Because he had a bicycle, Tian Shao helped four or five girls with their homework for half an hour after breakfast before returning to the county town.
Li Guihua sent Tian Shao out, and immediately asked her husband to go find Captain Tian with the money. When she heard that they were here to pay off a debt, Captain Tian said there was no rush, and that he would just deduct it when the money and food were divided.
After patting her head, Li Guihua said: "Oh, look, I forgot about this in such a hurry."
Tian Dalin felt that this matter should be done sooner rather than later, and said: "Now that I'm here, I'd better pay back the money to save everyone from making irresponsible remarks. Brother Northwest, I won't hide it from you, the money back was given by Shi.
Compensation. It’s just that it’s not appropriate to spread this matter. If anyone asks about it, I hope you can help cover it up.”
Captain Tian couldn't understand and asked: "Why are you so anxious to pay back the money?"
He was stuck with money before and refused to pay it back, but now he is in a panic, and he doesn't believe it's okay...
Li Guihua pretended to be angry and said: "My eldest girl is not the cause of the trouble. She went to the provincial capital on a business trip last week, and she brought back a radio yesterday. She said that her father stays at home every day and never visits to worry about boredom.
She has a radio so she can listen to the radio to pass the time. To buy the radio, she even borrowed money from Director Li. You tell me, isn’t this just a waste of money?”
Captain Tian was also a little surprised, but thinking about Tian Shao's previous behavior of protecting Tian Dalin, it was also reasonable: "It's just that this radio is not only expensive, but it also requires tickets. Where did Da Ya get the tickets?"
Radio tickets are not easy to get either. His eldest son bought his radio with great effort. Of course, radios six or seven years ago were much harder to buy than they are now.
Tian Dalin said with a smile: "The radio was crushed at one corner during transportation, so it is a defective product. The price is much cheaper if you don't need a ticket. Da Ya thought it was a good deal, so she gritted her teeth and bought it."
Upon hearing this, Captain Tian's wife immediately asked: "How much cheaper is it?"
The couple had already discussed this matter, and they couldn't tell the truth about this matter, otherwise they would not only be disliked by others, but they would also be asked to come to their homes if the news spread. So the couple agreed and said it would be twenty yuan cheaper.
It was twenty yuan cheaper and there were no tickets. Captain Tian and his wife felt that they had taken a big advantage. The captain's wife asked directly: "You need someone to buy something like this. Does Da Ya know anyone in the department store?"
Li Guihua smiled and said: "It was Director Li who helped. Her second aunt had relatives who worked in a department store, so she took care of her."
The captain's wife felt that Tian Shao was lucky to have met Director Li. Director Li had given so many good things to the Tian family in the past few months, which made her eyes water.
After returning the money, Tian Dalin asked Shang Erya to go into the mountain.
Li Guihua was moving a bench to wash in the yard, but she couldn't help it. Tian Shao muttered at dinner yesterday that the bench at home was sticky and he didn't know how to wash it.
Sanya has been busy learning to make clothes from Narcissus recently, and Li Guihua has been doing the housework recently. She felt ashamed when she heard this. No, today she started to clean up.
"Osmanthus, osmanthus..."
Li Guihua knew it was Fat Aunt from the voice. She opened the door and asked with a smile: "Why are you free to visit today?"
The fat aunt smiled and said: "I heard that Da Ya went to the provincial capital on a business trip and bought a radio for your Dalinzi family. Is it true?"
This is why Tian Shao is unwilling to spread the news about his writing of a book for the time being. In less than three days, everyone in the Hongqi Commune will know about it. Normal publication is fine, but if something goes wrong, he will become the laughing stock of the entire commune.
Li Guihua smiled and scolded: "You are really well-informed. You know it so quickly. Come, I will take you to see it."
Not only did he show the fat aunt, but he also opened it for her to listen to. Coincidentally, a piece of Huangmei Opera happened to be playing. The female character's voice was melodious and sweet, and the two of them couldn't help but sit down and listen.
The two of them were listening to the sound of Aunt Qin's voice outside. Li Guihua was a little annoyed but still went to open the door. When she came in, the heroine happened to be singing there: "To save Li Lang from home, who would have expected that he would be number one on the imperial list..."
"
Aunt Qin exclaimed: "What are you singing? The voice is really nice."
Li Guihua asked her to sit down and said, "I don't know what to sing, so I just let it go if it sounds good. Aunt Qin, what's the matter with you?"
She has a bad temper and loves to curse, and she doesn't have many good relationships, so people rarely visit her home. Aunt Qin, for example, has never visited her house before, and the reason why she came today was because of the radio.
Aunt Qin said with a smile: "Nothing, I just heard that Daya bought you a radio, so I came over to have a look. Yeah, this is the radio that Daya bought? It's really nice, but why is the lower right corner recessed?
Where’s one piece?”
Li Guihua said cheerfully: "It's better to be concave. It's just because it's concave that I don't need a ticket and it's twenty yuan cheaper. Otherwise, my eldest daughter won't be able to buy it even if she wants to be filial to her father."
Aunt Qin only heard that their family bought a radio, but she didn't know the allusion: "Why is it so much cheaper without tickets?"
Li Guihua said proudly: "Because this is a defective product! But it is also because the department store salesperson is a relative of Director Li's second aunt, so my eldest daughter got a big deal."
The fat aunt interjected: "Da Ya also bought cotton shoes for Dalinzi and Guihua. The cashmere used in the shoes is very warm. I just tried them on and I don't want to take them off."
Aunt Qin also wanted to try, but Li Guihua didn't give the opportunity and refused directly.
