After the meal, Wang washed the dishes. He sat on the kang, lit the small oil lamp, and started doing embroidery again. Alu took Dabao to scoop some water into the pot, and then lowered the fire in the stove.

After that, Alu and Dabao also sat on the kang, took out an old book and put it under the oil lamp to read, and Chen Ming taught them. Only the idle Chen Afu was the farthest away from the oil lamp, sitting on a chair and watching those people working and studying.

Originally, Chen Afu wanted to go in the yard to stretch her muscles, but neither Wang nor Chen Dabao wanted to do it, fearing that she would fall.

The book they read was The Thousand-Character Essay, and it was obvious that Chen Alu was not as good at reading it as Chen Dabao. He seemed to be able to carry some big treasures already, but in order to wait for Alu, he still patiently carried them with Alu. It's not that Chen Alu is stupid, but that Chen Dabao is too smart. He was just four years old and what a little genius.

No wonder Chen Ming didn't look like a real farmer, but he was actually literate.

Seeing Wang's slightly narrowed eyes, Chen Afu thought that he should exercise quickly to get her out of her evening embroidery work. If you continue like this, you will become blind in a few years.

Wang's embroidery work is very good, but what she receives are only exquisite handkerchiefs, purses and other small items. The largest one is just a round fan. Perhaps, if you can embroider such an item quickly, you can earn money quickly.

There is also Alu's lame leg. If he fell the day after tomorrow, he must find a way to spend money to find a good doctor to treat it.

While Chen Afu was wandering in his mind, the swallows outside the window started making noise again. There is a swallow's nest under the eaves, and there are two swallows in it. She thought of the swallow in her dream again, and when she thought of the space literature, she suddenly felt a little joyful. She didn't bring space to farm, right? The spiritual creature Little Swallow can't get out of the space, so why don't you just blame her angrily?

The answer can only be found after this body recovers.

Thinking of space and spiritual objects, Chen Afu's spirit was lifted and he had to train his body quickly to seek unknown answers.

She stood up and walked to the Kang table, sat next to Chen Dabao, and read loudly along with Chen Dabao and Chen Alu. In this way, not only do you find a source for how to read words in the future, but you also exercise your throat muscles, mouth, and tongue. However, her broken gong-like voice was mixed with the clear and melodious voices of two young boys, making it seem unusually abrupt.

Not only did the whole family not dislike her, they were extremely happy.

At about Haishi, everyone except Wang, who had to rush to work, had to take a rest.

Chen Afu shamelessly asked the two children to pour her face and foot washing water. She washed her face and feet and took off her clothes. Chen Dabao was so moved that he praised her, Mom, you are so capable. You don't need help from Dabao and my uncle.

However, Xiaoshota helped wipe the feet. Because as soon as she raised her feet, she disobediently fell on the kang and almost kicked Dabao over.

Dabao covered her with a quilt and went out to wash his face and feet before getting on the bed and getting into bed. Chen Afu immediately hugged him into his arms, just like he hugged a pillow in his previous life. However, this little pillow is too thin, not soft at all, and a bit uncomfortable.

Dabao's thin arms also hugged Chen Afu and said, Mother, my son is not playing tricks. He must always be his mother's son. He will be filial to his mother and provide for her in her old age.

At the dinner table, Chen Ming and Wang asked them not to tell anyone about Chen Afu's improvement for the time being. Although the reason was not stated, the sensitive little guy was still overly concerned. He hoped that his mother would recover from her illness, but he was also afraid that if her mother recovered from her illness, his great-grandmother, grandma, and Aunt Aju would drive him away and not allow him to be his mother's son. They, as well as some people in the village, all said that he was a wild child picked up by the Chen family to support a fool in his old age.

Chen Afu comforted him and said, Well, Dabao is mother's son, and no one can change it. Although he spoke slowly, he was still speaking loudly.

After hearing this, the little guy buried his little head in Chen Afu's arms with emotion.

Chen Afu asked again, Grandpa - still know how to read?

Chen Dabao said, That's right. My great-grandmother often said that my grandpa was pregnant with a child in his early years. If he hadn't contracted lung disease, he would definitely have been a civil servant... He then said proudly, Mom, actually I know The Thousand-Character Essay I’m halfway through memorizing it, and I can already memorize all of the Three Character Classic and Hundred Family Surnames, but I can’t recognize all the characters in them, and I can’t write either.”

My son is capable and very good. Chen Affu praised. Children just want to be praised, not to mention that this child is so smart that people and gods are angry. He added, After my mother's illness is cured, I will buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones so that Dabao can go to school.

Chen Dabao was so happy that he got his little head out of her arms, looked at her with wide eyes, and asked, Really? The moonlight through the window lattice fell into his eyes, making his eyes even brighter and brighter.

He completely trusted this silly mother.

Yes. Chen Afu agreed.

Dabao pursed his lips and smiled happily for a while, then said, If mother makes money, she'd better heal my uncle's leg first. My great-grandmother has always said that it's because she has to support the two of us to make a living, that she doesn't have any extra money to give to my uncle. Uncle is seeing a doctor...

The voice became lower and lower, and soon there was the sound of snoring.

Chen Afu also wanted to ask why Alu's legs were lame, but he had already fallen asleep. Ah Fu fell asleep very late. She closed her eyes and thought about something. She also made oral movements, opening and closing her mouth, sticking out her tongue...

After a good night's sleep, Chen Afu was awakened by the sound of chickens and birds the next day. The sky was slightly brighter, and the morning sun shone in through the small window.

Chen Afu turned sideways, but Dabao hadn't woken up yet. This child is so good-looking, with fair skin, thick eyebrows and slanted eyebrows, long closed eyeliner that is raised slightly upward, eyelashes that are long and curly, a straight and straight little nose, thin lips with sharp edges, and a small chin. There is also a small shallow ditch. In modern times, this chin is called beauty groove chin.

He is truly a handsome young man who only comes out once every thousand years. She had watched many movies and TV shows in her previous life, but had never seen such a beautiful child star. From modern times to ancient times, it is a thousand years.

The only drawback is that she is too thin.

From time to time he pouted and murmured. At this time, he looked like a real child. During the day, he was so mature that it was heartbreaking.

Fortunately, the boy wore shabby clothes during the day and his face was dirty, so it didn't stand out so much.

Dabao didn't know what he was dreaming about. He frowned and muttered again, Mother, mother, don't let me go...

Chen Afu sighed slightly. Thinking about it, at such a young age, he knew whether he was picked up or the son of a fool. Even with such a humble status, I am still afraid of losing it, afraid of being kicked out and becoming homeless. Therefore, he wanted to please everyone, especially this silly mother, and he wanted to have a place in this family... Despite the care of Chen Ming and Wang, he still felt that he was surviving in a crack and lived cautiously.
