[Red Mansions] The big maid struggles daily

When Xiren heard about it, he was sure of it, and said, "Second Master went back and muttered about sending Miss Lin a letter..."

Mrs. Wang frowned, but didn't react for a while.The Wang family is no better than the Jia family. Although they are all promoted by military exploits, the Jia family has already moved closer to reading and writing. The Wang family is still the same as the martial arts family, so the education for girls is inevitably rough.The daughters of the Wang family, from Mrs. Wang to Aunt Xue to Sister Feng, all have little ink in their bellies.

I heard that this is what Mrs. Wang said, but Mrs. Wang didn't take it seriously: "Maybe he read some books again, it's just a kid's stuff, and it will be forgotten in two days." Baoyu is used to messing around. He gave himself an alias called "Jiangdong Flower Master", and his sisters must call him by his alias...

"I didn't care about it at first, but I suddenly remembered that this watch word is a bit different from others. Let's not talk about it for the time being, these girls, there is a saying of 'choose the word when Xu gets married'... The temperament of the second master, the wife is He knows best. He didn’t mean it at first, but let someone with a heart hear it. The villain didn’t care about 21. He caught it and said it was broken. Let the master know if there is any broken words..." Xiren hurriedly Say what you have been thinking all the way.

Mrs. Wang was startled when she heard this, and then she remembered what happened, and hurriedly said: "What you said today reminded me, it's hard for you to have this insight." The old lady murmured about how Uncle Lin had chosen her characters, which would make other people's teeth sore.

Xiren was still worried, and he didn't put it away until Caiyun came back.

Mrs. Wang thought for a while, then said: "Forget it, go ahead, I have my own reasons."

The attacker agreed, took the sash, and when he was about to leave, Mrs. Wang called again: "Stand, I will tell you in vain: You are a careful and thoughtful person, so you have to take care of Baoyu for me. Baoyu is ready. The old lady and I I just like it." He also asked Caiyun to reward her with two strings of money, and asked her mother-in-law to take her back home.

As soon as Xiren left the Rongxi Hall, his heart started beating violently.She knew that from now on, she was the only person in Madam's eyes.

When I went back to the upper courtyard, I had already heard nothing. In Baoyu's room, the girl from last night was dozing and staggering.Qingwen felt light on the small couch, and when she heard the sound, she opened her eyes impatiently and said, "It's the middle of the night, what are you messing around with, do you want to let people live in peace for a while!"

The attacker smiled and didn't care about it. Instead, he said, "Go to sleep, girl. I'll watch over you."

When Qingwen heard this, her heart was blocked.She was supposed to be on duty tonight, but she didn't know what to do and disappeared for a while, and then came back to refill the hardworking money.In the dead of night, I didn't dare to say more, for fear of disturbing Baoyu, Qingwen was so angry that she tossed and turned for a long time before she barely fell asleep.

In the backyard, Zhu Xiu couldn't sleep with her eyes open. There were so many things in the daily scriptures today.It wasn't until I came back to my room and took a closer look at it with peace of mind that I realized that the system in my mind was amazing.

"The merit is detected, the system is finally upgraded", "The upgrade energy is insufficient, the recovery enhancement function, the identification function...", "The upgrade is complete. Reminder: It is difficult to obtain merit, and the utility is infinite, please explore by yourself."

Zhu Xiu cursed in her heart, what kind of upgrade is this!For a while, force yourself to calm down first.

Zhu Xiu thought about it, and suddenly felt that she was too greedy. Before meeting Jia Baoyu in her previous life and this life, wasn't this thing in her head just a decoration.Although the system has taken back those functions, I still have better hearing and eyesight than others, and the most useful emerald pouch is still hanging around her neck; besides, in this era, in her inner house, those functions are not very useful to be honest. Less convenience, what has been learned but not forgotten, can't it be made up for by oneself?

Most of the tricks in the back house still fall on people's hearts.As a result, those methods rarely use real swords and guns to conspire, and even if they are drugged, medicine is not their old profession, and they can be seen.

Zhu Xiu's reflection felt that the lost functions were nothing.At this time, I have to think carefully about this "merit". Buddhism has a saying of cultivating merit. To put it bluntly, it is a good deed. with.

