The dumplings were cooked quickly, and the four of them ate in the courtyard. Eating dumplings on such a hot day was both enjoyment and suffering.
"It's really delicious. It's very different from what we have here." Tao Zisheng said with a smile.
After the meal, Chen Miao said something and left. Knowing that Tan Rongtian was coming, he must have something to say.
After returning to the yard, I went into the space to watch the Tan family lively.
She arrived just in time. The entire Tan family was now gathered in the hall. Tan Rongtian was the target of the crusade.
"Grandpa, Feng Cai went to the dock today and actually said that my elder brother agreed to sell the oil to him. At that price, we lost a lot of money."
The eldest son of the second eldest son of the Tan family, who is also the eldest cousin of Tan Rongtian's second uncle, said angrily.
Mr. Tan's face is not good-looking. Those are all the assets of the family. If there is something wrong with him, the Tan family will really be doomed.
Everyone in the Tan family knows it, so they are all gathered here.
The eldest grandson is really useless, he is so ambitious, it can be said that he has achieved nothing.
"Grandpa, my eldest brother is always like this and will kill everyone in our family, but we don't want to die with him.
Feng Cai has set his sights on our batch of oil, and even if someone wants to take over, he is not willing to go against him. It is impossible for us to ship it."
Several Tan brothers said angrily that Tan Rongtian wanted them to be buried with him.
Mr. Tan also knows that no one dares to take over this batch of goods, and he is also anxious about what to do. He has already thought about it and will never do such large-scale transactions in the future.
"Grandpa, you should find a way to keep it in the dock warehouse and pay a lot of rent every day. By then, the oil will not be ours."
Mr. Tan looked at his three sons and five grandchildren below. He sighed heavily and said, "The oil in the warehouse is divided into four parts. I will take one share, and each of you three brothers will take one share."
Everyone understands that this is equivalent to a family separation.
Except for the eldest brother, Tan Rongtian, who had no objections to his father, the rest of the Tan family were unwilling.
"Grandpa, it was my eldest brother who caused so much loss at home last time. Now that the family is like this, do you want him to share the same amount as us?
Last time, he vowed that everything would be fine if he followed the little devil. We all objected, but he still insisted on having his own way, and all the valuable things in the family were given away to others.
We are still opposed to this batch of oil. Grandpa, just listen to him and buy this batch of oil.
Now that we are being restricted, not only can we not make a penny, but we also have to lose money? Is there anyone doing business like this?"
Tan Rongtian quit. "Isn't it also for the betterment of my family?"
The second child sneered. "Stop talking so high-sounding. Are you just trying to be an official? Just do it if you have the ability. Don't use all of us to pave the way for you."
Chen Miao looked at Mr. Tan with a very ugly expression. He knew that his sons and grandsons also had opinions about him, and such a thing would not have happened without his consent.
"Grandpa, we don't agree to give it to the uncle. How much money has the family spent over the years? We said it was for the good of the family once or twice. How many times has it happened? Our objections have no effect.
The family has been in decline for so many years because father, son, grandfather, are all your sons and grandsons, is this really okay?"
Mr. Tan closed his eyes. He had always been afraid of such a day, but this day has really come.
Of course Tan Rongtian didn't want to. "Grandpa, we are all doing this for the good of our family."
Mr. Tan waved his hand. "Okay, then divide it into three parts, one for me, and one for each of the remaining two and three. You should contact the buyer quickly."
"Grandpa!" Tan Rongtian was really anxious.
"Stop talking, that's the decision. Now you can think of a way to open the warehouse and divide it tomorrow."
"Dad, don't forget tomorrow, let's do it tonight. The night is long and there are many dreams."
The old man knew that the second and third sons had already discussed it, but even if he knew, he couldn't say anything. Anyway, in the end, if the money was not lost, it would be fine with the Tan family.
The other two families have left. The old man also sent the housekeeper to pull the goods. The other two sons will never bring the oil to the house. His will definitely be at home and find someone to sell it tomorrow.
Only Tan Rongtian, his son and the old man were left in the living room. The eldest son of the Tan family, who had been silent all this time, stood up and left without saying a word.
Tan Rongtian looked at the old man. "Grandpa, what will I do in the future? Although everything I do is not successful, it is all for the Tan family, why do you still treat me like this?"
"Rongtian, nothing will belong to you in the family from now on. Your other uncles and brothers will not agree."
"Why don't they agree? This family belongs to grandpa."
Mr. Tan shook his head. "It belongs to me and to everyone in the Tan family. You know how much money you have taken away from the family over the years. This is enough to make others sorry. You can figure out your own solution in the future."
After the goods are sold, they will be separated. Look at the situation. You still won't get anything. I know you have a house outside, so you won't end up living on the street.
Rongtian, no matter what you do in the future, you must be down-to-earth and don’t be too whimsical."
Mr. Tan really feels very tired. He is getting older, and only now can he realize that it is definitely not possible to rely on the two of them in the future. It is better not to chill the hearts of other sons and grandsons.
Tan Rongtian's face was very ugly. He knew that he would not be in this family anymore. He turned around and left angrily. He no longer had the respect he had for the old man before.
Mr. Tan sighed heavily. Fortunately, he did not have his own way and still faced his eldest grandson. In this way, if you want to count on him in the future? It seems that you really can't count on him.
Chen Miaoxin said that it was true that the more an old man favored someone, the more likely he would be treated badly by someone in the future.
She followed him to watch Tan Rongtian's excitement. In her heart, people like him would definitely not end well.
Regardless of whether they are men or women, as long as they do something that is disgraceful to their family, their future lives will definitely not be good.
Following him into his yard, he saw Du Meijiao holding a child who was not very clean. Now that there were no servants at home, she had to look after the child by herself. She was very irritable now.
Tan Rongtian frowned when he looked at her. The woman she was now was no longer the sweet-tempered woman she had been before.
"Rongtian, do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you?"
We still have to please this man. Although the Tan family is not good now, as long as the man has the ability, he will definitely be able to live a good life in the future.
"Yeah. Go ahead."
"Then look at my daughter for a while. This girl is too annoying."
Tan Rongtian looked at his daughter on the bed, and there was really nothing like him.
