Seeing that Xiao Taohua was coaxed, Tian Huaixiao heaved a sigh of relief, only then did he feel a burning pain on his face, and when he raised his hand, it was also a red pain.

This damn iron egg, what a motherfucker!

"I don't care, you must get the money tonight, or I won't accept it." Xiao Taohua stared at Tian Huaixiao with tears in her eyes, and said, "Let's leave tomorrow, I won't come to this poor place from now on. "

"Chengcheng, everything depends on you, everything depends on you, baby, don't be angry, ah." Tian Huaixiao wiped away the tears from her face, and coaxed: "Why do you say something, what kind of grapes are so sour? "

"You're the one who is so stupid that you can't eat the grapes and say the grapes are sour." Xiao Taohua said angrily.

"Yes, that's right. They are just talking nonsense because they are jealous. Don't worry, you don't know what kind of person you are? They are just envious of us and just say that sour thing. It's not worthwhile for you to be angry. .”

Xiao Taohua snorted and sniffed, but she was not as angry as before, she just said: "Anyway, I don't care, I don't want to stay in this place anymore, let's go back to Henghe early."

"Sure, you can do whatever you say." Tian Huaixiao didn't respond, and said again: "Oh, I was beaten hard by that Wang Tiedan just now, rub it for me."

"It's useless." Even though Xiao Taohua said so, she obediently untied his clothes, touched his body with her little hands, just rubbed them, and they both fell down on the kang.

On the other side of the main room, Tian Huairen was talking to the old man.

"Now your elder brother has a bright future, and your family is better off. As for your second elder brother, alas, I'm afraid I owed it to him in my previous life, and I have to pay it back in this life." The old man took a puff of his pipe and said, "He's simple-minded. , It’s really impossible to look less at all. In Henghe, I was worried that he would cause trouble for your elder brother. What happened? For such a woman, a big joke was made, and everyone knew it. Your brother Everyone's faces turned yellow from laughing."

"Your eldest brother and sister-in-law are quite soft-spoken, and they want your second brother's room to come back, but what can I do?" The old man sighed and said: "Over the past few years, in order to support your elder brother, I have wronged you , now that your elder brother has a future, and if your second brother does it again, I can't leave him behind, otherwise, this would be a matter of conscience and spinelessness. Besides, your second brother is not that easy to talk about. well."

Tian Huairen remained silent, and said for a long while: "Father, don't worry too much. After working hard for most of your life, enjoy yourself."

The old man snorted, and said: "Raising a child to be a hundred years old, often worrying about 99, this is the fate of being a parent!" He looked at the sky outside and said: "Why are you coming back now, go back to the field to work Go to work, no one is helping you run back. Don't worry, your second brother and the others, I will arrest him."

Tian Huairen nodded, comforted him, and walked out of the main room.

The sky was gradually slanting to the west, and seeing the sun was about to set, Tian Minyan and Luo Shi had dinner together. Because of the money added by Xiao Taohua, there was a lot of oil and water for this dinner, not to mention meat, there was also big bone soup .

After the shadow of the sun completely covered the other side of the mountain, the people who were helping in the fields came back. Uncle Qi was very happy to hear that the old man was back, and the two half-centenarians sat together and talked non-stop.

Tian Minyan's uncle and cousin also came to help grow potatoes, and it was very lively, so the old man asked Rui to buy two catties of Changbai Shao and said he wanted to eat two cups.

There were still two tables for dinner, one for the men, and another for the women and children. Tian Minyan originally thought that Xiao Taohua would not show up if she lost someone during the day, but who would have thought that she would appear at the dinner table as if nothing happened.

"Oh, this braised pork tastes really good, the third sibling is very good at cooking." Xiao Taohua picked up the plate of braised pork in front of her, and said as if probing or unintentionally: "After all, the third sibling, you have a good life in this house, Such a big plate of braised pork is not seen on Yokogawa's table."

With Jiang's temperament, even if he has money, he won't spend it too much.

The corners of Tian Minyan's lips twitched and said: "It's also because of your money, Auntie Xiaoer, otherwise we would still have pickled vegetables and radishes on the table. Otherwise, we would steam a plate of dried fish and shrimps sent over by Yokogawa." Yes, just make do with one meal. Xiao Wu, please thank Aunt Xiao Er quickly, otherwise we won’t have any meat to eat.”

