A group of people must be very disappointed if they fail to grab a girl.
But then I thought: I didn’t grab it, and I didn’t get any advantage from outsiders.
Everyone instantly felt mentally balanced again.
You look at me and I look at you. Those who were scolding me just now all curled their lips.
Of course, there are also people who have small thoughts in their hearts.
What if my daughter follows Mrs. Qiu?
Since he came down the mountain specifically to find his relatives, he must be a person who is greedy for his parents' love and wants the warmth of his family.
Who is Mrs. Qiu? She is withdrawn, has a bad temper, and even chokes people when she speaks.
A girl of seventeen or eighteen years old is at the age when she is young and energetic.
They rarely want to listen to the nagging of the elderly.
Besides, Mrs. Qiu's family has better conditions, but it's too lonely.
There is no man either.
If I get married in the future, I won’t have anyone from my mother’s family to help support me.
Unlike families like theirs, which have several children.
There were also cousins who walked out and saw a huge crowd.
When you go to your husband's house, even if you just stand there, you can still scare people.
Several women with lively thoughts have already begun to make plans in their minds——
I'll go to Mrs. Qiu's house tomorrow and get close to that girl.
Tell her more about the customs and rules in the countryside. As long as the child is not too stupid, she will understand.
For a woman, having a natal family is so important.
He Tiantian: ...As long as you are happy, I don’t care.
Sujiacun was noisy for a while, and soon returned to its usual tranquility.
Smoke began to rise from the chimneys of each house, and the village heard calls for people to go home for dinner.
There are also the sounds of chickens and dogs.
The small mountain village is quiet and noisy, with a strong smoke and fire atmosphere, like a harmonious rural picture.
After sending Su Guoqiang away, Mrs. Qiu and He Tiantian were left at home.
Mrs. Qiu watched as He Tiantian quickly cleaned up the dishes and boiled hot water in a large pot.
She murmured, "Save it, there isn't much water in the tank," as if she disliked He Tiantian for consuming too much water.
But, she didn't really stop it.
He Tiantian traveled through dozens of worlds, got along with old people, and became an old man herself.
Therefore, she knows very well the habits and personalities of most elderly people.
Old people sometimes preach to younger people, not because they really want to stop them, but because they can't stand it or they like to nag.
They don't actually mean any harm.
Of course, except for a very small number of bad guys who have aged.
He Tiantian's vision has long been honed in many mission worlds, except for the wild writers who were missed in the previous world.
Anyway, He Tiantian can tell that Mrs. Qiu is a hard-spoken and soft-hearted person.
For such an old man, he can easily deal with it by pretending to be confused when he should pretend to be confused.
In fact, if you take a step back, even if Mrs. Qiu is really a top-notch old lady, she can still coax people by saying more nice things.
He Tiantian herself has been a top performer, and she has used top class methods to deal with top performers.
The routines here are simply not too familiar to her.
"Hey, old lady, I know!"
He Tiantian still responded sweetly, without any of the impatience and rejection of young people towards the older generation.
"Don't just say yes, pay more attention!"
Mrs. Qiu still had a straight face, but she didn't even notice that the lines on her face were no longer so hard.
He looked at the water that was about to be heated, and then looked at the tattered robes on He Tiantian's body.
Mrs. Qiu didn't say anything. She pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then turned around and went to the main room.
Mrs. Qiu’s courtyard is a typical farmyard.
There are three rooms in the middle, with a wall to the east and a kitchen and woodshed built beside the wall.
There are two rooms on the west side, one for food, groceries, etc., and the other is rented to He Tiantian.
The main room is in the middle, the old lady's room is on the east side, and an empty room is on the west side.
He Tiantian estimated that it should be the house where her third daughter-in-law, who had remarried, originally lived.
Sure enough, Mrs. Qiu passed through the main room and entered the empty room on the west side.
Not long after, she came out carrying a bundle——
"Here! This is what my daughter-in-law left behind. If you don't mind it, take it and use it."
He Tiantian took the baggage, opened it, and found a few shabby clothes inside.
There are cotton jackets with slanted lapels and trousers with wide waists.
There are three or four pieces in total, and each piece is patched.
The fabric has faded due to frequent washing and looks particularly old.
However, the clothes were as old as they were, but they were very clean and did not smell moldy or smelly.
In this era, there is a shortage of fabrics, so giving old clothes to a stranger is already a very generous and generous person.
It's too late for He Tiantian to be grateful, so how could she dislike it.
