Little wealth

When Mr. Fu came to pick them up, Josh and his master Zhao took the children to leave first.

Bai Luoxi sent the maid beside her to see him downstairs, turned to look at the man standing beside him, and asked, "Why are you here, are you done with your work?"

"En." Mrs. Fu picked up the child in one hand, and hugged Fulang's waist in the other. The family of three stood outside the balcony, watching the pedestrians leaving the restaurant and out onto the street, and said: "Okay , let's go in too."

The sound of the drums went to the other side of the street, and the line of spectators also moved in that direction.

When they got out of the street, the number of people on the street was much less than before, and the stalls on the side of the road were still selling things. Young men and women were walking on the street, and many people walking on the road were still carrying a bag A flower lamp.

Several children ran in front, and each of them stretched out a hand to hold his son, who walked between them.Josh turned his head to look at the man who was holding his son's other hand, just in time to meet the man's gaze, and the two looked at each other, so he turned away and smiled.

Seeing that Fu Lang smiled, Zhao He also showed a smile on his face, bent down to pick up his son who was walking in the middle, and held Fu Lang's hand with one free hand.

"Hehehe..." Suddenly being picked up by the sky, Ah Nian let out a giggle, sitting on her father's arms, looking higher and farther, staring at the lanterns all over the street with her big eyes.

The couple walked forward side by side, the child sat on the arms of the father, and the family of three walked further and further away, leaving behind them all the street lanterns and bustle.

The two returned to their shop with a group of children. Both of them, Ah Mu and Mrs. Cao Ping, were still in the shop. Josh passed the snacks brought back from the restaurant to everyone to eat.

They had only been walking for a while, and most of the lanterns in the shop had been sold, and seeing that it was getting late, Cao Ping’s family’s children were still young, so he suggested: “Why don’t we just pack up and go back, to save a while It's too late to go back."

Anian was still sitting on Father's arms, yawning with his mouth open, a tear trickled from the corner of his eyes.

Seeing the little grandson rubbing his eyes with his little hands, Zhao Amu knew that the little grandson was sleepy, so she said, "It's better to go back earlier, but I don't know if Xiaohu and the others are done with their work." Across the street, they still I can see that the people at the barbecue shop opposite have never stopped, there are always people coming and going, and there are still many people eating in the shop.

"You guys are here, I'll go over and discuss with them." Zhao He put the child in his arms on the ground and stood there, glanced at Fu Lang, then turned and walked to the barbecue shop opposite.After a while, I returned to Ali, and told everyone the result of the discussion with them, and said, "I'll send you and the children back first, and Xiaohu and the others will sell them later before going back."

"Oh, that's fine too." Seeing that there were a group of children beside them, Zhao Amu agreed.

The donkey cart back home couldn't hold so many people, so the four boys stayed at the shop in the town to sleep, and Zhao He used the donkey cart to take Fu Lang, the child, and Cao Ping's family back to the village together.

"Wow, woof, woof..." The family's dogs, large and small, stood guard at the intersection, and when they heard their coming back, they barked and ran towards them, chasing after the donkey cart and following them home.

"The child is asleep, be careful."

The child fell asleep on the way, and when getting off the car, Josh reminded the man to be careful to carry the son down, holding a lantern to illuminate the road ahead, and asked the man to carry the child back to the bed in the house.

Josh took off the clothes wrapped around the child, and helped the child take off the cotton jacket and trousers that were worn outside. The interrupted child let out a dissatisfied cry, turned around and continued to sleep. He breathed a sigh of relief when there was no sign of waking up.

"This little kid is just like a little pig when he's asleep. He won't wake up even when thunder strikes." After pulling the quilt to cover the kid, he turned and said to the man who was still standing behind him, "Don't you still want to put the baby on the bed?" Should the donkey be led behind?"

"Well, I'm going to lead the donkey." Zhao He glanced at the sleeping child, turned around and walked out, before stepping out of the door, turned and said to Fu Lang who followed him: "You also stay in the house to rest. After a while, I will boil some hot water and wash your face later."

"Okay, then you go, I won't go out." Originally, Josh wanted to help boil some hot water, but since the man said so, he didn't go out at all. After going out for an afternoon, he came back. I feel a little tired.

