Chapter 38 Ignorance


Chapter 38 Ignorance

These two bastards in my family don’t eat enough every day, and they gain weight in vain!

Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu naturally noticed Lu's disgusted gaze, glanced at each other, and sighed in unison.

My mother dislikes them both again!

But then again, it’s not like I disliked it the first day, so don’t take it too seriously...

All the iron pots, bowls and spoons were brought back, washed and boiled.

Jiang Zhuguo is still diligent and quick in his work.

Xia Mingyue became more and more satisfied with it, "You go home now, tell your mother, pack two clothes and bring some things with you, come early tomorrow morning, even if it officially starts Work. "

"The wages will be calculated as five hundred dollars per month, including food and accommodation. The monthly payment will be at the end of the month, and there will be two days off every month."

Five. Hundreds of dollars!

The Qingfeng Teahouse washes tea bowls, and they say they have to do it all day long, so they only pay 200 yuan. Her uncle at home can read and do accounts, and he only earns 500 yuan a month to work as an accountant.

The price here is five hundred dollars.

Oh my God!

Jiang Zhuguo was excited and grateful. He rubbed his hands and didn't know what to do. He simply knelt down to Xia Mingyue and said, "Thank you, Sister Xia, thank you, Sister Xia."

Xia Mingyue was startled by Jiang Zhuguo's move, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to help her up, "But let me say it first, I give you this salary so that you can work well for me. If you don't do well, I won't be able to do it." ”

A high salary can be given, but enough results must be obtained.

Xia Mingyue knows this well, and naturally the words came to the forefront.

"Don't worry, Sister Xia, I will do a good job and satisfy Sister Xia." Jiang Zhuguo replied hurriedly to express his position.

This is five hundred dollars!

No matter what, you have to work hard.

Xia Mingyue pursed her lips and smiled, "It's late, you go back early and come early tomorrow morning."

"Hey, okay!" Jiang Zhuguo agreed repeatedly.

But before leaving, he took out all the bowls and spoons that were boiling in the pot and wiped away the water. He also filled the water tank at Xia Mingyue's house with water, and even helped Xia Mingyue washed the leeks thoroughly.

Xia Mingyue is becoming more and more satisfied with Jiang Zhuguo.

Jiang Zhuguo walked all the way home from the county seat.

Because I was so happy, I almost jogged all the way, even jumping up and down.

Even when they got home, they didn’t even have time to pick up the backpack behind them, so they got into the adobe house that was about the same height as her. When they arrived in front of Mrs. Tian, ​​she said, “Mother!”

Meet Jiang Zhu Guo was so excited that a slight smile appeared on Tian's withered and yellow face. He reached out and touched Jiang Zhuguo's sweat-wet hair on his forehead, "What are you so happy about?"

"I Didn’t you tell your mother to go to the county to find a job? Now you have found a job!”

Found a job?

Tian was immediately delighted, "Is it the teahouse you mentioned? Can it really give you two hundred dollars a month?"

"No, it's the Sister Xia who buys our black vegetables I told you earlier. Home." Jiang Zhuguo smiled. He said, "Sister Xia has now opened a wonton stall, and the business is booming. She and Sister-in-law Lu are too busy, so they want to hire someone to do the work. Knowing that I am looking for work, they hired me."

"Sister Xia said as long as If I work hard, I can get five hundred dollars a month!"

"Five hundred dollars?" Tian was also very surprised, "That much?" "Yes, that's a lot of money. "Jiang Zhuguo was quite proud, "Mom, I can earn five hundred dollars a month. In the future, my mother won't have to take the decoction for two days and stop it for two days. I can ask the doctor to prescribe a cheaper prescription. Take more. Some time.”

"Even if you earn five hundred dollars, you can't spend it carelessly." Tian dissuaded her, "This is an old habit of mine. Even if I take medicine, it will be in vain. So don't spend that unjust money. You should save some and keep them for me." Your father uses it, this is serious business."

"But can't your father make a lot of money by copying books..." Jiang Zhuguo bit his lip and defended in a low voice.

“But if you always copy books, it will also delay your father’s study. And if you always copy books to sell, he will look a little shabby to the outside world, and you will lose face in front of your classmates.”

Tian explained, "Furthermore, your father is a scholar, and it is difficult to have food and clothing these days. It’s better to have free time, and you have to have wine and poems with your classmates from time to time. There is naturally a lot of money to spend.”

“You are still young, and you don’t understand these worldly things. In short, you are just a scholar. Be decent, otherwise you will be looked down upon by others.”

But she has also seen scholars who were covered in patches, eating steamed buns, and setting up stalls on the streets of the county town to write letters to others to earn money.

In his spare time, he kept reading books, and his life was undignified, but no one around him looked down upon him.

Do scholars really have to be decent?

Jiang Zhuguo didn’t understand.

Seeing her daughter's confused face, Tian became more serious and sincere, "Our hard work is that we have poor food and poor clothing, but your father's daily suffering is all in his heart, and outsiders can't see it. Yes, your father is studying for the sake of our whole family. If your father can go to high school and become an official in the future, we can also live a good life. "

"If you live in a big house, have good food and drink hot food, have a car when you go out, and have servants and servants to take care of you at home, you will be an official lady. My mother often said that only by enduring hardship can you become a superior person. Now How bitter it is now, how sweet the days to come will be."

"Zhuguo, Mom knows that you have been working hard these days, and now you have to work for others, but still what I said, This woman obeys her father at home and her husband when she gets married. Your father is your mother’s husband and your father. You have to think about your father no matter what. Only if your father succeeds in the future can we live a better life. "

But...

That is something in the future.

Now, with a father who comes home from time to time to get food, their life is not easy.

Jiang Zhuguo hesitated, and the words almost slipped from his lips, but in the end he did not say them out. He only took off the backpack on his body, "Mom, you must be hungry. I'm going to cook some vegetable leaf porridge."

Spring Day Wash spinach that is extremely raw and lush, and mix it with some stick noodles. It is a little sticky and can be regarded as porridge, but it does not stop you from being hungry. With a meal like Jiangzhuguo, you need to eat three bowls in one meal.

Jiang Zhuguo put in more stick noodles tonight.

This action was all seen by Tian.

This child...

I was so frustrated that I must have heard people in the village gossiping again.

Those people have nothing to do all day long. They are either talking about the parents of the Dong family or the shortcomings of the Xi family. There is no stopping. They must be afraid that her family, Jiang Yihe, will become successful. Her family is living a good life. , just talking about something in front of Zhuguo.

What a tongue-tied woman!

Jiang Yihe was right. She was going to be an official's wife in the future, and she couldn't always be with those ignorant village women.

I have to teach Zhu Guo a lesson in the future, so as not to look like a petty person if I follow Jiang Yi to live in the county town.

The next day, at dawn, Jiang Zhuguo arrived at Xia Mingyue's home.
