Poor family mother and son

Chapter 101

Xiao Bao pulled Qiu Sheng over and stood side by side, waiting, as if preparing to accept the younger brother.

Everyone was silent.You Zhenghang was in the worst mood right now, why did he talk too much just now and count himself in?
Still naively thinking that with the blessing of a "genius" like yourself, the game has weight?

Now it seems that calling "brother" has more weight!
Qiusheng was already taller than these children, but he was still standing upright at this moment, and he was really proud.He didn't expect that Xiaobao already had such a strong "skill" that he could write poems just by opening his mouth.

She Yu came over at this moment: "What are you doing stuck here?"

Everyone took the opportunity to rush away.Xiao Bao glanced at She Kui dissatisfied, and said in his heart: Did you do it on purpose?

She Yu stared: "What? Still not convinced?"

"The younger brothers are discussing poetry with us, it's too disunity for you to drive them away like this!" Xiaobao said.

"You!" She Yu didn't know how to answer.He really came to rescue.Of course not for Xiaobao.

Usually when Xiaobao was at a disadvantage, this edict never showed up. Today, just as Xiaobao gained the upper hand, he came out, and any fool could see that he was defending those people.

Qiu Sheng stared at the edict and said, "We remember you."

The words were very ordinary, and there was no threatening tone at all, but She Yu felt threatened.

But what can he do.Among those children just now, there are his brothers from the same clan. They are direct descendants, and he is a collateral branch. The reason why he can come to school is to take care of him, otherwise he will be replaced.

As long as you can pass the exam, you won't be angry again.She Yu pursed her lips and thought.bear it.

Looking at the two brothers in front of him, I felt envious.They don't have the same surname, and they support each other.

She Yu left with complicated thoughts.There was nothing Xiaobao could do if he was unhappy, the people dispersed, this brother just didn't take it seriously.

…………

Today is the new year.Chu Qing was going to pay everyone wages, so he specially exchanged two carts of copper coins, took Xiaobao, and everyone in the house, and went back to Baolu Group together.

Daxuan Kingdom’s Spring Festival holiday is similar to modern times, and it is also seven days, but it is calculated around the first day of the new year. There are three days off before the first day of the new year, three days off after the first day of the new year, plus the day of the first day, exactly seven days off.Then there are seven days off for the Lantern Festival.

The school holidays are different. There is a holiday on the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, and classes start on the [-]th of the first lunar month.There are also forty days of this winter vacation.

Back at Baolu Group, Xiaobao received a warm welcome.These soldiers threw Little Treasure around, Chu Qing worried that they would spoil Little Treasure.What if I hurt my spine?
Zhuo Yao was not worried: "Don't worry, boss, if Xiaobao doesn't want to, he will jump down."

Before the words finished, Xiaobao was thrown high, and then Xiaobao stood upright in the air, adjusted his standing posture, and then stepped on the shoulder of a soldier with his little feet, jumped to the open space next to him and landed firmly .

Xiao Bao jumped down after seeing Chu Qing's worried expression.At this time, she ran up to Chu Qing, her little face blushing, "Mother, I'm hungry!"

This is the meaning of having dinner early.Chu Qing patted Xiaobao on the shoulder: "Do the business first!"

"Okay!" Xiaobao went to find Zhuo Yao and Chu Yuan.

Chu Qing planned to pay her wages today.We can't wait until the end of the month, which is New Year's Eve.She wants everyone to have pocket money for the New Year.

These people are down-to-earth and hard-working.This year it is impossible to start the holiday from the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. There are more and more orders. During the Chinese New Year, I can only say that I am not busy, but it is not that there is no work.

Chu Qing gather everyone together and pay wages!Eight hundred yuan per person, the baskets containing copper coins were dead heavy, and the baskets were moved off the carriage.

Every time Xiaobao sends out a copy, he will say: "Thanks for your hard work!" which makes everyone laugh.

Lao Yu started writing blessings from the day before yesterday, and prepared the Chu residence in the city first.

It's still the old rule, if you are a family, you have to have the word "blessing" and couplets.Now everyone is still asking me to write, but Lao Yu quit!
He almost trained himself as a calligrapher just by writing the word "Fu".He said that he was only responsible for clarifying the small courtyard, and the rest of the people wrote it themselves.

