Chapter 81: Bean Paste Mooncake 4
It's just that other people's grandpas and grandmas, whenever there's something delicious, they'll save it for the kids to eat. Even if they're really biased towards boys over girls, at least they'd save it for their grandson, not like this where everyone's fighting over food.
However, Tian Biao is not Wu Yugui's biological son. This stepmother, Wu Yugui, can be seen as not being that great, at least she will care for Tian Meimei and Tian Jia Duan.
After dinner, Tian Xi and Tian Huan came over this way, and sat around the table that had just been cleared with Tian Lu and several others, giggling while holding in their hands mooncakes they hadn't yet opened.
"Brother said he wouldn't eat, so I and my sister each had half!" Tian Xi is Wen Hua's second grandson, Tian Fang's second son, eleven years old this year, also one year older than Tian Huan. However, boys are always more mischievous, just looking at him you can tell he doesn't have Tian Huan's sensible rebirth.
Tian Bang helped Li Shufen wash the dishes and walked out of the kitchen, smiling and intercepting a sentence, "Is Tian Xitang brother letting you two have it? I thought your brother really didn't like to eat?"
"Really? Then later, we'll also give some to brother, Jia Bao you eat one piece by yourself?" Tian Huan nodded in understanding. These kids, although they would fight over food normally, but Tian Xi and Tian Huan were many, as the older brothers, they would take care of the younger ones, and the younger ones would naturally think of the older ones too.
As soon as Tian Huan said that, Tian Xi quickly nodded and pulled Tian Huan to run back. Tian Jia Bao put the mooncake in front of his eyes, as if looking at something, and said, "I want to share it with Third Uncle Gong. Now Third Uncle Gong is our half-grandfather, he hasn't eaten any yet, I want to give him half."
Tian Wei's water-splashing action stopped abruptly, oh no, she had forgotten about Third Uncle!
"Our family's treasure is really sensible, my sister has already forgotten about Third Uncle, but our treasure still remembers! He's so great!" Yeah, with a brother like that who's so sensible, how can it not be great?
Li Shufen came out of the kitchen behind Tian Yuan, listened and smiled with a curved eyebrow. "Yes, Jia Bao is really sensible. My husband and I also forgot about San Shu Gong for a while. These days, your San Shu Gong has been busy going out early in the morning and only coming back when the sun sets. We haven't seen him for a few days, so we really forgot. Let's go talk to San Shu Gong later and invite him to dinner at our place tomorrow night. After working all day, he must be tired, so let's not make him cook himself."
"Good." Tian Wei responded, then instructed Tian Lu to make an extra portion of rice for tomorrow's meal, and took Tian Jia Bao to the house where Third Uncle lived.
In the countryside, there was no TV or radio at that time. After a busy day, people would often sit under the trees in the yard and chat after dinner. Some went to bed as early as 7:00 pm, while others stayed up until 8:00 or 9:00 pm before going to sleep. Then they had to get up early the next morning to cook, raise pigs, chickens, and ducks, and go up the mountain to work on farm chores.
When the two found Third Uncle, he was sitting under a tree chatting with Tian Xi and his siblings, still talking about those battles.
"Third Uncle is telling stories, and he's not calling us three siblings!" Tian Juan joked as she walked over. Tian Jia Bao let go of Tian Juan's hand and ran to Third Uncle, burrowing into the old man's arms. "Third Uncle, I'm here to share with you the bean paste mooncake that sister's friend gave us! We'll each have half. If Third Uncle likes it, when sister grows up and earns money, she'll buy more for you!"
"Third Uncle is getting old and doesn't like sweet things, you can have it yourself~" Tian Mao Xing laughed happily, hugging Tian Jia Bao, "In the future when Jia Bao grows up, will you buy delicious food for Daddy, Mommy, and also for your sister?"
"I know!" Tian Jia Bao lowered his head and tore open the plastic packaging of the mooncake, muttering to himself, "Sister said, adults say don't eat, it's all because they can't bear to eat, so I'll have to share half with Third Uncle!"
"Yes, my brother didn't want to eat and said he wouldn't eat, but my sister and I still shared one bite with him." Tian Xi smiled triumphantly, "We're all so obedient!"
In an instant, Tian Maohang burst out laughing, but unexpectedly, Tian Jiaobao quickly unwrapped the package, split it in half and directly stuffed one half into Tian Maohang's mouth that was still smiling.
