Chapter 218 An Uneasy New Year’s Eve
Tian Dalin took Erya to the grave when it was bright. The custom here is to go to the grave of the ancestors on New Year's Eve. In the past, because I was planning to let the big girl recruit a wife, I took the big girl there, but now it's the second girl who takes her there.
Tian Shao did not go because she was too lazy to run, and she would not stop Tian Dalin if she wanted to go. Wait until the steamed stuffed buns are cooked for three hours before getting up. After brushing their teeth and washing their faces, they head into the kitchen to eat steamed stuffed buns.
Liuya took a bite, her eyes lit up, she gave a thumbs up and praised: "Sister, the buns you made are so delicious."
While chewing the buns, Wuya mumbled, "Isn't it, I didn't lie to you, the meat buns made by eldest sister are delicious."
Tian Shao touched her head, and said softly: "You have a bad stomach, so you should eat less and more meals. Eat one first, and then eat one after two hours."
"good."
After Wu Ya was full, she asked Tian Shao: "Sister, we made meat buns, do you want to give two to grandma?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Father is not here, what are you giving?"
Actually, she knew very well that Tian Dalin sent food to the old house every Chinese New Year, firstly for the sake of reputation, and secondly, he wanted to show his filial piety. Although Mrs. Tian was a bit biased, she raised him wholeheartedly, and Tian Dalin always remembered this kindness of nurturing.
Wu Ya immediately understood that the gift was to make Dad feel at ease.
Tian Shao always cooks something delicious every time he comes back, and the smell of meat buns wafted away early. Mrs. Tian got the news early and was waiting for them to send meat buns to the meals of her grandchildren, but she didn't wait until the sun was high.
Old lady Tian was unhappy, so she ran to Tian's house, saw Tian Dalin killing fish, and asked, "Why didn't you send me any of the meat buns you made?"
Tian Dalin didn't know about this, but Mrs. Tian came to beg for steamed stuffed buns on New Year's Eve. Isn't this a bad luck for her family?
Tian Shao frowned, but didn't make a sound.
Li Guihua came out of the house, looked at Mrs. Tian and said, "My Liuya was brought back after suffering such a serious crime. Everyone in the village would come to visit if they had any friendship. Your own grandma didn't show her face, but now she has face." Come to ask for meat buns. Let me tell you, from today on, don’t even think about meat buns as meat-moth stars.”
If Tian Shao sent meat buns, she wouldn't stop her even if she didn't like it. After all, the meat and noodles were earned by her daughter. However, Tian Shao's actions just now let her know that her daughter only cared about her husband's feelings.
Old lady Tian knew Li Guihua's temperament, so she couldn't explain it to her: "Tian Dalin, what should I ask you? Are you deaf or dumb?"
Although Tian Dalin was unhappy at first, he didn't want to quarrel on New Year's Eve: "Mother, there are no more meat buns. I will send you some meat and vegetables at noon. But if you are still arguing here, I won't give them away. "
Old lady Tian wanted to be rude, but Li Guihua went crazy and dragged her out, and he really didn't bring anything. She changed her strategy very cleverly, and said, "Dalin, my mother has bad teeth and wants to eat something soft. I ate the meat buns you sent last time, and I have been thinking about them these days."
Tian Shao chuckled and said, "Grandma, speaking of it, our sisters have never eaten the food cooked by grandma when we grow up! Look, will you set up a table for us tomorrow? By the way, I heard that your old hen No more orders, just kill and make up for us."
Old lady Tian is not afraid of the pungent Li Guihua, but she has some scruples about Tian Shao. The girl said with a smile on her face: "I am your grandma, if you are unfilial to me, you will be struck by lightning."
Cursing or threatening these things is useless to Tian Shao. I have heard too much in my previous life and I am immune: "I really hope that God can open his eyes and kill those who don't treat girls as human beings. After death, the king of Hades can also kill them." Throw them into the cattle lane."
Without waiting for Mrs. Tian, Li Guihua got angry first: "You stinky girl, what are you doing on New Year's Eve, tell me something auspicious!"
Tian Dalin also said: "Big girl, you go back to the house and read a book, as long as your mother and I take care of it here."
Tian Shao is very disgusted with this behavior of Mrs. Tian. The New Year's Eve should be happy, but she casts a shadow because of her. If Second Uncle Li can still be driven away, Tian Lin's mood must be taken into consideration, so things can't be overdone.
Thinking of this, Tian Shao suddenly changed his strategy: "Grandma, my father, second uncle, third uncle, who do you think is the most filial?"
Old lady Tian said without thinking, "Of course your second uncle is the most filial."
Tian Shao asked with a smile: "Do you really think that the second uncle is the most filial?"
It is so strange that in many families those who are favored are often selfish, while those who are neglected are mostly filial. Tian Dalin has a simple and honest personality and only knows how to work hard without counting gains and losses. Tian Erlin will coax people into unwillingness to pay typical egoism. Tian Sanlin is better but he is not one who is willing to suffer.
Old lady Tian said proudly: "Naturally, your second uncle has been filial since he was a child and gave birth to three grandchildren for me."
Tian Shao said: "Grandma, my father has been weak due to overwork these years. After I found out, I begged someone to buy malted milk for him to drink, and I also bought meat and bones to stew for him every now and then. Grandma, you will soon be sixty Yes, I heard from my father that you suffered a lot when you were young, so you must have many physical problems, right? The second uncle lives with you, but he has bought any good things to make up for you, "
Actually, Tian Dalin didn’t tell her about Mrs. Tian, but the people at the bottom who came from the old society knew that life was hard before without asking.
Mrs. Tian paused, but quickly said: "Your second uncle's family is in trouble. Erli and Sanli haven't married yet, so how can they have money to buy supplements? Big girl, you are a good boy. With your help, you and Erli will be able to buy some supplements." Let's help the younger brothers!"
Li Guihua showed anger, but she knew Tian Shao was eloquent enough so she didn't interrupt.
Tian Shao pretended not to have heard this, and said, "Grandma, you said that the second uncle's family can't afford to buy good food for you. I can understand this. But why all the meat, vegetables and buns sent by my family went to the second uncle's house?" Among Dali's few people, you can't even take a bite. My father's malted milk essence, Erya and Sanya don't want to drink a mouthful."
These are what Siya heard from Sanli, and there is absolutely no falsehood.
Mrs. Tian said: "Er Li and San Li are growing up and need to eat better. Da Ya, you are so capable, if they can find you a job for Da Da in the city, they will be grateful to you for the rest of their lives. In the future, they will also give you Father and mother will take care of them at the end of their lives."
She actually wanted Tian Shao to give up the job to her eldest grandson, but she was still confused, knowing that her son would probably kick her out if she spoke, so she took a step back.
Erya got angry when she heard that, and shouted: "I'll recruit a new wife to support my parents until the end of their lives. I don't need this black-hearted person to come to my house."
She doesn't believe that Tian Shao can find her a job, but with Tian Shao's ability, she will definitely take care of family affairs in the future. With her help, she will definitely have a good life staying at home and raising a family.
