Chapter 78 Trouble
Tong Zhaofu came out of the private school with a small satchel on his back, chatting and laughing with children of the same age.

"Ah Fu—"

Hearing Tong Zhi'er's voice, Tong Zhaofu immediately looked over, but he was very surprised when he saw it.Tong Zhi'er was sitting on a new and sturdy cart, smiling and waving at him like a flower.Tong Zhixin stood beside the cart, his face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.

"Father, Second Sister, this is... from our family?" Tong Zhaofu trotted over.

Tong Zhier nodded, "Ah Fu, come up."

"Hey," Tong Zhaofu happily got on the scooter and waved goodbye to his classmates.

"Sit down, let's go——" Tong Zhixin shouted, pushing the cart around in a circle, and pushed it in the direction of going home.

Tong Zhaofu was so excited, he touched the shaft of the car for a while, and the wood chips under him for a while.

"Second Sister, our family already has a car," Tong Zhaofu grinned behind his ears, his eyes narrowed.

At dusk that day, the whole village was boiling.

"Yeah? Isn't that the fourth child of the Tong family?"

"It's him, it's him. His two children are sitting on the scooter. He is really capable. He bought this scooter."

"Where did he get the money?"

"I heard it was earned by picking mushrooms in the forest he bought."

"Tsk tsk, he is really brave..."

"No!"

Lan Hua, who was collecting clothes outside, saw Tong Zhi'er and the others, and immediately walked over in surprise and said, "Uncle, Zhi'er, is this the scooter your family bought?"

Tong Zhier nodded, "Lan Hua, do you want to come up too?"

"Hey," Lan Hua hurriedly put her clothes on the bench, excitedly climbed onto the cart, and sat down next to Tong Zhi'er.

The uneven village road was a little bumpy, but Tong Zhixin pushed it steadily, Lan Hua's face was flushed, and she stared fiercely at the cart.

Some families in the village also have carts, but those families are not very friendly, and the Lanhua family is not familiar with them. At that time, when someone bought a cart and came back, she just followed the adults to look behind.

Now, how can Lanhua, who finally got on the cart, not be excited?
"mother----"

Before reaching the door, Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhaofu shouted loudly.

Hearing the sound, Fang Cuiwei from the room quickly came out, seeing Tong Zhixin pushing the cart, she was equally pleasantly surprised.

"This………"

Tong Zhixin pushed the cart to him and said with a smile: "Zhi'er said that after buying a cart, it will be easy to deliver the goods, and you can save some effort when you go to the county in a few days."

"Mother, come up and sit down too." Seeing the excitement in Fang Cuiwei's eyes, Tong Zhi'er said.

Fang Cuiwei's excitement was different from that of Tong Zhaofu and others. Her natal family had a carriage, and she was used to a carriage that was more comfortable than a cart since she was a child.What excited Fang Cuiwei was that she married a capable man and had several smart and lovely children.

"Mom, hurry up and sit on the scooter. The scooter is very comfortable, and Dad pushes it well." Tong Zhaofu jumped off the scooter and stopped Fang Cuiwei from passing.Tong Duo'er, who was doing needlework in the house, and Tong Zhu'er, who was feeding the chickens in the backyard, also came forward at this time. Seeing the cart parked in the stone-paved yard, their little faces were full of excitement.

"Eldest sister, Zhu'er, come up quickly too." Tong Zhi'er waved.

Tong Duo'er and Tong Zhu'er also got into the carriage, Tong Zhixin shouted "sit tight" and pushed the cart around the yard.

"what----"

The timid Tong Zhu'er was taken aback, and immediately grabbed Tong Duo'er's hand tightly.

"Zhu'er is not afraid, father will protect us." Tong Duo'er comforted her.

Tong Zhu'er nodded, and her body, which was stiff due to the shaking, gradually relaxed.After Tong Zhixin pushed the cart around the yard for five laps, Tong Zhu'er completely forgot about her fears, and her excitement was boundless.

As the night deepened, the Tong family's old house was immersed in depression.

Mr. Tong and Mrs. Tong called everyone into the main house, but they didn't speak for a long time.

"Father, what happened?" Tong Zhiming asked.

Old Master Tong raised his head, his eyes were like knives, causing Tong Zhiming to shake his body.

"I wondered why he was making a fuss about breaking up the family. So he knew that he wanted to get rich, so he dumped our family," Old Master Tong said with a grim expression.

Although the old lady didn't speak, her clenched hands got stuck in the flesh under the nails, revealing her mood at the moment.

Tong Zhide took a step forward, "Father, it's not so easy to get fourth brother's money, you know, there are man-eating beasts in that forest."

Old Master Tong gave Tong Zhide a gouged look, then looked at Tong Zhiming and said, "Boss, you will also go to the forest to pick mushrooms tomorrow."

Tong Zhiming's body trembled like chaff, "Father, the forest is too dangerous, I won't go."

"Isn't the fourth child gone too, why is he alright?" Mr. Tong said with a beard and a stare.

Tong Zhiming shook his head desperately, regardless of whether it would anger Mr. Tong, he was unwilling to go into the woods anyway.

In the end, Mr. Tong took out his trump card, "If you go to the forest to pick mushrooms tomorrow, I will allow your wife to come back." The eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Lin, stayed outside for almost a month, during which Tong Zhiming said a lot of good things. , and begged for an unknown number of times, but the old man and the old lady just didn't let go.

