Chapter 151 Favor

  Tian Shao returned to the rental house after get off work, opened the door and went in, and saw Mrs. Shen with a sad face: "Grandma Shen, what's wrong with you?"

  Ms. Shen sighed and said: "My niece and daughter-in-law have no milk and the child is so hungry that she is crying. I found two newborns but were rejected. But this child can't drink rice soup, and throws up when he drinks it."

  Tian Shao heard from Grandma Shen that her niece and daughter-in-law were about to give birth a few days ago, so she kept running to her natal home during this time: "Then what should I do?"

  Ms. Shen said worriedly: "I can only continue to inquire about women who have just given birth, and then ask someone to buy milk powder for the child. I just hope it goes well, otherwise the child will not be able to bear it if this continues."

   Tian Shao happened to have a can of baby milk powder on hand, so he said without thinking, "Grandma Shen, I have a can of milk powder here, I wonder if children can drink it?"

  After confirming that it was the milk powder for children, Mrs. Shen said eagerly, "Big ya, show it to me quickly."

  After getting the milk powder, Mrs. Shen hesitated again: "Big ya, where did you get this milk powder?"

   "It was given by Aunt Yang, who said that I had to make up for my hard work in studying, but this milk powder was brought back by Sister Aihua's future sister-in-law."

  Mrs. Shen was overjoyed, and went out with the milk powder in her hands. A young man brought him back until dark.

   Seeing Tian Shao, the young man first thanked him, and then asked, "Girl, how much is this milk powder?"

   The other party's family is doing well, so it is naturally impossible for Tian Shao to give it away. But before she could speak, Mrs. Shen waved her hand and said, "Liberation, don't worry about this matter, it's getting late, you should go back quickly!"

  The young man left quickly, like a gust of wind.

  Old lady Shen said: "Big ya, this can of milk powder will be worth fifteen yuan to you. I won't give you any money, and it will directly cover your five-month rent. Do you think it will work?"

  Tian Shao doesn't know the price of milk powder, but she knows that this kind of milk powder is not available in China and is imported. Imported things are only sold in overseas Chinese stores, and they have to be sold in foreign exchange certificates, so she didn't take advantage of the fifteen yuan.

  The next day Tian Shao told Li Aihua about this matter: "I told Grandma Shen about it, and she might ask Auntie about it."

  Li Aihua said nonchalantly: "There is still a can of milk powder at home, if she wants it, I can sell it to her."

   "Did your elder brother buy the wrong milk powder?"

   Milk powder is also divided into infants and elderly people. Tian Shao guessed that they should buy it for Grandpa Li, but ended up buying it for children.

Speaking of this, Li Aihua didn't know whether to laugh or worry: "Zhou Ning didn't know who said that the elderly drink milk powder well, so she went to the Overseas Chinese Store and bought two cans of milk powder. But she didn't tell anyone clearly and just said I bought milk powder, but they gave the baby milk powder. You said that you can buy the wrong milk powder, can she take care of my elder brother and nephews and nieces in the future?"

   Tian Shao laughed and scolded Li Aihua for eating carrots and worrying: "Her natal family is by her side, and she will take care of her own natal family after she gave birth."

   Li's mother has a job here, and Li Aihua is not married and her youngest son is still in high school, so it is impossible for her to take care of the child there.

   Li Aihua went home at night and told her mother about it.

Mother Li said: "Old lady Shen has come to see me this morning, and sold her another can of milk powder for fifteen yuan. With these two cans of milk powder, it is enough for them to find a mother with enough milk." .”

  It is mainly for the newborn child to drink, otherwise it will not be sold no matter how much money is given, and her family does not lack this money.

  Li Aihua smiled and said: "The old lady is pretty quick. But Tian Shao sold it for fifteen yuan, so she should be more relaxed now."

  Mother Li scolded her excitedly, "Tian Shao doesn't need you to worry about it, you should think about yourself more, your night school teacher said you don't care."

Originally, she thought that Tian Shao was so outstanding because Tian's father and Tian's mother taught her well, but after she found out about Tian Dalin and his wife, she realized that she was going wrong. It doesn't matter.

  Li Aihua said with a bitter face: "Mother, it's not that I don't study hard, it's really too difficult. Oh, if only I could be as smart as Tian Shao."

  Mother Li laughed and scolded: "It's the first time I've seen such a smart girl at my age, so don't think about it."

  At noon this day, Zhao Xiaorou gave Tian Shao six tickets while there were only two people in the office: "I saw those things. You are at a loss for the twenty yuan wages. This is your compensation."

  Tian Shao opened it and saw that there were three meat tickets and three sugar tickets. She immediately put them in her pocket and said, "Miss Xiaorou, I hope you can entrust me with such a job in the future."

   "I will definitely find you if I need it."

   It is impossible to find other people to make such beautiful accessories.

  Ms. Shen has many relatives in Yongning County, and many of them are in factories. Tian Shao knew that her nephew and son-in-law were slaughtering pigs in the meat joint factory, so she begged her to buy some pig offal and bones. If Tian Shao said he wanted to buy meat, he would definitely not have it, but the bones and offal were not eaten by anyone, so the other party agreed.

  Going home from vacation, Tian Shao searched around the gate of the factory but didn't see Erya, so he had to go back with a half-basket on his back.

  At the entrance of the village, I ran into a white-headed old woman again. She looked at Tian Shao's back basket with burning eyes: "Big girl, what good things did you bring back this time?"

  Tian Shao didn't hide it, and said: "I bought bones and two pieces of pork offal at the grocery store, and I also bought salt and soy sauce from my mother."

  The white-headed old woman waited here specially, she took out a dime and handed it to Tian Shao, saying: "Big girl, sell me a bone!"

  Although there is no meat, it can be a little oily when used to make soup.

Tian Shao would never agree, once she got the idea, everyone would come to her and buy them: "Ma'am, I bought these bones specially for my parents' health, so I can't sell them to you. If you want to buy bones, you can buy them tomorrow." You can go to the supply and marketing cooperative or the county non-staple food store."

  No matter how crooked the old woman is, she will not let go of Tian Shao. When she couldn't see it, she said she was buying it, but she was actually trying to take advantage of it. The big bones cost ten cents a catty, and it took more than one piece like a tube bone, and it took a lot of effort to carry it back from the county.

   Seeing that her oil and salt did not enter the white-headed old woman, she was so angry that she looked at Tian Shao's back and cursed: "What's the big deal, it's just a few bones. I'm going to buy a catty of pork belly tomorrow to eat."

   Just let it go, even if she was willing to buy it, she wouldn't have a meat ticket.

  Tian Shao heard her words, turned his head and said: "Big bones are nothing special, so don't block me at the village gate from now on."

  The white-headed old woman made a big fuss and was ashamed.

  It wasn't until Tian Shao got home that Erya twisted her foot on the way to pick her up. He happened to meet Captain Tian who was going to the commune to do some business, so he went home on his bicycle.

  Tian Shao looked at her swollen high ankle, frowned and said, "Why didn't you apply medicine?"

  Li Guihua said: "What kind of medicine do you apply, just rest for two days and you'll be fine."

  Tian Shao saw that Erya was in unbearable pain, and immediately asked Sanya to invite the barefoot doctor next door, Uncle Zhang, to have a look. Uncle Zhang worked as a clerk in a pharmacy in the county for more than ten years before liberation. He could make some plasters for bruises, and the effect was very good.
