Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

She gently opened the wrapping paper and took a small bite. It still tasted the same, fragrant and sweet, so sweet that she wanted to eat it bite by bite.

She smiled, and the dimples on both sides of her mouth were clearly visible. Her eyes seemed to be sparkling, like stars in the night sky. This was her smile that came from the heart.

This was the first time that An Nian and Anyue had been so happy since their parents passed away. An Nian sat on a stool and ate some peony candy.

Seeing her brother enjoying the meal so much, An Yue decided to put away her own candied peony.

This peony sugar may not be considered delicious in the eyes of modern people, but in this age of hunger, it is a good thing.

A portion of peony candy costs five cents, and most families would only buy it for their children to taste during the Chinese New Year.

She carefully wrapped up the peony sugar again, as if she was wrapping some expensive treasure, wrapping it layer by layer.

She saved her portion to give to her brother another day.

An Yue thought about what happened not long ago when she had just traveled here and her grandmother Zhou wanted to beat her. At that time, only her younger brother was trying his best to protect her. From then on, she decided to protect her younger brother. But now there is not much she can give her younger brother, only the peony in her hand.

After putting away the peony sugar, An Yue went to the kitchen to help.

At this time, the grandmother and grandfather sitting on the stools looked at An Nian as if they were watching a kitten eating fish. He took the peony sugar and licked it, and they couldn't help laughing.

Grandma said lovingly, "What a little glutton."

"Grandma, please try some. The peony candy my uncle bought is delicious!" After saying that, An Nian took the peony candy and went to his grandmother, ready to feed her.

Grandma smiled and waved her hands, saying, "Grandma doesn't like to eat peony candy, so eat it every year!"

Seeing that his grandmother didn't eat it, An Nian put it back into his own mouth.

As soon as he put it in his mouth, An Nian suddenly covered his mouth and burst into tears.

When the grandmother saw An Nian crying for no reason, she quickly stood up and asked worriedly, "Niannian, what happened? Tell grandma quickly."

An Nian was still crying: "Wuwu..." Everyone was very worried.

It wasn't until An Nian took his hand away from his mouth and found blood in his mouth that everyone was shocked.

Uncle Jiang Chenghai quickly wiped the blood from the corner of An Nian's mouth and asked, "Did you bite your tongue?"

"Wuwu...Uncle, my teeth..."

After An Nian finished speaking while crying, he took out a piece of peony candy from his mouth, on which was a tooth.

Everyone then realized that An Nian's incisor teeth had been stuck to it by Shaotang.

An Nian cried and asked, "Wuwu...Grandma, Nian Nian's teeth fell out. Will she die?"

After hearing what An Nian said, everyone laughed.

The harder An Nian cried, the more exaggerated his uncle laughed. He laughed loudly and said, "Haha... He will die."

When An Nian heard that she was going to die, she cried even louder.

My uncle laughed again and said, "Niannian looks like a little old man who has lost his teeth, haha... little old man..."

The grandmother glared at her son Jiang Chenghai and scolded him, saying, "Ah Hai! How old are you? And you're still messing around! Look how scared you are to the child!"

The grandfather smoked a pipe, stared blankly at his son Jiang Chenghai and said, "Still laughing at others! When you lost your first tooth as a child, you cried louder than Nian Nian."

Jiang Chenghai stopped laughing at this time, and vehemently denied it, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I'm not a crybaby like him!"

Grandmother hugged An Nian and said gently, "Niannian, don't listen to your uncle's nonsense! He is making fun of you. In fact, your uncle cried much more than you when he was a child."

After hearing what his grandmother said, An Nian suddenly laughed, made faces at his uncle, and stuck out his tongue: "Uncle, slug, lululu..."

Grandma gently stroked An Nian's back and continued, "Everyone loses teeth when they are your age. Don't be afraid, An Nian. New teeth will grow back after a while."

When An Nian heard his grandmother say this, he vaguely remembered that his sister seemed to have lost a tooth before.

So he picked up the peony candy again and continued eating it.

This time, you don't need to bite it with your teeth. Instead, lick it slowly with your tongue.

Jiang Chenghai looked at his little nephew and told him not to cry, but tears were still in his eyes. He started eating peony candy again. He couldn't help but teasing An Nian again.

He rubbed An Nian's chubby face and said, "Slug Nian Nian, you like to eat peony candy. When your uncle goes to work, he will buy more peony candy and stick all your teeth off. Haha..."

"Hmph! Bad uncle!" An Nian lowered his head, licked a piece of peony, and muttered softly.

"Pfft...hahahaha...look at that stingy look." Jiang Chenghai was so amused when he saw An Nian's angry look.

At this time, Wei, who was cooking in the kitchen, happened to be carrying the dishes into the main room.

Wei had heard what her husband said outside the door. She entered the room and saw An Nian eating peony candy. She turned to her husband Jiang Chenghai and asked, "Husband, did you make a fortune today?"

"No, no, the same as usual, eighty cents."

Jiang Chenghai didn't notice anything wrong in the words. He just smiled foolishly and took out money from his pocket, ready to show Wei the money he had earned.

Wei didn't say anything else, but glanced at Jiang Chenghai and turned back to the kitchen.

Jiang Chenghai was very confused. He clearly earned money from work and brought it home. His wife should be happy to see it, so why was she rolling her eyes?

Seeing her son's puzzled expression, Zheng called her son Jiang Chenghai to come over to her and said, "Ah Hai, what's wrong with your wife these days? She's been acting weird at home."

As usual, Jiang Chenghai handed the money he earned from work to his mother Zheng.

He lowered his head and asked in a low voice: "Mom, why do you say that?"

"Your wife is at home today, and she's giving your father and me the cold shoulder."

Jiang Chenghai said in disbelief: "Mom, this is impossible! Wan'er has always been gentle and virtuous. Is there some misunderstanding here?"

"If you don't believe me, ask your father! Your father was there too."

"Dad, is what Mom said true?"

"This child has tortured me as a mother, can I still wrongly accuse her?"

"Oh, that's enough, you old woman are always troublesome! The young couple still have to live their life in the future, can't you be more tolerant?" Jiang Wuwen said impatiently while smoking a pipe.

Jiang Wuwen didn't want to bring the matter to light, so he pretended to be confused.

Jiang Chenghai scratched the back of his head. Seeing that his father didn't say anything, he walked to his father in confusion and sat down to eat.

At this time, Wei and An Yue came to the main house from the kitchen carrying sweet potatoes and corn porridge.

As soon as An Yue arrived at the main house, An Nian ran over and took his sister to see his teeth.

An Yue looked at it, smiled and said to An Nian: "We grow up every year and start to change our teeth!"

The dishes were served quickly. Although the food was ordinary, the family ate around the table happily, and the food seemed to taste better.
