Tian Tian felt relieved when she saw Gu Zhao's confident look. I am a smart person. Since he said that, it means that his classmate is really trustworthy.
"Thank you then!" Tian Tian said. The book was one thing, and the other was Gu Zhao's thoughtfulness.
Gu Zhao must have put a lot of thought into this set of seventeen books.
"You're welcome! I'm glad that you learned something. If you get good grades in the future, I, as your teacher, will be proud to tell others about it." Gu Zhao said with a smile.
"I have some chestnuts and hazelnuts at home. I'll bring some to you!" Tian Tian said.
This set of books must be worth a lot of money, and she felt embarrassed to take it for free. Although the hazelnuts and chestnuts were not worth much, they were also a token of her love.
"Okay!" Gu Zhao did not refuse and agreed with a smile.
Tian Tian hurried home with the book, then filled a clay basket with chestnuts and hazelnuts and rushed to give it to Gu Zhao.
The ones I picked were chestnuts without thorns and peeled hazelnuts.
After Tian Tian carried her things out of the house, Old Lady Tian came out and looked at the direction Tian Tian had gone, puzzled, "Where has this child been? Why did she go out again right after coming back?"
Tian Tian hurried and finally delivered the things to Gu Zhao before he left.
After watching Gu Zhao put the things in the house, Tian Tian went to the field to get the bowls and chopsticks that Tian Lisong and the others would use for eating.
It's not even daybreak yet, and they have to work in the fields until daybreak before they can go home.
By the time they took the dishes home, it would be too dark and they would have no time to wash them.
So Tian Tian usually helps them take the dishes back home after dinner.
After returning home in the evening, Tian Tian eagerly read the contents of the textbook. No wonder everyone was scrambling to get this book before the college entrance examination. It was indeed very useful. The knowledge points in it were detailed and comprehensive. Tian Tian was able to solve all the questions she tried.
If she studied late at night, she would also get up late the next day. Tian Tian would always wait until Old Lady Tian prepared the meal before getting up the next morning.
Feeling embarrassed, Tian Tian packed all the food and prepared to send it to the field. After coming back to help Old Lady Tian finish her work, she began to pack her luggage as she had to go to school in the afternoon.
With this pile of books added to her already small luggage, Tian Tian found it a bit too heavy to carry everything. She finally decided to put the books in the shells and wait until she could put book covers on her schoolbag so that she could secretly take them out to study.
This will prevent other people from seeing this book and causing any trouble.
Tian Tian packed all her luggage at noon and went to the field to deliver the last meal.
When Lin Meiyu saw Tian Tian, she suddenly remembered something and said, "Tian Tian! Ask your dad to take you to school this afternoon! It's a good opportunity for your dad to help you carry your things!"
"No need!" Tian Tian refused. "The work in the fields is so busy, I can go by myself, and most of my things are at school, so I don't need to bring too much this time, I can carry it by myself."
Her father is also a strong laborer. He can earn a full wage working in the fields all day. Add to that his salary and work points as an accountant, and he can earn a lot of money. If he takes a leave this afternoon, not only will he earn less, but he will also delay the harvest of grain.
After wasting a day and a half, her father and uncle became anxious again.
"That's not the point. Your dad made a straw mat for you some time ago so you can use it as a cushion when it's cold. You can't carry the mat, so ask your dad to send it to your school. That way you can light the mat earlier," said Lin Meiyu.
"No need, Mom. The weather is still quite warm now and I don't need a mat. You wait for a while, won't my dad have to go to the county town to deliver food? You can just ask him to deliver the mat to me on the way, so he doesn't have to make a special trip." Tian Tian said.
Lin Meiyu thought about it and it was true. It really wouldn't matter if she waited a day or two. "That's fine. Let your dad take you there. We won't take you there. Then you can go to school by yourself this afternoon?"
"Sister Yunyun and I will go there together. Don't worry. I have walked that road many times. There are people in the fields on both sides. Nothing will happen." Tian Tian said.
"Then you go back! I won't see you off." Lin Meiyu said.
"Yes," Tian Tian agreed.
After Lin Meiyu finished her meal, Tian Tian collected everyone's bowls and chopsticks, then went to get the earthen basket that she had given to Gu Zhao last night, and carried the two earthen baskets back home.
"I'm back!" Old Mrs. Tian said, wiping her hands with her apron. "Put the dishes here, I'll wash them later. Go wash your face and change your clothes."
"It's okay! Let me wash it! My hands were stained with a lot of oil when I was serving the dishes just now, and there were not many bowls, so I washed them easily." Tian Tian said.
Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo came back to eat at mealtime, and there were only four of them, Tian Lisong, Tian Lilin and his wife.
Nowadays, each person uses one bowl when eating, so there are four bowls in total, plus two earthenware jars, which can be washed quickly.
While talking, Tian Tian had already started washing the dishes.
Old Mrs. Tian looked at it and said nothing.
After Tian Tian finished washing the dishes, Old Mrs. Tian took out two cans filled with pickles.
"Take these two cans of pickles to eat at school. We don't have much at home, so I boiled five eggs for you in the pot. Don't forget to take them with you when you leave and eat them when you get to school. Studying strains your brain, so eat more eggs to nourish your brain." said Old Mrs. Tian.
At that time, there was nothing good at home, and it was difficult for the family to eat. There were no vegetables to eat, so they could only give pickles to Tian Tian.
But five eggs is also a big deal.
"Okay!" Tian Tian did not refuse. These pickles were pickled by Old Lady Tian with the last batch of vegetables. Old Lady Tian was a good cook. These pickles could be eaten plain and were not salty at all. They were very delicious after being pickled. Tian Tian could eat two big pancakes with the pickles.
After hearing this, Old Mrs. Tian went to pack two bottles of pickles and five eggs for Tian Tian.
Tian Tian washed her face and changed into clean clothes. She had worn these clothes to work, and they smelled of sweat and were covered in dust.
After taking off the clothes, throw them directly into the big basin at home. You can only trouble Grandma Tian or Lin Meiyu to help wash the clothes.
After changing her clothes, Tian Tian packed her luggage, said hello to Old Mrs. Tian, and went out to find Tian Yun.
Tian Yun had packed everything at home and was waiting for Tian Tian to come.
The two of them carried their luggage and went to the county town to go to school together.
When they reached the grove at the entrance of the team, which was the only way out of the team, they happened to run into Shen Lingling running out of the grove.
