Wen Family Has a Wife

The distance between the academy and the main street is not very far, and it took about two quarters of an hour to drive the donkey cart. Wen Youshan just arrived outside the school when he heard the sound of reading in a loud voice, and there was no one in the alley, so he hurriedly drove the donkey cart. After setting it up, he walked in lightly, looked out the window, and found that only the children were studying inside, and the husband was nowhere to be found. Now he was relieved.

The students closest to the window called for help, and the two boys ran out immediately. They hadn't seen each other for more than half a year. The two children have grown a lot taller, but they were thin and looked malnourished.

Wen Yuanliang was stunned when he saw his father grinning for a while, frowning and frowning, as if singing a play, "Father, why are you here? Are you busy?"

Wen Youshan came back to his senses and said absent-mindedly, "Your mother said you should have a holiday, and let me pick you up."

The two brothers looked at each other, Wen Yuanliang pondered: "Alright, some people in the school have more fields and leave early, so let's go back today, second brother, go and pack your luggage, I'll go and tell Mr. ."

Wen Yuanhong nodded again and again, and led Wen Youshan to the school next door. Wen Youshan had never come back since he sent the children over to have a look. Seeing that the things inside were simple and even a little shabby, he was speechless for a while.

At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from the next door, "Erlang, listen to your mother, drink this chicken soup first, studying is so hard, you can't lose your health, let me tell you, there are people selling sea fish on the street in Qianer, Do you like to eat fish? I heard that eating fish can nourish your brain..."

The woman's voice was intermittent, Wen Youshan listened to it, his eyes widened in vain, Wen Yuanhong turned around after packing up, and was almost scared to death by his father, "Father, what's wrong with my son?"

His father's eyes clearly wanted to beat people up, but the big brother didn't anymore, it was miserable.

Wen Yuanhong shivered for a long time, and before Wen Youshan's slap came, he only waited for his complicated eyes, "What are you thinking about, hurry up when you put away your things."

As a result, the father and son left the school one by one, the big one with a breeze, and the small one hanging on his body, attracting a lot of people's attention.

Wen Youshan kept thinking about things, but he didn't care. When the father and son got into the donkey car, Wen Yuanliang also came out, jumped into the car and said with a look, "Dad, let's go."

Along the way, Wen Yuanhong stared at the baskets from time to time, glanced secretly, swallowed hard, and looked at Wen Youshan eagerly, "Dad, has our family made a fortune?"

One basket was full of pork, the other was cloth, and the other basket was full of miscellaneous things, much older.

Wen Youshan raised the corner of his mouth, gave the child an appreciative look, and said in a good mood: "Your mother said that you would go back and make some good repairs for you, and also make you two new clothes, I have no idea. This treatment."

Wen Youshan said half-jokingly and half-sadly.

The two children were amused and laughed. Wen Yuanliang only found out that he was not on the way home after leaving the county seat, "Father, you are going the wrong way."

"That's right! Let's go to Zhoujia Village to buy a sheep." Wen Youshan looked relaxed, but the two children were frightened and said in unison, "Buy sheep?"

Although a sheep is not as valuable as a donkey, a sheep still costs five or six taels of silver. If it is a ew, it is more expensive. This thing can't pull a cart or go to the ground. Can you buy meat? It's too bad.

Seemingly knowing what the sons were thinking, Wen Youshan explained: "Your mother plans to get goat milk to supplement your body in winter, these fathers don't understand, but the natives in the village did say that goat milk feeds people, all of you children do. How can I grow up without eating good food? Our village is poor, and no one raises these precious animals. Before, I just wanted to give you drinks, but I didn’t have the condition. This time, my father bought it back, let’s try it ourselves, by the way. , have you used up the money you gave to you before? Not enough for Dad to give it."

"Enough is enough, it's not even spent!" Wen Yuanhong shouted, covering his mouth with hindsight, not daring to look at his brother's face at all.

Wen Yuanliang was so angry that he looked at Wen Youshan and explained embarrassingly, "We eat and live in the school.

There is no time to go out, and the money saved can buy pen, ink and paper. "

"Not enough things?" Wen Youshan had no idea about the consumption of those things.

Wen Yuanhong hurriedly helped his brother and said: "It's not that it's not enough, it's that it's used fiercely. The master said that we have to practice calligraphy, and we have to keep writing. If we don't talk about it, the paper is also consumed quickly. Save up just to buy these things.”

Wen Youshan was not angry, but instead asked, "Is this enough?"

The two children looked at each other and wanted to say enough, but they didn't want to lie, so they fell silent for a while.

"I know, next time you go to the county seat and give you ten taels of silver, is it enough?" Wen Youshan asked.

The two children nodded in shock, "Enough is enough, too much, let's do the math, it will cost about three taels of silver to buy extra pen, ink and paper."

The father gave them 2 taels of silver before, but now it has risen to 10 taels, and the hearts of the two children can't bear it.

Wen Yuanhong asked again, "Dad, are we really getting rich?"

Otherwise, who would be able to take out ten taels of silver without blinking an eye.

Wen Youshan didn't hide it from them, and said earnestly: "Our family does make money, but it's not my father's credit, it's your mother's ability. Last year's talk about raising silkworms and weaving cloth really made her get started. A piece of dyed silk cloth can earn several taels of silver when it is delivered to the county seat. Your mother wove 70 pieces of cloth before, but this time you only sent 35 pieces and earned more than 200 taels.

Half of the silk in the house is still undyed. When you go back, you can do more work and help. Also, don't shout about it everywhere. The wealth and silk are attractive. Although the courtyard wall of our house is high enough, it can't prevent people who care. "

The two children looked solemn, and now they repeatedly promised that they would never say anything.

With this way of getting money, the pressure on the two children is much less. Otherwise, they always feel that studying is burning money, and the family has finally improved, and it will be a tight life for them to study.

The father and son walked while talking, and soon arrived at the boundary of Zhoujia Village. As soon as they entered the village, they could smell the unpleasant smell of sheep in the air, and it was very uncomfortable to mix with feces.

The three of them originally planned to go to the village, but now it's done, they went straight to the first household at the entrance of the village, and asked if they would like to sell ewes. An adult ewe was taken away.

Along the way, Wen Yuanhong kept staring at the ewe behind, for fear that the rope would loosen and the sheep would run away.

Wen Youshan, who was driving the car in front, glanced back and said happily: "When I go back, this sheep will be taken care of by the second child. After the autumn harvest, the house will be built in the front yard, and then the sheep and donkey will be better. shed."

Wen Yuanhong shook his hand and almost loosened the rope. He looked at his father in astonishment, "We still need to build a house!"
