Rebirth Farmer Yaomei

Chapter 12

In the three surnames in Sanjia Village, the Ning family has always had the fewest descendants. It was only in Ning Liang's father's generation that they were divided into three families.

The eldest son has only one son, Ning Liang, who has been guarding the old house. Although the third son has two sons, he only has one grandson, so the family is not separated, and they still live in the old house.

Only the second house has too many sons, and the old house couldn’t fit in for a long time, so the younger sons lived in separate families. The eldest son, Uncle Ning, was assigned to the old house and was also responsible for supporting his parents, so he just took care of the second old man’s affairs. down.

But Ning Wan didn't allow Erfang to confuse those things, she must ask clearly.But she was already giving Erfang a lot of face. After all, they were all surnamed Ning. It was revealed that the entire Ning family couldn't hold their heads high in Sanjia Village, so she didn't ask in front of everyone.

Seeing that the second old man finally admitted his mistake, Ning Wan sneered in her heart. If she didn't expose the matter, the second grandfather would watch his own family fall apart and not speak up.At that time, it is said, what is the use!
However, this is already much better than Sanfang. After all, Sanfang might not even admit it. Even when they came to look for Second Grandpa at noon, they probably thought about how to deny the matter.Back then, Ning Wan heard the second grandfather's dying words, and sent someone to ask the third old man, but he flatly denied it, leaving Ning Wan helpless.

Of course he did not end well!
In the deathly silence, the second old man sobbed a few times, raised his hand to wipe his tears, looked at the four people standing in the big room below, opened his mouth, but said nothing, he really had no face to say ah!
Seeing this, the uncle persuaded: "Father, just say it, so that you don't feel uncomfortable in your heart all the time." He is older than Ning Liang, so he knows some things vaguely. With a talkative personality, now no one else can understand what dad is thinking.

"If you don't talk about it, I can only take it to the coffin." The second grandfather sighed deeply, and finally said to Ning Liang: "When your great grandfather left, your third uncle and I were just like you when your father left. At that age, we were all raised by your father, built a house for us and married a wife, and each family gave us three stones of food."

Sanshi’s grain is about a thousand catties, but in Sanjia Village, grain generally refers to unprocessed grain, that is, with skin, so it will be much less if it is really ground, but this amount is exactly the annual output of three mu of land in Sanjia Village. It is also recognized by the villagers as a person's annual expenses, including food, accommodation and pocket expenses.

"So when your father left, he asked me and your third uncle to each support you for a year, which means that we will repay his kindness. He will be strong all his life, and he will never say these words on weekdays. Therefore, you and your My sister doesn't even know, but your third uncle and I understand it in our hearts, so we naturally agreed."

"But later," the second grandfather choked up again, "we had more women in the two houses, but not as much land as the big one. Therefore, since Erlang married a daughter-in-law at the age of 16, life has become better and better. At this time, he wants to pay back our two houses. Three stones of food each, we were moved to accept it, and then for some reason, we felt that we really had a mountain of kindness towards Erlang..."

Then he bullied his father and mother step by step.

Only then did Ning Wan close the matter. A strong person like grandpa, even though he fell ill later, how could he not settle down his only son?
In Sanjia Village, brothers, nephews and nephews should help each other. When the grandfather helped the two younger brothers, he might not expect anything in return, but when he passed away, it was only right to ask the two younger brothers to help his son again.At that time, he must have thought that the two younger brothers he had raised would take good care of his son for him, so he left with peace of mind, but he didn't expect that people's hearts were the most unreliable.

After the second old man finished speaking, he looked at Ning Wan and asked in a trembling voice, "Elder brother, what else did you say?"

In fact, the reason why the second old man can tell the truth is not because of guilt, but because he is worried that he will meet his grandfather after death.Ning Wan looked at his dim old eyes, with tears on her cheeks, but she couldn't feel sympathy.If her family only lost some food and money, Ning Wan might not be so cruel, but in her dream, what she encountered was far from that simple, so she still couldn't forgive Second Grandpa.

Although she has never met her grandfather, and her question was not told by her grandfather, it is not bad that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, otherwise how could she have such a dream?

Ning Wan met the eyes of the second old man and looked over, "Man is doing it, but the sky is watching!" She didn't say whether it was her grandfather who said it, or she said it herself, so she turned around and left. What is the relationship between these two people?

Hearing this, the second old man fell straight on the kang and cried loudly, "I'm sorry, big brother!"

Ning Dalang hurried forward, "Father, you don't have to worry about paying off your father's debt. I will definitely pay back what I owe Erlang's family. Grandpa won't blame you anymore."