Standing by the door, watching the man lead the donkey away, followed by several dogs, he closed the door with his backhand, blocking the cold wind from outside.

The child who slept in the car all the way home continued to sleep when he got home. If he didn't sleep this time, he shouldn't wake up until tomorrow morning.

Sitting on the bed and looking at the little guy who was sleeping for a while, the door of the room was pushed open from the outside, and the man came in with a pot of hot water in his hand, waited for him to wash, and then put the water on the ground Soak his feet.

Putting a pair of frozen feet into the hot water, it felt as if the feet had thawed instantly. A steady stream of heat poured up from the feet, and the whole body felt much more comfortable.While soaking his feet, Josh instructed the man to pour hot water for him. When the man poured him hot water, he took the cup, lowered his head and blew the hot air inside, and asked, "Is Eminem asleep?"

"I just went back to the house, I should have fallen asleep. Is the water very hot? Do you want to add some hot water for you?"

"Okay, then you can add some hot water to me."

Hearing Fu Lang say yes, Zhao He opened the wooden bucket filled with hot water, scooped out a spoonful of hot water from inside and poured it into the wooden basin.Josh felt that the water temperature had heated up a bit, and hurriedly shouted: "It's okay, it's okay, there's no need to add it."

Zhao Hecai stopped, poured the remaining water from the water ladle back into the wooden bucket, covered the wooden bucket, stood there and glanced at Fu Lang who was sitting on the bed soaking his feet, and walked over suddenly. He squatted down in front of him and reached into the basin to help Fu Lang wash his feet.

Even Josh was taken aback. He didn't expect that this man would suddenly squat down to help him wash his feet. He was taken aback for a moment before he came back to his senses and hurriedly shouted: "Hey, I don't need you. Get up. I'll make bubbles myself." Enough."

"I'll squeeze it for you, it will make you feel better." Zhao He didn't let go, and helped Fu Lang pinch the sole of his foot with his hand.

The man held his feet with his rough and broad hands and kneaded them. Josh sat on the bed, looked down from his angle, just saw the man with his head lowered and was seriously helping him pinch his feet, feeling a sense of helplessness in his heart Moved by words, he said to the man, "It's great to be with you..."

"Really, do you know that your husband treats you well?" Zhao He looked up at Fu Lang, smiled, and continued to lower his head to wash Fu Lang's feet. The small feet were not as big as his slap, and they were white and tender. This is a pair of beautiful feet.

After helping Fulang clean the seams between his toes, he picked up the dry cloth towel hanging aside, dried Fulang's feet, stuffed him into the bed, and said, "Go to bed first, and I will wait for you to sleep." Just wait."

"Well. Come back soon."

"it is good."

Josh was lying on the bed, watching the man bring him water for washing his feet and going out, and he didn't forget to close the door when he left, he couldn't help laughing.

The child sleeping inside hid his little face in the quilt. He stretched out his hand to help the child press the quilt, allowing the child to expose his face and nose to breathe, and reached out to stroke the boy's soft hair.The little guy in his stomach is also obedient, and he should have fallen asleep, very well-behaved in his stomach.

But in the end, he fell asleep before the man came back.

So when Zhao He came back to the room from the outside, what he saw was a picture of one big one and one small one falling asleep on the bed. The corner of his mouth curved slightly, he closed the door with his backhand, and walked towards the big bed.

It wasn't until very late at night that he heard the sound of a donkey cart coming back outside. Knowing that it was the rest of the family who had returned, he got up, put on his coat and went out. After a while, he came out in the cold When he came back, he didn't forget to warm himself by the fire before going to bed.

Fu Lang who was sleeping in the middle still maintained the posture when he left, and lay back on the bed again. Zhao He reached out and hugged Fu Lang who was sleeping in his arms, bowed his head and kissed Fu Lang on the forehead, only then was he satisfied Sleeping with Fulang in his arms.

***

After the Lantern Festival, the year is truly over.

Years later, Anyang Town also slowly regained its popularity. After everyone spent a cold winter at home, many people also walked out of the house, and peddlers also came out to do business, and the number of peddlers selling things on the street gradually increased.

