In the book, the female supporting role dreams of being an idle fish

"Just like you show, you three brothers are one family, my second aunt and I are one family, and my aunt will be another family when she gets married. We are three families."

"You don't trust your aunt and me, the only two elders in the family. Actually, there's no need to tell you this, but I can't let you go astray at such a young age."

"I have to go back to the village on Sunday to visit my grandparents, my parents. How should I tell them? Should I say that you grew crooked as soon as they left? Or should I say that I didn't take good care of you and it's all my fault?"

"My original plan was to have you take the second child to school during the holiday. After the holiday starts in two days, I will send the second child to school for the next semester."

"But look at you, you don't even want to take your own brother with you."

"Today is Monday, and you can't stand it six days a week. How long have I taken you and the second child to school? How long has your aunt taken the third child to school? When you first came back, wasn't it me who took you to school every day?"

"Huainan, have you lost this memory? Go apologize to your aunt and let this matter be over. We'll talk about other things after dinner."

Jiang Huainan entered the kitchen. "Aunt, after I apologized to my second uncle, he said, I'll come over to apologize to you again. Aunt, I really know I was wrong. I won't be like this again in the future. I will be obedient."

……

The whole family sat at the table in the main hall, and Gu Lixia brought out several bowls of porridge one by one.

Pick out the steamed buns and put them in one bowl, and put the potatoes in another bowl.

Everyone finished the porridge slowly, picked out the potato cubes, peeled them, chopped them, and added green onions, oil, salt, and shredded vegetables.

They each picked out some steamed buns and finished their breakfast.

"I have something to say. Regarding the issue I mentioned earlier, Huainan, are you going to repair your house? Are you going to repair the kitchen and the main room?"

"Your aunt's room and ours will definitely need a major renovation. When we do, we'll be in the same yard. Ours will be spacious, bright, clean, and tidy, while yours will remain the same. Can you accept that?"

"Also, from now on, in the kitchen and the main room, these public areas, anyone who sees it can help clean them? Each of you should clean your own room."

"Anything in the room is your personal chore, including washing the children's clothes. Xiu'er, you only need to clean up after yourself from now on."

"Huainan and Huaibei may still not be used to it now, so we will help first. Once the house is completely decorated, we will officially start."

"Huainan and Huaibei can seek help, but we won't take on everything. This decision is related to Huainan's request for money."

"When it comes to decorating the house, buying furniture, glass, and various materials, I will separate them. The first room will get the big share, and the second room will get the second share."

"We are also planning to replace some quilts and mattresses for our family, and the money for that will also be paid separately."

"As for other things like food, drink, and tailoring, I said I would support you three, and I will. Once my salary and that of Second Auntie comes in, we'll have money."

"See if you agree, Huainan. This time, I need you to sign for me, including the money I wanted to take away last time. I don't want you to be blamed for stealing your nephew's money when you grow up."

"If you can accept it, then let's do it. If you can't accept it, then I'll just take care of our own business."

As soon as Jiang Wen finished speaking, Jiang Huainan immediately responded, "Okay, I'll write it and sign it."

Jiang Huaibei said, "Uncle, can I still go to work with my aunt?"

"Of course, you can stay with Second Aunt every day until Auntie goes on vacation. Starting next semester, I'll send you to school, but you won't be able to do that then."

"Okay, no problem for me. I'm willing to pay for the house. What about you, little brother?" Jiang Huaibei agreed happily.

"Uncle, spend it."

Jiang Wen watched Jiang Huainan finish writing, "Sign. After signing, go wash the pots and dishes."

"Okay, since I didn't listen to my second uncle and aunt's advice and took 3000 yuan from home, and it was stolen by a thief as soon as I took it, I am willing to obey my second uncle and aunt's discipline, Jiang Huainan."

"You should also write to your two younger brothers, saying that you are willing to spend money to decorate the rooms and the main hall and guest rooms, and write your name on them. Ask Huaibei to write his name as well, but forget about Huaixi."

Gu Lixia and Jiang Xiu said, "Xiu'er, I'm taking the second and third children to work today. You and Huainan will go to school by yourselves later. We'll leave first. It will take a while to clean the office after we get there. These two should come with you. I need your second brother's help."

"Okay, sister-in-law, you go ahead. Brother has gone out to fetch water. His load will be full once he's done. He has long legs, so he'll catch up with you in no time."

"Then the three of us will leave. Be careful on your way to school." Gu Lixia led the two children away first.

"Huaibei, do you want to learn how to write? Learn arithmetic? If you want to learn, I'll give you a notebook to teach you how to write. If you don't want to learn, just watch your brother play."

"Think about it. I never went to school with my brother before. I always went with my second uncle. But my second uncle was older and I couldn't understand him. I couldn't understand him either if I went with my aunt."

"I'm following my eldest brother, but I still don't understand. Am I just dumb? That's why I can't understand anything any teacher teaches me. My second uncle has eight teachers, right? My aunt has six, right?"

"I don't know how many teachers your aunt has, but I do know how many teachers your second uncle and I have."

"Didn't you hold me in your arms for the entire class that day? When we got home, my second uncle told me I couldn't let you hold me because you hadn't even eaten enough. If you couldn't hold me and fell to the ground, we'd both end up with bloody wounds. Then I stopped pestering you to hold me. I always stayed close to my second uncle. Have you forgotten?"

"No, you are the cutest and smartest kid I have ever seen. How could I forget you?" Gu Lixia felt that Jiang Huaibei was an ideal baby.

Ideal baby Jiang Huaibei asked, "Second Aunt, do you like Second Uncle?"

No matter what, Gu Lixia wouldn't say she didn't like him. Children don't keep their mouths shut. If they tell anyone, it will have a bad influence on the Jiang family. "Why don't you like marrying him? Just to support the three of you? Impossible? You said you're not very old, but you're quite narcissistic?"

"Alas, I never realized that Second Uncle liked you before. The aunts and aunts in our family compound also said that Second Uncle was going to go to the countryside to marry a rural wife and become a farmer."

"I didn't realize you liked Second Uncle. When I went there, you only played with me and never talked to Second Uncle. Don't tell me you're lying to me, do you? I'm just a kid and you're easy to fool."

"Although you are still young and don't understand these things, I still have to tell you that marriage is a responsibility. Your second uncle and I are both very brave, so we entered into marriage and took the initiative to shoulder the revolutionary cause together."
