  Chapter 49 Bathing

  At this time, the two cousins, when the cousins ​​were pestering Zhao Zhitong to teach calligraphy, they all ran to help with the work.

  Zhao Cheng noticed that the water tank was empty, so he immediately took the burden to fetch water.

  Zhao Yu saw that Zhao Dong and Sun Youli were chopping firewood, so he diligently moved the firewood they had chopped into the woodshed.

  Recently, I cook a lot of tofu, so I have a lot of firewood. Fortunately, there are uncles who help me go up the mountain to collect firewood. There is no shortage of firewood at home, but I need to cut firewood every day.

Zhao Dong saw two industrious little figures, and immediately asked: "Zhao Cheng, Zhao Yu, your cousins ​​are all learning to read from Tong Tong, why don't you two go? Stop working, Let's practice calligraphy with my brothers and sisters too."

  Zhao Cheng waved his hands in a hurry: "No, no, I... I'm stupid, I can't learn that, I'll fetch water."

   After finishing speaking, he carried his load and ran out the door, as if he was afraid that Zhao Dong would not let him go.

  Zhao Yu nodded again and again, looked up at Zhao Dong, grinned and said, "Uncle, I like to work."

  A child who was barely eight years old, his eyes should have been clear and childlike, but now there was a trace of ingratiating care. When he looked at him, Zhao Dong suddenly felt sour.

  At this time, the more he forbids them to work, the more uncomfortable it will be for the children, so Zhao Dong laughed and said, "Okay, then slow down and don't fall."

   Zhao Yu really laughed, answered, and started to work diligently.

   Today, to celebrate Zhao Zhitong’s first day of school, when the first and second aunts came, they brought a big rooster from home, which was being stewed in the pot at this time, and the aroma filled the whole yard.

  At this time, Sun Mei poked her head out from the kitchen and called out to Sun Youcai who was in the yard: "Third brother, go and pick up our parents and eldest brother, the meal is almost ready."

   "Hey, good!"

  Sun Youcai responded, put down his work, got up and walked out the door.

   Not long after, grandpa, grandma and uncle all came.

  At that time, Sun Mei and the others had already started setting up tables and benches. Because there were so many people, Sun Mei went to Shitou's house to borrow a table and chairs.

  The little radish heads were already hungry, and after Sun Mei called to prepare dinner, they all ran over, circled the table, and showed off to their mother that they learned three words from Zhao Zhitong today.

  The first aunt and the second aunt both had smiles on their faces, and they liked Zhao Zhitong, the little niece even more.

  Second aunt Liu smiled happily: "Sure enough, it's red, red, and black..."

  The second aunt talked for a long time, but she didn't express her meaning.

  Sun Youcai was amused by the side and laughed straight away: "Second sister-in-law, do you want to say 'those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black'."

  The second aunt nodded again and again: "That's right, that's the one, that's the one. Hey, your second sister-in-law has never been educated, so she can't speak like you can read."

  The eldest aunt also agreed with a smile.

   Previously, the few children in their family were all talkative, and they were unwilling to learn to read from their grandfather. Even if they were forced to learn, they couldn't remember one of them for a long time.

  It’s all right now, with the role model of my little niece, those little kids have made progress.

  They don't ask a few children to take exams for fame. It is also good for them to be able to read a word and be an accountant in the future.

  At this time, Zhao Zhitong, their role model, was being called by Sun Kang to do his school homework.

  Zhao Zhitong has already memorized half of the first part of the "Ode on the Nature of Medicine", and he is reciting it with Sun Kang.

  Listening to the baby's baby-like recitation, Sun Kang was relieved, this girl really has talent.

   After reciting the sentence "Maimendong clears the heart, relieves polydipsia and relieves lung heat", Zhao Zhitong stopped: "Grandpa, Tongtong from behind can't memorize it yet."

  Sun Kang took out the pipe at his waist, and smiled cheerfully: "Well, it's not bad, Tongtong is already doing very well."

  Zhao Zhitong was not very happy, she thought she would be able to recite the first chapter soon. However, there are many characters in it that she doesn't understand, so she has to circle them and ask her husband before reciting them, which makes her recite them very slowly.

   pouted and said: "But, grandpa, what do these sentences mean? Tongtong doesn't quite understand."

  Shunkang smoked a cigarette, said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, these grandpas will tell you little by little."

  Hearing this, Zhao Zhitong hurriedly handed the book to grandpa, staring at him with bright eyes, waiting for grandpa to tell her.

  The granddaughter is so eager to learn, Sun Kang couldn't help but talk more.

  The grandparents and grandchildren on their side are serious about teaching, and the dinner is already on the table over there, and grandma has already started calling for people.

  The grandparents and grandsons finally stopped.

  The same dishes are placed on the two dining tables, and children love to get together. A few radishes are hurriedly crowded on one table, and the adults sit on the other.

  As the saying goes, ‘It’s not good for one pig to eat it, but it’s good for two pigs fighting for it. ’ These little guys are crowded together, and eating is like a robbery.

  Zhao Zhitong was sitting next to the two cousins. Seeing that the little cousins ​​were crazily picking up meat, but the two cousins ​​only ate vegetables and steamed buns, he stood up and grabbed two pieces of meat and put them in the bowls of the two cousins.

A piece of meat suddenly appeared in the bowl, both Zhao Cheng and Zhao Yu were taken aback for a moment. Looking back, they saw a smiling and innocent face, calling sweetly: "Brother, eat meat quickly, or else you will have to eat meat." They were all snatched away by Sun Daqing."

  Zhao Yu was stunned, grinned, and put the meat into Zhao Zhitong's bowl: "Sister, you eat, I like to eat vegetables."

  Zhao Cheng also gave the meat to Zhao Zhitong.

  Zhao Zhitong was very unhappy, and pouted his mouth to ask them to take the meat away: "I don't like to eat this kind of meat, I like to eat chicken wings, I'll eat them for you, I'll grab the chicken wings."

   Then he put the meat back into their bowls domineeringly, and once again joined the army of meat clamps.

  The two brothers looked at the meat in the bowl, their eyes were red. They haven't had enough food for a long time, let alone meat.

  At this time, the hands holding the meat were shaking a little, and I put it in my mouth, chewing and chewing, but I couldn't bear to swallow it.

  …

  Because Zhao Dong is going to sell tofu in the county tomorrow, they are going to make tofu overnight. So, after eating, the eldest uncle and the second uncle sent all grandparents and a few radish heads home.

  The first aunt and the second aunt stayed, because they didn't have to go to the county the next day, so they stayed and cooked tofu with Sun Mei.

  Sun Mei packed out the bed in the west wing and spread it out for Zhao Cheng and Zhao Yue brothers to sleep in.

   After the meal was cooked, Sun Mei boiled a large pot of water and had a good meal, just in time for the two brothers to take a good bath.

  I washed it for Zhao Cheng first, his little face was tanned, and his neck was covered with mud behind his ears.

  Now, the dry tea that Zhao Dong bought is ready for use. Sun Mei pours the dry tea into the water basin, makes bubbles, and rubs Zhao Cheng's head for her.

  Zhao Cheng is ten years old this year, and he considers himself an older child. Now that Sun Mei is bathing him, his face is flushed with embarrassment, but his heart is warm.

  Second Aunt is very gentle, loves to laugh, speaks nicely, and even praises him for his good work.

  His mother wouldn't talk to him so patiently and gently like Second Aunt, thinking about it, her eyes turned red.

  He has no mother anymore...
