Chapter Seventy-One: Changes in the Tian Family

Liu Tiezhu recuperated in Tian's house for about a month, and the injuries on his body were already healed, and he was no longer lying on the bed. If it weren't for Tian Meihua's address, it would have been alive and kicking up a long time ago, but Liu Tiezhu was a person who couldn't be idle. And this more than a month, Liu Tiezhu asked to go home many times and was stopped by the Li family, the Li family has not seen the little daughter for a long time, this time Liu Tiezhu recuperated from his injuries, but he must not stay at home for a long time, usually there is no such opportunity.

If this daughter who married out of ancient times lived in her mother's house for a long time, she would be gossipy, and she usually didn't have this opportunity, so the Li family took this opportunity to not let Liu Tiezhu go home early, and Liu Tiezhu had to heal the injuries on his body before allowing them to go back, in fact, Liu Tiezhu understood that Li wanted Tian Meihua to live at home for a few more days, so he used him as an excuse, and during this time, his injuries did not fall off except for the scar on his chest, and nothing else was hindered.

However, Liu Tiezhu's decision was not because of Li's strong retention, in Liu Tiezhu's opinion, although his daughter-in-law's maiden home is good, it is not as good as his own home, the reason why he stayed was to see his daughter-in-law also didn't want to leave, and wanted to stay for a few more days, so he also followed Li's family, after all, Meihua has not returned to her parents' house for many years. Generally speaking, Liu Tiezhu felt sorry for his daughter-in-law and decided to stay in the Tian family.

In previous years, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, I always saw Meihua sitting by the door and looking in the direction of Tian's house, Liu Tiezhu knew that she was missing her mother's home, and every time she saw her like this, she always had to persuade her, but Tian Meihua was homesick but did not want to go back. Liu Tiezhu knew that Tian Meihua was afraid of Tianjiacun's message, and he was afraid that he would be pointed at after he went back. I think that when he went to greet his relatives, there were still people gossiping behind his back, no wonder Meihua didn't want to go back.

Now the daughter-in-law has finally figured it out. Willing to go back to his parents' house, Liu Tiezhu is happy, for a few years of living alone, he likes the Tian family very much lively days, although a little less comfortable than staying at home, but he is still very willing to accompany Tian Meihua to live in the Tian family for a longer period of time, especially his son Dabao, who is well fed and clothed in the Tian family, and has several sisters to take care of. I don't want to go home when I play with him, and Liu Tiezhu, who watched it, felt that his son was about to become a member of the Tian family.

However, for Liu Tiezhu, who has come to Tian's house once in addition to welcoming relatives, Tian Meihua has obviously found that her mother's family has changed greatly in the Tian family this month, although the house is still the same house, and even the room has not changed, Daddy and Auntie still live next door to the hall, and the house still has the mark of the compartment when she was not married; I haven't been back for two years, and even the mark is very kind. The eldest brother and sister-in-law, the second brother and the second sister-in-law, the third brother and the third sister-in-law, and the fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law still live in a separate house with several nieces. Even the personalities of several relatives have not changed much.

Daddy still doesn't talk much all day long; A-Niang still can't escape her eyes; Although the sister-in-law has been pregnant for a few months, her personality is still refreshing; The second sister-in-law is still shrewd, the third sister-in-law is always gentle, and the fourth sister-in-law is usually silent, but she is always indispensable at critical moments; As for the elder brothers, there is little change. still loves her as much as she did when she was a child, thinks about her in everything, and she hasn't been home for two years. nor was he alienated from her; The nieces have grown a lot taller after not seeing each other for two years, and now they can help the family work. Seeing her aunt, she was very affectionate, hugging her legs and holding her aunt.

The kitchen is still full of bottles and jars. No more, no less, even the brush for brushing the pot is still the same as when Tian Meihua left.

If you want to say that the biggest change in the Tian family belongs to the family, it is not a sad look, and everyone has a smile on their faces; Then the life of the family is better, regardless of food and clothing.

Daddy and Auntie's face is not always sad, worried that the food for the coming year will not be enough, Tian Meihua seems that Daddy and Auntie even have less white hair; The four brothers are no longer the same as they were at the beginning, but after a winter of cultivation, they have all grown new flesh on their bodies, they look a lot fatter, and they are also very strong, and they always have smiles on their faces; The four sisters-in-law had ruddy faces, were in a good mood, and looked several years younger, but when she got married, her face was sallow, and she frowned all day long, looking sick. A few babies are also, who were thin and small at the beginning, with no two flesh and yellow hair, and their ruddy little faces and black bright hair are not comparable at all.