Her eyebrows were curved and her smile was bright, "Old lady, thank you!"
Seeing He Tiantian's smile, Mrs. Qiu finally knew why she wanted to praise the little girl for smiling like a flower.
It's so beautiful, so, so contagious.
Faced with such a beautiful smile, Mrs. Qiu, a lonely old lady, felt better.
"snort!"
The old lady didn't say "you're welcome" or other polite words. She let out a cold sound from her nose, as if to say: You still know the truth!
He Tiantian would not care about such a arrogant old lady.
She asked the old lady to find a large wooden basin for bathing, cleaned it in the yard, then dragged it into the stove and poured hot water into it.
When Mrs. Qiu saw this, she turned around and was about to go out.
"Old lady, don't leave, I'll give you a bath!"
He Tiantian quickly called people to stop.
Mrs. Qiu was stunned.
Even though she knew that the little girl in front of her was a smart little girl, she still didn't expect that the child actually wanted to bathe herself.
By the way, these days, even my biological granddaughter may not be willing to bathe her biological grandmother.
Yep, I'm still taking a shower!
For those little girls who love beauty and are particular about it, it would be great if they don’t mind that the old man is dirty or smelly!
Mrs. Qiu herself couldn't tell how she felt.
Reason told her: This little girl's film was deliberately staged to trick her, a lonely old lady.
But the emotion is saying again: What's wrong with acting? What's wrong with lying? If she could keep doing this, she would rather be deceived by the little girl.
Seeing that the old lady didn't speak, He Tiantian hurriedly explained: "Old lady, if you feel embarrassed, then I will help you wash your hair and wipe your back first, and you can wash the rest by yourself!"
Mrs. Qiu suppressed her complicated emotions and squeezed out one word from her throat, "Yeah!"
This is agreed.
He Tiantian brought a small stool, held Mrs. Qiu's hand, and asked her to sit down.
The old lady was a little awkward, but she didn't resist. Instead, she followed He Tiantian's strength and sat down on the small stool.
He Tiantian found a towel and wrapped it around the old lady's collar.
"Old lady, lower your head and don't open your eyes!"
He Tiantian reminded softly.
"Huh! I need you to tell me, I'm not a child!"
Mrs. Qiu muttered dissatisfiedly.
He Tiantian quickly apologized, "That's right! I made a mistake. You are not a child, you are an old lady!"
He Tiantian said as she untied Mrs. Qiu's hair bun.
Well, a not-so-good smell hits my nose straight.
The old man probably hasn't washed his hair for a while. Although it's not midsummer, it's still April or May.
Everyone has changed into unlined clothes. Countryside people are not particular about washing and washing every day, but they still scrub down every ten days and a half.
Mrs. Qiu is old and it is very inconvenient to be alone.
And when you take a bath, wash your hair, etc., the room will be filled with water. If you don't do it well, you will fall down.
Therefore, Mrs. Qiu could only endure it.
If your scalp is really itchy, use a scalpel to scratch it.
Dandruff and even lice can be removed with a grate.
However, the taste cannot be changed.
Mrs. Qiu was a little embarrassed. If she didn't really want to wash her hair, she would have stood up and left.
"Little girl, do you dislike me?"
Mrs. Qiu's tone was not very good. She wanted to cover up her guilty conscience and shame with a bad voice.
"Old lady, I will wash your hair often from now on, okay?"
He Tiantian did not answer such words at all, but picked up the water ladle, scooped water from the bathtub, and poured it gently on Mrs. Qiu's hair.
The warm water flowed from the back of her head to her forehead, and Mrs. Qiu quickly closed her eyes.
He Tiantian cleaned it once, then took out the soap and rubbed it bit by bit for the old lady.
There was no foam at first, but after applying soap a few more times, there was some dusty foam.
He Tiantian gently massaged the old man's scalp with his fingertips.
Mrs. Qiu closed her eyes and lowered her head. She had not enjoyed that comfortable feeling for a long, long time.
She sighed again: Alas, this little naughty girl, even if she is a liar, I will admit it, old lady!
After massaging for a while, He Tiantian picked up the water ladle again and rinsed all the soap suds from her hair.
Then, she took off the towel around Mrs. Qiu's neck and wrapped the old lady's wet hair in the style of hair wrapping in later beauty salons.
Comfortable!
After washing her hair, Mrs. Qiu felt that her head seemed to become clearer.
He Tiantian helped Mrs. Qiu stand up. After she had adapted for a moment and was not dizzy, she pointed to the bathtub and stool and said, "Old lady, do you wash it yourself, or should I help you?"
