There were indeed quite a few notebooks in their house, all of which were brought back by Tian Tian before. Although there were quite a few notebooks, there were not many pencils.
Tian Zhuo is now very careful when using pencils, for fear that they will run out and have to buy new ones.
"Brother! You finally come back, can't you bring us some food and toys?" Tian Baobao said unhappily.
"You are all in school now, so you will need these things sooner or later." Tian Yuan stroked Tian Baobao's hair.
"Brother! I like pencils!" Tian Zhuo said while holding a pencil.
"Then I'll give you all these pencils and notebooks!" It just so happened that Tian Baobao didn't like these, so he let Tian Zhuo take them all away.
Tian Yuan shook his head helplessly when he saw Tian Baobao like this. "Studying is so good, but you just don't know how to appreciate your blessings! These two little things are for you."
After Tian Yuan finished speaking, he threw two small things to Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo. They hurriedly caught the things and took them out, only to find that they were two small five-pointed star medals.
"Five-pointed star!" This time it was Tian Baobao's turn to scream excitedly.
Now it is the dream of every boy to have a small five-pointed star badge in their hands.
Before, Tian Baobao wanted his mother to sew one on his schoolbag, but Chen Guihua was too lazy. She thought that a schoolbag was just useful and there was no need to make it fancy. So she explicitly rejected Tian Baobao's request, which made Tian Baobao disappointed for a long time.
Tian Zhuo was also very excited. Even though he was mature, he was just a child and still liked these things.
"This five-pointed star is very important. You two are not allowed to play with it or draw on it. Otherwise, I will ask grandma to take the five-pointed stars back from you two and not give them to you anymore." Tian Yuan warned.
At this time, the representativeness of the five-pointed star is still relatively strong. If it gets dirty or scratched, others may see it and accuse you of any crime, and it will be difficult to explain.
"Don't worry, brother! I will definitely take good care of this five-pointed star!" Tian Baobao couldn't wait to pin the five-pointed star on his body, and then he wanted to pull Tian Zhuo into the field to show off to his friends.
As soon as I left the house, I was stopped by Old Lady Tian who had just put away her scarf. "Baby Tian! You two don't have to go to the fields to pick up wheat grains this afternoon. Go to the river and catch some cicadas. Grandma will make you cicada tofu tonight."
These crickets can be caught from the time they thaw in spring until they freeze in the river in winter, but before now Old Mrs. Tian didn't have much time to cook for everyone. Today, Tian Yuan finally came back, and Old Mrs. Tian insisted on preparing a sumptuous meal.
"Really, grandma?" When Tian Baobao heard about eating cicada tofu, he became excited. He had gone to the river to pick up crickets many times before, but when he brought them back, Grandma Tian always had no time to cook them for him, so he stopped picking them for a long time.
"Really! Go quickly! Finish catching them early and come back early so that grandma can make delicious food for you!" Old Mrs. Tian promised.
After hearing this, Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo picked up the basin and ran excitedly to Hetao to catch their husbands.
All the gifts had been distributed to everyone at home, and those who had not received any were not at home, so Tian Yuan put his bag away and came out to ask Old Mrs. Tian if there was any work she needed his help with.
Although Old Mrs. Tian had never taken a train, she had taken a ox cart and knew that riding a ox cart from their brigade to the county town and back was extremely tiring. People just wanted to lie on the kang and didn't want to do any work. She knew that taking a train would be even more tiring given the long journey.
Hearing what Tian Yuan said, the old lady pushed Tian Yuan into the house and let him take a nap. She could do any work tomorrow.
Tian Yuan said that he was not tired, but once he lay down on the kang, his body was very honest and he fell asleep instantly, even snoring.
Old Mrs. Tian felt very distressed to see Tian Yuan so tired. She picked up the small quilt beside her to cover Tian Yuan's belly, and went out to think about what to eat in the evening.
My eldest grandson has finally come back, and he has lost so much weight. I must make some delicious food to nourish him.
"Tian Tian! Go pick up a handful of mushrooms this afternoon and soak them. We'll kill a chicken and stew the mushrooms tonight."
Tian Tian was about to turn around and go downstairs when she asked, "Kill a chicken tonight?!"
This is such a pleasant surprise. She thought she would have to wait until the Chinese New Year to eat meat.
