Chapter 121 Supporting Children to Work on Their Own
"By the way, I brought you a lot of things from Kyoto. I'll share them among you first, so you don't have to bring them back to the village, it will be too eye-catching!"
As Lin Xiuzhen spoke, she held the child and sat in the stroller, while she opened the package in the yard.
Many things in the package are for children, such as milk bottles. She bought these from small vendors. I heard that they came from the other side of the strait. Anyway, the origin is not very clear, but the things should be no better than those here.
Gu Chunlan felt a little embarrassed when she saw that so many things were for her own children.
"What's the big deal? It's a gift from grandma to her granddaughter. Isn't it natural?"
"That's right! Big sis, if I had money, I would buy a lot of things for the baby too!"
"Okay, okay, okay. Then I'll be waiting for your clothes."
Gu Chunlan was cheerful and didn't take it to heart. Gu Jiabao gave people the feeling that he was always painting big rosy pictures for her. As for whether these big pictures could be realized, she actually didn't have much hope.
"Mom, why did you buy so many things?"
"Not much. They are all for children. Children grow fast, so I buy clothes that are a little bigger so that they can be worn when they are older. I don't have to change them often. When they grow older, you can take apart the clothes and make them a little bigger. They can still be worn."
"Okay, Mom, I got it."
Gu Chunlan’s craftsmanship is quite good now. If she had time, she could make a lot of clothes.
"These are for you. I saw a lot of interesting magazines there, so I brought them here so you can refer to them when the time comes. This one is for early summer, and it has some information and clothes. This one is for the second child. Give it to her when she comes back..."
"Jiabao, these are your review materials. I went out of my way to find them. They aren't available here, so I asked you to do the test papers in Beijing. These are some food. I'll take the rest back to the village."
This way it won't be so eye-catching when you bring it back.
"Okay, Mom, you've worked hard. By the way, how are my third and fourth sisters?" Gu Chunlan was still worried about her two sisters' lives in Kyoto.
After all, it was a big city. When the two girls got there, they had no one to rely on and were always worried about being bullied.
"Don't worry, everything is fine. They both work part-time now and can earn money. They say it's for self-training. I think there's no problem, so I let them go. The third brother has also finished filming his previous movie, and he has been invited to do so. It will definitely be great in the future!"
"That's good!"
Hearing that the two sisters were doing well, everyone felt relieved.
Lin Chuxia, on the other hand, looked at Lin Xiuzhen and seemed to have something to say.
"What's wrong? Do you want to tell me something?"
Lin Chuxia nodded, seeming to be a little unsure of how to start.
"Come on, come inside and talk with me."
Realizing that the other party seemed uncomfortable saying it in front of so many people, Lin Xiuzhen simply took everyone to her room.
"What's going on? I can see that you are worried. Is there anything you can't say?"
"Well, Auntie, I see there are a lot of people making clothes out there now, and our clothes are so good, I want to take some clothes and sell them!"
Lin Xiuzhen was also a little shocked when she heard the other party's thoughts.
This kid really has a good business sense.
The reform and opening up had just begun and many people were still taking a wait-and-see attitude, but this girl actually had the idea of joining in.
He even has his own ideas.
"People are living a good life now. I see people wearing colorful clothes on the street. This proves that the market has been opened up. This is also our opportunity, so I want to give it a try..."
After saying this, Lin Chuxia lowered her head.
"I know, Auntie, you have always been very good to me. It seems not very kind of me to go out and work on my own at this time..."
Before she could finish her words, Lin Xiuzhen nodded.
“I think you can sell it.”
"I know, it's a little sudden, but I'm also..."
As Lin Chuxia was talking, she suddenly froze.
"W-what?"
She looked at Lin Xiuzhen in disbelief.
"I said you can do it, but the most important thing for you right now is school. If you want to do it in your spare time, I still support you!"
Lin Xiuzhen didn't beat around the bush. This child's mind was more sensitive than others.
So if you have anything to say, it’s better to say it directly.
Sure enough, Lin Chuxia laughed all of a sudden.
"I know, thank you, auntie, I will do my best and give you all the money I earn."
"No need, you and the boss can just divide it between yourselves. I have my own money."
Lin Chuxia didn't say anything, but she had already made up her mind that if she made money, she would give it all to Lin Xiuzhen.
If it weren't for her, I might not even know where I'd be wandering now.
Although Lin Chuxia had a little understanding of her own life experience, she didn't seem to blame herself so much.
Perhaps now my life has finally come to an end after all the hardships.
After Lin Xiuzhen distributed the things, she went straight back to the village.
Sometimes at night, Gu Xialin would also stay here. After all, sometimes it was too late and the way back to the village was not safe, so she just stayed here.
In addition, Lin Xiuzhen was not at home for a while, so she was reluctant to go back.
But today, after Gu Xialin got off work, she came over and learned that her mother had returned, so she rode her bike back to the village.
When Lin Xiuzhen arrived in the village, she distributed some candy to everyone and asked about the recent situation. She felt relieved to learn that the work was proceeding in an orderly manner after she left.
Li Yue'e came to help, and because she was a down-to-earth and hard-working person, when Lin Xiuzhen left, she handed over all matters to her.
However, I didn't expect that when the other party came to report the situation, he was limping.
"What's going on?"
Lin Xiuzhen frowned. She had only been walking for a short while and this man's leg was injured.
"Oh, that's nothing. I just tripped and twisted my ankle. It's nothing serious!"
"Really? Then you should have a good rest first. If you have anything to say, we can talk later."
"It's okay. I can still walk. The fields are fine recently. But a few of the fruit trees seem to be a little sick. We have found someone, but we can't figure out what the problem is..."
Li Yue'e still felt a little guilty, always feeling that she had not been optimistic enough.
"It's okay, I'll go check it out later, you take a good rest first."
Lin Xiuzhen didn't let the other party follow her. She put her things down and went to take a look at the orchard.
Afterwards, I took the opportunity to talk to the people here about what had happened recently, especially Li Yue'e's injury.
This person was hesitating just now, it's obvious that there is something wrong with him.
