The journey of the heavens by Jia Huan, the salted fish

Chapter 70
"Little brother, what are you singing?" Jia Mantun asked suspiciously.

Jia Huan tilted his head, and said childishly, "I don't know either! I sang along with the singing over there."

He held the hands of Jia Mancang and Jia Mantun, and said, "Brother, sing with me!"

Jia Mantun shook his head: "I won't."

Jia Huan: "I have learned, I will teach you."

As he spoke, he taught the two children to sing sentence by sentence.

According to relevant linguistic theories, the best stage for children to learn a foreign language should be before the age of twelve.

Both Jia Mancang and Jia Mantun are less than twelve years old, so they are not slow to learn foreign languages.

Although I don't know what language and meaning they sang, I firmly remember every line of the lyrics.

After Jia Huan corrected their pronunciation, they sang very standard.

Jia Huan expressed his satisfaction.

Today's plan was successfully completed. After that, he will teach his two older brothers more songs in this way, and then take them to sing.

This is the only way he can think of to make money at this stage.

The next day, Jia Mantun and Jia Mancang went home and found that their little brother was not waiting for them at the door. They were shocked, put down their backpacks and went to find someone.

They found the little brother who was singing softly in the open space yesterday.

The little brother waved at them and smiled happily: "Brother, come quickly, I have learned a new song and I will teach you how to sing it!"

In this way, after half a month, Jia Mancang and Jia Mantun learned several songs from Jia Huan.

Seeing that Jia Huan was almost ready, on this day, he asked his two brothers to change into clean clothes, and asked them to take him to a street near the port.

There are a lot of people coming and going from the port, and this street is the busiest street, where there are either foreigners or wealthy natives.

Poor people like Jia Huan cannot enter this street.

The three of them could only stop at the place closest to the street entrance.

Jia Mancang said timidly: "Little brother, do we really want to do this?"

Jia Huan: "Don't you want to make money?"

Jia Mantun: "I want to, but I'm afraid."

Jia Huan: "What's there to be afraid of? I'm not afraid at all, just like singing normally."

After speaking, he sang the hymn "Praise the Lord" first.

When Jia Mancang and Jia Mantun heard the familiar melody, they couldn't help humming softly.After singing a few words, he let go and sang along with Jia Huan loudly.

The crisp children's voice flowed out, and passers-by heard the hymns and thought it was children from the church choir singing, but when they looked, they found that it was three local children singing.

There is also a small wooden box in front of them, which looks like a singer.

The foreigners saw that the three children were pretty cute, they sang Catholic hymns, and their pronunciation was even more standard than that of the children in the choir.

Foreigners are all rich, and the banknotes left behind, even the lowest amount, can be exchanged for a piece of ocean!

This piece of ocean can buy good moving things!
When Jia Mancang saw the money in the wooden box, his eyes turned red and he sang even louder.

After singing "Praise the Lord", they sang several other hymns before leaving the wooden box with satisfaction.

It's not that no one is jealous of the money.

But the three children sang songs in foreign languages, which seemed to have something to do with foreigners.

No one dared to offend foreigners, nor dared to rob these three children who seemed to be related to foreigners, and let them leave with huge sums of money.

It's really a "huge sum". The sum of these sums is equivalent to Jia Erzi's annual income.

In the end, it was the daily income of three children.

Jia Erzi, Zhang Chunni and the two older sisters were shocked.

"Can you make so much money just by singing?"

Second sister Jia Dongmei asked with sparkling eyes.

Singing can make money, so can she also sing?

Jia Mantun curled his lips: "You have to be able to sing foreign songs."

The relationship between Jia Mantun and Jia Dongmei is not good. Jia Dongmei's personality is too strong, unlike the elder sister Jia Qiuju who always takes care of her younger brother. She will grab things with her younger brother, especially food, which makes both younger brothers dislike her.

Of course, she doesn't like the debt collector ghost brother either, she likes the cute little brother.

Jia Dongmei said directly to Jia Huan, "Little brother, teach me to sing foreign songs."

Jia Huan nodded.

Jia Dongmei picked up Jia Huan and kissed his little face.

"Little brother is the best brother in the world."

"Sister, don't kiss anymore, men and women can't accept kissing."

Jia Huan pushed Jia Dongmei hard, even if he was his own sister, he was not used to being so close to people.

Jia Qiuju hugged Jia Huan, and said to Jia Dongmei: "Okay, don't make trouble with me."

Jia Huan turned her head and buried her head in Jia Qiuju's arms, the older sister was the best.

Jia Qiuju is the eldest of the Jia family's children. She is sixteen years old this year, and she is old enough to say goodbye.

It's just that, because the family is poor, they don't even have a dowry, so even though they look good, not many people are willing to marry such a daughter-in-law.

it's good now.

Zhang Chunni took out one-fifth of the money and said, "This part of the money is for the dowry."

Jia Qiuju was grateful and touched, and declined: "Mother, no need, let's use it to improve the conditions of the family. The weather is getting colder and colder, so let's use the money to buy some thick padded jackets."

Zhang Chunni: "The money is still with you to buy dowry. Your father and I can survive the cold, so we won't buy padded jackets this year. The rest of the money will be bought for each of the five of you."

Jia Qiuju shook her head: "It's better to buy cotton-padded jackets for parents first."

The two mother and daughter pushed back and forth, Jia Mancang couldn't stand it anymore.

"Mother, eldest sister, don't push it around, buy cotton jackets for parents first. Tomorrow, my brother and I will go to the port to sing and earn money to make a dowry for eldest sister."

Zhang Chunni slapped her thigh: "Why did I forget, this singing is not a one-time sale, and it can continue!"

Jia Qiuju was taken aback when she heard this, and then smiled.

"Then I will thank my brothers for preparing the dowry money first."

"You're welcome." Jia Mancang and Jia Mantun held their heads high.

Jia Huan also showed a big smile.

Jia Erzi made a final decision: "Mother, take Qiu Ju to the pawn shop tomorrow morning and buy seven padded jackets. You want the thick ones and newer ones. This year, we will all wear new clothes once."

Zhang Chunni nodded again and again, and said, "Tomorrow I'll buy a piece of meat and a fish, and cook something good for you."

The children and Jia Erzi all began to swallow their saliva.

Meat!They haven't eaten for a long time.

Jia Mantun remembered that when he ate meat, he only ate a piece of meat the size of a fingernail.

That taste is absolutely amazing!
So delicious!

I really want to, I really want to eat meat again!
