Chapter 43: The Cannon Fodder Brother in the Chronicle

"Wow! Woo-"

"Wow! Woo!"

After leaving the yard, the child's crying became more and more obvious.

"It's okay, it doesn't bite! Just stand still."

You can still vaguely hear the voices of other children, but what everyone responded to was the sound of the child crying more and more loudly. Listening to the sound, You can feel the child's fear.

"It's really Xiao Duoyue's cry. Has Xing Lin come back?"

"Run faster, can't you hear the child crying?" Grandma Pei's voice was a little anxious. Even with her little feet, she was running very fast behind.

"Where's Xinglin?"

As they were talking, they heard the door next to them ring.

"Brother! Wow-"

"Get out!" They heard Pei Xinglin's furious voice.

Pei Xinglin went out, and when everyone else went out, they found Pei Xinglin holding the child and wiping his tears.

"What's going on? Why is the child crying?"

"Yes, why is Xiao Duoyue crying?" "

Is there a dog?"

"Duoyue was chased by a dog, so he cried." The person next to them answered them Three children standing.

"Woooooo-" Pei Duoyue was speechless, her little body was still trembling, and she was now sobbing in her brother's arms.

"Are there dogs in our alley?" Grandma Pei asked.

"I don't know whose family it belongs to. It's a big black dog. When I came out, I saw the dog sniffing next to Xiao Duoyue and grinning. The dog was almost taller than Xiao Duoyue."

"Yes. Ah, that dog likes Duo Yue so much, and has always been by Xiao Duo Yue's side. "Because of Pei Xinglin's name, the child's name for Pei Duo Yue became Xiao Duo Yue.

There are many dogs in the village, and people who are afraid of dogs know not to run when they see a dog. But Xiaoduoyue was really too young. He didn't understand this. He ran away at first, but when everyone asked him to stop, he endured his fear and stopped. As a result, the dog was still beside him. He left and kept sniffing around him, making Xiao Duoyue more and more frightened.

Moreover, people who are afraid of dogs will be afraid of any dog, no matter how small it is, let alone such a big dog that is always by Xiao Duoyue's side.

"Stop crying, stop crying. Next time my brother teaches you the dog beating stick method, those dogs will not dare to come to you." Pei Xinglin changed from squatting to standing, picked up Xiao Duoyue, and took out the dog in the child's pocket. Beautiful handkerchief to wipe his tears.

"Don't cry, don't cry, don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Brother, will you eat a small cake later? Brother bought a cake for Xiaotu, are you happy?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, brother." Xiao Duoyue couldn't calm down at once, That dog is really too big, "Wu-scared-wow..."

"Okay, don't stay outside, go home first." Grandma Pei also stood over and looked at Xiao Duoyue. Wound.

"Grandma Pei, Xiao Duoyue, let's go home first." Erhu and the others looked at Xiao Duoyue being held in Pei Xinglin's arms with some envy.

It's really good. Xiaoduoyue will have small cakes to eat when he goes back in the evening. He also saw the small cakes at the market today. They are pink and look delicious.

Moreover, when Xiao Duoyue cried, his brother didn't scold him. If he cried because of the dog, his mother would definitely scold him.

Pei Xinglin hugged Pei Duoyue and returned to his grandma. At first, he focused all his attention on Pei Duoyue. Only when Xiao Duoyue stopped crying did he feel that the atmosphere at home was wrong.

"Tell me, if you want to do business like Xinglin, you have to be as courageous as someone else! What can you accomplish if you don't care about the future!"

"My family spends money to support your education, you say If you don’t think about it, what can you do with these three minutes of enthusiasm? If you still want to do business, where will your capital come from? Just go out and become a beggar! "

Wait a minute ! After not crying for many months, Pei Yimin was so angry when he saw Pei Hailin acting like a normal person again.

I want to do business, not go to school! This is simply not what a sane person would say, especially since he will take the college entrance examination in the next half year, and he actually said at this juncture that he does not want to go to school and start a business.

Without thinking about what he is made of, he just says he wants to do business. Does he know what he needs to do? Then he suddenly says he wants to do business.

Pei Yimin looked at Pei Hailin, who was shaking his head, and now he forgot that he was still kneeling on the ground just now. He really wanted to hit him hard with a stick, just like that!

"Why can't it be done? Xinglin did a good job, why can't I do it." Pei Hailin was originally teasing Xiao Duoyue, but now after hearing Pei Yimin's words, he was not very happy.

"Are you comparing yourself to Xing Lin? Don't you know what kind of character Xing Lin has and what kind of character you have! Xing Lin gets up at six o'clock every morning, can you? Can you think Xing Lin can tidy up the house by himself? ! Xinglin can clean up all the corn in the field, can you! You see that Xinglin can make money in business, but you don’t see how much Xinglin has to suffer

in the cornfield ! What were you doing? You were sitting in the classroom reading! When Xinglin was basking in the sun, you were still sleeping in the classroom!"

"Can you endure hardship? You see that Xinglin is making money now, why don't you want to? I wonder how much Xinglin suffered! You were sleeping on the kang at home when there was a foot of snow outside. Where is Xinglin? Do you know what Xinglin was doing?"

