Chapter 20 Buying Cows

The registration time for the start of school was two days. The next day, Yan Changqing and the others did not dare to delay and set off again.

Because I had just beaten someone, I was afraid of meeting those people again, so I didn’t dare to go to the city again this time.

I didn’t go to the oil fields either. The schools there are not good yet. The junior high and high school students all go to school in nearby counties or go directly to the city.

The two of them performed in front of the No. 1 Middle School in the county for half a day, and then went to the No. 1 Junior High School and the No. 1 Primary School in the second half of the day. It happened that these two schools were also next to each other.

It wasn't until the afternoon bus to town was about to leave that the two of them closed the stall.

After two busy days, I can take a break for a while.

When he came back yesterday, Yan Changqing took a nap on his second uncle's back. When he opened his eyes, it was already dark and he had no time to count the harvest - mainly because he was avoiding his family, fearing that their family would know about their 'begging' business.

Don't let them go.

No more fear now.

When they got home in the evening, before they could be complained about being late, Yan Erhe ran home, grabbed his wife and grandma who were holding the child, and carried a wooden box over.

Opening the box, in addition to the neatly organized wad of money, there were also a lot of scattered things inside.

The collected money was earned from the last trip to the oil field. The two of them debated whether to buy a cow or a bicycle. In the end, they didn't buy anything and kept it here.

The scattered ones were earned yesterday.

After taking off the long cloth bag wrapped around his waist, Yan Erhe said in high spirits: "Mom, Dad, brother and sister-in-law, we can buy a cow. This is seven pounds of money earned. We ran out, not just for fun..."

In fact, everyone in the family was shocked. Their first reaction when they saw so much money was that they were either surprised or completely frightened.

Yan Dahai even looked at the closed door, fearing that if he heard a knock on the door, a group of military uniforms would rush in and take Yan Erhe away.

The uncle and nephew talked for a long time, and finally convinced them that the money here was indeed earned purely from performing arts.

After being tortured like this, no one cared about performing arts or begging, they just stared at the money with their eyes shining.

In their impression, they probably thought it was impossible for so many beggars to come.

Buy a cow!

Although the family doesn’t say it, who wouldn’t want to have a cow at home?

Cattle are indispensable in everything from plowing and sowing to pulling carts. Moreover, cows can eat and pull carts, and they can also store fertilizer...

…

So after questioning and questioning, and even forcing a confession from Yan Erhe's whole family, it was finally confirmed that it was just an ordinary entertainer, no cheating, no messing around, and most importantly, no risks, etc., and the rest was full of happiness.

The whole family lit the money excitedly, and Yan Dahai even extravagantly lit three kerosene lamps.

I didn't order more because I only had three at home.

And none of them are authentic kerosene lamps, they are all crude versions made by myself using glass bottles.

After the money was finally counted, everyone except Yan Changqing and Yan Erhe were a little unconvinced.

There was actually a ten-dollar bill inside - in fact, there was the latest version of the hundred-yuan note at this time, but the whole family had never seen it, and they thought ten yuan was still the largest.

Everyone doesn't understand why someone is willing to give ten yuan to listen to the erhu on the street.

Even if Yan Changqing plays Erhu really well, it costs ten yuan!

Yan Erhe explained to them: "When I went to the city, I heard someone saying that the seven-pound pull was good. That person seemed to be a teacher. At that moment, I saw several people giving ten to five yuan...

"

"There were a lot of people there, and the streets were full of people. From the moment we walked in, the people around us were from three floors inside and three floors outside. People there are still rich, and many people ride motorcycles and drive cars.

A small car..."

Yan Changqing also explained: "I am still young. You see there are so many students who send students, and their children are in school. I am younger than them. I play erhu and perform on the street. I want to recruit more sympathetic people and pay more."

It’s also normal.”

This is true. If the family is better, the children who learn well will feel superior. At this time, there is no lack of sympathy; if the children in the family do not learn well, they will get angry just thinking about it. No matter how old the child is, he can play the erhu.

