Gourmet pastoral: the clever mother raises the cute baby

Chapter 169
The weather these days has been gloomy and gloomy, and it looks like it's going to snow.

Aunt Ye also said, "It's snowing, it's snowing, it's not unreasonable that this auspicious snow heralds a good year."

For Tian Xiaowu's safety, Tian Xiaoyu decided to stop him from going out to work for the time being after several considerations, in case of such heavy snow weather, it would be bad if he got cold and sick.

It happened that Tian Xiaowu was resting at home today, and was sweeping the floor in the courtyard. Tian Xiaoyu put the dustpan on the stone table, walked over and said, "Xiaowu, I have something to tell you."

Tian Xiaowu was stunned for a moment, stood up straight and looked at Tian Xiaoyu, hesitant to speak but stopped, "I have something to say."

"Then you go ahead." Tian Xiaoyu was a little surprised. Ever since the siblings had a heart-to-heart talk a few months ago, the two of them have never had a good one-on-one conversation.

Tian Xiaowu nodded, hesitated for a while, and said, "Sister, Chinese New Year is coming soon, I want to go home, father and mother are at home, I haven't gone back for several months, they are probably worried."

Tian Xiaoyu was surprised that his younger brother would say such heartfelt words, and he couldn't believe it. However, nothing earth-shattering happened in the past few months, but why did he change his nature like this.

Seeing that she didn't answer him, Tian Xiaowu hurriedly said, "I will return it after the new year, and I will definitely pay back the ten taels that my brother-in-law lent me. Sis, do you have anything you want me to bring back?"

"Uh, me, when are you going back?" What Tian Xiaoyu wanted to say before has been forgotten at this moment.

"It's just a few days. I have already told Master Wang, and he settled the wages for me." After finishing speaking, Tian Xiaowu pulled down his purse, took out the money in it and divided it in half, leaving half for himself. Liao Tian Xiaoyu said halfway, "Sister, I will pay back the money first, and I will save some to buy some New Year's goods when I go home."

"You child, my sister is very rare for your little money. Put it all in. Don't buy new year's goods. I have bought a lot these days. When the time comes, you can bring meat, eggs and so on. I will let your brother-in-law Send you off, or find you a carriage to take you back." Tian Xiaoyu was moved in his heart, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to reject the money that Tian Xiaowu handed over.

Tian Xiaowu saw that she didn't take it, so he stopped insisting. He had his own plan in his heart, and the money would always be paid back.

The two siblings spoke peacefully for a while, Tian Xiaowu was in this room, apart from being at odds with Qiaomei, he was pretty good on weekdays, but Tian Xiaoyu couldn't get close to this younger brother, but if he didn't care Ask, it's not realistic.

The relationship between the siblings is not close, but it is not too alienated.

After talking for a long time, Tian Xiaoyu remembered her own affairs, but it seemed that there was no need to speak.

Since Tian Xiaowu wants to go home, it is impossible for Tian Xiaoyu not to say that even if he does not go back, he still needs to prepare some things. This is what a child should do. Since he replaced the original owner, he should help her It's not a good thing to avoid talking about the matter.

Before, Gu Yunqing kept talking about remarriage, but Tian Xiaoyu asked repeatedly, so he stopped insisting.

During the more than a month when the Gu family was repairing the house, who in Yushu Village didn't know that Tian Xiaoyu was the mistress of the second room of the Gu family, his wife Gu Yunqing, who was busy in the back kitchen of the courtyard every day, and how many people in the village were there on the day of the running water mat? Personally, I have never eaten anything cooked by Tian Xiaoyu.

Since then, no one in this village has talked about Tian Xiaoyu anymore. As long as they mention this daughter-in-law of the Gu family, they will be full of praise.

The eggs in this family are packed in a basket, and each one is wrapped in straw and put into the bamboo basket. The basket is also covered with straw, otherwise it will not be broken by collision.

The pork belly was also cut into about ten catties, and then the cooked food at home was prepared, some of the newly bought fabrics were cut, and there were various designs and colors, and they were neatly packaged.

As soon as Aunt Ye heard that Tian Xiaowu was leaving, she quickly took out the padded jacket she made and asked Tian Xiaoyu to put it on.

When Tian Xiaowu heard that Mrs. Ye had sewed a padded coat for herself, she made a special trip to the room to thank her, apologized to Qiaomei, and then went out.

Afterwards, Aunt Ye also said to Tian Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, your brother is not bad-tempered, but his temper has become a little bit grumpy. He has worked hard for several months, and now he has turned around."

"That is to say, I was worried that he would cause trouble for me a few days ago, but now I am very peaceful, and it is indeed a lot different from before." Tian Xiaoyu was folding clothes in his hands, and smiled at Aunt Ye.

Now that we have said goodbye, we will eventually say goodbye.

At the end of December, Tian Xiaoyu's marinated pork had been air-dried, and when he was about to hang it up for smoking, Tian Xiaowu left with a bag of things.

When I came here, I was empty-handed, with the mentality of eating, drinking, and money. I lived for two or three months, and it was true. I even asked my sister and brother-in-law to help me solve my debts. When I was about to leave, I gave such a Many things, even the travel expenses and cotton clothes have never been left behind.

Tian Xiaowu rejected Gu Yunqing's proposal to send him, and only said that he planned to go to the village to rent a bullock cart, and he would go back within a day at most.

When the Gu family courtyard gradually disappeared behind him, Tian Xiaowu's hot tears rolled down, thinking to himself about the foolish things he did and the words he said before, he really regretted it.

Knowing that the money is hard to come by, even though Tian Xiaoyu gave him five taels of silver, he thought about it and turned around towards the entrance of the village. It was only a few miles away, but he could save a little bit, and he still had to make up for ten taels sooner. The money should be returned to brother-in-law and the others.

When Tian Xiaowu left, Yuanbao had no one to play with, so he could only follow Tian Xiaoyu around every day. When it was cold, the copper coins were too lazy. Unwilling to take a step.

Bacon took a lot of work, Tian Xiaoyu moved them to the kitchen in the backyard, hung them on the beams of the house, removed the iron pot, and directly added fruit wood to the stove, but Gu Yunqing was specially asked to go there a few days ago bought.

This fruit wood bacon is the most delicious, and it lacks the smell of firewood smoke.

The fire inside the stove burns very slowly, but it can't be interrupted, so Tian Xiaoyu has to get up several times in the middle of the night to add firewood. Naturally, he can't sleep well after running around. Dark circles came out.

"Mom, I want to get out too, I want to get out." Yuan Bao looked at Tian Xiaoyu sitting on the stool, rolling eggs over his eyes, curious.

"Where are you going?" Tian Xiaoyu looked at him amusedly, without the teacher's teaching, Yuan Bao became more and more naughty.

Yuan Bao pouted his mouth, pointed to the egg in Tian Xiaoyu's hand and said, "I want that too, I want to eat it."

Well, feeling like wanting to eat eggs, Tian Xiaoyu thought about it and could only say, "Mother only cooked one, then I'll cook some for you."
