Chapter 8 Grandmother

Zhao Changqing felt that people might be born differently.

Regardless of whether the reincarnation is good or bad, the qualifications between people are different. For example, Li Huaer is smart and smart when born.

When the pears are ripe, Zhao Changqing received a basket of pears from Xiao Lihuaer. The pears are not big and can be seen to have been scrubbed, so they are all clean and beautiful, and even the willow baskets containing pears are exquisite and beautiful.

Little Lihuaer was much more generous than when she came back. She looked at Mrs. Zhao with a good look. Lihuaer said, "Old lady, I'll come to play with Sister Qing. The pears at home are ripe. The rain is less this year. The pears are not very big, but they are very sweet. My mother told me to send some to the old lady and Sister Qing will try them."

Old Mrs. Zhao smiled, "Okay, tell your mother, thank her for thinking about it." She asked again about how good her two younger brothers, Mrs. Xing and Li Huaer.

Li Huaer said with a smile, her mouth clear and clever.

Zhao Changqing asked, "Sister Lihua'er, did you make the basket yourself? It's so beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful basket outside."

Xiao Lihua'er smiled, "My mother and I have weaved baskets now, and the baskets are sold to the grocery store. There are many more at home. I knitted this basket and it is best to use it to hold fruits. Sister Qing, if you want to like it, when will you go to my house to see it? There are so many varieties."

"Okay." Zhao Changqing smiled, "Grandmother, I'll go to my house to play with Sister Li Huaer."

"Go." Old Mrs. Zhao always felt that Zhao Changqing had no friends and was not as lively as ordinary children. What was the point of studying all day long? She wanted her to go and play, so she asked Liu'er to give them some snacks.

Zhao Changqing said, "Wash a plate of pears brought by Sister Li Huaer."

Xiao Lihua'er likes to come to the Zhao family. She likes the harmony of the family. She also likes the white and tender Zhao Changqing. Zhao Changqing is different from those two children who have bad money at home and look down on others. Xiao Lihua'er can feel that Zhao Changqing has never looked down on her. Similarly, Xiao Lihua'er is busy at home and is also a person with no friends. When two people who have no friends come together, they soon become good friends.

Xiao Lihuaer talked about the interesting story of her weaving willow baskets and said, "I didn't understand at first. The grocery store gave the materials and I worked. I only gave me five copper plates of such a large basket. I was so stupid that I was so happy." Xiao Lihuaer gestured and took a bite and said, "Later, I asked quietly. Others had at least eight copper plates. I was so angry that I found the boss and told me that he only gave me eight copper plates. It's a pity that he refused to ask for money for the baskets he had made up for me before."

Zhao Changqing said, "After a loss, you will learn a lesson. You should go to other grocery stores to get some work back, and see which one gives you a higher price. Once you practice your skills, the price will naturally rise."

Xiao Lihuaer raised her eyebrows and smiled, stretched out three fingers at Zhao Changqing, and said proudly, "Now my mother and I are supporting the three shops. I didn't know how to make money before, and my devil father was spending money every day, and the family was very poor. Although I don't earn much now, you don't know how to make money, Changqing." Xiao Lihuaer said with a smile on her face, and her beautiful eyes were so bright.

"What does it feel?"

Xiao Lihua'er thought for a while and said, "It's like when I went out and saw someone selling sesame cakes and snacks outside, I only drooled. Now when I see it again, I can calculate when I can buy it for food."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "It can be seen that people still need to have the ability and have a skill, so they have a clear mind and don't have to be afraid at any time."

"Yes." Xiao Lihuaer felt that Zhao Changqing's words were reasonable. She envied, "The people who study are different. It depends on your words."

"What's the point of studying? It's very simple. But you are the only way to make money now." Zhao Changqing pulled Xiao Lihuaer to her small desk, lifted the inkstone, spread a piece of paper, and wrote the three words "Zhao Lihua" by dipping it in the pen, and said, "Sister Lihuaer, this is your name."

Li Huaer forgot to continue eating snacks when she saw it, and stared at her eyes and asked, "Is this my name? Li Hua?"

"Well, this is the word Zhao, this is pronounced as pear, this is pronounced as flower." Zhao Changqing pointed it to Xiaolihuaer.

Put your fingers on and touch them carefully. Li Huaer was a little excited and urged, "Sister Qing, please write about my brother's name again. My brother is called Lizi, and my little brother is called Liguo."

Zhao Changqing wrote to Xiaolihuaer again. Xiaolihuaer took it for a long time and said, "Sister Qing, please give me this piece of paper. I will take it back for my mother to show you, and also ask my brother to recognize his name."

