Xu Laoliu kept these words firmly in his mind: "Dad, I know, don't worry, I won't forget.

However, I think it would be better for you and mom to come to Kyoto.

Even if you don't do small business, you can still make money by picking up trash.

Mom is not in good health and can't do heavy work. You go outside to pick up the trash and I'll clean it up at home. If you two work together well, it will definitely be better than staying at home."

This made Xu Datong very excited: "Picking up trash can really make money."

Xu Laoliu patted his chest affirmatively and assured loudly: "Yes, of course, Dad, Wang Laosi also wants his parents to come to Kyoto to pick up trash, you just happen to have company.

We don't ask for much.

I earn ten yuan a day, which is three hundred yuan a month. It’s better than back home.”

When Xu Datong heard this figure, he was shocked: "How can you earn that much in a day? Are you kidding me?"

“No, I’ve tried it, and I can really earn that much. Dad, you should discuss it with Mom.

I really think it's okay.

Besides, my mother is in poor health. The doctors in Kyoto are very good. Maybe she can get better after taking some Chinese medicine.

You said so, right?

Xu Datong's heart skipped a beat. His wife's health was a major concern for him. "Okay, I'll go to Wang Laosi's house later to ask about the situation. If they go too, I'll go with them."

Xu Laoliu didn't expect to be persuaded by him: "I heard from Sister Jiajia that my brother-in-law's comrade-in-arms works at the Railway Bureau. I went to find my brother-in-law and asked him to help buy some train tickets."

Xu Datong didn't like to trouble others, so he hesitated: "This is not good.

Let’s do this.

I'll ask your eldest sister to take us there."

Xu Laoliu is the sixth child.

The first five are sisters.

The same as Xu Xiaoyao, but the only difference is that Xu Datong is not harsh on his five daughters, and he will continue to send them to school as long as they can and want to study.

So among his five daughters, the one with the lowest education level has studied up to the third grade of primary school, and those with higher education have graduated from junior high school.

Among the five daughters, the most educated one is the eldest daughter.

The year Xu Jiajia opened the school, his eldest daughter had already become a wife and was not suitable to go.

When Xu Laoliu heard this, he thought it was a good idea: "That's fine."

…

Shifeng Village.

Xu Datong just hung up the phone.

The bell rang again.

He thought it was Xu Laoliu calling, so he picked up the phone and asked, "I've already explained everything so clearly, why are you calling again?"

Wang Laosi recognized Xu Datong's number and said with a smile, "Uncle, it's me, Wang Laosi. Please call my dad to answer the phone."

Xu Datong was embarrassed for a moment: "Yes, Lao Si, okay, okay, I'll hang up first, please wait ten minutes and call back."

Wang Laosi: "Okay——"

Hang up the phone.

Xu Datong ran to Wang's house and said, "Da Pao, Da Pao, your fourth son is calling. Da Pao, answer the phone."

Dapao, that is, Wang Laosi's father.

Dapao heard someone shouting and immediately ran out of the house: "Here I come, here I come..."

On the way back to the village chief's house, Xu Datong asked Dapao: "My sixth son asked me to go to Kyoto. He said that the fourth son would call and ask you to go too."

When Dapao heard this, he forgot to run. He stopped and stared at Xu Datong blankly: "Let us go too? Isn't he still unemployed? If we go there, it will only add to his burden! How can this kid be so stupid!"

Xu Datong: "There are jobs. My sixth son works in the technical department and earns over 300 yuan a month. He wants to rent a room for us and says we can go to Kyoto to pick up trash."

When Dapao heard that it was over 300 yuan a month, he took a deep breath and said, "So much? No, I have to answer the phone quickly and hear what Lao Si, my old man, has to say."

The two of them arrived at the village chief's house. Not long after, Wang Laosi called. Dapao took the phone and asked, "Is that Laosi?"

"Yes, Dad, the school assigned me a job that pays 300 yuan a month. I thought you and Mom have worked hard for most of your lives, and it's time to enjoy your life. I want to bring you to Kyoto."

Dapao grinned, tears welling up in his eyes: “Okay, okay, three hundred is good, I knew you were a contender.

If you want to enjoy life, forget it.

Your mother and I are not yet sixty, we are still young and capable."

For the sake of the children, no one wants to hold them back.

"Dad, I've already rented the house. If you don't come, the landlord won't rent it to me.

Oh, in addition to renting a house, I also bought daily necessities, cotton wool and other things.

If you don’t come, I’ll throw all of this away.” Wang Laosi said this deliberately. He knew the old man wouldn’t agree, so he had to use his trump card.

When Dapao heard this, his face turned green. This kid didn't know how expensive food and fuel were until he ran a household. "You've only studied for a few years, but you've only learned a few useless things."

Wang Laosi asked directly: "Are you coming or not?"

Dapao was afraid that Wang Laosi would really throw away all the daily necessities he had just bought, so he had to compromise: "I'll go, isn't it okay for me to go?"

Wang Laosi on the other end of the phone grinned: "That's right. Dad, come with Uncle Xu."

Dapao was very angry and said impatiently, "I know, is there anything else?

Nothing else, I'm hanging up."

Having said everything that needed to be said, Wang Laosi really had nothing more to say: "Before you leave, remember to call me a day in advance and let me know. I'll take some time off to come pick you up."

Wang Laosi gave a number to his father.

Hang up the phone.

Dapao looked at Xu Datong and said, "We're going too."

Xu Datong nodded. "Okay, you two, the three of us, that's five tickets in total. I'll go home and then go to my eldest daughter's place and ask her to take us there."

Back home.

Xu Datong told his wife that Xu Laoliu asked them to go to Kyoto.

Liu Ping's pale face froze for a moment: "Going to Kyoto? He's over there and hasn't established himself yet. If we go to Kyoto, it will only increase his burden. No, no."

Xu Datong continued, "Lao Liu said that you can earn ten yuan a day by picking up trash over there. I thought, I'll go outside to pick up the trash, and you can clean and sort it at home. Lao Liu also said that the doctors in Kyoto are much better than those in the town hospital. When we make some money, we'll take you to the hospital. Maybe you can get cured!"

Liu Ping was stunned again: "How can you earn so much in a day?"

Xu Datong nodded: "Yes, that's what Lao Liu said. The child is honest and doesn't like to lie. It should be true."

Liu Ping is uneducated, but he is a good accountant: "Ten yuan a day, three hundred a month, more than three thousand a year, which is thirty yuan a month for living expenses, and I can still save three thousand a month.

Go, go."

I work so hard at home and only earn a few hundred yuan a year.

Seeing that she agreed, Xu Datong smiled and said, "Okay, pack your luggage, I'll go find my eldest sister and ask her to take us there.

oh.

I forgot to tell you that Dapao and his wife are going too."

"What? You're going to Kyoto too?" Xu Damei, Xu Laoliu's eldest sister, looked at Xu Datong in shock. "No, the youngest one doesn't have a job yet. Why are you going there? Wouldn't that just add to his burden?"
