The Beautiful Teaching Assistant Gave Me Three Children, Shocking the Entire School-Chapter 325 Spending Money to Suffer
Chapter 325: Chapter 325 Spending Money to Suffer
Under the guidance of Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin, the three little ones curiously ventured into the farmhouse.
As soon as she saw the babies, a look of affection flashed across the old lady’s face.
The elderly are especially fond of children, especially ones as adorable as these babies.
At first sight, she truly found them dearly lovable.
"Such adorable little ones! Are they your children?"
"Yes, grandma, they are triplets."
"Babies, aren’t you going to greet her?"
Tang Yuxin replied with a smile to the old lady, then spoke to the babies.
The babies immediately bowed obediently to the old lady, "Hello, Grandma~"
"Oh~ good children, good children."
The old lady was even more joyful, a smile spreading uncontrollably over her wrinkled face.
"There aren’t many people at home, just me and the old man; the children are all working outside."
"The old man’s health isn’t good, he’s already gone to bed."
As she led the family inside, the old lady began talking about the home’s situation.
"By the way, have you had dinner yet?"
"Not yet."
Xiao Fei laughed.
He winked at the old lady, "Do you have something to eat, grandma?"
"Yes, yes, but it’s all simple food, don’t be too picky."
Saying this, the old lady shook her head and walked towards the kitchen.
As she walked, she silently muttered to herself.
What adorable children, how could the parents bear to let them experience hardship?
They even spent money to let them experience hardship.
But, after all, it’s other people’s family affairs.
It’s not appropriate for her as an outsider to say anything.
Besides, they were so generous; they gave quite a bit of money in advance, even more than what her son and daughter-in-law earn in a year working outside.
Meanwhile, the babies looked around the farmhouse with curiosity.
A very traditional farmhouse courtyard; after entering the front door, there was a small courtyard with a tree, and in the distance, a local dog was tied up.
There was a main room for hosting and dining.
The bedroom on the left side of the main room seemed to belong to the elderly couple.
On the right side, there was another bedroom, which would be where Xiao Fei’s family would sleep tonight.
Besides that, there was a very ordinary kitchen.
Surprisingly, the kitchen still had a traditional wood-burning stove...
Such stoves are quite rare nowadays.
The children found everything new and interesting; it was their first time seeing such a farmhouse courtyard and completely couldn’t understand the austerity of living in such a place.
Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin exchanged a smile, seeing their three little curious angels.
Just wait, you’ll have quite an experience.
Soon, the old lady brought out some dishes.
All very simple farmhouse dishes: a plate of stir-fried corn, a plate of greens, a plate of cured meat, plus white rice for lunch.
"Come, babies, time to eat." freёnovelkiss.com
Xiao Fei held the babies and seated them on the bench.
Looking at the food in front of them, the children hesitated a bit.
They were used to Xiao Fei’s cooking. Ever since Xiao Fei got injured, when Tang Yuxin and Tang’s mother cooked, they already felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Now eating even more ordinary farmhouse food, they felt a bit reluctant to dig in.
"What’s wrong?"
Xiao Fei asked the three babies with a smile.
The children exchanged looks, and in the end, they lowered their heads and started eating.
After a few bites, the little ones didn’t really want to continue.
"Are you full?"
Tang Yuxin asked, pretending not to know.
The eldest hesitated, then shook his head.
The second pouted, "Daddy, can you cook?"
The third looked at Xiao Fei with hopeful eyes.
Xiao Fei tugged at the corner of his mouth and then shook his head.
"No, this is someone else’s home. We only have these things to eat."
Xiao Fei pointed to the food in front of them.
This was something he specifically instructed the old lady to prepare...
Otherwise, with the money Xiao Fei gave earlier, the old lady might have prepared a lot of fish and meat.
Hearing Xiao Fei’s words, the children pouted with grievance.
"If you don’t eat, you’ll have nothing to eat if you’re hungry tonight."
The little ones had never experienced hunger before and didn’t know what it felt like to have nothing to eat.
Although Xiao Fei said so, the children still weren’t too concerned.
They didn’t want to eat.
Xiao Fei didn’t say anything more and also glared at Tang Yuxin, signaling her to stay silent as well.
For now, the couple ate quietly and then took the white rice from the children’s bowls and ate it.
"No wastage, didn’t Daddy teach you before?"
"Sorry, Daddy..."
The children quickly apologized.
After dinner, Xiao Fei stopped the old lady and, along with Tang Yuxin, took the dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen with the babies.
In the dim light, the couple washed the dishes and chopsticks.
Although they paid for staying, the babies didn’t know, so Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin had to act like they were genuinely staying over at someone else’s home.
"Daddy, this thing is weird!"
The third pointed at the wood-burning stove, curiously poking around the fire-feeding hole.
This type of stove had two large pots on one side, and a hole on the other side; when cooking, one person operated on one side, while another added wood to the fire on the other side.
The space for adding wood was piled with various cut and prepared dry firewood.
"This is for cooking, it’s called wood. You light the wood and put it in to make a fire, then cook in that big pot."
After washing the dishes, Tang Yuxin explained to the children.
"Do you have to make the fire yourself when cooking?"
"Isn’t it usually just a twist, and poof, there’s fire?"
The second thought of the stove at home, feeling confused.
"Second, if you’re interested, how about you add the wood and make a fire tomorrow while cooking?"
"Okay, okay!"
The second clapped her hands joyfully, looking excited.
She treated it as a game.
The first and third were also eager, clearly wanting to add wood to the fire.
"Alright, it’s getting late, let’s go to sleep."
Xiao Fei clapped his hands and led the family out of the kitchen.
The old lady had already laid out the bedding for them; Xiao Fei thanked her and then brought Tang Yuxin and the family into the bedroom.
Once inside, Tang Yuxin felt okay, but the children immediately frowned.
The conditions here were poor.
The floor was not tiled, not even cemented, just bare earth.
Aside from a wooden table and a wooden cabinet, there was only a wooden bed in the room.
No air conditioning, no television.
The only electrical item was a light bulb hanging haphazardly from the bed.
Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin undressed the children and put them on the bed.
Even with two layers of quilts, the wooden bed was hard and couldn’t compare to the one at home.
The children sat on it uncomfortably.
"Daddy, it’s so hard..."
The second pouted her cute brows.
The third found it uncomfortable lying down and kept twisting and turning.
Though the eldest didn’t react much, his face looked pitiful.
"Why is the bed here so hard?"
The third asked.
Xiao Fei touched her head and sighed.
"Because, grandma doesn’t have much money to buy a comfortable bed."
"Huh?"
The children tilted their heads.
It was their first encounter with the concept of "not having money."
