Tian Tian took advantage of this time to go to the garden and pick a handful of green onions, and sat on a small bench at the door to pick them.
She was pulling onions with her head down when she heard some noise at the door. She looked up and saw Old Mrs. Tian carrying a large bundle of firewood on her back and holding a basket in her hand, and she was leaning sideways to prepare to enter the door.
"Grandma!" Tian Tian dropped the shallot in her hand and went to help Old Lady Tian unload the firewood from her shoulders. "Why are you carrying so much firewood? It's so heavy!"
The nearest mountain was quite far from their home, not to mention that Old Mrs. Tian had to carry the firewood down.
"There is a lot of dry firewood on the mountain now. I picked up so much without paying attention. I couldn't bear to throw it on the mountain, so I just carried it all back.
Old Mrs. Tian was really tired after carrying the firewood back, and she sat on the bundle of firewood, panting.
"Why didn't you call me? I should at least go out to greet you!" Tian Tian complained, "Don't just sit here. I'll help you in."
Tian Tian helped Old Lady Tian sit on a small stool, then went into the house and poured her a bowl of water.
"Have you finished cooking?" Old Mrs. Tian took the bowl and took a sip of water and asked.
"It's in the pot. We'll be able to eat it when my dad and others come back. I was thinking of picking some green onions and dipping them in soybean paste." Tian Tian went to the gate of the yard, dragged the firewood in, put it in the yard, waited for her dad to come back and put the firewood on the firewood pile, then sat down next to Old Mrs. Tian and bent down to pick green onions.
"Go to the cucumber rack later and pick two tender ones, wash them and eat them with the sauce."
"Okay, I'll go wash it in a minute." Tian Tian said without raising her head.
Old Mrs. Tian rested for a while, recovered her strength, stood up and took the earth basket she had brought back.
"I saw that the chestnuts on the mountain are growing quite thick this year, so I picked some for you. You can bury them in the stove pit and roast them to eat."
Tian Tian then noticed that there was a small basket of chestnuts in the earthen basket that Old Lady Tian brought back. She was so moved that she couldn't speak for a moment. She looked at Old Lady Tian with tears in her eyes and threw herself into her arms, "Grandma~"
Old Mrs. Tian was so old, and not only did she carry such a heavy load of firewood down the mountain, she also remembered to bring down a small half basket of chestnuts for her. Tian Tian was both touched and guilty.
She was moved by Mrs. Tian's love for her, but felt guilty that she was not Mrs. Tian's real granddaughter. Mrs. Tian's granddaughter had died long ago. She was just an outsider ghost who occupied Mrs. Tian's granddaughter's body and enjoyed their love.
"Why are you crying? They're just some chestnuts. There are plenty of them on the mountain." Old Mrs. Tian felt a little corny when she saw that her granddaughter was so easily moved, but she couldn't help but become alert.
Just a few chestnuts, but she was so moved that she cried. The man who was going to give the gift to Tian Tian was a man, so she wouldn't run away with him, right?
It seems that I have to be nicer to Tian Tian in the future, thought Old Mrs. Tian, touching Tian Tian's back.
"Grandma, you are the best to me!" Tian Tian was still acting coquettishly in Grandma Tian's arms.
Although she felt a little sorry for the original owner, Tian Tian was very glad that she could possess the original owner. She really liked the current world and the original owner's family.
Tian Tian has never felt the love from her family and she has no memory of anything before her transformation.
After she transformed, she looked like a baby and was found by a kind-hearted person and sent to an orphanage.
As a healthy child, I didn't get much love in an orphanage, especially in an orphanage for disabled children.
As a snail spirit, Tian Tian has been very mature since childhood and will not compete for the little love she has with those already pitiful children.
Her grades were very good and she learned very quickly. After completing nine years of compulsory education, she was admitted to high school with the first place and her tuition was free. As for her daily living expenses, the money from the poverty subsidy was enough for her.
Later, she went to a 211 university, applied for a student loan, and earned her daily living expenses by working part-time.
In college, she was lucky to make three good friends. Not long after she received the love among their friends, the world changed, and then she came here.
Sometimes she felt quite aggrieved, like other monsters in novels, who could call the wind and rain, had no shortage of gold, silver and treasures, and had a group of younger brothers under them.
But what about her? As the only snail spirit after the founding of the People's Republic of China, she is so poor that she lives on poverty subsidies. She can't do anything in this world without spiritual energy. Except for having a snail shell that can hold things and live in (since she has no money, it can only be used as a living space) and being able to throw garbage from a distance, she is no different from ordinary people. She is born, grows old, gets sick and dies in the same way, and has to fight for life in the same way. She has no parents or best friends, and her only three good friends died in the end of the world.
She felt that being able to travel through time and space to this world after death and having a family that loved her was the luckiest thing in her life, and she would treat them well in the future.
Tian Tian made up her mind secretly in Old Lady Tian's arms.
"Okay, okay, stop crying. You're going to get married in a few years, and you're still acting like a spoiled child in front of me, making your brother laugh at you." Old Mrs. Tian felt that she had had enough, so she patted Tian Tian on the back and urged her to get up quickly.
Tian Tian felt something was wrong. She turned around and saw Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo leaning against the gate. They stretched their necks to look over here. When Tian Tian looked over, Tian Baobao scratched his face with his index finger twice, "Sister, you are crying, shame on me!"
Tian Tian was originally a little embarrassed that the two kids saw her crying, but now seeing Tian Baobao like this, she became angry and humiliated.
"Okay!" Tian Tian stood up and rolled up her sleeves. "How dare you two laugh at me! Look at my Foshan Shadowless Claw!"
After Tian Tian finished speaking, she ran towards the two of them with her arms and legs bared.
Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo screamed, turned around and ran away.
Tian Tian originally just wanted to scare them, so she chased them out the door, but when she saw that the two of them had disappeared, she went back to Old Lady Tian to pick some green onions.
Old Mrs. Tian was a person who could not rest. After she recovered, she stood up and started to work in the front and back yards. She first went to pull out the weeds in the vegetable garden and picked a few cucumbers. She then tried to put firewood on the firewood pile. Tian Tian was so scared that she stopped her quickly.
Old Mrs. Tian looked at the bundle of firewood in the yard with some regret. Seeing Tian Tian staring at her vigilantly, she had no choice but to go into the kitchen to wash cucumbers and watch the fire at the same time.
The first thing she did when she entered the living room was to look at the lard in the lard jar which was already empty.
Only a little bit of the lard was used, and she nodded with satisfaction.
It’s not that she is stingy, it’s just that oil is hard to get nowadays.
