Chapter 56

Man Bao's eyes were sparkling, and he held the two privet she found without saying a word.

Old Zhoutou and Qian Shi were sitting beside the bed, and they saw the light in the girl's eyes as bright as the star in the sky.

Man Bao raised his head happily and stretched out his little hand to show Old Zhoutou and Qian Shi, "Father, mother, what do you think this is?"

Qian shi recovered slightly and asked with a smile, "What is it?"

"It's privet. My fifth brother picked two bunches for me today. It turns out that they are like this when they are dried. They can still treat my mother."

Qian Shi smiled and touched Manbao's head, looked at her kneeling on the ground, and told her excitedly that they could buy less medicine in the future.

Qian shi listened with a smile, but did not tell her that the medicines were taken one by one, not the same.

Man Bao said: "Let the eldest brother and the third brother go and pick up all the privet virgins and dry them for mother to eat."

Qian Shi nodded with a smile, "Okay, mother will let your eldest brother go tomorrow."

Man Bao was so excited that he didn't want to sleep by himself, so he put down the privet in his hand, climbed onto his parents' bed, and rolled directly to the innermost side, lying still.

Then he looked at his parents with flickering eyes.

Lao Zhoutou couldn't help but patted her fat ass, "You're so old and still sleeping with your parents, are you ashamed?"

"Not ashamed, not shy, all three sleep with big brother and sister-in-law."

"It didn't take long for Santou to talk about it. He's still young, so of course he has to sleep with his parents." In Lao Zhoutou's mind, although the third grandson was the same age as his daughter, and even two months older, in fact, the daughter It was much bigger in his heart.

No way, the children in rural areas are late maturing, they can work, but they are late.

Their children are considered to be sensible early, and that is also because they can keep up with food and drink. Some people, because of lack of food and clothing, look like four or five years old when they are seven or eight years old, and they do not speak very well.

But it's never too early to be full.

At least the entire village, even the eldest son of the white landlord's family, can walk staggeringly in nine months, and can call his father and mother in ten months.

Because of this, they all felt that their Man Bao was the smartest child in the whole village, or even the township.

Also because she is smart, sensible and early, she went out early to sleep in a small bed by herself.

No way, when she was more than one year old, she would complain to Qian Shi, saying that her father snored so loudly that she couldn't sleep at night.

God knows that she fell asleep like a dead pig with her head tilted, and the thunder couldn't wake her up.

When she was two years old, she disliked it even more, and complained to her mother that her father didn't wash her feet, and her feet stink.

So Old Zhoutou gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and took his sons up the mountain to cut down a tree, paid someone to make her a small bed, and asked his second son to weave a bamboo wall out of bamboo to separate the room. , this hatred will stop.

Since then, Man Bao has rarely slept with his parents anymore. But it's a good thing for the child to be close to himself. Old Zhoutou didn't drive his daughter out of bed, but just got out of bed and carried her little quilt over to her.

Man Bao rolled on the bed with his little quilt in his arms, and told his mother about interesting things in the school.

Qian shi listened quietly, asking a sentence or two from time to time to guide her to say more.

So Qian Shi knew that Man Bao knew a lot of characters now. Mr. Zhuang not only taught them to read and write, but also called arithmetic. Her best friend now is the little boy named Shan Bao from the Bai family.

When it comes to Bai Shanbao, Man Bao has a lot to say. After talking about how he was bullied by Bai Erlang, he took advantage of the situation to talk about his family building a house.

Man Bao also said to Lao Zhoutou, "Dad, I've already told Shanbao that I will ask my eldest brother and the others to help, call some more people, and they will be able to build their house in three to five days, so that he can Then you won't be bullied by Bai Er."

Old Zhoutou's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked, "Did the young master say when will his family build a house?"

Man Bao yawned a little and said, "Come on, come on, we'll build it when the place is determined."

Old Zhou Tou was silent, and Man Bao urged him in a low voice, "Dad, did you agree?"

The old Zhoutou said, "I promise, hurry up and sleep, you have to go to school tomorrow."

Man Bao's breathing gradually grew longer, and he fell asleep after seeing her words. Lao Zhoutou couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, "This child is like her father, she falls asleep as soon as she closes her eyes."

Qian Shi gave him a warning look.

The old Zhoutou quickly skipped this topic and said, "I originally wanted to talk to Dazhu and ask him to take Dalang Saburo out to work as a coolie. Since the Bai family wants to build a house, there is no need to run out, just Stay home."

Qian Shi nodded slightly, "The big families are different from us when they build their houses. There is no shortage of stones and wood, and all of them require labor. The work can be done until the end of winter."

The family needs money, and although the landlord's house has to do short work, it is after the autumn harvest, and the work is limited. In the past two days, Zhou Dalang and Zhou Sanlang have nothing to do.

Originally, the Qian family wanted his two sons to pack up and go to work as coolies in the county. Even if they couldn't make money, it would be good to make enough food for themselves. We can save some food at home.

It is a happy event for the Bai family to build a house.

Early the next morning, when Man Bao closed his eyes and washed his face, the Qian family called in his three sons and said, "You go with the fifth, and let the fifth show you what a privet is, and tell you what a privet is. All the fruits that have been picked are brought back.”

Man Bao, who was washing his face, was instantly refreshed, and ran back to his little bed diligently, pretending to be from the bottom of the bed, in fact, he took the string of privet virgins from Keke and gave it to the eldest brother, "That's it, eldest brother, you guys If you see rare plants in the mountains, such as those that don’t exist near us, flowers and plants are fine, and fruits are fine, just pick them up and bring them back to me.”

Zhou Dalang and his brothers all know that Man Bao likes to pull flowers and plants since he was a child. In the past, she often went to the vegetable garden at home to trouble those vegetable seedlings that had not grown up. She had to pull out everything she saw.

He glanced at his mother, agreed, took Privet and went out.

Then Qian Shi said to Man Bao, "Let's have breakfast, you'll be late for school later."

Man Bao responded and ran to the main room, but instead of going to the kitchen to eat, he first slipped into the room of Thursday and the others.

The four, five, six and three brothers lived together, and Shirou was about to go out with a hoe, and Wuwu was ready, so Manbao muttered to him, "Brother, be careful on the way, if you see any more Livzhenzi, just pick them all back, that's my mother's medicine."

Wu Wulang didn't understand how he fell asleep, and the fruit became his mother's medicine, but he nodded and asked, "Manbao, can you tell your friend and give us a little more next time? Sugar, one hundred is a little too little."

He said, "I'm going to ask Miss Fu Er to introduce us to a few more guests. I think selling sugar is more profitable than selling flower baskets. Don't you pay ten for a penny?"

Man Bao was reluctant to spend so many points, she still had to keep it for her mother to buy medicine, so she refused: "One hundred pills a day is not much, wouldn't you sell a little less to Miss Fu Er? She is alone, eating Too much sugar can cause tooth decay, this time you go to the county seat, if she still wants to buy it, you tell her that people with tooth decay are especially ugly."

Friday Lang: ... Said such a thing to a girl, does he not want to work, or does he not want to do the Fu family's business anymore?
