The old man returned to his old house with a sad look on his face, and Tian Huaide and the others happily welcomed him.
"Dad, what's wrong? Do you think the third child will help his son recover?"
"Dad, has the third brother promised to take us to Kyoto to enjoy the blessings?" Tian Huaixiao asked excitedly, rubbing his hands together.
"Oh, then I have to go pack my luggage." Mrs. Li slapped her thigh and said with a grin.
"You're stupid. What's wrong with Kyoto? What else do you need to clean up? You say you're a bastard but you still don't recognize you." Tian Huaixiao glared at her.
"Yes, yes, sir, you are right."
The old man looked at these sons and daughters-in-law, and then thought of Tian Minyan's merciless lectures, and felt sour and angry at the same time.
"That's enough. What are you dreaming about? Who said you were going to Kyoto? What does the third rich man have to do with you? If you have such ambitions, it's better to plant two fields in a down-to-earth manner." The old man pointed at Tian Huaixiao and Li and scolded
Said: "Look at your virtues, you are so lazy and so good, your good days can fall from the sky, you are so beautiful."
Tian Huaixiao and the others were a little stunned by the old man's reprimand. Seeing that the old man's expression was really wrong, he cautiously asked: "Dad, what's wrong?" Thinking that the old man came back from Lao San's house, he said calmly: "Dad, what's wrong?"
But are you angry with the Third Brother? I'll go find him."
"Shut up." Seeing Tian Huaixiao holding his neck, the old man felt more and more embarrassed that Tian Minyan was scolding him. He couldn't help but said angrily: "You are such a violent person. Fortunately, you are in the countryside and you have to go out.
I've already made myself feel ashamed."
Tian Huaixiao retorted somewhat angrily: "Dad, why do you say that? How could I go out to cause trouble?"
"Dad, what did the third child say about the difficulty?" Tian Huaide asked carefully, and Mrs. Chen looked at the old man expectantly.
The old man glanced at his eldest son who was full of anxiety, sighed and said: "Boss, dad is scared. Your temperament is really not suitable for being in the officialdom. I have also thought about it. It doesn't matter if you don't become an official.
I am also going to be a grandfather, so I might as well do some light things to take care of my grandson."
"Dad..." Tian Huaide was shocked.
"Lao San and the others said that they will go to Kyoto another day. The land in this village will definitely be leased out, and someone will have to help take care of it. Boss, if you can't do it next to me, it shouldn't be bad if you calculate the account. What Lao San means is
Are you willing to take care of this matter?" The old man said with a tired look on his face: "I have thought about it too. There are a lot of fields here in Lao San. Instead of letting others share the crops, we should share the crops. If we don't have enough manpower, just ask
I am a long-term and part-time worker, a cook or something. Once I have enough income, I can also buy some land, so I don’t have to worry about food and drink as a small landowner."
When Tian Huaixiao heard something was wrong, he opened his eyes wide and asked anxiously: "Dad, what are you talking about? You said we won't go to Kyoto?"
"Dad, the third child and the others are really so heartless that the rich will not recognize the poor brothers?" Mrs. Li also became anxious and yelled.
"Shut up." The old man looked at the two couples with disgust and snorted coldly: "What kind of place is Kyoto? With your virtues, what can you do? Are you flirting with each other all day long? Who are you going to bump into?
I see you have a few missions."
"Dad! You were deceived by the third child." Tian Huaixiao said with a thump on his voice: "The third child and the others are the earls of Zhong County, Yan Yatou is the county king, and there is Prince Xian protecting them, who dares to bully them? The third child
He said it was so scary because he didn't take us there on purpose."
"Let me tell you, the third child and his family are all very cunning." Mrs. Li snorted.
"Second brother, don't say anything about the third child. You know your temper even if you don't tell me." The old man tilted his head at Tian Huaixiao and said, "To be rich, you must have a life to enjoy it. You must make a fuss about it.
Dad won't stop you from going to Kyoto, but if you break away from your clan and go out, you won't have to bring trouble to the Tian family."
"Dad." Tian Huaixiao looked at the old man in disbelief. Seeing that his face was stern and he didn't mean to be joking at all, he couldn't help but feel a little stupid.
"Dad is still saying the same thing. We can rent the farmland of the third family as tenants. As long as we work harder, we can live a good life. Also, when spring comes, we will send Golden Egg and Gou Sheng to school. Dad will live a good life in a few years.
In the future, if your family is separated, you will still need someone to support the family. These children cannot be delayed." The old man said lightly: "The eldest brother is counting on Brother Lin now. As for the second brother, Sanlang is also in the third brother's shop.
