What happened to Yi Sheng in the school not only shocked Huang Yushu, but also frightened her.
After making some promises, Huang Yushu helped Ms. Liu lie down, looked at her and said, "These messy things will happen next, but don't affect your mood. You mainly need to take care of yourself and the third child now."
"Don't worry, I understand. You should also look at Watson. This incident with the Mipu family must have frightened him. I don't think he has a smile on his face these days."
The moment she lay down, Mrs. Liu thought of Watson and looked at Huang Yushu's explanation.
When Watson heard this, he thought that his father was about to come out, and quickly walked outside quietly.
If my parents don’t want to deal with their own affairs, it’s best to pretend they don’t know.
Returning to the counter and looking at Uncle Liu holding a cup of hot tea, Watson was stunned. He didn't expect that his eldest brother would be so courageous. He, who was only two years younger than his eldest sister, would actually run to Qingcheng.
If Dad hadn't gone to school, I'm afraid the family would still be in the dark.
The eldest sister came because she was afraid that something might happen to her brother, so she didn't dare to say anything. Secondly, I was afraid that my father would be angry, and I was afraid of damaging my mother's body, so I kept it in my heart and dared not say it out.
I was worried about my eldest brother, but in my little heart I had the urge to take a leap of faith. If my heart was as big as my eldest brother, would I follow my husband and pursue my dream?
Uncle Liu, who was holding the tea, didn't know what Watson was thinking. He just looked at him and asked, "Watson, it's going to be summer soon. When will your school have holidays?"
Watson looked at him and smiled: "I didn't know, I'm afraid I have to listen to my husband's arrangements for this."
Especially in Watson's heart, he was also looking forward to an early vacation so that he could play with Er Gouzi and his sister. Whether it's fishing in the creek at the back of the mountain or playing in the mountains, these are his favorite things.
However, what he is looking forward to this year is that his eldest brother and eldest sister will come back early. He wants to ask his eldest brother how he was at that time. What did he see when he followed his husband to Tawo?
At the same time, he secretly made a decision in his heart.
From now on, I must make my own efforts so that my mother can live a carefree life and no longer worry about myself and my eldest brother.
"Watson, why are you so honest today? Isn't your foot healed already?"
At this moment, Sister Hong came back from outside and greeted Watson with a smile.
"Sister Hong, where have you been playing? I'm here to help Uncle Liu look after the store." Seeing Sister Hong coming back from outside, Watson looked at him, smiled, and responded.
"It's rare that you've been so good lately, come and give you two candies!"
After finishing speaking, Sister Hong handed a few ginger candies in her hand to Huasheng: "I got these from the shop in front of me. I'm going to reward you!"
Watson reached out and took one, gave another to Uncle Liu, and returned the remaining two to Sister Hong, smiling: "When I come back from the holiday and catch some small fish, I'll fry them for Sister Hong." "
When Sister Hong saw it, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Sister Hong, I'll wait until you come back with more fish and shrimp. Your mother will also like to eat them."
"When I go with my eldest brother and eldest sister after the holiday, I can definitely catch him."
Watson took a bite of the peeled ginger candy, looked at Sister Hong and smiled.
"Watson, have you memorized the text Mr. left today? Bring the book to me and take a look!" Huang Yushu asked as he walked out, looking at Watson sitting at the counter.
Hearing his voice, Watson stood up and ran toward the house. "Wait, I'm going to get my school bag!"
After Watson disappeared, Huang Yushu shook his head helplessly, thinking that this little guy would probably be more difficult to serve than the boss when he grew up.
Thinking of this, Huang Yushu couldn't help but frown, showing a solemn expression.
"Did something happen in the county?" Uncle Liu looked at Huang Yushu and asked in a serious voice.
"Things happen every day in the county. As long as it has nothing to do with us, I am too lazy to care." Huang Yushu thought for a while and did not tell Yi Sheng's matter. After all, the matter has passed and it is useless to talk more.