She suddenly remembered that all these changes happened when she saw Lin Daiyu. Does this mean that Daiyu has merits, or can she gain merits from her?Thinking of Daiyu, I naturally thought of those monks, priests and ghosts, and had a flash of inspiration. Could it be that she is really a decent fairy?

Thinking of this level, Zhu Xiu felt more and more right: Originally, although the original functions of the system were strange, they were far from the level of mystery and mystery; When I arrived at Daiyu, I suddenly came out with this - when Zhuxiu was reading a book, I felt that the crimson bead had been pitted miserably: a fairy grass beside the Ling River was watered inexplicably, and owed the favor of irrigation; Then I ate 'honey green fruit' and 'water of sorrow', making me sad, and I was led by Jing Huan to repay my favor... It was originally a free fairy grass, but after a circle, it became a debt of gratitude and tears Going there, not to mention the misery of his life, even after dying from tears, he will be in charge of Jing Huan's subordinates when he returns.No matter how I think about it, I feel that crimson bead grass has been deceived miserably.

If you say that, Jing Huan and others are wild immortals and crooked ways, then it makes sense for them to get good girls into the Bo Ming Division instead of being kind.

Besides, whether it was when she was not doing anything well in the past, or after she was alienated later, in these two lifetimes, the system has always been good to her.Now that this kind of merit has appeared, the merit will definitely be useful to him... Zhu Xiu's head hurts from thinking about it, so he simply put aside these guesses and waited for verification.

After all, he was sleepy, and Zhu Xiu couldn't fall asleep, so he got up to do needlework.When the sky was slightly bright, Zhu Xiu finished a kang screen, put down the needle and thread in his hand, and was suddenly a little dazed: in the past, it took at least two days to embroider such a large one, but now it is more than twice as fast!Let people know like this, wouldn't it be shocking, even a skilled embroiderer would take seven or eight days to do this.

Zhu Xiu thinks about it, is this after recycling and strengthening, the system has implemented what it has already obtained.

Thinking of this, Zhu Xiu put away the embroidery, picked up the big copper pot, and was going to the tea room to ask for some hot water.As soon as Fang opened the door, the door of Hu Po's room on the opposite side also opened with a creak. Zhu Xiu raised his face and smiled, but was startled by the oily shine on Hu Po's face and the obvious pores.

Hu Poben yawned. Seeing her like this, she was annoyed: "Damn you! It's all about the story you told yesterday. I was so uncomfortable that I didn't fall asleep half the night, and you still acted strangely to tease me!"

Zhu Xiu was startled in her heart, she used to see far away, but she couldn't even see the fine hairs on her face like now, when she saw it suddenly, her face was confiscated, and she made a toothache expression.

"Your eyes are red. Come on, go back to the house, wait for me to fetch water, let's wash together..."

Amber touched her eyes, they were very swollen.The little girl of this age, and she loves beauty, hurriedly went back to her room to look in the mirror.

After clearing themselves up, Zhu Xiu and Hu Po went to the room together, and everyone they met said that Hu Po "did you become a thief last night? Eyeballs are like rabbit eyes", Hu Po was annoyed, but it was true Zhu Xiu, who stayed up all night, did not show any signs of energy.

-

Jia Baoyu just got up and had breakfast with Jia Mu when she was called away by Mrs. Wang.Xiangyun was angry all night, and didn't wait for Baoyu to come to apologize and coax her carefully. After eating, even the figure disappeared, and he couldn't help being deeply annoyed.

When Mrs. Wang saw Baoyu, she caressed Baoyu first, and then asked Baoyu, who had rolled into her arms, to sit down and talk.

"Your husband went home a few years ago, and someone sent a letter the other day, saying that there was a delay at home, and he couldn't come up this year..."

Before Jia Baoyu finished speaking, he smiled and said: "Mister's family affairs are important, and my sisters and I can study together. Besides, my wife knows it. Sister Bao knows everything about it. If there is anything I don't understand, I can just ask her for advice." Li said this, but he said in his heart: I don't know if Sister Lin can also be good at poetry.

Mrs. Wang tapped his forehead, and said: "It's serious for you to read books and do some homework. If you are naughty, be careful and tell you that I will beat you!"

Jia Baoyu refused to obey her like twisted candy, Mrs. Wang was so entangled that she couldn't help it, and she said after a while, "Your sister from the Lin family is keeping filial piety for your aunt. Her family has strict rules, and you are not allowed to disturb her! Let me know." , tell your master immediately, the master only has this niece, see if he beats you!"