"Okay." Zhao Changqing put down his pen and smiled, "If you want to learn to recognize words, just tell me. It's not difficult. We don't have to take the exam for fame or honor. We recognize words, like Sister Li Huaer, and it will be convenient to keep accounts in the future."

Li Huaer was stunned at first, frowned and thought for a moment, Fang's eyes lit up, and he slapped his palm and said, "It's the reason my sister said. It's not about the convenience of accounting. Li Zi is one year older than my sister. I just happened to be able to go back to teach him after I learned this. My sister gave me this piece of paper. I'll go back to see me and learn my name first. When I remember the name, I'll come to my sister to learn other words, okay?"

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Anyway, I have nothing else to do at home every day, so I can come just by myself."

Xiao Lihua'er was so happy that she didn't know what to do. She stuffed half of the snack in her hand into her mouth, suddenly picked up Zhao Changqing and turned it around twice, rubbed Zhao Changqing's round face hard, grabbed the rice paper full of the names of the three siblings, and ran home without saying a word.

Liu'er was shocked by Li Hua'er, for fear of scaring Zhao Changqing, so he hurriedly called out, "Miss?"

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I'm fine."

"There is also Miss Lihua'er. She looks quite steady on weekdays, but why is she suddenly crazy?" Liu'er muttered to smooth out Zhao Changqing's wrinkled dress that was wrinkled by Lihua'er.

Zhao Changqing smiled and said, "Didn't you see that Sister Li Huaer is happy?"

"That's true. Girls should be as steady and generous as girls." Liu'er is mostly with Zhao Changqing now, and her heart is naturally biased towards Zhao Changqing.

Zhao Changqing tilted his head to look at Liu'er and said, "Girls should be as self-reliant as Sister Li Huaer."

"The girl is just treating people very well." Liu'er asked, "Does the girl want to practice calligraphy?"

"Write again in the afternoon."

Liu'er then put away the pen and ink.

Zhao Changqing went out to talk to the old lady, and the old lady Zhao laughed, "I'm just talking, why did Li Huaer run away? Are you quarreling?"

Zhao Changqing laughed, "How could it be?" and said about writing Li Huaer's name, and then talked about Xiao Li Huaer and the others making money by making baskets.

Old Mrs. Zhao nodded, touched Zhao Changqing's head, and said in a gentle voice, "Li Huaer is really capable. It is rare that you have a good temper and get along well."

Zhao Changqing agreed and asked the old lady to teach her to read a page of books. Ling came over to discuss the matter. Zhao Changqing closed the letter and said hello to Ling, "Mother is here."

It was September, and Ling's belly was slightly pregnant. Fortunately, it was getting colder today and it was very comfortable. Even though she was pregnant, after morning sickness, Ling had nourished her slightly rounded. Zhao Changqing had never liked to go to the main courtyard. Ling was too lazy to move after she became pregnant. Old Mrs. Zhao was not mean, so she followed Ling to eat in her courtyard. Before she knew it, the mother and daughter had not seen each other for several days. At this moment, Ling saw Zhao Changqing and smiled, "Have you pestered your grandmother to study again? Is the pen, ink and paper enough?"

“It’s all enough.”

Ling nodded, and turned to ask Mrs. Zhao how good breakfast was used. She first talked about family matters. Ling said, "My wife thought about something and calculated that next month would be her grandmother's birthday. I thought about the birthday gift and started cooking. I wonder what mother meant? My wife could make arrangements and preparations."

The grandmother mentioned here is Zhao Yong's grandmother, and the legitimate mother of Mrs. Zhao - the ancestor of the Zhu family - the old lady Zhu. The Zhu family is quite famous in the border town. Logically, such a family, even if Mrs. Zhao is a concubine's daughter, she should not marry into the Zhao family, a small military household. This is really a long story. First of all, the despair of the ancestor Zhu family must start.

The ancestor of the Zhu family, Mrs. Zhu, unfortunately experienced the decline of the Zhu family. The reason for the decline of the Zhu family was very simple, because Mrs. Zhu did not cultivate her in her previous life and married a prodigal husband, Mrs. Zhu. Fortunately, Mrs. Zhu is capable. No matter how difficult it is, she did not ask Mrs. Zhu to completely ruin her property. She also had a strong man and a strong man. She gave birth to three sons in one go, and all of them were famous. Now her eldest son is serving as the third-rank minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the court and is a high-ranking official.

Mr. Zhu was useless. Seeing that his family business was down, he was lucky. His three sons took over the Zhu family and took care of the family business to a higher level than before. Therefore, Mr. Zhu was lucky enough to continue his life journey of waste and scattered life.

