Tianbao saw his two sisters-in-law so sad, and suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier again. After all, he still had several nephews to support him in their studies.
She is too young now to reveal many of her thoughts, but she feels uncomfortable holding them in.
Tianbao struggled out of the old man's arms, put the little fox on the kang, twisted around and ran towards the two sisters-in-law. Fortunately, they both leaned on the edge of the kang and arrived in a few steps.
"Don't cry, sell radishes, go to school, I can afford it!" I said this last sentence with force, trying to show my determination to support myself.
The eyes of the two sisters-in-law became even redder, and they silently wiped away tears, remembering the kindness of their sister-in-law in their hearts. Even if they didn't support her, they would be satisfied with this sentence.
Tianbao's sensibleness was beyond the expectations of Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu. Mr. Gu decided to go to the county town early the next morning to sell the carrots and arrange for Xiao Yier and the others to enter a private school as soon as possible.
Stone Village covers a large area, but its location is too remote. It is adjacent to several hills. The largest hill is the mountain behind their village.
The village is too poor to run a private school, and none of the children in the village have received enlightenment. The few families who have gone to school have basically moved away from Stone Village.
If Xiao Xiaoer and others want to go to private school, the only feasible way is to go to the county town.
After finalizing the decision, the family hurriedly boiled water and cooked. My sister-in-law was still as dirty as a clay figurine.
After three meals, Tianbao felt extremely sleepy. He put his little hands around Old Mrs. Gu's neck and fell asleep in a daze.
Mr. Gu wanted to talk to Mrs. Gu. He walked up to Mrs. Gu and reached out to take the sleeping Tianbao and put it on the kang bed.
"I originally thought about telling my boss in a few days that Xiao Yi and the others should go to private school to study, but I didn't expect..." My three-year-old daughter actually went up the mountain to pull ginseng!
He had never thought of this, and now that he thought about it, he felt scared.
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she frowned and glared at Mr. Gu with disapproval in her eyes.
Mr. Gu was a little confused and didn't know what he said wrong.
"You still have the nerve to say that? If you hadn't proposed to be diligent and thrifty, would our family be in this situation?"
She became angry when she thought of this.
Old Mrs. Gu was originally a lady from an official family. She had been living in fine clothes and food since she was a child. Although she was not wealthy, she had never lacked anything.
She didn't marry Mr. Gu for any reason. What attracted her to him at first was his unrestrained energy, but what about now? Only angry.
Who has a lot of money but doesn't have a horde of slaves? But what about them? He is also wealthy, but lives in a mud hut and thatched hut. He even claims to train his children to learn to be diligent and thrifty.
If it weren't for this family, the second child would not go out to do business without saying a word. There has been no news from him until now. Every time she thinks about it, she blames herself extremely.
If I had told my second son and the others about the family situation earlier, would the whole family be in order now?
Mr. Gu knew he was in the wrong, so he said nothing and sat blankly on the edge of the kang bed.
He knew what Mrs. Gu was talking about, but he still had trouble saying it.
"I didn't think about it either..."
"I know you didn't think about it, but do you plan to spend your whole life like this? Just because you are fighting with others, you would rather live in poverty? You are really not even as good as a sweet baby!"
Old Mrs. Gu was quite a bit embarrassed. The meaning of dividing hatred into steel is that she would not talk about Mr. Gu's ridiculous things in the early years. If it weren't for today's Tianbao incident, she felt that she would hold it in for the rest of her life.
"Boss, let's not talk about the second and third children for now. We will talk about them later when the second brother comes back. The fourth and seventh children will leave soon, so there is nothing to worry about. The fifth child is engaged, the sixth child is not young anymore, and there are a bunch of brats. All of them need to be considered.
"I have thought about it. It is time for my family to make money. In the future, I plan to make the family better and better in the name of Tianbao." She only hoped that a hundred years later, these brothers and sisters could take care of Tianbao more.
Mr. Gu was speechless. He just said yes and then said nothing.
After all, the last words Mrs. Gu said were exactly what he wanted to say.
After Mrs. Gu gave some more instructions, she let Mr. Gu go.
In a blink of an eye, the day came to enter the county town.
Tianbao got up early, folded all the quilts on the bed, and then turned his attention to Mr. Gu.
A pair of big wet eyes were staring at Mr. Gu, with longing in his eyes, and his mouth was slightly pursed, as if protesting why he didn't take her with him?
Mr. Gu ignored Tianbao's eyes and felt that he had not finished his work all morning. When he was about to leave with a small backpack, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten something.
A slap on the forehead.
He has forgotten his daughter!
Mr. Gu hurriedly ran into Tianbao's room, and happened to see Tianbao turn around and face him with his butt sticking out.
Mr. Gu was so anxious that he was sweating. He wanted to comfort his daughter, but he was also worried that the ox cart at the entrance of the village had left. So he picked up the sweet treasure, held it in his arm, and ran away under the sharp eyes of Mrs. Gu.
"Dad! Slow down, don't hurt my sister-in-law!" The wife's heart melted when she saw the aggrieved look in her sister-in-law's eyes.
Why is my sister-in-law so cute?
Mr. Gu hurriedly hurriedly and slowly stopped the bullock cart when it was about to leave.
Along the way, the villagers of Shitou Village were all surprised. They saw a handsome old man making atonement to a three-year-old girl, apologizing one by one, and saying that he would not dare to do it next time.
After entering the county town, Tianbao's injured heart was finally healed. After calming down, she looked down on her current childish appearance, but there was still a hint of sweetness in her heart, which she had never enjoyed before. have to.
God promised her another life where she could do whatever she wanted without any scruples.
Mr. Gu took Tianbao to a medical clinic in the town. The store was not big. There was only one doctor sitting in the hall, a long counter, behind which stood a row of Chinese medicine cabinets, and a small doctor who was busy grabbing medicine. Si.
"Brother Li."
Mr. Gu walked in and greeted the doctor with a slight nod.
Doctor Li looked quite young, with a few strands of white hair mixed in with his black hair, and a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but he had no beard.
When Dr. Li heard the familiar voice, he quickly stood up and looked at the person. His eyes moved to the little man in his arms, with a bit of surprise in his eyes.
"Brother Gu, this must be the little boy born to his younger brother and sister!" The tone was very sure, he was the one who diagnosed the child.
"Tianbao, this is Uncle Li, called uncle." Mr. Gu pointed at Dr. Li and said to Tianbao in his arms.
Tianbao straightened up, bowed slightly to Doctor Li, with a cute smile on his face, and said in a sweet voice: "Hello, Uncle Li."