"Thank you, Auntie Xiaoer, this meat is delicious." Xiao Wu grinned, revealing a small hole without a front tooth.

The smile on Xiao Taohua's face suddenly froze, and the meat in her mouth immediately became tasteless, seeing these children eating happily, and the sound of men shouting and drinking, she felt like eating her Meat drinks like her blood.

"Your uncle and I are just eating together, so there's no need to do so much." She laughed dryly.

"Big pot of vegetables, there's no reason to cook them separately. The second aunt said that it's not good to let you and the second uncle eat green vegetables, isn't it? Today's idea of ​​dishes doesn't cost much, which is about a dime. "Tian Minyan grinned: "It also makes Er Bo and you happy."

Pork is [-] to [-] cents a catty, and she bought a lot of it for everyone to fight teeth. Anyway, the money is not for nothing, and it is great to use other people's money to make up for everyone.

Xiao Taohua laughed dryly, secretly cursing the brat in her heart, she is as smart as an old fox.

The dinner was very lively, and the old man ate too much. He was helped by the younger generation to the kang, and he was still shouting that he was happy, and it would be enough to eat two more cups.

After the old man settled down, everyone dispersed, Xiao Taohua coughed at Tian Huaixiao, and pouted at Tian Huairen.

Tian Minyan looked at it, squinted her eyes, watched Tian Huaixiao walk up to Tian Huairen and hooked his shoulders and said, "Third brother, our brother hasn't chattered for a long time. Let's go, eat two more cups, we brothers said talk?"

Tian Huairen also ate a lot tonight, and was tired after working all day, he just wanted to take a shower and rest, so he said, "Second Brother, I'm drunk from eating too, how about changing tomorrow?"

"Are you still a man? You only had a few cups, so now that people call you the third master, they look down on your second brother and me?" Tian Huaixiao stared.

"No, how can there be?"

"Then have two more cups." Tian Huaixiao dragged him to the place where the meals were placed without saying a word.

Tian Minyan hurriedly called Xiao Wu, whispered a few words in his ear, Xiao Wu nodded, and ran over like flying.

Tian Minyan gritted her teeth, her eyes were sharp, this little Taohua and the second uncle had better not think of any bad ideas, otherwise, don't blame her for disregarding relatives.

In the front yard, Tian Huaixiao poured wine for Tian Huairen, poured it for himself, touched his cup and said, "My third brother, I respect you, drink it."

"Second brother, drink as much as you want, I really can't drink it anymore." Tian Huairen was very embarrassed.

"Third brother, it's been a long time since our brothers sat together. How come you look like a mother-in-law, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, you are not straightforward at all." Tian Huaixiao said dissatisfiedly: "It's not that you are the second brother, but you have to be a man." Get up, look at you, you already have some family background, why are you still like a soft root that gets under a woman's skirt, without any masculinity? It's too much to evade for a drink, are you still a man?"

Tian Huairen was a little unhappy when he heard this, but he didn't make a sound, he just took a sip of wine from the bowl.

Seeing this, Tian Huaixiao also knew that the third child had become stubborn, and his heart was so muddy that he couldn't support it, but he still said: "Cheng Cheng, the elder brother will not force you, it's up to you." Head up, drink all the wine in your own bowl.

He poured another bowl of wine, patted Tian Huairen on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Third brother, our family is not what it used to be now. Eldest brother has become an official and master, and your life is getting better. It's just me. , or Poppi Laisan."

"Second brother, you're doing really well, and you've got one more wife." Tian Huairen said flatly.

Tian Huaixiao laughed when he heard this, and said: "This man, three wives and four concubines are a matter of course. A big family doesn't have many concubines. I'm the only one. It's not a strange thing. Mr. Three, this man, how can he sleep with a woman all his life, how boring is that?" He lowered his voice and said, "Third son, now you are also a third master with a bit of reputation, and your wife is pregnant again. I can't serve you with a naked body, do you want my second brother to marry you another daughter-in-law in Henghe? Make sure you look good and have a better figure than your mother-in-law."

When Tian Huairen heard this, he immediately stood up, and said with a serious face: "Second Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? You can say this too? I think Second Brother, you are drunk, go back to the room and rest." After speaking, he turned around and left without looking at Tian Huaixiao.

"Hey, why did you start a fire just by saying a few words?" Tian Huaixiao hurriedly pulled him, and apologized: "Succeed, the second brother is full of shit, so I will pay you, ah? Second brother drank the apology wine, yes Can't stop."

