Mother Li has already cooked the porridge and the medicine. After drinking the herbal tea last night, she felt comfortable all over when she got up this morning. After working all morning, she didn't breath or feel dizzy.
Seeing that Tian Jing was getting up, she said with a smile, "Tian Tian is getting up. You use the water from the thermos bottle to brush your teeth and wash your face. I boiled the medicine in the clay pot. After breakfast and cleaning the big pot, I will use the big pot to boil water."
"
"Mother-in-law, how is your health?"
Tian Jing looked at Li's mother and saw that her face looked good, but she still wanted to ask her how she felt.
"Very good. When I woke up this morning, I felt very comfortable. I didn't feel tired even after having breakfast. The herbal tea was good."
"Yeah." Tian Jing nodded, "Then you should take it easy, don't overtire yourself, and take your time."
"I know, I'll just make breakfast, a light job."
Li's mother had a relaxed and cheerful smile on her face. Li Zhengguo, who had just come out, also smiled when he saw it. His mother's body seemed to be getting better.
After washing up, she went to the east room to eat. Tian Jing gave a bag of sugar to Mother Li, "Mother-in-law, watch Li Min. Don't allow her to eat pickles. Put some sugar in her porridge."
Li Min's eyes immediately turned red. White rice porridge with sugar was the standard breakfast for her and her eldest brother when her father was still alive.
Mother Li took the sugar and wanted to tear open the plastic bag with her teeth. Seeing Tian Jing's bright eyes, she turned around and picked up the bamboo basket at the end of the kang, found a sewing needle, and poked the corner of the bag with the sewing needle.
"Don't you have any scissors at home?" Tian Jing was looking at Li Zhengguo.
"I don't know." Li Zhengguo looked confused. He didn't care.
"How do you cut your fingernails?"
Men may not pay attention to the sewing and mending issues at home, but in life, there will always be times when they personally use scissors, right?
Well, could he refuse to answer?
Li Min was holding the bowl of porridge, followed by the sugar poured by her mother. When she heard her sister-in-law's words, the corners of her mouth turned up, "It's chewable."
Chewing? Tian Jing raised her eyebrows, "What about the toenails? Pick them up and chew them?"
Ha ha ha ha.
Mother Li and Li Min couldn't help laughing.
Li Zhengguo raised his hand and touched the top of Tian Jing's hair, "Naughty."
Because Li's mother was laughing, she spilled some sugar on the Kang table. Li Min was so distressed that she lowered her head to lick it, but Tian Jing stopped her.
"Stop, from now on, my family must pay attention to hygiene. I feel bad if the sugar is spilled, but the table is so dirty. That rag wipes everything, and then wipes the table. If you lick it directly, how many bacteria will you lick into your stomach?"
Li Min stuck her tongue out. Well, her sister-in-law was right. She retracted her tongue, raised her hand and swept the sugar on the Kang table to one place, covering it with a porridge bowl so that she couldn't see it, so she didn't feel bad.
Tian Jing decided not to discuss the issue of easy gossip, "Li Zhengguo, next time you go to the county town, you must buy scissors and nail clippers."
"Yeah." Li Zhengguo tried his best to suppress himself. Although it was him who was teasing Tiantian, he also wanted to laugh.
Li Min stirred the porridge with a spoon and took a sip of the familiar taste. She felt moved in her heart. But suddenly she thought of her sister-in-law's question and couldn't help but want to laugh. This breakfast made her mood go up and down.
After the meal, Tian Jing stir-fried the medicine paste for Li Min. Last night when she went to bed, Li Min thought it was too uncomfortable to wrap it up, so she took it off. As a result, the medicine paste was dried by the kang, so she could only add more water to stir-fry it.
"Li Zhengguo, how should I pay back the wine? Pay back the money? Pay back the wine? Or eggs or rice noodles?"
"Whatever you borrow will be repaid. When we go to the county town again to buy new year's goods, we can buy it by the way."
"It takes too long, are you happy with it?"
"Now, it doesn't matter."
