Chapter 27 Bao, will you offend the immortals by taking so many things?
"Hey! I'm calling you! Come over here and move the firewood!" The woman stood with her hands on her hips, facing the Su family, and held her breath. "...I don't want money! I'm not giving it away for free! I'll give it to you on credit first. Later, when you have good things like medicinal herbs and food, bring them to me one by one to pay off the debt!"
The Su family members who were about to go up the mountain stared blankly, "..."
"Do you want it? Forget it!"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
The man leaned against the door frame, looking at the evil woman with her hands on her hips in front of him, and after a moment he chuckled.
The woman turned around and gave him a sidelong look.
The Su family didn't expect that things would take such a turn for the better. The woman was suddenly willing to give them firewood for free.
As for buying on credit, it can be almost ignored.
The Su family would never think of refusing to pay, but they can distinguish between sincerity and insincerity. The woman probably felt embarrassed because her words contradicted her twice, so she said the word "credit".
But if they have good things in the future, they will definitely return them to the woman and her family.
When you are away from home, you should be grateful for the help you receive.
The Su family was happily moving firewood, but Tianbao was a little depressed and pouted.
She had just chopped down several very large trees in the space. It took her quite a bit of effort to chop them up, but it was all in vain.
Old Lady Su was in a good mood at the moment. She looked down and saw her beloved granddaughter pouting. She smiled and tapped her little mouth with her finger, "Why aren't you happy? We've got help this time. We can finally build a house and have a place to live. Bao'er, don't pout. A favor will be remembered for a thousand years."
Old Man Su also came over and said cheerfully, "Your grandma is right. Remembering kindness and repaying favors is a sign of virtue. Although what that aunt said earlier was not very pleasant, it actually gave us a warning and was kind. Our sweet baby needs to learn about the ways of the world as he grows up."
Tianbao tilted his little head, and there was a hint of confusion in his big black eyes.
Seeing this, Mrs. Su and the old couple smiled and said, "Tianbao is still young, it's normal that you don't understand. Grandpa and grandma will teach you in the future."
Knowing that their granddaughter was different from ordinary people, the old couple did not treat her as an ordinary baby. Especially when the child threw pears everywhere, they could see the "roughness" in her character. Therefore, the old couple would teach her some human principles whenever they had the chance.
Tianbao really doesn't understand these things.
But if her grandparents were happy teaching her, she would listen patiently.
As long as grandpa and grandma always treat her so well.
Then she is willing to be a good child.
Everyone in the Su family is a good worker. With enough materials, building a thatched house is not difficult at all.
Su Da and Su Er were young and strong, and they quickly erected the framework of the house. They placed the curtains they had woven with dead vines and thorn strips that morning on all four sides of the framework, fixed them in place, covered the top with a thatched roof, and then put a layer of bark given by the new neighbor on top to protect them from rain and snow.
Finish.
Although it is not as good as their previous home in Dahuai Village, the family finally has a place to stay here.
While Su Da and Su Er were busy, the others were not idle either.
The three young women continued to collect soft dry grass, took it home to dry, and then spread a layer of it on the floor of each room. They would cover it with old clothes and people could sleep on it. When conditions allowed in the future, they would find a way to get a few wooden beds.
Old Man Su and Old Woman Su marked out a small area around the house and lined the edges with thorns, so that they had a yard.
While the adults were busy, the three little ones gathered around the wooden cart, taking good care of their sister.
Now they have a home and a place to live, the kids smile and when the adults aren't paying attention, they reach out their hands to pinch and knead their sister's soft face.
The little face was pouting because of the black claws, and then it was pulled to the sides. The sparse hair on the head was pulled up from time to time. Tianbao had a blank expression on his face.
She wanted to beat them up.
but.
"Sister, sweet baby! Sister is so cute!"
"Not only is she cute, she's also very pretty! None of the little kids in the village before were as pretty as Tianbao!"
"Such a pretty sweet girl is my sister, hahaha!"
"It's my sister!"
"My sister! She was born to my mother!"
"My parents said that Tianbao is our biological sister! Really! Humph! Tianbao, I'm your second brother. When you grow up a little bit, I'll give you anything delicious!"
"I'm the Third Brother! Sweetie, next time you have pears to eat, I'll give you the sweetest one!"
"Childish! Tianbao, you haven't even grown any teeth yet, how can you eat a pear? Tianbao, when you grow up, big brother will let you eat fish!"
Tianbao's little fists were clenched tightly, then slowly loosened, and he let out a breath from his little mouth.
never mind.
They said she was pretty.
In addition to building a thatched hut to live in, the Su family also used the remaining materials to build a simple kitchen. It was a bit leaky, but at the expense of being hidden from view, they no longer had to act like thieves when cooking.
The next evening, when it was time to eat, the empty bag that had been placed in the corner of the kitchen quietly swelled up again.
"Brother! Bag, bag! Tianbao brought us food again!" Su Er's eyes were fixed on the bag early in the morning. He noticed it the first time and grinned, "How about fried fish tonight? Clean!"
Grilled fish is of course delicious, but the skin always gets burnt black. Sometimes you accidentally overcook it and it becomes burnt, making it inedible and a waste.
Su Da went over to pick up the bag and spit at him, "You're still picking it up, what a jerk."
After opening the bag, Su Da reached out to take out the frozen fish, but was stunned when he saw what was inside.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
"We don't have fried fish. How about rabbit or chicken?"
Su Er had just taken a step to light the stove when he staggered when he heard the words. After he stood firm, he immediately rushed to Su Da's side and stretched his neck to look into the bag.
"Two fat rabbits?! Three pheasants?!" He roared excitedly, "Oh my god! How many good things does our sweet baby have? These are fairy chickens and rabbits, right? Wouldn't it be a sin to stew them in one pot?"
“Simmer or not?”
"stew!"
Su Er burst out of the kitchen with a big laugh, picked up the little sweet baby who was still lying on the wooden cart, and kissed him fiercely, "Hey, baby! Uncle Er really loves you so much!"
After laughing and kissing, he lowered his voice and whispered in the baby's ear, "Baby, uncle knows you have magical powers. Will you offend other immortals by taking so many things? If the immortals ask for punishment, you can put the blame on uncle, and uncle will bear it for you!"
Sweetie blinked.
Stupid uncle.
She raised her little hand and gently scratched her idiot uncle's chin, trying to open her little mouth into a small arc.
"Ouch! Ouch! Daddy, Mommy! Tianbao is smiling!"
Old Lady Su hadn't finished tying the last bunch of thorns in her hand yet. Upon hearing this, she tiptoed over quickly and snatched Tianbao away. She smiled at her granddaughter's sweet smile for a moment, then raised her hand and slapped the second child. "Why are you teasing Tianbao here when you're not going to cook? Your sister-in-law and Daxiang have been exhausted all day, and Xiu'er is so tired that she can't even straighten her back. If I don't cook, you won't eat tonight!"
"No, I have to eat this dinner tonight!" Su Er was still smiling even after being beaten. He pretended to dodge and whispered, "Mom, we're having rabbit and pheasant tonight! Tianbao brought them out!"
Old lady Su misjudged her hand and hit nothing.
“…”
Oh my sweetie, this is like falling into a bottomless pit!