He has done well, and the third child also said that in a few days, he will be transferred to be a small manager."
Tian Huaide heard that something was wrong. The old man's words seemed to be explaining the funeral arrangements. He couldn't help but panic and said: "Dad, you are still strong, so..."
The old man lit the dry cigarette in his hand, took a puff, looked at his children and grandchildren through the smoke, sighed, and said: "Dad is old, you can still plan a little bit, but in the future, when dad is gone, all you can do is
It’s up to you.”
"Dad!" Tian Huaixiao pursed his lips and asked, "The third child really doesn't care whether we live or die?"
"Don't think about those who have some and don't have them. As the same saying goes, wealth and honor must also be enjoyed with life." The old man looked at him and said: "Young man, you should also be honest. Sanlang is a filial man, short-term."
I can’t afford your food or drink.”
When Tian Huaixiao heard this, he knew that the third child really would not take them to Kyoto. He looked at the old man and Tian Huaide again, snorted heavily, flung his sleeves and walked out. Seeing this, Mrs. Li also followed.
The old man looked at their backs and couldn't help but shook his head. What he was most worried about was the second family and his family. Fortunately, Sanlang had been with the third family for a long time, and he was doing well now. In the future, the second family would be relying on Sanlang.
, as for the big room?
The old man looked at Tian Huaide and Mrs. Chen again, and then thought about the shrewd grandson's daughter-in-law. If she could control her, her life would not be too bad.
"You guys should go and think about what I say, how to live a better life. Boss, you have read more books than the third child. The third child's family had nothing at the beginning. Today, they have earned everything by themselves.
"Yes." The old man let out a long breath.
"Dad, I understand." Tian Huaide lowered his head and responded weakly.
When the main room became quiet, Jiang couldn't help but said: "What is going on? Is the third child really leaving us to enjoy wealth alone?"
"Don't listen to what Da Ya said. If you want to go to Kyoto, no one will stop you. The third child also said that as long as we go, we will go together. Even if we don't go, we won't be able to eat or drink.
If we don’t provide the second bedroom, the third child will also provide for us.”
"That's alright. What's the big deal with taking them with you? How many mouthfuls of food can you still miss? Da Ya said that if we go to Kyoto, we might be able to arrange a good marriage for the two girls Wen Ru." Jiang
Shi hummed, "I'll go talk to the third child, I don't believe he doesn't listen to his mother."
"You've made a mistake again, haven't you? I told you to go, no one stopped you, just go by yourself. If you go and say it, you've lost all the affection, and I'll ignore you." The old man knocked.
He knocked on the Kang table and said angrily: "Tell Da Ya to live your life honestly and don't mess around."
"You, you damn old man, who are you angry at..." Jiang was scolded angrily when he shouted at her.
When the old man heard her scolding, he glared fiercely, got off the bed, put on his shoes and walked out.
In the north room, Tian Huaixiao sat on the kang with a gloomy face, his eyes full of unwillingness and resentment.
Li Shi cursed and said in a sharp voice: "Dad, if the old man said this, he wouldn't let us go to Kyoto? I must say, the old man looks down on people too much. The boss is his eyeball, and the third child is his eyeball.
It’s also rich, but our second room is made of mud.”
When Li said this, the frown on Tian Huaixiao's face became heavier, and he snorted coldly: "The old man's bias has gone to the creaking nest. Since he was a child, he has been partial to the eldest brother. Now that the third child is well, he is also partial to the third child.
Looking at the boss, he completely forgot that I am also his son."
"No." Li agreed and asked, "Dad, what should we do now? Just forget it?"
"Forget it? No way, it won't be easy for me, and it won't be easy for everyone."
"Yes, Dad, they are too bullying. They think we have no one in the second room." Erlang also jumped up.
Ding's eyes rolled around, took Erlang's hand and said to Tian Huaixiao: "Dad, actually it's okay not to go to Kyoto. The rules in Kyoto are very strict. You have to kneel down to salute when you see noble people. You said something wrong.
I'm going to behead you. Didn't the old man just say that you want to rent the third uncle's land? In fact, there are many people in our house, and we all work hard. Even if we live alone, it is not worse than a big house. If the third uncle goes to Kyoto
, their house is now vacant. Dad, if we live in it, then..."
"That's right! Dad, this Kyoto is good, but there are too many rules. If you go to Kyoto and just look at the eyes of the third child and others, how can you be as good as being the master of your own country?" Li was so impressed by Ding.
