But Mrs. Xu didn’t expect to earn so much money.

At this time, both grandfather and grandson were wearing slightly yellowed cotton linings.

It’s not that I can’t wash it out, and it’s not that I don’t like to keep it clean.It was a muslin cloth that had accumulated yellowing over time because it was cheap when I bought it.

Grandfather and grandson are sitting across from each other with their legs crossed.

"Nai, please keep these 500 taels of silver notes."

The space between Xu Tianxin and Mrs. Xu was filled with banknotes, which were like a bridge of communication between them.

Money is still an iron. It feels warm when placed on the hot bed and can iron out all the wrinkles in life.

"I remember that you and I often said that when you have money, you should never forget the days when you have no money. How many people have you seen when you are in trouble? People come to me to ask for spring rain, and I ask others for June frost.

I didn't understand before. I didn't even pay much attention to pension insurance when I was working. I only paid attention to the salary I received. Now I understand a little bit.

So this money was used when life was not going well, and our family was short of money. "

Mrs. Xu nodded: "My granddaughter really knows everything. No wonder she is capable at such a young age, no matter in modern times or here."

Xu Tianxin couldn't help but be happy and complimented each other: "That's because you laid a good foundation for me. Have you forgotten? I was exhausted when I first came here. I wanted to do something and didn't even have the starting capital. I didn't know where to start. . You earned dozens of pennies, a dozen taels for a filter, and you dared to buy it for me when you never saw the money coming back."

Thinking of what happened on the way to Fucheng, Mrs. Xu covered her mouth and smiled: "I only sell sets of essays for dozens of essays, and the rest are just taels. Selling a cake recipe can make dozens of taels. It's not as good as you said." Pitiful."

But Mrs. Xu is still a little proud in her heart. She feels that she is a good grandma no matter in modern times or here.

She did it. If the child wanted something and thought it was useful, she would try her best to earn money to buy it.

In addition, she actually doesn’t restrict her granddaughter’s spending money.

She couldn't let her children spend time here, so she sighed and said that the family still lacked this and that, which would make the children suffer from hedonic guilt.It seems like you have to let the rest of the family be happy first before you can take your turn.

Mrs. Xu has experienced grievances in this regard.

When she was a girl, after working in a factory and deducting the wages she paid to her parents, she only had money for food from the night shift in her pocket.

She was not hungry, so she saved pocket money for several months and wanted to make herself a good-quality shirt that was popular at the time.

In the end, I had saved enough money. My mother said that the family was short of this and that. After thinking about it, forget it.I always feel that no matter how beautiful I wear, I can’t be more beautiful. My parents are so poor and they haven’t even put on good clothes yet.You don't deserve to enjoy yourself.

And the consequence of always thinking like this is that you feel like you don’t deserve anything.

He was praised for being sensible, but the praise was useless. The most vain thing will last a lifetime.Youth passed in a blink of an eye, and when I finally made up my mind, I stopped even producing Chuiliang Nabu. Looking back, I felt I had been really unfair to myself.

There is a modern saying that it takes a lifetime to heal the influence of the original family.

Spending money on yourself but feeling guilty is a disease.

So Mrs. Xu made up her mind to pay special attention to raising her granddaughter.

When she had no money, she told her granddaughter the truth. It's not that the child doesn't deserve to have the little red leather shoes. It's that grandma's financial resources have not kept up for the time being. You can buy them for grandma when she earns money.

If she can give her something she can afford, she can tell her directly that her granddaughter deserves all the good things and can buy whatever she wants.There is no one who stipulates which kind of people deserve to be well-fed and clothed. In this world, there are no distinctions between urban children and children born in the mountains, only whether they can afford it.As long as you can afford it, it goes with anything.

In short, this is why she never restricts her granddaughter from spending money on herself, but does not agree with how to buy land and cattle for the family.

No matter how well the family is doing, it should not be a burden to the granddaughter.

Of course, she also had some thoughts. Can her sons kiss her granddaughter again?What's the point of letting your granddaughter always send money back home?

What's more, the family is doing well now. Well, it's really doing well. She also has more than 200 taels in her own hands, as well as so much food and goods.