The more Pei Yimin thought about it, the more he felt that his son was useless. There is no right person who has high ambitions but low ambitions. The most important thing is that he still thinks he is very powerful! You don’t know what you look like if you don’t look in the mirror! If you don't suppress this temper, you will get into trouble sooner or later.

"Starting from tomorrow, you will also get up at six in the morning. If you can't get up, try it!"

Pei Xinglin now knew why his uncle was angry, but he was also shocked by Pei Hailin's sudden idea.

After carrying the little rabbit out, Pei Xinglin also talked to Pei Hailin who was walking next to him.

"Do you really want to do business?"

"A little bit, just watching you doing business suddenly made me think this is quite interesting." Pei Hailin scratched his head and squeezed Xiao Duoyue's paws. The flesh on his palm was really very tender. Fun.

[Blooming Claws JPG.]

"But I think you only have half a year left in high school. It's better to finish this half year and get a diploma."

"I also know that I will definitely not be able to pass the college entrance examination. I will go to school in the second half of my senior year. It doesn't matter if we go or not, as long as we take the final exam, I think it's a waste of time for me to stay in school. I might as well see what I can do."

"Then you really can do something. If you want to do business, you might as well go to my place these days to see if the business is as good as you imagined, and to practice your skills."

Pei Xinglin said to Pei Hailin as he walked to the door.

In the past few days, Pei Xinglin has become more familiar with the vendors around him. He found that he was very lucky. His first business trip went smoothly. Squeeze the goods, so that you can have the capital to do business in the future.

Moreover, he felt that he had been careful on the train, but now he realized that he did not do enough on his own. There were many people who lost things on the train, and he was able to bring back his goods safely after getting off the train. Also lucky. In the middle, if there was only one step left, he would not be what he is now. It turned out that he had not considered many things.

Originally, he was still happy that he had made money, and his mentality seemed to be changing, and he seemed to be proud. But after knowing that some people lost all their belongings, and that some people were deceived, he thought that he had to be more careful. , after all, he is not alone. Moreover, many people don’t know how to do business, but there are too many things to be careful about.

Pei Xinglin hugged Xiao Duoyue, who was already asleep, and looked at the child's sleeping face, and kissed him again.

The child cried for a while and was tired. He didn't eat the small cake he bought. Putting Xiao Duoyue on the kang, Pei Xinglin wiped the sleeping baby's hands and feet, took off his outer clothes, revealing the round cotton jacket and cotton trousers underneath, and then wrapped Xiao Duoyue's whole body in a quilt.

After burning the kang, laying out the quilt, and warming it with a salt water bottle, Pei Xinglin put the little guy in.

After sleeping well, Pei Xinglin held his brother's little hand.

The little guy's skin is actually tender and smooth, but his little hands are a little rough to the touch, and there are small black spots on the back of his hands due to the cold. There is also a small face. Although I apply oil to the child every day, the previous chappedness is still not healed. There are still a little black spots in the triangle area near the bridge of the nose.

However, the child's face is really tender, white, and extremely beautiful. As long as the neckband worn by the child will be sold faster, even the hairpins occasionally clipped to the child's head will be sold quickly.

Thinking of how his brother was frightened by the dog today, he felt a little distressed. Thinking about buying him something delicious tomorrow and kissing his face, Pei Xinglin fell asleep.

--------------

The next day, Pei Xinglin woke up very early, but he felt something was wrong. I habitually touched the child's cheek, only to find that the child's cheek was a little hot and the little face was a little red.

Pei Xinglin was a little anxious. Regardless of the time, he hurriedly put on clothes, wrapped the child in a thick coat, put on a hat and scarf, wrapped a thick coat around the child, and hurried to the doctor in the village.

At this time, the clinic in the village is not open at all, so you can only go directly to the doctor’s home. Fortunately, the doctor's family was already up.

"Did you cry because you were scared of the dog yesterday?"

The doctor Pei Xinglin found was an old doctor three lanes away from his home. When they were children, whenever they felt uncomfortable, the adults in the family would take them to this doctor.

"Well, yesterday evening, I was scared by the dog and cried for a long time." Pei Xinglin touched his brother's cheek and said, "But, he has been following me outside these days."

"Well... "It doesn't matter. If you haven't been sick in the past few days, it means everything is fine. It's just..." The doctor felt the child's pulse again, "Your child has some physical deficiencies and needs to run and jump outside more." Give him some energy to make him happy."

The old doctor looked at the child's tongue and checked his pulse: "I'm scared. I'll give you some medicine to give to the child. It's mainly to reduce the fever. Your child has a congenital defect. " Don't let him see you for the next two days."

"Okay, is there anything else I should pay attention to? Is there anything about my child's congenital shortcomings that needs to be paid attention to?" Pei Xinglin was a little worried when he heard that his brother was in poor health.

"You really feel sorry for your brother." After hearing what Pei Xinglin said, the old doctor looked Pei Xinglin up and down. "It's nothing. This disease requires more attention. The first thing is to feed the child well. If you want to take good care of it, First of all, you should not be reluctant to eat and drink. Give your children more malted milk and milk powder, and let them eat more meat. Also, pay more attention to your children when the seasons change." "Okay, okay

."

