Chapter 288： Rats at night

After dinner, Sister Su Anfang helped clean up the kitchen before leaving.

Su Anying bathed and changed the clothes for the four children, and then washed the changed clothes by hand.

Xu Shiyan led the children who had taken a bath to play until they were all sleepy, and the quilts were laid on the bed, and the four children were lined up from small to large, just half of the kang.

"In two years, Xu Haiyuan, you take your younger brother to sleep in the west room, and Ping Ping takes your younger sister to sleep in the west room."

Looking at the children all over the bed, Xu Shiyan felt very satisfied.

How wonderful, when these few grow up and start their own families, and then bring back a few grandchildren and grandchildren, how good is the whole room full of people?

"Dad, I can go to the west room to sleep now, there are rats in the east room, and there will always be noise at night.

But I searched for it during the day, but I couldn't find the mouse hole.

No way, let’s raise a cat. This mouse is too bad. What if it eats our furniture and steals our food? "

Xu Haiyuan was lying on the bed, blinking his big eyes, with a puzzled and worried expression on his face.

"There are mice in our house? Why didn't I know? I didn't hear."

Xu Jinping lay beside her brother with a look of surprise, why didn't she know?

"You sleep like a pig at night, what do you know?"

Xu Haiyuan glanced at his sister, his eyes were full of contempt.

"Dad, it really doesn't work, let's get some rat poison.

I heard people say that zinc phosphide works best. Grab some crickets to remove the shell, pour the medicine into the shell and cover it. They say that the poisonous rat is the best. "

Xu Shiyan almost choked on his own saliva, which made him cough for a long time.

"If you don't sleep at night, it's useless to think about it.

Who told you that zinc phosphide is good for rats? That stuff is poisonous.

The four of you in our family are terribly scavenging, and you can rummage every corner. What if your brother sees and eats it? "

Xu Shiyan finally stopped coughing, and warned Xu Haiyuan seriously.

"When you hear what other people say outside, you are not allowed to poke around, do you understand?

Some things are beyond the capabilities of children as old as you, it is too dangerous. "

Xu Haiyuan has nothing to say about his hands-on ability, and his ideas are right. Xu Shiyan is really worried about this kid, what if he pokes something dangerous?

"Remember in the future, don't play with fire, don't touch electrical appliances, don't touch the sockets, light bulbs, etc. at home.

Those pointed things are not good either, they are easy to pierce.

Then there is the medicine, no matter what kind of medicine, you are not allowed to tamper with it, it is not a joke, if you take the wrong medicine, it will be fatal. "

Xu Shiyan knew that the eldest son could understand what he said, so he warned his son very seriously.

This is really no joke, it's too dangerous.

"My father and mother are too busy to take care of you. You are an older brother. You must protect your younger siblings. Do you understand?"

The eldest son must be responsible for the eldest son. This is the idea Xu Shiyan instilled in his son since he was a child.

Xu Haiyuan can be naughty, he can be as naughty as he likes, but he must remember one thing, protect his younger siblings and not let them get hurt.

"Oh, I see, Dad. I will definitely pay attention to my brothers and sisters in the future."

Xu Haiyuan knew the seriousness of the matter, immediately put on a small face, and nodded solemnly.

"Dad, don't worry, I'm a man and a good helper for Dad. I will definitely be able to complete the task."

Xu Shiyan smiled, and reached out to rub his son's little head.

"Okay, go to bed quickly, you are still young, rest early and grow up quickly, and only when you grow up can you help your parents share more.

The younger brothers and sisters will also grow up, and when they are older, Dad will also tell them. "

Everyone should be responsible for their own safety.

When the child is young, parents are obliged to protect the child, but the concept must be established from an early age, and they cannot wait for something to happen and then regret it.

The two younger ones have already fallen asleep, Xu Jinping is too sleepy to open her eyes, Xu Haiyuan is still a little bit energetic, but obediently closes her eyes and rests.

Xu Shiyan reached out and pulled down the light cord, and the room became dark.

After a while, several children fell asleep, and Xu Shiyan got up and came out of the east room.

"Is there anything left to finish? Let me do it."

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was scrubbing and washing clothes at the door, Xu Shiyan hurried forward to help throw the clothes out and wring out the water.

"Otherwise, let's just buy a washing machine and save trouble." Xu Shiyan said while the two were twisting the clothes.

"It's not very useful to buy that thing. I've seen the washing machine in Jiang's house, and it consumes water, electricity and washing powder.

In fact, I don’t have to worry about going anywhere. I have to add water in and put water out, and I can’t keep up with rubbing it with my hands. "

Su Anying shook her head, thinking that the washing machine is a waste of money and not very useful.

The Jiang family that Su Anying mentioned was the family of the director of the grain depot in Xitou. Both of them had jobs, and they bought a washing machine a while ago.

The neighbors in the neighborhood knew about it, and they all went to his house to watch the excitement, and wanted to see how the washing machine washed clothes.

Su Anying happened to be fine that day, and was dragged by Huang Shengli's wife to take a look, and thought it was actually quite troublesome.

At most, you don’t need to rub it with your hands. Others may not be worry-free, it takes water and electricity.

Xu Shiyan was stunned for a moment before he remembered that the washing machine at this time was semi-automatic, not fully automatic.

"Our house is better. You put the washing machine in the kitchen, and connect the pipe to the water pipe here. The drain pipe just goes into the sewer. It's okay, it's not too troublesome.

Wait for me to ask, is there a double-tub washing machine that can dry clothes, which is good for winter. "

In a previous life, my family bought a Clivia brand single-tub washing machine, but I really didn’t use it much.

Su Anying thinks that the washing machine is troublesome to use, the clothes can't be washed cleanly, and the sheets can be shredded.

Later, the washing machine was left unused and broke, and it seemed that it was sold for dozens of dollars in the end.

"The key is that these four skin children are made like mud monkeys all day long.

We are both busy, you are too tired to go home and wash their clothes after a busy day.

Get a washing machine to save some effort, so I just watch and wash it. "

Xu Shiyan still felt that it was necessary to buy a washing machine.

"Fine, then you can do whatever you want." Xu Shiyan was kind, and Su Anying didn't want to argue with her husband.

Buy it if you want, it’s not like the family can’t afford it.

"By the way, didn't you say that you have something to discuss with me? What's the matter?" Su Anying did not forget what Xu Shiyan said at the dinner table.

"Oh, yes, how about that young man you look at Li Chengrong?"

Xu Shiyan thought of Su Anhua's marriage, so he hurriedly told his wife and asked her opinion.

"Xiao Li, it's pretty good. Every time I come to our house, I'm very polite and gentle. What's the matter?"

Su Anying didn't understand why her husband suddenly asked Li Chengrong what she was doing.

"He took a scarf today and asked me to help deliver flowers." Xu Shiyan stared at his wife to see how she reacted.

"Huh? Xiaoli and Hua'er?" Su Anying looked surprised.

"When did it happen, why didn't I see it at all?"
