Wow, what a smooth talker!
The eldest aunt sat aside, looking at her niece in surprise: If she had known she had this ability, why would she have come here so many times
This is well said, isn't it better than what you said yourself
For Song Tan, she had brought the tea with her, so how could she return empty-handed
Now he was speaking more and more excitedly:
"Besides, my hometown is right there. If I don't do well, you two can pack up and move back to the city. It won't affect me."
"Or you can tell the villagers that you are the elder and I am the younger. Just tell them that if I want to do something in the village, I have to take them into consideration, right?"
This is a combination of soft and hard tactics.
Seventh cousin was silent.
She didn't say anything, but Grandma Qi was already moved. She didn't say she couldn't stay in the city, but the old ladies around here were either enjoying their grandchildren or forming a dance team.
But she has neither grandchildren to take care of nor children to serve her, and she doesn't like being in crowded places.
Apart from listening to opera and strolling around at home, there is really no fun at all in daily life.
But televisions nowadays are difficult to use. It takes several minutes just to turn it on. When you turn it on, she doesn't know how to operate it, so it depends on luck which one to play... Grandma Qi doesn't say anything, but in fact, she is getting more and more anxious.
These past few days, my aunt and nephew have repeatedly told me that I wish I could just pick up my hoe and go back to the countryside, even if it's just to dig a few vegetable plots, it's better than hanging around in this house!
Her hesitation was so obvious that even the stubbornness of the seventh cousin began to crumble.
Song Tan smiled with satisfaction, thinking that this time it was a sure win.
Of course, I have brought all my trump cards, so I still have to show them off—
"Seventh cousin, don't be afraid of the unstable salary if you go back to the countryside to work. I'm not after your house, I mean it."
"Qiao Qiao, make some tea for Uncle Seven and some honey water for Aunt Seven."
Qiao Qiao is familiar with this job!
He put the paper box aside, and then obediently took his handbag to the kitchen. Although the environment was a little unfamiliar, it was quite interesting to make tea and soak water, and rummage through things, as if he was exploring a new world.
Therefore, although his movements were a little unfamiliar, he did not seem awkward at all.
Seeing Song Tan's proud look, the seventh cousin also remembered: "The locust flowers that grew on your hill yesterday?"
Song Tan's brows moved, and then he frowned slightly:
"Oh, did you eat it? Actually, the acacia flowers are not growing very well. They can't be compared with the vegetables we take good care of in our fields. I just eat them for the novelty."
When these Versailles words came out, my aunt was not happy at first:
Nonsense! Tantan, you didn't eat the locust flowers, did you? They were fresh, sweet and fragrant. Do you know how much of the locust flower pancakes I made last night your brother ate?"
She gestured a number with an exaggerated expression: "Seven!"
It's the middle of the night and the whole family is still looking for the stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets.
My aunt was determined not to let anyone slander such beautiful locust flowers.
Then he did not forget to show off his achievements to his seventh cousin:
"Uncle, this is really a thoughtful gift from my child. All the good things can be sent to you! My sister-in-law has also returned to her hometown. She only got a handful of locust flowers to try, not even half of what you got!"
Then he started to feel aggrieved again: "Even so, you still say I'm stingy - how am I stingy?"
The seventh cousin glanced at her and thought to himself, how can you not be stingy? If you want to buy these locust flowers, you should not send them to me!
but-
The quality of the locust flowers is really good.
They chatted until midnight yesterday and couldn't resist adding a midnight snack of steamed egg with locust flowers. They were so satisfied with it that they felt their stomachs were soothed when they went to bed at night.
Grandma Qi also muttered to Uncle Qi: "Have we been away from our hometown for too long? Why didn't we think things were so good when we were in the village?"
When she ate the leftover spicy stir-fried Sophora japonica flowers with millet porridge in the morning, Grandma Qi realized the difference in quality.
Watching Qiao Qiao groping in the kitchen, and hearing Song Tan's firmness and confidence when he said that he didn't want this house, the couple were expectant and therefore straightened their backs.
Qiao Qiao came out soon.
Ulan educated him well. Although it was his first time entering a stranger's kitchen, he was satisfied as long as he found the kettle he wanted and did not look around and annoy others.
My seventh cousin tidied the kitchen in an orderly manner. He placed several glass teacups upside down on the drain tray and rinsed them before using them.
He was pouring hot water back and forth between several cups, and finally made a cup of warm honey water and a cup of hot tea. His movements were meticulous and he didn't show any impatience at all.
Grandma Qi smiled so hard that her teeth were showing and her eyes were not—although the child is silly, she is honest and patient!
This alone is enough to cover up most of the shortcomings.
The hot water slowly spreads, and the unique fragrance of tea and the intoxicating sweetness of honey are intertwined. They do not conflict with each other, but make people look forward to it even more.
My seventh cousin has been immersed in cooking all his life. You can tell whether the food is good or not just by looking at the way he stands up!
Then, without waiting for Qiao Qiao to come over, he hurried over and took both cups in his hands.
The fragrant aroma permeated from head to toe, even my aunt couldn't help but be intoxicated and took a deep breath.
"My goodness, this good stuff must be worth a lot of money!"
Look at this Song Hongmei!
The seventh cousin thought in a depressed tone: Any good thing in her hands is like a pearl thrown away in the dark! Can such quality be a matter of money? Even if you have money, you can't get it!
Song Tan also whispered to her aunt: "Aunt, we came here in a hurry this time. I will bring you some to try next time I return to the city."
I was in such a hurry that I didn't take care of it.
The eldest aunt waved her hands repeatedly: "I don't want it, I don't want it!"
"No matter how good the food is, can it be as good as money? Tantan, please stop sending me food all the time. It's too delicious. I have to re-plan my food expenses for this month."
"If you really want to, in ten or eight years when your aunt is old and you come to visit her, secretly give her an extra two hundred yuan."
My aunt is very shrewd in her calculations - in ten or eight years, she will be old and won't be able to earn much money, so the money will be her confidence.
As for why I gave it secretly... Because if I gave money openly, the child would have to return the favor in the future! Of course I had to do it secretly, not as a favor, but as a gift from a niece to her aunt.
She said it very seriously, and she meant it this way sincerely.
This left Song Tan speechless.
To be honest, she has been in the world of immortal cultivation for so many years, but she has never met someone like her aunt, which shows how rare they are in the world.
But at this moment, she still nodded carefully: "Aunt, don't worry, I promise to do it!"
Everyone has their own ideas.
For the aunt, her niece has impeccable character. Now that she has agreed, she will have more money in the future.
No matter whether it is 200, 300 or 500, it makes people happy! Satisfied!
So she took another deep breath: "Oh, it smells so good!"
