Luo firmly refused Chen's request, which made Jiang very angry. He stood at the door of the main room and cursed almost all night, and did not stop until the lights in the west wing were blown out.
On the second day, the rooster crowed, and Jiang, who had always been sleeping lightly, got up and cursed in the yard again, waking everyone up.
Tian Huairen simply got up, said something to Luo, and then picked up a basket and went out to pick up dung.
Although Tian Minyan and his family are now living well, both Tian Huairen and Tian Minyan are very diligent and frugal. Even if they built a public toilet, Tian Huairen would go outside to pick up feces every morning.
Tian Minyan lay down for a while and then got up. Today she also contacted the fishmonger to collect the fish. She had to organize long-term workers to fish for the fish, but she didn't have much time to deal with the Jiang family.
Seeing them, Jiang still had a nose that was not a nose, eyes that were not eyes, and he didn't have a single kind word to say, but he made Xiaoxing and Baimei spin around.
As for Chen, she didn't have a good face either, but Luo felt more at ease with her like this. She really couldn't stand Chen's pretentious and calculated intimacy.
After breakfast, the two brothers Tian Minrui went to town to study, while Tian Minyan and Tian Huairen went to the fields to fish.
Since the beginning of autumn, the fish in the fields have grown very fast. After a lot of hard work, they sold more than eighty kilograms, and the money they got was enough to make Tian Huairen so happy that he couldn't even see it.
Tian Minyan roughly estimated that there must be several thousand kilograms of fish in the field when it is harvested, and there will be a considerable income. Not only Tian Huairen, but also several long-term workers will be happy.
After all, the owner has promised that if there is a good harvest, they will also have some incentives and dividends, so naturally they are looking forward to a good harvest in these fields.
After sorting all the crops in the field and irrigating hundreds of acres of wasteland, Tian Minyan went to the old house at the end of the village to see the seed potatoes.
"Second girl, these have already sprouted. I think they will be ready for planting in a few days. I never thought that your method could really work." Zhou Gui lifted up the thin films covering the cut pieces of seed potatoes, and young green sprouts had already grown.
.
Tian Minyan smiled and said: "It's always like this in winter. If you want to make it faster, you can put it on the kang to germinate."
"Second girl, you are so awesome." Zhou Gui looked at her with admiration, his eyes full of admiration.
Tian Minyan smiled, asked him to cover the cut pieces, and said: "This batch is no better than the previous ones. We can't finish the planting with just a few people, so we have to recruit more day laborers."
"Speaking of this, when we were cutting the sub into pieces last time, many villagers already said they would come to help." Zhou Gui pulled up the film and followed her out the door.
Tian Minyan also knew about this, and this was also because their third wife was now married, and because their family had promised to take the big guys to raise fish in the rice fields next year, they were all busy trying to get involved.
After giving Zhou Gui a few instructions, Tian Minyan and Tian Huairen went home together. Before they entered the house, Bai Mei rushed out with a cold and angry face.
"Bai Mei, what's wrong?" Tian Minyan hurriedly pulled her and asked.
"Second girl, I'm going to go for a walk in the back mountain. Otherwise, I really don't know what I would do." Bai Mei pursed her lips and said, then she took her hand away and ran away.
Tian Minyan looked at her back, her face sank, and when she walked into the house, she saw Xiaoxing cowering at the door of the west wing.
"Second Miss." When she saw Tian Minyan, Xiaoxing hurriedly ran over and pulled her sleeves, looking scared.
"What's going on?"
"The old lady scolded Sister Bai Mei." Xiaoxing lowered her voice and told her what happened just now.
It turned out that during breakfast, Mrs. Jiang had accumulated food and asked Bai Mei to make a pot of hot tea. Bai Mei was messing with the pig food at the time and didn't respond. Jiang couldn't wait any longer, so he scolded her.
That person from the Jiang family is not unpleasant and doesn't know how to scold him. He is a little prostitute and a little fox. Every sentence is inserted into Bai Mei's heart. Bai Mei is a person who has experienced catastrophes. How can he bear it? He didn't open his mouth to refute, just cold.
Looking at Jiangshi coldly, Jiangshi was startled.
Jiang calmed down and saw that she was just showing off. She remembered that the whole family in the third house had turned a deaf ear to her words, and now even the maid dared to look at her. Her anger immediately rose, and she put her hands on her hips and cursed more and more.
It's so fierce.
Bai Mei couldn't bear it anymore, put down her work, and said, "The old lady thinks I'm an eyesore, so I'll go out right now, okay?" She ran out after that.
Tian Minyan's face turned gloomy when she heard this, and she asked, "Where's my wife?"