The old man said this: "The boss invited a gentleman for you, and you haven't learned how to write yet? Write it yourself! If you can't write well, the boss will beat you!"

So some people with quick brains ran to find Mr. Nie.In the end it became the job of Mr. Nie and his two sons.

When Chu Qing came back this time, he also gave new year gifts to the village chiefs of the three villages and Zhang Erni's family.Inexpensive, affordable chicken, duck, fish and the like.

He also specially brought Xiaobao to give Mr. Xie a new year gift. Fortunately, he came to give it today, otherwise Mr. Xie would have gone to his son's house, and it would have been a waste of time.

Chu Qing picked up Xiaobao's school affairs and told Mr. Xie, for example, the teacher would give comments under the homework or something.

Mr. Xie smiled and listened, and said to Xiaobao after listening, "Not only literati look down on each other, as long as there is jealousy, everyone will look down on each other, do you understand?"

Xiaobao nodded seriously: "Sir, I will remember. I will be cautious."

Mr. Xie laughed loudly: "Hahaha, good boy! I don't want you to be a man with your tail between your legs, but I want you to calm down at any time."

I don't know if Xiaobao can understand this, but Chu Qing really took it to heart.This may be that Mr. Xie is using his own life experience to remind them to keep their hearts, not to change themselves in the eyes of others, and not to be too selfish and overestimate themselves.

This is not only a teaching for Xiaobao, but also a teaching for Chu Qing.Chu Qing got up respectfully, and led Xiaobao to salute Mr. Xie: "Thank you, sir!"

During dinner, I received a letter from the young men in Xinlunzhou, saying that half of them would come back for the Spring Festival, they would go back after the Spring Festival, and the other half would come back for the Lantern Festival.They took the Baolu Group as their home.

Chu Qing was very happy, and had to exchange some copper coins back.Don't look at these guys making a lot of money outside, but Chu Qing couldn't afford to lose their wages.

After eating, Chu Qing went to Master Lu's place and found that Mr. Nie was also there.This Master Lu is a talent, he can talk to anyone.

Chu Qing brought a lot of soft snacks to Master Lu. Master Lu was very happy, and then he heard Chu Qing assign a task: "Master Lu, hurry up and get a batch of mandarin duck pots and iron skewers?"

"You, you, you... the old man almost praised you! Forget it!" Master Lu's beard turned up.For those who celebrate the Chinese New Year, let them work overtime!

"Grandpa Lu, this is for you!" Xiaobao took out a pair of cotton shoes from his schoolbag.

Chu Qing was dumbfounded, why didn't she know there were such a pair of shoes?Zhuo Yao laughed beside him: He knows about this!

On the day of Xiaobao's holiday, Zhuo Yao picked him up from school, and Xiaobao went to pick it out for Master Lu, but he didn't want to tell anyone.

Master Lu laughed haha, but he was very happy. He smiled and tears flowed down the lines in the corners of his eyes.

Mr. Nie felt very uncomfortable seeing Zhuo Yao's appearance.That kid was still pulling his neck that day!Chu Qing asked Zhuo Yao to go back and brought some books, paper and pens.

In terms of price, Mr. Nie's is the most expensive, and everything related to learning is expensive.When Zhuo Yao handed the things to Mr. Nie, he was also a little uncomfortable.Mainly because of money.

After returning to Chu Residence from Baolu Group, Chu Qing began to investigate one matter.The boys in Xinlunzhou said something in their letter, and they had fun with everyone at that time, but Chu Qing didn't deal with it.

The letter said that their warehouse in northern New London was being missed.A few days after the warehouse was built, someone said that they wanted to buy the warehouse.

The boys didn't take it to heart at the time, because it was the time when merchants snapped up the stalls in the mutual market.Chuqing's warehouse was the first to open up, and within a few days, the sale of land was not allowed.However, the land of the booth can be rented out.

Of course my kid can't agree to sell it.This is because someone in the family can have inside information. How can the land that was snatched in advance be sold, no matter how much money is given.

So there was a refusal at that time.But the next day, another person came, still saying that they wanted to sell their warehouse.Sent away again.

On the third day, someone came again.The boys started to get suspicious.Although different people came three times in a row, they felt that they should be a group of people.

Because they all spoke in the same tone and accent, and it was the accent of Jizhou.The letter also said that these people mentioned the Meng family in Jizhou once.There is no other information.
