It turned out that the carriage shop sent a message saying that Tian Huaide had something to discuss with the old man and asked him to return to Henghe as soon as possible. As for what it was about, he didn't say anything.
"Dad, what about the grain?" Tian Huairen was stunned and asked, "In two days, the grain will be almost dry and can be transported back."
"I'll go back first. I don't know if your eldest brother has any urgent matters. Your second brother will transport the food back." The old man said this, then quickly got into the carriage and urged the driver to leave.
Tian Minyan frowned. What was this second uncle planning? He was clearly trying to get rid of the old man. Otherwise, it would have been such a coincidence. He showed up at the carriage shop yesterday, and today they came to deliver the news that the uncle was here to invite the old man back to Henghe.
?
Oh, I wouldn't believe it even to death, this is just a coincidence.
It wasn't until the carriage disappeared that Tian Minyan and his daughter entered the house. Tian Huairen also asked his daughter why the old man came in such a hurry and couldn't even wait for two days.
Tian Minyan sneered, as long as it involves Tian Huaide's affairs, can the old man not be anxious? I'm afraid he can't wait to get his wings and fly back. But the second uncle is shrewd this time and knows how to use the old man's favorite people as a cover.
Entering the yard, he saw the little Taohua who had just come out of the north room with a smile on his face and his eyebrows curled with joy. Tian Min raised his eyebrows and squinted his eyes and said, "I'm afraid that someone has plotted against me."
Tian Huairen didn't know why, so he let out a sigh, followed her gaze, and his face immediately turned cold.
"Third brother, you came back just in time. Please weigh out all the grains. Dad is back, and we have to go back to Henghe." When Tian Huaixiao saw Tian Huairen coming back, he raised his chin and ordered proudly.
"Second brother, there is still some food that has not been dried."
"Then you weigh the dried ones and keep your share of the undried ones. Don't delay. I have to go back to Henghe to earn money." Tian Huaixiao walked up to him and couldn't help but think of what happened two days ago.
He said coldly: "Third brother, you are really impressive when you come back now. I really underestimated you. You are so capable now, and I suffered a big loss from your second brother."
"Hey, Second Uncle, you said it the other way around. It's you, Second Uncle, who should be the most impressive, right? You're dressed in silk and satin, and you're not simple-minded. You use other people's money to open a shop to make money, and you're all alone.
You don't even have to come out, the second uncle is so clever." Tian Minyan sneered.
"You..." Tian Huaixiao's face turned red when she stabbed her. He glared at her and said, "Yan Yatou, you can't be so strong as a girl. Otherwise, how will you talk about your husband's family in the future? Do you have any reason to interrupt what your elders are saying? No.
Even with a little tutoring, I don’t know how your mother taught you, but you have become more cunning and powerful."
"Look, dad, I said that my second uncle is impressive. How long have you been in Henghe? How eloquent are you in lecturing people?" Tian Minyan didn't take him seriously at all.
He looked at the two of them and said to Tian Huairen with a smile on their faces: "Dad, let's go back to the house and tell mother that we have acquired another piece of land. Although it does not belong to the official wife or the lord, we are still a small landowner."
When Tian Huaixiao and Xiao Taohua heard this, their eyes turned red. No wonder they saw the charlatan Deng Fugui coming to pick up someone early in the morning. It turned out that he was buying land. Cai'er said in front of the old man that he had no money, so he told them
I borrowed a second house, and now I'm going to buy land in the blink of an eye. It's obviously just to watch them act like a monkey.
Tian Minyan sneered in her heart when she saw it. She just wanted to let them know that there is money in the third house, but not even half of it will go into your hands.
Tian Huairen had nothing to say to the two of them, so he went back to the west wing with Tian Minyan.
"Lao San, you will weigh out the grain tomorrow. I've already called someone to pull it out." Tian Huaixiao called behind him.
"Sure." Tian Huairen paused for a moment and then agreed.
Tian Minyan glanced over coldly, not ignoring the joy in their eyes. Are they trying to get this food?
The next day, Tian Huaixiao actually called a carriage to bring grain, and Tian Huairen and Xie Chengzhong were busy weighing out the grain for the old man and the others.
In addition to the land allocated to the third house, there are still eighteen acres of land in the old house. Among them, there are fourteen acres of paddy fields. Each mu produces two shi of grain, which is shared equally with the third house. There are also more than ten shi, which is about two thousand kilograms.
grain, and the remaining two acres of sweet potatoes have not yet been confiscated.
However, Tian Minyan looked at the people who came to pull food and didn't look like they were from a carriage and horse shop, especially the man in a long robe, who looked like the shopkeeper of a rice shop.
She looked at the people who were helping to move the food, and she felt more and more that they were helpers or something. Tian Minyan rolled her eyes and gave instructions to Xiaoxing, who immediately ran into the house. Soon, she got a pot of tea and
A bowl came to pour water for the day laborers diligently.
"Brother, how much does it cost per stone to buy millet in your rice store? My master also wants to sell some grain at home." Xiaoxing asked casually with a smile.
