Chapter 379

Ji Bajie suddenly understood the meaning of the two nephews' words, and said with a smile: "Qi'er, Bai'er, your sister has already paid the money from the public at the beginning of the month."

Only then did Tao Weiqi and Tao Weibo put away the money in peace of mind, and on the way back, they discussed talking to Tao Qingbi again.

It was getting late, Tao Qingbi had already soaked her feet in hot water, when she heard the voices of Tao Weiqi and Tao Weibo, she opened the door and called her two younger brothers to come in.

Tao Weiqi and Tao Weibo entered the room, and they said shyly that their brother had earned money this time, and wanted to ask Tao Qingbi what kind of gift would he like?
Tao Qingbi laughed immediately after hearing what the two of them said: "Let's think about it, I really don't lack anything. Brother will give me books, what will you give us? Think for yourself, as long as you I will be happy with whatever you give me.”

After Tao Weiqi's brother left, Tao Qingbi hurried to bed. In this weather, it was much warmer to lie on the bed.

At noon the next day, brothers Tao Weiqi came to deliver lunch. Seeing how busy the store was, they quickly took over the delivery.

When the brothers came back from delivering the goods, Tao Weiyun and Tao Qingbi had already had lunch.

In the afternoon, more customers came, Tao Weiyun brothers also stayed in the shop, and when the shop closed in the evening, their brothers, like Tao Qingbi, didn't want to talk anymore.

In the evening, Tao Qingbi handed over the sold goods and money to Ji Bajie. Ji Bajie said very distressed: "Your sister-in-law is preparing sugar water for you to moisten your throat. You can drink a bowl later."

After Tao Qingbi nodded, she said, "Auntie, Ying Ziqin has brought a pack of nourishing medicinal sugar. Let me tell my sister-in-law that there is no need to prepare sugar water for us tomorrow."

Ji Bajie just smiled. She has never talked much about the affairs between their aunts and sisters-in-law, and she also knows that Fang Qiuhua will still boil syrup to moisten her throat tomorrow.

Tao Qingbi went to the kitchen and spoke to Fang Qiuhua, who was busy. Fang Qiuhua smiled and said, "Ying Ziqin is such a careful person. He is more considerate this year than last year."

Tao Qingbi explained with a smile: "He said that brown sugar was sent over before. Brown sugar is not convenient this year. He was worried that we didn't prepare medicinal sugar, so he made a pack of medicinal sugar for us. He made it himself."

Seeing the smile on Tao Qingbi's face, Fang Qiuhua secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When Tao Qingbi mentioned Ying Ziqin before, it seemed that he was only referring to someone she knew.

When she mentioned Ying Ziqin now, her tone became a little more friendly, and her face also had a little more smile.

Tao Qingbi accompanied Fang Qiuhua to boil sugar water in the kitchen. Fang Qiuhua took advantage of the situation and reminded Tao Qingbi: "Niuniu, the relationship between my aunt and her mother's family is not very good. During the Chinese New Year, let's not talk about family affairs."

Tao Qingbi looked up at her in surprise: "I heard that the Bao family has come to our house to apologize."

A mocking smile flashed across Fang Qiuhua's face: "Grandma Bao's family came to the house once, and my aunt invited Grandma Bao's family into the room to talk. I was busy in the kitchen, and when I was about to cook, I didn't know that Grandma Bao's family had gone back. gone."

Tao Qingbi looked at the expression on Fang Qiuhua's face. She listened to the movement outside and said with a smile, "I don't see the Bao family's grandmother very often."

Fang Qiuhua and Tao Qingbi were talking in the kitchen. After the syrup was finished, they were still sitting in the kitchen talking. It wasn't until the children shouted outside that Fang Qiuhua got up and left the kitchen with a smile.

Tao Qingbi tidied up the kitchen in the back. After Tao Weiyun brothers came in and drank the sugar water, she watched them wash the dishes, and then followed them back to the room.

One evening before the Chinese New Year, all the shops were closed, and by the way, red paper was posted announcing the opening time of the shops.

The weather was a bit cold, and Tao Weiyun brothers and Tao Qingbi couldn't help talking when they walked into the house.

Tao Weibo was a little worried and said to Tao Weiyun: "Second brother, there is no stock in the warehouse or at home, and the store is half empty. We have to work quickly now, and we can't make much."

Tao Weiyun is very experienced and said: "During the Chinese New Year, we only need to make the goods displayed in the store. After the door opens, if the customer wants to order, we will deliver it to the place designated by the customer after the year."

Tao Weiqi looked at the expression on Tao Weibo's face, and then at Tao Weiyun's calm expression. He said to Tao Qingbi, "Sister, during the Chinese New Year, I would like to ask my brother-in-law to borrow some books to read. Do you think it's okay?"

"You can ask him tomorrow, don't wait until the Chinese New Year, go to his house to pick up books."

Tao Weiqi became happy, he looked at Tao Qingbi and said with a smile: "Sister, do you want to go out with us tomorrow?"

"No, I have a lot to do tomorrow. If the weather is fine, the quilt in your room will also be removed and washed."

"Sister, no need. It's too cold. We'll take off the quilt and wash it when it's spring."

Tao Qingbi glanced at them: "Second brother will be at home tomorrow, shall we build a stove in the corner to boil water? Use warm water to wash the quilt surface, and don't use water to cool it, worrying about hurting your hands."

"Okay. Your second sister-in-law also talked about washing the quilt. Let's wash together tomorrow. We get up in the morning and pile up the stove, and you can wash the quilt with warm water." The Tao Weiqi brothers looked at each other, and also laughed: "We carry water. And we can also wring out quilts."

They discussed things for tomorrow on the road, and when they got back, they talked to their family members. Ji Bajie smiled and said, "Okay, just clean up the house, and our family will celebrate the New Year happily."

After brothers Tao Zuoliang and Tao Zuozhu looked up at the sky, they looked at each other and nodded.

That night, the Tao Weiqi brothers came to Tao Qingbi's room, and they discussed with Tao Qingbi: "Sister, we have to get up later tomorrow."

Tao Qingbi looked at their faces and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't get up too early tomorrow. Qier, Baier, after you get up, remove the quilts covered by Lier and Qiuer.

Don't worry about the cold weather, the quilt can't dry.Tomorrow, my aunt will definitely light a fire under the eaves, and there will be a fire to bake. In the afternoon, after the quilt is completely dry, I will sew the quilt for you. "

Tao Weili and Tao Weiqiu rejoiced, and they smiled and said, "Sister, we will help you wash the quilt."

Tao Qingbi looked at the clothes they were wearing and asked, "Have you hidden dirty clothes in the room?"

The brothers blushed with embarrassment and said, "Sister, we see that you are very busy these days, so we want to save the clothes, and when the weather is warmer, we can wash them ourselves."

Tao Qingbi looked at them with a smile: "Next year, you will wash by yourself. Sister, this year, I will help you wash thick clothes for a year."

The Tao Weiqi brothers suddenly remembered that after the New Year, Tao Qingbi would soon get married, and they showed reluctance on their faces.
