《[BL] Raising children in Ancient County Town》Chapter 19
Advertisement
After the Lunar New Year's Day, the air was no longer as hot as summer. Qiao Shen added a coat to Xiao Changle, took it off again at noon, and continued to wear it on the way back at night.
On that day, Qiao Shen asked someone from the bookstore to write a job offer and stuck it by the door of Qiao Ji. Someone came that day.
"Shopkeeper Qiao, do you still need to recruit people?" A little brother in a blue plain shirt asked Qiao Shen's request for recruitment, and looked a little nervously waiting for the answer.
Qiao Shen looked at him a little familiar, but couldn't remember it all the time, "Yes, just be diligent, there is no other requirement, and the work is not heavy, just look at the shop and sweep the floor."
Little Yangliu clutched the hem of his clothes, and asked unconfidently: "Then, the shopkeeper, can I do it?"
Looking really young, Qiao Shen asked the next age, "How old are you?"
."It's sixteen. I worked as a helper in the back kitchen of a restaurant. I have been doing it for two years. I can endure hardship and do everything."
Sixteen is a student in modern times. Actually, he has been working for two years. Qiao Shen thought of a modern person and didn't really want to hire. This is child labor, and I can't bear it in my heart.
"What's your name? It's a little bit young." Qiao Shen seemed to be eager for the job, and Qiao Shen couldn't bear it.
"My name is Yangliu, my mother is Yang, and she lives at the end of your alley... I am not young anymore, I have the strength and I can do anything." He also helped his mother give Qiao Shen washed clothes before. It is estimated that the treasurer Joe has forgotten.
"Aunt Yang? You are Xiao Yangliu? Are you not helping in Fumanlou?" Qiao Shen remembered, this man is the younger brother of Aunt Yang's family, but this Fumanlou is a big company, why would he come here? Small shop surface.
."Grandma passed away. I took a few days off. Then I went back. The clerk let my niece take her place. He found a reason... and dismissed me." Don’t look at Fumanlou’s large family business. It’s okay. Yangliu is often the target of bullying in it.
"I'm sorry, so your house is settled? If you need help, just come to my house to find me, but don't be polite, the day will be better if you take your time." Qiao Shen was a little self-blaming and asked. Sad things.
"It's settled, but I owe a lot of money, and lost my job as a helper. As soon as I heard that you are recruiting people, I hurried to ask."
Qiao Shen took Yang Liu and sat down, poured him a glass of water, and said, "That's a coincidence. I don't live a heavy job here. It just takes a longer time. I have to close the shop from morning to night, and then I'll fight."
"It's not long or long, I can, shopkeeper Joe.".Yangliu shook his head hurriedly, mainly because he wanted to find a job. Other shops had to be men, and he was strong enough to endure hardship.
"Just call me Brother Shen, then you can come tomorrow, come to my house tomorrow morning, let's bring some things to open the shop." Qiao Shen said, and looked at Yangliu again.
The clothes were a bit old, but he was a clean and comfortable child. He was a little bit smaller, and there was nothing to do in the shops on the left and right, so Qiao Shen accepted Xiao Yangliu.

"You are in Fumanlou, how much do they give you for a month?"
Yang Liu looked at the kind Qiao Shen and reported honestly: "You can get three hundred wen a month."
Qiao thought deeply about it: "I'll give you three hundred and fifty essays a month here. Do it first, and I'll add it to you later."
Yang Liu looked at Qiao Shen in surprise, "Thank you Joe..., thank you Brother Shen, I will do it well."
.The shop’s help was settled.
Early the next morning, Qiao Shen got up late and was washing his face. Qi Shuo was cooking porridge in the stove and Yang Liu knocked on the door.
"So early? Have you eaten in the morning? Come in." Qiao Shen led Xiao Yangliu into the house. The weather was getting colder and he would not eat in the yard long ago.
Xiao Yangliu didn't dare to go into the house. After all, it was the boss's house. "Is it early? Is there anything I can do for Brother Shen? If not, I'll just wait in the yard."
"It's not early or late, I mean you've gone to bed well, it's not that you are too early. It's nothing, come in quickly, have breakfast together, and go to shop." Qiao Shen can say on a modern campus It is the little communicative prince. For some people who are naturally more sensitive and inferior, he can immediately notice and adjust his words.
.Xiao Yangliu said no in a busy streak, cramped and didn't know what to do. He was afraid that they were just polite. If he agreed, he would only make people feel disgusted.
"Sit down and eat, I will hug Xiao Changle, but I don't care about you so much. If you are obedient, it will save me trouble." Qiao Shen said with a smile, and went to the back room to give Yangliu some space.
