Chapter 147 Revitalized
Daan’s eyes suddenly lit up when he heard Yang Ruoqing’s plans for the future.
"Sister, it costs a lot of money to build a new house. Can we save that much money?" Daan asked again.
Yang Ruoqing smiled, while stirring the sour water in the bowl, she took the time to glance at him.
“What? I don’t have confidence in your sister, or what?”
"No, it's just..."
"Silly brother, don't worry about saving money. With your sister here, I will not only build a new house and celebrate the New Year, but I will also send you to elementary school. !”
“A lesson?”
Daan’s voice couldn’t help but become excited.
"Yes, you are already eight years old, and you will be nine in the spring. It is time to learn."
As Yang Ruoqing spoke, she poured the acidic water she had prepared into the pot.
In this era, everything is inferior, but reading is the only one who is superior.
No matter how talented she is, she will be as rich as anyone.
However, businessmen had a low social status in this era.
It would be better for someone with a strong background and close ties with big forces.
People like her family, who have risen from the bottom of the countryside, make more money, and the more people will envy and envy them, and trouble will follow one after another!
Every dynasty prospers but the people suffer.
Perish and the people suffer.
If you want to make yourself and your family live a more secure and secure life, you have to climb up and not be at the bottom of society!
So, she will not let her two younger brothers, like their ancestors, have to deal with the dirt in front of and behind the village all their lives, relying on the sky for food and clothing!
She wanted to give them out, reverse their fate, and plant two big trees for shade at home!
"Sister, I don't want to be educated. I want to stay at home and help you and my mother with farm work and make tofu for you!"
After the brief excitement passed, Daan frowned and said .
When Yang Ruoqing heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Silly brother, look at your future! You are a man, living around a third of an acre of land and cooking pots, what future do you have? Studying is the best way out for a family like ours!"< br>
"But, sister, didn't you say that Mu Zichuan was a 'useless scholar'? Why did you send me to Mengxue?" Da'an asked, tilting his head.
Yang Ruoqing was speechless.
Is she lucky or unlucky to meet such a smart and wise brother?
She suddenly felt like hitting herself in the foot with a brick!
Fortunately, she is thick-skinned enough, and even if she overthrows herself, she can still blush.
"Tch!" Yang Ruoqing curled her lips, "You are different from Mu Zichuan. He has a sour smell all over his body, just like this brine, sour."
"You It's different. You are the hope of our family. If you study hard, you will honor your ancestors, revitalize your homeland, serve your motherland, and save your country. The burden of saving the world falls on your shoulders, young man! Work harder, my sister takes good care of you!”
Da’an: “…”
“Qing’er, Doufu. How's it going?"
Ms. Sun returned to the kitchen and came over to check what was going on in the pot.
Yang Ruoqing raised her head with a smile: "Mom, it's almost done, you can scoop it out of the pot!"
"Okay!"
Sun turned around and walked towards the kitchen wall over there. The two door panels had already been removed. Come down and stand there.
As usual, a tofu mold was placed above with wood, and two old patched sheets were laid out inside.
Yang Ruoqing brought the wooden bucket, and together with Mrs. Sun, scooped the tofu brains in the pot into the wooden bucket, and then evenly scooped them into the tofu mold...
"Da'an, do you want to drink tofu brain?"
Yang Ruoqing asked while scooping up.
Daan shook his head without hesitation: "I drank it last time, but I won't drink it this time!" These tofu puffs are all prepared by my sister who weighs the beans and tofu and delivers them to restaurants in the town. .
He can't drink it. If he drinks it, he won't be able to make enough tofu. That's not good!
Yang Ruoqing knew what Daan was thinking and said, "It's okay. A few bowls of it will be enough to make fifty kilograms of tofu. Go get a few bowls and we'll all have a bowl later!"
< br>This family is very poor.
However, no matter how difficult the conditions are, all conditions must be created to allow the family to supplement their nutrition.
You can’t eat meat every now and then, so you can’t skip your protein intake!
Their siblings are all growing and developing, and the seedlings cannot wither.
Yang Huazhong was in his prime when he suffered a leg injury and had to take supplements.
Sun was only in her thirties, but she looked haggard, skinny, and lacked nutrition.
Drinking a bowl of tofu nao every now and then is good for your family’s health!
......
After dinner, Yang Ruoqing looked at the tofu soaked in water in the four buckets in the corner, smiling with crooked eyes.
Fifty pounds of tofu, one hundred yuan, all in these four buckets.
At night, she went to borrow a wheelbarrow from Uncle Danniu's house. As soon as tomorrow dawn dawned, she and Luo Fengtang took the tofu to Juweixuan in the town and handed it to Chef Zhou personally!
Because Yang Ruoqing was going to town tomorrow morning, after the tofu was ready, Mrs. Sun urged Yang Ruoqing to go back to the house to rest.
Yang Ruoqing brought a basin of hot water and brought it to Yang Huazhong's bedside.
“Mom, I’m not sleepy right now, it’s not too late to rub my legs for my dad before going to sleep!”
As she spoke, she sat beside Yang Huazhong's bed and lifted the quilt from the foot of the bed.
In these days, no matter how busy or tired she is during the day, before going to bed every night, she will take out a stick of incense to massage Yang Huazhong's legs to soothe the nerves in his legs.
Yang Huazhong leaned there, the man's face was filled with relief. He was also used to being treated like this by his daughter.
While massaging Yang Huazhong's legs, Yang Ruoqing asked him how he felt.
Yang Huazhong thought seriously and replied: "During these days, when I sleep until midnight, there is some numbness and itching in the gaps between my bones, as if ants are scratching me!"
Yang Ruoqing listened very carefully and remembered every word in her heart.
"Dad, numbness is a sign of improvement. If you don't feel anything and feel like a piece of wood, then you're really worried!"
"Really?" The man's cheeks, because Twitching slightly with excitement.
Sun and Lao Suntou on the side could not hide the joy on their faces.
"Qing'er, it seems that your method is really effective!" Sun said.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Mom, you twist a hot water handkerchief, and I'll apply it to my father again!"
"Okay!"
The hot water handkerchief was quickly handed over. , Yang Ruoqing took it and covered it under Yang Huazhong's knees.
After this period of massage, she found that the previously atrophied muscles around her father's kneecaps were slowly rejuvenating.
When she delivers a batch of tofu to town tomorrow, there will be three days in between.
I just asked Tang Yazi to go into the mountains together to collect herbs.
If everything goes well and the required medicinal materials can be collected in one trip, then Dad won’t need to lie in bed during the Chinese New Year this year!
Of course, these are Yang Ruoqing's plans in her heart. She will only do it step by step and will not say too much too early.
After finishing waiting for Yang Huazhong, Sun and Yang Ruoqing returned to the house to rest.
Lying on the bed, Yang Ruoqing asked Sun: "Mother, did Ga Gong say that he wanted to go back to the mountain?"
Sun said: "That was my original plan. During dinner, I told him that I would go with Chang Geng and Gui Hua to catch the piglets at Gui Hua's parents' house. If you want to deliver tofu to the town, your grandpa will do it. If you postpone your return to the mountain for another day, your father will not be able to do anything with you.”