People stopped by all morning and it was so lively that no one left until it was time to make lunch.
Li Guihua had never been so happy. Not only did she not scold Siya and Wuya when they came back late, but she also kindly asked them to wash their hands and eat.
Although I don’t know the reason, I am quite happy to go home and have food to eat for the two of them without having to be scolded.
Tian Dalin and Erya arrived at Uncle Li's house at 10:30. Grandma Li put on the shoes as soon as she got them. After putting them on, she was so happy: "These shoes are really warm to wear. Da Ya is such a thoughtful kid."
It's much colder in the mountains than outside. After winter, the old lady basically stays on the kang and doesn't go out.
The eldest aunt said meaningfully: "Mom, this child Da Ya always remembers our kindness and will be filial to you in the future."
What happened last time completely angered my aunt. She not only scolded Uncle Li and his wife half to death, but also asked them to pay for Grandma Li's pension.
Uncle Li Er and his wife had never provided pension money before, but from now on, they will pay 120 kilograms of grain and 15 yuan per year, and the medical expenses will be shared equally. Li Er will never be allowed to enter her house until he can.
The uncle and his wife are trying to steal the chicken but lose the rice this time.
Uncle Li asked Tian Dalin and Erya to go into the mountain this time because he wanted them to help pick out charcoal. Now that the weather is getting colder, many people are starting to make fires, and the price of charcoal has also gone up.
Tian Dalin hesitated for a while but refused: "Brother, I've been feeling a little unwell recently and I don't dare to do heavy physical work anymore."
He was worried that his body would not be able to bear the burden of walking for four or five hours carrying more than 100 kilograms of stuff. If he had worked hard to make money in the past, he no longer dared to do so.
Uncle Li was startled. After asking for the reason, he did not dare to let Tian Dalin help him pick up the charcoal and went out: "Then you can install the kiln with Uncle Qing. This is not too tiring."
Tian Dalin thinks that Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Li can do this easy job. Others may have objections if they take this money: "No, there are still a lot of things to do at home. If brother is short of manpower, let Erya stay and help!"
Seeing that he didn't want to, Uncle Li didn't force it.
It was a rare trip to Yamada Forest and I didn't leave immediately, but stayed for one night.
After the eldest aunt went to bed, she said to her husband: "It's fortunate that Da Ya now has a job and can earn money to support the family. My brother-in-law can take a breather. Otherwise, if he doesn't work as hard as before, it won't take long for his body and bones to collapse."
Uncle Li was also very happy. If Da Ya failed to pass the exam and her brother-in-law ruined the family's life, it would be difficult: "Da Ya is filial and willing to support several younger sisters. Their lives will get better and better in the future."
The eldest aunt thought that her brother-in-law would be relieved of his heavy burden, but her husband was still working hard. She said distressedly: "Head of the family, you are also fifty years old. When we buy a foundation and build a house in Tianjiacun next year, our family will
Leave the heavy responsibility to Dakui and the others!"
Uncle Li has done no less work than Tian Dalin over the years, but both him and Mr. Li can hunt and eat well, and their bodies and bones are stronger. But after all, they are also older people, and their physical strength and energy are not as good as before.
"good."
In the second half of the night, Tian Dalin also carried charcoal and went out with uncle Li and his son. The charcoal was not for sale, but was going to be sent to the county for Tian Shao to use. How could his body endure without charcoal fire for reading at night.
After walking for four hours carrying fifty kilograms of charcoal, Tian Dalin fell on the bed and fell asleep directly after arriving home. When he woke up, he said to Li Guihua: "This work is too tiring. Next time you see my elder brother, ask him not to do it."
Already."
Li Guihua shook her head and said: "The third leader is not married yet, and the eldest brother wants to build a house in our village. There is money inside and outside. If you ask him to stop, what should he do if he needs money to build the house and marry his wife? You can borrow it.
?Even if we are willing to borrow it from Big Brother, we won’t take it.”
Money is needed inside and outside, so it’s impossible not to do it! Fortunately, the couple didn’t know that this bad idea came from Tian Shao, otherwise they would definitely give her a slap in the face. Of course, Tian Shao didn’t expect that the whole family would work so hard.
of.
Tian Dalin thought for a moment and said: "When they buy a homestead next year, let's talk to the team leader and let the team set aside a private land for my sister-in-law and them, so that they don't need to spend extra money to buy food."
Li Guihua is much better than him in this regard, and said: "If the team is to allocate a homestead, those petty-minded people will definitely make a fuss. If you ask me, then it will be easy to just enlarge the homestead and set it aside to develop vegetable fields.
good."
Tian Dalin thinks this is a good idea.
At noon on Thursday, Tian Shao drove to the post office to inquire, and it happened that the medicine had arrived. Two sacks of medicine, one in the front and one in the back. On the way back, the return rate was 100%.
Old Mrs. Shen was frightened when she saw so many medicines. Knowing that she had directly prescribed medicines for three months, she couldn't help but said: "You are really a kid. If the medicines prescribed by the doctor are not effective, wouldn't these medicines be enough?"
It’s all wasted.”
According to her idea, she should take three doses first, and then continue taking them if she feels they are effective. Anyway, she has the prescription in hand and can take it in the county.
Tian Shao believed in Zhao Xiaorou, and the person she recommended was definitely right. However, she still accepted the criticism humbly: "Yes, Grandma Shen, you are right. I will take the prescription back to the county town to get medicine."
She didn't regret the medicine she got in the provincial capital. After all, Chu Qiu said the medicine she got was more effective than the medicine in the county town.
