Chapter 120 (1/2)
”Mom, you should not be envious of my brother-in-law catching scorpions. Do you want to catch them, too?”
”I'm scared to death when I see that thing. I won't do it!”
Li Mingyun glared at her daughter. ”I mean, your brother-in-law sells scorpions and don't spend money indiscriminately. The situation at home is there again.”
”Don't worry, mom. My brother-in-law has already handed in 200 yuan to my grandmother, and he has just given me ten yuan of pocket money.”
”It's not bad,” Li said Mei Xiaoran said, ”you see how hard ray works, you don't just know how to play.”
”Mom, you don't have to think about me. I'm going to take Zhou Yan to the popsicle factory to pack ice sticks tomorrow.”
Li Mingyun almost thought he had heard something wrong, ”what? What are you talking about? ”
”I said that I would take Zhou Yan to the ice hockey factory tomorrow to pack popsicles, each one for one cent. If I could pack about ten popsicles in a minute, I could pack dozens of popsicles in an hour. Let alone more, I could always earn one or two yuan a afternoon?”
”Don't you mind? Girls don't run to such a cold place, and your family doesn't need your little money. ”
”Mom, I don't approve of that. Is this about money? This will enable us to cultivate the spirit of hard work and hard work from childhood Mei Xiaoran said, with a playful smile, ”what's more, on such a hot day, Zhou Yan and I can work in such a cool place and eat popsicles. How cool it is
”Then you go, that is, I don't want to affect your study. You should finish all your homework in the morning and go back in the afternoon.”
This is Li Mingyun's final concession, others can be discussed, but this matter is not discussed.
”It's easy for you to work in a ice mill for two or three hours a day, so you think it's easy for you to work in a ice mill for two or three hours a day
”All right.”
In this way, Mei Xiaoran happily took Zhou Yan to pack ice sticks in the afternoon When they came back in the evening, they filled many popsicles with enamel teapots.
”Mom, it's all from the popsicle factory. You can try it too.”
Seeing that her daughter was so happy, Li Mingyun was embarrassed to say anything against her. She just warned her again and again, ”if you and Zhou Yan can't bear it, you can come back quickly. The family can still afford you.”
”Yes, my good mother.”
Mei Xiaoran said that she was educating the children for several aunts!
The children of the Li sisters did not belong to particularly capable people after they entered the society. In the final analysis, they all had powerful and capable parents. Because when the father and mother had suffered too much when he was a child, he would not be willing to let his children suffer a little. As a result, when they grow up, they do not have much to do.
Take Zhou Yan and Zhou Kai for example. Zhou Yan got married and married when she was in her twenties. After getting married, she was rejected by her mother-in-law because she had three daughters in succession. Finally, she was forced to divorce. But after her divorce, she came back to her mother's house, and she was still in her thirties. She had to wait for her parents. She could not bear to put her hands on her clothes and open her mouth when she was eating. This is what she used to do since childhood.
Zhou Kai, on the other hand, didn't take the entrance examination after he got married. His parents thought that he couldn't get out of the gate. He was as stupid as a landlord's son Finally, one day, Zhou Kai couldn't stand it any more. He quietly ran out of his home and worked in the south. Finally, he stayed in the South and didn't come back. When he mentioned his parents, he didn't have any gratitude. His family was indifferent.
