Chapter 12

This period of time in the village is the busy time for farming, and every family leaves early and returns late, and is busy earning more centimeters.

The two daughters-in-law of the Su family didn't work in the fields at first, so they went to the village to get some hemp rope and rub it at home, earning some work points.

Anyway, the Su family didn't live by centimeters, just a few men in the family went to work in the field, if it wasn't for fear of attracting too much attention, they wouldn't even do the job of rubbing hemp rope.

Some time ago, the captain of the village came to the door and asked the Su family's sister-in-law to take care of the children in the village.

This summer, the weather is hot, and there are many children in every household. The adults are working outside, and the children must run around.

Some time ago, a few children from the next door village sneaked into the river to play in the water, and they fell into the water without paying attention, and they were gone by the time adults found out.

Their village was also worried about such a thing, so they discussed whether to find some people to watch the children and prevent them from running to the river.

Another meeting was held with the villagers, and most of them agreed to do so.

Regardless of the fact that every family has a lot of children, and the beatings and scolding are not lost on weekdays, but no one wants to see anything really happen to their children.

It was originally said to be good, each family took turns to see the children, but there must be more and fewer people who did not work.

I didn't expect that as soon as this was said, someone would be upset.

"Captain, there are not a few people in this family waiting to eat and drink. If there are fewer centimeters, there will be less food."

"That's right, everyone is working so hard just to earn more centimeters."

When it comes to things related to food, some people are dissatisfied, especially some families with few children.

This pissed off the captain, cooperating with the child didn't have any food, right?

It doesn't matter how other people resist.

"Let's just say it like this. Anyone who talks too much will be deducted a centimeter." The angry captain put down his words and left.

The others said they were unhappy, but they didn't dare to say more.

After only a week of this, it happened again.

The four or five-year-old child was so focused on playing that he ran to the river and didn't pay attention, so he stepped on the air and fell down.

Fortunately, he was discovered in time, and he choked on a few mouthfuls of water, but nothing serious happened.

The one who looked after the child that day was a gangster in the village, and he was not active in his work on weekdays, and he did not earn as many work points as women.

The family saw that he didn't earn much, so they let him have children, and the others went to work in the fields to earn more.

The man was so happy and relaxed that he fell asleep directly under the tree, not caring about the child at all.

Fearing that such a situation would happen again in the future, the team leader had no choice but to think of a new way. After much deliberation, he thought of the two wives of the Su family.

When they first heard that they were asked to see their children, the family disagreed.

The weather is so sunny outside, and there are five children at home who need to be watched. This job is thankless, and the children are so easy to take care of.

But the captain really couldn't help it. He also liked that the Su family didn't care about centimeters, and his wife was more careful than some people in the village.

"You guys go back to the house and discuss whether to go or not." Father Su knew in his heart what the captain was thinking.

These years they have been here, if they are not disturbed by others, they will take care of them. Now if people come to beg you, he will refuse if it is not good. Let the daughter-in-law and son discuss it themselves, and he will not force it if he wants to.

Finally, Wang Xiujuan's sister-in-law thought about it and agreed.

The Su family was able to live in the village without being disturbed by other people in the village. The team leader helped a lot.

Now that people have finally opened their mouths, they can't really refuse, and it doesn't sound good to say it.

"Daughter-in-law, just call me if you have anything to do." Su Jianguo was afraid that his wife would be bullied, so he reminded him ten thousand times.

Wang Xiujuan was funny, it made her look like a young lady who didn't leave her home, so there was nothing to worry about.

Before she got married, Wang Xiujuan worked as a teacher in the village for a while. Although she didn't work in the fields, she often dealt with the people in the village.

That is to say, after she got married, she stayed at home every day, doing some housework and looking after her children every day.

Her elder brother and sister were afraid that she would have a bad life after marriage, so they secretly stuffed her with a lot of private money the day before the wedding.

"If you're having a bad time, tell your family and we'll bring you back."

Unexpectedly, after getting married, her life is better than before. She has gained a lot of weight, and her skin has become much fairer and tender.

Knowing that they agreed, the captain finally let go of his heart.

"There is no objection to this. Isn't such an easy job a free centimeter." His wife didn't know what he was so happy about.

If it wasn't for a little less centimeters, she would have done it.

The captain took a puff of his cigarette, and when he heard his wife's words, he tapped the edge of the table with his cigarette stick.

"What do you know, people stay at home well, and the Su family is not short of this centimeter, why should they come out to bask in the sun and suffer."

"It's not good to have too much food." His daughter-in-law muttered, who doesn't want to share more food at the end of the year.

The captain didn't speak, and he couldn't understand this person, it was just a woman's opinion.

The Su family asks for leave from time to time, but you can see that they still live better than them, and the children in the family are raised better than the children in the village.

At first glance, he was not an ordinary person, if it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to deal with the village more.

