When Tian Huairen suddenly heard his daughter ask this question, Tian Huairen's eyes were very complicated. He had been a farmer for half his life, and he suddenly became a nobleman. Can he get used to it? This man is used to being honest, and he can't put on airs and show off all of a sudden.
Tian Huairen is like this. He feels that once he is rich, he should not use his power to overwhelm others. To put it bluntly, he has some integrity in his heart, especially when facing his father and brother.
Tian Huairen opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Nanny, they are relatives after all."
"Relatives? Are there any relatives who are scheming all day long?" Tian Minyan sneered and said, "My father may have thought that my daughter was too unkind, so she showed off such authority when she came back. But what my daughter wants to tell her father is that she is impatient with this."
His plan is to deliberately kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
"Here, dad also said he came to congratulate us."
"Dad, do you believe it? Second uncle and the others asked if they have a share in this title?" Tian Minyan sneered and said: "Dad, our family will definitely move to Kyoto next year. If the old man and the others want to go to Kyoto with them, you
What should I do?”
Tian Huairen was immediately confused and moved his family to Kyoto, but what about the old man and the others?
Seeing that Tian Huairen was being questioned, Tian Minrui knew that this matter was not urgent, so he said: "Dad, it's a big reunion today. Let's not talk about the unpleasant things. It's only proper for us to have a reunion dinner."
Tian Minyan didn't intend to let Tian Huairen make a decision now. She just wanted to take a vaccination in advance to make him mentally prepared.
"No, don't mention the yes or no, I won't be happy." Luo Shi also tried to smooth things over.
Tian Minyan stood up and said, "Yes, Mrs. Zhongxian County."
Her playful teasing made the whole family laugh. Even Tian Huairen temporarily put aside his unpleasant thoughts.
Things were not pleasant over there in the old house. In the main room, people were crying or cursing angrily. The old man was smoking a cigarette and his eyebrows were knitted together.
"Cry, why are you crying during the Chinese New Year? Go back to the house and apply medicine." Mrs. Jiang was tired of scolding. She pointed at the mother and daughter of the Chen family and cursed: "You are the bumbling star, and you are here to bring bad luck to me during the Chinese New Year."
.”
"Mom, what does this have to do with me? Sister Ting is being beaten now." Mrs. Chen couldn't help but return the sentence.
"Don't worry, you raised a daughter like this. She should be laughing if she didn't beat her to death." Mrs. Jiang slapped the kang table and cursed angrily.
Mrs. Chen was sobbing, and when her father-in-law didn't say anything, she looked at Tian Huaide sadly, and saw that he was also frowning. She felt annoyed, so she had to drag Tian Minting back to the house.
"Dad, the third child is such a big deal. What if he becomes a lord? You and mother are his biological parents, and we are also his biological brothers. He actually wants us to kneel down and salute him." Tian Huai was filial and resentful.
I hate to say that kneeling is just kneeling, and there is no benefit at all. This kneeling is in vain.
"No, there's Yan Yatou, she's really a big arrogant person, and there's those nuns around her. I might ask you to kowtow to them one day." Ms. Li didn't forget to provoke her.
"How dare they!" Mrs. Jiang glared and said angrily: "My old lady is not afraid of shortening her life if she is asked to kneel down and salute. Can she bear it?"
"Mom, you should be more assertive. You are the mother of my third uncle and the most respected old lady in this family. They dare not be unfilial." Mrs. Li quickly put on her hat again, with constant calculations in her eyes.
"That is, she is a daughter-in-law, so she should come to the old lady to set the rules. I want to see if she really dares to treat my old lady as a slave."
"That's enough!" The old man was extremely irritable. He glared at Li and the others and said coldly: "Go down and cook for me. You will only stir up trouble all day long."
Li curled her lips and wanted to say something, but Tian Huaixiao tugged her sleeve. After receiving a warning, she had to twist her waist and go down.
When the old man saw her look like that, he shook his head. With such a wife, the family was really uneasy. She was really married to a bad person.
In the main room, only the two brothers Tian Huaide, the old man and Jiang were left.
Tian Huaixiao looked at the old man's face carefully and said cautiously: "Dad, I didn't expect that the third child would have such good fortune. This is really smoke rising from the graves of our old Tian family. Let's see who dares to point fingers at our family in the future."
The old man gave him a cold look. What did his son want to do? Do you really think he is too old to know?
When Tian Huaixiao saw that the old man did not accept the move, he felt secretly resentful. He then looked at Tian Huaide who was shrugging his face, rolled his eyes, and pretended to be excited: "Brother, it seems that your fortune has turned around."
Tian Huaide looked up at him and asked, "How did you say this?"
"Brother, think about it, now that the third brother has become a lord, as long as the third brother pulls the strings, the eldest brother may be able to rehabilitate and become an official again." Tian Huaixiao said slowly.
