548, and the gift(1/2)

Eat full and sleep soundly. The women of the Tang family slept lazy for the first time.

The breakfast was prepared by Zhen’s arrival, and Ruan helped.

The breakfast was very simple. I cooked a large pot of two-meter porridge, heated yesterday's steamed buns, and served with pickled spicy radish. Zhen blanched it in water and mixed it with sesame paste beans. Seeing that the eggs in the basket were still full, I planned to cook a few boiled eggs.

At first, Zhen was thinking about one egg each, but later he felt a little distressed, so he put it back several times: "Now, when you are eating white flour steamed buns, you don't need eggs! From now on, every morning, the old lady and a few children each! You can beat them down and count them down, five children!"

Ruan was a little embarrassed: "Xiao Qian is not young anymore."

"How old can a seven-year-old child grow up? It's the time to grow up," Zhen smiled. "It's not like those girls, but they are all at the age of talking about marriage."

Ruan Shi was still embarrassed: "Or, break the fried eggs, and each of them could taste them."

"Oh, I said to my fourth sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to be such a pretentious person," Zhen directly put six eggs into the pot and cooked them. She also threw a large piece of material into the pot to improve the flavor, "Doesn't fried eggs cost oil?"

Ruan nodded: "It's still the thoughtful thoughts of the fifth brother and sister."

Zhen was amused by Ruan's appearance: "Sister-in-law is worthy of being a bookstore painting party, and she is always a literary master."

Zhen said something again: "What should I do with the painters you signed in the painting club? Are they also sealed by the court like other things in the shop?"

Ruan Tsai burst into laughter: "How can you seal the living people? The contract I signed with the painters is more flexible. If they have not submitted the draft for three months, I can terminate the contract unilaterally. If I have not sold one of their paintings for three consecutive months, they can also make another way to make a living."

Zhen nodded as if he was ignorant, and then sighed at her shop: "I don't believe they will seal my cookies without moving. Wouldn't they all grow green hair then? Those people will definitely eat all my cookies!"

Ruan was amused by Zhen's appearance: "As long as the younger brother and sister have food to keep on with, they will not be afraid of anything."

"By the way, sister-in-law, please help me squeeze some goat milk! Let the children eat in a while!"

"..." Ruan was here to take action, but who knew that he had been arranged such a difficult task, "This... I haven't squeezed it, so I dare not."

"Oh, is it still afraid of milking a woman's house?" Zhen was so amused and unbuttoned, "You are also afraid that it will use its horns to hit people."

Nguyen: "I don't dare to squeeze without horns."

"..." Zhen looked at her sister-in-law with a helpless look, "This thing is no different from a human being. If it is not squeezed out, it will feel uncomfortable."

Ruan Shi blushed: "Xiao Qian was fed by the wet nurse at the time, and I didn't understand these things very much."

"All right, then look at the porridge pot, don't suck it," Zhen put the apron on Ruan. "A woman who gave birth to a child doesn't even know what it is about milking," her eyes couldn't help but look at the other person's beautiful breasts: "You're just looking there."

Ruan's face turned red in her face and she couldn't help laughing whenever she thought about it afterwards.

...

The breakfast table was always happy. The old lady couldn't resist everyone's persuasion, so she ate a complete boiled egg and said that when it was a special day for women, everyone would eat brown sugar eggs.

The children didn't even bother with the smell of goat milk, and drank all the bowl of goat milk in front of them with a fragrant smell.

Because I got up late today, I was too late to eat. When the girls packed up the table and finished washing the bowls, it was already time.

The veteran from the outer courtyard shouted at the mouth of the yard: "A guest has arrived!"

Yanran asked, "Whose guest..." Before he finished speaking, he saw the man standing at the gate of the yard, "Three sisters! It's my third sister here!"

The old lady was walking in the yard to digest food. After hearing this, she stopped and saw Shu Yan standing at the door, wearing a cloth clothes and carrying a big bag.

"Grandmother, granddaughter is late." Shu Yan bent down and kowtowed to the old lady.

The old lady, a strong woman, had a moist look at her eyes at this moment, remembering what Shu Yan said before leaving - she would go their own way from now on, like a passerby.

The old lady came up and looked at Shu Yan, whose skin became darker: "I have lost a lot of weight, and my hair is not as dark as before."

Shu Yan smiled with tears: "I originally visited you, but now it's the other way around."

"Although we are locked up here, we are together, and you are suffering alone." The old lady choked up, as if her granddaughter should be the child sheltered.

The veteran saw a large group of women rushing into the living room again, and opened his mouth but said nothing.

Yanran felt sorry for her and said: "We got big kidney beans yesterday, and we planned to make kidney bean rolls in the afternoon! Then all the soldiers and big brothers will come and try it!"

The veteran nodded slightly, but said to the old lady: "Today, these two girls arrived before dawn. They brought farm tools to turn over the two acres of land outside the courtyard. Some planted seedlings, and some planted seeds, but they didn't stop for a moment."

Everyone was shocked, and their eyes looked at Shu Yan became softer.

The old lady asked, "Where is that child?"

Shu Yan said: "She couldn't stand such a scene, so she avoided it. She is still cleaning up the vegetable fields. We are also picking up seeds that can be harvested in autumn. At that time, we just need to water and remove the insects."

"Silly child, more than two acres of land." The old lady held Shu Yan's hand with heartache, and then she realized that a thin calluse appeared on her granddaughter's palm at some point. She felt that Shu Yan's life was even harder than herself.

Shu Yan seemed to understand her grandmother's thoughts and smiled and said, "I'm happy to live such a life."

The old lady had to sigh: "It's hard to buy happiness for a thousand golds, just be happy."

