A Happy Farmhouse: After becoming the group's favorite, the whole family rises

The next day, Tian Xiaoman got up at dawn.

Tian Xiaochun, who was sleeping in a daze beside her, opened his eyes when he heard the noise beside him.

"Little sister, it's still early and mother hasn't gotten up yet. What are you doing? Going to the toilet again?"

Tian Xiaoman complained in his heart: Second sister, is it possible that we can't get over this joke about the toilet?

"I have something on my mind and can't sleep. You can sleep for a while longer and don't worry about me."

Tian Xiaoman got up quietly, put on his clothes, washed his face, used some tooth powder to brush his teeth and rinse his mouth, then sat in the main room and began to daydream.

In the past, Tian Danian's family lived a hard life, and both children and adults in the family only used light salt water to rinse their mouths.

The tooth powder I use now was the one that Tian Xiaoman bought after she and Tian Danian went to the county town to sell ginseng.

In this era, there were no proper toothbrushes. The tool used to brush teeth was similar to a small version of a shoe brush, which was made of horse bristles, which were hard and had a strange smell.

Moreover, the touch of the gums is not very good when brushing, but it can still clean the teeth.

After a while, noises were heard from Tian Danian and Wang's room; the couple got up.

As soon as Wang opened the door, she saw her little daughter sitting in the main room, staring at the door in a daze.

She was not prepared and was shocked.

"Old Four, why are you up so early?"

"Mom, I can't sleep. Is Dad up yet?"

Wang nodded and said, "I got up and was about to go sweep the yard."

While the mother and daughter were talking, Tian Danian also came out after putting on his clothes.

It is now late autumn and all the leaves have fallen from the trees. The wind blows them all over the yard.

Especially since Tian Danian's family lived at the foot of Nanshan Mountain, next to the woods, the leaves blown by the wind would fill the yard every day.

Every morning, the first thing Tian Danian does when he gets up is to sweep the yard.

Tian Danian pushed the door open and saw the mother and daughter standing in the main room, staring at him. He couldn't help but wonder, "What's going on?"

Tian Xiaoman's face fell instantly, "Dad, I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that my elder brother was sick. Dad, why don't we go to the county town to see my elder brother today!"

Wang and Tian Danian looked at each other and thought that the younger girl had not seen her eldest son for many days and was missing her brother.

Tian Danian had the same idea, he smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I have nothing to do today. After breakfast, I will take you to the county town to see your eldest brother. Mother, didn't you make new shoes and new clothes for the eldest brother a few days ago? Get them ready and I will bring them to him later."

Tian Shitou works in a rice shop in the county town. Although he is young, only fifteen years old, he has already worked in the shop for two years.

He resembled Tian Danian in physique, a solid young man. He was also tall and strong. Normally, he was used as a strong laborer in the shop.

The rice shop where he worked usually only had a few days off every three months, and then they would go home.

It has been less than two months since he last left home. If he waits for his son to come back, it will take nearly another month. It would be a lie to say that the couple are not worried about their son who is alone.

After receiving a positive response from his father, Tian Xiaoman finally showed a smile on his face.

The excuse of "I dreamed that my elder brother was sick" was one that Tian Xiaoman came up with after tossing and turning all night.

What else can she say?

Could he tell his parents that he had sent a group of mice to investigate the Ma family, and that the Ma family was planning to do something bad to his eldest brother?

Even if Tian Xiaoman said it, Tian Danian and his wife wouldn't believe it, right? They would think that their little girl was either crazy or possessed by a demon!

Wang was a person of action, and she immediately packed the things to bring to her eldest son.

"I'm going to make breakfast right now. You two can go early and come back early."

Tian Xiaoman also had this idea, "Mom, I'll help you light the fire."

After breakfast, Wang handed a small bag to Tian Danian and said, "Dad, everything is in here. I also packed some of the bacon I made last time. Be careful on the road and come back early."

Tian Danian put the small bag on himself and said, "I don't need to worry about that. Wife, Lao Si and I are leaving now!"

As Tian Danian and his daughter Tian Xiaoman walked out of the main hall, the gate of the Tian family's courtyard was pushed open, and a tall boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old came in.

When Tian Danian saw the boy, he was stunned, "Boss, why are you back?"

Wang was also startled and hurried out to greet him, "Why are you back when the day hasn't even come yet?"

Originally, Tian Shitou came back once every three months. It’s been less than two months, so why is he back?

Tian Xiaoman also looked at the boy. The boy looked about 70% similar to Tian Danian. When the two stood together, anyone could tell that they were father and son.

However, at this moment, Tian Shitou's face was blue, his eyes were heavily covered with dark circles, and he looked exhausted. Even the few steps he took into the courtyard made him look light and weak.

Tian Xiaoman's mind moved, and he couldn't help but have a funny idea - could it be that what he said came true, and his elder brother was really sick?

Oh God, no, I was just saying that casually, please don't take it seriously.

Tian Danian was still calm, "Boss, come in and talk."

Wang welcomed her eldest son into the main room. Seeing that he was panting, she quickly poured him a bowl of warm water and handed it to him.

"Boss, drink some water and calm down."

Tian Shitou hurried along the way and was really thirsty, so he gulped down a bowl of water.

He left the county town before dawn and walked for more than half an hour. He also took a donkey cart on the way. It took him such a long and bumpy ride to get home.

He glanced at the bag on his father's shoulder and was slightly stunned. "Dad, are you going out?"

Tian Danian was stunned and quickly took off the bag on his back. When he saw his eldest son just now, he was so anxious that he forgot that he was still carrying the bag.

"I saw you were gone for two months, so I wanted to go see you. Now that you're back, I don't have to go."

Tian Shitou smiled, and when he smiled, he looked more like Tian Danian.

Wang was worried about her son, so she signaled Tian Danian to stop talking about those useless things, and she started asking more questions herself.

"Boss, what happened to you? Why did you come back after two months? Is the shop closed? I see you don't look well. Are you sick? Are you taking medicine? How about asking your third uncle to take a look?"

"Yes, if big brother is sick, we will treat him—" Tian Mutou also echoed, "Don't forget, our third grandfather is a doctor!"

Tian Shitou smiled at the Tian family and said a few words to comfort his parents so that they would no longer worry.

"Dad, Mom, I'm not sick, I just haven't been sleeping well recently and I don't have much energy during the day."

"That's it?" Wang didn't believe it. Looking at her son's condition, it was not just that he didn't sleep well!

Tian Shitou's eyes flickered, "Also - I've been having nightmares lately!"
