The lucky girl came to the ruffian of the peasant family to pester him

Chapter 79 Whose happy event is so sad (4)
"Sweet, Wen Hai, you are back, how are the paintings selling?"

"It's sold out." Tang Tiantian said, she found a place to sit down, her foot was almost broken.

"How much did you sell for? Is it good?" Mrs. Li was very excited when she heard that she had made money again.

"Take" Tang Tiantian smiled, took out copper coins one by one from her body, and handed them to Mrs. Li.

"Mother, come and help you count!" Li's brows were smiling, and when she saw the money, she was as happy as a child.

Seeing Mrs. Li's happy look, Tang Wenhai shook his head and smiled. The family had never seen any money, and Mrs. Li counted the money he earned these days every time.

"Oh, a lot, a lot, 99 Wen, so much, it will take us a while." After counting twice, Mrs. Li put it on with a rope.

"There will be more." Tang Tiantian said with a smile.

Seeing so many copper coins, Mrs. Li suddenly became sad, and tears fell down.

"Mother, what are you doing! Our life is getting better and better, why are you crying!" Tang Tiantian hurriedly took out her handkerchief, and looked at Li in confusion.

"Hehe, you're right, don't cry, don't cry." Hearing Tang Tiantian's words, Li smiled through tears.

"Mother, did someone come here when we were not at home?" Tang Wenhai asked suspiciously.

"No, don't think too much about it. Mother is just happy. If your father is here, you will be able to make a fortune, and our life will be better. You don't have to look at people anymore. Mother is happy."

Li Shi explained while wiping away tears.

"Mother, don't cry, life is getting better and better, you should be happy. In the future, when we have money, we will build a big house, and then I will find a beautiful wife for my brother and give birth to you. Grandson, you will be able to enjoy yourself when the time comes."

Tang Tiantian hugged Li Shi's arm, grinning, thinking about a better life.

"You child, you said it so fast, it's all right, you are all hungry too! Mother will cook for you."

Mrs. Li stuffed the money into Tang Tiantian's hand and stood up.

"Mother, put it away!" Tang Tiantian handed the money to Mrs. Li.

"Hey, mother is a hard-working person. Last time, those were enough to buy some food. You can put these away! Mother is afraid that mother will not look down on the money."

As Mrs. Li said, she entered the kitchen, turned her face, and her face was immediately dimmed. When Tang Tiantian and the others were not at home at noon, she was in the yard and heard footsteps coming from outside the door from time to time. I didn't dare to look, and I didn't know who it was. The most worried thing was the thief.

"Did someone come over when we were not at home?" Although Li categorically denied it, Tang Wenhai still doubted it.

"Well, I saw a lot of footprints at the door. It seems that there is more than one person, and my mother won't say who is here!" Tang Tiantian frowned.

Mrs. Li didn't say anything, and Tang Tiantian and Tang Wenhai didn't force her to ask. They came back late in the afternoon, and it was too late to boil the sugar. So, after lunch, Tang Tiantian's family started weaving corn whips.

Li Shi and Tang Tiantian weaved it together, and Tang Wenhai used a wooden plug to drive it into the earth wall, and then hung the weaved corn on it, so as to prevent it from getting moldy and to expose it to the sun.

I was busy until the end of the afternoon, and finally finished hanging the corn on the two acres of land.

Early the next morning, as soon as Tang Tiantian woke up, she saw Tang Wenhai rushing back from the outside carrying a bundle of sugarcane.

"Brother, you went out so early?"

"Go out early, and people in the province will see it." Tang Wenhai put the sugar cane on the ground, closed the door, used a wooden stick to push it in from the inside, and started to fetch water.

Tang Tiantian took a knife and chopped the sugar cane into sections, then put them in the water and cleaned them.

Seeing that the two brothers and sisters started to get busy early in the morning, Mrs. Li was not far behind. He scooped up the water in the water tank halfway into the pot and started to boil hot water.

Put the washed sugar cane into the pot, and Li's family cooked the pot. Tang Tiantian brought a bamboo pole and prepared to peel a thin slice out. Yesterday, before Yu Linfeng left, Tang Tiantian insisted on taking his Return the dagger to him. When Zhong Zhong came back from the county seat, he also forgot to buy a blade. Seeing that there was no knife to shovel the sugar painting, Tang Tiantian had to find another way.

"What are you going to do? Brother, come and help you." Seeing Tang Tiantian struggling with a big knife in one hand and a bamboo pole in the other, Tang Wenhai walked over.

"I want to get a thin piece of bamboo pole. I forgot to buy a blade yesterday and came back. I don't have anything to shovel sugar."

Tang Tiantian explained.

"Isn't Mr. Yu's dagger in our house? Why don't you just use that dagger?" Tang Wenhai asked suspiciously.

"I returned it to him when he left yesterday."

"Give it back to him, how is it possible, I saw that dagger, it was clearly on the table! I put it away after seeing it yesterday."

As soon as Tang Wenhai finished speaking, Tang Tiantian stopped moving.

"Really, where is the dagger?"

"Wait, I'll get it for you. I thought you put it there. I was afraid it would fall on the ground and break it, so I put it away." Tang Wenhai explained as he entered the house.

When Tang Tiantian saw the dagger in Tang Wenhai's hand, Tang Tiantian frowned. He pulled it down, or he put it here on purpose.

Don't worry about how the dagger is still in her home, Tang Tiantian likes this dagger very much, and it is very easy to use.

After the sugar was boiled, it was time for breakfast. The big pot boiled the sugar, and the small pot cooked the rice. After the meal, the family of three started making sugar paintings again.

Li's cooking pot, Tang Wenhai stirred the syrup, while Tang Tiantian was sweating while steaming, still keeping her eyes fixed on her flowers.

I go to the county once every two days, and I make more than [-] each time. I know that children like sugar figurines. Tang Tiantian basically makes small things, sugar figurines, and sugar paintings. She also makes some bigger ones. sugar painting.

After twenty days in a row, Tang Tiantian earned a tael of silver. The happy Li made a meal of steamed buns with white noodles for the two brothers and sisters to eat.

"Mom, why do you only make two?" Tang Tiantian asked puzzledly, pointing to the two white flour steamed buns in the steamed bun box. Affordable!

"You two can just eat. Mother is an adult, just eat whatever you want." Mrs. Li picked up the cornbread, which was half cornmeal and half white flour, and started to eat.

Compared with eating pure cornmeal before and squatting in the toilet for half a day, now I can eat buns that are half white flour and half cornmeal, which is already heaven and earth.

"Mother, you don't need to save so much. Isn't our family able to make money now? It will get better and better in the future."
