Seeing Aunt Huang running away quickly, Helan's eyes were slightly red. Aunt Huang was still as good to her as ever after all these years.
Upon seeing this, Tang Shuang said directly: "Mom, since this is Granny Huang's wish, let's eat it first."
Helan himself was hungry, not to mention his two daughters, so he nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, let's eat quickly."
Although there was nothing else, I was very satisfied eating the soft steamed buns. After the mother and daughter finished eating, they simply washed up and lay down together.
"Shuang'er, Xiaoxue, let's make do with it tonight. Mom will prepare a bed for each of you tomorrow." Now there are only three of them, mother and daughter, living in this house, so it is completely possible for each person to have a room. After all, there are two
My daughter is already old, so she should have her own room long ago.
Tang Xue's face was full of excitement when she heard this.
"Mom, can I really have my own room?"
Seeing her little daughter's face full of joy and expectation, Helan was very sad. Although the days ahead would still be difficult, she nodded firmly and said, "Yes, we Xiaoxue will also have our own room in the future."
Seeing Tang Xue's excitement, Tang Shuang couldn't help but smile and said, "Xiaoxue, from now on, my sister will decorate your room beautifully."
"good."
Tang Xue's face was full of joy when she heard this. Although she was already sixteen years old, for her who had never had a room of her own, it was really happy to have a room of her own.
It was a tiring day today, and the mother and daughter fell asleep quickly.
The next day, Tang Shuang woke up early. She went out quietly and ran around. Seeing that it was still early, she simply went to the mountain.
Their current old house is very remote, at the foot of the mountain at the end of Taohua Village. There are no other residents around, so no one has cared about this place for so many years, but it is very convenient for Tang Shuang.
When she arrived at the mountain, Tang Shuang first searched for prey, and actually let her hunt two pheasants and a hare. After that, she went straight down the mountain and returned home.
Helan was relieved when his eldest daughter came back.
"Shuang'er, where have you been so early in the morning?"
Seeing her mother's worried look, Tang Shuang couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry, Mom, I got up early to exercise and then went to the mountains again."
"Shuang'er, you went to the mountains again. I don't know if there are wild beasts in the mountains here. Don't go there next time." Although Helan saw that her daughter had brought back the prey, Helan was very worried.
Tang Xue is also a little worried. Even if she is very greedy for meat, her sister is the most important.
"Yes, sister, don't go there next time."
Tang Xue is now thin and small, and her complexion is not good-looking, but her facial features can still be seen. Tang Shuang couldn't help but rub her sister's hair and said: "Don't worry, Xiaoxue, I'm very powerful, there will be no danger."
Seeing that Helan and Tang Xue wanted to talk more, Tang Shuang couldn't help but said: "Mom, do you remember that there was a period of time last year when I often went up the mountain to carry firewood. In fact, Uncle Sun helped me pick up the firewood, and he also
He taught me several moves, so I actually know how to do it, so you don’t have to worry."
This was the method she came up with after searching her memory. There was indeed a middle-aged man named Sun in Luhua Village earlier. When she was cutting pigweed, she saw the man fainting from hunger and kindly gave him a piece of sweet potato. The man remembered
Thanks to this favor, I helped her collect firewood for many days, and that man was really good at kung fu.
The original owner may not have noticed it at first, but after she recalled that experience, she realized that Uncle Sun was not simple. Judging from the fierceness he showed accidentally, his skills were definitely not low. What's more, Uncle Sun had already left Taohua Village.
She can use it just right.
"What...Shuang'er, you are too brave. If someone discovers that you have contact with the people in the back mountain, I don't know if you will be implicated." Helan's face was full of nervousness after hearing this.
"Mom, we have all left Luhua Village, so you don't have to worry, not to mention Uncle Sun has also left."
Helan felt relieved after hearing this.
Tang Xue was very happy, "Mom, sister, can we eat meat for lunch?"
"certainly."
Tang Shuang said with a smile, and then took out the two pheasants, "We will make braised rabbit meat at noon. One of these two chickens was given to Granny Huang and the other to the village chief to thank them for their help to us."
."
"Yes, you should thank them."
Helan and Tang Xue both nodded in agreement.
The mother and daughter's breakfast was still two-faced steamed buns. After eating, Helan took her two daughters to the village chief and Aunt Huang's home.
Village head Liu Liangcai only had his wife Wu Juan and her two grandchildren at home. When she saw the pheasant sent by He Lan, she was full of surprise and said, "Alan, what are you doing?"
"Sister-in-law, thank you to the village for taking us, my mother, and my daughter in. If the village chief hadn't granted us a homestead and helped us settle down, we, our mother and my daughter, would have had no land. This pheasant was brought by Shuang'er just this morning.
I’ll give you an extra dish for lunch.”
Wu Juan had already heard from her husband about Helan's divorce yesterday, and she felt quite sympathetic to her. She originally thought that she would not be able to live well as a woman with two daughters, but she did not expect that today she would generously send a pheasant.
, "Is this done by Shuang'er?"
Helan said proudly: "Yes, our Shuang'er has nimble hands and feet, and occasionally he can catch some small prey when he goes up the mountain."
Wu Juan looked at Tang Shuang and praised: "It's really amazing."
"Thank you for the compliment, aunt."
Although Wu Juan was also greedy for meat, life was difficult for Helan and her daughter, so she refused to accept it.
Upon seeing this, Helan hurriedly took his two daughters away.
Seeing Helan like this, Wu Juan gave her a high look.
Afterwards, Helan took her two daughters to Aunt Huang's house.
"Alan, you are serious, take it back quickly."
As soon as Aunt Huang saw the pheasant, she immediately declined. However, the two daughters-in-law standing behind her stared at the pheasant. They had not seen meat in the house for a long time, but their mother-in-law said so, so they certainly couldn't say anything.
.
Mother and daughter also put down their things and left.
"Hey...Alan, this kid, is still as honest as before."
When Xu Zhaodi, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huang family, saw that she was pregnant, her eyes were filled with light, and she finally had no objection to her mother-in-law's behavior of delivering steamed buns last night.
On the other side, Tang Shuang did not go back with her mother and the others, "Mom, there is nothing at home. I will go to the town to buy some daily necessities."
"Shuang'er, then I'll get you some money, but we don't have much money left. Just buy some necessities and come back." She still had only a dozen yuan left, so she planned to give him ten yuan.
daughter.
Tang Shuang waved her hand and said, "No, Mom, I have money, I'll leave first." After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Helan's reaction.
