Chapter 439 Da Bao's Howling Demonic Cries
"Third Aunt, I think it would be best to find Fourth Aunt's house that is closest to yours. That way, you and Third Uncle can eat at her house in the future."
Shu Yu spoke with an air of seriousness, and Liang Shi's expression froze upon hearing it.
She was about to deny it when Shu Yu continued, "Actually, I think this is pretty good. You can focus on making doll covers and don't have to think about buying groceries and cooking every day. Then you can give a portion of your monthly food allowance to your fourth aunt, and your fourth aunt can also earn a little. It's a win-win situation for everyone, don't you think?"
The old lady came out at this moment, and upon hearing this, immediately clapped her hands, saying, "I think it's a good idea."
Liang said, "..." I think it's not acceptable.
Their family is fond of good food; even if they don't have much money, they'll still occasionally treat themselves to some meat and vegetables.
If they eat with their sister-in-law and have to pay, wouldn't they be losing out?
If they give too little money, their sister-in-law can only cook a few dishes, and they won't get to eat meat. But if they give too much, they'll feel bad about it, and their sister-in-law's family will benefit from it.
No, no, you can't.
Liang chuckled dryly, "Look at what Ayu is saying. Although my cooking skills aren't great, my Sanzhu likes my cooking. You know, we women don't have many ambitions. We're satisfied as long as our men like the food we cook, right? Besides, it's not good to sit here making doll covers all day. We need to move around and do something else occasionally, right?"
The old lady glanced at her sideways. "You actually have this kind of awareness? Fine, if you don't want to, we won't force you. But your fourth sister's family isn't well-off either. If you go to her house for a meal in the future, remember to bring back the food. Otherwise, you can let your fourth sister make this doll cover."
The old lady did let Lu Sixing help make doll covers, but her family was still small, so she couldn't make many. But even a small amount was fine; it would help supplement the family income. Life in the county town was by no means easy.
Liang dared not say anything more. So, it is said that a person with a weakness is like someone whose neck is being choked and who cannot take advantage of others at will.
Fortunately, she was very proactive in helping Lu Sixing find a place to live.
She hadn't been there long, but she was quite familiar with the area, and soon listed three or four suitable courtyards.
It doesn't need to be very big, since the rent is about the same as theirs anyway.
Finally, they rented a small courtyard about five or six houses away from Lu Laosan's house.
The rental procedures were completed quickly, and after the old lady had been busy with all that, she finally asked about Da Bao's school enrollment.
Mrs. Liang was delighted when she talked about this. “Mr. Yu said that our Da Bao is very smart, but he’s restless and can’t sit still. If he could sit still, he’d be a natural candidate for the imperial examinations.”
The old lady didn't believe it; what's the use of being smart if your mind isn't settled?
However, I was still quite relieved to learn that Da Bao was behaving well at the private school and had no problems.
However, just as this thought crossed his mind, a familiar wailing sound suddenly came from outside the door.
Immediately afterward, the courtyard gate was slammed open with a bang, and Da Bao ran in with tears streaming down his face. He rushed to Liang Shi, stomped his feet, and shouted, "I don't want to study anymore! I'm not studying anymore! The teacher has been beating me with a cane for three days in a row. He's deliberately trying to make things difficult for me. Look at my hands, they're all swollen like pig's knuckles. He wants to kill me!"
The crowd present was speechless.
