"Dad, let me go into the house and see if I can find anything good."
Wang just entered the house and saw that the furniture and furnishings in the house were much better than when Old Man Gu died, and wanted to dig around. Things will be taken away later.
Before she could read it carefully, she was interrupted by Gu Dahan stopping Tong Zhijie from killing the chicken.
She washed off the chicken feces on her body, comforted Tong Zhijie, and got back into the room while Gu Dahan went out to buy groceries.
Tong Zhijie and Tong Zhaodi followed behind, and the three of them started a sweep like bandits entering the village.
"Auntie's room is here. I know where auntie keeps her money." Tong Zhijie came to the door of Tong Huaqiong's room by familiar means.
“Yeah, why did Auntie put the big lock on it.”
Tong Zhijie frowned when he saw the bright big lock on the door of Tong Huaqiong’s room.
Ms. Wang said: "Your aunt must have made a lot of money by opening a shop. This is to protect against the severe cold."
Ms. Wang is very sure that Tong Huaqiong's big lock must be to protect her stepson. of.
Tong Zhijie said: "When my aunt comes back in the evening, I will ask my aunt to make me two pairs of satin clothes and two pairs of new shoes, and I will also go to the best restaurant in Yanguan Town for a meal. These days at home, I feel like I have no words in my mouth. "Here he comes."
Ms. Wang tapped Tong Zhijie's forehead and said, "Just ask your aunt for it. If she doesn't give it to you, you'll get mad."
The mother and daughter were writhing in the upper room. lock up.
"This new dress must belong to Gu Jingzhe, I'll put it on first."
Tong Zhijie found a silk dress hanging on the shelf and took it in his hand.
His clothes were stained by chicken feces just now. Although Wang gave him water to wash them, there was still a stinky smell.
It doesn’t matter whether this piece of clothing belongs to Gu Jingzhe or Gu Dashu. Anyway, once he wants it, his aunt has no reason to refuse.
Tong Zhijie put on new clothes without any mental barriers.
"Taohua's house is not locked."
Tong Zhaodi's impression of Gu Taohua is that she is lazy, eats alone, and has a bad temper. She loses her temper if anyone touches her clothes or food.
But her aunt indulged her.
Tong Zhaodi came to Gu Taohua's house, her eyes red with jealousy.
She is also a daughter, how can Gu Taohua be favored by her family?
Not only does my aunt dote on me, but also my brothers dote on me.
Whatever delicious food there is at home, she stuffs it into Gu Taohua’s mouth, making her so fat at a young age.
Tong Zhaodi opened the closet and there were several new clothes hanging inside. She touched them with her hands and found that they were all made of good materials that she had never worn before.
If Gu Taohua wasn't too fat, she would definitely try it on.
What made her even more jealous was that Gu Taohua had a lot of jewelry.
She picked up the jewelry box and saw that there were bracelets, earrings, and various hairpins inside.
Especially the hairpin with pearls hanging on it, it is worth a lot at first glance.
"Gu Taohua's life is really good." Tong Zhaodi was envious and jealous.
Ms. Wang poked her head in, took a look, and curled her lips and said, "Who doesn't treat a girl like a piece of grass? Your aunt treats a cheap girl like a treasure. She is fat and has a bad temper at a young age. Okay, who will want her in the future? I don’t think she can find a good husband. Zhaodi, I tell you, you can’t follow Taohua’s example.”
Tong Zhaodi is very good. He said obediently: "Mom, I don't want to learn from Taohua."
Then he said angrily: "Gu Taohua doesn't know how to cook or wash clothes. She only knows how to lie down and eat and drink. When she gets angry, she even wakes up. They all scolded her. Why does she have good clothes and jewelry?"
While scolding, she picked up Gu Taohua's pearl hairpin and pinned it on her head.
If Gu Taohua was here, she would not dare to touch Gu Taohua's things, but Gu Taohua is not at home now, so she is not allowed to enjoy it.
Tong Zhaodi thought she would take it off after wearing it for a while.
