Chapter 186 Lively
Because of having a bicycle, Tian Shao returned to the county seat after having breakfast and helping with homework for half an hour.
Li Guihua sent Tian Shao out, and immediately called her husband to find Captain Tian with money. Hearing that the two were here to pay off the debts, Captain Tian said that there was no rush, and that it would be fine to deduct the money and food directly when they waited for the distribution.
Patted himself on the head, Li Guihua said: "Oh, look, I forgot about it in such a hurry."
However, Tian Dalin felt that this matter should not be delayed, and said: "Since we are here, we should pay back the money, so as to save everyone from making irresponsible remarks. Brother Northwest, I won't hide it from you, the money that was paid back was given by that surname Shi." Compensation. It’s just that this matter should not be spread, if someone asks about it, I hope you can help cover it up.”
Captain Tian couldn't understand, and asked, "Why are you so eager to pay back the money?"
Before he was stuck with the money and didn't pay it back, but now he is in a panic, and he doesn't believe it's okay. .
Li Guihua pretended to be angry and said: "It's not my big girl who caused the trouble. She went to the provincial capital last week on business, who would want to bring back a radio yesterday. She said that her father stays at home every day and doesn't stop by to worry about him being bored. After buying the radio, she can listen to the radio to pass the time. To buy the radio, she even borrowed money from Director Li. You said, it’s a waste of money if you have two dollars!"
Captain Tian was also a little surprised, but thinking of Tian Shao's behavior of protecting Tian Dalin before, it is also reasonable: "It's just that this radio is not only expensive, but also requires a ticket. Where did you get the ticket?"
Radio tickets are also hard to get. His eldest son bought his radio with great effort. Of course, radios were much harder to buy six or seven years ago than they are now.
Tian Dalin said with a smile: "The radio was crushed when it was carried, and it is a defective product. The price is much cheaper if you don't need a ticket. Da Ya thought it was a good deal, so I gritted my teeth and bought it."
Captain Tian’s daughter-in-law immediately asked, “How much cheaper is it?”
The husband and wife have already discussed it, and this matter cannot be told the truth, otherwise it will not only be hated by people, but it may even be asked to come to the door. So the husband and wife agreed that it was twenty yuan cheaper.
It was 20 yuan cheaper and there was no ticket required. Captain Tian and his wife felt that they had taken advantage of it. The captain's daughter-in-law asked directly: "You have to have someone like this to buy it. Do you know anyone in the department store?"
Li Guihua smiled and said: "Officer Li helped. Her second aunt has relatives who work in the department store, so she took care of her."
The captain’s daughter-in-law felt that Tian Shao was really lucky to know Director Li. In the past few months, Director Li gave Tian’s family so many good things, she was so envious.
After paying back the money, Tian Dalin asked Erya to go into the mountain after returning home.
Li Guihua was moving a bench to wash in the yard, but Tian Shao muttered at dinner yesterday that the stool at home was sticky and he didn't know how to wash it.
Sanya has been busy learning how to make clothes from Narcissus recently. Recently, Li Guihua has been doing housework. She feels ashamed when she hears this. No, today I started to clean up.
"Osmanthus, osmanthus..."
Li Guihua knew it was Aunt Fat just by hearing the voice. She opened the door and asked with a smile, "Why are you free to visit today?"
Aunt Fat smiled and said, "I heard that Da Ya went to the provincial capital on a business trip and bought a radio for your Dalinzi. Is it true?"
This is Tian Shao's reluctance to spread the news about his book writing for the time being, and it will take three days for everyone in Hongqi Commune to know about it. It's okay to publish normally, but if something goes wrong, it will become the laughing stock of the entire commune.
Li Guihua scolded with a smile: "You are really well-informed about this news, you know it so soon. Come, I will take you to see it."
Not only showed Aunt Fat, but also opened it for her to listen to. Coincidentally, a section of Huangmei Opera happened to be played. The female lead's voice was melodious and mellow, and the two couldn't help but sit down and listen.
The two of them heard Aunt Qin's voice outside, Li Guihua was a little annoyed but went to open the door anyway. When I came in, it happened that the heroine was singing there: "In order to save Li Lang from his home, who would have thought that he would be number one in the imperial list..."
Aunt Qin snorted and said, "What are you singing, the voice is really nice."
Li Guihua beckoned her to sit down, and said, "I don't know what the song is singing, but I just let it play because it sounds good. Aunt Qin, what's the matter with you?"
She has a bad temper and loves to swear, and there are not many close relationships, so there are very few people in the family who come to visit. Like Aunt Qin, she had never come to her house before, but she came here today because of the radio.
Aunt Qin smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just heard that Da Ya bought you a radio, so I came to have a look. Ah, this is the radio that Da Ya bought? It's so beautiful, but why is the lower right corner recessed?" What about one piece?"
Li Guihua said cheerfully: "It's good to have it recessed, because it's recessed, so you don't need a ticket and it's 20 yuan cheaper. Otherwise, my eldest sister won't be able to buy it even if she thinks about being filial to her father."
Aunt Qin only heard that their family bought a radio, but she didn’t know the allusion: “Why is it so much cheaper without tickets?”
Li Guihua said proudly: "Because it's a defective product! But it's also because the after-sales clerk in the department store is a relative of Mrs. Li's second aunt, so my aunt got a big bargain."
Aunt Fat interjected: "Da Ya also bought cotton shoes for Da Linzi and Osmanthus fragrans. The cashmere used in the shoes is extremely warm. I just tried it on, and I don't want to take it off after I put it on."
