It’s rare for Chen Erya to say so many words, “I asked Xiaoyun, and she said that as long as you pass the application, you can go to school no matter how old you are. I also saw the white-haired grandpa after school, and they said he was from the government school. Master Hu.”
The more Chen Dazi listened, the more excited he became. He looked at his sister gratefully, and then looked at Butcher Chen eagerly.
Butcher Chen looked hesitant.
Chen Dazi argued: “The night tour class only starts in the evening every day, so it will not delay the work during the day.”
Butcher Chen said: “You have to prepare for the day at night. You also go to school. It will be hard to leave your mother alone at home.”
Chen Dazi’s excited expression dimmed.
At this time, Aunt Chen said: “Let the eldest son go, I don’t have anything to do.”
Chen Erya then said: “I can make money for my family and let my brother go to school.”
Chen Dazi looked at his sister with emotion, and then at Butcher Chen.
Facing the gazes of the three people, Butcher Chen nodded.
In exchange, the eldest son smiled brightly and was overjoyed.
From this day on, life at Butcher Chen’s home was not disrupted by the change of pace, but became more relaxed.
Whether it was the second girl or the eldest son, there were always smiles on their faces. In the past, the relationship between the brother and sister could not be said to be bad, but they were not very close either. Nowadays, when I go home from school with my younger sister, my elder brother always takes care of my younger sister, and my younger sister also trusts her brother very much.
When they returned home, they would always tell their parents about the interesting things and surprises they encountered in the night tour class. Butcher Chen and his wife were also fascinated by what they heard. Aunt Chen touched her round belly with a smile on her face, even the worry in the corners of her eyes. The lines are gone.
At night, Mrs. Chen laughed without warning before going to bed. Butcher Chen, who was getting ready to go to bed, asked, “What are you laughing at?”
Aunt Chen sat up, looking so excited that she looked like she was going to talk all night long, and said to Butcher Chen: “Do you think our children are becoming more and more like the young ladies from wealthy families when they talk and behave?”
Butcher Chen was confused: “What nonsense are you thinking about?”
Aunt Chen glared at him, rubbed her belly and said, “We are all rough people. We have spent most of our lives raising pigs, killing pigs, and selling pigs, and we are all smelling of earth and oil. Life is not hard, and we are not much rich. Originally, the eldest son and the second son This is how things will go from now on…”
Butcher Chen was in a daze for a moment, and gradually understood the meaning of his wife’s words.
Aunt Chen said: “We are uneducated, but now the eldest son and Erya are different. I found out that the young men from wealthy families in the city are also studying in the night class. Our eldest son and Erya can learn the same knowledge as them.” Ah! This is something I never dared to think about before. Erya still gives me her daily wages, and I will save them for her dowry. It will definitely be enough after a few years.”
“Because Erya is capable, I have enough money to make clothes for San’er in advance. When San’er comes out, I will definitely go to Si Ye’s Mansion to pay my respects. No, I will go to Si Ye’s Mansion tomorrow to pray for San’er’s blessings. ”
Butcher Chen became more and more excited as his wife talked. At this moment, he came back to his senses and said in astonishment: “What are you asking for blessings? Si Ye Mansion is a place to punish evil and eliminate filth, and it is not a place for people to burn incense and worship Buddha.”
“So what? Yesterday, Aunt Shi, who lives next door to us, went to Si Ye Mansion with eggs to pray for blessings.” Aunt Chen said matter-of-factly: “Burning incense and praying to Buddha doesn’t work for Si Ye Mansion, so I’ll just go and pray outside the gate.”
Butcher Chen: “…”
