  Chapter 47 Borrowing Clothes

  Tian Shao watched Sanya carefully carry the bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen, and said with a smile, "I'll clean up the bowls and chopsticks. You go and test Siya and Wuya to see what they've learned these days, do you still remember?"

   San Ya was worried that washing the dishes would stain her clothes, so she responded immediately when she heard this.

  Li Guihua pushed Tian Shao away and said, "Go to my room and get the kerosene lamp and go back to read a book!"

  Before, she believed that Tian Shao would not be able to pass the exam, so she did not support her, but now that Director Li and her mother valued her so much, she felt that her daughter might not be able to pass the exam, otherwise others would not value her so much.

   "No, you have been tired all day and take a good rest."

  Tian Dalin pulled Li Guihua and said, "Listen to me, just sit here and rest for a while."

  Although it is a pity not to have a son, these five daughters are all very filial, and he feels that all these years of hard work are worth it.

   Tian Shao is very satisfied with Tian Dalin's attitude, and thinks that after she is admitted to the textile factory, she may be able to control the right to speak.

  The husband and wife were talking with their heads down, when suddenly someone outside shouted loudly: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law..."

  Li Guihua looked at the woman who was standing outside the fence with a basket, and said deliberately: "This lady didn't come out from the west today, and the third younger brother and sister came to our house!"

  Tian Dalin has three brothers, and Grandma Tian doesn’t like the eldest son favoring the two younger ones.Tian Dalin has reached the age of marrying a wife, and Grandma Tian wants him to marry the ugly and lame daughter of the captain of the village next door without offering a gift.Tian Dalin didn't want to, and it happened that he met Li Guihua at that time, and he fell in love with Li Guihua when they met for the first time.But Grandma Tian firmly disagreed with this marriage.In the end, Li Guihua compromised and said that the bride price could not be given, but she also put forward a condition, that is, the family must be separated after marriage.

   Unexpectedly, Grandma Tian would sweep Tian Dalin out after they got married, and neither the house nor the money would be distributed to the husband and wife.It was the former captain who came forward and divided the land between the husband and wife according to their heads.Tian Dalin was completely chilled by what Grandma Tian did. She was also worried that her bad reputation would affect her daughter's marriage, so she showed up during the holidays to give away some food, and she didn't come to the door at other times.

  As for Li Guihua, her mother-in-law died and never came.And Grandma Tian is patriarchal. Not only did she never give the five sisters a good look, but she always told the villagers that Li Guihua was a hen that didn't lay eggs.In this way, the two brothers Tian Erlin and Tian Sanlin always accused Tian Dalin of being unfilial.The same is true, Li Guihua never looked good when she saw them.

  Ma Xiaomei said: "Brother, sister-in-law, let me in first, it's hard to say standing at the door."

  When she said this, she deliberately opened the basket in her hand, revealing five white eggs inside.

   Li Guihua wanted to know what medicine was sold in her gourd, so she opened the door and let her in.She didn't want Ma Xiaomei to stare at Erya and San Ya as soon as she entered the courtyard. It was a waste of good clothes for these two ugly girls to wear.

  Because of the bad relationship between the two, the sisters ignored Ma Xiaomei.

  Li Guihua said impatiently: "If you have something to say, let it go quickly, if you let it go, put the thing down and get out of here."

Ma Xiaomei licked her face and said: "Brother, sister-in-law, it's not that someone told Feng'er a family relationship, and they will see each other after the summer harvest. The family is poor and has no good clothes, so I just want to wait for Feng'er to see each other.Erya wears this dress."

   She was worried about this a few days ago, but today she heard that Tian Shao brought back a large bag of clothes from the county, and she was moved.After hesitating for a long time, he decided to come over to try his luck. Knowing that Li Guihua was not good at talking, he deliberately brought five eggs.Fortunately, the clothes are good-looking.

   Erya refused as soon as she heard it: "No."

  Li Guihua knew that there was nothing good about this woman's visit. She sneered and said, "Didn't your niece marry into the county town? If you don't have any good clothes, ask your niece to borrow them!"

