Song Yuehua looked at the two little balls in front of her and sighed deeply.
The eldest baby could roll over when he was over 2 months old, but the youngest baby is 3 months old and still lazy all day long.
Xie Wenwu said this to her a few days ago.
"Master, why do I feel that Xiaobao is not as smart as Dabao? Dabao laughs all the time until his teeth are gone, but Xiaobao only sleeps and eats, and he won't be amused no matter how much you tease him."
Song Yuehua had never raised a child and didn't know whether it was normal or not. She asked Grandma Wang, and she said that all children are like this.
But she was still worried, and thought that next time when Uncle Xie came over, she would ask him to help take a look.
If it doesn't work, wait until the weather gets warmer and then take the patient to the clinic to have a look by a doctor.
After a long time, the three finally came back.
The triumphant Xie Yu, the grief-stricken Xie Wenwu, the remorseful Zhang Rushan, and behind them was Zhou Xiaohu, whose cheeks were red from the cold.
"Daya," Zhou Xiaohu greeted, "Well, my father asked me to ask you if I can study with them."
"sure."
Song Yuehua agreed immediately, but she felt something was wrong. "Xiao Hu, you've been to school, and they've only just learned to read. Won't this hinder you?"
Zhou Xiaohu chuckled, "I just went to learn a few words. Grandpa said that even if I can't pass the imperial examination, being able to read is better than many people."
"Yes, that's right!" Xie Wenwu continued.
"It's enough to be able to read. We don't need to take any exams for official titles. Why do we have to go to a school? I don't want to go to that crappy place anymore."
After hearing this, everyone became curious.
"Old Xie, have you ever been to school?" Zhang Rushan lay on the kang, asking in disbelief.
Xie Wenwu snorted, "My dad sent my third uncle to study, and he didn't want to leave me behind. But after just two days, he ran into a lunatic with disheveled hair. He had a fight with him, and then he was sent back. Since then, I have been studying at home with my third uncle."
"Why is there a madman in the school?" Song Yuehua asked curiously.
Xie Yu said, "He's not crazy at all. Uncle San said that he was the county magistrate's youngest son. Although it was Big Brother who was beaten unilaterally, they were still afraid that the county magistrate would cause trouble, so the school sent Big Brother back that day."
Zhou Xiaohu often heard his grandfather talk about the county magistrate's reputation. Now when he heard that Xie Wenwu dared to fight with the county magistrate's son, he immediately admired him and said, "Brother Xie, you are really awesome!"
Xie Wenwu rubbed his nose and said complacently, "It's okay!"
Looking at these two people, Song Yuehua didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Didn't she hear that it was a one-sided beating?
Zhang Rushan was still reasonable and asked, "The county magistrate really didn't come to cause trouble?"
"No." Xie Yu thought for a moment, "The man himself didn't want to say anything. Someone instigated him to file a complaint and wanted to expel Third Uncle from the school. In the end, he also got beaten up."
Xie Wenwu said, "I said that guy is a lunatic."
It was indeed quite crazy, everyone thought so.
From that day on, Zhou Xiaohu also joined the study group.
However, according to Song Yuehua's observation, studying is secondary for this kid, his main purpose is probably to come for the kang.
Every afternoon, Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu and Ruchu went to another room to do needlework. On this side, on the kang, except for Zhang Rushan who was practicing calligraphy seriously, the other two were chatting there.
"Old Zhang, aren't you tired of practicing calligraphy every day?" Xie Wenwu was curious and asked.
After Zhang Rushan finished writing, he looked up and said, "My family is not as well off as you two. If I don't seize some opportunities, I will never have a second chance in my life."
Xie Wenwu nodded. Zhang Rushan was indeed much better than the two of them in studying.
If he could be sent to a good school, he would surely be successful.
"If I were like you, grandpa would be so happy that he would go crazy. From my father to my second uncle, and then to me, three people were sent away and three came back. I'm afraid our Zhou family will have no chance of studying." Zhou Xiaohu said helplessly.
Zhang Rushan smiled and said, "Don't think so. Everyone has their own strengths. I'm good at reading, and you're good at raising pigs. Just do your best."
While Xie Wenwu was still thinking, Zhou Xiaohu had already reacted and said angrily, "Zhang Goudan, why should I raise pigs while you study? Can't I do something else?"
"Zhang Goudan?" Xie Wenwu quickly grasped the key point, "Old Zhang, didn't you tell me your name was Zhang Rushan?"
Zhang Rushan looked like he had eaten shit.
Zhou Xiaohu on the opposite side quickly added fuel to the fire, "Hey, it's not surprising that you don't know, Old Xie. Goudan only changed his name recently. Everyone has been calling him Goudan for so many years, how could he change it so quickly? Don't you think so, Goudan?"
"Oh~"
Before Xie Wenwu could speak, Zhang Rushan hurriedly said, "Old Xie, you lost the bet, but you still owe me something. Now listen carefully: you can only call me Zhang Rushan."
Xie Wenwu's happiness disappeared before it even reached his mouth.
“And you!”
Zhang Rushan threatened Zhou Xiaohu, "Tell me, what would happen if the village head knew that you hang out here every day?"
Zhou Xiaohu's happiness also disappeared.
Listening to the opera being sung next door, Song Yuehua held the twins in her arms with a faint smile on her lips.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Someone knocked on the door. Song Yuehua's expression became stern. She put Dabao and Erbao down, got off the kang, and went to open the door.
"Sister" "Sister Song"
Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu said worriedly at the same time.
Song Yuehua smiled and said, "Nothing, don't move, I'll go take a look."
When she went out, Xie Wenwu, Zhang Rushan, and Zhou Xiaohu had already come out. Song Yuehua said to them, "I'll go take a look."
When I opened the door, I saw a woman with thin clothes, messy hair, sunken cheeks, and a crazy look.
When he saw it was Song Yuehua, he was startled at first, then he shouted, "Where is she? Tell me, did you hide her?"
Song Yuehua was surprised that it was Zhu Zhenzhen. She said coldly, "What are you talking about? You crazy woman, get out of here!"
"fraud!"
Zhu Zhenzhen yelled first, then immediately begged, "Mom, is my mom with you? Please tell me..."
Song Yuehua did not show any mercy. Instead, she said sternly, "What a joke! Don't you know where your mother is? You come to me and act like a jerk. Do you really think everyone is your mother? If you want to find someone, go to the government office and look for her!"
After saying that, Song Yuehua pushed the door hard and closed it.
After entering the house, Song Yuehua told Granny Wang about the situation outside. "If Granny thinks this is inappropriate, I will go and get the person back now."
Granny Wang looked numb and said calmly, "No need, you handled it very well. That's it. The relationship between her and me as mother and daughter has ended. I am sorry to cause you trouble."
Zhu Zhenzhen knocked on the door for a while, but no one came to open it, so she stopped.
After everyone left, Song Yuehua went to Zhou Lizheng's house and told him about the situation between Granny Wang and Zhu Zhenzhen.
Song Yuehua and Grandma Wang both live at the end of the village, so no one would come unless there was something going on.
No one knew that Granny Wang lived in Song Yuehua's house except the Zhang and Zhou families.
Song Yuehua specifically informed the head of the village so that he would have confidence that he would not let anything out if Zhu Zhenzhen came to visit him.
Zhou Lizheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
