He Tiantian stuffed the straw into the stove hole and picked up the matchbox on the stove.

Crack!

Small flames danced on the matchsticks.

He Tiantian threw the match in, and the dried straw was instantly ignited.

Then, He Tiantian stuffed a few more branches.

After lighting the fire, she took a spoonful of water from the bucket and cleaned the cauldron.

By this time, the fire in the stove was already burning very brightly.

He Tiantian waited for the water in the big pot to dry, and then dug a spoonful of lard into it.

It has to be said that Mrs. Qiu's life seems simple, but in fact she has no shortage of things at home.

Also, there are three martyrs in the family, various pensions and subsidies, as well as care from the county and village.

The old lady's family background is definitely one of the best in Sujia Village, and even in the entire advancing brigade.

Over the years, there have been clan members who have been licking their faces to adopt their children to Mrs. Qiu.

In addition to the nice names mentioned on the surface, money and the legacy left by the three martyrs are what those people are most concerned about.

Mrs. Qiu is so withdrawn and weird because she wants to scare away some people with ulterior motives.

In her heart, she longed for a family.

"Stab it!"

When the oil was hot, He Tiantian poured the beaten egg liquid into the pot.

When heated by the hot oil, the aroma of eggs and green onions instantly fills the entire kitchen.

Gudong!

Su Guoqiang swallowed and spit.

Well, he is either greedy or hungry.

He ran back and forth to the county seat twice today, dragging a girl weighing more than 80 pounds with him. He was already tired and hungry.

When he arrived at Mrs. Qiu's house, Su Guoqiang was so respectful and afraid of the third aunt that he didn't even dare to ask for words.

After sitting for more than an hour, his throat became dry and his stomach felt weak.

At this moment, he smelled the aroma of fried green onions and eggs, and his mouth secreted fluid desperately.

Not to mention Su Guoqiang, even Mrs. Qiu couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

fragrant!

It smells so good!

It’s not that the old lady doesn’t have eggs at home, it’s that she is alone and has no thought or energy to eat.

For her, as long as she can eat, it's okay as long as she's not hungry.

She really doesn't care whether it's good or not, whether it smells good or not.

In the past, the old lady felt that she had had enough life and waited patiently for her relatives to pick her up.

Now, the old lady's taste buds were awakened, and she suddenly felt something she had never felt before - her life seemed to be heading towards the right direction!

After frying the eggs, He Tiantian stewed the chicken.

She does not have the blessing of "Huang Rong's cooking skills", but in reality, she also cooks by herself when she is on the island.

My cooking skills aren't great, but they aren't bad either.

She still has no problem with home-cooked food.

Of course, the main reason is that He Tiantian is willing to put in the ingredients.

The old lady's house is fully furnished and not locked at all.

The lard is sautéed until fragrant, and all the anise, peppercorns, cinnamon, and dried chili peppers are put in it.

Not long after, the overwhelming aroma of stewed chicken came from the kitchen.

After simmering for half an hour, He Tiantian stuck a few corn tortillas on the edge of the big pot.

Soon, the fragrance of cornmeal also spread out.

Suck!

Su Guoqiang couldn't help himself again.

Mrs. Qiu's eyes also began to light up.

He Tiantian neatly moved the small wooden table to the yard and brought three small stools.

The dishes and chopsticks were set out, and the food was served one by one.

Mrs. Qiu stood up directly and moved her little feet to the table.

Oops!

Quite rich.

A plate of scrambled eggs with green onions, the eggs are clear yolk, the green onions are tender and white, the key is the aroma, it is so tempting.

A small pot of stewed chicken nuggets with potatoes, shiny chicken, and stewed potatoes until soft.

There are also golden corn pancakes in small baskets, with a wisp of heat and a sweet smell.

Mrs. Qiu was already a little moved, but she still kept a straight face and snorted coldly: "Use my lard, my firewood, my iron pot..."

Before Mrs. Qiu could finish her words, He Tiantian stretched out her hand in front of the old man.

Her white and tender palms were spread out, revealing two gold earrings.

Mrs. Qiu:......

What's the meaning?

Her face looked a little unsightly.

Although she doesn't want to be taken advantage of, she won't take advantage of others either.

A little lard, firewood, etc. are worthless.

But the gold earrings in this little girl's hands look thick and of good quality.

Take it to the county and sell it for tens of dollars at least.

This girl, just give it to her?

"Grandma, my master has left, and I am left alone. You are also alone, let's live together."

"It's either acknowledgment or I'll lend you a room and a stove."

"You don't have to worry about what I'm planning for you. I can hunt and collect herbs. I can always support myself!"

"These two gold earrings were left to me by my master. I know what he meant. He was afraid that I would not be able to find a place to go down the mountain, so he gave me these!"

"I'm not giving it to you just for this meal, but for renting a house. I'm young, so you can take care of me and give me half a year's worth of rent, okay?"

At the end, He Tiantian deliberately showed her coquettish look.

She was already soft and soft, but even the famous old lady in Sujia Village couldn't stand her coquettish behavior.

Mrs. Qiu waved her hands in disgust, "Okay, okay, don't do this to me!"

Su Guoqiang watched two women, one old and one young, "confronting" each other.

I don't know why, but there is a sense of harmony.

It seemed that the two people in front of me were not a landlord and a tenant, but a stern grandma and a cute little granddaughter.

In fact, it was not just Su Guoqiang who had such an illusion.

Even Mrs. Qiu is becoming more and more pleased with He Tiantian.

As a human being, we instinctively feel close to people who look somewhat similar to us.

In addition, this girl is really sensible. Listen to what others say——

It’s not acknowledgment!

It's just two lonely people who got together to make a gang.

He took out the only valuable thing he had on him.

This kind of behavior is much better than those cheap relatives who come to "recognize grandma" with their children.

And, most importantly, the little girl proved one thing with her actual actions.

People can eat meat on their own!

"...Huh, seeing as you are quite smart, I will accept you as my tenant."

"As for the rent and so on, it's all as you say. I'll accept these gold earrings."

"You don't need to do any work at home. The village takes care of me. Someone helps me carry water and chop wood every day."

"However, since you want to borrow my kitchen to cook, you can't shirk-"

Mrs. Qiu still had a straight face and said angrily.

He Tiantian saw that the old man had softened his heart.

She, it's because she feels awkward.

Old children, old children, these words are indeed true.

Of course, whether they are children or old people, their eyes are the brightest.

Only by being sincere can we regain our sincerity.
