Then he pulled off two chicken wings with the breast meat and gave them to his father and mother. His father shook his head and gave the wings to the third child. His mother hesitated and put the wings in the bowl of the eldest daughter-in-law.
The daughter-in-law spread her wings again and tried to put it into Wang Da's bowl, but Wang Da blocked her back.
The whole chicken was quickly torn into pieces by Wang Da and distributed to everyone. He knew that if he didn't force the distribution, the chicken would be served as it was brought up, and two chicken drumsticks would be given to the third and Yao.
Sister. Even so, his father and mother refused to eat a bite of the chicken and gave it all to them.
The family finished breakfast in silence. His father got up and went to the back room and took out three luggage rolls. He handed two luggage rolls to Wang Da and the other to Wang Er. Then he twisted the left corner of his clothes with his hand. Wang Da looked at
After arriving, he subconsciously twisted the left corner of his clothes and felt that it was hard in his hand. There was the money his father had sewn into him to save his life, so he nodded quietly to show that he understood.
At this time, his mother divided the buns into six and wrapped them, and took out three large gourds filled with water to tie them around their waists. Dad took three more wooden sticks and gave them to Wang Da. They are here for a long journey.
The preparation work is completed.
At this time, everyone in the family was silent, and neither men nor women had any desire to speak. Finally, Huang Da said dullly: "Let's go!"
His father also nodded and said, "Let's go."
His mother touched her old son's face and said, "Listen to your elder brother outside."
Different from the silence of his family, the word "eager to try" was written all over the little face of the third child. However, he did not break the silence, he just nodded vigorously! The last three people walked silently under the gaze of their family.
Outside the village.
No one knows what happened to them when they went out. Many of them never came back when they went out to find food. In the end, the family just mourned for a while, after all, the dead are not as important as the living!
Not long after leaving the village, Wang Da adjusted his formation. He took the lead, Wang Er dragged behind, and Wang San was sandwiched in the middle. He also gave each of the three sticks in his hand, and then continued to move forward silently.
.
Wang Da is already a veteran of looking for food outside during the lean years. He has been walking outside for nearly ten years. In the beginning, his father took him, and now he takes his younger brother. Maybe one day
When their younger brothers get married, they will also take their children down this road.
Wang Dashu, who was familiar with the road, found the official road and walked eastward along the official road. He had absolutely no intention of taking a side road. After all, there were more people on the official road and it was safer.
Whenever Wang Da met a caravan along the way, he would try his best to promote himself and his two brothers, asking the caravan to take them for a while. When he encountered a larger town, he would take his brother to do part-time work or simply beg for food.
.But their goal is firmly and unswervingly eastward.
After walking for more than 20 days, Wang Da felt that he was lucky! They met a large caravan. A big guy in this caravan was sick and had to stay in an inn in the town to recover.
A waiter was accompanying him. So Wang Da made an agreement with the shopkeeper that the three of him would take the place of the two waiters. It would cost no money and he would just take care of the food!
The moment the shopkeeper nodded, Wang Da breathed a complete sigh of relief! He knew that he would be able to reach Tianjin smoothly this time, because this caravan was rushing to Tianjin. He even began to imagine that he was taking two long
The scene of the stronger brother returning home carrying a large bunch of copper coins.
In fact, Wang Da didn’t know at all that it was not his efforts that won the shopkeeper’s trust. The reason that impressed the shopkeeper was because of his younger brother Wang San!
The old shopkeeper who fell ill was the apprentice of the old shopkeeper. After this business trip, the old shopkeeper would step down and hand over the power of the caravan to this old shopkeeper. But the old shopkeeper's eyes were dizzy and he was completely unable to keep accounts.
But it happened that the only two big men in the caravan who could keep accounts were sick, so after he found out that Wang San could read and write, he came up with the idea of taking them in.
Moreover, the smart old shopkeeper did not reveal that it was because of Wang San that he took in the three brothers. Instead, he acted like I will teach you things and guided Wang San in accounting every day. On the contrary, it made Brother Wang burst into tears of gratitude and always felt that
My brothers worked even harder under the care of the old shopkeeper.
Speaking of Wang San is also an anomaly of the Wang family! Several generations of the Wang family have been farmers, and the total number of characters they know across the generations is less than ten, and three of them are repeated! But when it comes to Wang San, it actually shows up.
A sign of knowing how to read!
When Wang San was eight years old, Wang Da took him to the town to sell vegetables. When he was setting up the stall, he told Wang San to play by himself and not run around. But when he finished selling the vegetables, he found that Wang San was missing! When he was anxious,
While San Huo was looking around, an old gentleman from a private school led Wang San to find him.
It turned out that Wang San ran outside a private school when he was playing by himself, and then he was attracted by the sound of reading. So when his teacher taught the students how to read, he followed it with his fingers on the dirt outside the window, and ended up learning seven.
words.
During the recess, other students discovered Wang San who was studying secretly and reported to the old school teacher. The old teacher took a test on him on a whim, and found that Wang Sanjuan had memorized eight of the ten words he taught this morning!
This shocked Mr. Wang! So after repeatedly questioning Wang San’s situation, he came to Wang Da and asked Wang Da to send Wang San to a private school to study, so as not to waste a young scholar. But given the Wang family’s family background, it was impossible.
Support a scholar.
Supporting a scholar not only requires him to be completely out of work, but also requires constant provision of consumables such as pens and inks. Therefore, although the Wang family really hoped to have a scholar in their family, they still had to decline this request.
But this old gentleman didn't know what was going on. Maybe he had never met a good talent in his life, or maybe there were other reasons. Not only did he agree to teach Wang San how to read for free, but he also promised to provide him with pen and ink for five years.
This request made the Wang family overjoyed, and they naturally agreed immediately. They gritted their teeth and tried their best to do some repairs. So Wang San officially became a student of this old school teacher. And the old school teacher also gave him a name called Wang Zhengguo!
It can be seen from this name that the old school teacher was full of hope for him! And Wang Zhengguo lived up to expectations and showed superhuman learning ability!
But when the fifth year was about to end, an accident happened! The old school teacher died of illness! In desperation, Wang Zhengguo had no choice but to return home to farm again. This year, he had to follow his eldest brother and second brother to escape.
