San Tiao pursed his lips. He'd actually pushed him before. Then, seeing there was no other way, he started pushing him in a roundabout way. His method was to watch Liu Tiao as he did his homework. He was certain that under his supervision, Liu Tiao would somehow get all the answers right.
But what he didn't expect was that his younger brother, Rokujo, kept changing his answers. If he said something was wrong, Rokujo would insist that what his older brother taught him must be right. Even when his older brother, Ichijo, wasn't sure if it was right, Rokujo would still stand with his hands on his hips and tell him that Ichijo must be right...
"Then why don't you study rule three and get all the correct answers in your homework every time?" Rule two glanced at rule six and said lightly.
"There's a chance, there's a chance~" Rokujo looked at his second brother's clenched fists, afraid of being beaten, so he didn't dare to express even the slightest opinion, and his tone became weaker...
Cheng Zhenzhu shook her head and smiled, ignoring the little chatter, and got up to cook. Tonight, she'd make some stir-fried pork belly with green peppers, and some scallops. She'd also use some lard to make some lettuce, and some dried mushroom soup...
The three dishes and a soup were served, and the seven Tiao were drooling. Cheng Zhenzhu scooped a spoonful of hot soup and began to eat. As for the Tiao's meals, she didn't have to worry about them. At most, she would give a couple of leaves of lettuce to Jiu Tiao, who was picky about eating leaves...
"Mom, are we having braised pork for New Year's Day this year?" After finishing a meal of stir-fried pork with green peppers, Liu Tiao counted his fingers and began to think about the next meal. Mom would make braised pork for them almost every New Year's Day. I wonder if she would make it this year?
"We'll see when the time comes. A small hot pot would be fine." Cheng Zhenzhu thought about it.
"Little hot pot, little hot pot!" Er Tiao was delighted when he heard it and raised the hot pot banner high.
"Hot pot, hehe~" Bajo loves hot pot.
Liu Tiao hesitated when he heard about hotpot. What should he do? What should he do? He loves both of them!
Liu Tiao didn't hesitate for long. Soon, the brothers at the table voted to have hot pot for New Year's Day. Liu Tiao was the last to vote. Seeing that everyone in the group voted for hot pot, he voted for braised pork without hesitation.
All his brothers voted for hot pot, so hot pot was definitely the way to go. So he voted for the delicious braised pork! What if his kindhearted mother heard that both of them wanted to eat it? Hehe~
......
"Brother, brother, it's time to soak your feet~" After dinner, Jiu Tiao stayed on the sofa for a while. Seeing his brothers coming back from washing the dishes and lying down again, he reached out and pushed them, urging them a few times.
The weather was getting colder, and now everyone in the house stopped showering every day and would soak their feet before going to bed. Although Jiu Tiao didn't like taking baths, after soaking his feet once, he loved the feeling of soaking his feet and often occupied a footbath all by himself.
Because the little one felt that his brothers' feet were too big to fit in the small foot basin...
So Cheng Zhenzhu asked Uncle Dezi to make seven footbaths, and to distinguish them, she even had Uncle Dezi carve numbers on them.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, the water's still boiling!" Six patted Nine. They had just started the fire. Otherwise, Nine wondered what all the people had done there before? Those who washed dishes washed dishes, those who fetched water fetched water, and those who lit the fire lit the fire. They all had their own division of labor.
Try not to make Mom too busy...
"Oh~" Jiu Tiao nodded his little head, lifted his little feet, and began to wait.
As soon as his older brother said it was okay, the little guy immediately went to find his little basin.
Although his brothers said that all foot basins look the same, he thinks it is different. His small basin is the most beautiful and the cutest!
"Jiu Tiao, your basin is here. Don't take the wrong one." Qi Tiao looked around but couldn't find his foot basin. He saw a basin with the number "9" engraved on it in the corner. He looked again and saw Jiu Tiao, who was dragging a basin and panting to the door, and called out to him.
"This one is mine!" Jiu Tiao pointed at the foot basin at his feet and said confidently.
"Jiu Tiao, why don't you take another look?" Yi Tiao saw the "7" engraved on the basin at Jiu Tiao's feet.
Jiu Tiao, who didn't even have a kindergarten diploma, took a closer look in the dim light and became more confident.
"Forty-nine makes thirty-six, hahahahaha..." Nijo laughed.
"Oh?" Jiujo opened his confused eyes, not quite understanding what his second brother was talking about.
"Jiu Tiao, look at the number engraved on it?" San Tiao pointed to the number and told Jiu Tiao, "The number on the one that looks like a hoe is seven, so this basin is for seven..."
"Here, Jiu Tiao, yours is here." Nana Tiao picked up the basin on the ground and exchanged it with Jiu Tiao.
"Mine?" Jiu Tiao tilted his head, staring at the basin in his brother Qi Tiao's hand, which seemed to be a larger one. He touched the small bunch of flowers tied with a loop on it, "This Jiu?"
"Well, this is 9. It looks like a tadpole. It's the same tadpole as the one in the movie 'The Little Tadpole Looking for His Mother' that we watched when we went to grandma's house this summer vacation..." San Tiao patiently helped his younger brother recognize it.
"Drinking mom~" When he said this, Jiu Tiao had an impression. The one who drank had a mom, and he had a mother!
The other few also remembered the animation of "The Tadpole Looking for Mom", turned around and looked at their mothers, their eyes immediately filled with admiration. They have the best mothers in the world!
As they were thinking about it, the brothers all rushed to fetch water for their mother to wash her face and feet. Jiu Tiao didn't even bother to drag his small basin, and dragged his short legs to get a handkerchief for his mother.
Unfortunately, her legs were too short to reach the handkerchief, and just when she was about to reach it, the handkerchief suddenly disappeared...
"My Queen, I've found a handkerchief for you!" Liu Tiao tore off the handkerchief and ran away very quickly.
Thirty minutes later, after resting and eating, Cheng Zhenzhu was helped by several little kids and went to bed comfortably.
Jiu Tiao, who had been busy following his brothers in the living room for a while, was still trying to soak his feet. After he finished, he found that his mother was not there to carry him to bed!
"Brother, brother~" Jiu Tiao took a foot cloth and wiped every toe and the spaces between his toes dry. Seeing that no brother came to hug him, he grabbed his little hands and arched towards the brothers in all directions.
"Jiu Tiao, wait for me for two minutes." San Tiao is now the one who pays more attention to health preservation. He just counted the time and went into the water to soak his feet. If he said soak for 15 minutes, then it would be 15 minutes. Soaking for too long or too short will not work.
How many minutes are in two? Jiu Tiao stared blankly at the clock. He only knew "squares" and not minutes. Because his brothers Qi Tiao and Ba Tiao often counted squares at home...
