Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction

"I didn't pay attention to what was on the living room table. Okay, I'll go check it out later." Liu Fangmei really didn't pay attention to what was on the living room table. After all, her stomach had been growling loudly since she went downstairs, so the first thing she did was go to the kitchen to cook.

"There are only six pink ones, they must be my sister's. There seems to be Dad's salary for this month on the table, but we didn't look closely." The two of them had just sat down at the table to eat. Because the tea set was quite long, they didn't need to move anything else, which provided enough space for them to eat.

Now that they have this place, it's much simpler for their father to hand over his salary. Every month after receiving his salary, he keeps what he needs and puts the rest on the table in the living room. When their mother comes, she puts it away.

Of course, they would still write letters, one every month. That way, when they went to town to pick up apricots, everyone would assume that their father had sent them a stipend. Sometimes they would also pick up some other things, just as if their father had sent them. In this way, their family's belongings could appear legitimately.

"Let me go check. We'll go to your grandpa's house first and have them bring the furniture over for us. Your dad ordered it before, but he's been too busy lately, and I forgot about it." Honestly, if she hadn't just mentioned her husband and seen her two sons cleaning the old furniture at home, she would have completely forgotten that her husband had ordered furniture from Uncle Qiao.

"Okay, how about I go to Grandpa Qiao's house first and see if Uncle Qiao is there?" Although the two of them are strong, outsiders don't really know that, so on the surface, the adults still have to help bring these furniture back.

“Okay, you go ahead. Xiaoyu and I will move these old pieces of furniture to a different location. Once the new furniture arrives, we’ll clean it and move the things out of the boxes over.” Liu Fangmei thought it was a good idea. She was also looking to work with the soybeans, so she decided to let her son go.

She was thinking of going over to help later, but as soon as she finished washing the millstone, she heard her son's voice. Her younger son reacted much faster than her; as soon as he heard the sound, he rushed out and opened the door.

Leading the way was Qiao's son, who was carrying a small kang table. Behind him were Old Master Qiao and his two sons, pulling a sled with cabinets and tables inside.

"Uncle Qiao, I'm sorry, I forgot for a moment. I also ordered furniture, and I'm sorry to trouble you to make this trip..." Liu Fangmei had already poured several cups of hot water in the room, all with a little brown sugar added.

"Ji Xuan's family, I wanted to send it over to you a few days ago, but you weren't here. Come, come, you arrange it, have your brother Dashan and the others move the things in." Old Master Qiao smiled and quickly directed his two sons to prepare to move the things.

The old man did come a few times, but the door was never opened. He knocked but no one was home, so he didn't bring his things over.

It took more than half an hour to finally arrange where the furniture went. When seeing Grandpa Qiao off, Liu Fangmei secretly slipped a piece of pork weighing about two pounds into his hand.

The old man happily carried his things home, smiling all the way.

After seeing off the Qiao family father and his two sons, Shi Tou hurried to fetch water to prepare for cleaning the new furniture. Xiao Yu was helping his mother grind beans with the stone mill.

The reason is that if the stone mill is not used when it is wet, it will freeze inside when they want to use it, and they will have to add hot water again.

I ground a whole bucket of beans. The water I used to grind the beans was slightly warm, otherwise it would freeze immediately when I poured it out, and I wouldn't be able to make it at all.

When the beans were ground, Liu Fangmei slapped her forehead and exclaimed, "What a stupid thing to do! Why couldn't I just move the stone mill into the kitchen? That way it would be warmer, and the water wouldn't be cold as soon as it came out, saving you so many trips."

Even though his silly son makes so many trips to the kitchen, he's still all smiles.

"Then let's move the millstone inside next time we grind beans. It's all warmed up now, and running around will warm you up, so it's nothing." Xiaoyu really didn't think it was a big deal; once you're better, your body won't feel stiff anymore.

It was so cold, at least -20 degrees Celsius. I felt stiff from the cold when I walked around the yard.

Although he came to grind the beans, his mother was worried that he wouldn't be able to do it, so she always did it herself. He would only occasionally help them sweep up the beans or run to the kitchen to fetch some warm water.

In just one hour, they had already finished grinding a large bucket of beans. Shi Tou, who had finished cleaning the furniture, was already in the kitchen boiling water with his sister. Seeing them bring in the ground beans, Shi Tou quickly scooped out half of the water from the pot.

The two of them couldn't do the cooking of soy milk and the curdling, so their mother had to do it all herself. Two hours later, all the tofu was pressed under the stones, and the siblings each drank a bowl of soy milk in the kitchen.

In this kind of weather, you need to drink something hot, but the little girl's eyes were bigger than her stomach. She made soy milk, but she also wanted to eat tofu pudding and roasted sweet potato. In the end, she drank the soy milk and ate only a small bowl of tofu pudding before she couldn't eat anymore.

Not to mention sweet potatoes, she could only look at them. If she ate any more, she would definitely be too full to walk, and her mother would never let her act so recklessly. So, while she was staring longingly at the sweet potatoes, her mother simply dragged her away.

"You naughty girl, don't you know how big your belly is? Look at your belly, if you keep eating, you'll turn into a little fat pig..." Liu Fangmei muttered all the way as she carried the little girl back to the main room, settled her on the kang (a heated brick bed), gave her a digestive tablet, and told her to take it first.

"Mom, I'm not very full now, I don't need to take digestive pills." Xia Yutang felt that she could still eat a little more sweet potato, and it really wasn't time to take digestive pills.

Liu Fangmei didn't believe the little girl's words at all and directly stuffed the digestive tablets into her mouth: "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and eat the digestive tablets."

Xia Yutang reluctantly opened her mouth and ate the digestive pills, but after swallowing them, she crawled to the corner of the cabinet and made all her toys. She hadn't played with these toys in a long time; she would have forgotten about them if her older brother hadn't taken them out while cleaning the cabinet. She had so many toys outside.

I wonder if having so many toys will make all the other kids in the village envious. Her father, inspired by something, actually made her many toys like those from later generations out of wood, such as building blocks and puzzles. Although they were simple, they were enough for her at three and a half years old.

Her father also made those flashcards out of wood; each one was very thin, and the characters were written very beautifully.

Her two older brothers planned to use the flashcards their father made to teach her to read, write, and do arithmetic next spring.
