Chapter 103 Asking for money
Zhou Siyu's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth could not help but evoke slightly, pretending to be unintentional, "Our teacher also said that if you can't study, it's better to drop out of school early to learn a craft."
Being an apprentice in this era is harder than a long-term worker in the local master's family. He has to help cook and take the baby to do housework. When you meet a good master, he will teach you something.
But there are very few good masters, many of them go to other people's gang for three or five years, and they still can't do anything when they come out.
If Shen Mianmian goes, then this life is basically over.
Does this mean that she failed the exam?
kept saying that as long as she did well in the exam, she would be allowed to study, but before the exam, she had already decided that she was not good in the exam, and began to arrange for her to drop out of school.
Although they were all instigated by Zhou Lanfang, if Shen Jianhua really loves her daughter, no matter what the reason, I am afraid that she will be able to study for her!
After all, between her and Zhou Siyu, he still prefers Zhou Siyu.
Thinking that she was so sincere to Shen Jianhua in her previous life, but he didn't tell her the truth until he died, and I couldn't help but feel a pain in my heart.
She closed her eyes slightly, hiding the sadness in her eyes.
"Isn't the final exam yet? Let's wait until the exam results come out!"
Seeing Shen Mianmian's calm expression, Shen Jianhua thought that she had acquiesced in the matter of the apprentice, and she was in a better mood. Anyway, it was always good to listen to her advice.
"Then you and Siyu wash wash and go to bed early! We have to get up early for the exam tomorrow."
"Good auntie." Zhou Siyu said obediently, "You are also working very hard during this time, and you should go to bed earlier."
After saying this, Shen Jianhua felt very comfortable. He smiled and nodded. Seeing that Shen Mianmian was still sitting still, he asked, "What's the matter? Is there something else?"
Shen Mianmian pursed his lips, "Dad, I've been itchy recently. After the exam, I want to go to the bathroom to take a bath."
In this era, technology is not so developed, air pollution is not so serious, the world has not yet experienced warming, winter is particularly cold, and minus seven or eight degrees is the norm.
The countryside is relatively poor, and there is no bathroom. When taking a bath, they get a basin to wash in the house. Men go to the river to wash. In summer and autumn, they are fine. In winter, they can only go to the town's bathhouse. to wash.
The poor family is not willing to go at all. Although there is not much money, it costs a lot of money for a family to go once, so most people may only go once a month.
I don't even wash it until the New Year.
It’s not that you don’t pay attention to hygiene, it’s that you really don’t have that condition at home.
When the conditions in her previous life were better, she liked to be clean. Now that she has not taken a bath for so long, she feels uncomfortable all over, but she has no money on her body, so she does not dare to take a bath in the bathhouse.
I always use a towel to wipe my body. Recently, I always feel itchy on my body. It should be the reason why I haven’t showered for a long time.
As soon as he heard that he wanted money, Zhou Lanfang glared, "It's not New Year's Eve, what kind of bath should I take? If my body is itchy, why not just wipe it with a towel?"
She didn't even call to go to the bathhouse to take a bath. Damn girl, she thought it was beautiful. She must have given her three dollars last time, so that she could taste the sweetness, and she needed money at every turn.
Shen Mianmian ignored Zhou Lanfang, just pursed her lips and looked at Shen Jianhua quietly, she knew that Shen Jianhua eats soft and not hard.
Shen Jianhua came from the famine years. A big man doesn't like to be clean. He thinks taking a bath is a waste of money.
But he also knew that it would be better for the little girl to be clean, and since he had just talked about letting Shen Mianmian go to an apprenticeship, it would not be good to refuse to let her take a bath.
After all, it's only five cents.
"Okay, let your mother take you there when you finish the exam."
