Chapter 42: Can You Feed Yourself?

"Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang...."

Tang Mian listened carefully to the little guy's recitation of a thousand words, and after he finished reciting, he praised him without hesitation, "Zhuang Zhuang is really great." ”

I actually memorized fifty words.

Zhuang Zhuang was praised, grinned and took two steps forward, "Mother, Zhuang Zhuang also asked Grandpa to write four words to follow, and I will write it for you." ”

"Really? All right! Tang Mian said in surprise.

Zhuang Zhuang happily walked to the table, climbed on the stool and half-knelt on it, poured water out of the kettle, and wrote on the table with the water.

Tang Mian lowered his eyes and looked at the strong movements, although the strokes were written very stiffly, but they were all written correctly.

"Zhuangzhuang, tomorrow my mother will buy you pen and ink." Tang Mian looked at the four words on the table, raised his lips and said.

The little guy shook his head, "Mother, I know very little, so I don't need to buy pen and ink." Now I use my fingers to trace first, and my grandfather said that I can also use a mound of sand to trace words. ”

He knows that pen and ink are precious and cannot be wasted.

Tang Mian's heart was slightly warm, he was really a sensible little guy.

"Good. Then when you want to use pen and ink, tell your mother, and your mother will buy it for you. ”

"However, the most important thing for you at the moment is to take care of your body, and you can't study for a long time every day, you know?"

Zhuang Zhuang raised a smile and nodded heavily, "Mother, I know." ”

Only when the body is well maintained can you not take medicine and spend less money. So, he doesn't let himself get tired and he doesn't let himself get hurt.

"That's good." Tang Mian touched his strong head and said.

The two mothers and sons were talking happily, but Lu Zheng in the yard sneezed loudly, and he couldn't hide his bad words!

Tang Mian accompanied Zhuang Zhuang to talk for a while, then went to the stove room to fetch water for the two of them to bathe, and then went to bed.

Coaxed the little guy to sleep, Tang Mian immediately entered the space. She had to hurry up and read more of the "Encyclopedia of Medicinal Materials", and she didn't know if she had missed medicinal materials along the way today.

Tang Mian devoted himself to the book, so that it was easier to remember the content inside. After deeply memorizing the ten kinds of medicinal materials, Tang Mian closed the book and went out of the space.

Unexpectedly, I really missed two medicinal materials today, and I will go to pick them first after going up the mountain tomorrow, and then walk in the opposite direction today.

Tang Mian thought about the plan to collect medicine tomorrow, and slowly fell asleep.

When the morning light was faint, Tang Mian opened his eyes. Today, the little one is going to go to the clan, and she has to get up early.

I never thought that the Li family was earlier than her.

"Mother." Tang Mian walked into the stove room to cook, and saw Li Shi holding a flint and lighting thatch.

Li Shi heard the voice and paused, raised his head and looked at Tang Mian, "Why did you get up so early?" You go to sleep for a while, and I'll make breakfast. ”

If you have a good spirit, you can go up the mountain more safely.

Tang Mian raised his feet and walked into the stove room, rolled up his sleeves, took off his shirt and put it around, "I've slept enough, I'll help you make breakfast together." ”

As he spoke, he scooped a scoop of water into the pot and began to wash it.

Seeing that Tang Mian had already started, Li was no longer reluctant and concentrated on burning the fire.

In the morning, I just cook some porridge and grab some pickles from the jar.

However, Zhuang Zhuang must be boiled an egg.

Li felt that Tang Mian was too hard to collect medicine, so he also cooked one for her.

There are a total of five hens in the house, although the weather is hot and they don't lay eggs much, but Zhuang Zhuang and Tang Mian still have enough to eat one a day.

After breakfast, Tang Mian went back to the house to change Zhuangzhuang's clothes, and Li cleaned up the stove. After cleaning up the stove room, I also went back to the house to change into clean clothes.

The family went to the ancestral hall neatly dressed.

When I arrived at the ancestral hall, it was four o'clock, and there were already many people gathered at the door.

After the fuss the night before yesterday, the people in the village wanted to come and see the child who was adopted by Tang Mian.

What's more, the opening of the ancestral hall is a big event, so it is natural to come and see it.

As soon as the family appeared, there was a small murmuring around them.

"That kid looks so thin and sick, can this be fed?"

The person next to him shook his head, "It's hard to say." ”

"Okay, Tang Mian is willing to raise it, let's not talk too much, as long as she doesn't ask us in the future."

The people around her glanced at her and didn't speak.

The man rolled his eyes and glared back with a straight face.

If she can't afford it, and she looks pitiful and begs the people in the village to borrow money, she won't borrow it.

If they don't listen to the advice to raise a sick child, what does it matter to them?

Zhang Lanhua also watched in the crowd, and moved her mouth to stab her. Her daughter-in-law, however, had learned the lesson of the previous day, and watched her movements at all times, and when she saw that she wanted to speak, she pulled her sleeve vigorously.

Feeling her daughter-in-law's movements, Zhang Lanhua turned her head to look at her, and finally closed her mouth.

The day before yesterday, she lost 300 yuan, and although no one in the family scolded her, the three daughters-in-law all complained about her.

Especially the two sons who haven't married yet, they haven't given her a good face yet.

It's no wonder you can have a good face.

The money was earned by her two sons to marry their daughters-in-law, and because of her mouth, the two sons died of heartache.

Zhang Lanhua also thought of this, swallowed her saliva with a heavy face, and swallowed all the words back.

Compared with her, Zhou Xiaohua's expression is much better.

originally thought that Tang Mian rejected Zhang Xiucai's kiss, how much of a wave could he make. Unexpectedly, it was just to adopt a sick and crooked child.

Laugh at! Tang Mian's mind is estimated to be flooded!

It's okay like this, she will have one more chance to laugh at Tang Mian in the future.

It's fun to think about, hahaha!

Of course, there are also those who are sincerely happy for Tang Mian's family.

Especially Lu Zheng's two elder brothers, they took the whole family to the ancestral hall early in the morning to guard.

At this time, Tang Mian's family had already walked to the door of the ancestral hall.

The door of the ancestral hall was wide open, and several people straightened their clothes, raised their feet and stepped over the threshold and walked in.

Today, in addition to the old patriarch, there are also several elders in the clan, who have a high reputation in the clan, and cooperate with the old patriarch to manage everything in the clan.

When the old patriarch saw that everyone had arrived, he spoke: "The main purpose of opening the ancestral hall today is to repair the family tree for Lu Yan, a new member of the Lu family. ”

"Yan Xiu, come here." The old patriarch beckoned to Zhuang Zhuang.

Zhuang Zhuang pulled his clothes, held his head high, and stepped forward with small steps generously.

"Lu Yanxiu has seen the patriarch's grandfather."

The little guy bowed down slightly, and said sweetly and crisply.

The etiquette is all taught by Tang Mian on the road. The little guy is learning and using it, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Seeing Zhuangzhuang's performance, the old patriarch touched his beard with satisfaction, and the other clan elders also nodded secretly.

"Yan Xiu, do you want to go to a private school?" The old patriarch touched his beard and asked.

Zhuang Zhuang raised his head and looked at the old patriarch, with yearning in his eyes, "Yan Xiu is willing." ”

"Oh, why?" The old patriarch asked again.
