Chapter 937: An aunt who has worked hard all her life
Tian Xiaonuan first went to her grandmother Cao's to sit for a while, and talked to her grandmother for a while, and when she came back today, she and her mother didn't buy anything, so they bought some seasonal fresh fruits, and the rest was to buy a big bag of sugar.
Cao's perennial medicine, especially a pill called digoxin, every time he ate it was very bitter, the conditions were not good before, Zhang Laohan could only buy some rock candy for his wife, smashed it into small pieces, and put it in the glass case above the old-fashioned combination cabinet.
Every time Tian Xiaonuan came to her grandmother's house to play, or occasionally lived at her grandmother's house for a period of time, her grandmother would secretly take out a few pieces of her rock candy for Tian Xiaonuan to eat, and she would not eat sugar when she took medicine herself.
Sometimes there are fruit candy wrapped in candy paper, white rabbit toffee or something, so Tian Xiaonuan has remembered sugar since she was a child, and she feels that eating sweet things is the happiest time.
Tian Xiaonuan peeled a fruit candy filled with oranges for her grandmother, and when she saw that her grandmother was tired after talking for a while, she took her two younger sisters out.
"Xiaojiao, my sister washed fruit for you to eat. Tian Xiaonuan went to the yard with her sisters, and everything they ate was put under the eaves.
Tian Xiaonuan bought these fruits in an imported supermarket, bought a few boxes of blueberries, two boxes of strawberries, three large mangoes, and two boxes of red strawberries, and two boxes of red strawberries.
Tian Xiaonuan watched for a while and then ate, washed a box of blueberries, half a box of strawberries, and picked up a big mango to the kitchen.
"Mom, get me a knife, I'll peel the mango. "There are three daughters of Zhang Laohan crowded in the kitchen, and people can't turn around, but the three sisters of the Zhang family have a good relationship, huddle together to cook and talk by the way.
"You can bring this plate and eat it, and I'll cut the mango and take it later." Tian Xiaonuan took her two younger sisters in, and the kitchen was completely blocked, and it really couldn't accommodate so many people.
"I'm not going, I'm standing at the door with Sister Xiaoyue. Wu Xiaojiao didn't want to go over, she was the youngest, one of her two brothers was eleven years old, and the other was six years old, and she didn't see much on weekdays, so she really didn't have anything to say.
Tian Xiaoyue also said: "I sat in the yard with my sister, there was no wind in the yard, sister, you got yours, I want to eat when I get it." ”
Tian Xiaoyue was actually reluctant to take such an expensive fruit to the two elder brothers to eat, especially that Zheng Bo, like a pig, such an expensive fruit, he could eat it in two bites, thinking of this, Tian Xiaoyue turned sideways and whispered: "Xiaojiao, let's sit on our backs." ”
Wu Xiaojiao is also older now, and when she saw Sister Xiaoyue's back to the hall, she immediately understood, and the two of them held a pot of blueberries and strawberries and ate them.
"Auntie, how is your body lately, I don't think you look good, it seems that the wind and sun are blowing every day, and your waist is bent more than before. ”
"Auntie is old, whoever is old will bend her waist, and besides, they are all rural people, how can there be people who don't do things, it's not like this every day, the spring wind is too strong, this is blowing. ”
Zhang Guilan's words, Tian Mu and Zhang Guihua couldn't say anything except that they were a little distressed, they could only feel sorry that the eldest sister was still in the countryside, the countryside is like this, everything that can move does things, if it weren't for illness, they wouldn't rest at all.
"Sister, you also dye your hair, you are full of white hair, you look too old. Zhang Guihua said, her words made Zhang Guilan's eyes darken.
Tian Xiaonuan knew everything in her previous life, when her aunt borrowed money in her previous life, she told everything about the family and her original locality, when she built a house for her eldest son, Zheng Yun had money to survive, but he just refused to take it out, so he borrowed money from relatives back then.
borrowed money to build a house, Zheng Yunsheng said that the rest of the money should be given to his son and daughter-in-law, and the two sons would give a dowry, which is a lot, so the money can't be moved, but the account has to be repaid, Zhang Guilan went out day and night to do things in order to pay off the family's arrears as soon as possible.
The most often go to the brick factory in the neighboring village, carrying bricks for three cents, carrying hundreds or thousands of dollars a day, earning dozens of yuan, sometimes recruiting some old sisters-in-law to do greening, planting trees and grass, giving fifty yuan a day, this is a good errand, Zhang Guilan will go as long as there is this kind of work.
No matter which work is particularly costly, the back brick waist must be supported to give force, people can not shake, broken bricks have to pay, the back is hard at the end of the day.
And the work of greening and planting trees and laying turf, the waist is bent for a day, Zhang Guilan can't stand it, so she straightens up and takes a breath, and she has to work immediately if she can't rest for a while, otherwise the boss thinks you are lazy, and I don't want you to go next time, this thing is much easier than carrying bricks, but the waist can't bear it, so her waist is more and more bent.
"Sister, you still do less at home, rest more, you said that you are not in good health, you are really tired and sick, and it is the children who are affected, right, you look at doing less now, as long as your health is good, it is for the children to save." "Tian's mother was also very distressed when she saw her eldest sister today.
"Well, I know, I know it in my body. ”
"Auntie, you lied, you didn't tell the truth. Tian Xiaonuan cut the mango and said suddenly.
Zhang Guilan was stunned for a moment, "Xiao Nuan, auntie...... What are you lying about?"
Tian Xiaonuan went out to take the mango to the two younger sisters, turned around and came in to cover the small wooden door of the kitchen, pulled the aunt over from the stove, looked at the aunt's eyes and said softly: "Auntie, you are definitely overworked like this, you tell me, what are you doing outside now?"
Zhang Guilan was shocked, she didn't know where her niece saw the flaws, and said a little weakly: "No...... No, my aunt really didn't do anything, you haven't seen my aunt for a long time, so I feel that my aunt is much older. ”
"No, sister, you have been aging fast for most of the past six months, what's the matter, if he Zheng Yunsheng dares to come, I have to ask him well. Zhang Guihua's stubborn temper came up.
"Auntie, you really don't say it. Tian Xiaonuan is a little uncomfortable, the aunt has been suffering all her life, making money for the family, and when the old uncle is still spending outside, the eldest son Zheng Tao is not filial, Tian Xiaonuan will not let these people have a good time, whoever bullies the aunt, she will seek justice for the aunt.
"If you don't say it, I can guess that there is a brick factory in your neighboring village, are you going to carry bricks again. ”
Zhang Guilan's face changed, the two younger sisters saw that their sister was like this, and they really went to carry bricks, Tian's mother was angry and distressed, "Sister, you are not in good health, the lumbar disc herniation is terrible, what did the doctor tell you when you came out of the hospital last time, you still go to carry bricks, are you making money and dying." ”
For most of the past six months, Tian's mother has seen through everything, and every day she goes to the hospital to see the girl lying there, like a vegetative person, and she deeply understands that as long as she is healthy, it is more important than anything else.
"Auntie, not only do you carry bricks, but your waist is bent like this, what else are you doing? If you don't say anything, I will go to my aunt and my uncle. ”
These words made Zhang Guilan panic.