Ning Liang couldn't bear it either, and he had always been closer to Second Uncle, so he went over to persuade him: "Second Uncle, after all, you raised me for a year and treated me well, even when you married Mrs Yu, you also said what you said for us. "

Mrs. Yu also recalled the events back then, when she begged with her family in front of Ningliang's gate, Ningliang gave them a few nests of sorghum rice noodles, and let them in to drink water.Later, the parents realized that Ning Liang was a good person, so they wanted to keep her in Sanjia Village. After finding out that Ning Liang was not yet married, they proposed a few buckets of rice and sold themselves to Ning Liang as a wife.

At that time, Ning Liang was willing to see her, but the third uncle didn't nod. After a stalemate for a day, it was the second uncle who helped her to stay in Sanjia Village. , so Yu still misses this feeling very much, and now he really forgets all the resentment, and only thinks of his second uncle.

It's not easy for Mrs. Yu to come forward because she is a nephew and daughter-in-law, so she stood together with her aunt and said, "The past is over, we are one family after all, even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected."

Ning Qing looked around and found that the younger generation couldn't intervene, so she turned around and followed Ning Wan back home, angrily saying, "It turns out that the second and third grandpas are so ungrateful, thanks to the fact that they can still pretend to be elders in front of us. The food was also fed into the dog's belly!"

I remembered all the dumplings, chicken, and even last year’s mooncakes and zongzi. After nagging for a long while, I stomped my feet and said, "No, I want to tell the story in the village and let everyone know!"

Ning Wan pulled Ning Qing back. In terms of her hatred for the second wife and the third wife, she was definitely stronger than Ning Qing, but she understood a lot in that dream. She was no longer a teenage girl, "These things You can't tell the outside, if you tell, the Guo Yu family will look down on our Ning family even more, and if there is anything in the village, our Ning family will suffer even more."

Ning Wan figured out the ins and outs of the matter, and then guessed that the second and third elders of the Ning family were always at a disadvantage in front of the Guo Yu family, probably because of their affairs. The Guo Yu family also knew something about them. They are all of the same generation, and they live in the same small village, so they can't hide it anymore.Therefore, the old men of the Guo family and the Yu family looked down on them, so they suppressed the Ning family.

Telling the truth now, besides making the Guo Yu family look down on the Ning family even more, what else can it do?It's hard to say whether they will sympathize with Da Fang, let alone if they sympathize, so what?After all, the life of one's own family still depends on the hard work of one's own family to live well.

No matter what, there is absolutely no need for Dafang to take the initiative to say this kind of thing. The two surnames have guessed it, and it is impossible to be very sure. It is best to maintain the balance of Sanjia Village.

Ning Qing didn't take it seriously, "Our family has suffered losses for so many years, what else can we lose? I don't want to say it, and I feel dissatisfied!"

Ning Wan smiled and said, "I'm also doing it for your own good. After all, the Ning family's reputation is bad, and it's not good for your reputation either."

Right now, Ning Qing is most concerned about his marriage with the shopkeeper Liu, so when he heard about his reputation, he came to his senses, so he didn't go out again, turned around and came back to sit on the kang, holding the shoe uppers that Yu Shi had glued in the afternoon Embroidered under an oil lamp.

It took a while for Ning Liang and Yu Shi to come back, and when they saw Ning Qing and Ning Wan, they remembered to tell them, "You shouldn't have heard these things, but since you know them all, don't tell them outside, so as not to make people laugh. "

Ning Qing glanced at Ning Wan, "Of course we can't go out and talk nonsense, it's not good for our family's reputation!"

"That's right. No matter how wrong your second and third grandfathers are, you are still elders. We can't speak ill of elders and ask the villagers to poke their backs."

What Yu said was not unreasonable, and Ning Wan didn't intend to make the matter public, but she was concerned, "What about the food that Sanfang owes us?"

Mrs. Yu didn't know either, and when she turned to look at her husband, Ning Liang's heart was even more messed up, and now he said embarrassingly: "I don't know, I can't come to ask for it."

Then he seemed to make an excuse for himself, "After all, I lived and ate in Sanfang for a year, so I should pay them back three stones of food. As for what your grandfather gave to Sanfang back then, that's another matter. "

Yu Shi also agreed: "Forget it, after all, we are elders, and our family does not lack the three stones of grain."

If it was Ning Wan, even if she didn't want to come back to Sanshi grain, she would go to Sanfang to speak clearly.But obviously, this is what Ning Liang and Yu Shi are most afraid of. They are weak-tempered, and at most dare to follow Ning Wan to the second room to ask questions.
