Chapter 213 New Year's Day



"Mrs. Su, where is the person? Why is he hiding in the kitchen?"

Aunt Xiulan came in carrying a small basket.

"Xiu Lan, please sit down." Su's mother handed her a stool.

"Oh, they've even lit a brazier." Aunt Xiulan stretched out her red, frozen hands to warm them.

"Mrs. Su, where is your grandma, Xiaowu?"

Aunt Wang's voice also came in.

"The kitchen."

Aunt Liao followed closely behind.

The small kitchen suddenly became crowded.

Su's mother simply moved the brazier to the living room, and a group of old women started chatting about family matters.

Su Qing felt bored, so he went to the door to watch the children set off firecrackers.

The leader of the children, Su Qianfan, was leading a few other kids to blast... no, they were blasting cow dung.

"Su Qianfan."

It was too late for Su Qing to shout out.

The firecrackers have been lit.

Xiaowu and Xiaoliu were held in Su Qianshan and Su Qianfan's arms and ran wildly.

Bang!

The dry and hard cow dung on the outside was blown open, revealing the soft part inside.

Li Zhaonan was unable to dodge and was splashed all over.

Now she has gone home crying to find her grandma.

After a while, the voice of Old Lady Li cursing was heard again in the Li family.

Old Mrs. Li had already seen how powerful Su Qing was, so she didn't dare to go to his house to ask for an explanation. She could only vent her anger by scolding her disappointing granddaughter.

"Are you stupid? Are those two legs just for show? Everyone else is running but you're not. Why are you so eager to eat something hot?"

Li Zhaonan cried and wailed. Her only cotton coat was soiled, and it was a big problem how she was going to go out. She refused to listen to anything Old Lady Li said.

"Why are you crying? You're crying on New Year's Day. All your good luck has been scared away by you. Hold up your clothes and I'll wipe them clean for you."

After wiping for a long time, the dirt was indeed wiped off, but the smell was still there.

Between freezing and stinking, she chose to stink.

After wiping away her tears, she happily followed the dung bombing team again, and then fell into the trap again.

Now even the eyes and nose are covered.

The whole pot of hot water was used for Li Zhaonan to take a bath.

Looking at her granddaughter washing cotton clothes in the yard, Old Mrs. Li was so angry that her teeth were itching.

Stupid, so stupid, how could someone get splashed with shit in exactly the same position.

In order to make the cotton-padded clothes dry faster, Li Zhaonan hung them in the kitchen and then ran back into the house wearing only a single layer of clothing.

It seemed that she couldn't go anywhere until her cotton coat was dry.

Li Niuniu looked at the children playing with envy, and only hid back in the house when she couldn't stand the cold anymore.

Li Zhaonan was delighted to see Li Niuniu coming back. "Niuniu, you're so nice. You came to accompany me knowing that I couldn't go out to play."

However, Li Niuniu only came back because her clothes were too thin and her lips were frozen purple.

But she neither denied nor admitted it.

Knowing that the Su family had to eat three meals a day, Aunt Xiulan, Aunt Wang and the others left before lunch.

The playing children also dispersed.

Because it was windy again, their clothes were very thin and they could only stay at home to get a little warmer.

The Su family didn't have many friends, so no one came in the afternoon. Su's mother simply closed the door, and the family played cards while warming themselves by the fire.

Su Qianfan couldn't sit still. He either used the tongs to stir the firewood in the brazier into a mess, or scared Xiaowu and Xiaoliu.

Wenli hates her son so much, he is like a monkey and can't have a moment of peace.

"Qian Fan, go find your sister Daya. She left this morning and hasn't come back yet."

"Don't be afraid, my sister Daya's appearance is so stunning that it will make the world weep. She will be fine."

"Why, don't you know who the ugliest person in the family is? I thought you were pretty self-aware. If you really don't know, go take a piss and look at yourself."

Wen Li successfully drove Su Qianfan out of the house with her sharp tongue.

At this time, Daya was in Shuiqu Village.

"An Minzhi, yes, I'm here to give you a New Year's gift."

There were only An Minzhi and two elderly people in Shed N.

Since An Minzhi often praised the two old men in front of Daya and the others, Daya did not shy away from it and walked straight into the cowshed.

"These are food, and these are clothes. See if you and grandpa and grandma can wear them. If not, just take them apart and sew them again. This is needlework.

This is my grandma's homemade frostbite ointment. Your hands are already cracked, so you should apply it more frequently."

An Minzhi's eyes were hot.

He would agree to whatever Daya said.

He knew that his grandfather could not take many things with him, and most of them were spent by him on funeral arrangements. How could he deserve such heartfelt treatment from the Su family?

"Okay, I've put the food here. It's getting dark early now, so I have to go back. Oh, and the jar contains dried meat. Remember to eat it up quickly, or it will go bad."

An Minzhi watched Daya leave.

Go back to the house and check the bag carefully.

I found that there were exactly three cotton coats inside, and everyone wore them very well.

He skillfully made a coverlet out of rags and put it on the outside, and a tattered beggar's clothes was born.

He followed the same method and sewed a coat for the elderly man who lived with him.

When I put my hand into my pocket, there was a stack of change in it, which added up to five dollars.

It can be seen that all of this was saved by Daya penny by penny.

He carefully hid the money in his inner clothes without telling anyone.

He wants to use the money to buy books and study.

In order to have enough ability to repay Daya and the Su family in the future.

When Daya returned to the village entrance, she saw Su Qianfan lying lazily under the banyan tree.