In addition to wearing the hairpin, Tong Zhaodi also opened the rouge and gouache box on the table.
Smell it, it smells good. These rouges and gouache were given by Huang Jingshan, Huang's daughter.
Gu Taohua casually placed it on the table.
“This gouache looks better on my face than peach blossoms.”
Tong Zhaodi applied powder and rouge.
When I left Gu Taohua’s room, I saw a piece of soap on the washstand.
Tong Zhaodi felt even more unbalanced.
She had seen this soap at the sister-in-law of Pandi, her eldest sister. She said it was a very expensive item, something only used by ladies from wealthy families in Pingchuan County.
My sister-in-law Pan's soap was given to her by a lady from a wealthy family when she went to Pingchuan County to attend a banquet. She was reluctant to use it and put it on the table like a treasure.
But Gu Taohua casually placed such precious soap on the washstand.
Why does she live a more pampered life than a young lady from a rich family?
Tong Zhaodi picked up the soap, dipped it in water, and washed her hands with it.
"Hey, there is a plate of pastries here."
Wang took out a plate of butter cookies, ate one herself, and handed it to Tong Zhijie.
Tong Zhijie picked up the biscuit and wolfed it down.
"Zhijie, give me a piece."
If things were normal, Tong Zhaodi would definitely not ask Tong Zhijie for it.
But the smell of the pastry was so tempting. After being hungry all day, she just ate one leftover steamed bun in the kitchen, and she couldn't bear it anymore.
"I don't have enough to eat myself." Tong Zhijie refused without thinking.
Wang scolded at the side: "You, a girl, dare to snatch your brother's cakes and eat them. Are you worthy of it? If you eat one more piece, your brother will eat one less? You don't know that your brother has a day today?" You didn’t even eat much? You didn’t say you felt sorry for your brother, but you still wanted to snatch his cakes to eat.” Tong Zhaodi was scolded by Mr. Wang and walked out of the room while holding back her saliva.
Tong Zhijie has long been accustomed to Wang's scolding Tong Zhaodi and shrugged his shoulders at Wang's scolding.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." Mrs. Wang watched her son eating until his neck was stuck, and patted Tong Zhijie's back distressedly.
He scolded outside again: "Zhaodi, you just watch your brother eating cakes? Go and scoop him a bowl of water and give him a gift."
Tong Zhaodi came while holding back her saliva. In the kitchen, he poured a bowl of water and brought it to Tong Zhijie.
The mother and son rummaged around the upper room but found no money or anything else, and then walked out of the upper room.
At this time Gu Dahan came in carrying meat and vegetables.
Gu Dahan didn't understand why Tong Fusheng, a cheap uncle, gave him two taels of silver to buy meat and vegetables, but since he gave it to him, he spent it all.
He bought chickens, ducks and geese from other houses in the village. The big carp caught by Liu Tong, the son of the village chief, was also bought by Gu Dahan.
There are also two jars of wine and a plate of tofu.
Since the oil at home ran out at noon, before he had time to buy it, he used the money given by Tong Fusheng to buy a large barrel of rapeseed oil.
"Hurry up and cook, I'm starving." Tong Fusheng saw Gu Dahan carrying meat and vegetables through the door and ordered like an uncle.
"Dahan, you take care of the chickens, ducks and geese, and Zhaodi and I will cook. You don't have to go into the kitchen," said Wang.
Wang didn’t want Gu Dahan to get his hands on it, mainly because he didn’t want Gu Dahan to eat these meat dishes.
Gu Dahan nodded honestly and said, "That's okay."
Wang quickly lit a fire, took out eggs and flour, and planned to bake egg pancakes.
Anyway, it was the oil from my sister-in-law's house. If you don't use it, it will go to waste. Mrs. Wang poured the oil into the pot fiercely.
Gu Dahan finished cooking the chicken, duck, goose, and fish and sent them to the kitchen. When he saw the oil on the pancakes, the corner of his mouth twitched.
Normally he would feel distressed, but now he felt it didn't matter. After all, the money to buy gas was given by Tong Fusheng. (End of this chapter)
