As soon as Mr. Tian finished speaking, almost everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief. Only the eldest family members were as wilted as eggplants beaten by frost. Where is the joy from just now?
"Boss, it's not easy for both of your brothers. The last thing we farmers can do is forget our roots." Mr. Tian looked at Tian Huaide and said: "Besides, several brothers have gone over. If there is anyone who can help, it's better than
One person is hit by a black mark."
Tian Huaide responded nonchalantly: "That's what dad said. I thought so too, but I just thought that the courtyard assigned to me by the county government was not big, so..."
"As for you saying that the courtyard over there is small, that's not a problem. We can live there no matter how we usually live. The key is that our family will not be separated." Mr. Tian picked up the cigarette again, took a puff and looked at Tian Huaixiao.
He said: "I'm just the second child. When you get to Henghe, you will obey your elder brother in everything. He will obey his instructions and restrain the younger ones. Don't do anything wrong and cause trouble for your brother."
"Dad, I know the importance!" Tian Huaixiao had received the old man's promise, so he didn't think so much. He was smiling brightly, and even if he was asked to kneel down and pretend to bark like a dog, he would probably do it.
Tian Minyan couldn't help but feel happy. She finally waited for this opportunity, so she pushed Tian Huairen's arm behind him and whispered in his ear: "Dad, let's not go. Let's separate."
Tian Huairen moved his lips, but did not make a sound. Tian Minyan was so anxious that she pushed again.
"Grandpa, my father has something to say."
Seeing that Tian Huairen still remained silent, Tian Minyan was so angry that she had no choice but to speak loudly.
"Lao San, what do you think?" Mr. Tian looked over.
Tian Huairen stood up suddenly, his face flushed, and his daughter pinched him from behind again, so he had to take two steps forward and muttered: "Dad, dad, I don't want to go."
"What?" Mr. Tian sat up straight, and even Mr. Jiang looked at him.
"I, our third bedroom will not follow my eldest brother to take office." Tian Huairen finished in one breath.
"Third brother, what's going on? The eldest brother didn't say he wouldn't take your family with him." Tian Huaide came down from the kang, walked up to Tian Huairen, patted his shoulder and said, "Eldest brother knows that you are a trouble-free person, but the third brother,
We came from the same intestine, so how could you be left behind when I become the eldest brother? The yard is a bit small, and we, as a family, can squeeze in and squeeze in."
Tian Huaide's words were beautiful and benevolent. In fact, he was telling everyone that the courtyard in Henghe was really too small to live in. Unfortunately, the people who should listen only looked at the high beams on the house and pretended not to hear.
I saw it out of the corner of my eye and couldn't help but feel angry.
"Third brother, the boss is right. He has not failed you, so you can just wait peacefully." Mr. Tian also said.
"That's right, Third Brother. It's a county after all. The ground is yellow and white, which is incomparable to this remote country. Listen to the second brother and wait for the blessing of becoming the third master." Tian Huaixiao heard this this time and persuaded with a smile.
.
Mrs. Chen's face darkened after hearing this, and the cotton handkerchief in her hand was twisted into a pickle shape. She pursed her lips and dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. Even Tian Minzhuang did the same. He slapped away the flattering Tian Minqing beside him, and his eyebrows stood up.
Got up.
"No, no." Tian Huairen waved his hands quickly, looked at the old man sitting cross-legged on the kang and said, "Dad, the eldest brother also has his difficulties. There are many people in the county government office and there are few houses to live in. We can still make room for one less person.
Having some space will save my brother the trouble."
"Lao San, you..." Tian Huaide looked like he was moved to tears. He patted Tian Huairen on the shoulder and said, "Lao San, your good brother will always be remembered."
Mr. Tian frowned tightly and seemed unmoved.
"Grandpa, it's okay if the third uncle doesn't go. Our whole family has gone to Henghe. No one is here. Who will guard the old house? The third uncle doesn't like the county. He is probably used to staying in Yangmei Village, so the third uncle won't go.
, Tianli, the old house happened to be entrusted to my third uncle." Tian Minzhuang laughed.
Tian Minyan almost didn't roar, "You really made a good plan. The two-room people went to enjoy the blessings of being city dwellers, while the three-room people are working hard to cultivate the fields for you? And then you came back to pick up the ready-made ones when you were destitute? No way."
!
Tian Huairen, who was still willing to count money for fear that he would be betrayed by others, followed Tian Minzhuang's words. Tian Minyan immediately said: "What did eldest sister say? Who doesn't want to enjoy the blessing of being a eldest lady and a gentleman? We don't want to let the uncle
I don’t want to go because I’m embarrassed. But the eldest sister said that she would entrust all the fields to our third bedroom. What’s the point of this? Could it be that we are just servants?”
"Who thinks you are servants? Your father can't say that. Oh, I bet you are just pretending and doing that. Oh, you are retreating in order to advance. In fact, you are just like that shameless person who wants to make us happy.
Let’s go and enjoy the thighs of the house, right?” Tian Minzhuang looked disdainful.
"Girl Zhuang, who are you talking about being shameless?" Tian Huaixiao immediately glared at her.
"There are some people." Tian Minzhuang snorted.
Tian Minqing, who was sitting next to her, had an angry look on her face, but she didn't dare to refute, so she just sat a little further away.
"Brother, let me tell you, Miss Zhuang is going to be the one to marry, and she is going to be an official lady soon. She still doesn't know the etiquette. If word spreads that she contradicts her elders, it will not look good on my brother's reputation." Tian Huaixiao sneered.
He glanced at her and only looked at Tian Huaide and said.
"Second uncle, who do you think contradicted the elders?" Tian Minzhuang stood up abruptly, his eyes widened.
"Zhuang'er, don't be rude." When Mrs. Chen saw Tian Huaide's face sinking, she shouted sharply, looking like a standard official wife.
"Mother..." Tian Minzhuang was indignant. Seeing Mrs. Chen's eyes, he bit his lip and sat back bitterly. Seeing Tian Minqing flattering her again, he gave her a hard look.
Tian Minyan was happy to see that the bad news had changed, and she only reminded her father softly: "Dad, let's talk about business."
"Oh, oh." Tian Huairen scratched his head and bravely faced Mr. Tian's gaze in the eager eyes of his daughter and son: "Dad, we are not going to the third house. The eldest brother has become successful. I am happy for him. The second brother and the
It’s okay to go. Dad, while, while my eldest brother is going back to become an official, I...I want...I want to separate and live alone."
"What?" Mr. Tian was startled. He couldn't hold the pipe tightly and fell down. He stared at his honest and taciturn son with wide eyes: "Third brother, what are you talking about?"
The words had been spoken, and there was no reason to take them back. Tian Huairen gritted his teeth and said loudly: "I said, if our third brother doesn't take office with the eldest brother, we will live separately."
Mr. Tian sat back and looked at the third son with straight eyes, as if in disbelief. His lips murmured, and after a long time he said: "You, you mean you want to separate the family?"
