Chapter 9 Warm Relatives

After shopping, Xie Fugui said to Xie Jingyan: "I'm going to your grandma's house for dinner today at noon."

When a child is about to go to school, according to the custom here, one has to tell the elders in the family, especially the grandma's family, who usually buy a set of clothes or a schoolbag to celebrate the child going to school.

Sure enough, when Xie Jingyan arrived at her grandmother's house and knew that Xie Jingyan was going to school, her grandmother took out a new set of clothes. It was obvious that they had been prepared a long time ago. In other words, Xie Fugui and Luo Jinlian had told them in advance.

"Congratulations to Erniu for becoming a primary school student. Try to wear a red scarf as soon as possible and become a young pioneer." Grandma smiled and gave the clothes to Xie Jingyan.

As a primary school student, being able to become a Young Pioneer and wearing a red scarf is the most glorious thing. Grandma’s blessing is the best blessing for Xie Jingyan, who is a primary school student.

Xie Jingyan's grandmother's surname was Qi, and Xie Jingyan didn't know her grandmother's specific name. Anyway, here, everyone taught her as Aunt Luo or Granny Qi.

Xie Jingyan’s grandfather, Luo Zhongfa, died when Xie Jingyan was three years old. It is said that Luo Zhongfa had a recurrence of asthma at that time.

In fact, if penicillin could be injected at that time, one could still live, but a penicillin cost 50 cents, and the Luo family was so poor that they didn't even have a cent. If they borrowed it, others would have to consider the Luo family's ability. After all, today's Luo family

The family lives in thatched houses and has little income, so they are worried that they will not be able to pay the bills.

Of course, even though the two girls live a tight life, it is still okay to buy a penicillin.

Just a dose of penicillin can't solve the problem. To suppress Luo Zhongfa's asthma attack at that time, he would need to take penicillin for at least half a month.

This does not include post-care issues.

Luo Zhongfa also knew that he could not survive with just one dose of penicillin. If he wanted to survive, he was afraid that medicine would be indispensable in the future, so he was unwilling to receive treatment, so he just gave up.

Grandma Luo Qi's natal family was in the mountains. At that time, her family was poor and could not afford to support her, so she was given to Luo Zhongfa as a child bride when she was eleven years old.

It is said that the Luo family was quite wealthy back then, but later, because Luo Zhongfa was a prodigal, everything was sold out, and the family of seven ended up crowded into a dilapidated house.

Fortunately, except for the eldest daughter, the other three sons and one daughter have all gone to school, and now they have their own families, and they also have their own jobs. Even if the jobs are not good, at least they can live this life.

And now that the self-employed have emerged, it can be said that it has given people a bright future.

It is a pity that Luo Zhongfa did not catch up with such a day. If it were now, not to mention the cost of medicine for a few months, but even for several years, everyone could collect it.

Today, the Luo Qi family has a small amount of savings due to the filial piety of their children. In addition, she also makes some money by rubbing some straw ropes every day, so she does not have big money, but she still has small money. At least, she still has money to buy clothes for Xie Jingyan.

of.

"Mom, actually it's just a matter of time and it doesn't cost anything." Xie Fugui is actually very filial to Luo Qi.

It seems that the Luo Qi family is also a blessed person, with at least three sons and two daughters who are very filial.

"What are you talking about? Erniu's schooling is a big deal in the family. I should have bought this school bag and pencils originally, but you and Jin Lian are cheating on me and are worried that I will spend money. Now that I am buying a set of clothes, you still say, why are you looking down on me?

Your mother, my money?" Luo Qishi asked dissatisfied.

"What the hell, Mom, you are really overthinking this. If there is no such thing, I just thought that it is normal for children to go to school. There is no need to make such a big fuss and give her clothes." Xie Fugui said.

"This is called xuecai. It's a ritual. I want to seek good fortune. I wish our second girl good academic performance and strive to be admitted to university in the future." Luo Qishi said directly.

"That's right." As he interrupted, his uncle Luo Jin walked in.

"Why are you here today? Didn't you say that Ana was not feeling well two days ago? How is she doing now?" Ana is the name of my eldest aunt.

Some time ago, I heard that she was in poor health, and Ms. Luo Qi was still very worried.

"Ana is pregnant again. It's been less than three months and I haven't come to tell you." The uncle is now a projectionist in a cinema. The whole family lives in the dormitory of the cinema and rarely goes home. Luo Qi is with

The second child lived together in Luobu.

Luo Bu now has a partner. If nothing unexpected happens, he will get married by the end of the year. Now the family only has a thatched house, so the Luo family plans to buy a small mud house next to it. Of course, the main thing is to buy the foundation of this piece of land.

If you have money in the future, you can build a house.

"Ana is pregnant again. This is a good thing. I heard rumors a few days ago that a family will only be able to have one child in the future. This matter has not been announced yet. It just so happens that Ana is pregnant and she gave birth earlier, regardless of gender.

The more children, the more lively the home will be.”

The Luo Qi family does not have the tendency to favor sons over daughters, otherwise they would not have raised their three sons and two daughters so well.

"Well, I think so too, but Ana has just been born, and Bingbing is at her most naughty, so I'm thinking of sending Bingbing over tomorrow to live with you for a while, at least until Ana is born.

"

Luo Bingbing is Luo Jin's eldest daughter, and Luo Jin still likes this daughter very much.

"Okay." Mrs. Luo Qi agreed without saying a word.

Besides, the Luo family lived not far from Luo Jin's movie theater, only a twenty-minute walk away, so Luo Qishi could be considered a nearby helper.

"Er Niu is going to school. I have nothing to give you, so I will give you a red envelope to celebrate Er Niu." Luo Jin took out a red envelope and handed it to Xie Jingyan.

It seemed that Luo Jin had already prepared this.

"Why are you so polite, Ah Jin?" Xie Fugui said hurriedly.

"This is not for you, but for my niece. To be honest, there are five of us brothers and sisters. The eldest sister is the one who suffers. I am the eldest son. The situation at that time meant that I had to go to school. And Jin Lian, because of the eldest daughter and the family,

The situation is that she didn’t go to school. Behind her, Ah Bu, Ah Shang and Yu Lian all went to school, so we all felt that we were indebted to the eldest sister. Now that Erniu is in school, I will give you a red envelope, which is a little bit of my gratitude."

Xie Fugui also knew that Luo Jin was telling the truth. In fact, if Luo Jinlian had grown up in today's society, she would have been able to go to school. However, she lived in that poor era, so many women could not go to school.

Part of it is that they favor boys over girls, and part of it is that they really have no money.

Luo Zhongfa was actually pretty good back then, but it was just because of his eldest daughter that he had to train his other four children. In many families, none of their children went to school.

"Er Niu, why don't you thank your uncle yet." Xie Fugui said to Xie Jingyan with a smile on his lips.