Strangely, the family liner like the Zhu family, not to mention that the children and grandchildren are not unfilial people. In theory, Mrs. Zhu should not live in her hometown no matter how much she is. She should live with her children and grandchildren and enjoy family life. As a result, Mrs. Zhu insisted on her hometown in the border town and lived in the same place with her concubine's son who was guarding her family business.

Of course, there is a reason for this, and the reason is still with Mr. Zhu.

Unlike Mrs. Zhu's strong and capable ability, Mr. Zhu was a playboy when he was young and grew up to be a prodigal family. If Mr. Zhu had not had a mother who knew him with a keen mother and a keen mother, the Zhu family would have said that there would be some pit in the Zhu family?

Mr. Zhu has always been a confused person, and has been confused for most of his life. When he was young, he relied on his wife. When he was old and his wife was no longer able to do so, his son started to rely on his son. After his son made a fortune, he sent a reliable manager to take him to the imperial capital to be filial. Mrs. Zhu hesitated for a while, but Mr. Zhu couldn't wait. He wanted to see the scenery of the imperial capital, so he urged the old lady at home all day long. The old lady was concerned about her children and grandchildren, so she was with her elders.

The great-grandson went with him. As a result, Mr. Zhu was really a natural troublemaker. He was still in the imperial capital and was so shameless. Mrs. Zhu had already seen through the old man over the years. If Mrs. Zhu had lost his face, Mrs. Zhu would not frown. In her eyes, the old man would have lost his face. But this is the imperial capital and he can't help his son. Do you still have to pull his son back?

Old Mrs. Zhu thought for two days and immediately dragged the old man back to his hometown border town. Since then, she has locked the old man tightly in the border town. As long as she doesn't drag her son down, she will go with the old man!

When it comes to Mr. Zhu, his only contribution to the Zhu family is to have children.

Mr. Zhu is the only son in the family, and has a single family for three generations. His population is small. However, after Mr. Zhu has been working hard for many years, the total number of children of the legitimate and illegitimate children is more than a dozen. Not to mention anything else, the population is prosperous enough.

It is conceivable how upset Mrs. Zhu, the legitimate mother, was doing it.

Mr. Zhu gave birth to a child at any cost. The Zhu family was in decline and had not yet revived. Therefore, it was not unusual to marry into a small military family like Mrs. Zhao. What is rare is that Mrs. Zhu, the legitimate mother, is not mean. If the concubine son and daughter marry, there will always be a betrothal gift and dowry.

However, if you talk about feelings, that's it.

Originally, the relationship between Mrs. Zhao and her legitimate mother was just ordinary, but Mrs. Zhao was not very lucky. She was young and was widowed. She lived alone with her son and had to rely on her parents' home. As they had more contact, they found some feelings. Even now, Mrs. Zhao also took Zhao Changqing to the Zhu family to visit her legitimate mother from time to time.

Mrs. Zhu saw that she was almost seventy years old, and Mrs. Zhao said, "My mother said she wouldn't do it. I sewed all the clothes. The fruits and fruits are abundant now. We also have an orchard. You can pack some of the best fruits and fruits in the cellar and put them in it. Then the whole family will just kowtow."

Ling replied with a smile, "My grandmother likes purity and does not like to show off. But my nephew studied the affiliation of her grandmother's family, and she also wanted to do her best when she was on her grandmother's birthday. Will my mother think it's appropriate?"

Old Mrs. Zhao said, "There is nothing suitable or not. Since you have this kind of heart, it is the past."

Ling smiled, "Okay, then I'll let someone pick the fruit first."

"Go, just ask the girls to do it. You have body, don't be tired."

Ling naturally put his hand on his lower abdomen and smiled, "Mother, don't worry, I'm not the first time I've had a body. This child is very well-behaved and doesn't make a big fuss. Now let's arrange everything first, so as not to get fucked. Some new materials in the shop arrived, so I asked someone to bring a few fresh ones back, thinking that our family of four will cut a new dress and wear it to my grandmother's birthday when she celebrates her birthday, which is also decent."

Old Mrs. Zhao laughed, "Just do it, I have some clothes."

Ling smiled and advised, "Where is the mother's clothes left? Even if my mother has them, she has done them before. No children and grandchildren have cut new clothes, but the only reason for her mother is left behind. If the mother refuses, we will have no face to cut new clothes."

Old Mrs. Zhao smiled, "Okay, I'll follow you."

Ling said a few more jokes before getting up to say goodbye.
