Zhou Jin patted him on the head and said, "You just want to play all day long. If you don't study and you don't make a living, I will send you home to farm."
The child burst into tears, rubbed his head and said, "I don't like studying, I like farming."
Qian pulled the child over and glared at Zhou Jin, "Okay, why are you beating the child?"
She touched the child's head soothingly and said to him gently: "If you don't want to go to school, don't go to school. Tomorrow I will ask your third uncle to take you to the fields to farm."
The child responded happily.
Zhou Jin looked at this silly child without saying anything.
The child finally came back crying all the way from the fields, but he had promised to farm, so he had to farm. Qian still asked Zhou Lang to carry him to the fields the next day.
The child couldn't stop crying. This was completely different from the land he farmed in the capital.
When they were in the capital, the academy had a holiday when the farming season was busy, and they had to work in the fields with their families, but they just did light work such as picking rice ears, handing over seedlings, or pulling weeds. Like this, they hoeed the ground directly under the bright sun and went to the fields. The rice transplanters never did it once...
The child could only cry to Lao Zhou, "Zuzu..."
Lao Zhoutou looked at him lovingly and expressed that he was helpless, "I have to listen to your ancestors."
After experiencing a more difficult life, he no longer feels that studying is hard. If so, it must be because he is not the material for studying, so he should farm or do other things.
Mr. Qian never forces every child to study. After all, some people are smart and some are stupid. This is what they are born with. It is given by their parents and cannot be forced.
Why should we force our children to change things that even Master Tianzun can't change?
Intelligence cannot be changed, only laziness can, such as Zhou Jin.
Qian glanced at Zhou Jin, who was leaning on a lounge chair and sunbathing next to him. Although he was very old, with wrinkles on his face and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes when he smiled, he was still better-looking than other old men.
Looking back on her life, Qian did not regret her original choice, even when the Zhou family was in the most difficult situation and she was suffering the most, she did not regret it either.
She chose Zhou Jin herself. The most important thing at the beginning was that he had a really good-looking face.
He is cowardly but also loyal. Before deciding to marry him, Mrs. Qian certainly knew that he was lazy and greedy. He was favored at home and was not very good at work.
But she doesn't think it's a problem, she just doesn't know how to teach slowly. If it doesn't work, she will still be there.
Laziness can be corrected, but face can't be corrected. It's a natural thing.
Although after getting married, she found that her life did not go as she imagined, but she did not feel very miserable.
Although he was lazy, he also knew how to say nice things to her. He knew that she was suffering from swollen legs and feet during pregnancy, so he heated her a basin of hot water to soak her feet and massage her legs every night.
Even her mother-in-law has never been treated like this.
It was also because of these little details that she never regretted it.
Later, when Zhou Yin was born, he was no longer the favorite of the old Zhou family. The three sensible people in the family pressured him to go to work. Although he kept mumbling, he still went.
He was a slow learner, and it was really hard to get rid of the laziness in his bones. She hated him so much at the time, but looking back later, she regretted it a little.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with him being lazy. He turned out to be so diligent, but she only felt sad and distressed.
When people get old, they want to leave their fallen leaves and return to their roots. They also tend to think of things in their youth. The same goes for Lao Zhoutou.
Just as Qian was looking at him in a daze, he was also talking about the past, "...it happened so many years ago. They remember it better than me. How could I be so lazy back then?"
Lao Zhoutou, who was mentioned about the old things outside, came back angrily and decided not to play with those old men and ladies.
Mr. Qian withdrew his gaze and said nonchalantly: "They didn't love their wives much when they were young. They have suffered the same hardships that I have endured. Can't you just go back and retort?"
When Lao Zhou thought about it carefully, it was true that the Qian family suffered a lot with him, but their daughter-in-law also suffered a lot from following them.
So he became energetic, turned around and went out again.
Qian shook his head and continued to lean on the lounge chair and bask in the sun.
Zhou Dalang came back from the vegetable field and saw his mother alone in the yard again, so he asked, "Dad went to the entrance of the village again?"
Mr. Qian responded, "You can go and pick me up later when we have dinner."
Zhou Dalang has been following Lao Zhoutou and the Qian family all these years. As the eldest son of the eldest son, he is basically wherever his parents are.
When they lived in the capital, he took care of Zhou Man's land in the capital; when they returned to their hometown, he stayed with them for a while.
Now Lao Zhoutou and Mr. Qian wanted to return to their roots, so they moved back to Qili Village. The couple also moved back with their young grandson.
In the eyes of the villagers in Qili Village, he is a very filial and promising person. His two sons and one daughter-in-law have become government officials. I heard that the eldest granddaughter and grandson are also very good at studying and are about to take the official examination.
Therefore, the old people like to see Zhou Dalang very much. Every time they see him, they talk to each other for a long time.
Zhou Dalang is not young anymore, and he is willing to stand and listen to his peers who are about the same age as his father.
Qili Village was very lively because of the return of Lao Zhoutou and the others.
Within a few days, someone encouraged Lao Zhoutou to build a house, "You are now a wealthy family, why don't you build a big yard like Mr. Bai and others? That yard is within a yard, with one floor on top of the other. How beautiful it is."
"
"Yes, yes, Manbao and the others will have face when they come back to visit relatives in the future."
Old Zhou was very excited and ran back to find Mr. Qian, "How about we build a house."
Qian said: "It's too much trouble. Where can we get the homestead now?"
"Right here..."
"No, the good house has been taken away. The children come back just to see the house they lived in before. When they come back, they don't even have a house, so what's the point?" Qian said: "And now there are only two people at home besides us.
The boss, the second, and the third, they are not young anymore, why do you have to torment them?"
Old Zhoutou: "Then wait until the fourth child comes back and let him repair it?"
Mr. Qian paused for a moment and asked, "With so many of us, do we still have to make room for him to build a house?"
Lao Zhoutou was so beaten by Qian that he gave up on this matter, but he refused to admit defeat in front of outsiders, so when they asked about it again outside, he said with a look of disgust: "I went back to straighten it out.
I found that there were too many things. The bed in my house was made for us by my second brother who picked a good tree. I slept very well. If I want to repair the yard, I have to move the bed. The bed has to be moved out, not to mention the boss, the third and the fourth.
I have to move all the things that I received from my family, including our Manbao. She has prepared a lot of things for me when I came back this time, and they are all piled up in the house. How much work will it take to move them all out now?
."
He said with a sad face: "It's too troublesome, forget it."
All the old men and women: "..."
