My second brother and third sister have both gone to work, so Fu Xiumei is the only one left in the family.
After Fu Xiumei, who had always had someone to support her, became the eldest child in the family, some of her previous bad habits were corrected immediately.
There's nothing she can do; besides her older brother and sister-in-law, she's the most powerful person now.
With Fu Xiumei and Xiaofeng helping to look after the children at home, Ning Jing can go to work with peace of mind.
However, because Ning Jing wasn't keeping an eye on her, and because Xiu Mei was different from Xiu Chun, she led her two nephews, Fu Xiangdong and Fu Xiangnan, to run wild all over the village.
Fu Xiumei replaced her second brother and became another leader of the children in Xishan Village.
Within a few days, the two boys' skin had darkened by a shade.
Ning Jing mentioned it twice, but Fu Hongxing felt that boys should be more resilient.
When they get a little older, we'll teach them boxing and running. There are too many girls in the family, and they need boys to protect them.
Ning Jing remained silent in the face of Fu Hongxing's plan.
Although most of the side businesses in Xishan Village have stopped, they are still making calligraphy brushes because the order contract is for two years.
However, the required quantity is not very large; the key is to do it well and with high quality.
Therefore, compared to other brigades, even without the sideline businesses of the breeding farm, life in Xishan Village is still much better than in other brigades.
Qin Su, though not very frequently, had visited at least three or four times in the past year.
At first, he avoided Fu Hongxing and Ning Jing, but after learning from Dong Dazhuang that Mr. Lin and the others had received a lot of care from the Fu family, he stopped hiding it.
However, he didn't make it too obvious. The main reason was that Mr. Lin had given him an order not to come to Xishan Village again.
Qin Su's original contract is also about to expire.
Once this batch of calligraphy brushes is completed and sent out, the order contract will be terminated.
It's worth noting that if it weren't for this contract, this side business would have been stopped long ago.
Qin Su sought help from many people and barely managed to keep the contract.
But now, once it's over, there's no longer any excuse to come to Xishan Village.
Fu Hongxing and Ning Jing were unaware that Qin Su had been sobbing on the old man's knees for a long time before leaving Xishan Village with red and swollen eyes.
After seeing Qin Su leave with red eyes, Fu Hongxing and the others went to find Dong Dazhuang after nightfall, carrying a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor).
The two remained silent for a moment, each drinking half a bottle of baijiu before going back to their respective beds and falling into a deep sleep.
Time flies like an arrow; ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Fu Hongguo, now 25, has grown into a young man.
However, Ning Jing was truly heartbroken over him.
Logically speaking, at this age, he should definitely be married.
But he kept saying that since his second sister wasn't married, there was no reason for him, as her younger brother, to get married first.
Moreover, you have to find the right person when you're looking for a wife. You can't just have an arranged marriage. This is a new era.
With just one sentence, Ning Jing was rendered speechless, and all she could do was apologize to the matchmakers who came to her door.
Xiuchun, who is a year younger than Fu Hongguo, has already found a partner.
He was the driver for the transport team. His surname was Luo and his name was Luo Lianghui. He was also Fu Hongguo's high school classmate, but he was three years older than Fu Hongguo.
I am 28 years old this year. I have an older brother, two younger sisters and an elderly mother.
My two younger sisters are already married, and my eldest brother is also married. My mother now lives with my eldest brother.
He lived alone in the dormitory, and his family was anxious for him to settle down, but he had high standards and refused to settle even when he got older.
