After these words, the room was completely silent, and you could hear a pin drop.
After a while.
Mrs. Xu finally found her voice: "He, he wants to commit suicide?"
Although Mrs. Xu hated it, the baby was hers after all, and her pale face was filled with worry.
Xu Jiajia nodded and said, "Yes, maybe I feel sorry for you and feel ashamed to face you!"
Mrs. Xu cried angrily: "He almost burned our whole family to death. We haven't even hit him yet, but he wants to die first. That brat deserves a beating!"
The captain's wife sighed softly: "Teach him a lesson. What happened has already happened. Beating him to death will not help. Just talk to him nicely."
No matter how angry Mrs. Xu was, she couldn't ignore her son's life or death. If she beat him too hard, he might get so upset that he would run to the river and jump into the river. Her parents-in-law would hate her to death.
"I know. I'll go find him."
When Dawei saw his mother coming, he knelt on the ground and cried for forgiveness: "Mom, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have played with fire. It's my fault. I will accept any beatings and scoldings you may have!"
In the past, if Dawei had caused such a big disaster, Mrs. Xu would have definitely beaten him up, but what Xu Jiajia said made her reflect seriously.
Xu Jiajia's six children have never been beaten, but they are still sensible and obedient. From this we can see that the saying that filial sons are born under the stick and good people are born under the broom is not true.
She took a deep breath, helped Dawei up, and kept her voice as calm as possible: "Tell me, why did you play with fire?"
Dawei couldn't tell his mother's emotions, and his heart ached. "I don't know why, but I suddenly wanted to play."
Mrs. Xu lowered her eyes and looked at Dawei: "Do you understand now that playing with fire is dangerous?"
Dawei nodded vigorously: "I know, I know, I won't dare to do it again."
Little Yiyi came over from the room, her face serious: "Mom said children can't play with fire, it's very dangerous.
Mom also said that children can’t play in the water because it is very dangerous.
There are a lot of things that children can’t play with.”
Xiao Yiyi said this sentence very clearly.
Mrs. Xu was envious. How old was he, yet he understood so much? "Did you hear that clearly?"
Dawei nodded heavily: "I heard it clearly. From now on, I will not play with fire or water."
Mrs. Xu continued, "You caused this fire, and you will bear all the losses!"
Dawei was stunned, as if struck by lightning. "I, I should bear the responsibility? I'm only thirteen years old and can't even earn a few work points. How can I bear the responsibility?"
Mrs. Xu had already thought about it: "You can't earn many work points now, but there is still a future, right?
All losses will be owed to us first, and we can pay them back when we can earn money in the future."
Dawei: “…”
So he was in debt before he even grew up.
Seeing that he was silent, Mrs. Xu raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why? Don't you agree?"
Dawei shook his head: "No, no, I should bear the losses I caused."
From now on, you have to work hard to make money.
I'll ask Xiao Chenchen and the others later if they have any ways to make money.
…
"What? You want to make money? If you had said this a few days earlier, maybe you could have really made some money!" Little Chenchen has loved learning since he was a child. When others could not speak clearly, he could already recite ancient poems, do math, and tell stories to others.
Among six children, he is the smartest one.
Dawei didn't expect Xiao Chenchen to have such a way. His eyes lit up, and he approached Xiao Chenchen and asked excitedly, "What's your way to make money?"
Xiao Chenchen expressed his opinion: "It's Chinese New Year! A lot of people buy couplets, so we can go in and sell them.
However, you are a child, you have no cost and you don’t know where to buy the goods.
Even if I tell you how to make money, you can only watch!"
Dawei: “…”
Little Yiyi ran into the house and took out her piggy bank, saying in a baby voice, "Big brother, I have money, help me make money."
Open the lid.
Xiao Yiyi poured out all her money.
All in all, it’s about thirty or forty yuan.
Dawei was so envious. He had grown up without a single dollar in savings, but Xiao Yiyi was so young and yet she had a lot!
Xiao Chenchen put Xiao Yiyi's pocket money back into the piggy bank: "The New Year is coming soon, it's not easy to operate now, let's go back to Kyoto!"
After the Chinese New Year.
Mom and Dad are going to college.
Without two breadwinners in the family, the quality of life will definitely plummet.
He is the eldest in the family. He has to support the family and not let his younger brothers and sisters go hungry.
Xiao Yiyi obediently took the piggy bank back to her room and hid it safely.
Dawei was unwilling to give up and asked again: "Is there any kind that doesn't cost anything?"
Xiao Chenchen thought of the prey her mother had hunted. This didn't cost any money, but her brother Dawei was still young, so it definitely wouldn't work.
Then he thought of something and said, "Aren't there wild fruits in the mountains?
You can pick some and sell them.”
Dawei was skeptical: "There are wild fruits everywhere, can they be sold?"
Xiao Yiyi is very protective of her big brother and doesn't like others questioning his words. She defended Xiao Chenchen: "If big brother says it can be sold, then it can be sold."
Xiao Chenchen rubbed Xiao Yiyi's head and asked, "Xiao Yiyi, do you trust Big Brother?"
Little Yiyi raised her chin with a proud look on her face: "Big brother is amazing. He can tell stories and recite poems."
Little Star came over and made a name for himself: "I'm pretty good too. I even helped you beat people up. Have you forgotten?"
Little Yiyi blinked her big eyes and thought for a long time before she remembered that it was true: "Second brother has a powerful fist."
