Notes on Leisurely Living in the Farm

Chapter 25

Shen Fuxiang frowned into a pimple, so this is how his mother saw him?Everything he has endured for so many years has not fallen into her heart at all.

"Mother, the fourth brother is not that kind of person. When he calms down, he will be fine."

"Yes, mother, calm down."

Shen Fuhai persuaded repeatedly, Cheng also followed.At this moment, the couple's thinking is unprecedentedly consistent, and they must not let the fourth child's family take advantage of it.You've earned enough money from selling steamed stuffed buns, so why are you still greedy for their stuff?

It's a pity that no one present is a fool, even Shen Fuxiang, who has been pretending to be stupid for decades, doesn't want to pretend anymore.Looking at my beloved sons and daughters in coarse linen and linen clothes, and looking at Chunsheng opposite him in rich clothes and fine food.Even if he is not as noble as the eldest son's second brother, he will not be reduced to such a poor situation.

"When a mother gives birth to a child, the child has nothing to repay. But Chunsheng has no kindness to the child, and one yard is worth one yard."

He only talked about life but not about raising, he straightforwardly told the truth.In fact, if Shen Fuxiang's vitality was not strong enough, he would have died early in his childhood when his parents didn't love him or his mother didn't love him.

"Fourth, I will pay for the three pennies of the ethnology for you."

After saying this, the old lady gritted her teeth and showed a flesh-cutting expression.Yiyou wanted to laugh, their family was poor, but the Shen family was indeed the biggest landlord in ten miles and eight villages.Having been a landlady for many years, the old lady will be short of three pennies of money.

Send beggars!

"Changsheng, your life is worth three pennies. I'm afraid this money is not even enough to ask a scholar to write a certificate."

She said ironically, and she looked at Cheng Hua: "But it's useless to write a complaint. Isn't there a ready-made scapegoat? The entanglements caused by the bun business, what an appropriate excuse? Cheng Hua, don't you think so? Your parents are not angry My steamed stuffed buns are selling well, so please invite the epileptic to make trouble. If you can’t get it right, you will try to kill Changsheng to vent your anger.”

With a long voice, she spoke very seductively.Cheng Hua's spirit had completely collapsed at this moment, and he shook his head again and again: "I didn't do it, my aunt found the madman from the county."

Shen Fuxiang's face turned pale with shock. With his blood and family relationship there, he put most of his suspicions on the Cheng family.He never expected that the one who hit him hard in the end was indeed his own brother.

The last glimmer of hope dissipated, he sat down in despair, and crossed his legs.

"Mother is quite clear that the second elder brother and the second sister-in-law have no great kindness to my son, so this matter should be discussed separately."

He said almost the same words, but in a different tone, but Yiyou felt that his father seemed to be a different person.Between the eyebrows, there was even a bit of Chen Deren's frivolity.

"You..." The old lady's hands trembled: "From now on, if you go to sell your buns, the Shen family will never bother to say anything. Now, get out of here immediately!"

Shen Fuxiang clasped his hands together: "Mother, I want to get lost too, but did Second Brother forget something?"

Except for Yiyou, everyone in the room was stunned.

"Fourth, don't push yourself too hard and forget about filial piety."

Up to now, she still wants to put on airs of patriarch, Yiyou sneered: "Second Uncle, do you want my father to honor you so that you won't be afraid of being in the same generation as grandma?"

When it came to the end, she smiled ambiguously, which made Cheng's skin crawl all over: "What is Erya Huqin?"

Mrs. Li finally recovered from the panic: "Second sister-in-law, I will discipline my daughter. Although we are close, who dares to let you take care of the child."

"What did the younger brother and sister say?"

Yiyou's lips moved, and her father snatched away the sarcasm that came out of her mouth: "What are you talking about, tell the truth! Chunsheng was taught by you to intend to murder his brother, who dares to give the child to you with peace of mind. Second brother, I also I won't go around in circles with you. Although we didn't separate our families after my father died, each family got ten acres of land and one cattle in the commune. Only the younger brother's share was left to the able-bodied by the mother because he couldn't take care of it second brother."

"Bai has taken advantage of it for so many years, it's time for the second brother to hand it over now."

Changsheng's eyes lit up, and Yiyou couldn't hide his excitement.Not because of the ten acres of land, but because it was the first time in the two lifetimes that my father was willing to take the initiative to break up with the second uncle, instead of avoiding his edge without fighting.

"The family is going to be separated. I, an old woman, might as well die..."

The old lady gave birth to three sons in a row, and not only almost lost her life when she gave birth to the fourth son, she was also compared to everything that that concubine gave birth to.From the beginning to the end, she wished she could not have this son.Now asking her to hand over what she is holding is no different from cramping her tendons.

"Father, don't worry, I'll persuade grandma. You take Chunsheng out and give her peace."

The old lady is afraid of cramping, so she will skin her alive.Both are painful, it depends on which one she chooses.Seeing such a father today, she is already satisfied, and other things are not important anymore.

"Ouch my head..."

Without saying a word, Shen Fuxiang pulled Chunsheng out.Because of going all out, he even directly pinched Chunsheng's bones, screaming in pain.For a while, the duet of the grandfather and grandson resounded throughout the Shen family's ancestral house.

"This is more refreshing than the big dramas I listened to during the Chinese New Year. It just so happens that it is better to let everyone come in and watch, and it is better to alert the county government officials. There are officials here, and it will save you from coming out every now and then, just like widows and widows. It needs humility and tolerance .”

Lowering his head and speaking sarcastic words, Shen Fuxiang fanned himself with the palm of his hand.No one cooperated, and gradually Shen Fuhai and Cheng could not persist.When they came to the door, the old lady withdrew her tears for a moment.

"I promise you, Fu Hai, give him the land."

"Mom, really..."

Shen Fuxiang turned back and pinched Chunsheng by the way.The old lady's heart twitched, and she was really dizzy: "Give it to him quickly."

"Fourth brother, the ten acres of land next to the white stone pile will belong to you from today. As for the cattle, you can take one of them home. The land belongs to the Shen family's ancestral property. I hope you can do your best."

Shen Fuxiang heaved a sigh of relief, didn't answer, but turned back and lowered his head: "Empty words are nothing."

Cheng was furious: "What else do you want, let Chunsheng go soon."

"I want the title deed."

He said every word, and every word he said was accompanied by Chunsheng's scream.But at this moment, everyone was startled by the sudden change of Shen Fuxiang, and they didn't even think about saving him.

"Give it to him!" The old lady spoke, full of pain and hatred.This fourth child is here to ask for his life.

After entering the room for a long time, Shen Fuhai finally took out a crumpled piece of paper with fingerprints all over it.Yiyou took it, and she knew a few words in the days of following Chen Deren.But now, all he had to do was push the matter to Chunsheng.

"Father, it's ten acres of land, so it should be right."

Satisfied, Shen Fuxiang stood up and returned to his honest appearance again: "Mother was shocked today, my son will leave first."

It would have been fine if he had been being cool and domineering, but the sudden contrast would only make people more irritated.The old lady trembled and finally passed out completely.

The Shen family's ancestral house was in chaos, Yiyou took Changsheng and Mu Yu and left behind his parents.This meeting was really comforting, and the second uncle gave the barren white stone pile, which was exactly what she wanted.

Most importantly, my father finally stood up.It is also time to think carefully about what to do with your own family in the future.
