"It's been so hot lately that I can't eat. I'm feeling really bad. So, I happened to come across someone selling wild hawthorns in town, so I spent a few bucks and bought a big bag of them."
Zhu Lihua doesn't like sour things and quickly refused.
After chatting for a few sentences, Zhu Lihua praised Yang Liansheng in every word. Zhang Yingshi couldn't keep up with the conversation and quickly made an excuse to go home and cook.
In the hot summers of the past, there were always cicadas chirping in the trees, but today the sound has disappeared. After returning the hoe, Song Huilan hurried home.
There was no way around it, as most of the trees were bare, without even a leaf to provide shade, forcing people to quicken their pace.
This life is really not a life for human beings.
It's terribly hot.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Qin Tongtong squatting beside the vegetable patch, staring at the cucumbers that had just sprouted with greed. She didn't even move her eyes when she saw her come in.
Song Huilan turned around and quickly closed the gate, then started scolding her daughter.
"You short-sighted person, why are you looking at the melon vines? Can they produce more melons if you look at them for a few more seconds? You don't even know how to help with the housework at home. What's the point of me raising you?" Qin Zhimu used some connections to buy the melon seedlings and planted them in his own small vegetable garden.
Seeing the seedlings sprouting and the green leaves stretching out, they were reluctant to pick a few leaves to eat, and just waited eagerly for the melons to ripen.
No one is as diligent as Qin Tongtong, guarding her day and night.
"You should stop studying anyway. You're just wasting your money. You lazy bum should go to work with me." Seeing that her daughter didn't respond, she made a firm decision.
"Mom, at least I'm out of the room. Look, my brother lies in bed all day long. That's no big deal." Qin Tongtong's attention was finally drawn back to the matter of earning a job. She didn't want to be under the sun every day and get tanned like coal ash.
Song Huilan felt as if she had been stabbed in the foot, and immediately retorted, "How can you be the same as your brother? A money-losing thing..." She muttered the second half of the sentence in a low voice.
Afraid of being heard.
Old Mrs. Lu brought out five wild vegetable biscuits from the kitchen, sat down at the table, took a smaller one and started to eat it, and glanced at Song Huilan when she heard this.
"I heard that the two children of the second brother have gone to work?" Those two children are not as old as Gangzi.
"How can it be the same? My son is a good student, unlike those of them who just work in the fields to make a living." She immediately retorted.
The two children from the second family are destined to do hard labor all their lives.
She quickly tapped the back of Qin Tongtong's hand and glared at her.
I shouted for a long time but he didn't move. As soon as I ate, he came over.
Under her mother's murderous gaze, Qin Tongtong turned her hand, which was originally about to take a big pancake, and picked up a small one. Seeing the satisfied look on Old Lady Lu's face, she couldn't help but curl her lips secretly.
These two people have their hearts focused on their lungs.
Qin Zegang came out of the west room slowly, his eyes still sleepy. Seeing that they had all started eating, he was not panicked. Anyway, he and his father always kept their portions, and no one dared to touch them.
When he saw the green and yellow wild vegetable pancakes on the table, his eyes twitched and he said with a dark face, "Why are there wild vegetable pancakes again? I feel like vomiting after eating them every day~"
After saying this, he secretly glanced at Old Lady Lu out of the corner of his eye.
Song Huilan quickly picked up a big one and put it in his bowl.
"Eat quickly. We are not picky eaters. Many people want to eat this, but it's not available yet." She patiently persuaded her son.
Qin Zegang remained unmoved.
Old Mrs. Lu puffed out her cheeks and chewed the vegetable cake until it broke into pieces and swallowed it. After a while, she said, "Eat it quickly. When your uncle sends back the allowance this month, I'll make you something delicious..."
Qin Tongtong's eyes suddenly brightened up.
Only then did her brother reluctantly pick up the pancake and start eating.
Comparing yourself with others will really make you angry.