Mrs. Xu collected the banknotes and said, "I won't touch it unless I can't open the pot at home. We were as poor as we were when we first came here and couldn't prepare to spend some money. Besides, even if grandma accepts it, treat it as saving money for you." On."

Xu Tianxin didn't care how she arranged her milk, she gave it to her anyway.

Then he counted out another 500 taels of silver notes and handed it over: "Here, milk, you should also keep it."

"What kind of money is this?"

Xu Tianxin lay down and said: "Escape money. If the Zhenbei Army is defeated, I am in his party. At that time, our whole family will run away with 500 taels incognito."

This is her fault. No matter how poor you are, you can't lack the money to escape.

After saying that, Xu Tianxin laughed twice and fell into a sweet dream while still smiling.

Mrs. Xu turned to look at her granddaughter and thought: What kind of child is this?

Yes, I couldn't sleep after saying just one sentence to her.

After getting off the kang and going to the kitchen to pour some water, Mrs. Xu was startled again by the old woman.

"What are you doing? It's midnight and you're not sleeping."

The old lady heard that her great-granddaughter had taken on another big business, and she would make a lot of money after the goods were delivered.She didn't know exactly how much.Just listen to the meaning of wealth and honor.

And this time I also brought back many things given by noble people.

The old lady thought excitedly for a moment about how rich her great-granddaughter was.

I don't know since when, all the wealth has poured into the second house. Now the house has everything including food and clothing.She kind of ran into Fuwozi.You said it's a big house, but it needs to be presentable. Can you also use the light to do some work here?well.

After a while, I turned over and sat up again and thought to myself: My great-granddaughter won’t have to buy a few more bullock carts to make money, right?That’s not possible, it’s better to buy more land.

Isn't that right? When I met the old lady Xu in the kitchen, the old lady wanted to shut up but couldn't help but said: "You have to advise Tian Xin'er, don't waste your family when you have money, otherwise what will you do when you have no money?"

Mrs. Xu used a gourd and gourd to scoop some cold water from the jar, and while drinking, she said: "If I don't have money, I will take her to worship Buddha. I will spend a few pennies of incense and make tens of thousands of taels of wishes. I can't embarrass myself. Our ancestors The two grandsons will embarrass the Buddha, what do you think? If that doesn’t work, I will take her to the grave to embarrass the ancestors of the Xu family. After all, there is a blood relationship."

The old lady choked and muttered: "They can't do anything, so what are you trying to do?"

Mrs. Xu laughed angrily and said: "You are 70 years old, are you too busy? And you are thinking about it in the name of doing good for others. If you don't need food and drink, it will be fine. I think you are still not tired, hurry up tomorrow If you build a women's bathhouse, you can go and take a bath, and you won't have time to worry about it when you're tired. Besides, your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, and it doesn't matter how much you earn."

No, it does.

On the second day, Xu Tianxin began to release information after a full sleep.

Her brain was too tired before, so she slept for sixteen hours at a stretch after arriving home.I heard that my grandma was watching over her at home and reheating meals over and over again.

"Tainai, I'll make two pieces of clothing for you from this fabric. One piece can be made now and worn, so that you can show it off when you go out to pay people wages. The other piece should be made and kept for the New Year."

Xu Tianxin was very moved when he saw the old lady, and explained: "This is given to our family by the general's sister, and it has nothing to do with me. So, Tai Nai, if we have a chance to meet next time, we should be more enthusiastic towards others, ah?"

"Ah? Ah." But the old lady knew in her heart that the general knew her by her noble surname, and she was just borrowing the honor of her great-granddaughter.

Xu Tianxin gave Yu Qinniang two more pieces of food.

"Auntie, show me your hands."

"Just put some sugar on it, it's so weird, it's really okay."

Yu Qinniang pushed the materials back and thought: This year has been enough to clear the pile of blessings. She has added six items from the inside to the outside, but she can't add more: "Keep it, don't you mean to give rewards to those who work hard?" If you are in trouble, use this award."

Xu Tianxin looked at the wound and saw that it looked really good.This is also the reason why sugar can be called a strategic material.

