A Happy Farmhouse: After becoming the group's favorite, the whole family rises
Chapter 107 A chance encounter?
After breakfast, Tian Danian planned to go to the old hunter’s house halfway up the mountain, his third grandfather’s house, the old village chief’s house, and his second grandfather’s house.
This was the "task" that Tian Xiaoman left for his father last night.
What are you going to do?
——Of course there is something big to do!
Tian Xiaoman asked his father to tactfully remind these families that it would be best if they also stock up some food.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a lot, 1,800 kilograms is fine.
Of course, whether they say it or not, they have done their best, and whether they stockpile or not is up to them.
No one can predict what the current situation will be like, but if there is any emergency, there is no need to panic as long as Liang is at home.
At least it can be used to deal with emergencies, so as not to eat up all the funds.
Every household has old and young, and no matter which family it is, it is a big family, and it is not good for anyone to be hungry.
"Wife, I'm going to Uncle San's house first. By the way, tomorrow is Laba Festival, I can't go empty-handed. See if you have anything else at home, I'll take some away."
Wang smiled and said, "You don't have to tell me. I've already prepared it."
During every festival, Tian Danian would send gifts to the elders of these families. This was his way of showing his love. After all, he had relied a lot on the help of these families when he was young.
The holiday gifts prepared by Wang were quite generous, with two items for each family. One of them was a piece of meat, weighing about three pounds, and the other one varied from person to person.
Since the old hunter lives alone, I have to give him some practical things, in addition to the meat, there is also half a bag of rice.
The gift from Third Grandpa was several kilograms of pastries, because Changsheng, Xiaomiao and Tietou were still children, and the pastries could be enjoyed by both adults and children.
As for the old village chief, two pounds of tobacco were added - this thing was the old village chief's favorite. Tian Danian would buy some and send it to him almost every year, and this pleased the old village chief more than other food.
As for the second master, in addition to a piece of meat, there was also a jar of wine. The wine was brought back from the provincial capital last time and cannot be bought in the county town.
The second master was a heavy drinker and would have a drink every night before dinner. This was something everyone in Tianjia Village knew.
It’s just that the second master never gets drunk and acts crazy. Sometimes when he drinks too much, he just blushes at most.
Looking at the piles of things on the table, Tian Danian sighed, "Oh! I just don't know if my second uncle and the others can come back for the New Year this year?"
The last time I saw my second uncle’s family was before the Chinese New Year last year. At that time, my second uncle brought two cousins back to the village to worship their ancestors.
By this calculation, he hasn't seen his second uncle's family for a year.
When Wang heard what Tian Danian said, her face became a little embarrassed. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was a little unhappy.
Wang placed the basket she had just turned out heavily on the table in the main hall. The needle and thread in the basket trembled a few times and almost fell to the ground.
"You! Forget about that family. They are rich people, and they don't want to have anything to do with our poor relatives! Even if they come back, I'm afraid they won't look down on your little thing. Have you forgotten what happened in the past? I'm telling you, even after so many years, I haven't forgotten it. I have a good memory."
Tian Danian also looked unhappy. He knew that there was nothing wrong with what his wife said.
Second Uncle's family really looked down on their poor relatives. When they returned to the village, Second Uncle and his family could at most talk to the old village chief's family. Even going to see Second Grandpa, they were reluctant.
As for facing my third uncle's family and my own family, I won't be able to face it well.
Tian Danian was used to looking at his wife's expression. He knew he couldn't continue this topic, otherwise - his wife would be angry, so he immediately changed the subject.
"Okay, then I'll go to Uncle San first, you go ahead and do your work."
Tian Danian went out quickly carrying the pastries and a piece of meat.
"Mom, don't you want to go with us?" Tian Xiaoman asked.
Wang shook her head. "I won't go. I only need to finish making a cotton coat for Hanhan. Before Laba Festival, I want to let Hanhan wear new clothes."
Hanhan, who had just entered the main room, happened to hear what Wang said and smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed. "Thank you, auntie. I haven't worn new clothes in several years."
Tian Danian came out of his house, wrapped his clothes tightly, and walked towards the north end of the village.
The shoes made a crunching sound as they stepped on the snow.
Because he came out early, there was no one walking around in the village and it seemed very deserted, especially the footprints left by him, which became the only eye-catching thing in the snow.
Tian Danian walked with his head down, just wanting to get to his uncle's house as soon as possible. The weather was getting colder day by day, and after being out for a while, he felt as if his whole body was frozen.
He was wearing a new cotton-padded jacket made this year. If it was an old cotton-padded jacket from last year, he would have been shivering from the cold.
Moreover, Tian Danian also found that this winter seemed to be colder than the winters in the past decade or so.
The severe cold weather described in the proverb "The seventh and eighth days of the twelfth lunar month are so cold that your chin will freeze off" has not occurred for many years. This winter is probably the coldest winter in recent years.
Tian Danian was thinking about something in his mind and didn't notice the woman who was walking hurriedly towards him.
"oops--"
It was not until Tian Danian bumped into the woman opposite him that he stopped his hurried steps.
Out of instinct, seeing the person opposite him about to fall, he quickly reached out to grab him.
He swore to God that at that time, there was no distinction between men and women in his mind. He just wanted to try his best to prevent the person he hit from falling in the snow.
It's so cold today, and it hurts so much if you fall.
When Tian Danian saw clearly that the person he was holding was actually a young woman, he was so scared that he immediately let go.
The young woman was about to fall down when she was held back by Tian Danian. Who would have thought that Tian Danian would let go of her hand in just a moment.
The young woman didn't stand properly at all, and between the pulling and spreading, she fell down completely.
"Oh my god!"
The young woman cried out in pain again. Tian Danian was in a panic and wanted to help her, but it was inconvenient, so he could only stand there and ask, "Are you okay? I left in a hurry and didn't see you!"
The young woman fell to the ground, but luckily she landed on her butt first and didn't fall too badly.
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Tian Danian with tearful eyes, "It hurts so much—"
Only then did Tian Danian realize that the person he bumped into was actually the young widow Li Xianghe from the village.
At this moment, Tian Danian was extremely grateful that he had let go just now.
Otherwise, if someone sees you, there might be all kinds of gossip.
The women in the village were particular about right and wrong and never avoided people. Occasionally, when they walked by, he could hear a few words. The things those women talked about the most were about the young widow.
In short, anything to do with this young widow is definitely not a good thing.
Tian Danian and the young widow's deceased husband, Tian Erliang, were much older than each other and were not familiar with each other, so Tian Danian and the young widow had rarely met each other.
Later, the young widow's husband fell into the river and drowned early. In order to avoid suspicion, Tian Danian dared not get involved with the young widow.
At this moment, Tian Danian had a premonition that he should leave quickly.
