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

Chapter 7: The Second Sister Who is “Both Literary and Military”

As Tian Xiaoman expected, dinner that evening was completely different from that in the morning.

Millet porridge was replaced with brown rice porridge, the amount of steamed sweet potatoes was reduced, and there were no steamed buns. As for the side dishes, since they were grown in the backyard of my home, I was not restrained and still filled two large plates.

Unlike others, Tian Xiaoman still had a bowl of millet porridge in front of him, and there were even some rice grains in it.

"Old Four, you're not well yet. Drink more millet porridge. Don't underestimate millet porridge. It has a nickname among us farmers."

"What is it?"

Tian Xiaoman was surprised.

"Hey, I know!"

Tian Xiaochun immediately replied with a smile, "Mom said that millet porridge is ginseng soup, and it is best for the body. Mom also said that when she was in confinement after giving birth to us, she drank this stuff every meal, so her body recovered so well."

Tian Xiaoman looked at the millet porridge in front of her, which was different from that of other people in her family, and felt sad.

"Mom, actually, I feel much better now. I don't need to be special anymore. I can also drink brown rice porridge."

"That won't do. You just had a fight. You should eat something good. This brown rice porridge will sore your throat. When you get better, you can eat as much as you want!"

In September, it gets dark early.

Not long after the meal, everyone went back to their own rooms, and after a while, the yard became quiet.

Only the oil lamps in Wang's and Tian Danian's rooms were still on; the others had already laid down on the kang to date Zhou Gong.

Especially Tian Xiaoman, maybe he had been lying on the kang for a few days. Today, he got up and walked back and forth in the village from north to south, and he was a little tired.

Almost not long after lying down on the kang, he fell into a deep sleep.

The previous second, Tian Xiaochun was still chattering with her, and the next second she heard her little sister snoring.

Tian Xiaochun smiled gently, tucked in the quilt that Tian Xiaoman had kicked away, then lay back down, turned over and fell asleep.

In the other room across from the main hall, Wang was busy with her work while talking in a low voice with Tian Danian.

In autumn, the men in the family had heavy work to do, and their shoes were almost worn out and could not be repaired.

These days, Wang and Tian Xiaochun had some free time, so they started making shoes for the men in the family.

What about Tian Xiaoman?

Even though she is already eleven years old, Wang Shi has never let her hold needle and thread since she was a child. Let alone making shoes, Tian Xiaoman herself cannot even sew clothes if they are torn.

"Did Third Uncle really say that?"

The person who was speaking was Tian Danian. He was already lying on the kang. In the afternoon, he turned over his sweet potato field again and brought back half a bag of sweet potatoes. It could be considered as turning over the field in disguise, and he was really tired.

"Yes, that's what my third uncle said. He said that Su Ji's pharmacy has that ointment. If you apply it, it will definitely not leave scars. Come to think of it, Su Ji's pharmacy is the best in Pinglin County. How could they not have ointment for scar removal? But my third uncle said that the ointment would definitely be more expensive."

Wang bit her lip, feeling a little sorry for the money, but still determined to buy it.

My daughter has a big scratch on her forehead, and I can’t let her get a scar.

"Dad, aren't you and Mu Tou going to the county town tomorrow? It's a good opportunity to go and find out how much the ointment costs."

"Okay, I'll make a note of it. When I get back from asking for the price, we'll discuss it."

After Wang finished sewing the last stitch, she turned off the light and went to sleep.

In Tian Xiaoman's room, she slept very restlessly.

Half asleep and half awake, she could always hear someone talking, which disturbed her so much that she tossed and turned and couldn't even have a good sleep.

The next day, Tian Xiaochun didn't need to wake her up.

She heard some rustling noises coming from Tian Xiaochun's side. When she opened her eyes, she saw Tian Xiaochun putting on his clothes quickly, so she stood up as well.

"Little sister, you should sleep a little longer. I will go and help mother light the fire."

"Second sister, I will go with you too."

Tian Xiaoman had her own little plans in mind. She wanted to go up the mountain with Xiao Miao and the others, so she wanted to get up early and perform well in front of Wang.

Maybe if I perform well, Wang will give in.

Sure enough, when Tian Xiaoman proposed to go up the mountain with Xiaomiao and the others, Wang was opposed at first.

Later, seeing that her daughter insisted and Tian Xiaochun promised to take extra care of her sister, Wang finally relented.

"Okay, Xiao Miao and the others will come to find you later, you two sisters can follow them, just a little bit -"

Wang looked at her two daughters steadily and said, "Please be careful and safe. Although our family is poor and food is scarce, you are the most important to me. Remember?"

The two sisters patted their chests and promised that they would go safely and return safely, and Wang was relieved.

Not long after breakfast, Tian Danian pushed the cart borrowed from his third grandfather's house, loaded a few bags of sweet potatoes and millet from his own home, and went to the county town with the wood.

At the same time, several children from Third Uncle's family, including Changsheng, also came to Tian Xiaoman's house.

Unlike the ease they felt when they met Tian Xiaoman, the other children were a little scared when they saw Tian Xiaochun. Even Changsheng, his uncle, was a little afraid of Tian Xiaochun and would glance at him from time to time when they spoke.

This really confused Tian Xiaoman!

While Tian Xiaochun was leading the way, Tian Xiaoman took a step behind and pulled Xiao Miao, who was walking with her arm around her.

"Why are you all so honest when facing my second sister?"

The vein on Xiao Miao's forehead jumped.

"I can't help it, Sister Xiaochun is so awesome!"

sharp?

Xiao Miao looked at Tian Xiaochun, who was walking in front of them with two baskets on her shoulders, and said in a low voice, "Sister Xiaochun is invincible in the village. Even my eldest brother couldn't beat her and was pinned to the ground and beaten several times."

It turned out that Tian Xiaochun had always had a boyish temperament and was straightforward. He also learned a few tricks from an old hunter halfway up the mountain, so he had always been invincible in the village.

Even boys of the same age as her, or even one or two years older, would not be treated well when they met Tian Xiaochun.

This made all the children in Tianjia Village behave as obediently as mice seeing a cat whenever they saw Tian Xiaochun.

There's nothing you can do. Their strength is there. If you don't behave yourself, you'll get beaten.

There were boys who were dissatisfied with Tian Xiaochun and came to challenge him, but they were always pinned to the ground by Tian Xiaochun after just a few moves.

From then on, no one dared to mess with Tian Xiaochun. Everyone called her Sister Chun Changchun in front of her and called her Tiger Mother behind her back.

Tian Xiaochun didn't care. Anyway, she couldn't hear what others said about her, so she just pretended not to know.

As for speaking to her face, so far, no one has dared to call her a tigress.

Because those people were already scared by her beating!

Tian Xiaoman was surprised. Her second sister was really good at sewing shoe soles and was invincible in the village in fighting!