Uncle Liu thought for a while, looked at him and said, "That's right. These days, everyone only cares about their own family affairs. How can they have time to worry about others!"
Sister Hong laughed at the side and said, "It's a little guy like Watson who likes to care about world affairs!"
...
The hot summer finally arrived, and Huang Yuanfang and Huang Yisheng, who had stayed in Baiyu City for half a year, also returned to the town.
This time, Huang Yushu went to the city to pick up the two children in person, because he received reports that the children of the people in the town did not go home during the holidays and went directly to the Imperial City to try to see if they could enter the Royal Academy.
Watson waited at home for a few days. Before his father came back with his eldest sister and brother, he ran to the blacksmith shop opposite to watch the new blacksmith forging iron.
Every novel thing is the object of attention for the children in the town.
The new blacksmith's surname is Hu, which doesn't seem to be from the local area.
Unable to bear the onlookers of the town's children, he had to catch up several times throughout the day. What surprised Watson was that this young blacksmith never caught up with him.
After thinking about it later, it could only be because his home was opposite the blacksmith shop, and Blacksmith Hu was too embarrassed to meet an acquaintance.
However, what Watson didn't know was that Huang Yushu and Uncle Liu came to see the young craftsmen's workmanship long after the blacksmith shop opened, and customized some of their daily ironware here.
With the money exchange, how could the blacksmith drive Watson away?
Watson was able to keep his composure. After reading every day, he would hang out in front of the blacksmith shop opposite. He would stand there for less than a quarter of an hour, either letting Sister Hong carry him home, or letting Ergou call him up to the corn block. play.
On this day, Watson came back from the creek with Er Gou and Er Gou's sister Xiao Lian. He was carrying a small fish basket and carrying a fishing net. Before he entered the door, he saw Sister Hong standing at the door of the shop. Sister.
"Sister is back!" Watson shouted happily and ran over.
"Watson, did you go to the creek to catch fish again? Who did you go with today?"
Huang Yuanfang did not ask Watson how many fish he had caught, but she was concerned about who he went to the creek with. After all, there were several deep water areas where Watson could not go.
"I'm with Ergou and sister Xiaolian! When did you come back, eldest sister? Is eldest brother back?"
Watson held the eldest sister's hand, and Huang Yuanfang didn't mind the fishy smell on his body. She was relieved when she heard that Watson went to the creek with Ergou and a group of children.
"Your eldest brother is talking to your mother in the back, and your father is also in the back. Do you want to go and take a look?"
When Watson heard this, he took her hand and walked to the back of the house. After walking two steps, he turned to look at Sister Hong and said with a smile: "Sister Hong, there are a lot of small fish today, and there are also shrimps. You can fry a big bowl." ."
Sister Hong looked at him and smiled and said, "You know that eldest sister and eldest brother are coming back, so you went to catch fish!" After saying that, she took the bamboo basket from Watson's hand. The three of them walked to the back room together.
"Brother, are you back?" Watson shouted impatiently before he even ran into the back room.
Sister Hong looked at Huang Yuanfang and said with a smile: "This guy just likes to ask questions knowingly. He has no good intentions."
Huang Yisheng, who was sitting in the room chatting with Mr. Liu, heard Watson's shouting, smiled on his face, looked at Huang Yushu and said, "This guy finally came back from the wild."
Mrs. Liu looked at him and smiled and said: "Don't talk about your brother. He has become a lot better now. You guys came back just in time. He went fishing with Ergou and his two brothers and sisters after lunch today."
When Huang Yushu heard this, he looked at her and said with a smile: "That guy went to catch fish in the creek again? It seems that he will take the three of you to the creek in the back mountain in a few days."
Watson, who came in, took Huang Yisheng's hand and said with a smile: "Brother, you don't care about your mother anymore. You didn't come back to take a look at my brother when he was born last time."
When Huang Yisheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment and stared at Huang Yushu without saying anything.