Take the pills wrapped in paper into a small triangle and go home with the baby in your arms.

In the yard, Grandma Pei, who was sweeping the yard, saw the appearance of the two people. She couldn't help it and asked, "What's going on?"

"Xiao Duoyue was frightened last night and had a fever this morning."

Pei Xinglin took the child back to the house . , put it on the kang next to grandparents.

In the whole family, only the grandparents' house is the warmest. There are people there all day long. The stove is burning all day long and two meals a day are being cooked. It is the hottest.

"...Xiao Duoyue is born with deficiencies, and his body will be a little weaker." Pei Xinglin covered his brother with a quilt, then took a tea jar, cooled the water, and prepared for his brother to drink medicine later.

"Look, now you know how hard it is to raise a child, not to mention that this little guy is born with poor health. You should pay more attention to such a child." Grandma Pei said this, but she took another one in her hand The quilt covered the child's feet, then he grabbed the child's hand and looked at it, "After the little guy cried yesterday, did he sweat?"

"This..." Pei Xinglin found that he couldn't answer. He knew that his brother's cheeks were dry, but he was not sure whether there was any sweat on his body.

He was afraid that his brother would be cold at night without a quilt, and he would not take off his autumn clothes and long pants at night.

"Look, you're still not careful. Children sweat most easily after crying."

Grandma Pei sat by the kang, scolding Pei Xinglin and looking at Pei Duoyue who was still sleeping.

So good, her eyelashes are so long. She remembered that when Zhao Wanqing was young, her eyelashes were not so long. There is also that little nose, why is it so straight, the little mouth is also red, the eyebrows are dark, the mouth is red, and the skin is white. With these three things, this person is definitely not ugly, he is eye-catching at first glance! Xiao Duoyue's appearance is definitely unique in Bailiang Village. Recently, more than one person has told her that Xiao Duoyue looks good.

Grandma Pei originally didn't like this child, after all, he was not from her Pei family. However, this child was so well-behaved, and he was really kind to Pei Xinglin. She felt that her grandson's support of this child would not be in vain.

"Okay, let me stay here, kid. You and Hailin can go sell your yarn. Didn't you say that Hailin should try it at your place?"

"Milk, don't worry, we haven't had breakfast yet." Pei Xinglin laughed a little when he heard what his grandma said.

"The people from other villages have been here a long time ago, but you are still hanging around at home." Grandma Pei looked at her grandson, and she didn't like it. "How much wool do you still have?"

"You still have more than fifty kilograms left."

" It's okay, I have two pounds left at the end."

"Okay."

It

was almost noon. When he left in the morning, the little guy hadn't woken up yet. Pei Xinglin was a little worried that he would look for him when he woke up. He, and he didn't know if the child's fever was gone now.

"Okay, okay, you're distracted now. If you want to go back, go back and take a look. I'll keep an eye on you." Pei Hailin looked in the direction of home when he saw Pei Xinglin, touched his forehead and said.

It's winter now, and his head is actually covered with sweat. Why did he think doing business was fun at that time? How tiring and boring.

Just those few words, said over and over again, as long as it is a new guest, they have to say it all again. Moreover, even if you explain everything in a good voice, people may not buy it, and there is a high possibility that they will not buy it.

If you don't want to buy it, then don't buy it. Some people are determined to reduce the price. If you insist on buying something that costs eight yuan for two yuan, she will still be angry if you don't sell it.

"Hey, it's only been one morning, and I've already met many customers that I haven't seen in my textbooks." Pei Hailin muttered, holding a messy couplet of hair ties and hairpins in his hand, "You said, if we don't sell it, she will leave. That's it, why are you angry? I didn't say anything harsh to her, I was smiling. Besides, two yuan was not enough for me to buy it, so why was she still angry if I didn't sell it to her? "

"Brother, have you met many such customers recently?" Pei Hailin felt that this kind of business seemed not suitable for him. One morning, he discovered that he himself had a bad temper. Why was he so bad in business? So difficult.

"Much." A lot.

Pei Xinglin put the knitting in order: "Then I'll go back first and take a look before coming out."

"Okay, okay, you can go, there are fewer people anyway." Pei Hailin waved his hand.

Pei Xinglin said goodbye to Pei Hailin and strode home. He was really anxious, the time was really wrong, otherwise, he should have waited for the child to wake up before leaving.

Pei Xinglin went directly to Grandma Pei's house. As soon as he entered the yard, he heard laughter in the house.

"Oh, your little Duoyue is so smart. He can tell so many stories at such a young age."

"Look at my three sons. They are all in school. If you ask them to tell them what the teacher told them, they will tell you so many stories ." I can't tell you."

"Duoyue, tell us another story, about a brave man."

There are adults and children at home.

...

"Why did you come back suddenly? How was Hailin doing at your place? Didn't he cause you trouble?" Grandma Pei asked when she saw Pei Xinglin coming back suddenly.
