Chapter 71: Don’t raise your child to be a naive person
"It's a good thing that they made such a public fuss today." Fan Jin said leisurely, looking at the open space after the crowd dispersed.
Shui Qing understood: "Indeed, our family will not be jealous or cared about."
The two of them were packing their things at home and chatting.
Yan Qiuxing returned and the five people listened in confusion. They followed behind and wanted to ask but did not dare to ask.
Fan Jin looked back and explained in detail to the children following him: "Heizi was raised by a wealthy family. Today his grandma and aunt came with three bags of rice to thank them for saving his life." "No one in the village would have thought that this would be the Bai family in Nandu."
Yan Qiuxing nodded fiercely in response.
There are so many families named Bai, and there are also many wealthy businessmen, but who would believe that the thank-you gift given by Bai Bancheng, the richest man in Southern Capital, was three bags of rice? People in the village would not think that way.
"If they hadn't come in such a big way, and if the people in the village hadn't followed in large numbers to see the fun, I'm afraid that within half a day, three bags of rice would have turned into three bags of gold.
What do you guys think, our family has three bags of gold, how can we not be cared about?
Now they have really seen that it is rice, and we did not even leave these three bags of rice. Not to mention other villagers, your uncle and his family will not miss it. "
The eldest brother's family will laugh at them, be sarcastic, and gloat at their misfortunes, but they will not try to thank them for their gifts.
Fan Jiang moved the small bench and said naively: "I feel that only the eldest mother-in-law cares about our family. Whether it is delicious food, fun things, or good things, she wants them all!
The uncle is okay. He smiles every time he sees us and asks us a few questions with concern. "
Fan Jin touched his son's head and said helplessly: "Silly boy, a man who lets his wife go out to act, make fun of, cry and demand, is the most shameless, and more hateful than that woman."
"Dad, what do you mean by that, the uncle signaled behind the uncle's mother?" Xing Hui immediately asked smartly.
"It's not a hint, it's also a connivance." Fan Jin used to insist on not talking behind people's backs, but now when it comes to educating his children, he deeply agrees with Shui Qing's words, "Children must be taught the skills to make a living and the ability to distinguish right from wrong, and they must not be raised to be stupid and sweet." ’
Although he didn't know what Sha Bai Tian meant, Sha Bai still understood.
Several children must distinguish who is bad and who is evil.
Yan Qiuxing already knew that her uncle was no better than her mother-in-law before, and now she has deepened this understanding.
They looked at their three younger brothers. Their father's words were mainly meant for their children, and they hoped that their younger brothers would understand.
Although Fan Hu was small, he was the first of the three to understand.
Fan He briefly recalled the past and found that every time the auntie came forward to ask for something, the uncle did not stop her. When the auntie was about to arrive, the uncle came out with a few heartbreaking criticisms, showing that there was nothing he could do if the auntie was not good.
Then the uncle also had a share of everything to eat and drink, and the uncle didn't say anything about giving up his share.
The aunt is bad, the uncle is evil!
Fan Jiang didn't understand what he heard. He knew that he was not as smart as his elder sister and younger brother, but he also had his own way, that is, his parents, elder sister and younger brother were both smart people, so he listened to them!
He followed their footsteps.
Fan Jin looked at the children. In the past, he felt that they did not need to know the evil in human nature too early. Now that he thought about it, he was so naive at that time.
The child is already facing evil and does not know how to prevent and avoid it. As a father, he should teach him in advance...
Shui Qing did not reflect on herself. She left the tidying up to her children, went into the house, moved the bed boards, and happily counted the money.
Looking at her savings balance and counting money are her biggest hobbies every day!
Just looking at and counting them makes me happy every day.
Fan Jin was also used to it. He stood beside her and gently plucked off the scraps of grass foam from her hair one by one, trying not to disturb her or hurt her.
He watched the water clear and finished counting. He thought she would put it back again, but he saw her take out five small purses from nowhere.
"Shui Qing, where did you get your wallet?"
Shui Qing was counting the money to see how to distribute it. When he heard the question, he replied without raising his head: "I used to make a lot of fabrics for summer clothes. I sewed a few small cloth bags myself, isn't it good?"
She can't make clothes. After all, clothes in China are cheap and come in many styles. Who girl can make her own clothes?
Many of them couldn't even sew buttons. After all, there were so many clothes in the cabinet that they couldn't even wear them all, so they were thrown away before they were worn out.
She used her childhood skills of sewing sandbags and cross-stitch to sew five small cloth bags. Although the needlework was crooked, you couldn't tell it when you turned it over.
"Don't think it's ugly. I sewed it twice and it's strong! Don't worry, I tried it. The silver will definitely not fall off."
Fan Jin came forward, touched it carefully, and then affirmed seriously: "Yes, it is very strong, but the water is clear. Why do you make so many?"
Shui Qing was in a better mood after being praised seriously, and explained: "The children are older and our family has some money. I think it is appropriate to let them have their own money;
They have free control and can buy what they want to eat, play, and buy. What do you think? "
Fan Jin would naturally not object.
He asked curiously: "How much money are you going to give each of your children?"
Shui Qing hasn't figured out this degree yet.
She raised her head and asked Fan Jin: "So far, our family has sold brushes four times and earned one hundred and sixty-one taels of silver;
He Shouwu earned thirty-eight taels, a total of one hundred and ninety-nine taels. After deducting the money used to buy ox carts, cloth, cotton, iron pots, needles and thread, and other miscellaneous items, we now have one hundred and seventy-seven taels of silver left, and probably a few hundred copper coins.
How much do you think should be given according to the age of the children? "
After saying that, he felt that it was not right. It should not be based on the age of the children, but on the family situation.
It is impossible for the children in the village to get one or two coins. The children of the powerful families wear jewelry worth thousands of gold.
Fan Jin pondered: "Age is only one aspect. Every child has a different temperament. Yan Qiuxing is calm, sensible and not ostentatious. Is three or five taels of silver feasible? Add a few dozen coins, so that people won't stare at him when he goes out to buy some small things.
Jiang Hehu and the other two are not very old. They often play with the children in the village, and it is easy to tell what they are saying. Giving a few dozen coins is good enough. "
Shuiqing: .....Isn't this gap a bit big?
But I have to say that Fan Jin's considerations make sense.
When he had no money, he was afraid that he would be looked down upon by others, so he liked to pretend to be rich. But after he actually had money, he was afraid that others would know that he had money, so he tried his best to hide his money.
She picked out the silver coins and put five silver coins and thirty copper coins in each of Yan Qiuxinghui's small cloth bags.
In the small cloth bags of Jianghehu and the other three, each of them put fifty copper coins.
If there is no silver, give more copper coins.
Then he shouted loudly: "Yan Qiuxinghui, Jianghehu, come in!"