Huang Yushu stretched out his hand and pinched Watson's little face, and then smelled it: "You smell like fish all over your body. Go take a bath and change into clean clothes. Don't stink your brother."
Watson also stretched out his hand to smell his sleeve, looked at Mrs. Liu and Huang Yushu and said with a smile, "Hey, I forgot to take a shower before moving around."
After saying that, I stopped asking why my eldest brother didn't come back, and turned around and ran out of the house. The little guy was also a tidy person.
"Would you like to ask Sister Hong to help you wash your back?" Ms. Liu shouted.
"No! I can wash it myself!" Watson, who is already five years old, is shy.
Huang Yushu couldn't explain the boss's matter to Watson, so he could only find an excuse to send Watson away.
Mrs. Liu knew the inside story. She watched Watson running out of the house and said to Huang Yisheng: "Since what happened at the rice shop on the street, your brother has become a lot better. You can take him to play more often during the holidays." , he is thinking about you as the big brother all day long."
When Huang Yisheng heard this, he couldn't help but lower his head and replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, mother, I will take good care of my brother."
Huang Yuanfang glanced at him and said softly: "My younger brother has grown up. The last time he went with me to the creek, he had already learned to catch fish by himself. I'm afraid you are not as good as him as the eldest brother."
When Ms. Liu heard this, she looked at her and said with a smile, "Where are you?"
When Huang Yuanfang heard this, her face suddenly turned red and she replied softly: "Mom, I'm a girl, how can I go wild with him?"
Huang Yushu looked at the two of them with a look of satisfaction on his face: "It's a trivial matter to catch fish and shrimp. You just study hard in school and take care of your brother during the holidays."
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she glanced at Huang Fusheng sleeping in her arms and said softly: "In a few years, when the third child grows up, you will have to take him to study and learn to read together."
"Some of our classmates want to go to the Royal Academy. I wonder if they will be accepted there?" Huang Yuanfang said softly, looking at his mother.
When Huang Yisheng heard this, he couldn't help but glance at his parents.
In their hearts, both of them looked forward to the opportunity to study at the Royal Academy in Yuanling.
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she did not answer the two children, but glanced at Huang Yushu.
Huang Yushu looked at the three of them and sighed, and said softly: "The world is not good this time, and we can't go to many far places. Naturally, we have less goods and business is not as good as before."
"It's chaos outside, and people are dying every day. I don't allow your father to travel far away to buy goods. You have to understand your parents' feelings. It's not easy to go to school in White Jade City. I've seen Watson go there for a few years."
Mrs. Liu did not agree to the request of her two children this time. In her opinion, spending money was a trivial matter. After all, the Royal Academy was too far away from her family.
Huang Yushu glanced at the two of them and said seriously: "The second son of the Mipu family next door was beaten to death by water bandits on his way home. I don't want you to have much knowledge, as long as the family is safe!" "
Neither he nor Ms. Liu wanted their two children to be too far away from home. Baiyucheng is no longer close to home. If you go to the Royal Academy, it will be further away.
Huang Yuanfang didn't expect that her parents would reject her request, so she couldn't help but lower her head and look at her pair of cloth shoes.
Huang Yisheng looked at Huang Yushu and asked, "The second oldest child in the Mipu family is dead? He seems to be not much older than the eldest sister!"
Huang Yushu looked at the two of them, shook his head and replied: "He is not yet twenty years old, and his parents have fainted from crying several times!"
Mrs. Liu thought for a while, looked at the two of them and said, "Mom, I promise you that after the water bandits here are eliminated in the Imperial City, you can go to school wherever you want. Your father and I will support you."
Upon hearing this, Huang Yuanfang raised her head, looked at Mrs. Liu, smiled, and said softly: "I want to go to the Royal Academy."
"I'm going too! With eldest sister." Huang Yisheng looked at Huang Yushu and said softly.
While the four of them were chatting softly, Watson's voice sounded outside the house: "Mom and dad, Sister Hong asked you if you need to add chili pepper to the fried fish?"