When Jia Baoyu heard about it, he immediately raised his head and said, "Ma'am, what you said is really unreasonable. My aunt has gone, and sister Lin is hurting, and I can help resolve it when I go. The whole family is troubled. Besides, Did my wife see it yesterday, this younger sister also has a piece of jade..."

Mrs. Wang put her face down when she said it, and she couldn't bear to lose her temper with her son in the end. She endured it and said: "Don't mention this in the future! Her jade is an old palace item, and it has nothing to do with yours! Anyway, be obedient and don't disturb it. If not, I will tell you right away, I will move you to study in the front yard! Usually, your big brother Zhu is as old as you, and he would go out early. If you tell the old lady this, the old lady will be willing to come. ..." Coaxing and intimidating, he was bluffed.

When Jia Baoyu heard that Mrs. Wang was going to move him to the front yard, he would not be able to be with his sisters in the future. Instead, he would only learn about official career and economics, and his face turned pale.He had no choice but to promise quickly not to disturb Daiyu.

When he returned to his own room, he was still sleepy and unhappy, and he didn't go to play with his sister. He just fell on his back on the bed and complained: "...It's my bad luck, I finally got a fairy-like sister, You can't get close." It was very embarrassing.

Xiren understood what he meant, and knew that his wife had started it, but he still pretended not to understand, sat on the edge of the bed, and persuaded him: "You are confused again, Miss Lin is a filial person, and she can't even do fun and banquets. , what’s the fun in being in one place.”

Seeing that he was still bored, he hurriedly said: "You just have to be more disciplined this year. It will be fine when she becomes a filial piety next year. At that time, the sisters will have nothing to say. Besides, although the old lady does not call Miss Lin pays her respects in the morning and evening, but why doesn't Miss Lin come to see the old lady, who told you to avoid her when she comes?"

This made Jia Baoyu happy again. When Xiren saw this, he immediately said, "Just don't mention the matter of sending characters and names! And that jade!" Without waiting for Baoyu's rebuttal, he hurriedly said again: " Miss Yun and Miss Bao have been here for a long time, but you haven't sent any letters, let them know, Xu De thought: We have grown up with children, and we can't compare with the sisters who just came? Besides, which big lady Miss Yun and Miss Bao don’t have any jade or emerald, but they just don’t like to wear them for a while. When Miss Bao came, you had a fit, and Miss Bao was magnanimous and didn’t care about it, but what about Miss Lin. Be careful, if she annoys you, it's even more boring!"

Jia Baoyu first said "Sister Bao and Sister Yun are not that kind of people", and after hearing that, she also felt reasonable.Seeing Xiren's sincere words, he was full of concern for him, so he couldn't help laughing: "The ancients said, 'Yunjieyouqinghuajieyu', but I have a 'Jieyuhua'."

Xiren didn't understand these rhetoric very well, but he could hear that Baoyu was teasing her, and couldn't help blushing, Jia Baoyu was stunned by his shy appearance.

Qingwen and Sheyue came in chatting and laughing, and interrupted their staring. Qingwen smiled and said, "Oh, what's the matter? The two of you just looked at each other stupidly and didn't speak, making us think that there was no one in the room." Woolen cloth……"

Zhu Xiu pricked up his ears, knowing that the verse was over, so he ignored the verbal lawsuits of the girls in the room, and went to Meishouyuan by himself.

Seeing that it was her, the old woman who guarded the door of Meishouyuan stepped aside and said with a smile: "Miss Xiu, come in quickly, the young master has ordered you early in the morning, the girl is from my own family, so you don't need to report in the future."

Zhu Xiu smiled and said, "Thank you mom, you are busy."

There are three main rooms in Meishouyuan, and two side rooms on each side. This is Daiyu's residence, which is very spacious.The corridor in the backyard is winding, separated by a small garden made of flower trellises, plants, rockery and strange rocks. From the corridor, there are five Qingxia buildings connected with rolling sheds, and behind it is the sika bamboo forest.On both sides of the main house, there are more than twenty houses in the east and west wing rooms, and there is also a row of inverted houses near the gate.In the courtyard, there are pink walls and black tiles, and there are koi carps in a huge peace tank. The most wonderful thing is that several branches of crabapple trees cover half of the yard. Because no one picks those crabapple fruits, the branches are now covered with small red crabapples. The fruit is really beautiful.

