Chapter 17 Bad Idea

Thank you sister May for adding updates.At the same time, thank you for your support.

===========
Mrs. Tong made it clear that she wanted to play money.

Hearing what she said, Tong Zhixin immediately said: "Mother, I will also give the fifth brother the money to go to the private school."

The fourth son is so upright, Mrs. Tong is relieved in her heart, but her face is indifferent.

At this time, the eldest aunt Lin bumped into the uncle Tong Zhiming and gave him a look.Tong Zhiming understood, and opened his mouth and said: "Fourth brother, you have money now, so you have to help me as an elder brother. A while ago, your eldest nephew Zhao Jin and his wife sent a letter, saying that Zhao Jin suddenly They are seriously ill, and they live in the county, and all the money they use to earn money and work is used to live, and there is no savings in their hands. We are a family, and now you have money again..."

Tong Zhiming didn't say any more, but looking at Tong Zhixin's meaning, it couldn't be more obvious.

Tong Zhi'er snorted coldly, he was sick, why did he say it now?Moreover, they sold candied fruit yesterday and only made some money after meeting the big customers of the candied fruit shop. The uncle and aunt were obviously jealous and wanted to share a share of the pie.

Why?
This is what their four-bedroom family got from working early in the morning and working hard for several days.They didn't do anything, and when they saw they got some money, they wanted to get a piece of it, dreaming!
Tong Zhi'er was so angry that she pulled Tong Zhixin who was about to speak, pretending to be very surprised and said: "Uncle, brother is ill, then we will go to the county to see him tomorrow."

If the eldest brother Tong Zhaojin is really ill, it's okay for them to go and help them as relatives.If the matter of Tong Zhaojin's illness was purely made up by the uncle and aunt, they would not be able to get any points from Tong Zhixin.

As soon as Tong Zhi'er said this, Uncle Tong Zhiming's expression became a little ugly, and he faltered and hawed for a long time, but he didn't get to the point.

"No need, the county is far away, and the yard where Zhaojin and the others live is also small. Once you go, his wife and son may have no place to stand. Besides, this trip is not just to take a look at Zhaojin and come back. I have to stay for a meal, right? The county is no more expensive than our country. Food and drink cost money. Now that Zhao Jin is sick, and when money is needed, it would be good to ask someone to give the money to their husband and wife. There is no need to do this If it's troublesome, I have to go to the county. Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, don't you think so?"

The eldest aunt, Mrs. Lin, was full of smiles.

Fang Cuiwei and Tong Zhixin looked at each other, but did not speak.

"Auntie, brother is sick now. As a family, we should go to the county to have a look, and it is also necessary. Not to mention that we don't know brother Zhaojin's condition at this time, but sister-in-law and nephew, We can take care of it when we go there. As my aunt said, there is no need to worry too much. When we go to the county, we will bring rice and vegetables from home by the way, so that my sister-in-law does not have to spend extra money to buy vegetables. "

Tong Zhi'er also said with a smile.

The smile on the eldest aunt Lin's face gradually froze, and she gritted her teeth at Tong Zhi'er, who had become sharp-tongued after being ill.

Old man Tong said at this time, "Girl Zhi'er is right. Zhao Jin is the eldest grandson, and there is no one to help him in the county except his wife and son. As a family, we should go and see. Boss," Old man Tong looked at Tong Zhiming, and said with some dissatisfaction: "You really are, why did you say it now that Zhao Jin is sick?"

His tone was a little heavy, Tong Zhiming was afraid of his father since he was a child, so he said hesitantly: "Father..."

Old man Tong didn't look at him, he patted Tong Zhixin on the shoulder, and said, "You guys have been busy all day, go back early and have a rest."

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei saluted respectfully, and then led Tongduo, Tongduo, Tongzhu'er and Tong Zhaofu back to their yard.

The others left one by one after the two of them left.

