"Dad, the big baby is crying." Xu Fan heard Xu Dawa's voice.

"Well." Xu Zhaoying.

"Why are you crying?"

"I don't know, leave him alone, come and wash your hands."

Xu Zhao put away the more than 300 yuan, dragged Xu Fan to squat beside the porcelain basin, washed his hands with fragrant pancreas, and gathered around the chopping board for dinner.

During the period, the noise from the next door continued, but it did not affect Xu Zhao in the slightest. Xu Zhao also did not allow his father and mother to take action, lest they fall into Xu Zuocheng's tricks.

It was not until the end of dinner, when the next door finally stopped, Xu Zhao gave Xu Fan a bath. Before, Xu Fan was able to bathe in the yard, but now it was cold, so he could only take Xu Fan, who was sitting in a wooden tub, to the hut to wash.

"Dad, the big baby doesn't cry anymore." Xu Fan said while holding the edge of the pot with his little hand.

"Yeah." Xu Zhao responded.

"dad."

"Don't talk, don't move, take a shower."

"dad."

"Still talking."

"dad."

"..." Xu Zhao was not polite to Xu Fan, and directly scratched Xu Fan's tickling, making Xu Fan giggling and giggling. After reaching the bed, he even said mischievously, "Dad, come, dad, come, scratch." .

Scratch your head, scratch your head!

Xu Zhao directly put Xu Fan, who was wearing a torn apron, on Xu's mother's bed, then took a bath by himself, then washed clothes in the yard, and washed Cui Dingchen's handkerchief by the way.

After washing, he sat in the yard and meditated. It was autumn. Although Nanwan Village was hot during the day, it was cool in the morning and evening. The popsicle business stopped a week ago, and his income will be reduced by more than half in the future, but he still has some contacts. I can't stop selling popsicles and moon cakes, so I lost this market. Just thinking about it, a little milky voice came from the hut.

"dad!"

It's Xu Fan again.

"dad!"

"What?"

"You come."

"Come for what?"

"Come hold me to sleep."

"..."

This, this is really a sweet burden, Xu Zhao got up and walked into the hut of Xu's father and mother, and carried Xu Fan out, who was wearing a torn apron. Before he entered his hut, a cool wind blew, Xu Fan shivered, and Xu Fan shivered. Fan immediately hugged Xu Zhao tightly.

Xu Zhao hurriedly carried Xu Fan into the hut. When he lay on the bed, he heard the wind whistling outside the window and felt the breath of autumn. It was time to buy new clothes and quilts.

So the next morning, after breakfast, Xu Zhao not only brought Xu Fan, but also Xu's father and Xu's mother. The whole family went to the county town, and let Xu's father and Xu's mother see the store for a while, while Xu Zhao and Cui Qingfeng Come to Choi's house together.

Mother Cui hadn't seen Xu Fan for half a month, so she hurriedly hugged her and gave Xu Fan something to eat.

Xu Fan chatted with Mother Cui while he was eating.

Mother Cui asked kindly, "Sanwazi, do you miss Grandma Cui?"

Xu Fan replied, "I think about it."

"What do you think about Grandma Cui?"

"I miss Grandma Cui...I think...I can't remember."

Mother Cui laughed when she heard it, and hugged Xu Fan and kissed it lovingly.

Cui Qingfeng laughed after hearing this.

Xu Zhao ignored Xu Fan and followed Cui Qingfeng into the main room. Just after entering, Cui Dingchen came out of the west wing wearing a white shirt. Because of his outstanding appearance and tall figure, he was very good-looking.

Cui Qingfeng asked suspiciously: "Uncle, why haven't you gone to work yet? You usually left early, what happened today?"

Cui Dingchen said blankly, "Let's go now."

"Are you coming back for lunch?"

"Depending on the situation, I'm a little busy today."

Cui Qingfeng said, "If you come back, call ahead."

"Understood." Cui Dingchen turned his gaze to Xu Zhao, then nodded in greeting, and then left.

Xu Zhao turned to Cui Qingfeng, first discussed with Cui Qingfeng about Lao Liu's salary, then gave Lao Liu's salary to Cui Qingfeng, and troubled Cui Qingfeng to give it to Cui Dingchen.

Then Xu Zhao and Cui Qingfeng calculated the income of these days. Half of the small shop's income, the wages of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the 200 yuan owed before, totaled 4,256 cents, and handed it over to Cui Qingfeng.

Cui Qingfeng was not pretentious and accepted it. However, he also knew that except for the popsicle business, which was in partnership with Xu Zhao, Xu Zhao was really doing everything else alone, so he could no longer split up with Xu Zhao in the business of Fanxiaodian. , his role is really not that big, he just contributes, no matter how Xu Zhao persuades him, he can't take advantage of Xu Zhao.

Xu Zhao looked at Cui Qingfeng suspiciously and asked, "Why do you have the idea of ​​taking advantage?"

Cui Qingfeng said with a smile: "It's not what I thought."

"Who is that?"

"My dad, my dad said that brothers and sisters settle accounts, and people must know themselves."

"Your father is right."

"Of course, otherwise, how can you teach me and my uncle to be so good."

Xu Zhao nodded with a smile. Indeed, Cui Qingfeng and Cui Dingchen are both excellent, both in appearance and in thought, especially Cui Dingchen, who definitely deserves the word outstanding.

"However." Cui Qingfeng changed the topic and said, "If you have any good ideas and need to contribute, I can help at any time and earn some income."

"Okay." Xu Zhao agreed.