Walking to the front of the main hall, just in time for the woman on duty to change shifts, Guiyue watched from the side, and said: "There is ginger and jujube soup boiled on the tea stove, everyone drinks a bowl to drive away the cold."

Seeing Zhu Xiu coming over, she rushed to pull her into the house to warm up. Zhu Xiu pointed to the standing mother-in-law. Gui Yue smiled and said: "Although spring has begun, it is still freezing cold after standing outside for a long time. They guard the door with all their hearts and responsibilities. , the girl is also considerate. I specially called a one-hour rotation, and those who are replaced can rest for an hour, and can drink hot soup to keep warm." There are many people brought, but two shifts are enough.

Zhu Xiu thought of the second door of Rongfu, which was in vain, even though Xifeng was as powerful, those doorkeepers were still lazy, cheating, drinking and gambling, relying on their old qualifications.

When he entered the living room, a warm fragrance came over his face, and Zhu Xiu knew it was Huang Taishi's halal fragrance made by himself as soon as he smelled it.This fragrance is originally intended to nourish the mind and calm the mind. Zhu Xiu adjusted the fragrance, adding some Sichuan pepper, cooked mugwort, and grass, which also has the effect of preventing and disinfecting the plague.This house can't be lived for a long time, so it's best to use this incense.

Grandma Zhu was in the living room. When she saw Zhu Xiu coming, she quickly raised her fingers and gave a "hush" sound. After holding Zhu Xiu beside her and sitting down, she whispered, "I'm copying scriptures inside. Don't disturb her. Let me take it easy." This oven of incense cakes is finished."

Zhu Xiu smiled and said: "This fragrance is not among the taboos, why is Mu Ma acting like a thief."

Grandma Zhu pinched her daughter's earlobe, and said angrily, "Naughty again!" Touching the bun on her head affectionately, she said sadly: "Our girl is really embarrassing for me, her body is not strong, I'm just afraid that she will I'm sick again." He pointed to the house, and said: "Although this house has been tidied up, it's not popular for a house that can't last long. Poor families pay attention to fumigation with moxa, and the one you gave me is just right for use."

Zhu Xiuyin asked: "Is it the girl who refuses to let me?"

Zhu Nanny shook her head and said: "Our girl is a kind person. Although she herself is like a penance, she doesn't force others to do so."

Zhu Xiu understood, mother avoids Daiyu's house, so she is considerate of her filial piety.

After the cake was smoked, Madam Zhu lit three more sticks of bamboo sticks for worshiping the Buddha, and enshrined them in the copper censer on the big red sandalwood table with ten deer patterns in the main hall.

Zhu Xiu also cared about Daiyu's body, "The girl doesn't touch any fishy meat, she doesn't eat eggs and milk, and she tosses and turns in the big kitchen like that. If this continues, she must suffer." Zhu Nanny also said: "I'm going to be with you Discussing this. The doctor I brought here is in the Lin family's mansion. Mother Chen said yesterday that she sent someone to ask the girl for a pulse, but the girl refused. I was thinking about food supplements rather than medicine. I'm used to thinking about this, tell me?"

There are also vegetarians in modern times, and Zhu Xiu knows some: "The most taboo thing is to eat the same meal all the time. Each meal has more types, such as eight-treasure rice, tofu, brown sugar, vegetables and fruits, and sea vegetables. I always have walnuts and peanuts. This kind of hard fruit is used as a snack for the girl. From time to time, I will make some medicinal food to supplement it, and it will be fine if I think about it.”

He also told her mother: "Every day I bring water in a bamboo tube, and ask someone to cook porridge on the tea stove with a silver sling. The taste is better than that sent by the kitchen."

Grandma Zhu laughed: "The water is rainwater? You sent someone to bring it in the morning, and we have already used it. Both the girl and Grandma Chen praised it."

Zhu Xiu was also full of curiosity about this Nanny Chen who hadn't met yet, but taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else, she told her about the word selection first.

Nanny Zhu knew her daughter's ability, so her face was full of frost after hearing it, and she said coldly: "Thanks to your good ears, otherwise, it would be a bad thing to ask him to say it in front of your face. But our girl has to take shelter here now, otherwise If you move out early, you can get clean."

