Wu Defu nodded and agreed.
Only Wu Degang snorted softly.
Lin Meishuang heard it, she looked up at the children. She was not worried about Wu Juan. Although she had a soft personality, she was a sensible person at heart.
Except Wu Degang. She glanced at Wu Degang's indignant little face and felt worried.
"Old Five!" Lin Meishuang asked, "Why didn't you bring Tian Zhuo to play today? The meat and egg cake we ate today were all brought back by Tian Zhuo's parents, and he is your younger brother, what are you doing?"
"Tian Tian complained! She said that I stole my sister's egg cake. What does it have to do with her? And they ate the candy and didn't give me any. Tian Tian even took my sister out. Who knows if she secretly gave candy to my sister!" Wu Degang said unhappily, and secretly glared at Wu Juan.
He has never eaten candy since he was a child!
"Wait for your sister! Don't cry when I beat you up later!"
Wu Degang immediately retracted his eyes and followed them obediently.
Seeing him like this, Lin Meishuang sighed helplessly and said nothing more.
After Lin Meishuang left, Tian Lisong also helped Lin Meixia support Song Jianjun back home.
Song Jianjun was so drunk that he was basically unconscious. Lin Meixia couldn't support him and look after the two children by herself, so Grandma Lin asked Tian Lisong to lend a hand.
Tian Tian saw that after her aunt and younger aunt left, her mother had to deal with the mess in the house alone, and she felt a little aggrieved for Lin Meiyu.
They are both daughters, and after her aunt came back, her grandmother kept asking her to take a rest. Her mother was always busy. Moreover, the house was a mess after dinner. There were two tables, big and small, and so many people eating. Her mother had to clean up all by herself. Just looking at those bowls of Tiantian made her feel worried.
She knew that her aunt's family was not well off, and that she had to do a lot of housework and her life was tiring.
She didn't necessarily want her aunt to work, she was just dissatisfied with Grandma Lin's attitude. If you even said, "Sit down and rest for a while, don't be so busy after walking all the way, and don't be in a hurry to eat!"
It makes people feel comfortable when listening to it, and makes them happy when working.
But now Grandma Lin is indifferent to their family. As soon as her mother comes back, she asks her to work without saying a soft word. She does the most work. Tian Tian feels sorry for her mother.
Tian Tian couldn't bear to let Lin Meiyu do so much work alone, so she quietly rolled up her sleeves and helped Lin Meiyu clean up.
"Tiantian! You don't need to do the work here. I'm going to get you covered in oil. Go and keep your brother company. I'm worried that he won't sleep well and will roll off the kang soon." Lin Meiyu said
Tian Zhuo was young and had walked for a long time in the morning. After dinner, he could not hold on any longer and fell asleep in the hut.
"It's okay, I've covered him with a blanket. Let me help you, otherwise how long will it take you to clean up so many dishes and chopsticks?" Tian Tian said.
She got angry when she saw the dining table where those grown men had eaten. How could they make it so dirty? There was cigarette ash and fallen food on it, and there were handkerchiefs stained with what looked like snot or something else. The whole table reeked of alcohol, and Tian Tian's mysophobia was almost aggravated.
She suppressed her nausea and swept all these things to the ground with a rag. Then she gathered all the leftovers on the plates together, put the remaining empty plates and bowls in a basin and brought it to the kitchen. There was warm water in the pot, so she scooped some water into it to wash the dishes.
The thing that Tian Tian hated most since coming to this world was washing dishes. She had no detergent and no grease remover. No matter how she washed, the dishes always had a strong smell of oil and were slippery to the touch, which made Tian Tian very uncomfortable.
Tian Tian took out the washed bowls and put them directly into the pot, scalded the bowls again with the hot water in the pot, and then put them in the bowl rack and left them there.
At this time, Lin Meiyu brought another basin of dishes and chopsticks over. Seeing Tian Tian's sullen face, she knew that she hated washing dishes, so she said, "Mom has cleaned both tables. You go into the house and sweep the floor. I'll wash these dishes."
Tian Tian didn't want to wash the dishes anymore. After washing her hands with soap, she went into the house to sweep the floor. All the garbage on the table was thrown onto the floor. Together with the steamed buns and peanut shells she had just carved, there was no room left on the floor for her feet.
But sweeping the floor is much better than washing dishes. Tian Tian took the broom and swept all the garbage together. During this time, Grandma Lin felt it was too noisy, so she said a few words to Tian Tian and asked her to keep her voice down.
Tian Tian didn't say anything and swept the floor even harder!
Grandma Lin was very nice. As soon as Lin Meiyu finished cleaning up the kang table and moved it away, she immediately spread out the quilt and went to sleep, saving the whole family from working hard here, without saying a word.
Tian Tian was still complaining while sweeping the floor and tidying up the house. But actually, it wasn't that noisy because Tian Tian was just sweeping the floor. The floor was full of caterpillar shells and peanut skins, not small food bags that made a rustling sound when she swept it. What kind of noise could sweeping these things make?
It's just the sound of a broom sweeping across the ground. How could she be quieter?
Tian Tian swept all the garbage on the ground together, picked it up with a scoop, took it to the kitchen, and burned it in the stove.
Lin Meiyu was still washing dishes. Tian Tian rolled up her sleeves and was about to help, but was stopped by Li Meiyu.
"I'll be done washing soon, so you don't have to get your hands dirty." Lin Meiyu said.
"What do you mean washed? There are still so many bowls and plates left in your pot." Tian Tian was not blind, so she could see that there were still a lot of unwashed things left in Lin Meiyu's pot.
Lin Meiyu works carefully, unlike Tian Tian who washes carelessly, so naturally she is slower than Tian Tian.
Just as the mother and daughter were vying to wash the dishes, Tian Lisong came back with a cold look on his face. Seeing the mother and daughter were going to wash the dishes, he rolled up his sleeves without saying a word.
"There are not many left. Let me wash these. Meiyu, you go into the room and rest for a while. Spread the quilt while you are at it. After we wash these dishes, we will go back to the room and sleep." Tian Lisong said.
Since Tian Lisong came over to wash the dishes, Lin Meiyu and Tian Tian stopped arguing. After washing their hands, they went to the west room to make the bed.
It's too late tonight, it's already dark, and my two homes are quite far away, so I definitely can't make it back today. But Tian Tian and the others can stay at Grandma Lin's house and go home tomorrow.
