Grandpa is not called Cuihua

Chapter 4 Mutual Support

Su Gui's return in this family is like a small stone thrown into the lake, stirring up a small wave, and then quickly regained calm.The family is still working from sunrise to sunset, busy with life.

The only difference is that Lan Hua's attitude towards her younger brother has changed a little.

Xiu Niang and Tao Hua tasted the package of dim sum symbolically, leaving the rest for the two younger ones.In private, Lan Hua stared at Su Mo for a full minute, her expression was as if she had seen a ghost—"You really don't want to eat? Do you really give it all to me?"

"Really, third sister, you can eat them all."

Su Mo nodded cooperatively, her thin face was full of seriousness, and she reassured.He dismissed those unpalatable snacks in his heart, but he must not show it in front of Lanhua.

"You don't regret it."

Stuffing a piece of snack into her mouth, the sweet taste is so delicious to the heart, Lan Hua's attitude towards this younger brother is a little softer for the first time.No need to grab or threaten, all the delicious food is yours, this feels really good!

There was boiled water in the teapot on the table, Su Mo poured himself a cup and drank it slowly.This water has a unique sweetness, it would be ruined if those low-quality granulated sugar were added, he would rather drink plain water.

Lan Hua ate a few pieces one after another. Seeing Su Mo "staring" at the side, she felt a little embarrassed for the first time, so she picked a small piece and handed it over -- "Then, eat it!"

Su Mo waved her hands again and again, and said sincerely: "I don't like to eat, third sister, you should eat all of it."

Lan Hua glanced at her younger brother uncomfortably, and didn't take his refusal seriously at all, no fool would like such delicious snacks!For the sake of him keeping all the delicious food for himself—"Hmph, I won't take advantage of you either, I'll help you feed the chicken later."

"Oh, thank you, Third Sister."

Su Mo thanked him in a timely manner. Originally, after Su Mo was able to get out of bed and walk around, "he" has always been in charge of feeding the chickens.Today he has been worrying about this matter all the time, those chickens are digging up the soil all day looking for insects to eat, do they still need to be fed?He thought it would be fine as long as it was artificially raised.

Now I want him to feed, I don't know how to do it!

When the orchids were feeding the chickens, Su Mo followed her "obediently", watching her neatly chop up the young grass on the cutting board, pour it into the clay pot, and mix it with some shellfish scraps .Only later did he know that those shell-like debris are called bran, which are sifted out after grinding flour.

"Dangdangdang-"

Lanhua picked up a stick and knocked on the edge of the earthen pot a few times, no matter if it was an old hen or a chick, they all ran over happily, pecking vigorously.

Regarding this, Su Mo was calm on the surface, but in his heart he found it very interesting.Moreover, feeding chickens and so on is also very simple!

"Now we're even."

Lan Hua washed her hands clean, she was still a little guilty when she said this, those snacks were enough for her for half a month.

"..."

Su Mo nodded, naturally he wouldn't care about a little girl, his eyes were still on those chickens, if he touched them quietly, the old hen probably wouldn't notice it!

His appearance of wanting to touch but not daring, if his students saw it, they would definitely be disillusioned.How could their "Mr. Su", who was like a banished fairy, have such a "childlike innocence" side?What about his calmness?What about elegance?

Calmness and elegance are just a gorgeous coat left by the Su family to Su Mo. When they meet the same people, they will subconsciously wear it. On the one hand, it is self-protection, and on the other hand, it can integrate themselves into it.After putting it on, he is the Mr. Su that everyone envies.

The environment of the Su family made him lose the innocence and curiosity that a child should have when he was young. Now, once he leaves, he will unconsciously relax in front of people he feels no threat to, in front of these simple and simple "family members".Now this Su family is just an ordinary farmer's family.

"Mother said you can't go out yet, I'll take you to the river to play in a few days."

Lan Hua didn't know what was wrong with her. Seeing such a "docile and obedient" brother, she unconsciously wanted to treat him well. Why didn't she think this brother was pleasing to the eye before?

At this time, Su Mo thought that this was the life of a farm family, which was hard but plain and warm, even interesting.But soon, he will know how simple such an idea is.

In the evening, the family ate around the table under the sycamore tree. Halfway through the meal, a fat woman came in twisting her waist.His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, he went straight to Su Gui and said, "His second uncle, you should take good care of your third girl."

Su Gui was confused by this abrupt sentence, put down the bowl and said in a warm voice: "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"

"Huh, at noon someone saw orchids passing by our woodpile. The flower hen in our house lays two eggs a day, and it can't be shaken. I just went to see and it was gone. Stealing eggs at such a young age, how can it be grown up?" Aren’t you going to steal other people’s cattle?”

The sister-in-law of the Su family crackled the beans while pouring them out of the bamboo tube, and then took a few heavy breaths, which made her tired.

"..."

Su Mo watched the thick mouth open and close on that big oily face, and the words he spit out were extremely vitriolic, completely explaining what vulgarity is.It was the first time in his life that he saw such a woman, and it really opened his eyes.

"orchid--"

The third girl was accused like this, Su Gui and Xiu Niang looked at Lanhua together, they believed that their children would not steal.Orchid is usually greedy, but she probably won't take other people's things... Even though she thinks so, she still needs to confirm it in front of her sister-in-law.

