Cheng Zhenzhu looked at Seven and Eight, whose long legs were stretched out on the left and right like a neat couplet, then looked at Six, who was looking at her expectantly, and Nine, who was tilting his head in her arms with his eyes blinking, and fell silent.
"I told mom I was going to make something delicious!" Liu Tiao fooled his younger brothers.
If I only take him, my mother might consider it, but if all my brothers want to go, I don't know if it will work. This way, he can go first and give his brothers some experience...
"Delicious, what's delicious?" Eight ears moved and smiled. Usually, what Six Brother said was delicious must be even more delicious!
"What, what?" Jiujo happily hugged his mother's arm.
"Let's eat duck. Kill two ducks in the evening. Simmer the duck wings, duck feet, and duck necks in the stove, and stir-fry the duck meat." Cheng Zhenzhu pointed to the ducks in the woodshed that his father and Old Man Wang had bought early in the morning.
"Duck, Jiu Tiao likes it! It smells so good after simmering it!" Jiu Tiao said with great experience.
Seeing that his mother was covering up for him and his younger brothers were also fooled by him, Liu Tiao felt that there was room for negotiation regarding the matter of going to see his big brother, and his eyes lit up like lights.
Cheng Zhenzhu retracted her finger from the duck, glanced at Liu Tiao, and continued, "Mom had originally planned to go visit you brothers after National Day. If you want to go..."
"Mom, I want to go!" Qi Tiao spoke immediately, with a hint of joy in his tone.
"I want it too, I want it too!" Jiu Tiao raised both hands, feeling that the duck that was about to reach his mouth was not as delicious as this one!
Cheng Zhenzhu knew that several of them would give this answer. "If you want to go, the National Day holiday will be over, and you will have to take a few days off."
"Then let's go during National Day!" Liu Tiao felt that there was a lot of room for maneuver after hearing what his mother said!
"Well, National Day, let's go!" Bajiao wanted to go out and see the world again.
"But time is tight, so we can only go to one city. City A, where your second brother is, is close to us. If we go there, we can stay for two more days without having to take several days off.
Your eldest brother lives in City B, which is a bit far away. If you go there, you'll have to take a few extra days off. We need to prepare for the lessons a few days in advance. Your third brother's place is the farthest away, so if you go, it's best to bring your books with you." Cheng Zhenzhu had already made this point, and she analyzed the various points carefully.
"Then he must be going to Big Brother's place!" Liu Tiao said without hesitation. He had a reason. "There's a big brother there! Big Brother takes care of our big brother, so we must go and thank him!"
"Go to my third brother." Qi Tiao felt that he and his brother San Tiao were best friends, so he voted for the capital without hesitation.
Jiujo could go anywhere, as long as he followed his mother. Then Hachijo hesitated for a while between his six brothers and his biological brother, and finally chose his two brothers tactfully, not offending anyone.
The eight reasons are also very sufficient. Brother Xiaohu is also in City A. It's worth it to be able to see two brothers at once...
"Anyway, you brothers, just discuss it first. Tell me when you've made up your mind so I can buy the tickets earlier." Cheng Zhenzhu threw the multiple-choice question to her brothers and joined the senior card game with her parents.
In the end, I don't know what the brothers discussed, but they all agreed to go see their eldest brother first, and then go see the other brothers next time they had the chance...
Cheng Zhenzhu was curious about how Liu Tiao had managed to convince Qi Tiao, Ba Tiao, and Jiu Tiao, but it wasn't until she saw Liu Tiao setting up a barbecue stall for his brothers for the next two weekends that she understood the price Liu Tiao had paid.
You can't really say it's a price, anyway, Liu Tiao is pretty happy holding the skewers...
"Zhenzhu, are you all going this time?" Before leaving, Zhao Fangrui looked at her grandchildren happily packing their bags, feeling very reluctant to let them go. In previous years, her second daughter would go alone, but now that they were all gone, it would be so awkward for the old couple left alone.
"Well, it'll only be a few days. We'll go to City B first and come back. Then I'll go see Er Tiao, San Tiao and the others." Cheng Zhenzhu saw her mother's reluctance to leave and said with a smile, "Mom, when I come back, I'll take you to visit the capital of God."
Hmm? Take them with you! Speaking of this, Cheng Fugui really perked up! He's retired and now lives a good life with his grandson Nongyi, but he still has some wishes. He's always wanted to see Tiananmen Square, see the great men, watch the flag-raising ceremony, and see with his own eyes those scenes he'd seen on TV...
Wang Xiongtian couldn't help but feel a little yearning after hearing this, but when Cheng Laoxiong and the others left, he would have to stay behind to look after the children...
Cheng Zhenzhu then looked at Old Man Wang and said, "Uncle Wang, you can come with us. I'll ask Sister Yumei to help look after the children."
Is he going too... "Hey hey!" Wang Xiongtian was stunned for a while, and after being patted twice by his old man, he came to his senses and agreed happily, his eyes unconsciously moist.
In fact, he has been living here and doesn't want to move. In addition to his grandson, he also likes the warmth and liveliness of this place and doesn't want to be alone as an old man. This is his selfish motive.
It was niece Cheng who gave this old man some dignity. It was truly a blessing for their family to have Comrade Cheng...
"Isn't going to the capital a good thing? Why are you crying?" Cheng Fugui looked at his old friend and said.
"I'm just so happy, so happy..." Wang Xiongtian raised his sleeve to wipe it, and said he would go back to his room to pack up his things first.
Cheng Fugui saw this and didn't want to be left behind, so he packed up and went to do the same.
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's still early! Zhenzhu hasn't even left yet. It will take at least a week for her to come back..." Zhao Fangrui saw that she couldn't stop her from shouting, so she thought for a moment and went to pick out some clothes from her closet.
..............
Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the three elderly people and couldn't help but think of a saying: "An old man in the family is like a treasure." Her family now has three treasures.
"Mom, mom, mom, look at this dress of mine, isn't it so handsome?" Jiu Tiao came out of the closet and brought a coat embroidered with pandas.
"Mom, what do you think of me wearing this outfit?" Liu Tiao also came to ask for her opinion.
The two brothers, Qi Tiao and Ba Tiao, were trying on each other's clothes to see if they looked good on each other. If they looked good, then they would look similar to this on themselves...
Wow! So many treasures! Old treasures, little treasures, and so many treasures. Cheng Zhenzhu gave Tiao Tiao a "so handsome" look, then went back to her room and randomly picked out a few clothes. Anyway, she thought her clothes were all pretty good-looking...
The day before leaving, Liu Tiao took out all the money he had saved recently. He planned to buy a gift for his big brother, and since the big brother took care of the big brother, he had to buy one for him too!
Alas, there were only twenty-five yuan left. It should have been more. He'd earned a damn thirty yuan working over the summer! But he hadn't controlled his mouth or legs, and after a few trips to the school canteen, this was all he had left...
"Hachijo, how much money do you have left?"
After fiddling with it, the six-legged beast's eyes lit up and his gaze fell on the eight-legged beast who was counting money with his back to him.
