Tian Dalin, who was placing the water tank, hurriedly straightened up and said, "Grandma, why are you here, so far away, your feet hurt again." ”
"I'm not worried if I don't come." Tian Wu said, put the basket on his arm on the ground, sat on the edge of the bed, and said to Tian Dalin angrily: "Linzi, I told your father to let you move to the east wing." Your fourth aunt agrees, why do you have to move to this open field?! I don't even have a neighbor, who are you calling for something to do at night?! ”
Tian Dalin smiled awkwardly, "I've only lived here for more than a month." I built up the simple house during this time and moved back. Since there is something to say, it's better to avoid it. ”
"What do you say, do you believe it too?" Tian Wu looked at Tian Dalin, and then at Tian Qingqing, "Linzi, it's not me who provokes the relationship between your sister and brother, people outside say that this is your second sister colluding with Hu Banxian to frame Qingqingli." She felt ashamed, had nightmares at night, and vented her anger on Qingqing. People also say that if Qingqing does not die, there will be blessings. He must be a rich and noble man in the future. ”
"Grandma, don't you believe I'm a broomstick?" When Tian Qingqing heard this, she aroused the grievances in her heart again, and couldn't help shedding tears.
"I don't believe it. Pure nonsense. Tian Wu said, took Tian Qingqing in his arms, and said to Tian Dalin and Hao Lanxin: "I have thought about it in my heart, since Qingqing was born to the present, no one in our courtyard has died. Who do you think she's beating?! People say that they have never heard of a person who is hard-fated and brought back to life. ”
"Grandma, that's what I thought too. But my mother believes it, and I can't help it. Tian Dalin said dejectedly.
Tian Qingqing saw Tian Wu and Tian Dalin say this, and felt even more aggrieved, lying in Tian Wu's arms, choked and said: "Grandma, I'm not a broom star." After saying that, he burst into tears.
Tian Wu hurriedly picked up Tian Qingqing's little face and said kindly: "Qingqing doesn't cry, Qingqing is not a broom star, it's all nonsense from Hu Banxian." Qingqing, do you know what kind of big thing you did at noon yesterday? ”
Seeing this, Tian Qingqing stopped crying and looked at Tian Wu with a pair of teary eyes.
"Qingqing, you can penetrate Hu Banxian's nest at noon yesterday. Now people on the street say that her oil pot must not be full of oil, and she doesn't know what to use to fool people out of money? If it's oil, it's going to be open, and it's not going to blow up your little hands?! In the future, people will never believe her again. Tian Wu said to Tian Qingqing with a smile.
Tian Qingqing nodded at Tian Wu with tears in her eyes.
"Qingqing, tell grandma, why do you dare to put your hand in the oil pot?"
"She (Hu Banxian) asks for twenty yuan, but I don't have it at home, I ...... I...... I don't want my mother to borrow it again. ”
Tian Qingqing pouted and said.
Tian Qingqing knew the secret in the oil pot, but she couldn't say it. Not for Hu Banxian, but for herself - if a seven-year-old child exposes the false tricks of witches and gods, and is not regarded as a demon?!
"You're doing the right thing this time." Tian Wu continued: "But you can't do this in the future, no matter what happens, you have to protect your body from injury." In case the pot is boiling oil, your little hands will be gone. ”
Tian Qingqing bit her lower lip and nodded.
Tian Wu looked around the house, and when he saw the narrow, he couldn't help frowning and shaking his head, and said to Tian Dalin and his wife: "Lin Zi and Lin Zi's family, I don't disapprove of you being separated. Each has its own household, and it can also raise a pig to feed a few chickens, and it is money to sell it. But now is not the time, the green and yellow are not connected, there are few things, and then divided into two stoves, it is even more difficult to scratch. Ahem, your mother, I don't know what I'm stuck with?! ”
After Tian Wu finished speaking, he bent down and lifted the drawer cloth covering the basket, took out the six nest heads and two plates of stir-fried vegetables brought inside, half a bottle of vegetable oil and a small bag of pickle gnocchi, and put them on the front table beside him.
"Grandma, what are you doing here? How many can you have one mouthful? Hao Lanxin held Tian Miaomiao with one hand, stopped Tian Wu with the other and said, "You can take back this half bottle of oil, we can't fry vegetables." “
"It's nothing. Considering that you have just moved here, the stove is wet, and you can't cook. You can make a soup and eat it. Children are growing their bodies, and they can't do without oil and water. It will take another ten days and a half for the wild vegetables to come down, and you will have to buy some fresh vegetables for the children to stir-fry and eat! Tian Wu said.
"Grandma, there are a lot of mothers-in-law growing on the edge of the yard, and the big ones are so big." Tian Qingqing said, took out the dandelion leaves in his coat pocket, and put them in front of Hao Lanxin and Tian Wu: "You see, they have grown so big, I have time to dig them up to cook and eat." ”
"Mother-in-law can eat it too?" Tian Dalin asked on the side.
"I can eat it." Tian Wu said: "I have eaten in the past. However, it is difficult to choose and wash. Its five-pronged strands grow in the soil and have to be dug with a sickle. I have to choose one leaf at a time, and there is a lot of soil on it, and there are dead grass and leaves or something, and it takes a lot of effort. People are willing to look for koji cabbage, turruginic acid, pengkeya or something, and generally don't eat it. ”
Tian Qingqing has a black line: No one eats such a good thing?!
Think about it, life is difficult during this period, and people's goal is to eat a full stomach and not pay attention to scientific diet. The wild vegetables eaten are also the most common and best picked varieties that grow in the field.
"You don't have much firewood. I have a lot of charcoal (bituminous coal) there, so you go and carry a few baskets of wood, and burn them first. There is nowhere to collect firewood in the big spring. Tian Wu said again.
"I'm going to cut a few red thorns and chop them off. Grandma, not much is missing. Tian Dalin said.
"The red thorns are hard to split and burn, and it takes that effort. I'll buy it again when the charcoal is burned, and it won't cost a few dollars. Tian Wu insisted: "Also, you come to my house to pull a larger water tank." A family of six, there is food (water) and washing (water), where is there enough water for a load of water?! ”
"No, I don't. Grandma, I'll just be a little more diligent. ”
"Lin Zi, did you treat grandma as an outsider?" Tian Wu was a little angry: "You have been carrying water for me since you were fifteen years old, and you have been carrying it for more than ten years, and I will give you a saliva tank, which is still a little surplus?!" It's so far away from the village, what should I do when it's windy and rainy? You can't let your daughter-in-law catch the rain and cook, can you? ”
Tian Dalin sneered, bowing his head? The head.
It seems that Tian Wu is telling the truth. Tian Qingqing heard her mother say in her previous life that her father had been in charge of the three families since he was fifteen years old: his grandmother's house, the fifth grandmother's house and the second aunt's house. until they fall on the way to carry water.