"So, what are you going to do next?"

"Go buy clothes."

"Buying clothes?" Cui Qingfeng immediately thought seriously.

Xu Zhao said, "It's autumn, and I'm going to buy clothes and quilts for my family."

"……So this is ah."

"Well, about the business, I'll think about it and talk to you."

"That's fine, I'll go look at Fan Xiao's shop for you, and you can go buy clothes."

After the accounts were cleared, Xu Zhao took Xu Fan to Fan Xiaodian, and then went to the central street of the county with Xu's mother to buy clothes. After buying his and Xu Fan's clothes, Xu's mother said nothing to waste money on her and Xu. Father's clothes, said to have clothes to wear, after the final negotiation, Xu's mother wanted to buy cloth, saying that she would go home and make it herself.

Xu Zhao couldn't resist but Xu's mother agreed.

Then Xu Zhao took Xu Fan and bought two more quilts, cotton wool, men's coats, a thermos, quilt covers, corduroy fabrics, a pair of leather shoes, a pair of Jiefang shoes, a radio, a row of batteries and a brand new 28 When she was shopping, Mother Xu kept saying don’t buy this, don’t buy that, but Xu Zhao bought everything, and clearly told Mother Xu that all the things in it were very useful, really not Randomly bought.

"What's the use of the radio?" Mother Xu asked.

"Listen to the weather forecast." Xu Zhao said.

"Where's the bike?"

"You can't always ride the Qingfeng family."

Mother Xu had nothing to say.

As a result, after buying these things, Xu Zhao also bought them, buying vegetables and meat, which made the ox cart full. In order to prevent Xu Zuocheng and the others from seeing so many things on the ox cart and becoming greedy, Xu Zhao did not go home immediately. , but stayed in Fan's shop until dark, and then Xu Zhao let Xu's father and Xu Fan sit on the ox cart, and he and Xu's mother pushed them together.

The wind of the autumn night, with its refreshing coolness, makes people feel comfortable. With family members, even if the surrounding is dark, he does not feel lonely. Xu Zhao is in a very happy mood.

At this time, Xu's mother couldn't help but said with emotion: "The country is so good!"

Xu Zhao smiled and asked, "Mom, why do you suddenly feel emotional about the country?"

"The country has given me a good life."

"Well, there must be a country first and then money."

Mother Xu said happily: "And this year's soybeans will not be handed over to public grain."

"Don't pay soybeans for public food?" Xu Zhao was also quite surprised.

Mother Xu said with a smile: "Yes, look at how happy people are in the city and outside the city this year, and they are starting to spend a lot of money, but they are willing to buy vegetables. It is estimated that they will eat quickly while the harvest is good, and they will not be able to eat in winter. "

Xu Zhao asked suspiciously, "Why can't you eat in winter?"

Mother Xu said, "Look at you, don't you know what you ate last winter? Isn't it just pickled vegetables Wowotou, what other vegetables are there to eat, no vegetables."

no food-

no food-

This sentence echoed in Xu Zhao's mind all the time, yes, there is no food to eat in winter, yes, there is no food to eat in winter here, Xu Zhao suddenly became a little excited, he wanted to find someone to talk to, but after a few words, he was reconciled. Mother Xu couldn't tell.

So after returning home, he hurriedly found his small notebook, wrote down his thoughts and ideas, and even drew a picture, which was linked to the house he was about to build, and then took the drawing to find Dad Zhuang. .

Before looking for Dad Dazhuang, he thought of a piece of pork he bought for Dad Dazhuang, so he went to the kitchen and took it out. Just as he was about to step out of the hospital door, Xu Fan followed up again, raising his arms for Xu Zhao to hug.

Xu Zhao had to carry Xu Fan to Da Zhuang's house. He didn't expect that Da Zhuang's house had guests, but it seemed that the chat was over and the guests left. Xu Zhao handed the pork to Da Zhuang's mother, and after pushing and shoving again, Xu Zhao escaped and came to Da Zhuang's father. In front of the bed, seeing Dad Dazhuang frowning and worrying, he was a little puzzled.

"Brother Li, are you uncomfortable?" Xu Zhao asked.

"I'm not feeling well." Da Zhuang's mother replied.

"What's wrong?"

Da Zhuang's mother said, "I can't go out to make money, so I'm worried."

Xu Zhao asked, "Why go out to make money?"

Dazhuang's mother immediately explained to Xu Zhao that a relative of hers went out to work for half a year and earned nearly 200 yuan. This time, she came back on August 15th and said that the factory was still short of people, so she could bring ten people to work. I was scrambling to go, but for the sake of my relatives, I found Dad Dazhuang, who wanted to go.

But Dazhuang's father was injured this time, and Dazhuang's mother still has a big belly. Dazhuang's grandparents are old, he can't walk away, can't make money, and is sulking.

After hearing this, Xu Zhao looked at Dad Dazhuang and said, "Brother Li, aren't you good at building a house? You can also make money by building a house, so you don't have to go out of town."

Dazhuang's father said: "No one builds a house every day, and they don't make much money. It's almost winter, and the New Year is coming. Your sister-in-law will have a child after the New Year. When you go back to Dazhuang, you have to go to school. You need money everywhere. Make some money, it's a tough day."

Xu Zhao pondered and said, "Brother Li, if you don't mind, build a house for my family, how about you follow me?"

Dad Dazhuang was taken aback and asked, "Follow you, what are you doing?"

Xu Zhao looked at Dazhuang's father and said clearly, "Grow vegetables."