"Father, mother, auntie wronged me, I didn't steal their eggs—"

Lan Hua stood up angrily, wishing she could poke a hole in the aunt's body.Thinking about how my parents doubted me, I felt extremely wronged.

"Xiu Niang, I know that since you have Cuihua, your life is very tight... We also don't want to help you, the head of the family even lent you two taels of silver. Now it's time for Da Niu to marry a wife... This time It’s fine with two eggs, and you can tell me when to pay back the money.”

The Su family's sister-in-law slowed down her tone, as if she was magnanimous and didn't care about it.

As soon as Su Mo heard the word "Cuihua", Su Mo's brain hurt, and the woman deliberately said it harshly.These days, he found that everyone in the Su family cared about his feelings and seldom called Cuihua by the name. After all, it was very awkward for a boy to name a girl.

Also, those two eggs are just an introduction, the real purpose of this woman is to ask for debts.

"Again, I didn't steal your eggs. Also, at that time uncle obviously lent my father a couple of—"

How could Lan Hua be wronged? Besides, she was also there when Dad borrowed the money, so she could see clearly.

"How can you, a little girl, interrupt your lord's words? This borrowing of money does not count as interest!" The Su family's sister-in-law reprimanded without changing her face, and then turned to look at Su Gui.

"Sister-in-law, you know the situation at home, it's really—"

Su Gui looked distressed, it wasn't that he refused to pay back the money, it was because he didn't have one at home.

"His second uncle, didn't you just get paid a few days ago?"

The eldest sister-in-law of the Su family came prepared, but the head of the family was too embarrassed to speak, so she had to sing for this black face.

"The money is for my brother's life. Is the aunt trying to force him to death? Who hasn't had a sad time? You and uncle know this truth best."

Taohua hadn't said anything, but now she sneered, her uncle's family had a hard time before, and her parents had a lot of subsidies, not to mention one tael, even five taels.The money my uncle earned from doing business in the past two years would not be enough for Daniel to marry two daughters-in-law, but he kept urging her family for the life-saving money.

"Yes, what Tao Hua said is also reasonable. I don't want the interest, I just need to pay back the one tael."

The eldest sister-in-law of the Su family is also a fine person. Her second niece can understand the meaning inside and outside the words. In addition, Taohua is a shrewd and capable person, and she is a good person. Maybe she will climb a high branch in the future and be able to It is better not to offend or not to offend.It's just that the one tael of silver has to be returned no matter what.

Having reached this point, he said coldly, "Ma'am, don't worry, I will send you this tael of silver in three days."

Upon hearing this, the eldest sister-in-law of the Su family immediately smiled and said, "Look at what you said, niece. Since there is such a sentence, why don't you worry about it?" After speaking, she twisted her body and swayed away.

Su Gui picked up the porridge and drank Siri Hulu, the porridge had already been completely cold, and he didn't know what it was like.

"Peach Blossom, you have been saving for a year..."

Seeing her beautiful daughter, Xiu Niang felt sad for a while, how many nights would it take for a tael of silver!Looking at the clothes on her body, it was from the year before last, so it's useless for me to be a mother.

"You can earn money when you run out of money, but I just can't understand the virtue of the big lady."

Tao Hua's expression was calm, since she had already said the words, she would not regret it.

"It's all because of me—" In fact, it was the former Cuihua...

This is the first time that Su Mo really realizes the difficulty of not having money, not only the material embarrassment, but also the precious dignity-it is said that money is not everything, but without money, everything is impossible. He didn't think so before, but now he deeply It makes sense.

The reason for this family's financial difficulties is seeing doctors to prescribe medicines. It is this weak body that has dragged down the whole family. Now that he has become the master of this body, he cannot allow himself to be a burden.

Since he has been weak and sickly since he was a child, it is inevitable to take medicine in the future, and this money cannot be saved.If you can't save money, you can only open source...

"Silly boy, it's not what you want to be sick, and you have to drink such bitter medicine every time... Mother is also sad to see you suffer. If mother gives birth to you healthy and healthy, you don't have to look back at the tiger. They play--"

For her son to have such thoughts, Xiuniang was both surprised and distressed, and poured out what she kept in her heart on weekdays.

"Little brother, I—"

It was rare for the family to sit together and openly said that Lan Hua originally had some feelings of resentment, but this conversation reduced a lot.In the past, she always felt that her brother was bad, but she never thought that he was also bad.When he was running, jumping, climbing trees and down the river, he couldn't do anything... Thinking about it this way, it's really pitiful.

"Since we've become a family, no one will drag the other down. It's justified to support each other."

After all, he is the head of the family, Su Gui made a final decision with one sentence, and what he said was powerful.

"Master, it's rare that you got the point!"

Xiu Niang smiled, usually he is very stupid, he only knows how to bury his head in his work, and he has been with him for most of his life, and he has never heard any sarcasm.

No one thought that Su Mo's phrase "It's all my fault" at the beginning unexpectedly untied the knot that had troubled everyone for many years.

Until the lamp was blown to sleep, everyone thought that the turmoil was over, but they didn't know that Su Mo started to be dazed because of this—he had to make money!

The problem is, before time travel, he was a university lecturer, and he could only shake his pen and move his mouth, but now he really answered that sentence - useless is a "scholar".
