Then he washed his hands and started helping Mrs. Tian.
It was not until it got dark that Tian Lisong and his friends returned home, exhausted from the day.
Even the energetic Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo looked a little wilted.
Tian Tian and Old Lady Tian had already prepared the meal, and everyone came back and consciously fetched water, washed their hands, and ate.
After washing his hands, Tian Mu helped Old Lady Tian serve the dishes. He saw a basin on the ground and curiously opened it to take a look. "What is this?"
"Ah!" Tian Mu exclaimed in surprise when he saw the crickets still crawling inside, "Are we going to cook crickets tomorrow?"
Tian Tian turned her head and took a look. "We don't have enough time tonight. I'll make it for you guys tomorrow at noon."
Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo immediately became alert, humming little tunes as they helped serve food to everyone.
The next morning, after Tian Tian delivered the meal to the field, she passed by Gu Zhao's house on her way home and took away the notebook that Gu Zhao had placed on the wall.
When I got home, no one was at home. Old Mrs. Tian had gone to Tian Lili's house to take care of her during her confinement.
There are few people in Tian Lili's family, only her father, her mother and her younger brother. Now it is the autumn harvest, and although everyone is worried about her, no one can say that they will give up their work in the fields and stay at home to take care of her.
They could only ask Tian Shengshu to help Tian Lili heat up meals, get diapers and so on, but Tian Shengshu was still a child after all and didn't know how to take care of a baby during confinement.
Not to mention how to take care of the child. Old Mrs. Tian said that when she had nothing to do at home, she would go to Tian Lili's house to take a look. Not to mention helping with other chores, at least she would help Tian Lili look after the child and change diapers, and also allow Tian Lili to close her eyes and take a nap without having to be tense all the time.
When talking about Tian Lili and Tian Lili's son, we have to talk about Tian Lili's old mother-in-law.
Although no one sent a message to the Li family that night when Tian Lili launched the attack, someone did send a message to the Li family the next morning.
But the child has been born for two or three days, and the Li family has never said anything about coming to take a look.
Even if you don't come to see your daughter-in-law, there is no news from the Li family about your newly born grandson.
Although Second Aunt didn't say anything, she was very angry in her heart.
The person who went to deliver the letter to the Li family came back and said that he told the Li family about Tian Lili's hospitalization, but there was still no movement from the Li family.
Her daughter Tian Lili suffered so much just to give birth to a child for the Li family, but the other side was so quiet. If you didn't send something over, they wouldn't even say a word.
However, this is not the time for Second Aunt to settle accounts with the Li family. Whether it is the autumn harvest or Tian Lili's confinement, both are more important than the Li family. Now that they know that Li Jia is such a person, they just need to be more careful in the future.
However, Tian Tian didn't know about these things. After returning home, she put the cicadas she picked up yesterday under the well in the yard. She was originally worried that these cicadas would die if they were out of the river water, but now seeing that these cicadas are still alive and kicking, she is no longer worried about getting an upset stomach.
Tian Tian used a small brush to brush all the cicadas clean, then she took out the stone mortar that had never been used in the house and brushed it clean, then crushed all the cicadas in the mortar.
This was a strenuous job, and it was already noon when everything was mashed. Fortunately, the rest was easy. Tian Tian quickly made a pot of cicada and tofu soup and rolled a few bean flour cakes.
She caught too few cicadas yesterday and there were too many people at home, so if she wanted everyone to have some, she could only make cicada tofu soup.
After the meal was done, she ate a couple of bites herself, then put the soup and pancakes into two large earthenware jars, put bowls on top, picked up chopsticks and went to serve them the meal.
Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo were very happy to see that they actually had cicada tofu for lunch today, and they ate it with relish.
Not to mention the two children, even the adults ate a lot at noon today.
"After working for a whole morning, it feels so good to drink a bowl of hot soup!" said Chen Guihua after drinking the soup in the bowl.
"Tiantian is really capable. She doesn't mind the trouble of making cricket tofu. We are not like those who just eat a few bites every day." The aunt next to her swallowed her saliva as she smelled the delicious smell in the air.
Not every family has one person dedicated to cooking. Many families have the whole family working in the fields. They either cook a big pot of rice in the morning and eat it three times a day, or one person goes home to cook a meal at lunchtime. Either way, it means they are destined to not eat well.
Everyone just wants to be full, so no one cares whether the food tastes good or not. They just want to try something different.
There are very few people in the brigade who are like Tiantian and Old Lady Tian, who specifically plan what delicious food to cook at home and try to cook it in different ways for each meal.
After everyone finished their meal, Tian Tian took the bowls they had used home and prepared to wash them. When she got home, she saw Old Lady Tian pressing water to wash the bowls she had used.
When Mrs. Tian saw Tian Tian coming back from delivering the meal, she stretched out her hand and called Tian Tian, "Give me the bowl to wash. You must be exhausted this morning. Go back to your room and have a nap. You will be more energetic in the afternoon."
"No need for milk! Just a few bowls, and I didn't do anything this morning. I just made some crayfish tofu, it's not tiring! You've been taking care of the kids all morning, you should go back and take a rest."
Although Tian Tian had never seen a child, she knew that looking after a child must be very tiring. You really can't miss a single glance, and you have to feed the baby every two hours. That's with milk powder. I feed the baby with rice oil like Tian Lili at home, so he gets hungry faster. I also have to change diapers, although I don't need Grandma Tian to help wash the diaper, but it's not easy either.
Tian Tian was only a little tired when she was crushing the crickets in the morning, but that only tired her hands, not her brain. Tian Tian was even in a daze when she was pounding the mortar in the morning, and washing dishes is not tiring.
Old Mrs. Tian is so old, so her energy is definitely not as good as Tian Tian's.
Old Mrs. Tian's back and waist were indeed sore from taking care of the children this morning, even though she didn't have to do any work. When the children were hungry, she just fed them some rice oil; when the diapers were wet, she just changed them; when the children cried, she just comforted them. She didn't even have to wash the diapers or serve the rice oil.
But after all, Old Mrs. Tian is old and can’t bear it any longer.
Seeing that Tian Tian had already started washing the dishes, Old Mrs. Tian went back to the house to sleep.
After taking a short nap, Old Mrs. Tian went to Tian Lili's house to help look after the child for a while.