"My wife said she wanted to borrow a thread from Aunt Zhu, but she hasn't come home yet."
Tian Minyan was delighted when she heard this. Did their family still lack a line? Luo Shi must have gone out to seek refuge!
"How could she do this?" Tian Huairen frowned deeply.
Why can't this be like this? This person has always regarded herself as the empress dowager. She can do whatever she says, and no one can refute her.
"Third brother, come in here."
Just as he was talking, Mr. Jiang walked out of the main room again, shouting with a sullen face.
After hearing this, Tian Minyan said, "Dad, I'll accompany you." After saying that, the two father and daughter walked in together.
In the main room, Ms. Jiang was sitting cross-legged on the Kang when she saw Tian Minyan also coming in. Her face darkened and she said, "Girl Yan, what are you doing in here? Go play outside."
"No, I want to follow my father." Tian Minyan would not say anything nice to her, she would just have an Electra complex. She was only eleven years old anyway.
Jiang's face became even darker. She looked at Tian Huairen and saw that he was not following her will and could not force the girl to be dragged out. She said coldly: "You are so angry now. Even if you recruit a girl, you will be more angry than me."
The master is going to be tough. That girl named Bai Mei, haha, she can't even move an old woman like me, and she dares to look at her. Third child, are you recruiting this girl or your ancestor? Ah? Are there any rules?
You grabbed her early. Your eldest brother-in-law also has a niece, so let her be a girl for your family. This person is better than outsiders, let alone those from outside who don’t know their roots. Just this Baimei,
It just doesn’t look like it.”
Tian Minyan sneered in her heart after hearing this. Recruiting Tian Huaifang's niece as a girl? That is really like recruiting an ancestor to come to the house. Not only will she be paid for free, but she will also have to be raised as a young lady.
Tian Huairen was stunned and said: "Mom, Sanniang and Nannan have always taken care of the girls in this family. Bai Mei, she is actually a bit cold-tempered."
"What bastard words are you talking about? Are you still a man with balls? You can't take the lead in this matter, so what responsibility can you have, ah?" Mrs. Jiang slammed the kang table and coldly snorted: "That's all you have.
Mother-in-law, what kind of family can I be? Bah! You will only lose your family!"
"Mom, why did my mother lose her family? She asked you and my eldest aunt to come home for breakfast today, which is why we made it so rich. We don't have such a good time on weekdays. A plate of pickles, a few steamed buns and a few bowls of porridge are enough.
, this is all thanks to you!" Tian Minyan couldn't hear Jiang Shi pointing at Luo Shi, and immediately retorted: "Mom, you still have too much food today!"
The implication is that you always have too much food even after breakfast, all because of Luo's rare 'waste'!
Jiang's face turned red, then darkened, his eyebrows stood up, his triangular eyes widened, and he cursed: "When did you learn to be so humble? Why did you interrupt the elders when they were talking? How did your mother do it?"
She teaches you, go and call her here, I want to ask her how she raises her children."
"Mother!" Tian Huairen's tone was a little displeased.
"What's wrong? I can't say anything about you, mother! You're still crawling out of my intestines. Even if I scold you and beat you, you won't even say a word." Jiang straightened her waist and said coldly, "You should also learn from this.
If you have that majesty, you won’t need me anymore if you have a wife, look carefully at the blue sky above your head."
"Dad, it seems that grandma has nothing to say. Let's go out so as not to disturb her rest." Tian Minyan stood up, pulled Tian Huairen's sleeves and looked at her again and said: "As for recruiting a girl, Bai Mei is
My girl, our whole family is very concerned about her work. I can’t afford to hire my uncle’s niece, nor can I afford to support an ancestor. Mom, please stop working.”
Tian Huairen was also disappointed, and his voice lacked any warmth, and he said calmly: "Mom, please rest, let's go back to the house first."
Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, Mr. Jiang was so angry that his head was about to smoke. Suddenly he thought that the most important thing had not been said yet, so he softened his tone slightly and said, "Third brother, please wait."
Tian Huairen turned around and looked at his mother who was sitting cross-legged on the kang, pursed her lips and said nothing.
"I heard what your father said that you were raising fish in the rice fields, but now you have a harvest?" Jiang asked looking at Tian Huairen.
Tian Minyan's heart tightened after hearing this, her eyes turned cold, and she lightly pulled on Tian Huairen's sleeve. The latter remained silent.
"Today we went to catch fish and sell them, right? How much money did we receive?"
"Not much." Tian Huairen replied calmly.
Tian Minyan didn't want to play around with Jiang, so she asked directly: "Mom, what do you want?"
