The factory has a three-day New Year's holiday, from New Year's Eve to the second day of the Lunar New Year, and starts working as usual on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
Li Guihua saw them and came up to them with smiles on their faces, and asked: "Da Ya, what did your factory send out?"
Sanya recited the things distributed by the textile factory happily, and then said: "Mom, the eldest sister also got two large pieces of defective cloth. I made a dress for Liuya. It's just a little bit better. Finish it."
Just fill it with cotton and you can wear it.”
Li Guihua was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear. She took the basket and asked, "Da Ya, what are you going to do with the remaining cloth?"
Tian Shao knew she had a plan as soon as he heard this, and said: "I will make two more spring clothes for Liuya. You can decide how many there are. But you are not allowed to give them away, they can only be used by your own family."
Li Guihua smiled and said: "I want to make a new dress for your grandma and give it to her next time I go to the mountains."
Tian Shao doesn't object to this. He should fulfill his filial piety. Even though what Grandma Li did before was quite excessive, it cannot erase the good things she did in the past.
Dinner had been prepared and was put in the pot to warm. When it was served, Tian Shao actually had three meat dishes. He frowned and asked, "Mother, have you weighed the meat that Zhao Kang sent? How much is it?"
She would definitely not ask for Zhao Kang's meat in vain, even if she had already paid the matchmaker, she would have to pay him back when she returns after the New Year.
Li Guihua never closed her mouth after getting this piece of meat, and said with a smile: "We weighed it, including the bones, it weighs nineteen kilograms. I weighed five kilograms and gave it to your fat aunt, and I kept the rest."
Tian Shao also objected. The fat aunt's husband had saved Tian Dalin's life, and now that her life is better, it's time for her to help him: "Mom, don't give the rest of the meat away to others, keep it for yourself!"
Nowadays, cold meat can be stored well and it will not go bad even if it is stored for more than ten days.
Li Guihua secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she didn't pursue the case. She only gave the fat aunt two kilograms and exchanged the other three kilograms for her. Afraid that Tian Shaowen would reveal her fault carefully, she immediately changed the subject: "Wu Ya tells Liu Ya about you every day."
The meat buns are delicious, you can make meat buns for them to eat tomorrow morning!"
Tian Shao did not refuse, and said with a smile: "Okay, soak the prunes and fungus in the evening, and then make some sour bean buns."
After dinner, Sanya took the new clothes she had made to Liuya to try on.
Tian Shao looked at the clothes and said with a smile: "I told you this clothes are too big, but you still insist on making them longer. This is almost like a full-length coat."
Sanya deliberately made her clothes longer. Even if her family is well off now, she cannot make new clothes every year.
But Liuya was very happy. She touched the clothes gently and said, "Sister, it would be better if it is longer. It can last four or five years."
Touching Liu Ya's sparse and yellow hair, Tian Shao said lovingly: "It's okay. I'll ask your third sister to make you a new one next winter. A new suit every year, and Liu Ya will have new clothes every year.
Already."
The five sisters have lived a poor life at home these past few years, but have never been abused. At most, they have fought and lost with the village children. It's not like Liuya, who has lived an inhumane life in the past two years.
Liuya quickly waved her hand and said: "No need, eldest sister, don't waste this money. I can just wear fifth sister's old clothes."
Because she had suffered from hunger and cold in the past few years, Wuya was half a head taller than her.
Erya leaned over and said, "Sister, can you make me some new clothes since spring has begun? My clothes are all old and patched. Mom said she wanted to show me my love, so I can't wear those clothes."
Tian Shao frowned when he heard the look. Erya will only turn fifteen in March next year. Who is she at this age? She felt it was necessary to have a good chat with Li Guihua.
Seeing her stern face, Erya didn't dare to say anything anymore.
Seeing that the atmosphere was bad, Wuya said tactfully: "Sister, Liuya is so smart. She remembers all the words I taught her these days. Sister, if you don't believe it, take a test on Liuya."
Tian Shao did not take the Liuya exam. She had known that this child was not only smart but also precocious. Li Jin and his wife were not human beings. If they treated Liuya as their own daughters and raised them well, the child would definitely repay them well in the future: "Liuya,
Wait until eldest sister comes back next time to buy you a beautiful pencil case."
Wuya has wooden stationery made by Uncle Li, but she is not jealous of Liuya either. She has been thinking about Liuya ever since she was sensible, and now that she comes back, she wishes she could give all her share to Liuya!
Tian Shao was very pleased to see that neither Si Ya nor Wu Ya had any objections. Now it seemed that except for Er Ya, who was a bit selfish, the others were tolerant.
After chatting with Liu Ya, Tian Shao went to Tian Dalin and Li Guihua to ask about showing Er Ya.
Li Guihua's idea is very simple: "Erya needs to start looking for a wife as early as possible. Daya, your father can't do heavy labor now, and our family needs a man to support the family."
Tian Dalin also meant the same thing: "Don't worry, Erya won't be allowed to get married before she turns eighteen."
Tian Shao said: "Father, mother, I told you that if you let Erya have a job before showing her off, you will be able to find someone with better conditions. Why, you don't believe me that I can't do it?"
Having a job and not having a job are two completely different concepts.
Li Guihua was silent for a while and said: "Da Ya, it's not that your father and I don't believe you, but that some people see that our family is getting better now and they want to take advantage of Er Ya. These days, there are young people who deliberately talk to Er Ya.
Give her something, and this girl will be so happy that she can't find anything to do with it."
Tian Shao was shocked. Their family's life was just getting better now when they were targeted. If they knew that they had made a fortune, Tian Shao was shocked when he thought of this. No, this matter must be hidden from someone.
I won’t say anything. Well, even about publishing a book, I can’t say anything about it yet.
Li Guihua nodded and said: "Erya is obsessed with finding a good husband. If you continue like this, it will be easy to be coaxed. Daya, your father and I are really afraid of Director Li's matter, so we want to arrange her marriage as soon as possible."
Let’s settle it. If she doesn’t get a job, her life will be fine with you sisters taking care of her in the future; if she gets a job, your father and I won’t have to worry about her anymore.”
Hearing this, Tian Shao didn't object anymore. In the countryside, early marriages are common, and those who get married at the age of 16 or 17 are common, and Erya also wants to marry a good man. If someone is really plotting against him, that will be a big trouble. Tian Shao reminded:
"Mom, dad, you can get engaged, but you have to get married after you are eighteen years old."
After talking about Erya, Li Guihua asked about Li Aihua. Just now, her daughters had trouble asking, but now they have no scruples. She had the same idea as Erya, and she didn't understand why Tian Shao, such a good partner, didn't
Keep it for yourself.
Tian Shao said: "Mom, I won't be a matchmaker for others. It's Sister Aihua that Mr. Zhao is interested in."
Li Guihua was very disappointed. But thinking about the more than ten kilograms of meat, she felt that it was too easy to hold the matchmaker gift.
Tian Shao didn't want her to talk about it all day long, so he simply made his attitude clear: "Father, mother, I will not stay in Yongning County in the future. If anyone comes to ask for a kiss, I will refuse."
Even though she had a three-year contract, she couldn't resist some people who saw her potential and went directly to Tian Dalin and his wife. If Li Guihua felt that the other party's conditions were good and agreed, she would have to vomit blood.
Li Guihua's face changed drastically and she asked hurriedly: "If you don't want to stay in Yongning County, where are you going?"
Tian Shao would not say that he would go to a first-tier city, but he would say euphemistically: "I will go to the district or province, but it is too early to say that now. I will wait until I get my high school diploma."