When this condition came out, Tong Zhiming became entangled.

One side is his own wife, and the other side is life and death.

"Father..." Tong Cui'er whispered.

Tong Zhiming turned his head and looked at his haggard daughter who had almost lost her human form, feeling very blocked in her heart.The old lady was angry, so she vented all her anger on Tweety. As a father, he couldn't contradict his mother for being unfilial.If Mrs. Lin came back and had her own mother to protect her, the life of Cui'er would definitely be much better than it is now.

These nights, when he was alone in the desert, Tong Zhiming also missed Lin's well-being even more.

Closing his eyes, Tong Zhiming made up his mind.

"...Father, I'll go." Tong Zhiming gritted his teeth.

Mr. Tong's face softened a little.

"Father, Lin Zi belongs to the fourth family, so it's inappropriate for the elder brother to go!" Tong Zhide stepped forward and said.

Old Master Tong frowned, "Boss is his own big brother, if boss goes, he can still blow him out!"

"But Dad, didn't you say that the fourth child is not from the Tong family, we have all broken ties with the fourth child, and we will no longer communicate with each other in the future?"

Old Master Tong stared, his heart was so blocked that the second son had slapped him in the face in public.

"I was angry!" Mr. Tong said with a stiff neck.

Tong Zhide didn't make a sound anymore, and made up his mind to inform the fourth child after a while.

After explaining this matter, Mr. Tong asked everyone to go back to the house to rest, Tong Zhide talked to Luo Shi, and quietly went out through the back door.

At Tong Zhixin's house, the whole family gathered around the dining table to eat excitedly.

The family bought a new scooter, and everyone was very excited, and they didn't cook until it was getting dark.In addition, Tong Zhixin bought some fish from the county, and tonight's dishes took some time to prepare, and they were not served on the table until just now.

"Come on, son's father," Fang Cuiwei put the biggest piece of fish into Tong Zhixin's bowl, "You have worked hard these days."

Tong Zhixin also put a chopstick of meat into Fang Cuiwei's bowl, "You have worked harder at home than me."

The two brought food to Tong Duo'er, Tong Zhi'er, Tong Zhu'er and Tong Zhaofu in turn. After a while, there was a knock on the door.

Tong Zhixin put down the bowl and opened the door latch.

"Second brother——"

Fang Cuiwei also stood up, "Second brother, come in quickly."

Tong Duo'er immediately went to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks.

"It's time to eat," Tong Zhide said, looking at the food on the table, with a deeper smile on his face, it seems that the life of the fourth child is indeed very different from that at Tong's house before.

Tong Zhixin welcomed Tong Zhide into the room, "Second brother, let's eat together."

Tong Zhide waved his hands again and again, "No, your second sister-in-law has already made it for me at home. Fourth brother, I came here to tell you something."

Tong Zhide's embarrassment made Tong Zhi feel a little worried in his confidence.

"Second brother, what's the matter?"

.........

Fang Cuiwei and Tong Duo'er cleaned up the dishes, and the whole family sat without saying a word.

"Or, let the eldest brother pick it."

"Father, this is impossible," Tong Zhi'er was the first to speak.

"I don't agree either," Tong Zhaofu followed up.

Tong Zhixin looked at Tong Duo'er and Tong Zhu'er, both of them had the same expressions as Tong Zhi'er.

Tong Zhixin looked at Fang Cuiwei imploringly.

"There are a lot of mushrooms in the woods. We bought them to take advantage of the big advantage. Let the elder brother pick them." Knowing that Tong Zhixin valued these brothers very much, Fang Cuiwei couldn't bear to disappoint him, and continued, "Since the elder brother Come here to pick, and when the time comes, the second brother will also come over together."

"Hey! I'll go to the old house tomorrow."

Tong Zhixin was overjoyed.

Tong Zhi'er disapproved in his heart, but he couldn't say anything more on the surface.The second uncle is kind to them, and he picks them whenever he wants, but the uncle is not, and if he takes care of the eldest aunt and returns to Tong's house, he may not know how to count against their family.Picking mushrooms today and moving things tomorrow will definitely get all the things in their house in the end.

This is their family's belongings. Tong Zhixin has separated from Tong's family. Mr. Tong can ask Tong Zhiming to pick mushrooms again. This is really thick-skinned.

"Dong dong dong——" There was a knock on the door, followed by a soft little girl's voice, "Fourth uncle, fourth aunt."

Hearing this voice, it seemed to be Tong Cui'er.

Tong Zhier frowned.

Tong Zhixin opened the door again, Tong Cui'er approached the light, saw her appearance clearly, Tong Zhi'er was startled.

Tong Cui'er at this moment is not as proud and willful as before, with frizzy hair, haggard face, and sunken eye sockets, she looks like she has been ill for a long time.

Fang Cuiwei was also surprised.

She watched Tong Cui'er grow up, and she knew better than anyone else what this child was like in the past.

Fang Cuiwei gritted her teeth, feeling dazed for a while, fortunately she wanted to break up the family even if she died, otherwise, the three girls Duo'er, Zhi'er, and Zhu'er...

Tong Cui'er lowered her head, her voice was as thin as a mosquito, "Fourth Uncle, Fourth Aunt, I want my father to come to your forest to pick mushrooms, can you tell me where is the best place to go..."
