Chapter 173: Account
Tang Yixiao was left in the clinic, so there was one less person to go back.
Seeing that Tang Luwu remained silent, Qin Huiyin took her hand and said, "Although my brother's health has improved a lot, he is still a sickly person. Especially in winter, he spends most of his time in bed. If this Doctor Wei can really regulate his body and let him grow up like a normal boy, it will be a blessing for him."
"I know." Tang Luwu said, "That doctor Wei can not only take care of his body, but also teach him medical skills. These are all opportunities for me. It's just that I have never been apart from you, and he's suddenly not around, so I'm a little uncomfortable with it. Yinyin, don't worry, I'll get used to it after a while."
"Go visit him next time you go to the city and bring him some delicious food. The eldest brother has his own way to go, the younger brother has his own way to go, and we have our own way to go."
"Yinyin, I'm not smart, nor am I as knowledgeable as you. I just know that it's right to listen to you." Tang Luwu held her hand tightly. "Don't despise me."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Huiyin hugged Tang Luwu's shoulders. "You are my sister, my sister for life."
Li Taohua continued to run the business with her two daughters. Although there was no man in the family, it did not affect their lives at all.
However, in order to make everyone less tired, Li Taohua, her mother and her two daughters discussed it and decided to hire Xiang Chuntao and Wang Juying to help them at the stall.
Xiang Chuntao and Wang Juying were so happy when they received the news of Qin Huiyin's employment that they couldn't stop smiling. They worked very actively, learned things very quickly, and got the hang of it quickly.
Qin Huiyin found that Xiang Chuntao and Wang Juying were more skillful than each other. With their help, they suddenly had more free time, so they started to implement a rotation system.
Now, the three of them, mother and daughter, plus Xiang Chuntao and her sister, are responsible for the food at the stall, and one person can stay to rest at a time. Tang Sanye is old, and it is not good to let him work hard all the time, so Tang Sanye, Song Tieniu and Zhang Jieba also take turns to rest. Two men go at a time, not only to help when moving heavy objects, but also to protect the women when they encounter rogues.
The villagers were envious when they saw that Song Tieniu and Zhang Jieba's families had become rich with Li Taohua and her daughter. Those who used to look down on Li Taohua's behavior now took the initiative to show their affection to her. It was a pity that Li Taohua was vindictive and remembered all the gossips she had said about her in the past. She would never give them a chance. Those who had not offended her could drink some broth even if they did not eat the meat.
"Who is the bastard who pulled out all my vegetable seedlings? Who is it? If you have the guts, stand up and let me know who did it. I will chop off his hands." Aunt Song stood in the vegetable patch, putting her hands on her hips and cursing.
The woman in the vegetable garden next door gloated, "Aunt, who did you offend? Yesterday, manure was thrown in the yard of your home, and today, the vegetable seedlings were pulled out."
Ever since Uncle Song and Aunt Song found out that Song Tiegen had gained a high position at the dam and became the manager, they have been showing off everywhere all day long, bragging that their son was so capable because he was smart since he was young.
Except for widow Wang, whose husband died and whose children were too young to send people to repair the dam, almost all other families in the village sent people to work. Who would be happy to hear that people like Song Tiegen became managers but their families did not send back any news? In addition, Uncle Song and Aunt Song were not good people, so except for a few families who shared the same bad taste with them, everyone else hated them.
Now that something has happened, there are many people who are gloating over the misfortune and no one is here to comfort them.
Qin Huiyin walked back holding the wooden basin and told Li Taohua what had just happened.
Li Taohua gestured with the silver hairpin she had just bought on her head.
"I pulled them out." Li Taohua said lazily, "His son sent people to bully me, and I just threw manure all over her yard and pulled out the seedlings in her vegetable garden. I let her off easy."
"When was it spilled? How come I don't know?" Qin Huiyin sat down opposite her.
Li Taohua took off the silver hairpin and inserted it on Qin Huiyin's head: "This pattern is more suitable for a girl like you. It's a bit inappropriate for me to wear it."
"Who said that? My mother is more delicate than an 18-year-old girl! Put it on quickly." Qin Huiyin flattered him and continued to ask, "When did you go there? Why didn't you call me?"
"I asked Song Tieniu to go. Those things are so smelly, what if they splash on me? I told him I would give him ten cents and ask him to accompany me to do something bad in the middle of the night. The boy was so scared that he almost cried. What a fool, what else can I do with him? I told him directly that I wanted to deal with the Song couple and told him the plan. He patted his chest and said that he didn't need money and he could go, so I sent him. I didn't show up, and he finished it alone. As for the seedlings, when I went to pick vegetables today, I saw his field and pulled them out because I felt unhappy."
Qin Huiyin couldn't stop laughing.
The mother and daughter continued to study today's hair accessories, hairstyle, makeup and dresses.
Li Taohua took out the newly made clothes and asked Qin Huiyin to try them on.
After Qin Huiyin put on the new clothes, Li Taohua started to change her hairstyle.
Usually Qin Huiyin always likes to tie her hair into a high ponytail for convenience. Li Taohua couldn't stand it anymore and always wanted to change her hairstyle. Today everyone was free, so it was a good time to put it into action.
When Tang Luwu walked in, Qin Huiyin had just finished combing her hair. She stood in front of her and turned around: "How do you like this dress? And my hair, does it look good?"
Tang Luwu said: "It's beautiful. Yinyin is the most beautiful girl in the village."
"Come here too, I'll help you comb your hair. How come you don't like to dress up as a girl?" Li Taohua greeted Tang Luwu.
Tang Luwu said shyly: "Mom, my aunt is here with my cousin."
"Where?"
"In the yard."
Li Taohua stood up and said, "Since you have guests, I'll comb your hair another day. Let's go and take a look. Don't be rude."
Li Taohua came out with her two daughters.
In the yard, a woman in patched clothes stood with a skinny girl. She had wrinkles all over her face and gray hair. She was Tang Dafu's sister, but she looked like an old woman. The girl next to her was not much younger than Tang Luwu, and was about the same height as Tang Yixiao.
"Mother Yun, bring the children in and sit down!" Li Taohua said, "Your eldest brother is not here, Brother Chen is in the academy, and Brother Xiao is an apprentice in the clinic. There are only three of us at home."
"Sister-in-law..." Tang Caiyun knelt down and kowtowed to Li Taohua. "We really can't survive anymore, so we have no choice but to ask for help from you, sister-in-law."
