Chapter 19 Announcement from the Mayor
Grandpa and grandma didn't close their eyes all night, waiting eagerly for dawn.The two old people don't know a single word, and they have suffered enough from lack of knowledge.So they especially hope that our children and grandchildren can read good books and not follow their old ways.For me, I can recite ancient poems when I was three years old, and I can remember the annotations once I have a good memory.They are happy!

Grandpa really knows every word, and he can't even write his name.Grandma is better, she can recognize a few characters with simple strokes.Every time I see one of them holding a steelyard to weigh the rice seeds, and the other holding a brush to record on red paper, time flies, even if they are the words of the matchmaker, but after decades of having children, how can this kind of relationship be true? Can others explain it in a few words?

"Let's go to the fair today." Grandma said with a smile as she watched the three sleepy-eyed squatting by the patio brushing their teeth and washing their faces. "Go buy you new stationery."

"Okay..." The three ragged voices agreed lazily. They really didn't have any interest in taking advantage of the market. Just across the river was the town street, and they didn't know how many times they went back and forth a day.I got tired of running with my two cousins ​​in a week.

"Come over for breakfast when you're done. Grandpa's friend brought fried fish today." Grandma took out a small plate of fried fish from the rice tank and placed it in the dining room, calling to us.Fried fish is a salty snack food that is necessary for weddings and new houses in our town. Usually, it is made into balls made of glutinous rice flour and fried in an oil nest. If the condition is good, the unique boneless fish in the town is wrapped in flour. Side fish to fry.It is the favorite of children. It is very crispy when it is freshly fried. Even if the air leaks and becomes soft, it is delicious to drink with porridge. If adults have spare time, they can also stew fried fish and plum vegetables.This is also a home cooking dish.

"Yes." The eldest cousin quickly finished washing, watched me slowly, and combed my hair with a big wooden comb.The little cousin also finished it, and ran to the shower room to get my hair rope, and the two of them worked together.By the time they comb my hair, I'm almost finished.In addition to combing my hair on the first day, my grandma gave my two cousins ​​a chance to perform in the following days.I don't know what's going on with them. People who can't even manage their own crew cuts can help me tie a ponytail, and the craftsmanship is very good, and it doesn't hurt my scalp at all.

"Cousin eat." I put a piece of fried fish in each of their bowls, and then I picked up the bowl and drank the porridge carefully.Grandpa and grandma usually get up at [-] o'clock in the morning to cook breakfast. After eating, one goes to the field and the other does laundry.Cooperate tacitly. "Grandma, can you buy me a Xinhua dictionary?"

"Smile, can you look it up in a dictionary?" My cousin asked me curiously, and put a piece of fried fish in my bowl. My cousin doesn't like fried food, but fried fish is really delicious!

"You can teach me and my little cousin." I replied as a matter of course, put the spoon away, and gave the fried fish to my little cousin.Deep-frying is not good for the skin.Ahem, I'm used to the theories that suddenly pop up in my consciousness, so I take it for granted and obey them unconditionally.

"That's right, if you don't understand, I'll just teach you." The big cousin scratched the back of his head, hehe, would Xiaoxiao feel that he was amazing?Also, my younger brother doesn't seem to be so annoying anymore, and he looks quite pleasing to the eye.

"Since you have all agreed, of course I agree." Grandma watched the interaction of the three little ones with satisfaction, raising children and grandchildren, it's great!Life is getting better now, as for the hopeless anklet, just take it as a way of keeping you safe.

Grandma hugged me, and the two cousins ​​stood on one side, pulling grandma by the tail of her shirt and going out.

The village of my grandmother’s family is called Nancun, surrounded by four villages centered on the town in the southeast and northwest. The event government was officially changed to Tenshen Village, named after Tenshen Village.Whether it is not advocating superstition or not, it is indeed good to promote and develop the whole city as a folk feature.There are several towns in the city near the sea, rich in resources, and oil fields have been explored.If we want to promote people's livelihood, there must be a point.And Tianshen Temple is a hot spot.

Speaking of far away, let’s go back to the town. There is a small river between the four villages and the center of the town. One is to irrigate the crops. It comes from the mother rivers of various small villages.The source of the mother river in each small village comes from reservoirs, mountain springs, and rain, so there is no pollution.The villagers in the town directly bring the river water home and boil it for drinking.

Grandma hugged tightly and asked the two cousins ​​to squeeze to the stone sign on the bridge to see the announcement.

"Yao Yong's mother, what are you all looking at?" Grandma asked a woman squeezed out of the crowd.

"Is this the daughter of your third sister? She's so beautiful! But, why is she so thin?" The woman answered irrelevantly, looking at me obediently in my grandmother's arms, she squeezed my arm habitually.Didn't you say three years old?It seems that people who are two years old are much bigger than her.

"Yeah, smile, call me Auntie." Grandma was very happy when she heard that Yao Yong's mother, who is famous for being picky in the whole town, praised me for being beautiful, and automatically ignored what people said about me being thin.

"Hi, Auntie, my name is Qin Xiao." I don't hate the woman in front of me, but I like her straightforwardness, which is much better than those women in my village who said good things to my face and said I was stupid behind my back.

"Good boy." The woman then answered the grandmother's question, "The mayor said that the Pao Zhang factory will be closed down. You also know that two people were killed on the spot due to a fire at the Pao Zhang factory last night, and a dozen others were injured. Now Lying in the hospital? The mayor of the town is now saying that he will stop the firecracker factory and open a glove factory. Anyone who can use a sewing machine can go to the town office to apply for the form. The government will pay for the factory so that we all have an additional source of income, recruitment Of course, the priority is to give priority to the villagers in our town, and to support the return of young people who have gone out to work.”

"Is there no age limit?" Grandma was also moved when she heard that. If that's the case, her craft is not bad.