  If Li Guihua has a good relationship and comes to visit, Li Guihua may agree. After all, seeing each other is a matter of life, but Tian Erlin and Tian Sanlin don't want to take advantage of them.

  Ma Xiaomei said: "It's not for nothing, just borrow for one day, and I'll give you ten eggs."

  Li Guihua was very interested in exchanging clothes for eggs. She said: "The clothes are made of really good material. Ten eggs are too few. At least twenty eggs are needed."

   Ma Xiaomei screamed: "Why don't you go grab it?"

  Li Guihua hehe said twice: "I don't want to, I don't want to leave quickly."

  Ma Xiaomei wants to leave, but she can't still wear dusty clothes when she looks at each other, so that the man will have to look down on his daughter.She gritted her teeth and said, "Let Erya stand up and show me the clothes."

Erya wasn't happy at first, but she didn't object to being able to exchange twenty eggs a day, so she stood up cooperatively.She used to wear coarse clothes, but the bright fabric of this dress is soft and comfortable.

  Ma Xiaomei stepped forward and touched it, making sure that it was really true. Dingliang reluctantly agreed: "Here are five eggs, and the rest will be given to you on the day you pick up the clothes. But it must be as clean and bright as it is now, or else I won't want it."

  I said this on purpose because was worried that the clothes would get dirty or wrinkled when borrowed them.

   Li Guihua readily agreed.

   Ma Xiaomei scanned around and said, "Sister-in-law, where is Da Ya?"

  She also wanted to know what happened to the female officer in the textile factory?If Da Ya is really good friends with that female officer, she may be able to help buy some cloth or something if she asks her in the future.

  Li Guihua rolled her eyelids and said bluntly: "Nothing, hurry up, I'm busy here!"

   Seeing that Da Ya couldn't come out, Ma Xiaomei had no choice but to give the eggs to Li Guihua and then went back.

   Li Guihua confiscated the five eggs and put them in the kitchen cabinet.Then she said to Tian Shao: "Reading is a waste of time, first take twenty eggs to the county seat. Eat two tonics a day. When I finish eating, I'll ask your father to deliver it."

  Tian Shao answered after getting off and asked, "Mother, do girls in the village borrow clothes to wear?"

   Li Guihua said with a smile: "Not only do you look at each other, but many people borrow clothes when they get married. Our family used to be poor and no one came to the door. This time, it is also thanks to Mr. Li."

  Tian Shao understood that it was all caused by poverty.

   Seeing that he was about to go to bed, Li Sankui couldn't bear it any longer when he saw that Tian Shao hadn't moved, and said, "Cousin, didn't you say that you want to give the soda to Erya and San Ya? Why don't you give them to drink?"

  Li Guihua reacted very quickly and asked, "What soda?"

Li Sankui smacked his mouth, reminiscing about the taste: "Soda water is a kind of delicious water. Sister, Director Li gave me and my cousin a bottle, and my cousin took a sip and said that I would bring it back to my cousins."drink."

  Tian Dalin knew about the soda, and explained beside him: "It's a very expensive drink, and a bottle seems to cost five or six cents."

  Five or six cents can buy a bag of salt, but he is reluctant to buy it.

  Si Ya looked at Tian Shao, her eyes were almost glistening, and asked anxiously: "Sister, where's the soda? I want to drink it."

  Tian Shao forgot about the matter while she was busy, she went into the room and took out the soda for the four sisters to drink in turn.

  After drinking, Si Ya held the bottle and licked it while saying, "It's so delicious, big sister, when can I drink this soda?"

  Li Guihua couldn't help scolding again after hearing this: "What to drink, you don't earn enough to buy a bottle of soda in a day."

  Tian Shao smiled and said: "Mother, a bottle of soda is six points, but the bottle can be refunded three points, and you can refund it wherever you go."

   Upon hearing this, Li Guihua immediately put away the bottle, making Tian Shao secretly laugh.
