In the early morning, Tian Shao took advantage of Sanya and Wuya to go out to work and stuffed a sealed tin box into the bottom of the bed. She couldn't trust so much money in a rental house, and she couldn't explain the storage.
The only source of money is to leave it at home.
The house would be locked when going out, and there had been no reports of thieves in the village, so she thought it was safest to leave it at home.
While having breakfast, Tian Shao and Tian Dalin said, "Father, mother, I will go back to the county town after lunch."
Li Guihua thought she was still angry about what happened yesterday, so she said with a straight face: "What happened yesterday didn't go your way, so why are you so angry?"
Tian Shao was also angry. He lowered his face and looked at her and asked, "I don't understand, why are you arguing with me about those insignificant people? Do you still expect Li Yansheng to provide for you in your old age?"
Li Guihua was so angry that she blushed and said: "Tian Daya, what do you mean by insignificant people? Those are your second uncle and cousin. If you act like this, others will say that you don't even recognize your relatives once you become rich."
Tian Shao also got angry and said: "To me, they are insignificant people. And, mother, I don't want to repeat these words over and over again. If you still want to quarrel with me about them,
Then I’d better not come back in the future, so as not to make everyone unhappy.”
Li Guihua shuddered when she remembered what her husband had said before. No, she couldn't follow in the footsteps of Tian Chun and Ma Dongxiang. She looked at Tian Dalin for help, but Tian Dalin didn't smooth things over for her this time.
There was no other way, Li Guihua could only bite the bullet and said: "Da Ya, it's mother's fault, don't be angry. Mother will never say anything again. This is your home, where can you go back?"
Tian Shao knew that she was hard-spoken and soft-hearted, so he would not let her fear that she would be in a lot of trouble in the future: "Mom, this is the last time. If there is another time, I won't tell you this again."
When the time comes, she will take action directly instead of just talking nonsense all the time.
Li Guihua felt relieved. She was really afraid that Tian Shao would slap her butt and leave: "Don't worry, there won't be another time."
When the couple went to work, Li Guihua complained to Tian Dalin: "My daughter just said she wouldn't go home, why didn't you say anything?"
Tian Dalin didn't want to argue with her, but just said: "As long as we spread the word that our family has red cloth, people will soon come to ask for it. Ten yuan and twenty pounds of rice are more, but marriage is for a lifetime.
For big things, those with a little more money will agree to it without blinking an eye."
You will get married once in your life, and who among these girls wouldn’t want to wear a new red dress to go out? It doesn’t matter if you don’t have the conditions, but if you have the conditions, you will definitely find ways to make your marriage more glamorous.
Li Guihua fell silent. Red fabric is hard to find now, and if anyone knew that she had such a large piece of material, they would have to cross the threshold.
Sankui came near noon, and he was very happy to see Tian Shao: "Cousin, my father and Uncle Qing have burned five thousand kilograms of charcoal during this period. My father asked me to go find Gu Fei, and I want to ask if I can do it now
Just give them charcoal."
"It's not cost-effective to sell charcoal when it's not cold yet. We can sell it at a good price when the weather gets colder."
Li Sankui said helplessly: "There is no room at home. Moreover, after working for so long without getting a penny, Mrs. Qing worried that she would be doing nothing for nothing."
Tian Shao frowned. Being so short-sighted will cause serious trouble over time: "Don't they know Gu Fei's identity?"
Li Sankui said with a smile: "Don't worry about this. My father said that the fewer people who know about this, the better. Not to mention Uncle Qing, even the eldest brother and the second brother don't know about it. The last time the second brother made me drink and wanted to make a joke, I was
When he found out, dad found out and whipped him."
Tian Shao expected that people outside wanted to inquire about the Li family's connections, but he did not expect that the Li family was not monolithic. This would be very dangerous, and she felt that she had to have a good talk with Uncle Li.
Tian Shao said: "I happen to have something to do with Gu Fei to buy cloth and cotton. It's not appropriate for me to go to him now. Just tell him. Don't come to me again after you've bought the things. Just take the things home."
"Cousin, how much do you want to buy?"
Tian Shao thought for a moment and said: "Forty pounds of cotton are needed first. For cloth, I need two winter coats and a quilt. I don't know how much it will cost, so I'll ask Gu Fei!"
Li Sankui was startled and asked: "Cousin, this is a lot of money? Do you have that much money on hand?"
Everyone knows that Tian Shao has a heavy burden, so he is still very poor even if he works.
Tian Shao smiled and said: "There are still some. But the money I originally paid to my uncle this month can only be delayed by two months."
"Cousin, dad said this money is a gift for you, you don't have to pay it back." At first, only Uncle Li, his wife and Li Sankui were aware of the gift to Tian Shao. No one else knew about it. Later, they found out that Tian Shao had already made a lot of money for them.
, there will be no objection.
Tian Shao said with a smile: "Now I am getting salary money. I have used my uncle's money and I don't pay it back. If this word spreads, others will not poke my spine? But I am short of money now. I will pay it back before the year."
Li Sankui could not refute.
After lunch, the brother and sister set off. When they were about to reach the county seat, Tian Shao sat down to rest and said, "Sangui, we are on different roads. You don't have to wait for me to find Gu Fei."
During this period, Uncle Li kept telling Li Sankui to do whatever Tian Shao asked him to do and not to talk nonsense. So he left without asking any more questions.
Tian Shao first went to the rental house, divided half of the mountain goods and vegetables he brought, then wrapped the bottle of Maotai wine in discarded paper and put it in his bag, then went to the textile factory's family building.
When they arrived at the place, Tian Shao saw two old ladies chatting while picking vegetables: "Grandma, are He Guoqing and Section Chief He at home?"
Among them, the thin old lady looked at Tian Shao. The older girl had to be careful when looking for her son: "What are you doing to my National Day?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Hello, Grandma He, my name is Tian Shao, and I work in the Finance Department. Section Chief He said that you like to eat mushrooms. Knowing that my grandma is from the mountains, he asked me to buy some dried mushrooms. It happened that I expressed
My brother came out this morning and brought it to you."
The lady next to me was overjoyed and asked: "Girl, where are your mushrooms? Show me quickly."
Grandma He didn't want to attract anyone to become an official, so she took Tian Shao back home.
The house is not big and there are many things, but everything is in order and the house is clean. From this we can see that the hostess is a hard-working person.
Tian Shao will first take out a bundle of vegetables, and then two packages of dried fungus and mushrooms: "Grandma He, there are two kilograms each of mushrooms and fungus. I grew these vegetables at home. If they are not valuable, just eat them fresh."
"How can I ask for your things for nothing?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Grandma He, my parents know that Section Chief He has taken good care of me and asked me to send it over again and again. I also hope that Grandma He can accept my parents' thoughts."
Grandma He was not one to take advantage, so she gave Tian Shao two cents for a bundle of vegetables. While she was entering the house to pour water, Tian Shao put the wine on the table and left quickly.