I learned so well, my own...

All in all, it was a pretty good harvest. Just for that trip to the city, I earned four to five hundred yuan, and more than 200 yuan from the county. There was also the 200 yuan from my first trip to the oil field, which was close to a thousand yuan.

.

Buying a working cow, a wish that the whole family did not dare to mention, suddenly turned into a small problem.

…

The whole family got up very early the next day. Yan Changqing didn't finish a set of boxing, so everyone in the family got up.

However, Yan Changqing felt that they must not have slept well. Although they did not have dark circles under their eyes, their faces were obviously dark.

A bad complexion does not mean a bad spirit. Now Yan Dahai is exuding a strong fighting spirit, as if he is going to the battlefield - because he is going to buy cattle today.

Yan Changqing couldn't hold back and told her father: "Dad, we have talked to my uncle before. He said to ask an acquaintance at the veterinary station to help take care of it. When you get there, go to my uncle. Don't buy it yourself!"

Yan Dahai was about to slap him, but his son was so nimble that he ducked out of the way, and for a moment he had a sarcastic look on his face: "I still need you to explain..."

"I think Qijin is right." Grandpa happened to see this scene.

It is true that they are kissing each other a generation apart, and the grandson is only a few years old when he can play the erhu and earn money to buy cattle. Grandpa is still dreaming. Seeing that his son dares to attack his grandson, he is going to rebel!

Yan Changqing was too embarrassed to look at his father's embarrassment, so he smiled and picked up the stick to go to the side to practice.

During the meal, Yan Changqing was rewarded with two eggs. This was a treat only for his birthday - his family was not in good condition, so he had two eggs every year on his birthday.

Yan Changqing was not polite and ate both eggs.

After struggling for two days, he felt that he needed to take a supplement. Moreover, the whole family looked at him, and his stomach was filled with happiness. They watched him finish two eggs, and they felt happy all over.

After dinner, Yan Erhe also came. Buying cattle was a big deal, and both Yan Dahai and his grandfather were going.

Yan Changqing doesn't want to go, since he can't tell whether the cow is good or bad anyway. Professional things should be done by professional people.

…

After the people who went to buy cattle left, Yan Changqing was ready to go out for a walk.

She really couldn't stand her mother's gaze. She looked at her son as if he were a rare treasure. She stopped doing any work at home and just sat there looking at her son.

He just watched, but was always ready. When he saw Yan Changqing washing his hands after feeding the chickens, he quickly handed over a towel: "Son, towel."

Seeing Yan Changqing preparing to play the erhu, he quickly poured a glass of water into the only big enamel teacup in the house and put it next to him: "Son, if you are thirsty, drink..."

Then he sat next to him and stared at his son blankly.

No one can stand this look.

When you want to go out, you have to follow behind and explain: "Walk slowly, don't run, pay attention... By the way, Erwa and the others have been looking for you these days..."

I have never seen my mother look like this before!

Oh, by the way, I used to be a naughty child at home, the kind who would tear up the house if I didn’t get beaten for three days... That’s okay!

…

I was complaining in my heart, and wandered to Erwa's house, but there was no one there.

Then go to Tiedan’s house.

I turned a corner and saw Tiedan's house.

I felt it was quite lively before I walked in. When I opened the door and went in, I saw Erwa and Tiedan arrogantly directing four or five naughty children to make people line up!

Yan Changqing was stunned: "Er baby, what are you doing?"

When Erwa saw Yan Changqing, she immediately ran over happily: "Brother Qijin, they all want to learn martial arts from you. You haven't been at home these two days, so we practiced here."

Tiedan also ran over: "Yes, we are going to line up to go to your house. From now on, we will become your disciple and learn martial arts from you..."

Yan Changqing was dumbfounded: "What do you mean by worshiping me as your teacher? Speak slowly. What's going on?"
