Chapter 90 The Three Brothers Beaten

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Dong Nuan picked two of the things Hanjianglou bought to eat on the way home, and asked him to take the rest back.

If you take all this stuff back home, you still don’t know whose mouth it went into.

Both of them understood this fact, so they didn't take the winter warmers and Hanjiang Tower didn't persuade them either.

When Dong Nuan returned, Dong Sanchun and Uncle Dong were still there practicing weaving fish baskets.

It's been raining these past few days, so it's hard to go into the mountains to collect willow sticks, and the basket weaving progress isn't very good either.

But I have old wicker sticks at home, so I can weave them, take them apart, and then weave them again, so I can practice slowly.

Anyway, if you just start learning, you will definitely not be able to get it right, and you won’t be able to read the knitted things, so you might as well make more use of the wicker.

"Dad, uncle, where is the editor?" Dong Nuan entered the yard, greeted the two people with a smile, and then entered the main room.

Dong Yao and the others thought that since Dong Nuan didn't come back today, Old Man Dong wouldn't check their homework without her endorsement.

The three of them were originally planning to run out to play, but it was too hot outside and they felt like they would melt away if they stood for a while.

Therefore, the three of them hesitated at the back door for a long time, and finally did not dare to step out of the house.

Then, they waited for Dong Nuan’s devil-like voice: “Master, are you going to start endorsing me?”

This voice sounded like a smile, but to the three of them, it was equivalent to blowing the horn of being beaten, and no one wanted to hear it anyway.

The three of them wanted to run, but Dong Nuan had already spoken. If they dared to run, Old Man Dong would probably pick up his pole and chase them all over the village.

The three people turned their heads in agony and looked at Old Man Dong with an aggrieved look, trying to show their pity by asking him to let them go.

It's a pity that Old Man Dong is still angry, or he finally realized that money cannot be wasted.

Since he has paid for the education of his three children, he has to know from time to time how they are doing.

It happened that a smart winter heater appeared at home, which made it easier for him to check every day.

Now when Dong Nuan asked, Old Man Dong nodded solemnly.

"Dongchang, bring your brothers here." After Old Man Dong nodded, he turned to look at the three brothers huddled together at the back door.

Dongchang:?

Mother, why is it my turn to be the villain?

Dongchang flattened his mouth and honestly pulled Dongshi and Dongyao over.

The three brothers stood there while being beaten, listening to the warmth of winter and successfully recited the six sentences.

After three days of severe beatings, the three brothers finally made progress.

At least, everyone can memorize the first six sentences very skillfully.

Beat him twice a day. If you don't know how to do it again, you may be beaten to death.

After finishing the first six sentences, Dong Nuan memorized another six sentences.

These six sentences were a bit difficult for the three of us, but they memorized them even though they struggled.

After six more sentences, it starts to get uneven.

Dongchang has a sharp mind and a good memory, so he memorized it with difficulty. Dongyao is stared at by Dongnuan every day. If he dares to lose focus in class every day, he will receive Dongnuan's death stare.

So, after struggling for a long time, he managed to memorize it.

In the remaining winter, the second aunt continued to supervise her every day, but she was powerless.

The second aunt is illiterate, so even if she wanted to give her guidance, there would be no place to start.

The most I can do is pick up the stick and let Dongshi work hard on his own.

Winter time:?

How the hell am I trying so hard?

Then, the first one to be beaten today became winter time.

After that, every brother couldn't escape. At noon, Dong Erzhuang's house was full of chickens and dogs, ghosts crying and wolves howling, but everyone was used to it.

In other words, who doesn’t spank their children?

Anyway, I am idle, and my skin will become stronger and longer even if I beat it.

I just felt sorry for Liao's mother next door. Her health had rarely improved recently. The main reason was that she didn't want to drag down Liao Mingkun, so she took a deep breath and got much better.

On a hot day, she was so anxious that she couldn't sleep well at noon. As a result, the children next door were always beating her. Mother Liao was angry, but because of her shame, she couldn't come to her door, so she could only sulk at home.

The endorsement time at noon was not long, it was almost done. After a long lesson, Old Man Dong stopped, and then signaled the whole family to get started and follow Dong Nuan in weaving baskets.

"It's been hard to work in the fields these past two days. Every one of them has been idle as if they were lazy. Work hard!" Old Man Dong took a fire stick and pointed there, and then he honestly followed suit.

Old Man Dong is no exception.

After all, this is a craft, and it is only true if you learn it yourself.

No matter how young I am, I still want to learn something. If I can sell it for three to five cents at a big market, that would be great.

That’s right, it’s not easy to get started at first.

This thing requires the right strength and fine craftsmanship, and the whole family must work together. Even the aunt who claims to be the most skillful with her hands can still make it out of shape after two days of working on it.

Dong Nuan's teachings are already considerate enough, but they only need to teach them step by step, so they dare not say that Dong Nuan's teachings are not good.

Seeing how clumsy these people were, Mrs. Dong was so angry that she couldn't help but roll her eyes. But she was also one of the stupid ones, and she was too embarrassed to yell and curse, so in the end she could only endure it.

Because I was holding back my anger, by noon the next day, the fish baskets made by Old Man Dong were ready.

At least it's like that. If you get it in a big collection, you won't be laughed at. This kind of thing is still embarrassing to sell.

The three Dong brothers had to learn how to weave baskets after being beaten every day.

Don’t want to learn?

The stick in Old Man Dong’s hand is hard again!

In Old Man Dong's opinion, how dare some Bai Jiao not learn this excellent craft?

Old man Dong won't let the girls in the family learn, for fear that they would marry into their husband's family and bring their skills with them.

If a boy has this opportunity, how dare he not learn?

Looking for a fight!

Then the three brothers who didn't want to learn were beaten a lot, and then they followed and learned honestly.

It was the second day after Hanjiang Tower came back that he realized that Dong Nuan had almost been pushed into the ditch by those shameless brats from the Dong family during the past few days.

Originally this was a family matter and no one else knew about it.

But the problem is that Dongchang and the others were rescued by others, and Dongchang was talking nonsense at the time, so others knew about it.

There were also people who came to ask Old Man Dong and the others when they had nothing to do. Old Man Dong had a dark face and refused to say anything, but Dong Nuan stood aside and told the story with a smile.

Old Man Dong doesn't like his family's scandal to be publicized, but Dong Nuan doesn't want to be misunderstood by others, so he clarifies when it's time to clarify.

As for Dongchang and the others, who has their bad reputation?

Because Dong Nuan's explanation had both nose and eyes, the villagers still believed it.

Hanjianglou asked Grandma, the patriarch of the Dong clan, to help Dong Nuan make new clothes using the newly purchased floral cloth.

The other party had just made a linen dress for Dong Nuan. He had the measurements in hand and asked her for the best fit.

Of course, it wasn't for nothing, Hanjianglou brought over a newly shot pheasant.

Of course the other party was embarrassed to ask for it, so he pretended to refuse it for a while and then accepted it.
