90’s Wonderful Times

Chapter 904: Poor children are headed early

These two families are all elderly people at home, and each family has four children. The older one is in junior high school, and the younger is only six or seven years old.

In the end, the price was negotiated, 100 yuan a day. This is only the cost of accommodation. As for food, I would like to provide it, but each household does not have much food. The adults have left, and the land is only served by the elderly. It's expensive to buy, and I don't want to move the food at home.

Fortunately, Yuxi took it into consideration when he came, and bought a lot when he was in the city, and prepared the bedding himself.

Only the mattress was missing, the bed was only wooden, and nothing else.

There is only one cooking platform, and there are many people here in Yuxi. In the end, Nian Junwen took people to the town and bought a simple stove for making banquets in the countryside. He also bought some pots and bowls.

When everything was packed, it was four o'clock in the afternoon.

The twins can't be idle, it's good to be able to help, Shuo Shuo said: "Mom, let's look everywhere."

Yuxi, "Pay attention to safety. You are not allowed to play near the fish pond, and you are not allowed to harm the fruit. If you want to eat the fruit and buy it with money, it is not easy for anyone. It takes several years for a fruit tree to bloom and bear fruit. Have you heard?"

Shuosuo, "I heard, we must not harm the fruit."

Yuxi waited for the children to leave, and said to Nian Junwen, "What about the firewood?"

The eldest child of this family in the yard came forward, a little embarrassed, "You can use the yard, no, my brother and I will go to the mountain to pick it up."

Yuxi looked at the firewood in the yard, and it was enough for two days. She didn't have the guts to use the firewood picked up by the child, "Is there anyone selling firewood here?"

The boy, "Yes, the Shen Hai family in the east of the village has them. His family didn't sell them last year, and there are still a lot left."

Yuxi was stunned, "Last year was a cold winter, why hasn't it been sold yet?"

Boy, "Shen Hai's grandpa broke his leg and no one could pull it out, so he didn't sell it."

Yuxi learned about the situation, and asked someone to buy it. He was going to buy some firewood to come back.

After the arrangement was made, Yuxi had time to chat with the boy. Why wasn't it grandparents? The old couple was old and didn't want to contact outsiders. There were always four children in the yard.

The family's surname is Mi, and the person who has been talking to Yuxi is Mi Shan, and the name is very simple.

Yuxi asked, "Are there many students in the elementary school?"

Mi Shan is a diligent child, and he is splitting wood while returning, "Many, children from nearby villages come here to go to primary school, but very few of them went to junior high school last year, not only because the distance is too long, but also because they can't afford the money, not because the tuition is expensive. The school in the town does not have dormitories, generally those with relatives live in relatives’ houses, and those without relatives can only live in other people’s houses, and the annual bill is too expensive.”

Yuxi asked, "What about you, I heard from the township chief that you are in the second year of junior high school."

"I commute back and forth, and it's not too far to walk three hours back and forth."

Yuxi was silent. Her family was poor when she was a child, but the coast is close to the city, and she has never experienced the hardship of going to school. It is really difficult for these children to go to school. "If there is a place that provides free accommodation in the town, would anyone be willing to go?"

Mi Shan hesitated, "Accommodation only accounts for part of it, mainly for meals. Our family has at least two, and there are three or four children in the family. It is unrealistic for everyone to tighten their belts for one child."

Yuxi looked at Mi Shan in astonishment. When the child first saw them, he was cautious, but not timid. As he chatted, his thinking was very clear, and his Mandarin was also good, "You surprised me."

Mi Shan Hanhan smiled, "Our family is considered the best in the village. My parents are small outsiders and earn more money. I also have the opportunity to go outside and see the importance of knowledge."

Yuxi smiled. People have different personalities. With the same opportunity, not everyone can become Mishan. "How are your grades?"

"The number one in the town, but it is far from the county and city. Our teachers are not good enough. The teachers are aging, and they are all teachers who have not left before. The town's No. 1 water is very good, I can buy two sets of test books a year, and my parents brought them back, and I lent them to the teacher after finishing them."

Yuxi looked deeply at the child in front of her. The child talked a lot and was consciously guiding her to speak. This started after she asked for free accommodation, "You are very smart."

Mi Shan's face flushed, and he lowered his head in a panic. Yuxi and Nian Junmin looked at each other with a smile in their eyes. No matter how smart they are, they are still children. This child has a good heart and sees hope. To myself and other classmates, there is nothing wrong. Seize the opportunity, not everyone can realize the opportunity.

Yuxi said to Nian Junwen, "Let's go to the village to see."

"Okay, just in time to buy some groceries."

Mishan wanted to open his mouth several times, but finally closed it.

The air here is really good, there is no pollution, and the environment is good, but unfortunately it is too difficult to develop.

Nian Junmin carried a basket in his hand and borrowed it from the Mishan family. The vegetable garden here is uneven and the fruit is not large, but it is not polluted, and pesticides and fertilizers are rarely used.

Yuxi and his wife deliberately went to the dilapidated house to buy it. The head of the house was all children, and the old man ran away when he saw outsiders.

A basket of vegetables is really cheap. These children are short of money and will not ask for more money.

On the way back, I saw a few children, followed by two people, hired by Wang Fulu.

Shuo Shuo's children were holding the fish tied with grass ropes in their hands. They counted four, and Yuxi said, "How much did you pay for them?"

Fang Xuan, "One piece is five yuan, four pieces are twenty, and there is a basket of fruits, sold by the basket, twenty-one baskets."

Yuxi, "......"

There are a lot of fish, at least three catties, five yuan a piece is really too cheap, looking at the fruit of ten catties and twenty, if it is in the city, it can be sold for two hundred.

Miaomiao said: "Mom, you don't know, we want to give more money, they don't want to live or die, and they say that five yuan is too expensive." Fang Xuan continued: "The children here say that the fish pond here is A lot, such a big fish is not worth much, if it is transported by car, it will cost a lot of fuel for a round trip~www.readwn.com~ Many of the fish caught are eaten by themselves, unless they fall into a big fish, this is worth some money.”

Gui Xun smiled and said, "Auntie, this place is really interesting."

Yuxi looked at Gui Xun, this child has a serious Internet addiction, and he has not yet surfed the Internet when he came here, so he won't be so happy after a while.

Nian Junmin looked at the time, "Let's go, go back to cooking."

Miaomiao raised her hand, "Dad, let's cook, we'll cook today."

Yuxi, "......"

She really didn't have much confidence.

Yuxi only needs seven children plus two of them. Half-year-old children eat no less than adults at all. The work of dinner is quite big.

Yuxi stood and watched for a while, then pushed her husband, "I don't have dazzling eyes!"

Nian Junmin was very satisfied with the situation in front of him, "Not bad, not bad."
