The pension plan of the ancient cannon fodder woman
Chapter 21 Giving Gifts
The five of them finished their meal quickly and went back to their rooms to wash up. Since Su He had cooked the meal, it was not her turn to wash the dishes. The village chief's eldest daughter-in-law was already washing dishes in the kitchen.
"Lotus, Dad said that you guys can use the hot water first and then go to bed early. We are not in a hurry."
Yang Xiangzhi was very enthusiastic about Hehua. She was the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief. She admired Su He for daring to separate from the family and live on her own with her younger brothers and sisters.
Everyone was very satisfied with today's dishes, especially the man and two sons in the family. They looked like they had never eaten meat in their entire lives. The broth from the braised pork ribs was eaten up by his youngest son with rice.
Yang Xiangzhi felt fortunate that only her family members were present, so she did not embarrass herself in front of outsiders.
Su He was not polite. Mu Tou was still sick, so Su He just asked him to wash himself and sent him to rest. But before he left, Su He secretly gave him some cold medicine. Mu Tou also trusted Su He and did whatever he was asked to do. As for Miao Miao, Su He held her inside and out and washed her from head to toe.
They took a shower in the kitchen. The hot water was in the pot and the stove was always burning. It would be warmer to take a shower by leaning against the side.
Xiao Miaomiao was very cooperative from beginning to end. The frostbite on her hands was so severe that the skin was broken, and it must have been painful when it touched water, but the little guy didn't say a word and let his sister arrange everything.
Su He felt extremely uncomfortable looking at the little guy in the bathtub, who was small in size and covered in frostbite.
There were only two sisters in the kitchen. Su He put a hair drying cap on Xiao Miaomiao. After washing and dressing him, Su He arranged for the little guy to warm himself by the stove. The hot water in the two large iron pots was used up, so Su He refilled them with water and continued to boil them. This was left for the village chief's family.
"Miaomiao, you stay here by the fire. I'll go get some gifts for the village chief and be back soon."
Miaomiao sat obediently on the small wooden stool, tilted her head back, looked at her sister and nodded, "Sister, please come back soon, Miaomiao will be waiting for you."
Su He kissed Xiao Miaomiao on the cheek and turned to leave.
She was going to give something substantial, brown sugar for sure. Although this unknown dynasty also had brown sugar, the quantity was limited and the price was not cheap. Even the village chief's family could not drink it whenever they wanted. The women in the village chief's family would definitely like it.
In addition to brown sugar, Su He plans to add a bag of dried red dates. The village chief's granddaughter-in-law is already pregnant, so these are just right.
There are also 3 pieces of cotton cloth, one piece of blue, one piece of plum red, and one piece of white. This is the best for making clothes for newborn babies. Su He bought them all in Huai Street this morning. The three colors are taken into consideration for both adults and children in the village chief's family. The plum red can also be used by the village chief's wife.
There were also gifts for the children, two boxes of cakes and two packages of candied fruits.
These were all economical and practical. Su He was worried that the village chief would not accept any more money. As for the money, Su He thought about it carefully and decided not to give it. She wanted to build a good relationship with the village chief's family. They were kind enough to let her stay overnight, which was the care of the elders for the younger ones. She couldn't bribe them with money at this time.
Su He carried a bunch of things and went to the village chief's house again. It happened that the village chief and his family were all there, and they were also talking about Su He's division of the family.
"Lotus, why are you carrying so many things?"
"Grandpa Village Chief, these red dates and brown sugar are for Grandma Wu, my aunt, and my sister-in-law. The cotton cloth can be used by everyone, and the cakes and candied fruits are for the children. I haven't been back for so many years. Su Che and Su Miao are in the village thanks to your care. Logically, I should buy some expensive things, but my ability is limited now. I will buy a pot of good wine for Grandpa Village Chief when I am stable in the future."
Su Bingyi frowned and opened his mouth to refuse.
"Lotus, you..."
"Lotus, we all know your intentions. These things are all useful. It's amazing that you can think so comprehensively at such a young age."
Mrs. Wu directly interrupted her old man. Her old man was good in everything except that he sometimes couldn't think straight.
These things are not silver or gold. Lotus took them out to feel at ease. Although the separation document has been signed, given the shameless attitude of that family, Lotus might still have something to ask of her old man.
Although this girl drew her sword against her family, she had her reasons. She was tricked by her father into selling her to someone else as a maid when she was young, and all the money she earned from selling her body was given to her family. Now she came back to share the family property with her brothers and sisters. Otherwise, with her current freedom, she would be no better than having two burdens wherever she goes.
For these reasons, Mrs. Wu felt that if this girl was in trouble, they would help her if they could.
"Lotus, go and rest early. If you haven't figured out what to do in the future, why not stay at our house for a while? The house you live in is usually empty. Our second and third children rarely come back, so it will be more lively if you three siblings come."
Mrs. Wu expressed her welcome with a smile. The eldest daughter-in-law, Yang Xiangzhi, who had the best understanding with her mother-in-law, nodded in agreement.
Wang Fenfen has gone back to her room to rest because she is pregnant.
"Yes, Hehua, you can stay a few more days. This family is full of men. Usually, there are only three women, me, mother-in-law, and Fenfen, to keep us company. It will be boring after a while."
Su He responded with a smile and felt relieved. If the village chief refused to accept it, she would insist on giving it to him. She felt awkward with this push and pull. Fortunately, Grandma Wu was there.
After everyone chatted for a while, Su He said goodbye. The little one in the kitchen was still waiting for her. Su He was afraid that Miaomiao would cry if she stayed away for too long, after all, she was only three years old.
Wang Fenfen's son was the smartest. He knew that the person who gave the gift could not open the gift, so when the person left, he immediately asked for some cakes.
"Grandpa, grandma, Tongtong wants to eat cakes. Tongtong is hungry."
"Nonsense, you're hungry right after dinner, you little brat? Didn't you eat well?" The speaker was Su Yuanting, the eldest of the third generation, with two uncles above him and two younger brothers below him. When his wife got pregnant, he prayed every day for a daughter, but it turned out to be a boy, and another bad boy.
He doesn't like brats, so he doesn't spoil his own son.
"Dinner is dinner. It's been almost half an hour. Why can't you eat? You were much greedier than Tongtong when you were a kid, you little brat."
The one who spoke was Wu, who couldn't stand her grandson being mean to her great-grandson. Yang Xiangzhi also rolled her eyes at her own son.
Su Yuanting glanced at his grandfather and father, but they didn't even look at him. He didn't have any helpers, so he could only keep his neck down and keep silent.
Tongtong hugged Wu proudly, "Grandma, Grandma, you guys eat."
Tongtong knows that great-grandmother is the most powerful person in the family, and when great-grandmother is not around, grandmother has the final say, so she knows how to please the two in the family.
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren took turns eating and enjoyed the meal very much.
