Chapter 148： Another year

The next day, the first day of the Lunar New Year, Jiang Ning cooked food for the children early in the morning and took them to his old house to pay New Year greetings.

When Old Man Yang saw Yang Santie and Yang Sizhuang, his eyes lit up. He quickly pulled them over and asked, "Tell me what you learned in the school. Can you write my name?"

Yang Santie and Yang Sizhuang were dumbfounded when asked, but he still replied truthfully: "Sir taught me a lot. We have already studied the Thousand-Character Classic, One Hundred Family Surnames, and the Three-Character Classic. It is no problem to write your name." "

Old man Yang didn’t understand. He only thought that these two grandsons were very powerful and was extremely excited. “Have you ever praised me, sir?”

Yang Santie nodded proudly, "My husband also said that we would go to Class A during the New Year. I will definitely work hard and try to continue studying."

Now he can earn more than a thousand Wen from Jiang Ning every month. The money comes in quickly and easily. Even if he has to give some to Yang Sizhuang, he can still keep several hundred Wen. Looking at the entire school, there are only a few rich families. If you can compare with him, other classmates are not as rich as him, so only a fool would give up such a good opportunity to make money.

Old Yang didn't even know what Yang Santie was thinking about Xiao Jiujiu. He thought his grandson was motivated and sensible. He laughed so hard that his old teeth almost fell out, "Okay, okay, our old Yang family really has smoke coming out of their ancestral graves. Qian Wen of the Qian family It’s nothing, I’m definitely not as good as you. You study hard. If you don’t have enough money, tell me that as long as I’m still alive, I will continue to study for you.”

Mr. Zhou was hesitant to speak at the side. It took a while before she plucked up the courage and asked with a blushing face: "Three Irons and Four Villages, is Xiaoya going to study with you?"

"No!" Yang Sizhuang looked at Mr. Zhou in confusion, "We never came back after we went to the school. My mother took Xiaoya to the school to see us once."

“What’s wrong?” Old Man Yang looked at Mr. Zhou strangely.

Zhou's face was so red that it was almost bleeding, "It's nothing, I just want to ask."

Old man Yang looked at Jiang Ning, "Old man, Xiaoya is also studying?"

Jiang Ning nodded very calmly, "Not only is Xiaoya studying, Datou Yezi Erdan and I are also studying together. I had previously thought about sending the Three Irons and Four Villages to school, so I hired a little teacher to teach them in advance for a while. Xiaoya I learned it from my primary school teacher.”

Old man Yang was shocked, "So you are also literate?"

Yang Datou chuckled at the side and said: "Grandpa, you shouldn't ask my grandma whether she can read or not, but you should ask her how many words she knows. My grandma can't write well, but she can recognize any word, better than me." "Qiang, Xiaoya is even better. Not only can she read, but she can also write well. My husband praised her for being so good, saying it's a pity that she comes from a girl's family, otherwise she would be better than the Three Irons and Four Villages!"

“Brother, I am also very good. My husband even praised me!” Yang Sizhuang retorted dissatisfiedly.

Yang Santie nodded in agreement.

Yang Erdan shook his head, "If you ask me, Xiaoya is still the best. She works much harder than you two! During the Chinese New Year, I have to go to school to learn female beauty. Looking at our village, I have never seen a girl who works harder than Xiaoya."

"Studying female celebrities? Where can I go to school?" Only now did Yang realize that he knew nothing about Dafang and was like an outsider.

Li Shi is the same, she only knows a little bit, and just discovering this point today is like shit, not worth mentioning.

The couple in Sanfang were even more confused. They all looked at Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning curled up his lips, lowered his eyes and said, "Xiaoya likes female embroidery, and happened to find out about an embroiderer who came back from the capital. She is very skilled in craftsmanship, but she refuses to accept apprentices easily. If she does accept an apprentice, she will teach her as if she were her own daughter. I I have already made an agreement with the other party that as long as she takes in Xiaoya, Xiaoya will provide for her until the end of her life. During the Chinese New Year, she will send Xiaoya over to have her take exams for school. I didn’t even mention it before I even mentioned it. It’s done, Xiaoya. Ya will stay there from now on, with Datou Yezi, and Santie Sizhuang is studying in Mapo. It is too far to come back to our place, but it is very close to Datou, so I just went to Datou there a year ago. A courtyard was built.

It would be nice for the children to have a stable place to live there, and I thought it would be convenient to visit them. "

"His! My dear, you even bought a yard? How much did it cost?" Li was stunned, and her subconscious reaction was money.

Jiang Ning pursed his lips and smiled, "Not much, Auntie, don't forget, except for me, everyone in our family, Dutou Erdan, is making money. The yard was bought for Datou and Ye Zi in the future. I really haven't made any money myself. How many."

Yang Datou and others knew what was going on, but no one spoke.

Old man Yang looked at his eldest grandson with emotion, his eyes full of relief and sadness, "If your father was still here, how gratifying it would be to see you so successful!"

Yang Datou was a little enlightened. Counting the days, Yang Hu had been dead for two years, and he had almost forgotten what his father looked like.

Jiang Ning twitched his lips and said, "Dad, everyone has to look forward, but we can't always look back. Our family's life is no longer what it used to be. Why don't you tell us what your plans are for this year."

Speaking of this matter, Old Man Yang immediately forgot about the love between his children and leaned forward and said: "I was just going to tell you this! Although the Wei River burst its embankments last year and many places in Ping'an County were affected by disasters, because of the timely replanting of taro , there is no need to go hungry, and everyone is not as desperate as before when there was a flood. Many people plan to knock down the damaged old houses and build new ones.

The houses we built are famous in Gaojiazhuang and the county, and there are more people booking reservations in Dashan Town. I have calculated that I don’t have to worry about running out of work this year. I am afraid that I will be busy from the beginning to the end of the year like last year. Erdan is sure Keep watching with me, where is the third child? "

Yang Laosan nodded without thinking, "I'll be with you too."

Old man Yang pondered: "In this case, let's lead three teams this year! We can take over the work of three families at a time, earn more, and bring more people from the village out to make money."

Yang Erdan nodded repeatedly, "Grandpa, don't worry. I have made an agreement with Brother Axiao. He will go with me, as well as Uncle Yang Jun and several other elders. You don't have to worry."

Old man Yang went through the people chosen by Yang Erdan and had to admit that his arrangement was quite reasonable.

“Where’s the third child? Who are you going to call?”

Yang Laosan scratched his head in embarrassment, "I can name a few of my peers in our group, and there are two uncles. Although they are a bit old, they can still work. In addition, I also want to ask two Brother, do you want to come together?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Jiang Ning quietly.

Jiang Ning was indifferent, "What do you want me to do? You can do whatever job you think is suitable for you. I still say the same thing, one thing is the same. I won't offend anyone if they don't offend me. Although our eldest room is not the same as the second room. We’ve broken off the relationship, but this is a matter between our two families, and you haven’t broken off the relationship with them, so don’t worry about us.”

When Old Man Yang saw that Jiang Ning understood justice so well, he felt a burst of emotion in his heart. He said to Yang Laosan: "Your sister-in-law is an open-minded person. Just follow what your sister-in-law said. What should I do? If you really want to take the second child, you still have to ask Ask other people for their opinions. After all, if the second leg can’t do the work, everyone will definitely have opinions.”