In modern perianal abscess surgery, the incision is filled with sugar to prevent infection.

When you give birth to a baby by caesarean section, the incision collapses open a few days later, so no sutures are needed.There are also some stab wounds.

This means that the wound is in a hypertonic state, making it difficult for bacteria to survive and prevent infection.Sugar can also stimulate the incision, accelerate healing, and the granulation will grow quickly. If it is well cared for, no scars will be visible.

Xu Tianxin automatically had these thoughts running through her mind, so it was okay for her to take care of her grandfather. The ancients went through repeated tests of letting go of everything when seeing a doctor.

"Take it, I have kept the prize for them. In addition..." Xu Tianxin took out another dark brown piece and two old black cloths, which she exchanged for fresh-colored muslin cloth and milk.

Yu Qiniang was stunned, why did she keep giving more and more?

Mrs. Xu sighed inwardly.Her granddaughter has big hands and paws, and she insists on making everyone happy, otherwise it will be boring and she won’t have the energy to work.The next three months will be busy just for this moment.

Mrs. Xu explained:
"Take it, Tian Xin told me privately that the shop is busy this year and you don't have time to go back to your parents' house. Why don't you take the time to make the clothes and ask someone to send them to your mother and your second brother.

As daughters, making money this year will make them happy.

As for the powerful one, you have to hold it tight first.I looked at his clothes, which were almost as good as the clothes that the third child wore before. The cloth was not strong, and the sleeves fell off when someone pulled his arm when he said hello. "

Yu Qiniang quickly got up and went out, pretending to go to the side room to wake up Xu Laoer.

Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin looked at each other. Are they secretly wiping away tears again?Life has been good for so long, are you still not used to it?
What the grandfather and grandson didn't know was that at this time, the three members of the Xu family almost cried.

The three of them were busy in the shop until midnight last night, and this morning they were busy seeing off customers, and ran home to catch up on their sleep at noon.Otherwise, I might not be able to bear the guests who come at night.

Logically, they could catch up on their sleep in the shop, but Tian Xin was back, and the three of them thought they would rather stop squinting for a while and go home to take the time to listen to the baby talk for a while.

Unexpectedly, the niece was still asleep at noon. It could be seen that no matter how nice it was outside, it was not as peaceful as at home. The three of them got sleepy after waiting, so they ran back to the house to catch up on their sleep.

Unexpectedly, when I woke up, there was a red envelope on my pillow, and there was a note in the red envelope.

I didn't know what the ghost symbol drawn on the note meant before, but later my niece said that the pattern was a heart, Xu Tianxin's heart.

At this time, behind the solid red heart, there was a mouth drawn and sewn shut.

Xu Laoer took out the contents of the red envelope, which was ten taels of silver.

He immediately understood what his niece meant. This was pocket money secretly given to his second uncle, asking him not to hand it over or tell others, but to use it for himself.

I still remember the first time Tian Xin spoke for them: "How can a man not have money in his pocket? Give me some milk."

Tian Xin didn’t give her any milk.

Later, my niece gained strength herself. People with strength usually seemed unwilling to talk much, so sometimes she would give her one tael, sometimes two taels, and stuff it directly to him.

Xu Laoer: It's just that the bathhouse boy needed change, so he went out with the change in a daze, which was equivalent to handing it over to his mother again.

He is not as sharp as the fourth child. He can save a lot of money to pay for pork, and even get some praise from his mother.It's not as good as the third child, who doesn't care, and brings back a few godsons from outside.

When Yu Qiniang entered the room, Xu Laoer hurriedly pretended to look out the window, and quickly blinked away the wetness in his eyes when he turned his head.

After suppressing the enthusiasm in his heart, Xu Laoer suddenly remembered that he hadn't hidden the money yet.I thought it was over and had been discovered, but I didn't expect that his wife was also very strange today. She didn't even look at him and pretended to be busy.

"What's wrong with you? Did grandma say something to you again? What are you afraid of her doing? You are supported by two pillars as thick as your waist, and you are the middle door frame. If it were me, I would walk sideways in this house."

"Go aside." Yu Qinniang burst into tears and smiled: "It's Tian Xin'er, she... eh? Where did you get the money?"