The old man stopped smoking his cigarette, and when he looked into his eldest son's eyes, there was a brilliance that he had never seen since he was dismissed from office, and he couldn't help but feel sour.
Since he was dismissed from office, the boss has been depressed and unable to farm. He wanted to find someone to teach in a library, but no one wanted him. They were afraid that he would miss other people's children, so he stayed at home and did not move around the village, fearing that he would miss out on other people's children.
To see people.
He knew that this son was afraid of being embarrassed.
The title of the third child is said to be of the third rank, so maybe he can really help the boss!
When Tian Huaixiao saw the old man's move, he snorted in his heart. As long as the boss was involved, the old man couldn't help but pay attention to it, and his bias would reach his armpit.
But at the moment, he couldn't say anything, so he only continued: "Dad, as long as we get to Kyoto, with the relationship between the third brother and Prince Xian, and a little bit of movement, the eldest brother can become an official again, and maybe even become a sixth grader."
Where are the seventh-rank officials?"
Tian Huaide was also a little excited, so he echoed: "Dad, why don't you just ask the third child? If I can recover again, Brother Lin's prospects will be better."
Tian Huaixiao disagreed when he heard this. The eldest family was selfish. They only thought about themselves and never thought about the second eldest brother. If they want to fight for wealth, they can only rely on themselves.
The third child is knighted and will definitely move to Kyoto in the future. As long as the old man can be persuaded to live in Kyoto with him, how can he lose his wealth? In the past, Yokogawa was not considered rich. Kyoto was the real land of yellow and white!
The more Tian Huaixiao thought about it, the more his eyes shone. At the same time, he was also upset. When they separated, it would have been better if he had followed the third child.
He thought beautifully, but he didn't expect that things would turn out as he wished.
The old man was moved by what he said, but he also knew what was going on. He looked into the eyes of his two sons and thought of Tian Minyan's awe-inspiring aura. He sighed, how could the third son and his family be so easy to fool? If nothing else, just
Judging from Tian Minyan's actions today, she blocked the escape route first and killed the chicken to scare the monkeys. She wanted them to be informed and not to make plans easily!
It's a pity that neither of the two sons has thought about that. The old man is a little weak. The second bedroom in the big house is like this. It would be better if he is still here. If he gets old, there will be no one in the two bedrooms who can support the family.
What to do?
On the first day of the new year, Tian Minyan got up early, dressed in festive costumes, and her brothers Tian Minrui, Xiaowu and others came to the main room to pay New Year greetings to Tian Huairen and Luo Shi.
"Dad, Mom, happy New Year, may everything go well in the New Year, may you have good fortune." The three brothers and sisters knelt on the futon and congratulated in unison. Even the little Yaya was supported by Xiaoxing and knelt down, congratulating the New Year in a sweet voice.
It's just that she was a little slower and her greetings were more vague.
"Good boy, get up quickly." Tian Huairen and Luo Shi were also dressed in new clothes. They were very pleased to see their children and handed out red envelopes.
The brothers and sisters took it one by one. Xiaowu, who was young, opened it and looked at it immediately. It was a gold crabapple with a weight of one or two. He couldn't help but smiled and narrowed his eyes and said: "Brother, sister, look, it's a gold claw, dad."
Mom is so generous this year."
Luo Shi looked at him angrily and said, "Don't tell me that your parents are still short of chewing on weekdays?"
Xiao Wu giggled, and Xiao Yaya also drooled, took out the golden lock, raised it up and said: "Brother...Brother, Ya...Ya also has it, golden gold."
"Little sister, you are still young, can you help me hide it for you? We can take it out later when Yaya gets married." Xiao Wu knelt down and pinched Yaya's chubby pink face.
But Yaya quickly retracted her hands, with a vigilant look on her face, she held the gold and hid it behind her back, and said in a sweet voice: "Ya, ya...hide it yourself."
Her little money-obsessed look made Tian Minyan and the others laugh. Tian Huairen even picked her up lovingly and kissed her again and again.
At this moment, Grandma Gu came in and said that people would like to pay New Year's greetings to the master and his wife.
Tian Minyan and the others adjusted their clothes and sat upright one by one with smiles on their faces. The servants came in one after another according to their rank to wish them well and wish them happy New Year. They listened to the auspicious words again and again. Of course, they also gave out a lot of red envelopes.
It was such a happy event that Tian Minyan's family was knighted. The servants were already honored and they were all glad that they had followed the right master. But now that they had the title and their lives were getting better, the red envelope was naturally bigger than last year. Suddenly
, everyone in the house was smiling and laughing so happily.
After paying New Year's greetings, Tian Minyan summoned her servants to make arrangements for the next few days. News of their family's knighthood spread. I believe that from today onwards, people who come to pay New Year's greetings will cross the threshold, and there will be a three-day banquet starting from the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
The banquet must also be properly arranged, and all personnel must be planned and perform their duties to avoid chaos.
