Chapter 17 Unusual knowledge
Feng Shi and Man Bao said: "This man can study as a bookkeeper, and he can also be a teacher. If he studies well, maybe he can go to an examiner, but what is the use of a woman studying? When she is old, she will marry, not to Going to the ground is just doing housework at home, what does it matter if you don't read?"
Man Bao was speechless, but she always felt that what the second sister-in-law said was wrong.
After thinking about it, she finally found a rebuttal opinion, "Mr. said, reading is sensible."
Feng Shi: "It makes sense, you can understand it when you talk about it. Don't worry, Auntie, I will tell Erya. Look at us, don't we all know how to read? Who doesn't understand reason? Girls all learn reason from their mothers. ."
Man Bao couldn't say anything to her, so he lowered his shoulders and said, "Is it because Erya can make money by reading, so you promise Erya to read?"
Feng Shi: "She can't be an accountant, she can't be a teacher, and she can't be an examiner. How can she make money by reading?"
"I don't care. Second sister-in-law, you promise me first. If she can make money by reading, you have to promise her to read and read with me."
"Okay, okay," Feng said perfunctorily, "I promise you, okay, I'm going to start a fire. There's a lot of smoke in the kitchen, so you can go out quickly."
Man Bao didn't care whether she was sincere or not, just thought she agreed, so Man Bao ran to find Er Ya.
The second one found the manuscript and found that the little aunt was missing, so he immediately left the manuscript and went to look for the little aunt. He was in charge of taking care of the little aunt, how could he have lost the little aunt?
Man Bao ran to the river to find Er Ya.
A group of people were gathering by the river to wash clothes. As soon as Man Bao came over, everyone greeted her, and a woman said loudly, "Oh, Man Bao has come to wash clothes. You Zhou family have so many girls, how can you still pay for it? Use the little aunt?"
Erya also saw Man Bao, and hurriedly stopped her from getting too close to the river, "Little aunt, why did you come here, the milk won't let you come to the river."
Man Bao said, "I'm here to find you."
"I still have to do laundry, auntie, go back first."
It was the same woman who said, "Man Bao, you also help your niece. You are not too young anymore. Your family is in trouble now, but you can no longer enjoy the same happiness as before."
Man Bao felt that what she said was reasonable, and nodded again and again: "My niece is right, I will help Erya."
Coincidentally, she also wanted to try washing clothes. She had never washed clothes before she grew up. Man Bao looked at the river, her eyes lit up, and she had long forgotten her purpose of coming here.
How dare Erya let Man Bao do the laundry, she couldn't help but stare at the woman, "Sister-in-law three, I have many children, who does the laundry and who doesn't? What's your business?"
"Hehe, Erya, this girl has become stubborn. She learned from your fourth uncle? Don't borrow money from my family if you are so stubborn."
Man Bao was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized, and hurriedly went to appease her, "Sanzhu daughter-in-law, is your family short of money to spend? Don't worry, when my family earns money, I will return it to your family first."
Thinking that she would go to the county town to make money tomorrow, she patted her chest with confidence and said, "Tomorrow I will go to the county town to make money, and I will return it to your family when I come back."
A child of a few years old, still milky and milky, but learns to speak with adults, the first sentence makes people laugh, and when it comes to the second sentence, everyone can't laugh, and some people can't help but ask Erya, "Erya, your family Don't you really want to sell your sister-in-law?"
Erya said sharply: "What nonsense are you talking about, how can our family sell my aunt?"
Man Bao also said solemnly: "Our family does not sell children."
"How do you make money at this time and a half?" Sanzhu's daughter-in-law couldn't help but say, "This farming is over, there is no work in the fields, and the work in the county can't be your family's turn, right?"
Man Bao proudly said: "We plan to sell flowers, you wait, we will definitely be able to make money."
Sanzhu's daughter-in-law asked, "What flower?"
Man Bao opened his mouth and finally said, "All kinds of flowers."
Erya grabbed Man Bao and said, "Little aunt, go home quickly. I'll take you to play after I wash my clothes?"
Man Bao shook his head and looked at the clear water with bright eyes, "No, Erya, I'm an adult, I'll help you do the laundry."
"How about that?"
"Why not?" Man Bao said solemnly, "I am your aunt, you have to listen to me."
When everyone saw it, they helped Erya stop Manbao. Who didn't know that she was the treasure of the Zhou family? Moreover, my health has been bad since I was a child. If I really touched cold water, it would be good or bad, and the Zhou family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would not have to tear them apart.
Sanzhu's daughter-in-law didn't take it seriously. Who didn't come here when she was a child? When she was so old, she would even burn her meals and wash her clothes. What's so strange?
She rolled her eyes, and let Man Bao squat next to her, and gave her her own clothes, "Come on Man Bao, I'll teach you how to wash it."
Man Bao is not stupid, her own clothes can still be divided from other people's clothes, so she is very happy to ask Sanzhu's daughter-in-law, "niece-in-law, do I have wages for you to wash your clothes? You don't have to give it to me, Just pay off the debt directly.”
When Sanzhu's wife heard this, she immediately put the clothes back, and said sharply, "I've seen it, you can really make money, I've never heard of paying someone to wash clothes."
"If you are my aunt and my elder, of course I don't want it, that's my honor to you, but aren't you my nephew's daughter-in-law? Then of course my elder will have to ask for money to work for you," Man Bao said since he was a child. She understands the truth of following her father. She still wanted to wash the clothes for the three-pillar daughter-in-law, and said: "Three-pillar daughter-in-law, don't worry, I don't want you more, I just need a penny, whatever you want."
The person who was not used to seeing Sanzhu's daughter-in-law also laughed and said, "Yes, yes, Sanzhu's daughter-in-law, Man Bao is your aunt. If you ask your aunt to wash your clothes, you have to give some filial piety money."
Some older people also said: "Although Man Bao is young, she is of high rank, Sanzhu daughter-in-law, don't bully the elders."
Sanzhu's daughter-in-law was so angry that she simply put her clothes in the water, twisted it and left.
Man Bao was still waving from behind, "niece-in-law, if you don't want to do laundry next time, let me know and I'll do it for you. It's really cheap."
Erya couldn't help but shouted after her, "Third sister-in-law, I can also wash it for you, it's cheaper!"
"Okay, okay, don't make fun of her, Erya, your family still owes the village head money." Someone advised.
Erya felt a little lost when she thought of this.
Man Bao didn't feel pressured. In her opinion, going to the county town tomorrow will definitely make a lot of money, and naturally he can pay off his debts. Moreover, "The village chief is different from his daughter-in-law. Still have to learn.”
When everyone heard Man Bao's words, they couldn't help but laugh, "This child speaks like an adult, do you know what atmosphere is?"
Man Bao said with a puffed face: "I'm not stupid. My nephew and daughter-in-law don't like me, but it doesn't matter. I'm an elder and I don't know her in the same way."
Children are the most sensitive. She knows who likes her and who doesn't.
But it doesn't matter, who made Sanzhu her nephew, and Sanzhu's daughter-in-law her niece's daughter-in-law, as an elder, she would not have the same knowledge as them.
