"Big brother should have someone by his side. He doesn't know the way. If he can have someone he trusts with him, we can feel more at ease wherever he goes."
Yan Laoer thought about it and said: "Mr. Kang is not an ordinary person. His two sons need to take a closer look at our family's current conditions. If we are determined to find a good one, they are still not happy. From those who have committed crimes,
It’s a good idea to choose among people. I have been an official before, so my knowledge is not bad. I will definitely be able to copy and write. My eldest brother will take the exam next year, and then he will have to go to Beijing. If he passes the exam this way, someone familiar with the school will save the money.
Few things.
I have seen the world and suffered many misfortunes. If I can really be down-to-earth, I will definitely not treat me badly. I am afraid that my heart will be high and I will not be able to let go of the past...
As for me, forget it, I have nothing to do."
Yan Laoer wondered what he could do if he found someone to follow him, whether it could help him copy books or help him with homework. To hire someone, you have to pay for the work and provide food and accommodation, and you have to give something to others during the holidays...
How do you calculate and lose?
"Dad, I'm with you!" Yan Yu ran in and climbed up on the kang using both hands and feet. "Dad, I will be your bookboy. I don't need to pay you monthly. You can pay me on a daily basis. You can give me a day's pay for every day I work. How about that?"
Sample?"
Yan Laoer smiled and said, "I can't afford you.
Now you are the one who owns a shop, and our whole family can’t even afford your shop.”
"Hehe!" Yan Yu said with a smile: "I have spent all my money on buying a shop. Dad, I think you should bring a book boy to help you with some trivial things. If you don't want your daughter to suffer, I will recommend a few people to you.
How's it going?"
"Who do you want to recommend?" Yan Laoer was curious.
"Big Iron Brother, Second Iron Brother, Third Iron Brother, Big Gouzi Brother, Big Brother Erlang from the Hu family, Big Dragon Brother from the Wang family, Big Tiger brother, the brothers from the Song family are also pretty good, and there are also boys from the Second Uncle Sun's family..."
Yan Yu's little mouth was so loud that she almost counted all the half-grown boys in the village.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Yan Laoer quickly stopped: "Even if your father is looking for a book boy, he will only find one. Your choice range is too large."
Yan Yu came over and gently kneaded her father's shoulders: "Dad, you see you have a narrow-minded mind. If you choose someone from here, you will naturally be confused about which one to choose and which one should not be used. Please open your mind.
Just don’t use it anymore.”
"Use them all?"
"That's right! Positions are fixed, but people can be mobile."
"Is this okay?"
"Okay, why not? Think about it, Dad, this is a good opportunity to go to the government office to see the world. Don't just take one with you at a time. Take a few more with you. It's okay to follow the uncle, it's okay to follow you. If not, follow the eldest brother.
It’s okay to be around. These brothers are not young anymore. They work like adults in the village. You can see them when I go out this time. They can shoot arrows and use sticks. They can do a lot of serious things. Take turns.
It will be good for them to go there for ten days at a time and meet more people and experience things."
Seeing her father's move, Yan Yu added, "It's only for these few months. Just wait until you find a suitable one and then change it for them."
Yan Laoer said: "Okay, then you can talk to them and see who is willing to go with me." They are all good boys who know the basics. They are all old enough here at this age, so he can feel relieved to take them out.
"Dad, it's best for you to talk about this matter. Hehe, we'll talk about it after we've discussed how to divide the cattle and sheep." Yan Yu was wary. If she came forward, she wouldn't be able to single out the richest men in the village.
, the younger children would not be happy. She is the leader of the Boy Scouts, so naturally she has to think more.
Yan Laoer straightened his expression: "We have gained a lot this time. Fortunately, no one was injured. We will divide the cattle, sheep and things equally, and everyone will have a good year."
Tomorrow, dad will go to Huju. First, he will discuss with Mr. Xue Qi to get an accurate estimate, and second, he will talk to your master about the people we rescued."
"You brought someone back? Who is it?" Li Xuemei asked in surprise.
Yan Laoer quickly told the person's origin.
Li Xuemei was startled. She just stood at the entrance of the courtyard and took a look outside. There were herds of cattle and sheep, and several village elders were shouting loudly. She really didn't see any outsiders entering the village.
"What are your plans for these people?" she asked her daughter.
Yan Yu pursed her lips. Along the way, she talked to them frequently and kept thinking about where they were going.
After much deliberation, Xiaoan Village was the most suitable place for them to settle down.
The folk customs are simple and simple. They all fled from famine and have suffered hardships and punishments, so they are more tolerant of these poor ladies and their children.
Yan Yu looked at her father and mother's faces and whispered: "We have these cows and sheep, and we have no experience raising them. Those ladies are more or less capable, and those children, how about helping us herd the cows and sheep?"
The couple looked at each other.
Yan Laoer was very happy: "How come you arrange errands for your child when he is so young?"
"They're not too young. The older one is five or six years old, about the same as me." Yan Yu said.
The children of the poor have become masters early, and these children have become sensible earlier. Along the way, they were more reserved at the beginning, but gradually, every time they stopped to rest, they would work with their mothers, watching the sheep and feeding them fodder.
I can also milk goats...
On the way back, no one looked for water, so the squeezed goat milk was enough to quench their thirst.
"Five or six years old, that is to say, some have been kidnapped for six or seven years..." Li Xuemei looked out the window. The noisy excitement in the village had not subsided. She vaguely heard the children, her aunt and several people in the village.
The lady is talking, her voice is hearty and bright.
"Talk to the people in the village." Li Xuemei suddenly said: "Our village is a big place, and there are so many wastelands around it that even a car can't cover. Even if they can't plant much land, as long as people are diligent, it shouldn't be difficult to support themselves and their children.
"
Both the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law have this intention, so Yan Laoer naturally doesn't hesitate.
The two men ate breakfast in a hurry and fell asleep.
The village gradually became quieter. After walking all night, everyone who came back was tired.
…
"Sister, has your brother-in-law gone to bed?" Li Xuemei walked softly to Cui's house.
Mrs. Cui raised her head and saw that it was her. She narrowed her eyes with a smile, nodded and motioned for her to come to the kitchen.
"Wait a minute, I'll give you a little height." Mrs. Cui quickly went back to the house, got a straw mat, and put it on the small stool.
Li Xuemei slowly sat down, stretched her legs forward, and breathed, she felt comfortable.
"You are really looking for the right lady Rong. She knows how to take care of people. Let's see how well she can raise you. My mother always said that this woman's belly is big or small. It is best if she is not pregnant."
Mrs. Cui babbled: "You are not stupid, you move around a lot, and this is your second child. I think it will be a good birth."
My second brother and the youngest are also asleep? My dog and his father are also asleep. They have been walking all night. Why do they have to rush to this day? Sleep now. If they still can't sleep at night, I will wake them up after noon.
, to save you from taking a nap...
Oops, have you seen the cattle and sheep? There are so many of them, so you are so surprised to see them.
Your brother-in-law has become successful this time, and he even brought back a wolf skin, saying that he would make leggings for his father-in-law, which made my father so happy that his teeth were exposed..."
