Chapter 61: Marry Well
"Zhuguo is right, it's just a few days at night, and he didn't say that he wouldn't give it. If there is a fuss over this, it will appear that our family is short of the money, and it is full of money. Xiaojiazi behaves so shamelessly.”
How embarrassing.
Jiang Yihe spoke, and Tian nodded hurriedly, "Your father is right, I was confused for a moment, but in this case, you want to buy the money for the book..."
Her husband studies hard, but she can't even come up with money to buy books, which is really holding her husband back.
Tian's face was full of shame, "It's all my fault for being in such a bad shape and taking expensive medicine all day long."
"It doesn't matter." Jiang Yihe said, "At worst, I can just borrow a classmate's book to read it. And I heard from my classmates that Mr. Zhong in the town wants to donate some money and books to the college. I think it can solve the urgent need. "
Mr. Zhong, Tian and Jiang Zhuguo have all heard Jiang Yihe mention it before. , is a very wealthy person in the town. His family has a lot of land and there are two shops in the town alone.
The most important thing is that Mr. Zhong is very charitable and likes to help scholars the most. He is a completely good person.
“This Master Zhong is really a living Bodhisattva.” Mrs. Tian responded with a smile, “When your husband becomes successful and famous in the future, you will have to express your gratitude to this Master Zhong.”
"Yes." Jiang Yihe's mouth curved up with a satisfied smile, and his eyes narrowed.
It’s just that the smile in these eyes faded a lot when seeing Tian’s yellow and thin face.
Jiang Yihe looked at Jiang Zhuguo, "I haven't seen Bamboo Fruit for a long time. Bamboo Fruit has grown much taller than before, and his face has a little more flesh. You work in the county, everything is okay?"< br>
"It's good." Jiang Zhuguo nodded, "Sister Xia treats me very kindly. There is no shortage of food and drink, and the work is not heavy. Today, during the Dragon Boat Festival, Sister Xia specially asked me to bring some rice dumplings back. "
As he spoke, Jiang Zhuguo took out the rice dumplings from the bamboo tube.
There were six in total, and they were still exuding a unique fragrance.
Seeing such food, Jiang Yihe's eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile, "It seems that Madam Xia is indeed kind."
"If she was kind, it wouldn't be too late. Monthly money." Mr. Tian was very worried about this matter.
But seeing that Jiang Yihe and Jiang Zhuguo didn't say anything, they stopped talking and cooked the lunch meal together with Jiang Zhuguo.
The wheat has not been confiscated yet, and there is little leftover food at home. The lunch meal is a paste of vegetable leaves mixed with stick noodles, paired with bamboo tube rice dumplings brought back by Jiangzhuguo.
When the meal was served, Tian placed all the rice dumplings in front of Jiang Yihe.
Jiang Yihe paused, picked up two bamboo fruits and gave them to Tian and Jiang respectively, "You guys eat them too."
"The bamboo fruits are what Mrs. Okay, I'm fine with this one. I'm usually weak and have trouble digesting rice dumplings, and I don't like eating rice dumplings." Tian stopped Jiang Yihe and said, "You can just eat it, don't worry about us."
When he said this, Tian gulped.
It’s not that I don’t like eating, it’s just that I’m very greedy, but I don’t want to eat it.
Jiang Zhuguo saw this and took two rice dumplings, peeled them and put them into Tian's bowl. "Mom, no matter how much you don't like eating, today is also the Dragon Boat Festival, so you should eat two to celebrate the festival. Although glutinous rice is not easy to digest, but now It's noon, it's still early in the evening, and I have to do a lot of work in the afternoon, so I can definitely digest it."
Even though her daughter said this, Tian was still a little reluctant and just pushed her bowl to Jiang Yihe. In front of me, "You better eat it."
At this time, the rice dumplings were already covered with stick batter, and they no longer looked as beautiful as they were before. Moreover, Tian had taken two sips of the stick batter.
Jiang Yihe frowned, suppressed the disgust in his heart, and pushed the bowl back, "Zhuguo is right, you eat it quickly." "Yes, dad has been in the academy for a long time. The food on weekdays is not bad, and there is no shortage of this." Jiang Zhuguo added.
Seeing this, Mrs. Tian picked up the bowl again.
Jiang Yihe glanced at Jiang Zhuguo and said after a while, "The rice dumplings made by Lady Xia are really delicious. I have never eaten such delicious rice dumplings before. This shows that Lady Xia's craftsmanship is That's great. You follow Madam Xia all the time. I will probably be able to improve my cooking skills in the future. If I can learn some skills from Madam Xia and open my own food shop, it will probably be good.”
By then, I will probably be able to make some money. A lot of money.
"Dad, are you asking me to follow Madam Xia and steal her master?" Jiang Zhuguo put down the bowl in his hand.
Jiang Yihe was stunned, "You can't say it like that, it's just what you've heard and seen. How can it be as unpleasant as stealing from others?"
"Yes." Mrs. Tian agreed, "Aren't those apprentices learning crafts while working and then relying on their own crafts to make a living, so how can they become thieves?"
"Apprentices don't get paid, and they have to be filial. Master, Sister Xia pays me five hundred dollars a month for my work. If I still want to learn skills, wouldn’t that be stealing?”
Jiang Zhu? Guo stared at Jiang Yihe and said word by word, "Dad is a scholar, how can he not know this truth? If this matter breaks out, I am afraid that dad will be stabbed in the back."
The questioning words made Jiang Yihe's face turn red. After a long time, he said, "Dad accidentally said the wrong thing."
After saying that, Jiang Yihe's eyes showed a trace of anger.
Angry at Jiang Zhuguo's stupidity and stubbornness, and even more angry at her for being so ignorant of etiquette and disobeying her father as a daughter.
More than once, and every time, he was unable to get off the stage.
If that’s what she said, she must have been lying just now when she said she didn’t receive any monthly payment.
Since Mrs. Xia treats others well when eating and drinking, and even asks workers to bring rice dumplings home during the Dragon Boat Festival, she will definitely not refuse to pay her wages if the business is not good.
It is clear that Jiang Zhuguo holds the monthly money, but does not want to be his father.
The female college student has a lot of thoughts, and what she said is true.
If you continue to indulge in this idea, I am afraid that you will have to make the decision on your own marriage in the future, and after marriage, you will be an unfilial daughter who does not care about your mother's family.
But speaking of the marriage...
Jiang Yihe's eyes looked back and forth on Jiang Zhuguo's body again.
Jiang Zhuguo has inherited his father's handsome face. During this time, he has gained weight visibly, making his face more and more pretty, and his figure gradually becoming more prominent. With the grace and grace of a girl.
Jiang Yihe lowered his head and thought for a long time.
The meal ended without a word being spoken by the family of three. Jiang Zhuguo asked Tian to rest and washed all the dishes by himself.
Then I cleaned the yard, washed Tian's clothes, and even tidied up the vegetable plot. It wasn't until the sun turned west that I put down the work in my hands and picked up the work from Xia Mingyue. A small bamboo basket brought back from home.
Jiang Zhuguo went to the vegetable field and picked some fresh cucumbers and long beans, intending to take them away.
When Tian saw this, his distressed eyes almost started to bleed, "This bamboo fruit, the elbows are turning outwards more and more!"