The four of them sat down and slowly drank the porridge with some homemade kimchi. Xiao Changle looked at the extra willow curiously, walked over and put his little hand on his lap, and wanted to take a closer look.
"Chang Le, don't scare Brother Yang Liu, you come over and have a good meal." Qiao Shen called Xiao Changle while peeling eggs for Xiao Changle.
"Brother? Hulk? Hulk...hahaha... hug~" Xiao Changle thought of the cry of some kind of poultry, and laughed funny.
.He has a lovely appearance, and he often lingers in Qiao Ji's lo-mei. The diners love to tease him. Under Qiao Shen's eyelids, he is also safe to be hugged and not disturbed.
Qiao Shen never resisted the kindness of outsiders to his son, and let the baby grow up in a loving environment. He didn't think there was anything wrong with him. Of course, he often educates his children to be careful of bad people and identify those with ulterior motives.
Yangliu paused, feeling a little overwhelmed.
"Well, it's brother, then you let your brother hug you."
Yang Liu glanced at Qiao Shen and saw that he was smiling, not seeming to mind, so he reached out and put Xiao Changle on his lap.
"Brother also hugged him, so do you have to eat obediently? Your favorite egg yolk, dad will peel it off for you."
Xiao Changle sat on Yangliu's lap, Yangliu didn't dare to move, for fear that it would make the little master unhappy. .Fortunately, Xiao Changle was fresh for a while, then climbed down and sat back.
After the meal, Qiao pushed the car with two buckets of lo-mei, led Xiao Changle, and Yang Liu also took a bucket and went to open the shop together.

There are more people in the store, and Qiao Shen feels a lot more relaxed. If something happens, tell Yang Liu to look at the store, so he can go to other things. Sometimes Xiao Changle can’t stay in the store and he always wants to run out. Take the child out for a stroll.
Yangliu speaks few words, a typical inferiority complex and flattering personality. There is no man in the family. He has been bullied and looked down upon since he was a child. Even his mother has to look at the face of people when washing clothes. The environment causes him to particularly long for others to treat him well. Desperately to please people he feels a little kind to him.
"Yangliu, rest for a while, you just wiped it this morning, it's clean, you honest child.".Qiao Shen couldn't stop him. He kept watching him. As soon as the plates were collected, he went to the backyard and cleaned them. The table was wiped countless times.
"It's okay, I won't wipe it here after wiping, it's easy."
Qiao Shen didn't stop, there must be a process of slowly changing. In the beginning, you told him to do nothing, but he was uncomfortable.
Today, there is still a lot of Laji Claypot Rice, but the lo-mei is sold out. It was still light in the evening, and Qiao Shen simply closed the shop.
"Yangliu, this meal has been cooked a bit more in the afternoon, and it is still fresh. If you don't dislike it, you can take it back for dinner." Qiao Shen was worried, Xiao Changle was tired of cooking rice, even Qi Shuo, today When he went to deliver the food, he couldn't eat anymore.
"This... the shopkeeper, I don't need..." In fact, Yang Liu wanted to eat it. At noon, Qiao Shen served him a bowl, which was delicious.
.This is for selling, and they are all polished rice. No one else can eat rice, so he doesn't dare to expect it.
"Hurry up and pretend to take it home. How many times have I told you, just call Shen Ge." Qiao Shen was busy counting the money, "Don't let Shen Ge say one thing three times. If you are not obedient, Shen Ge will be angry. ."
At the age of sixteen, he was still a high school student in modern times, but Yang Liu began to share the difficulties of the family early. After thinking about it, Qiao felt that this child was pitiful, and he could not help but take care of him.
Yangliu hurried to install it, and Qiao Shen handed him the food box, "Let's take it back together. You can bring it back tomorrow morning."
The food box was filled with two large bowls of steamed chicken rice. At Qiao Shen's instructions, Yang Liu finished his day's work. Yang Liu suppressed the joy in his heart and hurried home.
It's getting colder.
.Today, Qiao Shen came together, and the yard was covered with a thin layer of snow like reed flowers. It snowed silently, and he held Xiao Changle in Qi Shuo's arms last night, but he didn't feel how cold it was.
After Xiao Changle woke up, he ran to the yard to look for snow treads. He was tightly wrapped in a big red cloth jacket by Qiao Shen. He was like a fairy boy in a New Year painting.
People in the town also wore big cotton-padded jackets. It was only the first cold in the first snow, and I didn't know how cold it would be later.
In the evening, Xiao Changle coughed, Qiao Shen's heart tightened. Ancient medicine was not developed, and most of the incentives for children to die prematurely were colds and fevers.
