After finishing the banquet, Li Guihua brought back a bowl of pickled pork with pickled vegetables.
Tian Shao took one look and said, "Mom, with our conditions, we don't need to compete with everyone else for this bowl of meat. Forget it this time, don't ask for it again in the future."
Li Guihua knew clearly that she shouldn't compete with the villagers for meat. It was obvious that this girl disliked the meat and kept it. Alas, she didn't eat other people's leftovers or touch other people's used things. She didn't know what was wrong with her.
As soon as Tian Shao woke up from his nap, he heard his uncle and aunt coming.
Sanya whispered: "Sister, my uncle and aunt are here. They seem to be borrowing money to buy cloth or something. I didn't hear clearly. Mom said you are in charge now, so I have to ask you for your ideas."
Because Tian Shaogang was sleeping, everyone in the family knew that she took a nap for about half an hour and did not wake her up. Tian Dalin and Niu Zhong got along well with each other and chatted about Tian in the main room. As for Li Guihua, she was busy in the kitchen, and Li Chunhua helped there.
Niu Zhong and Tian Dalin were peers and could borrow money, but Tian Shao was a junior. He opened his mouth several times and could not say the word "borrow money".
Tian Shao took the initiative and asked: "Uncle, if you have anything to do, just tell me."
Niu Zhong felt relieved: "I recently got married to a girl, and the girl's family asked for a gift of eighty-eight feet and eight-foot-eight cloth. Our family can afford the gift money, but the cloth is difficult to get. Daya, are you here?
I work in a textile factory and I wonder if I can help get cloth."
Tian Shao frowned. Nowadays, who in the countryside can get eight-foot-eight pieces of cloth in one go? It is obviously deliberately making things difficult. No, it is not deliberately making things difficult, it should be testing. Testing the relationship between her uncle and her family, if the relationship is good, she will definitely
I will try my best to get these cloths.
Niu Zhong also knew that this matter was difficult, and said: "Da Ya, we can find a way to get two or three feet together, but we can't get more."
The eighty-eight betrothal gift is not expensive, and most people can get it together. Tian Shao did not ask further questions, and just said: "Nowadays, textile factories are very strict and can't get defective cloth. Are you in a hurry? If so.
If there's no rush, I'll exchange the cloth tickets with the workers when wages are paid."
Of the pieces of cloth she brought back before, Li Guihua kept one to make her own clothes, and sold the rest. After this incident came out, everyone thought it was easy for her to make cloth, and no one believed her even if she said she couldn't.
However, Li Guihua blocked her and did not bother her.
Niu Zhong said hurriedly: "No hurry, no hurry, just get it together before the Mid-Autumn Festival."
"That should be no problem." Tian Shao said. In fact, she had cloth tickets in her hand. This way she also let them know that it was not easy for her to get cloth.
After talking about this, Tian Shao asked with a smile: "Uncle, why didn't you bring Ermei with you? During the Chinese New Year, she even said she would come to stay at home for a few days and play with Sanya!"
Niu Ermei wanted to follow, but was rejected by the couple. First, she was afraid that Li Guihua would be unhappy and make her child feel wronged; second, she really needed someone to work at home.
During the meal break, Li Guihua took Tian Shao out and said: "Da Ya, your uncle's team is worse than ours. The food we receive every year must be paired with wild vegetables to be full. Your aunt just said, you two
My cousin is pregnant again, the grassroots are planning to get married again, and there is money everywhere..."
Tian Shao saw that she had so many things but didn't get into the topic, and said helplessly: "Mom, if you want to borrow money, you can borrow it. I have no objection."
Relatives like uncle and uncle who are close to each other come to borrow money, that’s fine. But uncle Li and uncle Tian come to borrow money, so just go to sleep!
Li Guihua shook her head and said: "It's not about borrowing money, I want to ask your uncle's family to send you firewood. Your father can't do heavy work now, and I and Erya rely on me and Erya for the firewood at home, so we really can't provide for you."
Tian Shao is no longer willing to use the coal stove now. It's okay to boil water, but the fried food is not delicious. And they don't cook at noon, so using the coal stove is a bit wasteful.
Li Guihua smiled and said: "Da Ya, let them send firewood, which not only solves the problem of having no firewood but also helps them. This is good for both families."
"Would it be bad?"
Li Guihua said: "If there's anything wrong with it, just give it to them according to the market price. Then give them some cloth or something. Your aunt and uncle will only be grateful to you."
After all, she just wanted to help her aunt's family, and Tian Shao nodded in agreement.
Li Guihua was very happy. She and Li Chunhua didn't move around frequently, and they really couldn't get along. When she heard her words, she wanted to curse. But after all, they were biological sisters, and she also hoped that Li Chunhua could live a more relaxed life.
After dinner, the three of them returned to the city. Because they had bicycles, they arrived home before dark. As soon as Tian Shao sat down and drank a glass of water, there was a knock on the door outside.
Sankui went to open the door and saw a strange young man who asked warily: "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm Song Mingyang, here to see Tian Shao."
After Sangui closed the door, he went into the room and asked Tian Shao. He was sure that he knew him before letting him in. He didn't see what Tian Shao looked like last time, only that he was tall. Now he can see clearly. His facial features are sharp and angular.
, because he is malnourished and has delicious food, and he is also very thin, but his pair of peach blossom eyes are particularly attractive.
After Tian Shao let Sankui enter the house, he asked softly: "I bought four ginseng sticks. Should I give them to you at once or in two parts?"
Song Mingyang said without thinking: "Let's give it in two installments! Miss Tian, I wonder if there is any milk powder left? My grandpa and grandpa Han have eaten the milk powder you gave them, and their complexion has gotten much better recently."
He blushed a little when he said this. After all, this milk powder is not only expensive but also expensive.
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Yes, I bought three cans, plus five kilograms of brown sugar and two kilograms of toffee."
Song Mingyang hesitated for a while and then said: "Can you give me some food stamps? My grandfather and his family are old and it is difficult to digest whole grains. I have used up all the food stamps you gave me last time."
He feeds himself well, his father has stopped coughing recently, and the health of several elderly people is much better than before.
"Give me the backpack!"
Tian Shao took the empty basket and started to fill it with things, and soon it was full.
Song Mingyang was ashamed and moved.
Tian Shao actually admires him. In the past seven years, he has been doing his best to take care of several elderly people. It's okay now that he is older. Seven years ago, he was only twelve years old. You can imagine how difficult it was.
After handing the things to him, Tian Shao whispered: "Song Mingyang, I have something to ask you for help."
The two gifts together cost several hundred yuan, and Song Mingyang was feeling guilty. When he heard this, he hurriedly said, "Comrade Tian, what's the matter?"
Tian Shao explained his needs, and then said: "If possible, I hope your grandfather and others can give me more exercises. Of course, if it is inconvenient, forget it."
For the four subjects of Chinese, Politics, Geography, and History, she had asked Li Qiao to help her with the questions, and she could also do them herself; but for Mathematics and Chemistry and Physics, Teacher Li could not help and she herself was not sure.
It happened that Song Mingyang's grandfather was a master in this field, so he wanted to ask them for help.
Song Mingyang already knew from Li Qiao that Tian Shao was determined to resume the college entrance examination and asked Li Qiao to help with the exercises, so he was not surprised by her request: "Chinese, chemistry, geography and history can also be asked."
As for politics, he didn't dare to touch it. This thing was relatively sensitive, and he was afraid that if something wasn't done right, it would lead to disaster.
This is a real surprise.
I'm very tired of typing today. Seeing the little cuties voting for me will make me feel better.
