Chapter 477 Psychological gap

"Auntie, why are there still rice seedlings planting now?" Tang Xiaochuan asked Aunt Liao while sitting in the main room.

Aunt Liao smiled and said, "The rice here is planted for two seasons, early rice and late rice. Now it is late July. After harvesting early rice, I have to plough the fields and plant late rice immediately. In the past, it was called double-grabbing, harvesting and planting!"

Tang Xiaochuan nodded: "Our family used to plant two seasons, but now we only plant medium rice for one season. Before planting medium rice, we cultivated crayfish. The yield of crayfish is high and the price is good, it is much better than planting rice for two seasons!"

The village party secretary couldn't help asking, "Mr. Tang's family is also from the countryside?"

"Yes, I planted seedlings for a few years when I was a child. Later, we developed a method of scattering grain seeds. We soaked the grain seeds in water for two days, wait for the grain seeds to germinate about one centimeter long, and then scattered the germinated grain seeds into the already sorted paddy fields. This method is much more convenient to plant rice, reducing working hours!"

Speaking of this, Tang Xiaochuan asked, "Auntie, you are so old, why are you still going out to plant rice for people? The weather is too hot now, and most people really can't stand it."

Aunt Liao sighed: "It's not okay if you don't do it. You can make a lot of money. If you can do it now, you can do it for a few years. In a few years, you can't do it, and you can't do it even if you want to do it!"

"Did your daughter not give you living expenses every month?" Tang Xiaochuan asked.

Aunt Liao sighed: "She also has her difficulties. There are two old people at home and two young people at home. However, if there is any delicious food at home, I often bring some for me!"

Guan Jingwen couldn't help asking: "Auntie, how much does it cost to plant rice for people every day?"

"170 yuan a day, and I'll be responsible for two meals for lunch and evening," said Aunt Liao.

Secretary Fan also echoed: "The daily wage for people planting rice seedlings here is basically 170-180 yuan a day!"

At this time, a woman came in outside, which was Liao Qingyuan's sister, "Oh, it's Xiaochuan here, it's rare guests!"

Tang Xiaochuan smiled and nodded: "Hello, sister!"

"How come you have time today?"

Tang Xiaochuan smiled and said, "My father celebrates his birthday in two days. I will come back to my hometown and come to see Aunt Liao!"

Tang Xiaochuan signaled to Guan Jingwen, and Guan Jingwen took out a kraft paper bag from her bag and put it in Aunt Liao's hand.

"Auntie, there is 20,000 yuan here, which is my junior. You can buy whatever you want with the flowers and add some new clothes to yourself!"

When Aunt Liao heard so much money, she quickly refused: "You can't use it, you can't use it. The old woman can't take so much money. You can take it back!"

Tang Xiaochuan forced the kraft paper bag into her hand and said, "Auntie, please take it, it can be regarded as my filial piety for Qingyuan! I have to rush back to Jiangcheng and can't accompany you anymore. You can do it yourself, don't be too tired!"

Aunt Liao quickly said, "I'm leaving just now. Stay here for lunch, I'll go cook right away!"

"I won't bother you anymore. We have to rush back to Jiangcheng for something!"

Tang Xiaochuan said and got up and walked out, and the others also stood up one after another. Tang Xiaochuan called the village party secretary and several village cadres together to walk in the front, "Secretary Fan, I have something I want to ask you all!"

"Mr. Tang, please tell me!"

Tang Xiaochuan took out a kraft paper bag from the handbag held by Brother Zhan, "Secretary Fan, there is 50,000 yuan in it. Please give me 1,000 yuan a month to provide living expenses for Aunt Liao. I didn't give it to her at one time. I believe you should also understand my concerns. If she spent this on her own, of course it should be, but if the money was used by her to supplement her daughter or lend it to others, it would go against my original intention!"

Secretary Fan nodded and agreed: "Mr. Tang's meaning is that you trust us by giving the money to us. We will definitely not let this happen!"

When they arrived at the threshing ground, Tang Xiaochuan shook hands with Secretary Fan and other village cadres and said goodbye, and then said to Aunt Liao: "Auntie, please go back. You must take care of yourself in the future. I will come to see you often, come back!" After that, he took Guan Jingwen and turned around and the helicopter.

"Go back!"

The spiral machine on the helicopter rotated and then slowly rose. Tang Xiaochuan waved his hand down.

Aunt Liao kept waving with tears in her eyes.

After returning to Jiangcheng, Tang Xiaochuan and Guan Jingwen bought some home gifts in the mall.

When entering the door, his sister-in-law Wang Xiuqing saw the two of them carrying things and hurriedly said, "Brother, sister-in-law, they are all a family, there is no need to be so polite!"

"It's all bought for the children!" Guan Jingwen said.

Wang Xiuqing hurriedly took it over and said, "Then thank you brother and sister-in-law, I'll get it!"

After entering the house, Tang Xiaochuan discovered that Tang Hanmin’s father-in-law and mother-in-law were both there. The mother-in-law was cooking and the father-in-law was taking care of the children. He and Guan Jingwen hurriedly said hello: “Uncle and aunt are here too!”