Tian Jing understood. She used to be unhappy because the Li family at the end of the village was too poor, but now, because the Li family seems to be getting better.
"Then, do we want to sell something during the Chinese New Year?"
Tian Jing muttered while frying the medicine paste, "I also need to tidy up the private land. Can you help me chop some bamboo blanks and build a shed? Let's grow some vegetables and send them to the supply and marketing cooperative. They should be collected, right? Or give them to Ouyang Lei.
?”
"Okay." Li Zhengguo responded quickly.
Tian Jing looked up at him, "Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to do it?"
"Don't be afraid. You have to try everything. Only when you get the results will you know whether it works or not." Li Zhengguo lowered his head and removed the firewood from the bottom of the pot.
Tian Jing shoveled out the paste, "With your words, I can rest assured and wait for us to come back and ask Sister Niu for some seeds."
"I saw that the pumpkins sprouted in the wooden box. Do I still want to continue making the wooden box?"
Li Zhengguo moves wooden boxes in and out every day. The pumpkin seedling has already grown its fourth leaf. How many days has it been?
"Yes, tomorrow, you can make me a four- or five-story shelf against the wall, which can save the ground and take up space at the top." Tian Jing said as she walked out.
"Okay." Li Zhengguo responded behind her. He didn't need Tian Jing to elaborate. He also knew what Tian Jing meant. He had seen the land-saving planting method of living in a building.
Building? It seems that the part of Tiantian he doesn't understand is that his family conditions are good, or the social conditions he lives in are good.
After bandaging Li Min, Tian Jing walked out of the east room and saw that Li Zhengguo was ready.
The so-called preparations are eggs and boiling water in a bamboo tube. The eggs are naturally red eggs from yesterday. After being peeled by Li Zhengguo, they were boiled again in water.
There were more than forty eggs, ten of which were eaten last night. Li Zhengguo heated ten more, and there were still more than twenty eggs left. Tian Jing handed the key to the West Room to Mother Li.
"Mother-in-law, while you are watching the cooking at noon, you should also eat the stew to prevent it from spoiling. You can also fry the red eggs in oil. You can eat whatever you like. Don't save money. Money is not saved.
, which saves the body."
"Don't worry." Mother Li took the key, "We had rice and pork stewed vermicelli for lunch. Didn't Minmin say we would still eat it today? By the way, where are the vermicelli? Have you taken them out to dry?"
Tian Jing looked at Li Zhengguo, who nodded, "The starch has been exposed to Chen Suozhu's courtyard, and we are worried that Tian Lifu will follow."
"Then I'll go get some back at noon."
"Well, let's go then."
"good."
Mother Li watched her son and daughter-in-law leave before returning to the east room, "I hope your brother and sister-in-law will go well."
By this time, the sun had already risen, and it was about eight o'clock.
There were many people walking around in the village. When they saw Li Zhengguo and his wife going to the end of the village, they knew they were going to Li Min's mother-in-law's house to inform them, but they didn't know whether the Tian family was returning or marrying.
In this Kushan, except for the ignorant children, no one knows that Li Min and Tian Jing have exchanged marriages. Tian Jing is a capable and powerful girl. No one knows why the Tian family asked Tian Jing to join the Li family first.
Once upon a time, Li Min was considered a capable girl in Kushan, taking care of her sick mother and lame brother without any complaints.
Although the family is poor, it is kept neat and tidy, but compared with Tian Jing, it is not at the same level.
Now, with Li Min like this, if the Tian family doesn't marry, will they pay compensation or money? If they do, how much money should they pay to the Tian family?
Li Min's one hundred and two yuan was taken to the county by her sister-in-law and brother. As soon as the money was received and spent, something happened to Li Min. Is Li Min lucky or not?
Some people are sympathetic, some are indifferent, and some are laughing at it.
None of this has anything to do with Tian Jing and Li Zhengguo. At this moment, the two of them entered the team headquarters to find the captain to open an account and receive a certificate. This time they went to Zhangshan and moved out of Tian Jing's account by the way.