"Daughter-in-law, you don't have anything else."

"Mom, your son has ten taels of silver in his pocket."

"How much?" Mrs. Xu glanced at her granddaughter.

In another side room, Xu Laosan and Lao Si were also woken up. Just as the two brothers rubbed their eyes and looked at the red envelopes and were moved, Mrs. Xu came in and said, "Come on, come on, exchange two taels for it. When you go out, mother." Here you go. Be obedient.”

But even if they were confiscated, the three Xu family members were still very happy. In this family, it doesn't matter whether they have money or not. What's important is that they need them.

The three uncles, who were embarrassed to accept money from their niece in the past, gradually feel that if they are old, their niece can continue to secretly give money to them. It is a particularly happy thing to give money to these three old men. .

At this time, in the courtyard of the Xu family.

At first, Xu Tianxin was the only one standing there looking at the house.

Later, the old lady stopped and thought: What is this child looking at? There is no bird's nest.

Then Yu Qinniang gave Xu Tianxin a hat and accompanied him while sweeping the yard with a broom.

After that, there are three.The three of them didn't eat at noon and were drinking sauerkraut soup in the house.As a result, I was so curious about what my niece was looking at that I quickly drank the soup in a few mouthfuls and ran out to follow her.

Mrs. Xu opened the door and saw this scene. She was very puzzled and ran to look at the sky.

I believe that if Xu Tianxin suddenly lay down on the ground at this time, the people in the row behind who were not sure what was going on would be frightened and immediately fall down.

Xu Tianxin is calculating how to expand the family and how many acres of land he should buy so that everyone in the family can have their own house.

She wants to plant orange trees and build grape trellises in the yard with her own hands.

Plant hollies, wintersweets, lilacs, wild roses, mints, etc., which will bloom with splendor as the seasons change, filling the courtyard with their fragrance.In the garden, she wants to make a swing with her second uncle.

She also wants to build an outdoor thatched pavilion with her own hands, where she can cook tea and write, and the family can sit inside and have meals in spring and summer.

Opposite the thatched pavilion, it is best to use bamboo to build a couch, which should be larger in meters, and place two chairs next to it, or use bamboo to make a small table and a few small stools for drinking tea.

In this way, in the summer, the whole family can lie down or sit in rocking chairs, rock cattail fans, eat watermelon, and chat under the moon.If the second uncle and aunt could be more upbeat, it would be better if there were children nearby who were babbling or learning to walk.

"There are so many mosquitoes." Mrs. Xu suddenly said.

Only then did Xu Tianxin realize that he had said it: "I'll put gauze outside my bed, and then I'll sit under the moon and sew your clothes. How about it, baby?"

Tai Nai spoke first: "Can you scratch your hair with a needle?" Are you that kind of virtuous person?He also sewed clothes for us.You don't even know how to wear a veil.Not great.

Xu Tianxin pointed to the kitchen again, "Nai, I'm going to build a new kitchen for you. The kitchen can open two large windows, and your vegetable cutting table faces the flowers in the yard and us playing. When the time comes, you will If you don't glance at us often, you will feel happy chopping vegetables.

Including the cooking area at the back, there are also two large windows.After pushing it open, you will see the melons, peas, gourds, and mushrooms grown in the back garden..."

No more gardening of cabbage and potatoes.

Old Mrs. Xu said: "...Yes, the north and south are transparent, and mosquitoes can get in even more." Besides, how happy can she be if she cooks every day?Who cooks happiness.

Xu Tianxin: "I don't attract mosquitoes, I'll cook for you." On the operating table are bowls, saucers, spoons and chopstick holders made of clay pots, ceramics, bamboo, wood and purple clay. What an enjoyment.

The three members of the Xu family said: "My uncle must tell the truth. We will starve to death by the time you prepare the meal."

Xu Tianxin looked for help: "Auntie, do you understand? It's like one flower, one leaf, one vegetable, one meal, and the whole family surrounds..."

Yu Qinniang said: "You can't have vegetables and rice. Whenever you eat at home, our family always eats meat and two vegetables." Sometimes we also eat two meats, okay.