The people who came to visit in the morning never stopped, and it was so lively that they didn't disperse until it was time to make lunch.
Li Guihua had never been so happy. Not only did Siya and Wuya come back late, she didn't scold them, but she also kindly told them to wash their hands and eat.
Although I don't know the reason, I am very happy to have food for the two of them when I go home without being scolded.
Tian Dalin and Erya arrived at Uncle Li's house at 10:30. Grandma Li puts on the shoes as soon as she gets them, not to mention how happy she is after putting them on: "These shoes are really warm to wear, darling, this child is so caring."
It’s much colder in the mountains than outside. After winter, the old lady basically stays on the kang and doesn’t go out.
The eldest aunt said pointedly: "Mother, this child always remembers our kindness, and will be filial to you in the future."
What happened last time completely annoyed the eldest aunt. She not only scolded the second uncle Li and his wife half to death, but also asked them to pay Grandma Li's pension.
In the past, Uncle Li and his wife never contributed pension funds, but after this incident, 120 catties of grain plus 15 yuan per year will be added, and the medical expenses will be shared equally in the future. It's okay to go out, but never step into the door of her house. Uncle Li and his wife are stealing chickens this time.
Uncle Li asked Tian Dalin and Erya to enter the mountain this time, because he wanted them to help them carry charcoal out together. Now that the weather is cold, many people have started to enjoy the fire, and the price of charcoal has also risen.
Tian Dalin hesitated for a while but still refused: "Brother, I feel a little unwell recently and dare not do heavy physical work anymore."
He walked for four or five hours with a load weighing more than 100 kilograms, and he was worried that his body would not be able to bear it. If he used to work hard to make money, he doesn't dare now.
Uncle Li was taken aback. After asking the reason clearly, he didn't dare to ask Tian Dalin to help carry the charcoal out of the mountain: "Then you can install the kiln with Uncle Qing, it won't be very tiring."
Tian Dalin thinks that Mrs. Li and Sister-in-law Li can do this light and easy work. If the money is taken, other people may have opinions: "No, there are still a lot of things at home. If there is not enough manpower here, brother, let Erya stay and help!"
Seeing that he was unwilling, Uncle Li didn't force it.
It was rare to enter Yamada Dalin and did not leave immediately, but stayed for one night.
After the eldest aunt went to bed, she said to her husband: "It's also fortunate that Da Ya has a job to earn money to support the family, and my brother-in-law can take a breather. Otherwise, if I work hard like before, it won't take long for my bones to collapse."
Uncle Li is also very fortunate. It will be difficult for this big girl to lose her brother-in-law if she fails to pass the exam: "My big girl is filial and willing to support a few younger sisters. Their lives will get better and better in the future."
The eldest aunt thought about her brother-in-law taking off the burden, while her husband was still busy, she said distressedly: "The head of the family, you are also fifty years old. Next year we will buy a foundation in Tianjia Village and build a house. Leave the heavy burden to Da Kui and the others!"
Uncle Li has done no less work than Tian Dalin these years, but Mr. Li and him can hunt and eat well, and they have always been healthy and strong. It's just that he is an old person after all, and his physical strength and energy are not as good as before.
"good."
In the middle of the night, Tian Dalin also carried charcoal and followed Uncle Li and his son out of the mountain. This charcoal is not for sale, but is going to be sent to the county town for Tian Shao's use. How can I bear my body without charcoal for reading at night.
Picking up fifty catties of charcoal and walking for four hours, Tian Dalin fell into bed and fell asleep when he got home. After waking up, he said to Li Guihua: "This work is too tiring, next time you see your eldest brother, tell him not to do it."
Li Guihua shook her head and said: "The third chief is not married yet, and the eldest brother wants to build a house in our village. There is money inside and out. If you tell him not to do it, what should we do if the third chief is short of money to marry a wife? You can borrow it." ? Even if we are willing to borrow big brother, we won’t take it.”
It takes money inside and out, so you can’t do it! It's also fortunate that the husband and wife didn't know that Tian Shao had come up with this bad idea, otherwise they would have scolded her. Of course, Tian Shao didn't expect his family to work so hard.
Tian Dalin thought for a while and said: "When they buy a homestead next year, let's talk to the team leader and ask the team to set aside a piece of private land for the sister-in-law and the others, so that they don't need to spend extra money to buy vegetables."
Li Guihua is much better than him in this regard, and said: "If you want the team to set aside a homestead, those small-minded people will definitely make a fuss. Let me tell you, when the time comes, just make the homestead bigger and leave it to open up a vegetable field. good."
Tian Dalin thinks this is a good idea.
At noon on Thursday, Tian Shao rode his bicycle to the post office to inquire, and the medicine happened to arrive. Two sacks of medicine, one in the front and one in the back, have a 100% return rate on the way back.
Mrs. Shen was frightened when she saw so many medicines. Knowing that she had just prescribed three months of medicine, she couldn't help but said, "You are a real kid. If the medicine prescribed by this doctor doesn't work well, wouldn't these medicines be effective?" It's all wasted."
According to her idea, she should take three doses first, and then continue to eat if she feels effective. Anyway, she has the prescription in hand and grabs it in the county.
Tian Shao believed in Zhao Xiaorou, and the person she recommended must be right. But on the surface, she still accepted the criticism with an open mind: "Yes, Grandma Shen, you are right, I will bring the prescription back to the county to grab the medicine in the future."
She didn't regret the medicine she caught in the provincial capital, after all, Chu Qiu said that the medicine she caught was better than the medicine in the county.
