Chapter 191 Mercy

  Because the time is relatively tight, Tian Shao only mixed two kinds of fillings: dried plum vegetables and capers. The meat buns were put on the pot, and the smell spread quickly. The youngest son of the next-door neighbor, Tian Damao, yelled for meat when he smelled the smell.

  Tian Damao's wife couldn't resist her son's entanglement, and she also wanted to eat meat buns. But with Li Guihua's temper, it was impossible to ask for it, so she brought a catty of rice to the door.

  Li Guihua knew her intentions and did not refuse, and gave her two dried meat buns with dried vegetables for a pound of rice.

  Si Ya was unhappy, and shouted loudly: "Mother, our family doesn't have enough food for ourselves, why give it to their family?"

   After finishing speaking, he ran into the kitchen to complain to Tian Shao.

   Tian Shao actually heard about it long ago, but she didn't interfere with it. After all, it's a neighbor next door, and it's unreasonable for someone to exchange something for nothing and then refuse.

  Li Guihua felt a little guilty, put the empty bowl back into Aunt Mei's hand and said in a low voice, "My eldest sister doesn't allow me to exchange the things at home. Just this time, next time you want to eat meat buns, go to the state-run restaurant to sell them."

  Aunt Mei still felt that she was at a loss, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely go to a state-run hotel to change it next time."

At this time, Tian Shao came out of the kitchen, smiled and said to Aunt Mei: "Auntie, let Xiaocao come over. Wuya said that there is a piece of clothing that she can't wear, and she wants to wear it for Xiaocao, so you let her come over." try."

   Wuya used to be close with Xiaocao, but this winter she got a new padded jacket, so she wanted to wear her worn-out padded jacket for Xiaocao. She just came back and saw that Xiaocao was wearing very thin clothes. Although Wuya's clothes were not very warm, they were still better than the clothes Xiaocao was wearing.

  The current old clothes are also treasures. After hearing this, Aunt Mei stopped complaining and went back happily with the meat buns. After a while, Xiaocao, who was as thin as firewood, came over.

Tian Shao saw that she was wearing four or five shabby autumn clothes, her face was blue and snot from the cold, she turned her head and said to Wuya: "Get her a basin of hot water to wash her face and hands, and then put your old cotton clothes Put the cotton trousers on for her."

  Xiaocao didn't dare to look up at Da Ya, so she just muttered, "Thank you, Da Ya."

  After changing into clothes, Tian Shao gave her a meat bun with dried plums and vegetables and said, "Eat it, and go back after eating."

  Xiaocao was very moved, but she was reluctant to eat it: "Sister, can I take it back? My second sister has never eaten meat buns, so I want to eat them with her."

   Tian Shao's nose was a little sore, he shook his head and said, "Take it back, you and your second sister won't be able to eat it anymore."

  Tian Damao's family is very patriarchal, and all good things are tightly attached to the two sons. Xiaocao and her two elder sisters were treated poorly, and it was a blessing to grow up.

   Xiaocao paused, then lowered her head and began to eat in small bites. When she ate the meat, the soup and aroma slowly overflowed her lips, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

  Li Guihua scolded in a low voice: "You **** girl, why did you give the padded jacket to Xiaocao without my consent?"

  Tian Shao glanced at her, and said: "The padded jacket has been worn for six years and has been changed and changed again and again, and it is not warm for a long time. Wuya likes Xiaocao, and if she wants to help her, she will do what she wants."

  Li Guihua didn't pursue this matter any further, but she also warned Tian Shao that she had plans for everything in the house, and she was not allowed to give it away casually.

   Tian Shao listened to her talking about whether she was as big as a cow, and said helplessly: "Mother, if I have any ideas about how to deal with the things at home, I will ask you first, okay!"

  That's about it.

  After finishing the side dishes, Tian Shao asked her to rinse her mouth and then gave her a sour bean bun: "Take it to your second sister!"

  Second Sister Xiaocao didn't eat the sour bean bun, but it fell into the mouths of her two younger brothers. After Wuya knew about it, any food she gave to Xiaocao afterwards was told her not to take it home after eating it on the spot.

  As soon as the lunch was ready, Uncle Li's loud voice sounded outside: "Osmanthus fragrans, Dalin, open the door."

   Si Ya heard Uncle Li's voice, and ran out happily to open the door, and then the whole family came to welcome him. Uncle Li sent Erya back this time, and at the same time brought a lot of things.

  Tian Shao saw that Er Ya was so thin that she was almost out of shape, so she greeted Uncle Li and dragged her into the room.

Seeing that he brought a bunch of things, Li Guihua couldn't help but said: "Brother, there is nothing missing at home now, so don't send anything in the future. There are so many mouths in the house, and Sankui didn't marry a wife, so take all the things you have. Exchange money..."

  Uncle Li scolded with a smile: "This food is not for you, I give it to the children. Da Ya and San Ya have worked hard in studying, so they should eat something good to make up for it."

  As soon as he entered the room, Erya took out twelve yuan as if offering a treasure: "Eldest sister, I have earned twelve yuan these days. Elder sister, I will give you the money. You can buy more meat and eat it later."

  Tian Shaocai refused to accept her money, and said, "Erya, you are too young to do such physically demanding things, otherwise you will not grow taller."

  Before, it was fine, the family was too poor and had no choice but to make Erya suffer. But now that the family's foreign debts are paid off, and she also has a job to supplement the family, she doesn't want Erya to do such heavy work anymore.

   Erya said with a smile: "This time I went to the mountain, my aunt and cousin said that I grew a lot taller. Big sister, my height is not bad, it doesn't matter if I am not long."

  In fact, not only Erya, but the five sisters including Tian Shao have grown taller. But after all, it is not obvious that she is seventeen years old, but Erya and Sanya are like bamboo shoots, very obvious. Li Guihua attributed the credit to eating well, but Tian Shao knew that the root cause was the occasional bone broth.

Seeing her ignorance, Tian Shao said helplessly: "Working too hard will not only affect your height but also your lifespan. Our father is not as good as before because of overwork. I am nervous now, and I will wait until later. I'm going to take him to the hospital for a checkup."

   Now even Tian Shao would not be willing to take him to Tian Dalin, so he could only coax him to go after the manuscript fee was sent.

  Erya's eyeballs almost popped out, and she said, "What are you talking about? It affects life span."

  Tian Shao said: "If you don't believe me, you can go to the town health center and ask the doctors to see if I'm scaring you."

  Earlier, Erya followed Tian Dalin to cut firewood, but she didn't dare to carry too heavy a load, and it weighed fifty or sixty catties. Jitian Dalin didn't watch from the side, she actually helped to carry a hundred catties of charcoal to sell outside.

  Erya was frightened, and hurriedly said, "Sister, then I won't live long."

   Tian Shao smiled and comforted: "This time is not long, so it won't be affected. The family's work is not good, but don't act recklessly like you were at the uncle's house, it will hurt your body."

   Erya dared to do that.

After Tian Shao said this, she smelled her body and said disgustedly: "How many days have you not bathed? It stinks, hurry to wash your hair and take a bath. I made meat buns today, you wash them and eat them. "

   Erya turned her worries into joy, and said with a smile: "Elder sister, I'll go wash now."

   Since falling into the water and waking up, the elder sister is good at everything, the only bad thing is that she is very particular. In order not to be disgusted by her, the family members are now cleaning very clean inside and out.