He also said Xiren, "This girl is a caring person. Sooner or later in the second master Bao's house, let her have the final say. It's just that she looks ordinary, and I'm afraid she won't be able to convince people who are motivated. Just wait, and the other end will be more in the future." Don't stop. Let's pay attention, so as not to be called to come up, step on the shit, and feel sick and panic when nothing happens."

Zhu Xiu gave a thumbs up, admiring it.Mama's foresight is very correct, Jia Baoyu's nanny, Nanny Li, is almost out of her feet now, and Nanny Li is about to sue her old man to settle the matter.

Grandma Zhu couldn't hold back her face either, and said with a smile: "As the old saying goes, 'People are always treacherous, horses are always slippery, and donkeys are always stingy'. I can see that kindness clearly at a glance."

"See what?" Daiyu smiled while holding Taoyue's hand.

Zhu Xiu hurriedly got up, and Daiyu smiled: "Sister, don't be too polite. Sister is here, and Mammy doesn't call me."

Grandma Zhu smiled and said, "I didn't tell her to be polite, you're here again. We'll be seeing each other for a long time in the future, don't make me dizzy by you coming and going like this."

Everyone who said it laughed.

For a while, Daiyu said: "The girl you mentioned earlier with a little bit of rouge between her eyebrows the size of a grain of rice has now been found. She is in Jinling. Coincidentally, the person who kidnapped her is trying to find a buyer... just This girl can't remember who her parents are, since my elder sister knows who she is, how can she know her relatives?"

Zhu Xiu was taken aback: last year she heard Wen Xing, the little girl of the Xue family, and knew that Xue Pan did not buy any girl by force, so she gave it a try and mentioned a few words when she wrote to her mother.I only said that when I was in the hands of Chai Ya people, I heard some stories from a girl in Gusu: There was a kidnapper who was in charge of abducting good-looking girls to support them. This girl has a neighbor, who is such a kidnapper, and rents a house to live in for a long time to support the girl. The girl is born well, with a little rouge the size of a grain of rice between her eyebrows.

Zhu Xiu really didn't expect to find it, let alone the Lin family.

Seeing that Zhu Xiuyuan opened her eyes, Mammy Zhu smiled and said: "There is such a coincidence in the world. I read your letter and chatted with Madam Chen, but she knew about this girl." Mother Chen's hometown is in Shili Street, Gusu. There is a neighbor named Zhen on that street. The daughter of the family has a rouge mole between her eyebrows. It is said that this is a mole that only a child born under the Bodhisattva's seat was born. Mother Chen has seen it before. It happened that this girl was kidnapped by a kidnapper. She was puzzled when she heard it, and sent someone to her hometown to inquire. They said that the girl was not found, and Zhen's family was gone. She is seven or eight points It must be the same person."

Speaking of this, Mother Zhu stroked Daiyu's hair on the temples, and sighed: "Let Madam know about this, Madam only said to do good deeds, or find this girl to save someone else, so you can ask the Bodhisattva to protect her more. So I told Mr. Lin, and sent someone to look for it seriously. Before we came, we didn’t hear the news, but we didn’t expect to find it. It must be that the madam is alive..."

Daiyu wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and said with a choked voice, "I was looking for the kidnapper in Gusu, but I really found the house rented by the kidnapper. After going, the family members rushed over, only inquiring about rich households, and they really found out that there is such a person who wants to sell his daughter."

After saying this, Zhu Xiu understood in her heart that it was because of Jia Min that the Lin family spent so much effort to find it.Perhaps Jia Min knew that he was going to die soon, and hoped that the blessings of this matter would be reported to his daughter, so he took the matter as a serious matter... Jia Min has passed away, and this matter has become a must for Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu thing.

"Mrs. Lin is kind-hearted, and she will be rewarded with good fortune. The girl should be happy when she has finished her unfinished business. But I don't know the background of Miss Zhen." Zhu Xiu said, and looked at Zhu Momo: "Since Mother said it was Chen Nanny's old neighbor, why don't you ask Chen Nanny?"

Grandma Zhu sighed: "I was also in front of the person she sent to answer the call earlier. The person said that the ancient temple next to the Zhen family was on fire, and even the house of the Zhen family was burned to rubble. The Zhen family did not know where to go. Even the neighbors don’t know about it.”

