Chapter 405: Speculations and Calculations
Liujiacun
The hot topic in the village now is that the second daughter of the Liang family in Liushan has gone to the city to eat the supplied grain. This book was indeed not read in vain.
Although it is a replacement job, it is not possible without a high school education.
Now, those children in the village who were still in school but were naughty all day long had a hard time. They were scolded by their families all day long, and those who dared to talk back were often beaten: "Look at your uncle Shanliang's sister Chuxue, she was a good student, but now she has gone to the city to work.
Can you please give me some face? We are both studying, but don’t end up being worse than a girl.”
"You can't just live a lazy life anymore. You have to study hard so that you can have a chance to work in the city. Do you understand?"
"Look, what did I say? You still have to study hard. Don't think you can just get by until graduation. If you can't get a high score when the factory recruits you, it's all in vain. Did you hear me?"
Families in the village who have children who go to school have been beating and deceiving them, with only one purpose, which is to make the stubborn children study hard so that they can go to the city to eat food supply in the future.
Liu Family Old House: "Old man, it's been such a long time, those people haven't appeared again, I guess they won't come again."
Old Man Liu smoked his pipe: "Could it be that I was wrong? Those people didn't come for the second brother, but..."
Old Lady Liu suddenly thought of something: "Do you think it could be that woman's enemy?"
Old Man Liu frowned and thought for a long time, but he still had no idea: "It's not impossible."
"I just went out and heard rumors in the village that Lao Er's family's Chu Xue went to work in the city. If this is true, Lao Er's family's life will be very difficult."
"What do you think?"
Granny Liu stood up, looked at the door, then turned around and sat back in her original position: "It's hard to get Dongzi's leg back to its original state, I think it's better to let him be adopted by the second brother."
"Are you crazy?"
"Don't be angry, just listen to what I have to say."
Old Man Liu stopped smoking and stared at Old Lady Liu, angrily saying, "Now that the family has been divided, it would be strange if the old family could let you make the decision. Don't look for trouble. Besides, you know what's going on here. How can the descendants of my Liu family be buried under the feet of others in the future? Stop it."
He had already made up his mind that in a few years he would tell the eldest and third sons that the second son was not his biological son, and he would never let the second son be buried in the Liu family's ancestral tomb in the future.
Mrs. Liu was irritated by his words: "I'm not stupid, how could I let my grandson really be someone else's son? Can you please listen to me first before you draw any conclusions?"
Old Man Liu tapped his pipe on the edge of the kang and said, "Okay, okay, go ahead and tell me what you can say."
Old Lady Liu came to the door again, took a look outside, and then sat back down again: "This is what I think. Now the second brother's family has a new house. Although the villagers said that Chuxue's job was replaced, it must have cost a lot of money, but I guess the second brother and his family still have some extra money."
"What do you want to say?"
"What I mean is that Dongzi should be adopted by the second brother on the surface, and the second brother will be responsible for marrying and having children. Once all of the second brother's things are in Dongzi's hands, we can find a chance to break up with him."
After these words were spoken, Old Man Liu really started to think about it.
After a long while, he said, "Your method is feasible."
"If the old family wasn't still carrying so much debt, I would never have suggested this idea. But Dongzi is getting older every year. Given the old family's current situation, it may be difficult for Dongzi to start a family."
