Became a poor little boy abandoned by his educated youth mother?
Chapter 20: Trying to get you into college
"I've decided that I'm going to study hard at home and learn all the characters during this holiday."
"Shi Tou, what's wrong with you?" An Qingyu asked, touching his forehead.
"Grandpa, grandma, and aunt, you don't know that my sister has learned all the words and can even understand the newspaper," An Honglei said proudly.
Then he said seriously, "I'm the older brother and I'm supposed to be a role model for my younger sister, but now I'm not as good as she is. I need to keep working hard."
"Shi Tou, are you serious? Does Yan really know everything?" An Youliang knew that his granddaughter had the habit of flipping through books. He originally thought that she was just casually looking at the pictures, but he didn't expect that she actually understood them.
"Really? I took the test today. My sister read very well, just like the teachers in school reading newspapers." An Honglei nodded affirmatively.
Zhang Guihua thought to herself, no wonder the little girl could talk so much, it turned out she learned it from a book.
An Qingyu knew that her niece was smart, but she didn't take it too seriously at first. She just taught her how to recognize words and gave her a dictionary.
Being stared at by four pairs of eyes at home, An Xueyan's big eyes blinked.
"Didn't I ask my aunt to teach me pinyin? I learned it by looking in the dictionary."
"Good, good, good!" An Youliang said three good words happily.
He advised earnestly, "I always wanted your fifth uncle to go to college, but he didn't pass and ended up working in a factory. I didn't expect Yan to have such a talent for studying. You should study hard in the future. Although you can't go to college now, it never hurts to study more."
"I know Grandpa."
"After dinner, I'll read the newspaper to grandpa." An Youliang said with a smile.
After the family finished their meal, An Xueyan read the contents of the newspaper to her grandfather in a clear voice, and An Youliang was very happy to listen.
An Qingyu also looked at the contents of the newspaper and confirmed that they were all correct. He sighed in his heart that their An family was about to produce a genius.
Finally, he touched An Xueyan's hair in a very gentle tone and said, "Take a look at your aunt's elementary school textbooks. If you don't understand something, ask your aunt and let her explain it to you."
"it is good!"
"Don't worry, Yanyan. Just ask me if you don't understand." An Qingyu happily accepted the task. It was such a proud thing to be able to teach a little genius.
And she felt that she could still handle the elementary school textbooks.
"Thank you, aunt." I will definitely ask for your advice and try my best to get you admitted to university.
"Brother, are you still going out to play this afternoon?"
An Honglei was a little tempted, but when he thought about his sister's learning progress, he shook his head firmly: "I'd better not go. I'll study at home."
"Brother, if you don't know how, I can teach you." An Xueyan said to her brother with a smile.
"I'll try to learn on my own first." Woohoo... I wonder how much psychological trauma I'll face from having a smart sister.
They studied in the old house in the afternoon, and An Xueyan asked her aunt to teach her using the first-grade textbook.
It's a good opportunity for her brother to learn from her too.
Seeing that the learning atmosphere was so good, An Youliang nodded with satisfaction and happily went out to chat with other old men.
Zhang Guihua has already gone to visit relatives. For her, although she is happy that her granddaughter can go to school, it is still not as important as earning more food or buying a few more pairs of insoles.
Intellectuals felt a little distant from her as a genuine rural woman, especially when many intellectuals were suffering now, and they felt that it was not a good thing.
Secretary Lin and his group left before noon, and An Qingguo politely and considerately escorted them out of the village.
Seeing Secretary Wang's approving look, I felt more at ease. I thought about how he usually worked hard. As long as the leaders above were dedicated to their work, they would be able to see his efforts.
His father taught them since they were young that they should do things well and not try to be cunning or sly, otherwise even if they get certain benefits, they won't be able to keep them.
Those who play tricks will sooner or later run into a tough opponent, and then they will be in big trouble.
This is An Youliang's personal experience. Among the people who went out to work with him when he just started his apprenticeship, there was one from the same family who did his work perfunctorily and the quality was poor. At the beginning, he even cheated several of An Youliang's original customers by selling them low prices.
But it didn't take long for people to discover that there was a problem. Some of the furniture was just for show, so the owner refused to do it. In those days, you had to have some influence to be able to hire someone to do the work.
He couldn't swallow this humiliation, so he asked someone to cripple his hands. In the end, because of his disability and lack of income, he starved to death during the famine.
When An Youliang and his companions went to his house and found the body, it had already rotted. They then gathered together with several fellow villagers to make a coffin and bury it.
This is the cycle of cause and effect. From that time on, An Youliang told himself to be cautious in what he said and did, and to be down-to-earth in what he did. No matter what he did, he had to do it seriously and responsibly.
After he had children, he told them about this incident. What the child did when they were young was wrong, so he was beaten with the broomstick.
In An Qingguo's memory, the An family made a lot of new brooms at that time. Several boys in their family were naughty and were beaten every few days.
Now that I think about it, I have to thank his father, otherwise he and his brothers wouldn’t be so honest now.
Now I still feel a little embarrassed when I see his father’s dark face.
But there is still a bottle of wine at home, so I will ask the second son to go and have a drink with the old man in the evening.
Thinking of this, I hummed a song and went to the second brother's house.
"Second brother, are you home?" he started shouting at the gate of the yard.
"I'm here, big brother. What's the matter?" An Qingshun came out and asked.
"No big deal, just us brothers going to have a drink with dad tonight and keep him company."
Although An Qingshun didn't know why his elder brother suddenly wanted to accompany the old man, he thought it was not a big deal, and there was also wine to drink, so he definitely agreed.
When An Qingguo returned home, he rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find his treasured wine.
"What are you doing? Where are you going to drink? Aren't you afraid of getting drunk and freezing to death on the side of the road?" She knew that her man liked to drink.
But the key is that this person likes to sleep when he drinks too much, and no one can wake him up. She is worried that this person will just sleep on the side of the road and never wake up.
"We'll go to my parents' house to eat tonight and have a few drinks with the old man. It's just next door, it won't be far away, nothing will happen." An Qingguo also knew what he looked like when he was drunk and explained quickly.
Only after hearing this did Zhao Shufen feel relieved.
She said graciously, "Then I'll bring over a plate of peanuts to go with the wine, and give Mom and Dad a pound of pork from today's distribution, and I'll also bring over some other dishes."
"Just take care of the arrangements. I trust you to do the job." An Qingguo was very satisfied with his wife's filial piety to the elders and care for her younger siblings.
When Wang Lai-kwan from An Laoer's family heard that they were going to the old house for dinner in the evening, she didn't feel like expressing anything.
"Where is the meat that was given to our family?" An Qingshun looked around the kitchen but didn't find any meat.
This shouldn’t be the case. They haven’t eaten the food they just shared yet, so how come there is nothing left?
Wang Lai, who had just hidden the meat, said with a dark face, "I put it away and save it for the New Year."