After the meal, Xiao Changle was poured into a bowl of ginger soup by his father, and fell asleep when he lay down. Qiao was deeply worried and couldn't sleep well.
.Joe woke up in a daze. He didn't fall asleep for a while, preoccupied with things and couldn't sleep deeply.
He touched Xiao Changle and carefully touched his feet from the head. He sat up quickly. Why did he feel that Xiao Changle's feet were a little cold?
"Brother Shuo, are Xiao Changle's feet a little cold, touch it..." Qiao pushed forward Qi Shuo who was sleeping outside.
Qi Shuo woke up and touched it with his big hands. He didn't feel cold. He knew the cough that Chang Le had made since childhood. Qiao Shen was uneasy all night. He also saw in his eyes that Qiao Er was anxious.
"Would you like to hug the doctor, or invite a doctor to come and see?" Qiao Shen was a little nervous.
"No, I don't feel cold to the touch, I hold it, you can rest assured to sleep." Qi Shuo hugged Xiao Changle's feet in his arms, and Xiao Changle's white tender feet stepped on his father's abdominal muscles, unconsciously Kicked slightly.
.When he woke up the next day, Xiao Changle was alive and kicking, and Qiao Shen was relieved. But since then, Xiao Changle has a quirk.
Every night he sleeps with his little feet next to other people’s flesh. Sometimes when Qi Shuo wakes up, he sees Xiao Changle cocked his feet with his back to him, unconsciously kicking his calves, and using his feet to open his clothes. Until his feet pressed against his stomach, he even sighed comfortably in his sleep.
Qi Shuo couldn't help but want to laugh. The older one likes to touch his abdominal muscles with his hands, and the younger one likes to touch his abdominal muscles with his feet. They are really two fathers and sons.
But whenever Xiao Changle is next to him, he can sleep peacefully, and both husbands will follow him.
Winter is getting colder day by day, and Qiao Shen has spent the first winter without heating. The cold is really unbearable. .Fortunately, Qi Shuo was warm in his arms, but he couldn't grow himself on Qi Shuo as a Siamese baby.
So he wanted to rebuild the yard and build a kang to prepare for the coming year. This winter has already come and it is not easy to start construction.
Qiao Shen is drawing interior design drawings again. To rebuild the yard, he plans to add some modern and convenient decorations that he can do.
In addition to the Kang accident, he also wanted to build a shower room in the yard and a room for Xiao Changle. When he was older, he moved to sleep. When he thought of any idea, he took charcoal to draw up, but the manuscript was not drawn. Less Zhang.
As a carpenter, Qi Shuo was very interested in these things. From time to time, he leaned by Qiao Shen's side and asked about Qiao Shen's design ideas. After listening to Qiao Shen's words, Qi Shuo gave Qi Shuo a lot of ideas.
"Model room? What kind of room is it?" Qi Shuo asked with curiosity when Qiao Shen said these three words.
."It means that the furniture is complete and well-arranged. Guests can see at a glance, and as soon as they walk in, they can feel the life after living in." Qiao Shen couldn't explain for a while, and said: "I drew this picture, just in I will show you the simulated model house. The three words "model house" are not the main point."
"There is this kind of room? What if I don't like it when I go in?"
"They are all arranged according to the design and matching. Some people don't like it. Then wait for someone who likes it. Anyway, the arrangement will be there and it will not be broken."
After the conversation that day, Qiao Shen discovered that Qi Shuo was also drawing some pictures from time to time, and Qiao Shen didn't care about it. Papyrus was not expensive anyway, so the paintings were not expensive.
Qiao Shen and Yang Liu greeted him, and took Xiao Changle with the food box to deliver food to Qi Shuo. Qiao Shen discovered that Qi Shuo's workload has been getting heavier recently. If he didn't stare at him personally, Qi Shuo simply didn't eat lunch.
."You took an interior decoration job? I made a bed? A big list?" Qiao Shen looked at the backyard of the carpenter's shop, which was full of furniture, and asked Qi Shuo curiously.
After spending half a year together, Qiao Shen's words might sound strange to others, but Qi Shuo understood it a long time ago. Qiao Shen said that this is modern. Qi Shuo swallowed his food and said, "Forget it, I plan to rearrange the workshop. ."
"Well, look at it." Qiao Shen couldn't understand carpentry work and couldn't help out, but he would support Qi Shuo mentally.
Qiao Shen could tell that Qi Shuo really likes to make these, ranging from small handmade toys to wooden furniture.
After that, Qi Shuo was busy making wooden furniture at home, and Qiao Shen also sympathized with him, took his son by himself, and began to enlighten him.