Because of being reprimanded by old man Tong, uncle Tong Zhiming complained to his aunt Lin, went into the yard, snorted coldly, and said angrily to her: "It's all your fault for coming up with such a bad idea! How about this? Minger As soon as everyone entered the county, they all knew that Zhao Jin was not sick at all. Tell me, how can I face my fourth child and my parents in the future?"

"Master, I'm not doing this for our house, okay? The fourth child has earned money, and now we don't have a separate family, so we have to share it anyway. I think so, and it's also for the sake of the master, isn't the master always thinking about it?" Is it Erguotou in the county? With money, are you afraid that you won’t be able to drink it?”

Aunt Lin's words made Tong Zhiming lose his anger a bit, thinking of Erguotou, his favorite drink, he couldn't help feeling a little greedy, but he didn't have any good ideas in his mind to get money from Tong Zhixin.

After all, this was earned by the fourth brother and his family through hard work, and he really couldn't bear the face of asking for it like this.

"Then what do you say we should do?"

"Master, let's get someone to send a message to Zhao Jin early tomorrow, telling him to pretend to be sick."

"Pretending to be sick?" Tong Zhiming frowned, "Is this okay? If you invite a doctor over, won't you be exposed?"

The eldest aunt Lin smiled, "Master, leave this matter to me, and keep your happy cashier tomorrow."

Seeing that Mrs. Lin was full of confidence and seemed to have a good idea, Tong Zhiming let go of his worries.Thinking of the taste of Erguotou in the county, he smiled happily.

Second Uncle Tong Zhide and Second Aunt Luo Shi returned to their yard, and did not go to sleep immediately.

The fact that the fourth house made so much money today really surprised them.

"I didn't expect the fourth brother to be so powerful?" Tong Zhide murmured to his daughter-in-law Luo Shi.

Luo Shi nodded, remembering that their second wife did a year's work, but they were only given two dans of rice and one hundred wen, barely enough to maintain food and clothing.But when he thought that his son Tong Zhaoyin had also reached the age of marrying a wife, and their second wife had no money, Luo Shi felt worried.

Luo Shi told Tong Zhide what was in his heart.

Tong Zhide drank a bowl of tea, only nodded, but didn't pay attention.

The Tong family has a lot of fields, but most of them are low-quality dry fields, and it is very troublesome to plow the fields and harvest them.The labor force of the Tong family, in addition to old man Tong, eldest brother, him and the fourth child, plus a recruiting bank, can barely handle it.If he recruited Yin to go out to work, even if Mrs. Tong agreed, Mrs. Tong would not agree.

Nothing is more important than crop work.

Tong Zhide sighed, feeling extremely sorry for his son Tong Zhaoyin.

Seeing him like this, Luo Shi felt very worried, thinking that if this continues, it will be even more difficult for Zhaoyin to marry a wife when he gets older, his eyes immediately turned red.

Hearing low whimpers beside him, Tong Zhide raised his head, but saw Luo Shi crying hard.

He panicked and asked, "Why are you crying?"

"I, I think that Zhaoyin won't be able to marry a wife, so I feel very uncomfortable. Zhaoyin's father, what do you think we should do?"

Luo Shi cried with snot and tears, which made Tong Zhide's heart throbbing. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will find a way."

"But what can you do?" Luo Shi knew Tong Zhide very well, he was honest and dull, and he usually didn't talk much.Apart from crop work, I can't do much, even if I learn how to do business like the fourth child, it will not work.

"Don't cry, the fourth and I are pretty good, and our second room and the fourth room usually get along well. If I ask the fourth for help, he will definitely agree."

"But... aren't you the one who bothers to ask for help?" Luo Shi was a little shocked. Although Tong Zhide was dull and didn't talk much, he was proud in his bones and never asked for help easily.

Tong Zhide sighed, wiped away the tears for Luo Shi, and said: "The son's marriage is more important than anything else." Tong Zhide was concerned, so he talked to Tong Zhixin about it when he had time, borrowing money first, Marry a daughter-in-law for the son, and then return the fourth house to them after earning money.
