If several people work together, it will be very fast to brush the car.
Yan Yu talked nonsense while working.
The method of persuading the eldest brother was deleted and modified and used to persuade the eldest sister.
Yan Laoer smiled and ignored her.
His daughter was very lively and had a small mouth, so she was very rare.
Yan Xiangheng asked him: "Uncle, let them go back first, let's wash up by the river?"
The villagers tacitly agreed to set aside a section of the area where men would come and wash themselves after a busy day.
"Xiao Er, go home with your eldest sister first. Heng'er and I will be back in a while," Yan Lao Er said.
Yan Yu agreed, held hands with Sister Da Ya, and walked home in a leisurely manner.
As for what her father and eldest brother were going to do, there was no need to ask, she had seen everything the eldest brother brought.
The uncle and nephew walked downstream to the reed beach.
This place is far away from the place where villagers often collect water and fish nets, and it is covered by reeds, so it is perfect for bathing.
The river water had been exposed to the sun for most of the day, so it was not particularly cold. They kept moving, scrubbing and washing, and the temperature was just right.
Yan Laoer is now very aware of being an uncle.
"Heng'er, turn around and let me rub your back."
Yan Xiangheng's face turned slightly red and he turned around honestly.
He felt his uncle lather the cloth with soap and scrubbed his back vigorously.
Yan Laoer also has a habit of talking non-stop and likes to babble.
"The lockdown over Huju has been lifted, so people in our village can have a good rest and no longer have to go into the mountains every day.
You can play with Xiao Er and the others tomorrow, don't look at those kids running around all day long, they are all very strong and can eat and make things."
"Uncle, I know. If Xiao Er and the others train in the future, I will go with them.
But uncle, what should we do with those unprepared herbs? They are all given work points to the villagers."
Yan Xiangheng was a little worried.
"Then there's still Gu Feng. I'll go for a run when I get back to see if I can sell some medicine." Yan Laoer had already planned this.
"One more thing, we can keep some for ourselves. We can keep some medicines, and we have dug cellars in every house. When winter comes and the weather gets cold, we can use them if someone has a headache or a fever.
And the families in Da'an Village are all real relatives. People in our village must lend a hand to help. Food and medicine are not as good as this medicine. I can think of it, and they can also think of it. I will talk to them later.
, work points cannot be exchanged for silver, they can be exchanged for medicine.
The herbs we dig ourselves are as convenient as we can get them."
"Uncle, you are still thoughtful." Yan Xiangheng said with admiration.
"Haha! What's wrong with this? You, the village elders, wouldn't have thought of it. Those old men just didn't say anything. They weighed and understood everything before they spoke. They were also waiting for me or your father to come back. Alas! This is all going to happen with us.
Family comes first... Heng'er, your uncle is under a lot of pressure, and I'm afraid he won't do well."
Yan Xiangheng wanted to say uncle, you have done a good job, so Yan Laoer slapped the cloth on his shoulders.
"Come on, Heng'er, rub your uncle's back too, and try harder, I'm struggling."
Yan Laoer turned around naturally, leaving his back to his eldest nephew.
Yan Xiangheng:……
He swallowed the words in his throat.
He held the cloth towel with both hands and moved it up and down on his uncle's back.
Yan Laoer kept talking: "The whole village is looking at our family, not just counting on us, but... taking us as their backbone.
So Heng'er, you have to pay attention to the county exam at the beginning of next year and take it well, ah! Let's try to pass three exams in a row and come back as a scholar. By then, our family will have two talents in one subject, haha!
When your father comes back next fall and takes the examination, oh, that will be even worse, the cheeks of the people in our village will cramp up from laughing!"
Yan Laoer laughed to himself for a while, and then said: "How should I put it, our relationship with the people in the village is not family, but better than family."
Yan Xiangheng noticed some changes in his uncle's tone.
"The people in this village have little knowledge and are stupid and don't know what to say. But when something happens, they really come forward!
At home, your father said that he would take the whole village with him. At that time, I couldn't understand it. But along the way, we have experienced so much. Just ask, are these people in our village great? I think they are
Excellent!
They don't complain about hardship or tiredness, they just follow us wholeheartedly. No matter what we say, they will do well. When they need to work hard, they will work hard. When they encounter bad people, they will rush forward.
Let’s just talk about the time we were overtaken by someone on the deserted beach. How dangerous it was!
There are so many people, all riding tall horses, with those knives, and such fierce faces, fighting for our lives!
Looking back now, I'm still a little scared.
It’s all thanks to the hard work of people like us!
It’s also a credit to your father and my eldest brother for being able to keep me under control!”
"Dad is very handsome, uncle, you are not bad either." Yan Xiangheng said.
Yan Laoer shook his head: "It's far worse than your father!
My uncle has no ambitions. He just wants to keep our family safe and secure while you and your father go to school and become officials.
My uncle just farmed at home and did some small business.
It would be great if our family can save a little money so that we can eat and drink without worries.
The people in the village are harmonious, and they know everything about them, which makes people feel at ease when they live there.
Your father came back a while ago and asked me to go to school in the county. Isn't this a joke? Uncle knows his own ability. I am really not good at studying. Our family depends on your father and you.
Heng'er, your father asked me to go to school in the county. I understand that he doesn't like me being such a fool, but I am really different from you. I don't have a clear mind and can't learn clearly.
Don't worry, you think your father has other ideas.
He just thinks that you have done well in studying and there shouldn't be much problem in next year's exam.
However, his kindness was appreciated.
Uncle is self-aware. The quota for this county school is for you.
The future prosperity of our old Yan family depends entirely on you two!"
Yan Laoer went through such a long circle and finally spoke out what was in his heart.
County school? Let Heng'er enjoy it!
He won't go!
Yan Xiangheng: "Uncle, my father told me, and I think he is right. I can just read the books at home. I don't have to go to the county school. But uncle, it would be a pity if you don't pick up the books."
He told the truth: "Uncle... in Guanzhou, it is not difficult to become a scholar."
Even my eldest nephew knows, how bad is Guanzhou’s academic style?!
Yan Laoer was speechless.
I still have to convince you today.
Lao Yan had no brains to use, but he got inspiration from his daughter.
You can save the country through curves!
Just convince the eldest nephew!
"Heng'er, listen to your uncle. When your father comes back this time, I will tell him that you will go to this county school, and your uncle will make good money and make more money to support our family, Shu.
Live your life comfortably.”
"You two, just study with peace of mind. When you really make a difference in the future, I can follow suit, right?"
Yan Xiangheng saw that his uncle's attitude was really firm, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
He nodded vaguely.
Yan Laoer was so happy that he gave his eldest nephew a performance of "Roll, Roll, Roll!"
