When the orange cat saw her working, he lay lazily on the kang and said, "I don't see that you still have such skills." '
'So you didn't choose me to be your master because of my talent? Is it purely for my beauty? I didn’t expect you four-legged beasts to be so superficial! After looking at its speech bubble, Su Tang winked at the orange cat.
The orange cat's beard was twitching wildly, and its eyes were staring at Su Tang. It chose this person as its master because it had a brain problem in the first place. What a hateful two-legged beast!
Su Tang liked to see it bulging with anger. She couldn't stop laughing. As she was smiling, she heard Su Nuo's voice coming from outside the house, "Sister, I'm back!"
Su Tang ignored the orange cat and put down the clothes in his hands. When he came out, he saw that the little guy's face was as dirty as a tabby cat. Seeing Su Tang coming, Su Nuo's eyes were bright, "Sister, I picked something smelly. Li Zi, do you still have a mop?"
Su Tang saw two kinds of fruits in the basket on the little guy's back. Su Tang took a look and realized that the red ones called Tuo Mo in the local dialect were actually raspberries from the mountains. Ripe raspberries had a sweet and sour taste and tasted great.
As for the stinky plum sugar, I don’t know what its scientific name is. It is also a common wild fruit on Heixiazi Mountain. It is a dark purple fruit the size of corn kernels. The ripe stinky plum tastes very sweet, but the skin of this wild fruit is very thick and astringent. The core is quite big.
So children usually pick stinky plums and eat them. Nowadays, people have refrigerators. If they put the stinky plums in the refrigerator to chill for two days and then take them out, they will be very sweet.
Seeing the little guy's happy expression, Su Tang smiled and nodded, "Well, Xiaonuo is great. Let's wash it off and eat the porridge first. Let's wash it off and eat it in the afternoon."
When Su Nuo heard what her sister said, she hesitated, "Can't you sell it for money? It's fine if I don't eat it."
The little guy was still thinking about working hard to make money. Su Tang touched his head, "But my sister wants to eat it. Why don't you buy your fruit?"
Su Tang couldn't bear to dampen the little guy's enthusiasm. As autumn was approaching, all kinds of fruits were harvested. The fruits were not valuable. The most important thing was that stinky plums were a snack often eaten by children in nearby villages, but the ones in the town People don't like to eat this stuff.
Raspberries can be sold at a higher price because they are sour and sweet, but they are rare. Su Nuo only got a handful of them, and they were not worth sending to the town to sell.
But Su Tang couldn't say this to the little guy. After all, he was so motivated and wanted to share the pressure with his sister, so Su Tang said this.
Unexpectedly, when Su Nuo heard her sister say that she wanted to eat, she immediately said, "Then give it to my sister. I don't have to sell it for money. What's mine belongs to my sister, and I don't need to pay for it."
Su Tang's well-behaved look warmed her heart, and she nodded, "Okay, then after we have dinner, how about we eat together?"
Su Nuo nodded happily, "Okay!" and swallowed.
He said that he didn't want to eat it. In fact, at his previous home, he mixed it with rice soup to avoid starving to death. Su Nuo had found these things before and had them taken away, so how could he not want to eat them.
He just wants to make money more. He knows how to be so restrained at a young age, which makes Su Tang feel distressed but also more optimistic about the little guy. With such a determined mind, there is nothing he can't accomplish.
The siblings washed their hands together and ate their fill of porridge. After that, Su Nuo washed the gizzards and raspberries in the yard. She sat on a small bench and lowered her head in the basin to wash them very seriously.
Su Tang sat in the room, lowering her head while making clothes. Occasionally she would look at the little back, smile, and continue working.
A warm leisure time...