It’s just that I haven’t seen any boats passing Anyang this month. It’s still the first month of the month, and it’s still snowing in the north, and some river sections are frozen. At least I won’t see any boats stopping at them until after March. This side of the pier.

There is a market day in the town every few days, and there will be more people in the town on the market day.

The newly purchased shop they bought in the town is already being decorated. If they hurry up, the decoration should be completed by the end of the first month, and the opening of the new store is scheduled for the beginning of February.Therefore, before the new store opens, they must first arrange the staff working in the store, and when the time comes, the new store will also need a shopkeeper to help manage things.

The other people are easier to arrange, but the candidate for the shopkeeper is not very easy to choose.

The shopkeeper is the manager of a store, and he has to manage both internal and external affairs, so they must find someone they can trust and who has this ability to be the manager.

There are only a few people in their family, and everyone has their own familiar and responsible areas. They may continue to open more stores in the future, and they will definitely not be able to do everything by themselves. It is necessary to hire someone to help that's it.

When the whole family sat down to discuss hiring someone, and when it came to looking for the shopkeeper, Josh thought of someone and asked, "What do you think of Cao Ping?" Cao Ping was working under him during this time, Cao Ping is a man he can trust, and the other party is from their village. The child and Fulang are both in their village. Even if something really happens in the future, the monk can escape the temple, unless he doesn't want Fulang. and kids.

"With Cao Ping's ability, he should be able to be the shopkeeper of a shop. Now the oil shop is quite stable, and there are two skilled guys there. The restaurants and restaurants in the town deliver oil, as long as we manage the oil workshop in the village and control the oil production process so that the oil we produce does not have quality problems, the oil sold will definitely be fine." Their family's new oil workshop has already invited people from the village to help build it, and he is also in the village. He is in charge of the oil workshop, so there shouldn't be any problems.

"Cao Ping, that's fine. That kid is a good guy. Since you can trust my brother, then we can let Cao Ping be the shopkeeper. I wonder if Cao Ping is willing to come here." Zhao Hu believes his brother? people's eyes.If it wasn't for the help of his elder brother and elder brother, he would be blind if he had to deal with these things by himself, and he didn't know what to do.

"I'll discuss this with him later, and ask him what he thinks. It shouldn't be a big problem." Josh didn't ask Cao Ping about this matter first, and he will have to talk to someone else later.

After discussing the candidate for the shopkeeper, Zhao Hu asked again, "Also, do we need to hire more assistants in our store? Should we find candidates for this assistant in our village, or go to the town to hire someone?"

"Well, let's see if there is any suitable person in the village first. If we can find a suitable person in our village, we can look for it in the village. It doesn't have to be a kid, as long as there is someone who does things neatly and has clean hands and feet. Brothers can also invite a few, let's find six people first, and then there will be two people at the barbecue shop to help." What Josh considered was that there were quite a few brothers in their village, and although his strength It's not as big as a man, but it's okay to do ordinary work.

What he thought of was that among them, the general status of brothers is relatively low, and many brothers' lives are not very satisfactory, but if brothers can have a stable job and income, their status should be different .

Josh looked at Chen Yan while talking, and said with a smile: "Ah Yan's belly will grow bigger in a few months, and it's not suitable for him to go to town every day. He must find someone to take his place. Wait After arranging the newcomers to go to the barbecue shop, after getting familiar with them, Caiyun doesn't have to go to the shop to help, and now we have a lot of things at home, so it's good to let the two of them stay at home and do things."

After the next year, there is another great joy for their family, that is, Chen Yan is pregnant, so they will not let Chen Yan go to the shop to help with things these few days, and let him stay at home to recuperate.

"Yes, yes, I see that brother Yan finally got pregnant. I don't want to go to the shop recently. I just stay at home to rest and take care of my body." It was not easy for the daughter-in-law who had been in the house for half a year. The good news came out, and the happiest thing was Zhao Amu. Now his two daughter-in-laws are pregnant. When the two daughter-in-laws are alive, he will have two grandchildren, one in the left hand and one in the right. , He is happy just thinking about it.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Chen Yan lowered his head in embarrassment, his face was a little red, but he didn't refute what everyone said.

"Hey hey..." Only Zhao Hu smiled like a big fool, his eyes fell on Fu Lang.

The whole family laughed along.
