Seventy Little Heads

"Xiangxiang? Have you grown your hair?" Wang Xuan asked Xiangxiang, who was wearing a dress that was as short as her belly button and had two small ties tied around her head.

Xiangxiang touched the little braid on her head, hey hey, the teeth are still uneven, obviously she is in the teething period.

"My sister tied it up for me. She said I'm going to go to the first grade to live."

Wang Xuan was surprised, "Is your mother willing to let you go to school?" Wang Xuan remembered that she had two older sisters and two older brothers above her, and one younger sister at the bottom. The two older brothers stopped studying in elementary school for two years, so The family hadn't been separated at that time, and Xiangxiang's elder sister didn't go to school all day, so she just worked at home and took care of her younger siblings.The second sister seems to be in the first grade. I guess she didn't even write her name Shunliu and she stopped reading.It can be said that the children of Uncle Goudan's family currently do not even have a primary school diploma.

"My mother said that she wanted me to go to junior high school, and like Qingjuan, to go to a technical secondary school and get a job."

Oh, it turned out to be this matter.Chen Qingjuan was admitted to a technical secondary school, a health school, and she is the only person in the village who relies on knowledge to make a living in the country. The whole village seems to have found its way all of a sudden.Although the educated youth went to a technical secondary school to stimulate them severely before, after a long time, it's just like that.After all, my own children can't study well, so I won't care about it soon.

Now that Qingjuan is promising as a girl, many people think that if a son is not good enough, he should train a girl, and he will be able to stand out.Of course, there are also those stubborn people who insist that girls will benefit other families after they learn well, but some people have begun to pay attention to the cultivation of girls. They simply work hard for seven or eight years, and their children will be blessed for a lifetime in the future.

This is also a good thing.Qingjuan's incident played a positive role in the village.

"Okay, go to school and study hard."

Wang Xuan searched for a few hair ropes from a small pile of small things that were no longer ready to go to the stall, and gave her a few hair flowers that had been rummaged many times.The little girl was very happy, and put the red flower on the braid on the spot.Not to mention the girl's natural talent for dressing up. She has never kept her hair, and she has only combed it for a few days. She will wear flowers on her head and look very skilled. I saw that she is stable after winding around .

With a dark face and gaping teeth, the little girl is so filthy, shaking the two red flowers on her head, she is so beautiful.

There are families in the village who love girls, and they will buy a few bright hair ropes or hairpins, and some can't afford them, they just cut a piece of rag and tie it.

The miscellaneous things in the small box are all leftovers from the sale.The two put them together, and when a friend came to the house and found that he was missing a button, a trouser chain, etc., he would pick it up and use it.The two of them went to all the towns and township centers they could go to, and the things were basically dealt with, and the rest were not easy to run away.Just keep it at home.

From the summer vacation to the present, the two have been busy making money, and neither has had a good rest.For the remaining few days, the two of them didn't go anywhere and just stayed at home as salted fish.

Now that Wang Xuan is free, he takes Li Si's hand and cooks delicious meals in the kitchen. Li Si is reluctant to let this one go when he cooks.There is not so much meat, but the various oil and salt seasonings brought back before are also very fragrant.There are also all kinds of salted fish and dried goods brought back from the south, and the southern-style sausage that the two of them like to eat most, with a bit of salty and sweet taste, it goes very well with rice.

Li Si also ate so that his face was full of oil, as if all the wrinkles on his face were glowing.

Dafu came to play with the two of them that day, "I won't go to school after graduating from junior high school. My family has younger brothers and sisters who want to go to school, and the family can't afford it. Dagui is also in junior high school. If I still want to go to school, I will eat it." The flesh and blood of parents."

"Then what do you want to do? Farm at home?"

"Anyway, just do whatever job you have. I heard Hanwa and the others say that they were going to help people carry big rocks. It seems that the salary is not bad. He said that it is hard work to do that job, but the income is quite stable."

Goudan and Wang Xuan didn't know what to say, but Dafu's grades were actually quite good, especially after studying with them, but the competition in technical secondary schools was too fierce, and many children of cadres or relatives also earned money, so It's not about being rich.The number of places is limited.Dafu can only go to high school, but his family can't afford it.

But as far as Goudan knows, Dagui's studies are really average. He barely got into junior high school, and his grades were half-dead after a year of study.The younger siblings can't tell in elementary school now, but the test scores of [-] to [-] are not bad.According to reason, if the whole family provides for the rich, even if they study in a junior college in the future, they will be rare college students, and they will also be assigned jobs.

According to Dafu's current grades, he has not been able to be admitted to a technical secondary school, and the other small ones below are even less hopeful.In the end, I went around and didn't read a single one, wasting so much money and time.It can be said that the decision to let Da Fu drop out of school and let his younger siblings go to school is not cost-effective.

