Because Tian Huaide's official affairs were not yet clear, the family fell from the clouds of joy to their feet again. During dinner, the atmosphere was no longer as cheerful as it had been in the past few days. It was gloomy and gloomy. Even Xiao Wu remained silent.
Tian Huailan couldn't say anything about such an atmosphere. After dinner, he set up the oxcart and went back to town.
While driving the car, Yang Dayong cursed: "You gave me two pieces of good cloth for nothing, and I still give it back to you. Damn! Wearing a dragon robe doesn't look like a prince. Who else do you dare to be rude to?"
Tian Huailan felt guilty and just hugged the two children without saying a word. She felt really aggrieved and a little depressed. This was obviously a certainty, so how could it change?
If the eldest brother really fails to become an official, this enemy will probably attack her again.
"The paperwork will come out in two days. I heard that my sister-in-law has taken care of it a lot," she said weakly.
"Bah!" Yang Dayong spat on the side of the road again, turned around and said viciously: "I see that he has no luck at all. How can your Tian family still be able to leap over the dragon's gate? Humph!"
Yang Dayong felt particularly depressed when he thought about how he nodded and bowed in front of his two uncles all afternoon. Why wasn't Tian Huaide so arrogant when he was eating and drinking at his house in town? Being a sesame official,
This time, the matter was not completely settled yet, yet she actually dared to glare at him.
Tian Huailan was also angry, and sneered: "Yang Dayong, when do you know when to look at people? I would like to advise you, don't be too arrogant, things will change at any time, and no one knows when.
"
"Change into an egg." Yang Dayong sighed and cursed. He turned around and wanted to curse, but looking at his wife's cold eyes, he thought to himself, there is really no telling what will happen in the future. Maybe it will happen.
It's possible that there was a delay. What if this woman spreads this word back?
After weighing the pros and cons, Yang Dayong suppressed the anger in his heart and stopped scolding Tian Huailan. He only directed his anger at the cow and cursed vigorously.
Tian Huailan saw that he stopped talking and knew that he also took it to heart. She breathed a sigh of relief and just hoped that the paperwork for her eldest brother's appointment would come soon so that she could straighten up!
In Tian's house, oil lamps were lit in several rooms, and no one was sleeping.
In the main room, Mr. Tian sighed, stood up from the kang, took the pipe on the window sill and lit up a dry cigarette.
"Frying pancakes, this is going around and around." Mr. Jiang muttered.
"You sleep in your bed." Mr. Tian said angrily while rolling a cigarette and thinking about something on his mind.
"What do you want to do? I have to go to the fields tomorrow to see the crops, so go to bed quickly." Jiang turned her back to him and yawned loudly.
"You old woman, how do you know?" Mr. Tian lit up a cigarette with a flint, puffed on it, and said: "We, the Tian family, have been farmers all our lives, and we finally surrendered to an official. How can this change?
?When I think of that possibility, my heart feels like it is being pressed by the big stone slab in front of the house. I can’t breathe and feel uncomfortable all the time.”
"It's just that you're worried. It's not confirmed yet. The delay is part of it. Maybe the book will come home tomorrow." Jiang was so disturbed by him that he couldn't sleep, so he had to sit up and pick up the big tile beside him.
Glass of drinking water.
"I hope it's just a delay. If it's like the second brother said, I...hey." Mr. Tian let out a long sigh again.
"Come on, come on, what good things have come out of that mouth? I just said it casually, but you remembered it." That's the good thing about Jiang. He won't think deeply about inaccurate things and won't be disturbed by them.
I have too many thoughts. To put it nicely, it means that you have a resilience that will not shed tears even if you see the coffin. To put it badly, it means that you are lacking in strength and have no idea.
"Go to sleep, I'm blowing out the lamp." Seeing that he didn't speak, Mrs. Jiang leaned over and blew out the oil lamp on the kang, then lay down again. After a while, she started snoring.
Mr. Tian sat in the darkness with the faint light coming from outside the window. He took the last puff of his cigarette and thought of the worst possibilities before lying down with deep thoughts.
In the wing room at the north end, Mrs. Li was next to Tian Huaixiao, with a look of urgency on her round and fat face.
"Is it really not possible? Is this wealth really gone?" When she heard the news that her eldest son might not be able to become an official, she suddenly withered.
What can we do? Her dream of being a wife, her delicacies, and her life of wealth are all gone?
"Go, how did I know?" Tian Huaixiao was also very troubled, fearing that his casual words would come true, but it would really be a duck that has heard what he said.
"What will happen if the boss really can't become an official?" Li asked in a voice.
"What should we do, let's have some cold drinks." Tian Huaixiao responded angrily, fell down on the kang and closed his eyes.
What else can we do? What day was it in the past and what day it will be in the future.
"Let's get down to business, you can still sleep, you bastard." Mrs. Li hit his thigh hard, but when he saw that he still ignored her, she fell down in frustration.
The west chamber is the quietest place in the Tian family and is not affected by the chief official's affairs.
On the top of the kang, Luo Shi and Tian Huairen were sleeping, with Xiao Wu among them. At the end of the kang, there were Tian Minyan and Tian Minrui. The whole family was talking in the darkness.
"I really hope that uncle will get the document quickly and cross the river as soon as possible." Luo Shi said while patting Xiao Wu on the back.
You know, when the eldest son leaves, the second eldest son's family will also follow him, as well as the old man and her mother-in-law. Even if the family is not separated, she can live a peaceful life with peace of mind.
"Mom, don't worry, uncle will be there." Tian Minyan said firmly from the end of the kang.
Although I don't know what went wrong in the middle, the tragic book in his previous life mentioned how Tian Huaide's official career was, so he will definitely become an official. It's just a long-term problem.
"I think dad is getting angry." Tian Huairen said, "I smoked a lot of cigarettes tonight."
"The old man is most concerned about the boss's appointment as an official. Can you not be in a hurry?" Luo Shi snorted, and he didn't know whether it was sarcasm or ridicule: "If you change it, you can see again." It's just that the old man is partial.
The armpit is gone.
Tian Huairen hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, I'm not that kind of person."
Luo Shi was silent, but Tian Minyan knew that she must be dissatisfied in her heart. She was possessed by this body when she first came here, and she felt disdain when she saw the old man's extreme partiality, let alone Luo Shi, who had lived with this big family for more than ten years.
"My grandma prayed to all the gods and Buddhas tonight, saying she was afraid that my uncle would get in trouble or something. I looked at my grandpa very nervously and told her not to forget to go to the river to offer incense to the river god." Tian Minrui was at this moment.
Said something.
People in ancient times were very superstitious. Whenever something happened, they would think that they were in conflict with something or something bad. They would pray to gods and Buddhas and ask for blessings. They never thought of looking for the cause within themselves. Therefore, Jiang
Tian Minyan was not surprised at all that she would do this.
"In order for my uncle to become an official, my grandpa and grandma have thought of all kinds of ways, except that they didn't invite Mrs. Zhang to dance the great dance... Hey, I have it." As Tian Minyan said this, she suddenly turned over from the kang and sat up, her eyes were on
Glittering in the dark.
"What's wrong?" Luo Shi lit the oil lamp and looked at his daughter: "What are you calling?"
"Dad, Mom, I know how to get grandpa to agree to the separation of the family." Tian Minyan excitedly waved her fist in the air.
