"You little rascal, all you do is eat all day. Can you be a little more promising?" Leslie Deng's wife Liang Meidi said while grabbing Deng Yangguang's ear.
Deng Yangguang said unconvincedly: "Ouch, it hurts. What's wrong with me wanting to eat meat? Who doesn't want to eat meat every day?"
You have to have dreams, just in case they come true!
"You're dreaming about eating meat every day? It's good enough if you can have enough food to eat." Liang Meidi let go of her hand helplessly, feeling worried.
It is said that a half-grown boy will eat his father into poverty. I have two sons at home, and my husband and I know how to farm. In the future, my sons will have to get married and build a house. The pressure is too great.
I can't compare to my eldest brother, as both he and his wife have jobs, so supporting the family is not a problem. My eldest son is about to graduate from junior high school. I will go to my eldest uncle's house one day to ask if they can introduce him to a job.
After all, my uncle's family only has the eldest sister who is married, and she is usually very good to her husband. If the old woman had not refused to adopt her, maybe her family could have lived a good life.
Deng Qingling said: "Second sister-in-law, don't be angry, Ah Guang is right, there will definitely be meat every day in the future."
Sooner or later the country will make progress and people's lives will get better and better. What we have to do is wait for the dawn to come.
Liang Meidi held her forehead and said helplessly. "You two are indeed aunt and niece, you both have such beautiful dreams." I hope that day will really come.
"Hehehe" Deng Qingling smiled awkwardly. She knew that the country was developing but she couldn't tell everyone. She guessed that no one would believe her even if she told them.
Deng Qingling said, "A Guang, A Mei, you should study hard. It's true that all other things are inferior, only reading is superior."
Liang Meidi said: "What's the point of reading so many books? Those educated youth are all intellectuals. They still work in the fields."
"Don't think studying is useless. Look, when factories recruit workers, they require them to be able to write. And why do production teams require at least elementary school graduates when selecting team leaders, accountants, and branch secretaries?"
Liang Meidi wanted to refute but didn't know what to say.
Deng Qingling continued, "If you can't read or count, you'll probably help people count money if you're sold! And when you buy things, can you tell the difference between the bills? Can you count the amount of money?"
Everyone was unable to refute her. What she said made sense, but people can live well even if they are illiterate!
Although I know that reading can help you learn a lot, who would send their children to school when they can’t even get enough to eat?
You must first solve the problem of food and clothing before you can pursue other things.
"Your aunt is right. When we wanted to study, our family was poor, so we sent our eldest brother to school. After he came back, he taught us. Look, the lives of the three of us brothers are very different now." Deng Lu couldn't help but sigh every time he thought of this.
So no matter how poor you are, you must send your children to school. Apart from other things, it is better to study in the second grade than not to know a single word.
Deng Lu continued, "I can't say we're very wealthy right now, but at least we can afford to send you all through elementary school. For junior high, whoever has the best grades can go."
In two years, when the eldest grandson gets married, the family will be divided. By then, I won’t be able to help anyone. It is impossible to always ask the eldest son to help his brothers. I am afraid that after a long time, the brothers will become enemies.
sigh!
Children are all debts!
"Grandpa, we got it. We will study hard." The children looked at each other and nodded affirmatively.
Deng Lu said: "Good, good, good, they are all good children."
…
The next day.
Early in the morning, before Deng Qingling got up, Liang Haidi came knocking on the door.
When Deng Qingling heard the sound, she quickly got up and opened the door.
"Mom, I just coaxed Haohao to sleep and was about to go look for you!" Deng Qingling said in a low voice.
Liang Haidi said: "Then I will look after Haohao. Be careful when you go out and come back early."
"I know! Mom, you can just stay at home and take care of the kids." Deng Qingling said and went to get a backpack and went out.
This time Deng Qingling learned her lesson. She took out a few oranges from the space and ate them while riding in the car. After eating, she smelled the peel. Sure enough, the refreshing smell of the peel made her no longer carsick.
After getting off the car, Deng Qingling went directly to the hospital's family area and didn't meet anyone all the way to Deng Xiaomei's house.
Deng Qingling went to the door and knocked, "Is anyone home?"
"Oh! It's Aqing! I finally waited for you to come." Sister Liang Jin opened the door and saw Deng Qingling. She really missed her very much.
How could I not miss him? He was the God of Wealth. This time, my youngest son finally found a job.
If the person who sold me the job before had not been related to my family, I probably wouldn't have had to wait so long for this job. Of course, it wasn't a wait in vain. My family promised to give me an extra five kilograms of rice. Otherwise, how could I have waited so long?
"Aunt, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I haven't had time to come to the county town before." Deng Qingling felt a little embarrassed. She had clearly said that they would meet at her mother's house.
"It's okay, it's okay, Aqing, please sit down and wait for a while. I'll go call your sister Xiaomei back." Sister Liang Jin poured her a glass of water and said that she was going out.
Deng Qingling said: "Okay, Auntie, you go ahead. I'll wait here for you to come back."
After Sister Liang Jin closed the door and walked away, Deng Qingling saw that no one was at home and entered the space.
It is not known how much food they want this time, but Deng Qingling is prepared to provide 1,000 kilograms of rice, 1,000 kilograms of flour, 200 kilograms of pork, 20 chickens, and 200 eggs.
The rice was divided into ten bags, each weighing 100 jin, the flour was also divided into ten bags, each weighing 100 jin, the pork was divided into ten portions, each weighing 20 jin, and the eggs were divided into four portions.
After this sale, I will come back before the New Year.
After packing her things, Deng Qingling left the space. Soon after she came out, she heard the door open.
Deng Qingling saw the original owner's sister Xiaomei. She was wearing a white shirt, black wide-leg pants, and white sneakers.
"Aqing, long time no see." Deng Xiaomei said.
"Sister Xiaomei, it's been a long time since we last met. We last met at your wedding." Deng Qingling said.
"Yes, after I got married, I only went back to my parents' home once or twice a year. Every time I left in a hurry, taking the children with me and leaving after dinner. I couldn't stay longer," said Deng Xiaomei.
After getting married, you have no control over yourself and can’t go anywhere you want.
Deng Qingling said, "It's always like this! When you have a child, you have concerns."
I don’t know what to say, so let’s get straight to the point!
"By the way, Sister Xiaomei, what are you going to get this time?"
"I want rice, flour, and meat. How much do you have? How much is one pound?" Deng Xiaomei said.
Don’t know how much you can buy with the money you have?
"Let's keep the price the same as before! We're all family so I won't charge you a high price. Can you eat 500 kilograms of rice, 500 kilograms of flour, 50 kilograms of pork, and 10 chickens?" Deng Qingling asked.
"Okay, we want them all. I don't know when we can go and pick them up," said Deng Xiaomei.
"See you in the bamboo forest in half an hour. Remember to bring the sack." Deng Qingling was too lazy to change places.
