"What's wrong, Auntie? I haven't heard anything about it!"
Do you know something we don't? Tell us quickly! Oh my, now that you mention it, I'm really curious. We even had a fight with them a couple of days ago.
What happened over there? Was it good news or bad news?
People who enjoy gossiping need emotional value, and Si Tian just happens to provide Tian Haiying with plenty of that value.
So she was happy to speak. She had just taken the small stool that Zhu Qinghao handed her and sat down, ready to start speaking, when Si Tian went to pour her a glass of water.
"Auntie, here's some water. Drink it yourself if you get thirsty later, so you don't go thirsty."
Then she moved a small stool herself, sat next to Tian Haiying, and pretended to be a good listener.
Tian Haiying found her appearance amusing, but still cooperated by telling her gossip.
"It was yesterday. I noticed that your brigade leader hadn't come back for a long time, so I went to the brigade headquarters to look for him. I heard from the accountant that he had been called to the educated youth settlement by Zhao, the educated youth."
I was puzzled at the time, wondering what they were doing at the educated youth settlement at this hour. Then I found out that something had happened there; apparently, a fight had broken out, and there was chaos.
"I didn't feel comfortable going directly at the time, so I could only go home and wait for your team leader uncle. But as soon as I got back, before I even asked him anything, he told me everything..."
And that's how the fight started. I heard that Zhu Pandi, the girl who came with you, got beaten so badly her face and head were covered in blood. Oh dear, it was a terrible sight.
I thought she was the only one who got hurt, but then I heard that the guy who was always hanging around with her got into a fight with another guy too…”
When Zhu Qinghao and Si Tian heard the news, they couldn't help but exchange a glance, their eyes filled with surprise.
The two of them were still waiting for them to unleash their ultimate move, but instead, the other side started fighting first, and several of them ended up with injuries.
"Oh my, this is really exciting good news, don't you think?"
Tian Haiying didn't hear clearly and got a little anxious, almost standing up.
"What? Sweetie, what did you say?"
"No, I didn't say anything about auntie. I said they deserved it. They fought such a big battle over something so trivial."
Tian Haiying didn't get an answer and didn't dwell on it; she just patted her thigh.
"Isn't that right? Just for something as simple as cooking, which we eat every day anyway, they're unwilling to do it. Some young people these days..."
Tian Haiying realized that the two people in front of her were also young people when she got to this point, so she quickly stopped talking.
"Oh, I wasn't talking about you two. You two have managed everything around the house so well. You're such diligent and clean girls."
Zhu Qinghao and Si Tian hadn't paid much attention to what she said and simply laughed it off.
"It's alright, Auntie. We know you're not talking about us. We can tell you really like us, don't you?"
Watching Si Tian act silly in front of her, Tian Haiying felt even more that it was really nice to have such a sweet and adorable daughter. It was a pity that all three of her family members were rough men.
"Of course, you two are my favorite educated youth. Look at you, you know so much and you don't put on airs. Some of the educated youth always act superior, and whatever they say is like I owe them tens of dollars."
Sigh, it made me so angry back then, but now I don't care anymore. Everyone has their own way of living, so let them do what they want.
