Chapter 27 27
Separated by a wall, Mingjing and Minghao helped Sister-in-law Gui clean up the small things that were moved. Following the Wang family, the family and villagers all came with baskets to deliver things such as eggs, rice, flour, oil, fish and shrimp.
Not much, after all, there are a lot of taxes and miscellaneous taxes nowadays, and the farmer's life is difficult. But it's more or less a mind. As for the fish and shrimp, they were caught in the clear stream around the village, and they were very fat, and they were all raised in pots. This is also the origin of the name of Cheonggye Village.
There were the fifth and seventh uncles who helped that day, as well as several other families who also hung the fields in the name of the cheap father, and the neighbors next to them all came.
Mingjing thanked him one by one and kept it in his heart, and only when he was gone did he whisper to his younger brother: "Oh, this is Shengmien, Doumien!" ”
Ming Hao looked at the newly built wall and nodded vigorously, "Hmm." ”
Not long after, Uncle Wang drove the ox cart over and brought a few baskets from the ox cart in.
"It's all leftovers from noon. said it was leftovers, but in fact, they hadn't been served yet. In the evening, you can eat it when it is hot, and you will save yourself any more trouble. Before, Sister-in-law Gui said that it was best to have some rapeseeds, and at this time, I also brought all the rapeseeds planted by Energy. ”
Mingjing stepped forward and took the basket, "Uncle Wang, thank you." Minghao, go grab your bag and go. "Minghao's luggage has already been sent to the study, and now it's good for people to pass.
When Minghao came out, Mingjing gave him a hundred copper plates for pocket use. It will take half a month to come back next time, and when there is a shortage of paper and pens in the academy, it will not be as convenient as before to go home and ask for money.
Ming Hao untied the string tied to the copper plate, counted forty and then strung them up and put them in the book bag, "Sister, forty wen is enough." Nothing to add lately. ”
"You take it, in case you need it, it's more convenient."
Ming Hao shook his head, "Sister, I'm afraid of losing it." Moreover, our family is different from before, and I won't spend some things that can be spent but not spent. ”
Uncle Wang didn't plan to collect Ming Hao's money this time, but this time he and his daughter-in-law got more than three yuan for the family to move, which was worth a few days of people and goods he usually carried. You should be more supportive.
smiled at the moment: "I'm going to go into the city to do errands, just take Minghao by the way." If you give him forty copper plates, it should be enough to pay for it. ”
While speaking, a fat boy walked in, slightly taller than Ming Hao, and it was the fourth cousin next door. He was studying at a private school in the village, and he had just gotten out of school.
"Cousin, my father said that when the second uncle wakes up, let you go over and call him."
Mingjing nodded, "Oh, okay." "Although the family is separated, the uncle is still an elder. It is not easy for him to speak clearly and purely. Moreover, it is impossible for her to prevent her uncle from coming to see her cheap father.
Sister-in-law Gui built a chicken coop in the corner of the yard. Before, Granny Wang sent a basket full of eggs and an old hen. The fifth and seventh aunts also sent some eggs each. Sister-in-law Gui used to be a peasant woman, and after reading it, she said that half of them were ordinary eggs, and the other half were breeding eggs that could hatch chicks. If you build a chicken coop, the old hen will not be able to do a job.
After sending Ming Hao away for a while, Cheap Dad woke up. Mingjing stood in front of the bed and said, "Dad, the fourth cousin came over before and said that when you wake up, let me tell the uncle." ”
Feng Jing saw that she was a little worried, and couldn't help but say, "Don't think too badly about your uncle." ”
Mingjing snorted in her heart, before Minghao told her that her second cousin said on the way that she was going to get married, so that Minghao had a number in her heart, and she couldn't let her hold all the money.