The neat bunk on the bed is a new quilt, and the old quilt has long been used as a mattress, and everyone is wearing new cotton clothes and new cotton shoes. Even when the three of them arrived at the Tian family, A-Niang instructed several sisters-in-law to make a new set of clothes, and several sisters-in-law also enthusiastically made a pair of new shoes for each person, and Dabao made several pieces. Tian Meihua thought of before she got married, every winter night because there was no new quilt, she was so cold that she couldn't sleep, she couldn't stand it, and she chatted with several sisters-in-law crowded on the big kang; and when he got married, in order to collect a dowry for himself, several brothers had to go out to do hard labor, and Daddy went out to borrow money, and his heart was sour, and now his mother's family has finally come out.

The bottles and cans in the kitchen no longer always leave some bottle bottoms, but now they are all full, there are almost a lot of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and even half a bottle of wine in the wine bottle, although Daddy and the four brothers are not good at drinking. Even Ah Niang still has a collection of half a bag of tea, Gu Tian Meihua understands that this tea is a good thing, and it is worth a lot of money. There is no longer gruel without oil and salt at home, except for gruel and pickles in the morning, almost every meal is white rice, and the vegetable leaves are not salted pickles, and you can see meat almost every other meal, either meat or chicken, duck or fish. There is a lot of bacon hanging from the eaves of the kitchen.

The house is also fed with chickens and ducks, and there is a fish pond dug outside the house to raise fish. I heard that a batch of chickens and ducks were sold a year ago, and the fish has been supplied to large families, and there were two pigs fed at home, but they were all sold by A-Niang, and only the pig's legs were left at home, which became the table dish of the Tian family, and there were hundreds of eggs and duck eggs in the wooden barrels at home.

There is also a shed built behind the kitchen, Tian Meihua once went in, not to mention the seedlings that have grown green, it is the same temperature as the spring inside, all make Tian Meihua sigh, this is really amazing, her Xiaobao is not even willing to come out, the neat seedlings are about to be able to go to the field, although the Liu family has no field, but so many years in the Tian family is not in vain, Tian Meihua saw at a glance that the seedlings were about to go to the field, Daddy looked at these seedlings all day long, Tian Meihua heard that her six nieces seemed to be going to make double-cropping rice, and she heard that this greenhouse was also built by her on the idea, so she couldn't help but be impressed by the summer solstice. There are also vegetable seeds sown on the summer solstice on the side, and now they are all old and tall, and they can already be cooked.

A-Niang once secretly told her that now the family is not only five acres of land in the village, but also bought a hundred acres of land in the Xu family, and the family has almost a few days to get into the account, a few little babies and four sisters-in-law are learning embroidery, and they have also received the work of embroidery, and each family has at least a dozen deposits. Even a few nieces have several silver cars in their hands, which is to explain to Tian Meihua why Tian Xiaoman can buy Liu Dabao some snacks from time to time.

As for the ginseng and five hundred taels of silver in Xia Zhi's hand, Li didn't say it, after all, there were dozens of silver cars in the family to talk about the past, and it was difficult to ensure that the little daughter didn't have any ideas in her heart, the most important thing for the family and Lele, and the things that moved people's hearts with money Li had also seen a lot, so Li kept these for Tian Meihua. Tian Meihua only knew that the life-saving ginseng that Lu Dao Tian Laosi took out to Liu Tiezhu, so she was surprised, only that her family suddenly found it at the bottom of the mountain, of course, Tian Meihua didn't know that the ginseng in Lu Dao was two hundred years old, otherwise she wouldn't think that it was dug up by the Tian family in the mountains, after all, it was not that no one had dug up the ginseng in the mountains for ten years.

It's just that Tian Meihua can't think clearly, she has been married for more than two years, and several elder brothers went to see her when Dabao was born, and although the clothes they wore at that time were not patched, they were also dusty. Tian Meihua knew that it had been worn by several brothers for many years, and they were usually reluctant to wear it at all, so they kept it for relatives or when they went to the street. That's right, they are still in a situation of not having enough to eat and keep warm, Daddy and Auntie are still worried about selling the family's land to pay off their debts, and the family will not have enough food to eat in the coming year, although her life is not very good, but she still asked Dabao and his father to divide half of the family's prey and give it to the eldest brother to bring back.

It's only been a little over a year now, and my mother's family has no worries about food and drink, and she still has savings. Seeing the Tian family like this now, to be honest, Tian Meihua used to feel uncomfortable in her heart, if when that happened, the family was also this scene, presumably it would not make people point fingers so much, but then I thought about it, if the family was in a good situation at the beginning, she would not marry Dabao and his father, and I don't know what kind of life it will be when the time comes, but Tian Meihua is sure that there is definitely no comfort as it is now, and Tian Meihua, who has figured it out, is only happy that the Tian family's family has become better.

Her mother's family is rich, and her face is also bright when she marries out of the girl, not to mention that several nieces are still teaching her to tie the knot, and the sisters-in-law are also teaching her embroidery, and let her take all the things that are done to her mother's house. Tian Meihua believes that it won't be long before she can buy some fields, and then Dabao's father will never go up the mountain again, and she won't have to worry about it all day long.
