Tang Niannian returned home and gave Mrs. Tang one hundred and ninety-nine two cents. She only wanted one hundred yuan, and with Yang Hongling's forty, she now had a huge sum of one hundred and fourteen.
"Why do you, girl, carry so much money with you? The milk is kept for you. If you want to buy something, ask the milk for it!"
Mrs. Tang was very dissatisfied. This damn girl spends money lavishly. One hundred and fourteen dollars will definitely not last in this damn girl's pocket for a month.
"I'm of great use. This is erbium. I'll catch more money in the future."
Tang Niannian's expression was serious and her tone was sincere, because she was telling the truth.
Mrs. Tang didn't believe it and sneered: "Your hands are looser than a chicken's claws, and you still want to make money? Don't give away your belongings to Amitabha!"
Tang Niannian puffed up her cheeks and wanted to refute, but Mrs. Tang didn't give her a chance and counterattacked her with an example: "You are still not convinced. How much food did you feed that wolf cub when you were a child? Have you forgotten about this?"
"And the Qi Guohua brother and sister, those white-eyed wolves, how much have they learned from you?"
"I was playing a long game to catch the big fish, and look, the big fish is in your pocket!"
In the case of the Qi Guohua brothers and sisters, Tang Niannian was very unconvinced and pointed at the old lady's pocket. She just put the warm banknotes in her pocket, but she refused to accept them.
Mrs. Tang choked, closed her pockets, and said angrily: "What about the wolf cub? He ate so much food from our family, but where is the big fish you caught? Is he gone and never coming back?"
Tang Niannian thought about it for a long time before he remembered that this wolf cub that the old lady was talking about actually had such a thing.
The wolf cub lives in the cowshed. No one knows his name. People in the village call him wolf cub because the boy lived with a group of wild wolves when he was a child. Mr. Tang Qingshan found him when he went hunting in the mountains and brought him back.
At that time, the wolf cub was timid and sensitive. He bared his teeth when he saw people. He also imitated the wolf to walk on all fours and moved very quickly. The origin of this child was unknown and no one in the village was willing to adopt it. Tang Qingshan wanted to raise it, but Mrs. Tang did not agree.
In the end, a few old men in the cowshed adopted the child. Every time Tang Qingshan hunted, he would give some to the cowshed. The wolf cub did not play with the children in the village, but he had a good relationship with Tang Niannian.
Tang Niannian often stole food from home and fed it to the wolf cub. Every time Mrs. Tang saw it, she pretended not to see it. When Tang Niannian was ten years old, the wolf cub was picked up by someone driving a jeep.
The wolf cub came to say goodbye to Tang Niannian and gave her a wolf fang. The two never saw each other again after that.
Tang Niannian recalled this past event, and a dark boy with bright eyes appeared in her mind. He was thin and shorter than her.
Tsk, little wretch!
Mrs. Tang thought she had a guilty conscience and snorted proudly, "Can't you tell me? That wolf cub's big fish will never be thought of again in this life!"
"Not always!"
Tang Niannian blurted out without even thinking about it.
Although she also felt that this wave of investment was generally a loss, she must not admit defeat and just go for it!
"Mistress, from now on I will make a lot of money and give you big gold bracelets that will cover your legs, arms and neck!"
Tang Niannian started to draw the pie. Although Mrs. Tang was greedy for money and stingy, she had a good heart. She had not treated her badly over the years. She had the best food and drink. She also provided for high school. In rural areas, there are very few girls who can go to high school. And little.
"I'm a dog? And I still have a lot of hair hanging around my neck?"
Mrs. Tang rolled her eyes, but with a smile on her lips, she didn't ask for a hundred dollars anymore. She was just here to help this girl.
She was a poor girl when she thought about it. The Tang family was so rich back then in Shanghai. They lived in a villa and drove a foreign car. If not...this girl was a rich lady!
The old lady softened her heart and softened her voice, "I'm going to work. Don't go out and run around in the afternoon. Take good care of yourself at home. The fever is already 40 or 50 degrees, and I don't know if your brain is burned out!"
"Nai, I'll go to the mountains to hunt wild boars for you!"
Tang Niannian's expression was particularly sincere. She was hungry for pork.
Bai Sui said that there are many wild boars in the mountains, but they are particularly ferocious deep in the mountains.
But it doesn't matter, she has space and is very ferocious. The wild boar will only run away when it sees her!
"Hit you on the head!"
Mrs. Tang had already walked to the door. After hearing this, she turned around and glared fiercely, not taking it seriously at all.
Since the old man left, there has been no one in the village who can hunt wild boars. This damn girl is always talking about cheating. Even if the wild boar crashes and dies in front of her, her thin arms will not be able to drag it back.
Mrs. Tang cursed and went to work, leaving only Tang Niannian and Tang Jiujin at home, staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and Tang Wujin who was crying in the house. No one paid attention to her.
"Second sister, I'm going to kill pigweed."
The little girl is very busy. Although she is only seven years old, she has to collect firewood and collect pig grass every day. Her small shoulders bear a big burden.
Tang Niannian also carried a basket and a hatchet, and went up the mountain with Jiu Jin.
Baisui wagged his tail and followed them.
Once on the mountain, Jiujin found a lush grass slope with ease and skillfully cut it with a sickle. Tang Niannian stood on the hillside and looked out, with Baisui standing next to her.
"Second sister, where are you going?"
Jiujin asked loudly.
"Look up there."
Tang Niannian answered casually, and climbed up the mountain with Bai Sui. In early spring in the south of the Yangtze River, the mountains are tender green, and there is a strong fragrance of wintersweet in the air. There are many wild wintersweet trees on the mountain, which are especially fragrant when they are in full bloom.
Halfway up the mountain, there was a thin old man wearing glasses, sitting against a tree and looking at two cows on the slope. The cows were grazing leisurely and wagging their tails.
The old man is very thin, but also very swollen. His face is sallow and swollen. He wears a Chinese tunic suit that has been washed white and has many patches. There is tape on the temples of the old man's glasses. He looks very miserable, but his whole body But there is a scent of books from top to bottom.
Tang Niannian glanced at the old man and walked forward without squinting. The old man also saw her, but glanced at her lightly and continued to stare at the cow.
These people have no contact with the people in the village.
"Lao Zhang, look what is this?"
A tall old man, also wearing a patchwork Chinese tunic suit, ran over happily with his hands in his hands.
"Eat quickly, it's sweet."
What the old man is holding is white and tender Imperata cogongrass root, a snack for rural children. It has a faint sweet taste, but it does not satisfy hunger.
Imperata cogongrass, have you ever eaten it?
