Chapter 141: The Change of Jobs
Tiancheng and Lao Mu were talking and laughing, Xiuhua had already brought the meal to the board in front of the two, Mu Bao ran over from the desk that Mu Zhen used at home next door to the kitchen, screamed Tiancheng "uncle", and sat on the small bench next to Lao Mu.
Lao Mu saw Mu Bao sitting up, and immediately greeted Xiuhua and said, "Let the child go to the kitchen to eat, and I will drink two cups with Tiancheng!"
Tiancheng hurriedly stopped: "Let the child sit down and eat, we won't drink anymore, eat some food, talk about things, it feels more casual." ”
"It's been a long time since I've come, why don't you drink something!" Lao Mu still insisted.
"I've had a cold these days, and my fever is just right, and the doctor won't let me drink, saying that drinking is not good for my body, and it's better not to drink, anyway, we're not far away, when I want to drink, I'll come to you again!"
"Then let's have some food, why didn't you say anything when you had a high fever!" Lao Mu said in a complaining tone.
"It's just a little cold, why do you want me to say it, do you have to work hard to see me can't do it?" Tiancheng smiled, and then said: "It's about to be a holiday, and there are many things to do every day, so the body is a little overdrawn, and I can't bear it, so it's okay to take a rest, why bother to mobilize the people, it's not good, don't you say?"
"That's true, but you have to pay more attention to your body, you can take a break when you're tired, once you're tired, wouldn't it be more troublesome?"
"Look at what you guys say, why does it sound so scary!" said Xiuhua, who was scooping the bowl.
"This is really not to scare people, you see who the hospital is for, it is for those who don't pay attention to their bodies, overdraft, and are tired, this is really not a joke!" Tiancheng immediately expressed his approval of Tiancheng's topic of being tired and troublesome mentioned by Lao Mu, thinking of Lianying's awkward things for herself.
"Eat, let's eat. Lao Mu said, handing Tiancheng a steamed bun.
"Ouch, this steamed bun is big, I really can't eat it!" Tiancheng was a little surprised at the steamed bun handed over by Lao Mu.
"First and then, if you can't eat it, break it and eat it, this is at home, you're welcome!" Lao Mu said and put the steamed bun in Tiancheng's hand.
Mu Bao on the side saw that the two of them passed the steamed buns so politely, he stared at the scrambled eggs on the table and was so anxious that he only swallowed spit, this sumptuous dinner, since he finished building a house, he has never eaten it again, every day is always cold cucumbers, and then it is pickles mixed with soy sauce, it tastes no longer tasteful, just now Lao Mu mentioned letting himself go to the kitchen to eat, Mu Bao had twelve points of reluctance in his heart, and heard Tiancheng mention that he should sit down and eat, not to mention how happy he was!
Lao Mu politely let Tiancheng pick up the dishes, and then said to Mu Bao on the side: "Don't just look at it, ask your sister to eat together!"
Mu Bao immediately stood up, quickly ran to the door, and shouted to the kitchen, "Sister, hurry up and eat!"
"You eat first, I'll cut some pickles and eat them!" Mu Yan in the kitchen agreed while cutting the pickles.
When Mu Bao heard Mu Yan's response, he didn't care about speaking, so he sat on the small bench he had just sat on, picked up his chopsticks, and pointed directly at the plate of scrambled eggs on the board.
Tiancheng looked at Mu Bao's eagerness, and reversed the plate of eggs that Xiuhua put in front of him and the cold cucumber in front of Lao Mu, so that Mu Bao could easily pick up the vegetables.
When Lao Mu saw it, he hurriedly said: "Look at your politeness, little child, don't worry about him!"
"Children need nutrition the most, let him eat more!" Tiancheng finished speaking, and put a piece of cucumber in his mouth.
"Thank you, uncle, after so many days, we have only eaten cucumbers, and they are going to turn yellow!" Mu Bao said as he ate the eggs with relish.
"Kid clean nonsense!" Xiuhua said, pretending to be dumbfounded.
Mu Bao ate the aroma of eggs, and muttered before his mouth was idle: "To tell the truth, don't let me say it yet!"