At this time, the entrance of the courtyard was also full of things. Shu Yan said, "I don't know what is missing here. I went to Weng's house to inquire first. Thinking that you might need firewood, I bought a car. In addition, I thought that since we were allocated two acres of land in a yard, this land is ours. If you want to plant anything, I brought some farm tools and some seeds. Don't be empty in the yard, and you can plant some loofahs and gourds."

Xiaoxiao was happy when she heard this: "My third sister and I thought of the same place. I was thinking about what to plant in the yard! It not only built a pergola to shade and solved the problem of eating vegetables, but also killed two birds with one stone!"

Smiling his ears: "Huh? Why does it seem like there is a gurgling sound?"

Shu Yan smiled and said, "I bought a large cage of chickens so that I could eat fresh eggs every day. When I wanted to nourish my body, I would kill two chickens to eat."

Smiling and looking at Yanran proudly: "I was right yesterday, right? My third sister brought the chicken today!"

Yanran: "Do you dare to kill?"

Zhen intercepted her daughter in one sentence: "I'll kill!"

This sentence is majestic, as if it still has an echo.

Zhen looked at the veteran standing by: Did you tell me just now?

Veteran:...yes

Shu Yan said again: "My brother-in-law has been to prison several times, but the guards there are very strict, so it is impossible to let anyone in for a visit... My brother-in-law has given the officers and soldiers a lot of benefits, and I hope they can treat the people inside well."

When it comes to the men and women in the Tang family, they are all silent.

Brother Sheng seemed to understand the adults' words and cried, "I want daddy."

Jin Baodi and Shan Niang hurriedly carried all the children out.

Shu Yan said again: "We will also go to the prison to try our luck later. Maybe we can catch up with a good officer and soldier to find out more information."

Xiaoxiao reminded me: "My sister's money is still there..."

Shu Yan already knew it: "Xiao Dier has given us all the money. She also wants to come together today, but the business side is so busy that she can't handle it."

Xiaoxiao understood that the Tang family’s affairs had already spread in Kyoto, and the old customers of the magazine might have the idea of ​​stopping cooperation. Some people might even bully their lives when they see that the original boss is not there.

Shu Yan: "Nijie and I will not go back to Jiushan for the time being, so we will stay in the magazine to help them start their business together."

"Three sisters..." Xiaoxiao was moved for a moment.

Shu Yan said, "When is it now? The Tang family should be united so that they can take advantage of the power to turn over."

Xiaoxiao wiped his tears and held Shu Yan's hand. He couldn't say anything about this sincere sister at this moment.

"Don't escape from being lazy," Shu Yan took out an envelope, which seemed thick inside: "This is full of the difficulties encountered by magazines and photo studios. If we don't solve them, we will write them on it. Think about how to deal with it. We will send someone to get the reply in a few days."

Seeing that there was nothing he had done here, Yanran pulled Zhan Yan and said, "Let's go and help aunts move things."

Zhan Yan always had a very special feeling about Shu Yan. He didn't want to come in just now, but when he saw that the whole family was coming, it was difficult to refuse, so he could only come in with a tough bullet. He heard that Shu Yan had done farm work for several hours, and was moved.

At this time, when he heard Yanran call him, he was about to leave. But he heard Shu Yan say, "Prepare a roll of dragon beard straw mat for Zhan Yan. I remember that she couldn't sleep with the bamboo mat and thought it was too cold. She put on summer cloth and felt wrinkled. It was just right to use dragon beard straw mat."

Zhan Yan stopped and looked at the half-sister, with red eyes - his mother and younger brother should have been from this family, and he left without hesitation when they encountered disaster; Shu Yan, an outsider who had already entered Qiaohuisi, came back with enthusiasm at this moment...

The person in front of me became the person closest to me. Zhan Yan shouted with a sour nose: "Sister..."

This seems to be the first time in more than a decade that I have called this person sister.

The old lady was also happy to hear it: "All of them are good children of the Tang family!" As she said that, she laughed at the veterans next to her: "The girls in our Tang family are more capable than those young men outside. They can study, settle accounts, cook, and cook, and they can endure hardships!"

The veteran smiled and said, "This is also your good education and a blessing for you."

"This soldier is really good at speaking." The old lady smiled.

Shu Yan asked Xiaoxiao quietly: "How did you live with your hairpin?"

Xiaoxiao was suddenly asked about this and touched the bun with cloth strips on his head: "Those days, we were caught up in the most chaotic times. We were just locked up and didn't know where we were going to be sent. Who still had the thoughts and hairpins? I thought I could survive."

Everyone was a little sad after saying this. The old lady said, "Let's make up for Xiaoxiao's birthday, and roll out noodles to eat today!"

Shu Yan took out a wooden box from his arms and opened it. It was a long, exquisitely carved wooden hairpin inside: "This hairpin has been carved by Niji. I thought it would be a matter of thought to send it to you when you are born. But who knew that something big happened."

Xiaoxiao had already held the wooden hairpin in his hand: "It looks so good. What kind of flowers are carved on it? Is it a magnolia?"

Shu Yan smiled and said, "It's a smile, which can be considered as suppressing your name."

"I like it so much!" Xiaoxiao couldn't let it go.

Yanran was clever and said quickly: "I'll get the comb now. While my third sister is here and there is a hairpin, let's give the fifth sister a hairpin here!"

Everyone said it was a good idea, so the mirror comb was ready, and Shan Niang came over, combing her daughter's hair and placing her hair with her hands, while the old lady personally put a long hairpin on her granddaughter.

"This is how you grow up."

Xiaoxiao smiled embarrassedly in front of everyone.

Shu Yan said again: "By the way, I have a secret to tell you."

Xiaoxiao: Everyone is here, do you really have to choose to tell the secret at this time?
To be continued...
