I feel so good after dressing up as a peasant girl
Chapter 34 A single tree cannot make a forest
Mrs. Wu had cried, begged, and knelt with her children, but her mother-in-law always looked like she would never change her mind.
She knew that her mother-in-law was determined not to drag her down.
But now the situation is different from before. If her two sons can really earn money to supplement the family income, then her mother-in-law will no longer have to worry about the livelihood of the family.
Then, will she be able to give up the idea of committing suicide?
Mrs. Wu looked at Bai Chong, and seeing that Bai Chong did not object, she cried and said to Bai Jingzhou: "Jingzhou, thank you, thank you! Your great kindness, I am thick-skinned and accept it."
Grandma Bai was shocked. She didn't expect her daughter-in-law to agree. She shouted sternly, "Jingshan's mother!"
Wu wiped her tears and said, "Mom, even if you scold me, I will not change my mind. I want you to live, and the children also want you to live."
She turned to look at Bai Jingzhou, "Jingzhou, I won't say anything if you are obedient, but I will definitely let Jingshan and Jinglin work hard for your family in the future. When they grow up, I will let them repay your family."
Bai Jingzhou waved his hand, "No need to repay, they are all my cousins, and I hope they live well."
After a pause, he continued, "When Jingshan and Jinglin grow up a little bit and can do more, I will consider giving them a raise."
Mrs. Wu was so scared that she waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, this is already a lot. If it's more, even if I send them to your house as long-term workers, I'm afraid I can't repay your family for this favor."
Bai Jingzhou smiled but said nothing. There was still a long time to come, and it was meaningless to argue about these things now. It would be better to just take it one step at a time.
Grandma Bai Si wanted to say something else, but the two women who were in charge of watching her just shook their heads and waved their hands.
"Aunt Si, please don't say anything."
"You should listen to Jingzhou and the others on this matter."
The old lady was very popular in the village, and it was not easy for Bai Jingzhou to help her family. The two women who were in charge of looking after her did not want her to ruin the matter herself and end her own livelihood.
Bai Jingzhou also said, "Yes, Fourth Grandma, please listen to us on this matter. If I don't have the ability, I will definitely not take on this matter. Now that I have taken it on, I will definitely be able to bear the expenses."
Grandma Bai Si burst into tears and held Bai Jingzhou's hand while crying.
Bai Jingzhou and Bai Chong persuaded the old lady for a while, and seeing that she seemed to have come to her senses, they said goodbye and went home.
Mrs. Wu and the two women who were in charge of watching her did not dare to relax. They and Mrs. Wu's three children took turns to watch over Fourth Grandma Bai to prevent her from hanging herself on the beam again when no one was paying attention.
One of the women finally waited until someone came to take over looking after Grandma Bai Si. She immediately ran to Bai Lizheng's house and told Bai Lizheng and his wife what had happened.
Bai Lizheng couldn't believe it at first, but after his wife asked him repeatedly and got affirmative answers every time, Bai Lizheng finally smiled.
He was very pleased and personally went to the homes of several elders of the clan to tell them about this matter.
After hearing about this, several elders of the Bai family all praised Bai Jingzhou's family for their kindness and generosity.
However, Bai Jingzhou's aunt, who heard about this from another woman who was in charge of looking after Bai Si's grandmother, was so angry at the outrageous behavior of Bai Jingzhou's family that she almost suffocated and fainted.
She, Wu, and most of the people in the village believed that Bai Jingzhou was just looking for an excuse to help Wu's family.
In her opinion, that family and their branch were almost five generations apart, and Bai Jingzhou was still so foolish as to send them food every month. He must be seriously ill in the head.
Bai Jingzhou didn't know that his aunt was secretly scolding him at home again. He had already planned last night to go to the town to buy fifty half-grown ducklings for the eight-year-old Bai Jinglin, and let him be responsible for releasing the ducks, feeding the ducks, and collecting duck eggs every day.
Any five or six-year-old child in the village can do this job, and it is certainly not a burden for Bai Jinglin, who is already eight years old.
From then on, Bai Jinglin only needed to go to Bai Jingzhou's house regularly to feed the ducks when the weather was good, and drive them to the foot of the mountain next to the woods on a regular basis to let them move around and forage for food on their own.
If the duck laid eggs, he would pick up the eggs and put them in a basket specially used to hold duck eggs in Bai Jingzhou's family. Once there were enough of them, Bai Jingzhou's family could sell the eggs for money.
As for Bai Jingshan, who is already ten years old, Bai Jingzhou plans to take him with him to collect herbs, dry them and prepare them in the future. When he has mastered it thoroughly, Bai Jingzhou will have time to do other things.
In addition, he also planned to let his father do more work and teach his younger brother while teaching him to read and count.
"I also plan to ask you to help teach them martial arts." Bai Jingzhou whispered to Gu Wenxuan, "If you are willing, wait until their father's ashes are buried, and I will find a time to let you see their roots."
Gu Wenxuan nodded and agreed, "Okay, let's train a few more people so that we can have more people to help us when we encounter problems in the future."
A single tree cannot make a forest. She and Bai Jingzhou share the same idea. If there are people with good character and good roots, Gu Wenxuan doesn't mind spending more time on them.
Five days later, Gu Wenxuan met the brothers Bai Jingshan and Bai Jinglin in the wasteland next to her home.
The clothes they wore were even more worn out than her and her brothers'. In terms of height and weight, Bai Jingshan was obviously inferior to his two younger brothers, Gu Wenxuan, who were of the same age.
Obviously, their family is poorer than Gu Wenxuan's.
Bai Jingshan and Bai Jinglin, who had been informed of the purpose of Bai Jingzhou's visit in advance, were very nervous. Bai Jingshan's expression was relatively normal, but his body was somewhat stiff. Bai Jinglin unconsciously kept stealing glances at Gu Wenxuan's face, trying to see at the first glance whether she was satisfied with him and his brother.
Faced with these two little ones, Gu Wenxuan really couldn't bear to keep them in suspense with her slow pace.
She quickly observed whether the two had a well-proportioned body and bright eyes, and then asked them to follow her to do a few movements to judge their flexibility, coordination and imitation ability.
"Not bad." Gu Wenxuan was very satisfied with the performance of the two children, so she gave them a high evaluation. She asked Bai Jingshan and Bai Jinglin, "Do you want to practice martial arts? Are you afraid of hardship?"
The two children nodded vigorously at first, and then shook their heads vigorously. Bai Jinglin said to Gu Wenxuan in his childish voice: "You want to practice! Don't be afraid!"
Wow, this darling little girl is almost as cute as her fourth and fifth brothers.
Gu Wenxuan: My hands are itching and I want to rub them (rua).
