Chapter 56 56
"He just ate one, and he won't have worm teeth." Mingjing smiled and poured the pickles into her own bowl, and washed the bowl that Mingyu brought over and put it on the table, so that she could take it away in a while. As for those hard candies, they were originally bought for the little dolls who came to play at home, and they were very cheap, and a few pennies were just a handful. I didn't see her have sugar here, and the little dolls are particularly active in running errands and passing on words. When I met, I also called 'Sister Mingjing' sweetly.
Mingyu looked at Mingjing and didn't care about it, and pointed out his words, "Your silver box is almost bottoming out, you can save some." ”
Mingjing's heart warmed, but the cousin's family in the next room treated her more attentively, and remembered the old man's love for help back then. It seems that the cheap dad is still a little worse than the old man in terms of life. Otherwise, why didn't the family next door remember his good at all, but complained a lot?
Mingyu said while helping Mingjing sort out the embroidery thread: "I heard that several cousins of the fourth uncle's family had a quarrel yesterday, and finally wrote an agreement about the future separation. My dad was asked to testify. After coming back, he sighed for a long time, saying that if this continues, the Feng family will go downhill. also said that the ninth uncle was selected for talent and promotion one after another, which originally drove the whole family's style of learning. Now that Uncle Nine is sick, there is no one in the family who can handle it, so he has suffered such a big loss. Alas, so many cousins went to study, but there was not a single one who was talented. You can only count on your family Minghao, but Minghao is too small. "Moreover, this is still the case in your family. I'm afraid even Uncle Jiu's medicine money will be a problem.
What happened next door, Mingjing made up his mind and didn't pay much attention to it. Only then did I know that the matter was really big, and it also made Da Lang and Erlang make trouble. The precedent made by the uncle and the aunt is really shooting themselves in the foot. No wonder there was no sound next door all day today.
"Actually, Brother Mingrun should be able to study, although he didn't pass the Xiucai exam twice. However, my father said that he was still better qualified than the cousins next door, and he was willing to work hard. It's just that there are few men in the fifth uncle's family, and he often needs to work in the fields. Now that the fifth uncle is lying down, it is even more difficult for him to concentrate on reading. ”
Mingyu said: "No, Brother San Lang is really." "Although my father was not seriously injured by his fifth uncle, he also suffered a loss. It's just that it's hard to say that Saburo is a scourge.
"Sister Yu, aren't you interested in the embroidery pieces I took from the past? I'll teach you that stitch now. ”
This is a very special needle technique, which is a very amazing skill. Mingyu has the heart to learn, but it's hard to mention. After all, this is my cousin's entry. She said gratefully, "That's great! Mingjing, thank you. ”
"My sister, what are you talking about?" The next door is completely unreliable, and it would be nice not to add to the chaos. I got closer to the two cousins' families, and in the future, I had someone to talk and run for me when I encountered something. And the two cousins, aunts, and Mingrun and Mingyu can be regarded as friends compared to the family next door.
Mingyu thought of the situation in Mingjing's family, and the joy on his face was accepted, "But, isn't this your income." ”
"If I hadn't taught you, I wouldn't be able to embroider anymore. Also, in addition to embroidery, I have other plans. ”
When Mingyu heard her say this, she didn't ask any more questions. Mingjing is going to teach her the acupuncture method, and she definitely can't ask more about other plans. In short, if there is anything she can do in the future, she will help more.
