The splendid countryside of the princess

Chapter 24
Tang Dai is teaching my aunt, Li's to make dried tofu, tofu has been launched for a month, and the sales volume is also stable, so she is going to make tofu as well, and the family has an extra income, which happens to be put in the tofu workshop in the county Put them together for sale.

Tang Dai and her grandfather's family have also discussed. In addition to selling tofu and dried tofu in the small shop of the tofu shop, they also sell bean sprouts.Anyway, it's not troublesome. When my uncle delivers bean sprouts to the restaurant in the county town every day, he brings some to the store by the way.

Tang Dai not only taught her grandfather how to make soybean sprouts, but also mung bean sprouts. My grandfather has a lot of family members, so he was too busy.This month hasn't arrived yet, and they have made a lot of net profit, no worse than Tang Dai's tofu.

Suddenly hearing a commotion outside the courtyard, Tang Jue rushed into the courtyard and shouted: "Mother, the third grandma is back, and it was sent back by his son Tang Jiaxiao who is an official."

"Hey, the third grandma is back, and Brother Tang is back, let's go and see too." Mrs. Li replied, threw away the dried tofu in her hand, wiped her hands, and was about to go outside the courtyard.

"Mother, when the third grandma is back, don't we have to give back the third grandma? The family has no land to grow vegetables." It turned out that this was the reason why Tang Jue hurried home.

When Mrs. Li heard that the third grandma was back, she was only happy and forgot about the land.Hearing Tang Jue's question, he stood still.Yes, when people come back, the land will always be returned.Li subconsciously glanced at her little girl.

"Mom, don't rush to see the third grandma. She just came back, and there are many people going to her house to watch the fun. Let's go later and see if the third grandma is coming back to live or just go home to see."

Tang Dai pulled Mrs. Li to sit down.

"Mother, I've been thinking about the field all the time! We won't be tenanting the two-acre paddy field that Landlord Jia's family rents next year, right? I'm going to buy some land for my family. What do you think?"

"It's good to buy a field, but now my family is building a house and paying the rent for the tofu workshop. I'm afraid I don't have enough money!" Mrs. Li is worried about the money at home.

"We won't buy it for the time being. It was the beginning of winter yesterday, and we can't grow anything in the fields in the cold weather. We will buy it when the new year starts next year, just in time for spring planting. In the next few months, we will take a breath and save some money."

Hearing what Tang Dai said, Mrs. Li nodded her head in agreement.He lowered his head and thought about the four years when the third grandma went to her son, she came to the house once in the middle, and went back after staying for more than ten days.I don't know this time?
Tang Dai glanced at Li Shi's appearance and knew that she was anxious to see Third Grandma.

"Mom, let's go, I'll take a look with you! The third grandma came back from enjoying a good time outside, but she didn't know what delicious food she brought?" Tang Dai took Li's hand and went to the third grandma's house.

Mrs. Li laughed when Tang Dai said it was delicious.The third grandma liked chicks, and when she was still at home and didn't go to her son's place, she often stuffed the chicks with delicious food. The chicks fell in love with her very much, and she had to sleep with the third grandma at night!The little girl was only four years old at that time, I'm afraid I don't remember much!

The two of them crossed half of the village and arrived outside the third grandma's house. They saw, what a guy, there were many people outside, and a carriage was parked outside the house. The driver on the carriage was still sitting there and did not get off the carriage.Tang Dai was puzzled, is she leaving immediately?What are you doing back then?Lali stopped and stood outside, but did not go in.

Mrs. Li didn't understand why the little girl stopped her. Tang Dai said that there were too many people, and she would wait until the people dispersed.When Mrs. Li heard this, the two stopped and stood under a cypress tree outside the house and waited.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a middle-aged man in his forties came out, dressed in a blue long silk scholar robe, with fair skin and a Chinese character face.The elegant temperament of the scholar is mixed with the slickness cultivated in the officialdom, and there is no one else behind him.The man walked up to the carriage, stepped into the carriage, the driver turned the carriage, and left the village.I didn't see the third grandma coming out to see her off.

"It's Brother Tang! Huh? Why did you leave as soon as you came back? The third grandma isn't going?" Li muttered.

The spectators around saw that the official had left and only an old woman was left at home. They felt that there was no excitement to watch, and the discussion broke up.Tang Dai and Mrs. Li saw no one was there, so she went to the third grandma's house.

"Third Auntie!" Li yelled excitedly.The husband of the third grandmother is the third eldest cousin of the old man Tang, so Mrs. Li called her the third aunt.

"Third grandma!" Tang Dai looked at the old man in front of her, and followed suit.

"Hey, this is a chick, right? She will grow up to be a big girl." The third grandma was sitting alone on a small stool in the main room, looking up and squinting for a long time, seeing that it was Mrs. Li, she hurriedly greeted her.

"San Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Li looked at the old man who was so thin that a gust of wind could blow him away. His hair was all white, his face was full of wrinkles, and there were inconspicuous white shadows in his eyes. Looking at her mother and daughter, he squeezed out a smile to greet them.

"It's nothing, my child. I'm getting old and suffering from eye disease, so I can't see a little bit." The third grandma heard that Li's voice was a little choked, and hurriedly comforted her.

Tang Dai could also see that the old man was not doing well with his son, and the white shadows in his eyes probably had cataracts.Ancient medical skills were underdeveloped. If they could still be cut with a knife in modern times, but in ancient times, the elderly would have to suffer. No wonder they were sent back to the village.What a filial piety!
"Mom, look at Third Grandma's house, which has not been lived in for a long time, and there is dust everywhere, so I need to help clean it." As he spoke, he picked up the wooden basin, went to the Changlong River in front of the house to fetch water, and found a rag to use as a wipe. Start dusting.Seeing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly took a broom to sweep the dust on the floor.

The third grandma wanted to stop her, but thinking of her unfilial son and daughter-in-law, her eyes turned red with sadness, and she began to cry.

"Third Grandma, you have to cry less, you know? Your eye problem is caused by crying." Seeing this, Tang Dai took out a handkerchief from her bosom, gently tested Third Grandma's tears, and then persuaded her.

"Hey, good, good boy, it's hard for you." The third grandma stopped crying and was a widow at a young age. Who knows her suffering?That tears are the least expensive!Seeing that Tang Dai didn't dislike her and got close to her, it really didn't hurt in vain when she was a child, and I felt better.

The mother and daughter quickly tidied up the three main rooms, one main room, and one kitchen of the third grandma's house.The third grandma was invited to have dinner at home. At the dinner table, Tang Feng deliberately told jokes to make the third grandma happy.Seeing the happy family, the third mistress also became happy and chatted and laughed together.

After dinner, brother and sister Tang Feng and Tang Dai sent the third grandma back home, and Tang Dai decided to take the third grandma to the master to have a look at her eyes tomorrow.

From the beginning to the end, I didn't ask a word about the third grandma. If the third grandma didn't say anything, they didn't ask, so as not to make the old man sad!Just take care of her more in life in the future!

Mrs. Li sat alone in a daze for a while, and then sighed helplessly. The son of the third grandma ran away without staying at home for half an hour, and left the half-blind widowed mother alone at home. what?