Old Man Wang hurriedly greeted: "Brother and sister-in-law are here, come in and sit in!"

Taking advantage of Tang Hanmin's mother-in-law cooking, Old Man Wang started chatting with Tang Xiaochuan.

"My in-laws quarreled back two months ago. I wonder if they've been getting better recently?"

Tang Xiaochuan said: "It's much better. My dad is not used to urban life. He lives here with all kinds of problems. After he goes back, he has lost all his illnesses. Now he drinks two taels of wine and eats two bowls of rice at every meal!"

"That's good!"

After lunch, the two brothers and two sisters-in-law went out with their luggage. The helicopter was already waiting outside because there were ten bodyguards, and one helicopter could not sit down. Fortunately, Tang Xiaochuan arranged two helicopters in advance. The two helicopters were parked in the square of the community. A group of ten people got on the helicopter and flew towards their hometown.

In my hometown in the countryside.

My mother asked Old Man Tang: "Old man, tomorrow is your birthday, what do you want to eat?"

"Just make a few dishes, no birthdays, I haven't had a birthday in these years, so I'm here!" Old Man Tang sat at the back door to enjoy the cool air.

The temperature was quite high at noon. This country house faced north and south, and was transparent from north to south. When you opened the back door, a cool south wind blew from the gate. It was very cool. In the words of the country people, it was more comfortable than eating meat!

The old couple mixed a few words, took a cool mat and put it on the floor to take a nap.

Soon there was a buzzing sound outside. Not only did the old couple wake up by the noise, but even the villagers in the village heard the noise and walked out of the house to observe.

"Hey, these two helicopters are not the Tang brothers, are they?" A villager said after seeing it on the side of the road.

A person next to him said, "It really landed at the door of the Tang family. Who else can take a helicopter in our village except for the two brothers? It must be that the two brothers are back!"

Another middle-aged woman: "I'm so kind. Before the Tang family was completely developed, their brothers just drove back by themselves at first, but later a full-time driver drove back. Later, they kept changing cars every time they came back. Now their brothers' pomp is getting bigger and bigger. This time they actually took a plane directly to the door of their house. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk

"Don't envy others, you can't envy them, and don't be jealous. People cannot compete with others. If you really compete, you will be pissed off. So, you should relax your heart!"

There was a woman named Fangwoo: "I said it was neither the New Year nor the holiday. Why did the two brothers come back today? I see that Lao Tang and his wife are in good health, nothing is wrong!"

Someone next to him said, "You, don't guess it. Don't pay attention to your words. You can't think about it. After all, your man is still working in the Tang family's factory, and he is paying tens of thousands of yuan a month. You go and ask the people in other villages how much wages they can get every month when they go out to work. You go and ask! The Tang family is good to your family and the whole village. He has done his best to be kind and righteous. If anyone else can do this? Be content with you!"

The woman was ashamed of being criticized by this man, "I, I just said it casually, and I didn't really hope something happened to their family. Why are you like this?"

"What's wrong with me? Do you dare say that you are not expecting something from the Tang family? Let me tell you, if something happens to the Tang family, where will your man go to find a job with a salary of tens of thousands of yuan? Two years ago, last year, did the Tang family give your man a year-end bonus of tens of thousands of yuan at the end of each year? If it was another factory, can you, a small minion working at the bottom, get a year-end bonus of tens of thousands of yuan? Dreaming, people think that your man is from the village and the fellow villagers in the village, take care of you more, why don't you know at least? Do you think he should give this money? So that's what you should give?"

The goblin no longer had the shame to stay, turned around and ran away quickly.

At this time, more and more people gathered on the roadside, and suddenly someone in the crowd said, "I remember that tomorrow seems to be Old Man Tang's birthday. I remember that he is just one year older than my father. My father is the birthday the day after tomorrow. Then Old Tang must be tomorrow's birthday!"

The villagers then suddenly realized that it was Old Man Tang’s birthday. No wonder these two brothers had to fly back thousands of miles away. If they were ordinary families, it would be fine. The round trip cost would cost thousands of yuan. The elderly’s birthday, their children would definitely not come back for a birthday. But the situation of the Tang family is different. Their family does not lack the travel expenses of these three melons and two dates. They can even afford the plane. They are afraid of spending a few gas money?

Someone asked at this time: "You said, Old Man Tang's birthday, should we take some things to go there?"

At this time, the captain of the production team said, "I said, don't talk about Old Tang, Old Tang. He is indeed an ordinary old man, but his two sons are not ordinary people. In the future, if you call Old Tang, you should respect him. You respect him, that is, your two sons. Although the Supreme Emperor has no authority, his identity is there. He may make your men working in his factory work for a few years less!"

Although this sounds a bit unpleasant, it makes sense, and the villagers think so.

A villager asked, "Captain, do you think we will go or not? But if there are too many people going, how can their family have time to arrange meals for so many people?"

"That's true!" The captain thought for a while and said, "If not, we will go this afternoon, send the things over and say a few good words of blessings and leave. His birthday is tomorrow. If the Tang family is willing to arrange a banquet, they will definitely invite us to have dinner tomorrow, and they have enough time to arrange it!"