When Daiyu heard the words, she suddenly said, "Does Nanny Chen know that there are other relatives in the Zhen family? Maybe Master Zhen and Mrs. Zhen have gone to seek relatives?" Just like her, she lives in her grandfather's house.

Grandma Zhu was just about to say that Grandma Chen had said that Mr. Zhen had no parents, brothers or sisters, but she suddenly remembered that she hadn't mentioned Mrs. Zhen.

Busy people went to ask Nanny Chen, and Nanny Chen hadn't slowed down due to motion sickness and seasickness. She heard the little girl's message and struggled to come over. As soon as she entered the door, she said happily, "I really found it? Amitabha, since I found that My daughter, the wish my wife made in front of the Bodhisattva that day will surely come true. Don’t be sad, girl. My wife is dedicated to you. I only hope that the blessings will protect you from being safe and successful. "

Zhu Xiu said in her heart, she is good at talking, and she is also an exquisite character.

Nanny Zhu hurriedly asked her, "Does that Mrs. Zhen have any relatives?"

Nanny Chen rubbed her head, thought for a while and said, "Mrs. Zhen's maiden name is Feng, I really can't remember whether it is from Daruzhou or Xiaoruzhou."

Taoyue was listening, and clapped her hands when she heard the words, and said: "It's good to have a place, no matter how big or small, it's all a small county. Mrs. Zhen can marry a village eunuch, and her natal family is well-off if she wants to come, and she knows her surname. Still can't hear it."

Daiyu also said: "I was about to write a family letter to my father, so I told my father these things, thinking that the girl's family reunion will not be far away."

As soon as these words were said, Zhu Xiu had a voice in his head: "Ding, get 1 point of merit."

this?Could it be that there is merit in saving people, or in other words, saving people on the life book?

Zhu Xiu thought, if it was the former, it would be easier, as there are people who suffer from disasters every year, and she could save many people by giving up some money;It's just that if it's the latter, it's too difficult. Like Yinglian's case, there is no merit in indirectly rescuing her from the kidnapper. You have to wait until she is reunited with her mother and her fate is completely changed before she can get 1 point.

Zhu Xiu suppressed her thoughts secretly, no matter how much speculation is useless, she should try it before distinguishing.

After this day, Zhu Xiu sent people to send a lot of rice, grain and clothes to Beijing Salesian Bureau, as expected, they didn't get any reminder.Zhu Xiu wasn't discouraged either, but she just heard from her mother-in-law that there were dozens of children, big and small, in the Salesian Bureau, and they were only half hungry and half full for two meals a day. There is no money to spend, and besides, I often get some rewards, so I took all the silver to buy food and sent it away, which can be regarded as a kind of gratitude from God."

The mother-in-law is from the Lin family, and said happily after hearing the words: "Girl is kind-hearted, at the current price of rice in Beijing, you can buy 150 catties of high-quality rice for one tael of silver, and if you change it to coarse grains and old rice, you can buy twice as much. The baby is full."

Later, Daiyu heard that she also donated twelve taels a month to buy clothes for the Salesian Bureau, take in beggars, and repair houses, etc.The housekeeper outside the Lin family was experienced in handling affairs, and instead of directly sending the money to finish the work, he asked the accountant to make an account book. All the above-mentioned things were done by the Lin family either by purchasing or hiring people.

Seeing this, Zhu Xiu also put her own one tael in. According to the envoy of the Lin family, Madam Zhu also added two taels, and Madam Chen... There are so many people, there are 18 taels of silver per month.

Zhu Xiuben was also worried that the subordinates would swell their faces and pretend to be fat in order to cater to the master's favor.After hearing this, Grandma Zhu laughed at her unfounded worries, "The big head here belongs to the girl, and the rest are two taels of Lin An and his wife, one tael of Chen Nanny, including you and me, which is 16 taels. The rest are all But if I can do it myself, there is a hundred yuan more, and a few dozen or so less, there is no such person, and if there is, the housekeeper will not agree."

Zhu Xiu felt more at ease.On the other hand, in the accounting office, it is thoughtful to use the money left over every month to teach these children some crafts, and the older ones can be apprentices.

The chief housekeeper, Lin An, was quite proud: It is hard to tell now, but in a few years, some of these children may be useful.