But many brothers and sisters are like this, irrational, whoever grows up will automatically take care of the younger ones.No matter how good your grades are, no matter how hopeful you are at home, there is only hope.It is the utmost benevolence for your parents to go to junior high school for you. It is time for you to come out to support your younger siblings and share the burden with your parents.

What can a dog say?He and Wang Xuan are also worrying about their future, making some money right now, but he always feels insecure and always feels that he has to work hard.Because they only have themselves, and basically have no one to rely on.

Wang Xuan patted Dafu on the shoulder. "It's ok, I will be a man who can support himself in the future, and the two of us have to be rice worms. I don't know when we will be the first, but we can only be stubborn. You are very good like this."

Calculated in this way, the same group of them in Xikan Village went to junior high school, Dafu stopped studying, Qingjuan went to technical secondary school, and only Goudan, Wang Xuan, and Qizhi continued to study high school.

After saying a few words like this, several people changed to other relaxing topics.

"Hey, do you know what's going on with your two cousins' marriage?"

"I don't know, and no one came to us to tell us. What's the matter?"

The marriage between Jin Bao and Yin Bao is almost becoming a joke in the village, what a wonderful family, doing strange things.

"That's right, the two are twins. Your grandma...their grandma just said that they want to have a wedding together, and I don't know where they heard the rules. They have to be introduced by the matchmaker at the same time. If this is not the case, there will be a problem."

According to the theory, twins who were born on the same day would be arranged in sequence, the older brother must talk about the relationship first and then the younger brother, even though Jinbao and Yinbao don't look alike, they can't do things like this.Unless you are really poor and can't live on, special things are handled specially, but this is obviously not the case now, and it is a bit careless to do so.

"They went to meet two girls together, but the two brothers fell in love with the same girl. They almost got into a fight over who was going to fight with the first girl, which pissed off the other girl. People said they were disgusting , This is preparing brothers and wives together. When the word spread, the girl they both admired was ashamed to death, and she no longer wanted to."

"No, the two brothers in the family are still fighting."

In the past, Jinbao and Yinbao had a good relationship. The children in the village didn't like to play with them very much. Because there was an old lady Li who bumped into something, she would find someone to do her best. The two of them could only play together, or with children younger than them. Play, they take the lead.

Wang Xuan just sneered, "Old lady Li made the blind date for her two grandchildren like the emperor's choice of concubine. She dislikes the short one and the dark one. Sometimes she dislikes her being poor and afraid of dragging her down, and sometimes she dislikes her being powerful. I'm afraid that my grandson will be suppressed in the future. Anyway, those who have a blind date with their children are disgusted all over again. Doesn't this mean that kissing is enmity?"

How could other girls be willing to be picked by you like this?Those who don't like this blind date have to comfort them with good words, and give them some gifts and red envelopes to send them away. Try to make few people know about it. This is good for both yourself and the woman, and their family is better.

"My grandma is not an old lady who doesn't know anything, but she is just confused when she meets his two precious grandchildren."

Every brother in the Li family has no shortage of sons now, and it is not rare, but Jinbao and Yinbao may be born after so many granddaughters. In the eyes of the old lady, it is different. She often talks about it. It's the eldest son and grandson.I am used to loving, and I won't change much just because I don't lack grandchildren later.

The last few days were spent in a leisurely summer. The two were promoted to high school or the county school, and they were familiar with each other. When the day came, they would carry the packed bedding, followed by Qizhi and some who went to study in the county. A few children went to the town to wait for the bus.

Every time the school starts, people will always have a different mood. There are old faces and new faces coming and going on campus, the aroma of the new textbooks that have just been distributed, and the smell of dust and wet floors mixed with the freshly cleaned classroom. It's all different.

The dormitory where the high school lived was not the original dormitory, and the two carried out the bookshelves and the heavy iron stove that existed in the original dormitory.Then he gave the key to the new member of the dormitory and left with his things.

This is the fourth year for the two in the county, and it is different from when they first entered the county, so there is nothing curious about it.After tidying up the luggage, I spent time on the bed in the dormitory, and took out the new textbooks to preview.The past two years are critical. Before that, it was to lay the foundation, and then it was to consolidate the foundation and develop.We'll see if we can get results in two years.

"Brother Goudan, let's go eat something delicious."

"Huh? Where are you going?"

"New restaurant." It's not new anymore, but everyone is used to calling it that.

Goudan's eyes lit up, since the meal that Chen Zhengguo invited them to eat, he has been obsessed with it for almost two years.The taste of braised pork makes me want to eat it in my dreams.Although the two later made some money respectively, Wang Xuan was always reluctant to have another meal. This time Wang Xuan let go, Goudan felt that he couldn't hesitate.
