Captain Tian in the yard said: "Girl, the Zhu family is a good family. The second son is over two years old and can hold up the family. He looks much stronger than their eldest son."
The captain's wife then said: "We can still pick and choose between looking for husband's family, but when it comes to recruiting relatives, if it weren't for a year like this, how could the Zhu family's children be recruited? He lives in the same village and knows everything. This child is not greedy.
He's not lazy. He looks thin now, but he won't be worse than Mr. Zhu in two years."
Captain Tian glanced at his wife, then stared at Tian Tian and said: "It's still two years before we get married. We can wait a little longer."
Yes, now she is meat on the chopping board. Everyone who sees her wants to take a bite of her. She cannot avoid getting engaged, but getting married is still a long time away.
Tian Ye glanced into the room and saw Zhu Laoer standing lonely in the corner, and suddenly felt a little soft-hearted. If he disagreed, it would hurt the child's face too much. This kid had a hard time in the Zhu family.
The most important thing is that I really don’t want to live up to Boss Zhu’s reputation and let myself always be the one taking orders.
God knows how uncomfortable and panicked she would be every time she told Boss Zhu that she was still the blind one who fell in love with this idiot.
At the beginning, I had promised that the marriage would be entirely up to the captain, but suddenly I didn't want to, and I couldn't justify it.
Moreover, Captain Tian is right, Zhu Lao Er is young and it is still early to get married. It is safer than getting engaged to Zhu Lao Er.
After thinking about it again and again, I closed my eyes and thought cruelly, I would just raise one more child, which is about five hundred kilograms of grain.
Tian Tian: “I listen to my uncle and aunt.”
The captain's wife had a look of comfort on her face, she just needs to listen to the advice. After contacting him in the past two days, the captain's wife really looked down on Mr. Zhu, whether he was responsible or not, whether he was capable or not, he was nothing.
Captain Tian led people into the house. He did not immediately say that Tian Tian was happy, but asked the Zhu family first.
He didn't say it carelessly: "Brother, the children are young. We have made it clear what the rules are in front of the children. If the children all nod, we will pick a good day to have wine and raise our son."
It’s not easy, please tell me the conditions first.”
Zhu Tiezhu didn't say a word. Aunt Zhu said with a stiff face and drooped eyelids: "The captain also said that raising children is not easy. If you go to help someone else's family, I will give you the 500 kilograms of grain I agreed to give as a gift."
Aunt Zhu, who spoke from beginning to end, never raised her eyes to glance at Zhu Laoer, or anyone else.
Tian Ye thought that this woman also knew that selling her son would not look good. But she just said these words, which would hurt the child's heart. He couldn't help but glance at Zhu Lao'er. It was an unlucky child to meet such a mother.
Zhu Laoer's hand was full of veins, his eye circles were red, his face was livid, and his slim figure was getting thinner and thinner.
Tian Xiaowu hid in the west room and shed tears for Zhu Laoer. Tian Xiaowu understood best how much Zhu Laoer valued his family, how much he cared about his parents' usual attitudes, and how much he suffered in the Zhu family.
Zhu Tiezhu finally spoke: "No, we are not selling our son. Three hundred catties of grain is enough. We will give you two hundred catties for the engagement and one hundred catties when we get married."
This is really not much. There are only this number of eldest girls in the village who are engaged, and the Zhu family gave them sons. Zhu Tiezhu is considered a man when he talks like this.
Aunt Zhu's face changed, and she was obviously unwilling. However, Zhu Tiezhu was there to restrain her and she did not dare to snort. It was like this in the village. Men made the decision and women had no say.
Captain Tian: "If there are no other conditions, let the girl talk about it."
Tian Ye doesn't mind helping others raise their children for two years. In a few years, when they are older, the environment will be much more relaxed, and the impact of the divorce will not have much impact on both of them.
Just think of it as using a few hundred kilograms of grain to find a backer to temporarily contain Captain Tian. The Zhu family is on par with the Tian family in the village and can contain him.
But just the same, you can't get entangled with your best relatives because of this, and you can't keep yourself in check by trying to keep others in check.
Taking a look at poor Zhu Lao Er, it can be regarded as doing Zhu Lao Er a favor, so that disgusting elder brothers like Zhu Lao Er will not be held back in the future, and at the same time, he can recognize his status in the family.
It would be better if the Zhu family regretted the marriage because of the harsh conditions.
After making up his mind, Tian Tian spoke in a very organized manner: "To live in our family, we have to change our surname to Tian. I should be filial to you, but you can't be the same as the son who stayed at home. During the New Year and holidays, we worship the ancestors of our Lao Tian family."
Captain Tian's eyes were gloomy. These words were not something a wild girl could say. Could it be that he had lost his sight and didn't see clearly.
Tian Xiaowu was angry outside for Zhu Lao Er. Before they even got married, this girl took advantage of their second son and asked, "Are you such a bully?" With just one sentence, the captain's wife shut her mouth and went to the house.
Because Captain Tian was worried about his son getting involved, the idea that came up was gone. After so many days of commotion, someone must have told the girl about the marriage proposal. No matter how stupid the girl is, she can learn a few words.
Zhu Laoer pursed his lips, not looking at the field, but staring at the old Zhu family. If he nodded now, then he would no longer be a child of the old Zhu family.
Aunt Zhu did not put the man in a difficult position, and nodded in agreement: "This is how marriages are recruited in the village, as it should be."
Zhu Laoer's head was buzzing. This was definitely not his biological mother, but she was so willing to give up.
Tian Ye couldn't help but glance at Zhu Laoer again. The child must have felt uncomfortable. Aunt Zhu's calmness would be really admirable if she didn't have to sell her son anymore.
But you can't involve yourself out of sympathy. You have to say what you need to say, and say it cruelly: "Then there is only one thing left. The village says that I suppress my father and my mother. After the marriage is decided, you can't blame me for suppressing anything in your family. That is
Whatever happens to Zhu Laoer in the future, he can't do it to me."
Tian Tian's question was so heartbreaking. If he agreed, the Zhu family would have given Zhu Lao Er's life to Tian Tian.
Zhu Laoer's breathing became tight. He didn't believe this, but he knew that his mother believed this. If her mother agreed, she didn't care about his life or death at all.
The wild girl next door is just an irrelevant outsider to him. He doesn't care no matter what, but his mother is his dear. Although she raised him carelessly, she has raised him for more than ten years anyway. She is so cruel.
Don't you care about his life or death?
Zhu Laoer's eyes were fixed on Aunt Zhu, as if Aunt Zhu's words could determine his life or death.
Aunt Zhu finally glanced at her son, but nodded: "We don't believe this, and we don't blame you. It's our fate."
She spoke steadily, without even fighting her lips. Aunt Zhu opened and closed her mouth, and Zhu Laoer could see it clearly.
Zhu Laoer's shoulders were drooped, and he looked decadent. What else was he looking forward to? If he really cared about himself, could he still allow himself to recruit others?
On such a hot day, his heart felt as cold as an ice cellar. In the past, he thought that being hungry was the most uncomfortable thing, but it turns out that there are other things that are more uncomfortable than being hungry.
At such a moment, Zhu Laoer actually smiled, a bit evilly.