Tiancheng was shocked when he heard this, and immediately understood that Lao Mu's family probably didn't even have the money to improve their lives because of building a house, but he didn't want to say it, so as not to embarrass Lao Mu and his wife, so he made Mu Bao happy:" Seasonal vegetables are good, the farmer's meal, what we have in the field, we eat, you don't know, when we were young, there was a vegetable garden in the team, that year the bamboo shoots and melons planted in the village were harvested, and the bamboo shoots and melons were eaten every day, and I still had an appetite when I saw the bamboo shoots, but now I found out that the bamboo shoots and melons really helped our whole village, if there were no bamboo shoots, I am afraid that I couldn't even eat the vegetables at that time?"
When Mu Bao heard Tiancheng talk about bamboo shoots, he stared at Tiancheng with big eyes and asked, "What does bamboo shoots taste like?"
"You haven't eaten much?" said Mu Yan, who entered the door with a pickle bowl.
"I haven't eaten it, I haven't eaten it!" Mu Bao said again.
"We were still eating last month!" Mu Yan affirmed.
"He wants to say that he hasn't eaten it, and he will go to the market tomorrow to buy you a few to eat!" Xiuhua said after Mu Yan's words.
"Hey, by the way, I just talked about it, and I also brought some big bones with meat in the back of the car, leaving two for you to make soup for the children. After Tiancheng finished speaking, he put down the chopsticks in his hand and was about to walk out of the house, Xiuhua grabbed him and said, "Don't, you take it back to Xiaojing and her mother to eat!"
"Look, you're polite again, just now I was afraid of shabby, I didn't have the embarrassment to take it out, just now I heard the child say that I had eaten enough cucumbers, so I thought of taking the bones to boil the soup first, to relieve the child's hunger. Tiancheng said apologetically.
"You sit down to eat, we don't lack food, don't listen to the children's nonsense!" Lao Mu stood up and persuaded him.
"If you don't let me stay, do you think my sincerity is not enough, or you think my things are not good, we old man, where is there such politeness, and if you are polite, I shouldn't have eaten here today!" Tiancheng said insistently,
Lao Mu and his wife heard Tiancheng say this, so they no longer insisted, let Tiancheng go out of the house, opened the storage box behind the car, took out a bag of bones, brought it to the house, and put it on the table behind the board.
Tiancheng, who sat down, picked up the steamed bun and said, "In two days, I will send some meat to Mu Bao to eat, and when the child grows up, he must eat better!"
"Don't take it, you have to take it, don't blame me for being angry with you!" Lao Mu said a little more seriously.
"I won't give it to you, give it to the child, you ask me to take it for you, and I won't take it, right? Tiancheng said to the old Mu and the two.
"Hmm!" Mu Bao agreed while eating, in his heart, he felt that having meat to eat was a good uncle.
"Just you snack!" Xiuhua said with a smile pointing at Mu Bao's forehead.
"Hey, hey!" Mu Bao grimaced at Xiuhua, didn't say much, and continued to keep sandwiching the bowl of scrambled eggs in front of him.
"It's still a child, tell the truth!" Tiancheng said as he took a sip of porridge.
The five people at the dinner table, you and I chatted word by word, and soon the two bowls of dishes were already eaten, and even the pickles that Mu Yan brought at the end were not left behind.
"You see, this meal didn't make you eat well!" Xiuhua said apologetically.
"What is good? Sister-in-law said and laughed, there is no standard for good, we don't necessarily eat good delicacies from the mountains and seas, and if you eat bran, you will be happy with pickles, which one do you say is good?" Tiancheng's words immediately made everyone at the table laugh.
"I really can't lift you, and I wonder if you're full?" Xiuhua asked with a pause and a smile.
"As far as your steamed bun is concerned, half of it is full, how can there be any reason not to eat enough!" Tiancheng's half-serious and half-joking words caused a room of people to laugh again.
Mu Yan finished cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Tiancheng and Lao Mu chatted casually about some gossip, got up and said goodbye, the silver-white moonlight made Tiancheng feel that time really passed quickly, last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, he was also like this year's Lao Mu's family, eating coarse tea and light rice, there was no spare money to improve his life, and this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, how to eat is not a problem, the season has not changed, the market has not changed, what is the change? Tiancheng thought hard, thought of the terms in "Political Economy", and came to the conclusion that it is the economy that changes.