Mrs. Qiu has already accepted He Tiantian.
But after all, it was the first time we met, and the time we spent together was too short, and Mrs. Qiu couldn't let go.
She said awkwardly, "You don't need to! I'll do it myself!"
It wasn't that she couldn't take a shower alone, but she was afraid that if she fell or had an accident while taking a shower, there would be no one at home and the neighbors would stay away.
She is an old lady, lying on the ground unable to move, that is a big trouble.
Now there is a little bratty girl guarding the door. What is she afraid of?
"Okay, then be careful, I'll be waiting at the door. Just call me when you're done washing!"
He Tiantian nodded obediently and said enthusiastically, "By the way, you can also call me when you want to rub your back!"
"……Um!"
Mrs. Qiu no longer had the initial viciousness.
Even if she wanted to protect herself with a fierce shell, she couldn't be "ruthless" when facing He Tiantian.
He Tiantian curled her lips, turned around and left the kitchen.
Mrs. Qiu quickly took off her clothes, sat in the bathtub and started scrubbing.
Ten minutes later, she turned around, facing the door with her back, and awkwardly shouted: "Come in!"
"Why!"
He Tiantian agreed crisply, opened the door and walked in.
Without squinting her eyes, she took the wet towel from the old lady's hand and began to rub her back.
Strips of plaster were rubbed off, and the water in the bathtub was a little turbid.
Mrs. Qiu was too embarrassed to look carefully, so she simply closed her eyes.
After rubbing her back, she hurriedly shouted to He Tiantian: "Okay, get out!"
"Hey!" He Tiantian still agreed crisply.
After the old lady got dressed, He Tiantian came in again to clean up the mess.
Just one bath made Mrs. Qiu feel relaxed physically and mentally. She felt as if her body had lost two pounds.
"Water, is there enough? If not, I'll call Shuanzi next door!"
Mrs. Qiu felt comfortable and began to take the initiative to care about He Tiantian.
"Enough! When I save enough money, we will build a well in the backyard so that we don't have to bother others to fetch water!"
He Tiantian smiled and boiled the water again.
"..." Mrs. Qiu wanted to say something out of habit.
But when she saw the pink smiling face sitting in front of the stove, reflected red by the firelight, she endured it again.
They are all thinking about digging a well in her house. This little brat should be willing to live with her for a long time.
When Mrs. Qiu thought about being accompanied by such a sweet-talking and meticulous person every day, her cold and hard heart could not help but soften.
[Well, it’s actually quite nice to have such a granddaughter! 】
Suddenly, Mrs. Qiu actually regretted that she should have promised Su Guoqiang in the afternoon.
However, it doesn't matter anymore.
There will be another chance in the future!
Besides, she still needs to observe more.
After all, she can't be the granddaughter of the Qiu family of the Su family.
He Tiantian boiled some water and washed herself thoroughly.
With wet hair, she put on the clothes that Mrs. Qiu brought for her.
The clothes are a little looser. I think Mrs. Qiu's daughter-in-law is fatter than her.
He Tiantian looked a little swaying in her clothes, but she looked like she had a different look.
Mrs. Qiu couldn't give a specific adjective, she just felt that the same clothes, worn by this little brat, looked better and more fashionable than her remarried daughter-in-law!
"It's getting late, go to bed quickly!"
Mrs. Qiu felt that her past few months had not been as "splendid" as today's day.
Her heart, as sinking as dead water, finally had ripples.
Mrs. Qiu still wanted to maintain her mean and venomous appearance, but she was always a little weaker when facing He Tiantian.
"Okay, old lady, I'm going to bed. You should go to bed early too. Call me if you need anything!"
He Tiantian agreed obediently and watched Mrs. Qiu go back to her room. She was not in a hurry to go back to her room.
After checking the door, yard, fire in the kitchen, etc., and making sure there were no problems, He Tiantian returned to the west wing.
The bedding was given to me by Mrs. Qiu. It was very old, but not torn and had no musty smell.
It is estimated that the old lady will take out the bedding to dry it every once in a while.
He Tiantian lay down and soon fell asleep.
Mrs. Qiu, who was in the east room of the main house, opened the window and saw He Tiantian cautiously and thoughtfully inspecting the whole family, and she felt even more satisfied.
But she still couldn't help but cursed: You weird little stinky girl!
On the other side of Qiujiaping, a girl suddenly woke up from her dream...
