Going through the book and raising younger siblings

Chapter 9
9. Overboard
Aunt Yang's mother and son had also heard about Zhang Yu's attitude for a long time, and they never bargained for the price. In all fairness, the price was indeed not high, so when they arrived at Zhang's house, they settled on buying a house without bargaining.

Aunt Yang agreed to collect enough money and send it to Zhang Yu three days later.

Zhang Yu said: "Aunt Yang, three days later, in three days, if someone comes to ask, I will not sell the house to others, but you have to give me a deposit of 50 yuan! Otherwise, after three days, you I suddenly said no to buy, didn’t I miss other buyers! After all, we are going to the city in five days, time waits for no one.”

What Zhang Yu said was reasonable, and Aunt Yang agreed happily: "Okay, a deposit of 50 yuan, I'll go home and pick it up."

"Okay, if your family changes your mind after three days and doesn't want to buy it, the 50 yuan will be liquidated damages and will not be refunded to you. If you collect enough 450 yuan after three days, the house will belong to your family."

Aunt Yang smiled and said: "I heard that girl, you have changed a lot since grandpa left, and you have become shrewd. I have seen it today, okay, anyway, I have decided to buy this house. I will change my mind, so if you want a deposit, just accept it!"

Naturally, an agreement was signed on the sale of the house to Aunt Yang's family, and the village head and accountant were called to prove it.

Zhang Yu's agreement was so detailed and thorough that the village chief and accountant were amazed.

On the third day of wearing a book, Zhang Yu did two important things, and they all went smoothly. She breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, Zhang Da Niu was a kind and hardworking girl. She was apprehensive about going to the city, but after meeting Zhao Chunhua, she was deeply fascinated by him.

Therefore, she brought her younger siblings into the city, but she was reluctant to give up Zhao Chunhua, the future son-in-law.

For him, Zhang Da Niu brought her younger siblings to live in the Zhao family, took care of all the housework in the Zhao family, and tried her best to cook all kinds of delicacies to please her future mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but her efforts were not to please her, and instead she was tricked by them. dislike.

Because of her low self-esteem, and because she loved Zhao Chunhua too much, Zhang Da Niu lived a humble and painful life, so naturally she couldn't take good care of her younger siblings, so after the three siblings entered the city, their lives were very unsatisfactory.

Zhang Daniu and Zhao Chunhua did not get married in the end, and Zhao Chunhua's mother and sister were involved. More importantly, Zhang Daniu felt that she could not drag Zhao Chunhua down, so she chose to leave.

Erniu and Xiaobao had good academic performance, but in order to become self-reliant earlier, the younger sister went to a technical school after graduating from junior high school, and was assigned to work in a factory after graduation.

The younger brother graduated from junior high school to join the army, and was demobilized and joined the factory. As a result, during the wave of major reforms in 2000, both the younger brother and the younger sister were laid off.

In fact, if Miss Zhang didn’t bring her younger siblings to the city, she would be able to support them in the countryside, because she is very capable, and she is also a person who can endure hardships and stand hard work. Her younger siblings can also help her with work, Zhang Yu forgets After all, their family's field is the best fertile field in the village. It is close to the village and on the side of the road. It is convenient to work, so it is not a problem to support their three brothers and sisters on this three acres of land. Moreover, even if it is difficult in life, But mentally, they won't suffer as much.

Girls like Zhang Daniu are very popular in the rural marriage market. If she lives in the countryside with a hardworking and kind-hearted guy, she will have a good life.

They can live freely in their own homes and in the villages they are familiar with, but when they enter the city, Miss Zhang is like a bird flying freely in the sky, whose wings were clipped and fell to the ground, losing her original identity as a flying bird. have a survival advantage.

If you are in the countryside, your younger siblings can be admitted to an ideal university and live a good life with their excellent grades.

But when they entered the city, their sister Zhang Da Niu couldn't protect them well and made them feel inferior. Although the Zhao family was doing their best to help them and let them all have a job, the changes in society made them feel inferior in their destiny. In the vortex, you drift with the current and cannot be independent.

Zhang Yu is just the opposite. She can't lift her shoulders or her hands. In Dongyang Village, where even the water has to be carried on her shoulders, she doesn't have any survival advantage.

Her advantage lies in the city, and only by entering the city can she give full play to her advantages. Summarizing the tragedy of Zhang Da Niu living in the Zhao family after entering the city, Zhang Yu knows that she cannot live with her younger siblings this time. In the Zhao family, only her siblings can live alone. Of course, the help the Zhao family gave her is also very important.

Because of the support of the Zhao family, she has the courage and confidence to sell grain and houses to put all her eggs in one basket.

She wanted to leave here as soon as possible, she was afraid that after a long time, people in the village would discover the gap between her and Miss Zhang.

At home, Xiaobao is young and easy to fool, but Erniu is not easy to fool. She has already discovered that the current eldest sister is different from the previous eldest sister in many ways.

In the past, the elder sister carried water with such ease that it was better than strolling in the garden. She even carried water on her shoulders, and could hold a basin of clothes or vegetables in her hand. What I did, but now, the eldest sister was carrying the water, only half of the bucket, and she was bent over, her expression was so painful that she grinned her teeth, and she stopped several times on the road. Especially awkward.

Not only carrying water, but no matter what she does in the farm, she looks very awkward, such as chopping firewood, lighting a fire, these tasks, the eldest sister used to do these tasks smoothly and quickly, but now she looks like a person who has never done these things and has just learned to do them. .

Erniu couldn't help questioning, Zhang Yu lied to Erniu, saying that she was very sad because of her grandfather's death these days, and she was not feeling well, so she couldn't do anything in a trance.

Er Niu believed it temporarily.

But if it takes a long time, the villagers will definitely see it.

At noon the next day, Zhang Yu went to fetch water again. There was nothing to do in the field these days, nothing more than cooking a meal every day, and his younger siblings went to hunt pigweed, so carrying water was the heaviest physical work.

Zhang Yu is most afraid of carrying water, but water has to be used, and she is a person who loves cleanliness. She uses a lot of water, so she naturally picks a lot. In Zhang Yu's view, carrying such a heavy physical work seems to It was so heavy that she couldn't breathe, so she couldn't bear to let her 11-year-old sister do it, no matter how reluctant she was, she could only do it by herself.

From a distance, Zhang Yu saw that the pond next to the well was full of people.

Although it is said that there are people washing and scrubbing there every day, there are not so many people!

Did something happen?

A person hurried past Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu recognized it. It was Qiangzi, Yingzi's elder brother.

Later, Yingzi's mother came over while crying.
