Chapter 31 Be Responsive and Helpful
Gao Shuzhen was washing the dishes in the kitchen, and suddenly heard someone shouting outside the door: Is Shuzhen's sister-in-law at home?
She immediately heard that it was Matoya's voice, and went to open the door as she promised:
"Toya, when did you come back from the pastoral?"
Toya: I only got home last night.
"Gotta go for a day, right?" Gao Shuzhen asked with concern.
"No, Lehrer is slow."
"Lele car? Why do you still use a Lehrer car? It's bumpy and slow. β
"Hey, don't mention it. I had planned to leave early that day, not wanting to take Asgen with me. This bastard boy secretly let go of the rubber-tyred car the night before, and Agina thought it was pricked, but now the sticky tires are not in a hurry, so he put on the Lele car. β
Gao Shuzhen laughed after hearing this, and even said that Asgen's little thing was too smart.
"What's smart, I have a belly and crooked eyes. This kid is so angry that he can kill someone. β
"Tao boy, out of a good one. The more he digs, the more it shows that his head is lively. β
"Praise him like that. It makes me sad. β
Gao Shuzhen turned the topic to Toya and said: Toya, you are so amazing, it is a day to walk from the pastoral point to home. I don't even dare to walk in the grassland by myself.
Toya smiled and said, "The Mongols are used to it.
Gao Shuzhen: Then you are really good, not a sister-in-law's sycophant...... Look at me, patronizing and talking, hurry up and sit in the house.
Gao Shuzhen wiped her hands with an apron and led Toya into the back room.
Toya: Brother Tian Fa is not at home?
"I'm going to the pastor."
"Oh."
Gao Shuzhen's living and eating habits are a little like the locals, she brought dairy products and fried fruit sticks, and said: Eat some. The milk tea may be cold, I'll go hot again.
Toya grabbed Gao Shuzhen and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be busy, I've drunk it at home." My mom just told me you were looking for me.
Gao Shuzhen sat on the edge of the kang and said: If you talk about it, I will be embarrassed. Some time ago, I rummaged through the cabinets and found the two pieces of cloth and some colored threads left from the past. I thought about embroidering a TV curtain, but I couldn't understand it halfway through the embroidery.
Toya glanced around the room, saw the curtain on the TV, and stepped forward.
Gao Shuzhen blushed and said: That's it, I embroidered it myself, I really can't hold it in front of you.
Toya: It's fine. The embroidery is very good, but the color of these flowers is not well matched, and it does not look bright.
Gao Shuzhen: That's right. I wanted to wait for you to come back and help me, but when I thought you were quite busy and tired, I got it myself.
Toya smiled and said, "It's time to practice." Sister-in-law, give me the rest of the cloth and thread, and I'll embroider it for you.
Gao Shuzhen: Farewell, you're too busy. There is a big mess at home, and you still have to worry about the pastoral, how can you have spare time?
Toya: It's okay, I'll finish embroidering when I have time. Besides, when I embroider, you have time to go over, and I can tell you about some stitches and color combinations.
Gao Shuzhen: That'sβthank you then. To tell the truth, this curtain is covered on the TV, and your Tian Fage almost threw it twice, saying that he looked at it like a rag. Ha ha......
Toya laughed.

In the past few days, Matoya put down the embroidery she was going to bring to Naadam to sell, and concentrated on helping Gao Shuzhen embroider the TV curtain. When she sent the embroidered curtain, Gao Shuzhen held it in her hand and liked it so much that she wanted to kiss it.
Gao Shuzhen: Toya, your hand is the hand of the Weaver Girl in the sky. Seeing that this flower is embroidered just like the real thing, I can smell the fragrance.
Toya smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you can praise it." This is the smell of soap, I washed it after embroidery.
Gao Shuzhen: I also said, this is really godly, why is it so fragrant. Look at my "rag" again, haha, it's time to throw it away this time.
Toya smiled. She never helped people in return, but when she was in great trouble, there were many people who lent a helping hand. This is the embodiment of the connotation of the proverb that the herdsmen on the Peacock Ping grassland often say, "borrow milk to return butter, borrow donkeys to return horses".
After helping Gao Shuzhen embroider the curtain, Matoya felt like fulfilling a wish and returning a favor, feeling very relaxed. She took out her work again, stitch by stitch carefully. Matoya is such a "transparent" person, as long as someone asks for it, she will definitely try her best to help. However, if someone provokes her, they will definitely say that they will turn their faces.
Naren Tuya loves her daughter very much, and after watching her embroider for a long time, she reminds her to take a break. She pushed Toya and pointed to her eyes at the right time, which meant that the embroidery work was the most eye-consuming, so don't wear out your eyes.
Toya looked up at her mother and shook her head slightly, meaning "it's okay". The silent communication is the tacit understanding of the mother and daughter.
Toya shook her head, suddenly felt that her neck was a little rusty, and consciously and unconsciously stopped what she was doing and reached out to rub it. Naren Tuya saw it in her eyes and hurriedly stepped forward to help her daughter massage her.
Toya: Mom, no, it's fine.
Maybe the little mother didn't hear the voice, or maybe the old man heard it and ignored it, and continued to massage her daughter's cervical spine with moderate strength. Toya closed her eyes, two tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.
Asgen, who was playing poker with his grandfather, secretly watched his grandmother massage his mother with the rest of his eyes......

Looking forward to the stars and the moon, the money from the sale of wool has finally arrived.
Every year after shearing the wool, Matoya basically sells it to the same traders, and it is all for cash. This year, the trafficker had a problem with cash flow, so he discussed with Toya whether he could take credit. Of course, it's not in vain, and the price is increased by three cents per kilogram, and Toya agrees when she thinks there is an account. For this reason, Ma Erdemutu complained that his daughter was too arbitrary: "You can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to defend people", if this kid runs away, where do you find him? Toya replied at the time: First, we can't run with this little money, and we don't have enough money for the journey. The second is that I have dealt with him in the past few years, and I also understand that he does not smash scales or reduce prices, and he is not the kind of person who forgets his righteousness for profit.
After all, if the money doesn't arrive, you have to worry about it after all. No, the vendor's capital turnover has been open for a moment, and he will come over to repay the money immediately. Toya was cooking dinner, counting the brand-new bills, and the whole family was smiling.
Asgen's concern now is not about his good food and new clothes, but about the new motorcycle that his mother once promised. Seeing that his mother was happy, he asked eagerly: Mom, is it time to buy a new motorcycle for Dad?
Toya immediately became serious and said angrily: Motorcycle, day by day, you know motorcycle? How can this money be enough to buy a motorcycle? Don't buy it!
When Toya said this, she was stunned, looked at her daughter inexplicably, and wondered: Toya has changed her hexagram? And it was good just now, why did it change like a person?
When Asgen heard that he didn't buy a motorcycle, he pouted so aggrieved that tears were about to fall......
