"Grandson, just let your uncle and his children take care of themselves. How much money did you waste by buying so much cloth?"

Grandma feels sorry for her eldest grandson. After all, his family has lost its father and he has to support his younger brothers and sisters. Although she wants to help, the problem is that she and her husband are old and cannot do anything about it.

It would be the best if I could avoid causing trouble for my eldest grandson.

"Grandma, your eldest grandson is making money now, so what's wrong with me buying something for my grandma and grandpa? Please don't say that. Besides, my second uncle and second aunt have helped our family a lot in the past few years, so it's nothing to give them these little gifts!"

Zhou Tian comforted his grandmother. He knew that his grandmother felt sorry for him, but his family's situation had improved a lot now, and he didn't think it was a big deal to be able to help his relatives.

"Okay, old lady, since the eldest grandson has said so, then let him stay. At lunchtime, ask the second son's family to take the fabric back and make some new clothes for the grandsons and granddaughters!"

The grandfather listened to his eldest grandson's words and spoke at the right time. After all, his eldest grandson had already bought it, and he couldn't return it. Besides, it was irreversible.

"Yes! Grandma, look how reasonable Grandpa is! Okay, grandma, look what else I bought for you?"

When Zhou Tian heard his grandfather coming out to help, he immediately changed the subject, took the net bag from the handlebars of the bicycle, and handed it to his grandmother to show off.

“Is this powdered milk?”

Before grandma could say anything, grandpa walked forward and said in surprise as he looked at the milk powder in his pocket.

"milk powder?"

Grandma was also shocked, but then she slapped Zhou Tian's arm a few more times, feeling a little amused and helpless.

"Kid, why did you buy such expensive things?"

Although grandma didn't know how much milk powder cost, she had heard about it from others and knew that milk powder was a luxury item and many rich people were reluctant to buy it.

"Grandma, I bought the milk powder for your grandpa and you. It's very good for your health, you must drink it!"

As he said this, he took the milk powder into the house, regardless of his grandmother's objection. He took out five bowls, opened one of the cans of milk powder, and scooped two spoonfuls of milk powder into each bowl.

"Oh, grandson, you can't waste things like this!"

Grandma and grandpa walked in from outside, and when they saw Zhou Tian’s actions, grandma immediately stopped him.

"It's okay, grandma, I've already put it away for you!"

Zhou Tianbian said as he picked up the kettle and poured water into five bowls.

At this time, the third child, who was lying on the kang, heard what grandma said, looked at his eldest brother, put on his shoes, got off the bed, and came to his eldest brother.

The second brother Zhou Hao couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he saw his eldest brother making milk powder.

The third brother and the little sister watched their eldest brother's actions, smelled the milky fragrance, and couldn't help swallowing.

"Brother, what are you brewing? Why does it smell so good?"

The third brother Zhou Yu couldn't help but ask, and his nose twitched as he spoke.

"What else could it be? Milk powder!"

The second brother Zhou Hao looked speechlessly at his third brother who loved eating, then looked at his little sister. He felt helpless and he didn't know what to say to his eldest brother.

My eldest brother wouldn't listen even if I told him. He would listen even less if I didn't tell him. Now he is eighteen years old and is almost old enough to find a wife. He is about to give up.

"Okay little greedy guys, Xiaoyu, go call your brother Jun and the others!"

Zhou Tian stirred the bowl with a spoon, ignoring the distressed looks of his second brother and grandmother, and said to Zhou Yu. Because he knew that if he couldn't make the milk powder for them, according to the temperament of grandpa and grandma, they might not be willing to drink it.

"Okay, got it, big brother!"

Zhou Yu said this and ran out in a flash.

"Xiaoyu, slow down!"

Grandma watched Zhou Yu running fast and couldn't help but shouted out worriedly.

"Got it, grandma!"

Zhou Yu responded and ran out of the yard in a blink of an eye.

"Xiaoting, smell it, is it fragrant?"

After stirring, Zhou Tian placed the bowl full of milk aroma in front of Zhou Ting, shook it, with a teasing look in his eyes.

After hearing what her elder brother said and smelling the aroma of milk so close to her, Zhou Ting couldn't help but nodded.

"It smells so good, brother!"

"You big grandson, why are you teasing my granddaughter?"

The grandmother standing by couldn't stand it anymore, so she stepped forward and slapped Zhou Tian on the back, snatched the bowl from his hand, and handed it to Zhou Ting, saying, "Come here, my dear granddaughter, I've got it for you, come and drink!"

Zhou Ting listened to her grandmother's words, but turned her head to look at her eldest brother. When she saw her eldest brother smiled and nodded, she took the bowl and started drinking in small sips.

Feeling the sweet taste of milk powder in her mouth, the rich milky aroma made her want to scream with joy. Her pair of small black and white eyes narrowed slightly, just like a kitten.

"Second brother, here, this is yours!"

Zhou Tian looked at his younger sister's happy face, smiled, and then gave each of the remaining four bowls a bowl.

But when I gave it to my grandmother, she refused, saying, "Grandson, you and your brothers and sisters can drink it. Your grandfather and I won't drink it. You are growing up and need nutrition. Your grandfather and I are already buried. It would be a waste to drink this!"

"Grandma, what are you talking about? I'm still waiting for you and grandpa to bring me great-grandchildren in the future. How can you not take care of yourself? Don't worry, our lives will get better and better in the future. You and grandpa can just wait to enjoy the good life!"

Zhou Tian said as he forcibly handed the bowl to grandma, and then handed the last bowl to grandpa. Grandpa didn't say anything, but took the bowl and drank from it in small sips.

But the love in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Tian seemed to be overflowing.

"Brother, we are here!"

Just then, several shouts came from outside. Except for Zhou Yu, three boys and two girls all ran into the house quickly.

They surrounded Zhou Tian and shouted happily.

"Xiaojun, Xiaomin, Xiaohu, Daya, Xiaoya, you came just in time. Big brother will make you some milk powder!"

Looking at his younger brothers and two younger sisters, he smiled and talked, and started a new round of making milk powder.

Soon, another five bowls of milk powder were ready, and Zhou Tian gave them to his younger brothers and sisters, one bowl of milk powder each.

After receiving the milk powder, the children looked at their grandmother. Grandma looked at her eldest grandson helplessly and said, "Okay, stop looking at me. Drink it. This is what your eldest brother gave you. You must remember your eldest brother's kindness! Got it?"

"Got it, grandma!"

The children responded one after another and picked up their bowls to drink.

Xiaojun and Xiaomin drank only a few sips, then stopped and handed the bowl to Zhou Tian.

"Brother, can we leave the rest to my father and mother?"

Xiaojun and Xiaomin looked at Zhou Tian and asked.
