Chapter 387： help (below)

Several people from Liu Zhao’s blushing nodded. This is true. Almost every family in the village has a child who died, so the Liu family is lucky. First, Liu Daqian and the others are willing to feed their pregnant daughter-in-law, and second, the child When they got sick, even if they were poor, they were willing to ask a doctor to buy medicine for the children, so the children all survived.

Several daughters-in-law also know that the four old people are so reluctant because many of their children died, so their hearts hurt. If nothing else, there is a six-year-old brother between Liu Ting and Liu Zhuang. Because of this The children are not too young, so Liu Zhuang is the third child after the shift, but in fact, there are two children who died in front of Liu Zhuang. Because they are young, they are not scheduled.

"Grandpa has no ability, so he can only give you a bite to eat. It is impossible to read and learn craftsmanship. Your father and uncle will not talk about it. If they have that talent, it will be too late. Your big brother is not bad, but Now that he has grown up and is stereotyped, it is impossible to go to study and exams, but do you know how hard your eldest brother works?"

Liu Daqian looked at Liu Lun, "Allen, you live with your eldest brother, tell me."

Liu Lun blushed and said, "Big brother is reading in the moonlight outside even in winter."

"Our family doesn't have the money to light a lot of lamp oil. In the winter, we just study outside," Liu Daqian said, with his eyes slightly damp, "As long as you have half the effort of your eldest brother, I will recognize you even if you don't have that talent, but you guys If you don’t work hard, why do you say you can’t do it?”

The three children bowed their heads in shame.

"If you can learn it, you may be even more beautiful than your big brother in the future, you will have meat every other day, new clothes every year, and you don't have to work with your back to the loess, but you can't earn a few dollars. Appreciate your face, maybe you can't even pay the taxes. If you can't study, you will only be like your father and uncle in the future. No, you are not even as good as them. Now your cousin is looking at me and your second grandfather. Take care of your father on the face of immortality, when we die, the relationship between the two families fades, and these helpers may be gone."

The children were a little frightened, and Liu Daqian looked them in the eyes and said, "So, children, don't put all your destiny in the hands of others, you have to hold some of it yourself, and now, your cousin gave it to you. A chance for you to control the fate of your other half."

Liu Lun, Liu Yang, and Liu Ying's expressions on their faces gradually became firmer, and they knelt down and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, we must read and write carefully, and then go to learn craftsmanship and hold our other half's destiny."

Liu Yang and Liu Ying nodded fiercely.

Liu Daqian smiled with satisfaction, and the daughters-in-law of the Liu family exhaled.

Liu Ying hesitated for a while, but still asked the doubts in his heart: "Grandpa, we only have half of our destiny, where does the other half go?"

His mother Liu Sun glared at her son, Liu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and rubbed her son's hair with big hands: "Good boy, good question."

Then his face turned cold and he said, "Of course the other half is in the hands of the imperial court and God."

A few children opened their mouths wide and said "Wow", "It turns out that God is in charge of our lives."

Liu Yuan rolled his eyes, "What's there to be proud of? If you can't control your other half's destiny, God will give you such a hand, and your life will be lost. If you hold half of it, you might be able to **** it from God. Life."

A few children's eyes lit up and they fought with God for their lives. This kind of thing is very emotional just to hear it.

"You also don't forget that this is the opportunity your cousin gave you," Liu Daqian took advantage of the situation to educate them, "The descendants of our Liu family have never been ungrateful, I don't ask you to repay your cousins, but you must remember Living without causing trouble to them is the most basic thing, understand?"

Liu Lun jumped up and said, "I know, I know, we still have to repay our gratitude. Just like Han Xin said by the second grandfather, if you receive a meal, you will have to repay it with thousands of dollars."

Liu Daqian nodded with a stern face, "Han Xin is just like this for a meal, you say how many good things have you eaten from your cousin since you grew up?"

Several children bowed their heads in embarrassment.

Liu Ting hurriedly said: "Although I want you to study hard, don't work too hard. Your cousin said that you must do everything within your means, but literacy is the most basic, and our family does not ask you for imperial examinations. In the exam, you just need to recognize all the words first, and then go to learn the craftsmanship. Once you have learned the craftsmanship, you will have the capital to survive. If you encounter any trouble with your cousin Bowenbosi, you will reach out and pull it, remember? "

Liu Ting remembered what Mu Yangling said, telling them not to put too much pressure on the children, otherwise it would be counterproductive.

The children responded, and Liu Daqian waved the children out, and the three daughters-in-law happily followed the children out. The children could go out to study and learn crafts, which was something they never dreamed of before.

There were only four old people and two brothers Liu Ting and Liu Yuan left in the house. Liu Daqian turned his head and asked his younger brother, "Xuan is also twenty-two. When are you going to kiss him?"

Liu Erqian said ashamed: "I found it in several nearby villages. It is not difficult to inquire about the situation of our family. We all know that the foundation is not good. Ah Xuan is in the army again, and no one wants to marry."

Liu Daqian pondered for a moment, and said: "Find someone first, it mainly depends on character and family background. If the character is good, and the parents in the family can live well, let's talk about it. If the betrothal gift is higher, we will put together the money, our family The life of the daughter-in-law is also obvious to all, at least our Liu family is not a family to discuss the daughter-in-law, if you want to marry, if you don’t want to change a family, if we put together the money, we can always give a decent betrothal gift.”

Liu Erqian stayed for a while and asked, "Brother, why are you in such a hurry?"

Liu Daqian glanced at his younger brother and said, "You still don't know Ah Ling's temperament? That kid is not afraid to help us, but he is afraid of the trouble the clan will find in the past. Anyway, Ah Xuan is also old, even if we make a swollen face and become fat. , we also want to make outsiders feel that our Liu family is not that thin, and after finding the academy, it was revealed that the children can go to school, half of the money is from Alang, and the other half is borrowed from the eldest sister. Don't tell the truth, just show a little meaning, and I'll go to Xingzhou Mansion tomorrow to find eldest sister."

Liu Erqian's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "This method is good, people in the clan can't always go to the eldest sister."

Liu Daqian nodded with a smile.

Back then, the eldest sister was a new widow and was bullied by her husband's family. The clan did not stand up for her. Apart from them, the eldest sister never walked with the clan in the past few years. Dare to look for trouble, but I have to talk to my eldest sister.

"Where is the little sister-in-law..." Grandma Liu hesitated: "Will you find the big-aunt? Don't lead the trouble to the big-aunt in the end."

Liu Erqian and the younger sister have the worst relationship. Hearing this, he snorted coldly: "She dares! I can't kill her."

Grandma Liu snorted, and Liu Daqian glared at his younger brother and said, "Our brothers are not dead, we can still hold her down."

Aunt Liu agreed to Liu Daqian's proposal without thinking, and said, "If you guys run out of money, I'll have some here."

Liu Daqian shook his head, "You don't need your money, A Ling is responsible, and the family can live well now." The eldest sister only has two granddaughters, how could Liu Daqian really want her money?

My aunt didn't mention it again, but she laughed happily after sending Liu Daqian away, which made Mu Yangling and several children look over frequently. Said: "Auntie's sweetheart, your eldest sister finally gave me a bad breath for my auntie."

Mu Yangling was puzzled, "Auntie, what have I done?"

Auntie laughed and waved: "It's nothing, just let Auntie I secretly have fun."

It was the first time that Mu Yangling and Xiulan saw their aunt laugh so cheerfully. Although they were curious, they didn't find out.
