Chapter 59: Earning Money by Doing Private Work
The family has paid a lot for Niu Dongxiang to study, and she can't repay these efforts for the time being, so she can only wait for the future.
Niu Dongxiang has already determined the path of changing her fate through studying, and she made up her mind: "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely be admitted to Tsinghua University, and I will earn a lot of money to honor you when I graduate in the future...... Kindness...... And Dad. ”
Although Niu Dongxiang has a lot of opinions about her father, she can also understand her father's difficulties. Every time I quarrel with my father over tuition and miscellaneous fees, my father always thunders and rains, and when the family has no money, my father pulls down his face and goes to others to borrow it, who calls him the head of the family?
Since Niu Dongxiang understands her father's difficulties, why do she still quarrel with her father? This is mainly to show an attitude of never giving in, she is worried that as long as she behaves a little weaker, she will lose the opportunity to study, and she is also forced to say it.
The more Niu Xiaoqiang looked at it, the more unpleasant it became, he was just about to tell the matter of going out with Fang Dongping to make extra money in public, so that everyone could be happy, but he didn't expect the eldest sister Niu Chunxiang to suddenly turn her head to look at him: "Little brother, what are you doing? It's about to become a flower-faced cat, go, sister will give you bath water." ”
Niu Xiaoqiang had to swallow the unspoken words back into his stomach.
Niu Chunxiang did not leave after making the bath water, but took the initiative to pick up the towel for the bath and smiled at Niu Xiaoqiang: "Little brother, sister will help you rub it." ”
Niu Xiaoqiang immediately lifted his pants when he heard this, and said with an embarrassed face: "Sister, you helped me take a bath when I was a child, but now I'm almost sixteen, this ...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?"
Niu Chunxiang said with a smile: "I just want to help you rub your back, where do you want to go?"
Niu Xiaoqiang breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, that's okay." ”
Niu Chunxiang said a lot tonight, she helped her brother wipe his back, while talking about the past time, Niu Xiaoqiang felt a little wrong after listening to it for a while, and couldn't help but interject: "Sister, do you have something on your mind?"
Niu Chunxiang gently touched Niu Xiaoqiang's head and said with a smile: "My stupid brother has really grown up, and he can actually see that my sister has something on his mind." ”
After laughing, Niu Chunxiang couldn't stop sighing, and it didn't take much effort for her eyes to redden.
Niu Xiaoqiang was surprised: "Sister, what's wrong with you? You were fine just now, why did you suddenly cry?"
Niu Chunxiang usually doesn't talk much, and rarely communicates with people, she is very much like her mother Sun Mei, always working hard and never caring about anything.
Listening to her younger brother's words at this moment, Niu Chunxiang could no longer suppress her inner emotions, and covered her face and cried.
Niu Xiaoqiang was at a loss and said: "Sister, tell me if you have anything to say, I'm a fool, I can't remember what you said." ”
"Little brother, my sister has decided, tomorrow I will let my father and mother agree to the proposal of the lame man's family, if I get married, I will ...... in the future Even if it's someone else...... Sister can't bear you......"
Niu Xiaoqiang was struck by lightning, and was stunned for a long time before asking: "Sister, doesn't my father and mother disagree with this family business?
Niu Xiaoqiang suddenly realized something in the middle of his words, he grabbed the eldest sister's arm tightly, and asked, "Did you take the initiative to agree to this family affair for the bride price of the Wang lame family?"
Niu Chunxiang whimpered and did not speak, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
Niu Xiaoqiang said angrily: "Sister, you don't have to marry that lazy guy, where is he not worthy of you?" As for the money, I have already discussed it with my master, and I will go out with him tomorrow to pick up private work to earn extra money, and I can earn twenty or thirty yuan during the summer vacation, plus the salaries of the second and third sisters, the fourth sister's travel expenses to BJ are definitely enough, and the more money can buy her a few new clothes, so that our family not only does not need to sell pigs and cattle, but also does not need to sell daughters, as for other expenses during college, take your time in the future, anyway, I am absolutely confident that I can support the fourth sister after finishing college. ”
Niu Chunxiang raised her head when she heard this, and her big eyes full of tears showed surprise: "Little brother, at such a young age, people are willing to ask you to work?"
In order to convince the eldest sister, Niu Xiaoqiang told the result of his discussion with Fang Dongping, Niu Chunxiang finally turned from sadness to joy, her bright big eyes smiled into a crooked crescent, "The little brother is really powerful, he is better than your brother to the sky!"
Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and scratched his head: "I've grown up, I should help my family share the difficulties." ”
Niu Xiaoqiang said this: "Sister, you should also find a mother-in-law, as long as there is a suitable one, you can marry, there is no need to sacrifice your happiness in order to take care of the family, but you had better wait for a year to get married, because at that time, I should be able to help you prepare a rich dowry, so as to save the man's family from disliking you." ”
Niu Chunxiang knocked on Niu Xiaoqiang's head angrily and funny: "What nonsense are you talking about, what does my wedding dowry have to do with you, do you need to worry about your youngest brother? ”
Niu Xiaoqiang smirked and touched his head: "We are all a family, what do you say, isn't the money I earn also the family's money?"
Niu Chunxiang had just avoided the bad luck of marrying a lazy lame man, and she was in a good mood, she smiled coquettishly: "Okay, okay, whatever you say, sister will wait for you for a year and see how much dowry you can prepare for your sister." ”
After Niu Chunxiang finished speaking, she handed the towel to Niu Xiaoqiang, turned around and walked out.
Niu Xiaoqiang looked at the back of the eldest sister, and couldn't help muttering: "Where is the son of Wang lame worthy of my eldest sister? Don't think about it in the next life, hum!"
After he took a shower, he found his father and wanted to talk to him about going to earn extra money.
Niu Dazhuang was squatting under the big tree and smoking. At the beginning, he smoked a pack of Xinhua brand cigarettes, which was later changed to an eight-cent pack of economic brand cigarettes, and now, Niu Dazhuang smokes dry tobacco. From the drop in the grade of cigarettes, you can see the changes in the economic situation of Lao Niu's family.
Niu Xiaoqiang walked to his father's side and whispered, "Dad, there is something I want to tell you." ”
Niu Dazhuang pinched the tobacco leaves, and said in a muffled voice: "If you have something to say, let it go quickly." ”
"What, I've already told Grandpa Fang that I'm going to go out with him tomorrow to do private work and earn money, what do you think ......?"
For the change of his stupid son, Niu Dazhuang is in his eyes, although he doesn't think that this stupid son can have much success in the future, but it is not a bad thing for his son to become more sensible after all, so Niu Dazhuang is actually very happy in his heart.
At this moment, hearing Niu Xiaoqiang say that he was going out to do private work, Niu Dazhuang looked a little stunned: "What do you know?
