Chapter 191 You bring the bowl over

The whole compound was stewing meat, but Tong Fang's family didn't buy any mutton.

Not only the three children, but even the adults were hungry.

Sister Li looked at the table full of cabbage and potatoes, and suddenly felt that she couldn't eat.

"Mom, I want to eat meat too." Gou Wa looked up at her.

I clearly heard Tong Fang say that he was going to buy meat today, but he came back empty-handed.

The whole yard was filled with the smell of meat, but they didn't have meat to eat.

Sister Li swallowed her saliva, pulled Erniu over, and stuffed a bowl into her.

"You bring the bowl over and ask Uncle He to give you some meat."

Tong Yuan opened his mouth. He subconsciously wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. Isn't this begging?

Tong Fang pursed her lips and advised: "Sister Li, forget it. I'll go buy it from Brother Yue later."

But Sister Li was unwilling and pushed Erniu out the door.

"Why go to her to buy it? She is just mean and deliberately gave us the lamb chops with many bones. If we really go to her to buy it, wouldn't it be a loss?"

Tong Fang's expression froze, but there was no reason to go to someone's house to beg for food.

At this time, Erniu had already gone out with a bowl in her hand, knelt at the door of the south room, and shouted at the door.

"Uncle He, please be kind and give me a bite of meat."

She was very familiar with these things.

She used to be like this in the countryside. If

someone's family had good things, Gou Wa would steal them.

If Gou Wa didn't steal them, she would kneel at the door and beg people, and she would always get the things.

Hearing the noise, He Tingyue, Jiang Yu and others came out one after another.

The family had almost finished eating, and there was still some soup left in the bowl.

As they were sitting and chatting, they saw Erniu.

"Erniu, what are you doing?" He Feiyan looked at her in disbelief.

Erniu held the bowl and stretched out her hand.

"Sister, give me a bite of meat."

He Feiyan sneered, "Did your mother ask you to come here to beg? Do you know what this is? Only beggars would do this!"

Erniu retracted her hand in fear and looked at her helplessly.

But she has always been like this since she was a child.

Xu Lihua poked her head out of the house and saw Erniu kneeling in the yard in the cold weather, her eyes widened.

"Tsk tsk, Li Suqin, is this how you teach your children? You let your children block people's doors to beg for food? Your ancestors were not beggars, right? Isn't this a family tradition?"

Sister Li didn't want to show up at first, she hid in the background and waited for Erniu to bring the meat back.

In the past, in the countryside, when someone's family cooked meat, adults were too embarrassed to go to the door to beg, so they let the children go with bowls, and they could always get one or two pieces of meat, or at least meat soup.

Who knew that Jiang Yu's family was so cruel, Erniu knelt down, but they still didn't give her the meat.

But when Xu Lihua yelled, many people in the compound came out.

Especially Old Man Duan, his face sank, and he frowned and said, "Hurry up and get that person up. If this gets out, what will happen to our compound!"

"Zhengdong Lilan, you two help Erniu up." Jiang Yu said.

He Zhengdong and He Lilan each held one of Erniu's arms and forcibly pulled her up from the ground.

He Zhengdong said with a stern face: "Didn't your teacher in school tell you that there is gold under your knees?"

Erniu was at a loss, "I haven't been to school."

He Zhengdong frowned, "It's to tell you that you have to have backbone and can't kneel down at every turn. There are many things in this world that we can get with our own hands, but we can't get them without hard work. Everyone thinks that begging can get what they want, and everyone begs like you, isn't it a mess?"

Erniu didn't understand these principles, her mother taught her this way.

In fact, this method is very useful, and she can get things back almost every time.

Jiang Yu looked at her like this and shook his head secretly.

Some thoughts have already been formed in her mind, and it is impossible to explain them to her.

"Tong Fang, this person came from your house. Are you going to be a shrunken turtle now?" He Tingyue shouted.

Tong Fang had no choice but to walk out of the house.

He was ashamed and embarrassed.

"Brother Yue, I didn't ask this kid to come out."

At this time, Sister Li suddenly ran out in a hurry, grabbed Erniu and slapped her.

"I said where did you go when you didn't want to eat, and you actually knelt at someone's door to beg for food. Who taught you to do this? Hurry up and apologize to him!"

Erniu was hurt by the beating, and was scolded by Sister Li. She felt wronged and started crying.

Jiang Yu looked at her coldly and laughed.

"Sister Li, so you said that it was not you who asked Erniu to come over?"

Sister Li smiled flatteringly, "Of course not, why would I do that."

Unfortunately, Tong Yuan shouted and exposed her just as she finished speaking.

"Aunt Li is lying, she was the one who asked Erniu to come over! My dad didn't let her come, but she insisted that Erniu come over."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the yard quieted down, and there was a hint of contempt in their eyes when they looked at Sister Li.

Old Master Duan's eyes were gloomy. He didn't teach Sister Li a lesson, but he couldn't help but talk about Tong Fang.

"You brought her here, so you should teach her well. If people from other courtyards see this, it will ruin our reputation."

Sister Li was so embarrassed that she quickly pulled Erniu back to the house.

Tong Fang was not much better than her. She nodded in shame and said, "I didn't control her well. There won't be a next time."

Xu Lihua said sarcastically, "Tong Fang, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but no matter how kind you are, you have to know your limits. Your salary is not high, and it's more than enough to raise a son, but you will have to marry a wife in the future. If you use your money to raise children for outsiders, let alone the present, what will happen to Tong Yuan in the future?"

The grandmother agreed with her for once: "Tong Fang, your Aunt Xu is right. You have to think about it carefully."

After returning to the house, Tong Fang looked at the bitter face of Li Saozi as she left, and felt a little impatient.

"I told them not to go. Take good care of them in the future and don't let them do these things again."

Li Saozi said hesitantly, "I saw that Tong Yuan wanted to eat meat, and I was afraid that he was hungry, so I wanted Erniu to go out and ask for some meat."

Tong Yuan immediately yelled, "No, it's obviously Brother Gou Wa who wants to eat meat! I want to eat, but I won't go out and ask for meat."

Li Saozi's face changed drastically. If Tong Fang was not here, she would definitely scold him.

But as soon as her face changed, she realized that Tong Fang was here, and she had to suppress her dissatisfaction, which made her face a little distorted.

Tong Fang sighed, "Why don't you send your two children back?"

Since these two children came, there has been no peace in the house.

Sister Li's expression changed very quickly, and she started crying with her hands covering her face.

She pulled the two children to kneel in front of Tong Fang, crying about her difficulties.

"Sister-in-law knows that you think we are too much trouble, but these two children have lost their grandmother, and there is no one to take care of them in the countryside. Sending them back will kill them!"

Tong Fang couldn't stand her like this, and she compromised almost immediately.

"Okay, okay, get up quickly, remember to take good care of them in the future, and pretend I didn't say anything."