After eating the morning meal, Tian Minyan and the others went to the old house to pay New Year greetings to the old man and the others. Along the way, they saw many fellow villagers who stopped to say hello to each other, with somewhat respectful and envious expressions. Tian Huairen and the others also did not have any airs and were very kind to them.
Children are also given red envelopes.
At the gate of the old house, Tian Minlin and the others were already waiting there. When they saw Tian Minyan and the others coming, they quickly came to greet them.
"Third uncle, third aunt, happy New Year." Tian Minlin smiled and wished him a happy New Year. Mr. Ma, who was standing next to him, said hello and said with a smile: "The old man and the others have been waiting in the house for a long time."
Entering the main room, the room was full of people, except Tian Minting who was not there. Tian Minyan raised her eyebrows.
Seeing Tian Huairen and the others coming, the old man was a little excited. Before Tian Huairen and the others knelt down, he had already called out and gave red envelopes to everyone. Although Jiang didn't smile much, he also gave red envelopes.
After paying New Year's greetings to the old man, Tian Minyan and his juniors also paid New Year's greetings to Tian Huaide and their elders. However, they did not kneel down and kowtow, but just saluted.
After receiving the red envelope, Tian Minyan and the others were arranged to sit down. Tian Huairen was pulled by the old man to sit on the kang, which was the seat where only Tian Huaide had always sat. And for the first time, Jiang took out a brand new futon for Tian Minyan and Luo Shi.
Chair to sit on.
Tian Minyan and the others sat down, and the juniors from the first and second bedrooms gave Tian Huairen and Luo Shi New Year greetings. His new daughter-in-law, Ma Shi and Ding, also served tea. Luo Shi distributed red envelopes one by one. The second bedroom Gou Sheng opened them on the spot and ran around the house cheering when he saw the silver coins.
, Ding was extremely embarrassed.
During the Chinese New Year, it is very impolite to open the red envelopes given by outsiders on the spot to see how much was given.
"Three uncles and three aunts are so generous." Mr. Li complimented with a smile.
The old man glared at her and said, "Let the children go out and play, they are noisy."
Soon, several children ran out. Tian Minrui and the others, who were already half-grown, sat there chatting with them without saying a word.
"Third brother, you guys are going to have a banquet on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. How do you do it? If you need help with anything, just ask, it's all hands-on and there's no fuss." The old man said with a smile.
"Dad, everyone is preparing. As for the busy stuff, we plan to ask the chefs on the first floor to come over and cook. The theater troupe has also sent people to contact us." Tian Huairen replied: "Dad, you can just go and sit down at the table.
Just listen to the play."
"How about greeting the guests? Third uncle, we can help." Mrs. Chen said eagerly.
"I don't have time to post the post. Only a few relatively good families are having separate banquets, and I don't know if they can have time. During the Chinese New Year, we are all sitting down and we are busy. If there are not enough people by then, I will ask my sister-in-law to greet me."
"Hey, that's a good relationship." Mrs. Chen smiled happily after hearing this. Seeing her daughter-in-law on the side, she added: "Your eldest nephew's daughter-in-law is also from everyone, she can also help."
Mrs. Ma was much more restrained than Mrs. Chen. She just smiled and gave a blessing and said, "If the third uncle and the third aunt give orders, my nephew and wife will definitely not hesitate."
Tian Minyan raised her eyes and looked at Mrs. Ma, seeing that she was calm and calm. Although she was trying to please her, she was not deliberately doing so. She didn't know if she really didn't care or if she was just pretending.
She lowered her eyelids and suddenly felt a hot and somewhat sharp gaze staring at her. She raised her head and faced it in that direction. She saw Jiang glaring at the jewelry on her head. When Tian Minyan suddenly looked over, she had no time to retract her gaze.
, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed after being seen through, and his face became a little unhappy.
Tian Minyan smiled slightly, this was envy and jealousy!
Tian Huaixiao saw that the old man and the third child were not talking to the point, so he couldn't help but feel anxious, so he bumped into Mr. Li.
Tian Minyan saw it out of the corner of her eye, and then looked at Tian Huaide, who was also a little anxious, so she put down the tea cup and said: "Dad, it's time for someone to come home to pay New Year's greetings. Should we go back and prepare something, in case the guests come, and we won't be home when we're not home?"
alright."
The old man was interrupted by Tian Minyan. When he heard that he was about to leave again, he felt a little dissatisfied and his smile faded a little.
"Girl Yan, you go back first. This is the Chinese New Year. We, the gentlemen, will have two cups of wine with your father." Tian Huaixiao became anxious upon hearing this and said hurriedly.
As soon as these words came out, Tian Minyan was even more sure that they must ask for something, and her eyes looked towards Tian Huaixiao.
Thank you dear friends for the red envelope. I worked hard today. I’m going to start walking. I’m so tired. Let’s go to bed~