With a click, he put the empty bowl on the table, hiccupped, and said, "Third brother, it's done."

"Second brother, just tell me what's wrong with you." Tired, Tian Huairen yawned and asked with strength.

Tian Huaixiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "What can be the matter, why don't we just talk to each other."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow. I've been working in the fields all day and I'm exhausted."

Tian Huairen made a gesture to get up, Tian Huaixiao hurriedly pressed him down again, hesitated for a while and said: "I really have something nice to tell you."

"What?"

"I won't say anything to other people. We are good brothers of our first-milk compatriots, so we don't care about it. That's it. A while ago, your sister-in-law said that she knew a shop that made spices. His spices were sold very well, so she planned to Also open a spice shop." Tian Huaixiao said: "You also know that although eldest brother is a small official, but in Henghe, he also has a lot of gentry and local tyrants to curry favor with, with such a backing, opening that shop is a sure profit No compensation."

"That's pretty good." Tian Huairen said in a low voice with an ooh.

"Third brother, don't say that brothers don't take care of you. I've discussed with Taohua. This shop should either not be opened, or the biggest one should be opened. But, you also know our family, mother, she will grab it inside and out. For a while, I won't be able to get this much money."

Since the separation, Tian Huairen has gained some knowledge, and he is no longer the stupid young man he was before. Hearing this, he immediately became alert and asked, "What does the second brother mean?"

"What do I mean, take some money out of this house, let's share the money and open the spice shop." Tian Huaixiao's eyes flashed with calculations, and he urged: "Look, big sister and young sister don't know each other. Did you all open that jewelry shop with your sister-in-law? You earn so much money that you laugh at counting the silver every day, don’t you all rely on your elder brother’s official position, and how many people go to help him just to curry favor with him?”

"Third son, you take out three 500 taels, and be a small boss, counting money for fun, isn't it better than your exhausting farming?"

As soon as Tian Huaixiao's words came out, Tian Huairen stood up in shock and said with his tongue out, "Second Brother, where did I get so much money?"

"Third son, don't pretend. A while ago, you sold those cakes for money, and you also made those preserved eggs. You know how much money you made. You won't be able to get these 500 taels?" Tian Huaixiao sneered. He said in a loud voice: "I don't want to invite anyone else. Seeing that you are my brother, I will count you as a part. Third, this is a guaranteed profit. After passing this village, there is no such shop? Besides, You also want your mother-in-law and children to live a good life, right? You are a man, so you have to take responsibility."

"Second brother, let's not say that I don't have any money. The Henghe River is too far away, and I'm not that good at doing business. I only know how to farm, and there's nothing wrong with farming." Tian Huairen refused without hesitation.

Tian Huairen is not the kind of person who is desperate for face, his duty is his strength, he is honest and gentle, and he has no masculinity, and he will never respond in a feverish way just because Tian Huaixiao stabbed a few words.

"You don't need to take care of it, you just need to take out the money, and your sister-in-law and I will take care of the rest, and you can just be a hands-off shopkeeper and wait for the dividends and silver every month." Tian Huaixiao laughed and said: " You just give someone money, you don’t have to do anything, just sit and wait for the cashier, that’s a great thing, how about it? Let’s make a fortune together, brother.”

"Second brother, I really didn't lie to you. It's not that I don't like money and don't want to get rich. It's just that I really don't have any money. You can find a partner with the eldest sister and the others. I won't get involved. Now that I have land and land, I don't have to worry about food and drink. I am also satisfied." Tian Huairen shook his head.

Tian Huaixiao's face sank, and he said: "Third brother, you have to make it clear, this is a business that is sure to make money without losing money, even if you don't have to do it, you can still have something to eat. These three younger siblings are wives, and Yan Yatou and the others are also young masters. .”

"Second brother, I..."

"Father, go back to the house quickly, my mother said my stomach hurts."

Just when Tian Huairen was about to speak,.Xiao Wu suddenly ran in, his face full of anxiety.

When Tian Huairen heard this, his face changed drastically, he didn't care about Tian Huaixiao anymore, he quickly dragged Xiao Wu and ran out of the house, leaving Tian Huaixiao there, a little confused about the situation.

"This, damn it." After Tian Huaixiao came to his senses, the figure disappeared, and he thumped the table bitterly, making his job go crazy.

It was just a little bit away, and the silver was worn out.
