"Brother Tian, are you up?"
"Get up, get up..."
Chu Tian strode open the door of the dugout. Seeing the tightly wrapped Sun Weiguo, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly made way for him, saying, "Weiguo, it's cold outside, come in..."
Sun Weiguo looked hesitant. "Are my sister-in-law and the others up yet? Is it inconvenient for me to go in?"
Chu Tian smiled and said, "We're all up now, there's nothing inconvenient. Come in quickly, it's so cold outside..."
The three of them had actually woken up a long time ago, but it was too cold outside in the morning and they really didn't want to go out in the cold. Also, there was nothing delicious at Old Chu's breakfast. It was just a bowl of clear porridge. It would be better to drink the chicken soup noodles made from the chicken soup that Yao Xiujuan left yesterday in their own room.
Sun Weiguo walked into the dugout and hurriedly greeted Yao Xiujuan, who was cleaning the stove. "Hello, sister-in-law..."
"Weiguo, please sit down."
Yao Xiujuan straightened up, smiled, took a chair and placed it in front of him, and poured him a bowl of sugar water.
Sun Weiguo took the bowl and said embarrassedly, "Sister-in-law, you are too polite..."
Yao Xiujuan just smiled shyly and didn't say anything else.
Chu Tian moved a bench and sat opposite Sun Weiguo, "Weiguo, have you eaten?"
Sun Weiguo took a sip of the sweet syrup and nodded quickly, "I've eaten it, I've eaten it. Brother Tian, don't worry about me!"
Chu Tian ignored what Sun Weiguo said, but turned to look at Yao Xiujuan. She had already put the pot on the stove and was adding water to it. "Xiujuan, Weiguo is staying for dinner, so you should cook more."
Yao Xiujuan said "Oh", poured the chicken soup into the pot, and then scooped two bowls of water into the pot.
Sun Weiguo was stunned and waved his hands quickly, "Brother Tian, I've eaten..."
Chu Tian glanced at him and said calmly, "What can I eat in the morning? Be obedient and eat some more here with Brother Tian..."
“····”
Chu Tian was right. During the slack season, basically every household had a bowl of porridge. The only difference was the thickness of the porridge. Sun Weiguo's family was not the richest in the production team, but they were also in the middle. Apart from anything else, at least his family had never let the children go hungry. But that was limited to not going hungry. During the slack season, there was no way they could have a full or very good meal...
Seeing that Sun Weiguo came so early, Yao Xiujuan must have something to say to Chu Tian. She boiled water, mixed the batter, and then carried Wu Ya to meet her physiological needs. Their dugout was not big to begin with, and now with the addition of a stove, it became even smaller.
Moreover, Yao Xiujuan and Chu Tian both love cleanliness, and always feel that putting a chamber pot in the sleeping place is too dirty, so there is no chamber pot in the dugout where they live. If they need to meet their physiological needs, they have to go to the toilet outside!
Chu Tian, "Weiguo, is there something you need that brings you here so early?"
Sun Weiguo said, "My father went to see the captains of the other three teams in our company yesterday..." and then looked at Chu Tian.
"Well, then?"
Chu Tian nodded and gestured to continue.
Sun Weiguo took off his hat and put it aside. "My father said that the educated youth in those three teams were always looking for trouble. Even the educated youth in the first team with the best conditions in our company were very picky and complained about the adobe houses they lived in..."
Chu Tian raised his eyebrows, obviously not surprised by this result at all.
Sun Weiguo sighed, "My father and the other three captains went to the Sixth and Fifth Companies yesterday. We agreed with the captains of their companies to go to the Youth League Office to report to the leaders today..."
Chu Tian said "hmm", then felt something was wrong and looked at Sun Weiguo in confusion, "Just go find the leader, why are you looking for me?"
Sun Weiguo scratched his head embarrassedly, "My dad, he wants you, Brother Tian, to go with him..."
Chu Tian pointed at himself in surprise, "Let me go? What can I do if I go?"
Sun Weiguo hesitated and said, "I asked you to go and report this to the leadership..."
“····”
When Yao Xiujuan came back carrying Wu Ya, she saw Chu Tian's expression of despair and Sun Weiguo's embarrassed and apologetic look. She was very confused and wanted to ask something, but the water in the pot happened to boil at this time. She hurriedly put Wu Ya on the ground, washed her hands, and poured the batter into the pot while stirring it.
After regaining her freedom, Wu Ya instantly ran into Chu Tian's arms and called out sweetly, "Daddy, grandma is scolding Sister Daya again, saying that she won't let Sister Daya eat..."
Chu Tian looked at Yao Xiujuan after hearing this, "What happened to Daya?"
Yao Xiujuan said without turning her head, "It seems that mother complained that Daya was late in cooking..."
Chu Tian rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Isn't breakfast usually prepared at this time?"
"I guess the old lady has endocrine disorders and is looking for trouble..."
Yao Xiujuan, “…”
Sun Weiguo, who was sitting opposite him, was stunned when he heard this. "Brother Tian? What is endocrine disorder?"
Chu Tian smiled slightly, "It's okay, I just mean that my mother is probably in a bad mood."
After saying that, he lowered his head and asked Wu Ya, "Wu Ya, what should you do if your sister Daya can't eat in the morning?"
Wu Ya put her hands on her face and thought seriously. After a moment, she said, "Dad, can we give Sister Daya a meal?"
Chu Tian smiled dotingly, "Then Wu Ya will ask your mother if the rice she cooked is enough to give your sister Daya a bowl..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ya came out of Chu Tian's arms, ran to Yao Xiujuan, hugged her legs, raised her head and asked pitifully, "Mom, can you give some to Sister Daya? Wu Ya can eat less..."