"It doesn't take much effort. The people in the village will bring the child over later, and you just watch the child not run to the water to play."

"You don't have to worry about anything else, just watch and don't run into the river."

People in the village brought their children over one after another at this moment, and saw the captain leading two people talking there.

"Captain, whose daughter-in-law is this?" The gossip-loving mother-in-law began to inquire, and the two young daughters-in-law were a little unfamiliar.

Wang Xiujuan is no stranger to these things. Everyone in the village is like this. Hearing this, she smiled at her without coddling, "Hello, auntie."

On the contrary, Xu Mei was not used to it. When she first came here, she had never met anyone in the village, and she seldom went out, so she was very unfamiliar with these things.

Seeing my sister-in-law calling someone, I also smiled slightly, "Hello, Auntie."

"This is the daughter-in-law of the Su family. I'm looking for someone to look after the child." The team leader knew the nature of this group of people.

He added, "Everyone has been educated and literate."

Sure enough, Xu Mei noticed that the eyes of these people changed immediately, and their attitudes were much better than before.

"Hey, you're a scholar." Upon hearing that she had studied, the smile on the woman's face became more sincere.

The people who gathered around to join in the fun were also much quieter.

No matter at what time, everyone has an innate good impression of scholars. Who doesn't hope that their children can learn more words and read more books.

"Come on, Er Niu learns from Auntie, doesn't she want to learn how to read, if she doesn't know how to read, just ask."

The woman pulled the granddaughter in her hand, "Where is your brother, call your brother back later, don't run around in the hot weather, and learn more from others."

"Call someone quickly."

"If you don't know it in the future, ask if you know."

Those with children around said this to the children, and those who were not with the children were also looking for the children to come over.

Being able to read and write without paying tuition fees is not for nothing.

Soon, a group of children surrounded the two of them.

These children don't understand anything, but I remember the adults in the family saying that these two aunts will teach them how to read.

The team leader didn't think of this either, and I didn't see these people wanting their children to study more so much.

Seeing that there are more and more people, those who know and don't know all gather here.

"What are you doing, what are you doing, why don't you hurry up and go to work, you want to deduct centimeters."

When the captain yelled like this, everyone in the crowd remembered that they had to go to work.

After explaining a few words to the child, I hurried back to work, and work points would be deducted if I went beyond the time.

Looking down, there were many more children than before, and many eight or nine-year-old children were also pulled over.

It is impossible to say that there is no selfishness, and there are actually quite a few people who want this job.

The team leader also went to look for the Su family specifically. On the one hand, he thought that if something happened in the future, the Su family could remember the village more.

On the other hand, there is no primary school in their village, and children in the village have to go to the next village to go to school, and it takes more than two hours to go back and forth on the light road.

It doesn't matter if the weather is good, but if the weather is bad, no one can rest assured.

There are so many children in the Su family who have never gone to school. He heard that the family members teach the children at home.

This made him think about it, but he couldn't show it too obviously.

"The main thing you want to do is to keep these children from going to dangerous places. You can do other things according to your discretion. If it's inconvenient, forget it."

After speaking, the team leader told the children not to make trouble, and to leave only after being obedient.

The two sisters-in-law and sister-in-law didn't expect such a thing to happen, they looked at each other, and looked down at these children with blank faces.

Wei Wei sighed, originally she was waiting for them here, but now she couldn't let her go.

Fortunately, this group of children is quite obedient, and they all have children. Mothers have a natural love and affection for children, and they don't hate them after contact.

Wang Xiujuan knows how difficult it is for children in the village to study. There are three brothers and sisters in their family, and the two older sisters and older brothers only went to primary school.

She has been studying until high school. Her father died not long after she was born. She has never met her father. She was raised by her sister and her brother, and spent a lot of money for her education.

Originally, she had the opportunity to go to university, but the burden on the family was too heavy. Her older sister got married when she was a sophomore in high school, and her older brother should also marry a wife. spend money.

Although Xu Mei has never experienced Wang Xiujuan's life, she also knows how difficult it is for the children in the village to go to school after living here for several years.

Besides, the appearance of some children who are serious about studying makes them soft-hearted. It's okay anyway, so it's okay to teach a little bit.

They are not so great, if you want to learn, I will teach you, if you don't want to, don't force it.

However, since taking this job, several children in the family began to have objections.

The older ones are okay, they go outside to play every day, and they don't have any special feelings about their mother not being at home.

The one who couldn't accept it the most was Su Qinghe.

When she woke up, there was no one at home. In the past, if she made any movement, her mother would come running over.

Now, except for eating and seeing them at night, only grandma is with her during the day.

This made Su Qinghe, who was used to being very delicate, unhappy.

I had a temper tantrum with my mother for a long time, and ignored Wang Xiujuan for several days in a row. Wang Xiujuan coaxed her for several days before talking to her again.

But this made Su Jianguo very happy. His daughter was angry with his wife, so he hugged her for a long time.
