Chapter 670 670. Two tea eggs
Zhu Xin’s egg successfully started a verbal fight in the dormitory—real saliva.
What followed was a sudden surge in sales in Song Tan's store. It’s also a shame that during this period of time, the packaging of braised food packets has not stopped. If it is sold out, it will be sold, and if it is sold out, it will be sold... Otherwise, it may be out of stock again.
For example, that summer tea, wouldn’t it be out of stock again before the Houttuynia Cordata was dried?
At this moment, Tian Tian wiped the sweat from his head and was finally willing to put down the hoe. Tian Tian on the side was still reminding him:
“Tian Tian, stop it. The teacher told you to go to class at nine o’clock before, but it’s already past nine o’clock for you.”
Tian Tian took a drink of water and now walked to the edge of the pond. He squatted down to help his sister dig up Houttuynia cordata:
“Don’t worry, I’ll do some more work. They’ve run out of this tea bag, so hurry up.”
Seeing that Tian Tian wanted to push her again, he had to add: "Teacher, they are communicating with the engineering team about water canals and roads today, and they are probably still busy at the moment."
Tian Tian then gave up.
Although the work on a hot day is hard, she also earns a lot of money. The most important thing is that it is close to home. She can get there in ten minutes by bike. Now she is full of energy every day.
At the moment, Song Tan's family is short of this Houttuynia cordata, and she has to do it until her eyes are blurry every day before going back. I heard that after a while, she can come to help with other things!
Tian Tian put the Houttuynia cordata in his hand into the basket and hesitated for a moment before asking:
“Sister, I heard that their family hires a chef for the construction site, and it costs four thousand yuan a month...Do you think our mother can come and do it?”
This summer vacation, the fields are much more mature than before, and the plans for home are also much clearer.
His sister can earn a salary of 200 yuan a day, and the family has no expenses. Although he himself has not earned any money, when he goes back to do the papers every night, he can find that his English scores are improving, and he even has a clearer idea of the direction of study. .
Tuition fees for public high schools are not expensive, and living expenses are only a few hundred yuan per month. If he persists for another two years, he will be able to work during the summer when he is admitted to college. I heard that if he works hard, he can fully cover his living expenses and tuition...
Although he had to plan step by step, Tian Ye had never felt that his life was so promising. He could even calculate clearly that he could pay off his debt in a few years at the latest!
Come again…
He pursed his lips and looked at Tian Tian, whose skin was even darker and her cheeks were red.
The family is dragging down my sister’s marriage, but...he will work harder in the future!
No, four thousand yuan is just for cooking. He knows his parents’ personalities well, so it’s hard not to be moved.
Tian Tian shook his head.
"Don't think it's just cooking, but the weather is so hot, and there are ten or twenty people eating, it's not an easy job... Our mother's body has not been fully nourished, and I know she is also worried about making money, but it's really not I’m in a hurry for a while.”
“You can’t bring this up when you go back.”
Tian Tian was silent for a while, and then said guiltily: "I just thought that our mother would be happy to know that she has work to do..."
"I know..." Tian Tian was about to say something when she heard someone calling her from the mountain:
“It’s ten o’clock, aren’t you going back yet?”
It is Sun Ziqiang, the excavator boy.
Tian Tian wiped her sweat and looked at the time: it was indeed ten o'clock. But she felt fine today, so she said loudly:
“Brother Sun, I’m not tired from this work. I’ll go back later.”
Sun Ziqiang, who had just gotten off the excavator and was almost steamed by the high temperature:…
He didn't impatiently say: "Tell you back to return, where so much nonsense? Song Tan told me to let you not stay in the ground for a long time." —You don’t want to get sick at a young age, right?”
Tian Tian was about to say something more, but when she heard the word "root of the disease", Tian Tian instantly pulled her up and grabbed the basket on the side:
“That’s right! Sister, let’s go back!”
Tian Tian couldn't laugh or cry: "Hui Hui Hui, but first let me rinse the mud from the Houttuynia cordata by the pond."
This will be more convenient and save water when cleaning when you get home.
While the siblings were talking, Sun Ziqiang, who had not seen them move for a long time on the mountain, became anxious and now strode down:
“I told you to leave, why didn’t you listen?”
Looking at the muddy Houttuynia cordata in her basket again, he understood. At this moment, he pulled the basket from Tian Tian's hand: "Hurry up. Go back after you finish it."
He was very strong and was used to working. Now he carried the basket in three or two steps to the edge of the pond, and poured the Houttuynia cordata into the water without saying a word.
The three of them squatted there, scrubbing and washing, and after a while, they fished out another basket full of water.
Tian Tian is still a little embarrassed:
“Sorry to trouble you, you have a hard job yourself and you still want to help us.”
“What’s the point?” She was so polite, which made Sun Ziqiang feel a little uncomfortable. He scratched his head:
"Every household is in trouble. Although your family is in debt, but you are a good person, the debt will be repaid one day, right? You can't rush this matter. If you rush, your body will collapse, and that will be more than the gain is worth the loss."
As he spoke, he dug into his trouser pocket and pulled out a plastic bag with two tea eggs in it -
“Here, Song Tan will give you something to eat.”
ah?
Tian Tian was really touched: "We..."
The salary she received was not low, and Tianye even got a tutor for free, and now she had to eat other people's food... Even though they only had two eggs, Tian Tian had seen the marinated buns in their shop, twenty-one of them, a tea The cost of eggs starts at two yuan!
Thinking of this, she felt more and more that she was right to work hard.
After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Sun Ziqiang's impatient urging eyes, then stretched out his hand and took the two tea eggs.
While walking, I split the eggs with Tian Tian. The eggshell is peeled off, and light brown lines are spread all over the white and tender eggs. After one bite, the rich aroma of marinated meat and eggs blend together, and the empty stomach is satisfied, and the vague dizziness before seems to have subsided.
Pick up the water cup in the basket and take a sip. The feeling of satiety is so good!
After all, the two siblings worked hard. They got up at dawn in the morning to make breakfast, then went to Song Tan, and went back at noon...
After this morning’s hard work, I am indeed very hungry.
With this in mind, Tian Tian specially thanked Song Tan:
“Song Tan, you are so kind...Thank you for the tea eggs.”
“But don’t give it to me tomorrow. I didn’t think well before. Let’s boil some eggs at home tomorrow morning and bring them over. Our food is expensive, so it would be a waste to give it to us.”
Song Tan:…? ? ?
Looking at Sun Ziqiang's anxious expression on the side, she understood instantly.
I envy everyone who writes ancient Chinese characters in real name, and the pictures of ancient Chinese characters produced by AI (especially the heroines who are not 10) are so beautiful that I am jealous! !
I was delayed in looking at the sofa tonight... I plan to send the sofa back to my hometown, and I need to buy another one. Do readers of Magnum recommend any reliable online stores or styles? (Cheaper! Be careful! Don’t spend more than 5,000. In fact, my budget is only 3,000. You don’t want to be a royal concubine in a small apartment.)