Seeing that she was a child, the clerk took a sip of water and replied strangely: "Ah, isn't this what your family sells? One tael of silver and two kilo of rice." Xiaoxing said oh and changed the subject again.
.
"Second girl, it's just as you expected. She is really from Midian." Xiao Xingba received the news and immediately said to Tian Minyan excitedly, with eyes full of admiration and admiration. The girl is so amazing, she can do anything.
You can guess.
Only then did Tian Minyan understand that her original idea was to take away the old man, sell the grain, get the money, and then enrich herself from it?
Haha, it's really easy to calculate.
Tian Minyan turned around and went back to the house. After thinking about it, she asked Xiaoxing to call Tian Huairen in.
"Nanny, what's going on?" Tian Huairen entered the west wing and asked, "We're weighing grain."
"Dad, the grain will not be transported to Henghe. Those people outside are from the rice shop, and the second uncle sold the grain." Tian Minyan calmly explained her speculation.
"He really wants money like crazy." Tian Huairen was shocked when he heard this. He stood up from the kang and said: "The old man ordered thousands of people to bring grain back to Henghe for rations. How dare he sell it on his own initiative?"
Now, you’re not afraid that dad will break his legs?”
"Dad, it's nothing new to kill them first and then tell them later. Don't forget that my second aunt did it too, but what happened then? You saw it too. In addition to scolding them, could grandpa beat them to death?" Tian Minyan sneered.
He said: "No matter how expensive food is, can it be more expensive than human life? They are so confident."
The old man is like a man. No matter how angry he is, he will only beat and scold him at most. Will he really beat him to death? Absolutely not. So, the second wife continued to make mistakes again and again. As long as he didn't die, he would be fine. Skin injuries
, it will be fine after a few days!
Tian Huairen was startled, sighed, thought for a while and said, "No, I have to talk to him. If he does this, the old man will be mad to death." After saying that, he walked out quickly.
"Let me tell you, it doesn't matter what they are selling, why should we care about those individuals." Luo Che held the soles of his shoes and muttered: "Your father is very stubborn and can't see anything."
Tian Huairen is like this, even though he clearly knows that the old man is partial, he still can't completely ignore it.
Tian Minyan chuckled and said: "Actually, the calculation of the second uncle and the others is quite light. They only know how to get some benefits. If they are more flexible, there are many ways to swallow up all the money from selling food."
"Ah?" Luo Shi looked at her in surprise.
Tian Minyan did not explain. In fact, the old man was coaxed away. Tian Huaixiao and the others could have put on a show and said that they were robbed by bandits on the way back from transporting food. In this way, wouldn't they be able to swallow all the money? Why bother?
Twists and turns?
There are TV shows like this, where you hire someone to kidnap you, then demand a ransom from your family, direct and act on your own, and if necessary, make a trick.
But Tian Huairen angrily pulled Tian Huaixiao aside and asked him sharply if he had sold all the grain.
Tian Huaixiao was stunned for a moment, thinking how did he know? But after a while, he shook off his hand and said: "Third brother, we are all separated. What do I do with the food in our house? What does it have to do with you?"
?Do you really think that I am your parent and have nothing to do with you? Who are you trying to show your authority to?"
Tian Huairen said solemnly: "Father said that all this grain would be taken to Henghe to be used as rations, but not only did you sell it, you also coaxed him away and sold him without telling Dad. Do you want to make Dad angry or dead?
I want dad to beat you to death."
"Don't pretend to be a filial son in front of me. If you have such filial piety, why don't you bring your parents back to support you? There's nothing you can't do about selling grain. Carrying money is not better than hauling thousands of kilograms of grain. It also saves time and effort.
It also saves money on carriages and horses. Besides, with the money here, what kind of food can't be bought when we return to Henghe?" Tian Huaixiao snorted, squinted at him and said: "Third brother, you are so hypocritical, you are such a hypocrite.
People are cunning."
"Am I cunning? It was the second brother who was plotting against me from the beginning to the end. That's all. I only think of you as the second brother because you were deceived by others." Tian Huairen sneered. "But you dare to say that you don't want to take advantage of it as a food seller.
Want to get some benefits? Second brother, you won’t give all the money from selling grain to the old man, right?”
Being told that it was a central matter, Tian Huaixiao suddenly became angry and said coldly: "Third brother, this matter is not your turn, and you can't do it. We will go back to Henghe in the afternoon, and my former mother-in-law even gave me a lot of money to take you there."
Let's eat, we haven't even had a few meals now, you are the third master and you are not short of money, I have a big family to support, so you can give us all the remaining money."
Seeing that he was so unwilling to listen, Tian Huairen said coldly: "Second brother, don't worry, I don't want your money either. I only advise you, don't always listen to your concubine, otherwise, you will be betrayed."
I don’t even know what’s going on.”
"You fart! She is your sister-in-law." Tian Huaixiao couldn't bear to hear people say bad things about his concubine. He jumped up in anger and stared angrily.
Tian Huairen snorted coldly and said nothing else. He just said something about himself and went back to the house.
The author is sorry. I have been under great pressure these days. I am not in the best state, and even less. I am sorry.
