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

"Gululu-Gulu-"

When Tian Xiaochun brought the food, Tian Shitou, who was not very hungry before, immediately protested with his stomach.

He wolfed down most of the food on the table. He didn't stop until his stomach was full. He smiled embarrassedly at Tian Xiaoman who was sitting opposite him.

It's over! His appearance, like the reincarnation of a starving ghost, was seen by his younger sister. He hoped that his younger sister would not laugh at him.

He never thought that it would be better if he didn't laugh. When he laughed, Tian Xiaoman, who was sitting opposite him, also burst out laughing.

Tian Shitou scratched his head quickly, "I was in a hurry to come back from the county this time, so I didn't bring any gifts for you, little sister. When I come back next time, I will definitely bring you some candy."

Every time he received his wages, Shi Tou never spent it carelessly. Instead, he saved it and took it home and gave it to Wang for safekeeping.

Moreover, every time he came back from the county town, he would buy gifts for his younger brothers and sisters. Those things were not expensive, occasionally a red hairband or a few pieces of candy, which were considered as a little thought from him as the eldest brother to his younger brothers and sisters.

Shitou has always been fond of his mute little sister since she was young. Even if he doesn't have gifts for Tian Xiaochun and Mu Tou, he will always have one for Tian Xiaoman.

Shi Tou thought that Tian Xiaoman would nod as usual, but the next scene left Shi Tou dumbfounded.

He saw this sister whom he hadn't seen for nearly two months, smiled sweetly at him, opened and closed her mouth, and actually started talking.

"Thank you, brother!"

Tian Shitou subconsciously scratched his ears, as if he didn't believe what he heard, and then he looked at his father in shock.

"Dad! Did you hear what my little sister said just now? My little sister spoke! She spoke!"

Obviously, Tian Shitou was very shocked.

When he left home, he clearly remembered that his little sister could only make whimpering sounds and could not speak.

After not seeing each other for two months, he actually heard his little sister talking to him. It was unbelievable.

Shi Tou swallowed and felt that everything before his eyes was unreal.

"It must be that damn mountain spirit that's causing all this trouble. It's fine if it only torments me in my dreams, but now it's come to my house and is giving me hallucinations in broad daylight."

Hearing what his eldest brother said, Tian Xiaoman laughed, and even Tian Xiaochun and Mu Tou laughed. Wang and Tian Danian were concerned about their eldest son's face and forced themselves to hold back their laughter, but there was a bit more disgust in their eyes when they looked at their eldest son.

"What are you laughing at?"

Mu Tou coughed, took a step forward and patted his eldest brother on the shoulder, "Brother, my little sister has been able to speak for a long time, but you didn't come back, so you didn't know. It seems that you have been frightened by nightmares recently, and you associate everything with goblins and monsters."

When Shitou was hit on the point, his face turned red.

"You said our little sister can talk now?"

"Of course!"

Mu Tou puffed out his chest, looking very proud of himself.

"Not long after you left last time, our little sister could speak. Her voice is clear and crisp. She can say anything. And the way she calls me 'Third Brother' is so sweet."

Shitou certainly didn't miss the boasting in Mutou's words. He felt a little jealous, so he looked at Tian Xiaoman aggrievedly, "Little sister, call me 'big brother', otherwise, I will lose face."

Tian Xiaoman cooperated very well and called out "Big Brother", but Shitou felt that one call was not enough, and asked Tian Xiaoman to call him again and again. Only after Tian Xiaoman called him "Big Brother" more than ten times did Shitou raise his eyebrows at Mu with a proud look on his face.

"Third brother, what do you think? Isn't it nice for Xiaoman to call you big brother?"

Mu Tou was furious, "Brother, you are competing with me for favor!"

There was another burst of laughter in the room, and the atmosphere became cheerful.

Tian Shitou rested at home for three days in a row. During these days, he would occasionally dream, but he never had the nightmare of the peach tree blocking the road and causing him to hit his head and bleed.

His dreams now were just like usual, full of random things, and he forgot everything when he woke up. This made Tian Shitou feel much better, and he returned to being the energetic boy he used to be.

But while the Tian family was in great joy, the Ma family in Majiagou was in a gloomy mood.

Liao was so anxious that she was running around in the main hall. "Boss, I asked someone to find out. The eldest son of Tian Danian's family took several days off from work in the shop. He said he was sick and he didn't go to work these days. Oh my, who would have thought that he was actually a sickly person."

Ma Xiangzhi couldn't help but get a little anxious, "Mom, if he's sick and not in the county, what should we do with the plan we made before?"

She glanced calmly at her cousin who was sitting next to her and didn't say much, feeling anxious.

If she was delayed from marrying and becoming a lady in the county town, she would have no place to cry. She didn't want to marry a peasant and be busy in the fields every day.

Her mother said that she was born to enjoy a happy life, otherwise why did their family become better and better after she was born? Although the family has fallen on hard times in the past two years, that was due to the world and had nothing to do with her.

The girl sitting on the chair did not fail to notice when Ma Xiangzhi looked over, she just pretended not to see it.

The girl was tall and fair-skinned, making her a pretty lady, but her eyes, which were somewhat similar to Liao's, ruined the overall structure of her face and made her look a bit fierce.

"Aunt, this is not my fault. I haven't even gone yet, but the young man surnamed Tian has asked for leave. If it were you, I would just go to the Tian family and cancel the engagement between my cousin and that young man. Why did you have to go through all this trouble?"

Liao scolded, "What do you know!"

The girl moved her lips but did not dare to refute. Liao was always a hot-tempered woman and the girl was living under someone else's roof, so she could only lower her head in embarrassment. Her face was pale and blue and did not look good.

Liao also wanted to simplify the matter, but if the engagement was called off, the token of engagement would have to be returned. It was a dagger made of fine iron and was worth some silver.

When she was in the south, she asked someone to look at it. The person said that it was a good tool that could cut through iron like mud. If it was sold in a pawnshop, it might not be worth twenty or thirty taels, but at least ten or eight taels would still be worth it.

If something goes wrong in this marriage and it is the man's fault, their family can use this as an excuse not to return the token, and then they can get the dagger for free.

If you take it to a pawn shop and get ten or eight taels of silver in exchange, that would be a good thing.

But if the engagement is cancelled normally, the dagger has to be returned.

Therefore, the Tian family must be held responsible for the cancellation of the engagement.

Liao's eyes flickered slightly, and she was determined to get it - she didn't want to give back the things that had entered her pocket.