As soon as he was reminded, his eyes lit up and he said: "I see that Erlang's wife is right. The third son and the others went to Kyoto, and the house is empty. Let's move in and live in a big house."
Mrs. Ding closed her eyes and pressed her left hand on her waist. There was a gold bracelet hidden there, which was given to her by Tian Minyan's Qian'er, asking her to mention her parents-in-law if necessary. Although Mrs. Ding also wanted to go to Kyoto with her
, but I also know that Tian Minyan will not agree, and she is not easy to get along with, so it is better to sell it well. According to Tian Minyan's wish, they will divide the house and live alone. They will have land and land to be a young lady, and they will not lack food and drink.
"Split the family?" Tian Huaixiao raised his eyebrows.
"That's right." The more Li thought about it, the more feasible it became, and she said, "Think about it, there is no hope of going to Kyoto now. There is no separate family to work together now. All the work here is done by our second room, and the big room has
With a few laborers, we will suffer a big loss. If the family is divided, the old man and the others will follow the eldest brother, whose shoulders cannot be lifted. Brother Lin is studying again, and his wife has a dowry. If they don’t have to worry about food and drink, what else can they farm?
If we move to the town, we'll live in the third brother's house, rent the third brother's land, hire long-term workers, and live comfortably as a master and his wife."
Tian Huaixiao thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "That's right. Now Dafang doesn't stir up trouble at all. Brother Lin is just studying, and Dafang has no time to do anything. Yes, this family must score."
"Dad, even if we separate our families, we have to work together to fight for more." Ding took the opportunity to say: "For example, the third uncle's house."
"Yes, Lao San's house is really nice and very warm." Mrs. Li also said.
Tian Huaixiao's eyes narrowed, it was time to conspire.
In the east wing, Tian Huaide looked gloomy and sighed several times.
Mrs. Chen handed over a cup of tea and said, "Don't even think about it. Dad said so. It will definitely not work."
"Why don't you think Lao San and the others won't help with this? Isn't it just a matter of words?" Tian Huaide said very depressedly.
"Dad, needless to say, people are afraid that we will stick to her golden chaff. I feel sick when I look at Tian Minyan's proud face. I don't see how proud she can be." Tian Minting said viciously: "She is the only one in Kyoto.
He's such a country bumpkin, he might just stay there for two days and come back crying."
"Ting'er, don't talk nonsense, you forgot those two slaps." Mrs. Chen scolded.
Tian Minyan's expression changed, she touched her face, her eyes became even more vicious, and she said in a sharp voice: "I want to say that she won't have an easy time. She is such a vicious country bumpkin, she dares to hit me with all her airs."
"You girl, what do you want me to say?" Mrs. Chen went over and hugged her and said, "Just bear with it. Now that Yan Yatou is the county magistrate, beating you will be light. If she says something bad about you, you
Are you going to talk about marriage in the future?"
"How dare she!" Tian Minting's eyes narrowed and she said bitterly: "Why didn't you drown that bumpkin before?"
Mrs. Chen sighed, her eyes a little misty. What would have happened if Tian Minyan had obediently married into Tan Zhisheng's family? This person has his own destiny, it's true. In just two years, the three-bedroom family will be big.
However, their most beautiful room ended up in a miserable state.
But now is not the time to talk about this. She looked at Tian Huaide and asked: "Master, what should I do now? I see what the master means, and I'm afraid that the family will be separated soon. We don't have two people working in this house. Master, what can you do?"
It has to be totaled."
Tian Huaide was stunned and said, "Split the family?" Then he shook his head and said, "No, what dad regrets most now is that he split the family in the first place, and he won't do it."
Mrs. Chen was speechless at her husband's attitude. She thought for a while and said, "If we really break up, so what?"
"It would be better if we separate. Let's move to the town with my elder brother and sister-in-law. I won't live with cow dung and chicken dung all day again." Tian Minting snorted coldly. The more she thought about it, the more she thought it would be better to separate the family, so she said: "Dad,
Let grandpa separate the family. How will I get married as a village girl? Look at my hands, who likes a village girl?"
Ma raised her eyelids, a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes, thinking that with this sister-in-law's temperament, could she still want to be a relative of the emperor?
"Sir, if we don't want to separate, what about the second wife? If they are willing, I think the second wife will definitely bring it up." Mrs. Chen pursed her lips and said: "If we really want to separate the family, we can take advantage of the fact that the third brother and his family are still here.
You have to make a good calculation."
The separation of the family is inevitable. While the third brother and his family are here, we have to think carefully about how to divide the family and how to get more benefits. Well, if it is separated, their eldest family may do some business with the third brother.
He can also turn over.
