In fact, what Gongyue wanted to ask was whether the uncle's family would come to the county to beat them.
Seeing the anxious expressions of his younger brothers and sisters, Gong Jian quickly reassured them, "You don't have to worry, things haven't reached that point of no return yet."
Then Gong Jian patiently analyzed with them the current family situation of the eldest uncle's family: "I estimate that the eldest uncle's family has not saved much money in previous years. I don't know whether it is really almost spent, or whether the uncle is aware of it.
His younger son is a bottomless pit. Therefore, in the past six months, he has slowly reduced the number of times he sends money to his younger son.
But no matter what, the uncle's family still has a lot of land. They just rent the land to the villagers. The annual rent and food can barely cover the needs of the uncle's family. It may not be said that they are rich.
But food and clothing should be no problem."
After listening to their elder brother's analysis, Gong Yu and Gong Yue felt relieved. Also, their grandparents had saved a lot of land. Although it was not as good as the landowners in the village, that was not because of the large population in the family.
If the two brothers had divided it equally, the land at home would not have been so conspicuous. But my uncle was like that. He took most of the fertile farmland in the family for himself and only gave Gong Jian's parents two acres of barren dry land.
In fact, at that time, the land owned by the uncle's family was comparable to that of the landowners in the village. However, their family was lazy and unwilling to cultivate the land themselves. Even hiring people would worry them.
So the uncle simply rented the land to other families in the village for farming. They only received rent and a certain amount of grain.
Now the brothers and sisters are very emotional. Fortunately, they did this, so the land at home has never been sold. Instead, the rent and food are enough to feed the uncle and his family for a year, so they don't have to worry about their food and clothing.
Without the time crunch as a factor, Gong Yu and Gong Yue were relieved. The three of them even discussed the specific operations of this matter. They put it down first. After all, Gong Jian now
We haven't passed the child examination yet, so it's too early to talk about these things.
The uncle's family they had been talking about had been having a hard time in the years after the new year.
Not to mention Uncle Gong Jian and his mother-in-law, because they knocked over the bottle of fairy wine, they were drunk from the night of New Year's Eve until the second day of the Lunar New Year.
It was then that the eldest brother and sister-in-law of Gong Jianbo's mother-in-law broke into the house to visit the two of them. They were rescued and sent to the doctor. After they were warmed and took medicine, the two were finally out of danger.
But even when they were recuperating, they did not calm down. The couple hated each other, and they both felt that the other party had broken the precious bottle of immortal drunken wine worth fifty taels of silver, causing them to miss such a thing in vain.
Opportunity to make a fortune.
When Uncle Gong Jian thought of that incident, he felt heartbroken. It was a bottle of precious fairy wine that he finally got from Gong Jian's house.
You must know that their brother's family is not like before. For more than a year, they have not been able to take any advantage from that family.
As Gong Jian's family promoted the method of breeding rabbits in the village, the couple now used a disapproving way of saying something harsh about Gong Jian's family in front of other people in the village.
While watching, many people would stop him and refute what he said.
All this made Uncle Gong Jian feel very uncomfortable. He had always been aloof, so why did he feel that his brother's family had turned around and pressured him in more than a year?
He said that his brother, who looked honest on the outside, was actually the most cunning in his heart. If he hadn't been careful when the family was separated and kicked them out early, this brother would have
He trampled his whole family under his feet.
He had already seen clearly that he did not dare to ask for a brother who was determined to trample his own family. But even though he had made such preparations, he could not stop this black-hearted brother. Over the past year or so,
The better it gets, the better. Now it has the potential to suppress me. These things have been worrying Uncle Gong Jian for a long time.
With great difficulty, he took advantage of the chaos on New Year's Eve to take that bottle of divine drunkenness home from his shrewd and capable nephew. It's ridiculous that the pretentious guy kept asking him to talk about the past.
Uncle Gong Jian was too lazy to deal with this black-hearted brother. If he had died of illness that year, he might still have some feelings in his heart.
Now there is no door, so his son is allowed to do all kinds of things, live a better life than his own, and at the same time he has a good reputation, and everyone praises him. He takes advantage of everything. Until he took that bottle of immortal drunkenness, Gong Jian
The uncle felt a little calmer.
Uncle Gong Jian thought that this year would be a good start and he would be able to make a fortune. What was even more happy was that the money was obtained from Gong Jian's family for free. He thought that this was a good sign, indicating that they would be able to make a lot of money from Gong Jian's family in the future.
More money.
He secretly thought in his heart that one day, he would want his brother and his family to crawl at his feet. But what Uncle Gong Jian didn't expect was that in the blink of an eye, he would be defeated by his stupid wife.
Already.
While he was recuperating, Uncle Gong Jian felt his anger rising when he thought about this incident. In addition, there were only two pills at home, and after boiling them several times, the effect of the medicine had completely disappeared.
Uncle Gong Jian was reluctant to spend money and go to the drug store to buy medicine. Therefore, the couple had to slowly recover from the disease. The condition continued until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
I have not fully recovered from my illness.
The two of them could only live at home reluctantly and had no energy to go out and wander around the village, so they didn't know that Gong Jian's family had already moved away from this small mountain village and was getting further and further away from them.
I wonder if Uncle Gong Jian is thinking that his brother, who has always wanted to suppress him, will feel at ease after moving away? No one except himself can know this.
Compared with Uncle Gong Jian's simple distress, Uncle Gong Jian's thoughts are much more complicated. When she thinks of all the money flying away, she has to work hard to find ways to collect money. Thinking about how to save it,
Gong Jian felt a headache because of the money her youngest son used to make clothes and the subsidies she secretly gave to her family. (To be continued)
