play."
Taking care of business."
"If it's later and I waste my good years in school, I won't be able to learn how to run a business, and I might just be a waiter!"
"Because Uncle Wu is the shopkeeper, I can take care of him and give him a monthly payment of four taels of silver. This is also in line with the general market situation in Qing'an County, and there won't be much difference, but I can't give him a
The waiter is also paid four taels of silver, right? When working in a restaurant, you have to follow the rules. Just do what you should do. Even if I am the boss, I have to set an example and abide by the rules. Otherwise, other people below will not accept it.
Naturally, the restaurant will not be able to operate normally."
