Chapter 238 She can’t be included in the family tree, who is qualified?
Zhou Rong patted Zhou Jiaxing on the shoulder and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Your parents love you very much. They can't always be with you. When you grow up, they will be old. If you learn how to do housework, you can take care of yourself.
Your brother and sister-in-law have their own families to take care of, so they can't take care of you. You can only rely on yourself in the future. You don't want to be despised, right?"
Zhou Jiaxing sighed heavily: "Ah, life is too tiring and boring."
Zhou Rong was worried that Zhou Jiaxing might think wrongly and do something radical, so he comforted him, "Qi Guang was not used to it at first, but later he found that if he got high marks in his studies, he could get rewards and reduce the amount of housework.
So now he likes studying very much. He said he wants to finish middle school, high school and college, so that he can find a good job and not be looked down upon by his family. "
Zhou Jiaxing asked half-doubtfully, "Can studying really reduce the amount of housework? If that's the case, I'll go to senior primary school tomorrow!"
Zhou Jiaxing didn't like studying. After attending a private school for a few years, he just played at home. Zhou Chuanyi wanted him to go to a senior primary school, but he refused to go. When he was forced to go to school, he skipped classes, wandered around outside, or fought with others and caused trouble.
Zhou Chuanyi and Du Juan didn't want to apologize anymore, so they simply locked him up at home and kept an eye on him. This would prevent him from getting into trouble, and they could also teach him how to do housework to calm him down...
Zhou Rong smiled and said, "It's not that studying can reduce the amount of housework, but that getting high scores can get you rewards and reduce a certain amount of housework."
Zhou Jiaxing: "That's not bad! It's better than doing all the housework for the whole family by myself. I'm like a spinning top every day, lighting fires, sweeping the floor, washing clothes, folding clothes, feeding chickens and pigs, and going up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and cut grass for pigs. I don't stop for a moment.
I have decided that I will study hard and get rid of this endless housework!"
Zhou Jiaxing did what he said. He threw down the tongs, ran out to find Zhou Chuanyi, and said that he wanted to go to senior primary school.
Zhou Chuanyi didn't believe Zhou Jiaxing's words. He thought he was making an excuse to avoid working and was about to scold him.
Zhou Rong pulled Zhou Chuanyi aside and quietly explained the conversation between him and Zhou Jiaxing in the kitchen.
"Jiaxing is a smart kid. If he is well guided, he will become a great man in the future. Uncle can set up some tiered reward measures.
For example, what kind of reward will he get if he scores 80 points, what will he get if he scores 90 points or full marks, and what kind of punishment will he receive if he fails the exam, etc., in order to stimulate his motivation to study. "
Zhou Chuanyi pondered for a moment and agreed, "You make sense. It's not a good idea to keep him at home all the time. He needs to go to school and learn more skills. Then he can go to college like you guys. Then we won't have to worry about him in the future, and the Zhou family will have another college student.
But this kid has neglected too many courses, can he catch up?"
Zhou Rong: "There is a talented person in our village. Uncle can ask him to help guide Jiaxing."
Zhou Chuanyi suddenly realized: "You mean Teacher Dong? Yes, how could I forget about him? He can teach college students, so Jiaxing, who is not even a primary school student, must be able to teach him well!"
Zhou Rong half-jokingly said: "Teacher Dong's identity is sensitive. If you ask him to teach Jiaxing, there will be certain risks. If you are randomly labeled by people with bad intentions, you may suffer.
Everything has its pros and cons, you have to think it through carefully. If something goes wrong, don't say it was my fault. I can't bear the blame for this."
Zhou Chuanyi weighed the pros and cons and decided to take a gamble for the sake of his youngest son's future: "I know what's going on and I won't make it public. I'm not bragging, but I can still fully control the current situation in Zhoujiawan."
When this topic came up, Zhou Rong remembered that Dong Huiru and his family lived in Zhou Dewang's house, and asked curiously: "Uncle, where did Uncle Dewang and his family move to?"
Zhou Chuanyi: "I drove them out of Zhoujiawan. I don't know where they live now."
Zhou Rong: "What did they do wrong? So serious?"
Zhou Chuanyi: "If you ignore the laws of the organization and gather villagers to gamble, and don't punish them severely, the young people in the village will become lawless, not doing their jobs, and thinking about gambling every day."
Zhou Rong gave a thumbs up and praised: "Uncle is worthy of being the head of the village. He is selfless and upright!"
Zhou Chuanyi chuckled a few times, thinking, Zhou Chuanwu ordered Rick to kill him, he must prevent him from returning to the village at the root, in order to resolve the crisis...
In the evening, Zhou Chuanyi invited Dong Huiru and Zhang Xiuying to his home for dinner, and also called Zhou Chuanjing to come drink with him.
When inviting Zhou Chuanjing, Zhou Chuanyi quietly told him the identities of Dong Huiru and Zhang Xiuying, as well as his own plans.
Upon hearing that Dong Huiru was a member of the Y faction, Zhou Chuanjing wanted to advise Zhou Chuanyi to stay away from him. However, he later learned that Zhang Xiuying was an expert from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and his words immediately changed.
"Comrade Zhang came at the perfect time. With her guidance, our late rice and vegetables in the fields will surely have a good harvest, and we can also arrange for the grafting of fruit trees.
If Teacher Dong is willing to teach children, he should include my son Tianci. That boy sighs at home every day and imitates us adults to say that life is too difficult and he can't go on. I'm worried that he will get stuck in a dead end.
Teacher Dong teaches college students, so he must have a way to guide Tianci. If he can turn from evil to good, it will be worth it even if I am convicted!"
Zhou Chuanyi: "As long as we cooperate well, the situation will not be bad."
Zhou Chuanjing: "Well, let's not talk about Teacher Dong's Y faction identity for now. When Comrade Zhang helps us increase production and harvest, everyone will benefit. Without us saying anything, everyone will protect them."
Zhou Chuanyi: "I think so too. Comrade Zhang can come to our village thanks to Darong. I plan to have her burn incense for our ancestors in front of the whole village during the morning meeting tomorrow."
Zhou Chuanjing: "Sure, I support it! Let's ask her later if she can come back for the New Year. I want to put her on the family tree."
Like those villages that still follow the old customs, women in Zhoujiawan cannot be included in the family tree of their own clan, but are recorded in the family tree of their husband's clan.
Those who can be included in the genealogy of Zhoujiawan Ancestral Hall are males over the age of 6 in the village, as well as wives who take their husband’s surname.
A daughter-in-law is usually only remembered as her surname, not her given name.
As for the girls in this village, not only those who have already married, but also those who are over 20 years old and unmarried, or even those who have never married in their entire lives, cannot leave a record in the family tree.
Zhou Chuanyi was very surprised by Zhou Chuanjing's suggestion: "Are you sure you want to do this?!"
Zhou Chuanjing said firmly: "Sure! We in Zhoujiawan have always spoken based on merit. What Darong has done for the village is beyond the reach of many other people. You also promised that if the demonstration base is successful, you will engrave her name on the wall of honor.
In less than half a year, under her guidance, the four vegetable stores have achieved stable profits and the villagers have all received money. In the second half of the year, when the chickens, pigs and sheep on the farm can be sold, everyone will get more money.
Now she has brought an expert to the village and solved our big problem. She is so devoted to the children in the village. If she cannot be included in the family tree, who is qualified? ! "
Zhou Chuanyi: "You are right. She can be on the Wall of Honor, so why can't she be included in the family tree? Let's go and talk to her about this, and ask her to bring her children back early to celebrate the New Year."
Zhou Chuanjing: "Okay!"