After hearing this tone, Mr. Jiang's eyes stood up again and he was about to get angry. But thinking of what Mr. Chen and Tian Huaifang said, he endured it and said, "When I gave you the land to sow, I promised you that we would get the harvest."
20% of the fish. Now that the fish is sold, your father and I should naturally get a share. You can settle the money and I’ll take it back to you while you’re home, so you don’t have to run around all the time."
Oh, it turns out that Jiang had such a plan. Tian Minyan chuckled and raised the corners of his mouth sarcastically.
Tian Huairen opened his mouth in confusion, astonished as if he had heard a fantasy.
"Mom, the contract for the sharecropping farm stated that 20% of the grain was 20% of the grain, but the fish was not included. The grain from the autumn sowing crop has not yet been confiscated." Tian Minyan said in a haphazard voice, "We can't pay for this fish."
"Why? The land you raise fish on is mine, why can't I give it to you? Why, you are trying to imitate that scoundrel and want to cheat? You are depriving your parents of their rations, so you don't have to worry about others drooling over your conscience."
"Mom, when did our room deprive you and grandpa of your rations? Now that you and your eldest aunt are here, our third room has made food for you. Last time, when your second uncle and your little aunt came back, they gave it to us.
I always use my money as food. Grandma, you have to be kind!" Tian Minyan sneered.
Jiang's face heated up after hearing this, and she said angrily: "You girl, I'm talking to your father, it's none of your business, so don't say anything, third child!" She squinted her triangular eyes and looked at Tian Huairen.
With a vague threat.
"The land is indeed yours, but grandma, when you went to Henghe, you gave the land to us to plant, and grandpa himself drew the pledge. As long as we pay the tenants on time and according to the quota, we will do whatever we want to do with the land.
It's our business." Tian Minyan ignored her and sneered: "We will send the food to Henghe after October. Grandma, just wait and see. As for the rest, there is nothing else."
"I've betrayed you! I'm going to get the money today, otherwise, you won't be able to rent my land anymore." Mrs. Jiang snorted and raised her chin proudly.
Tian Huairen looked at his mother's face and felt a basin of ice water pouring down from his head, making it feel chilly and surrounded by cold air.
"If you don't have money, it doesn't matter if we don't rent this land. Now that we have earned some money, if you want to farm the land, you can buy it. It's just that the 20% of the grain we gave you for rent according to the contract has been messed with by us.
You can get 30% or even 40% out of it. Grandma, are you sure you really don’t want to rent it to our family?"
Tian Minyan sneered, "Are you threatening? I don't know who is threatening who!"
Sure enough, Mrs. Jiang's expression changed, she pointed at Tian Minyan who was so angry that you couldn't stop, and then looked at the third child who was pretending to be dead. Suddenly he let out an ouch and fell on the kang and groaned: "Ouch, this old woman of mine is going to die.
He's going to die. Oh, you unscrupulous descendants, oh."
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Mrs. Chen walked in at the right time, threw herself on the kang, supported Mrs. Jiang and called, "Mother, your heart hurts?"
"Oh, don't worry about me. I'll let this old woman die. I'll make this bastard big with shit and pee, so that he can gouge out my old woman's heart." Jiang shouted to the sky and the earth, beating his legs again and again.
It's beating the chest.
"Third son, my mother is already old, what can't she say? She just wants something. As children, even if we pick the stars and the moon, we have to pick it all for her. How can you do it? Third brother,
Listen to my sister-in-law's advice, you will also get old." Ms. Chen pretended to be as distressed as a sister-in-law and taught her a lesson: "Comparing your feelings with your own, if Yan Yatou treats you like this in the future, do you still want to die?
"
After hearing this, Tian Minyan sneered again and again, "Look, it's different when you become an official's wife. What she said was really upright and upright."
"Auntie's words are wrong. We haven't seen much of the world in this room, but we also know that we need to be kind." Tian Minyan looked directly into Mrs. Chen's eyes and said, "My father and our brothers and sisters,
But you can't do anything like plotting against others without conscience."
Mrs. Chen's face heated up and she said in a deep voice: "Girl Yan, what do you mean?"
"Auntie is so smart, she can't help but know." Tian Minyan chuckled and said to Tian Huairen: "Dad, let's go back. My eldest aunt is very filial and is very close to my grandma. She will definitely take good care of her.
Yes, this is none of our business, right? The provincial grandma felt heartbroken when she saw us."
Without waiting for the two people on the kang to do anything, she pulled Tian Huairen away. When she stepped out of the door, she looked back at Mrs. Chen pretending to be puzzled and asked: "By the way, auntie, there is a saying called too many
If you do unrighteousness, you will die, what does this mean?"
