"Master Wang...Master Wang..."

The carriage left in front of him. Cao Xiangnan stood at the back and watched the carriage go away. He reached out and grabbed his head, cursing in his heart. This damn old thing left without even listening to him.

"Hey hey...don't go." Liu Yuan ran after him for a few steps and stretched out his hand to stop the carriage. The carriage brushed past him and almost hit him. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been hit.

"Come back, don't chase." Cao Xiangnan shouted when he saw Liu Yuan still wanted to chase.

Liu Yuan walked back a few steps and returned to his master, lowering his head, looking like he had done something wrong.

"It's okay, it's none of your business." Cao Xiangnan looked at the carriage going away and retracted his gaze.

After finally stopping the person, he revealed his identity and said he wanted to talk to the other party about his third brother. The other party did not even give him room for negotiation and left with a sullen face, making it clear that he did not want to talk to him about his third brother. So he wanted to send his third brother back to his husband's family, which was really a bit difficult to deal with.

This was the first time Cao Xiangnan saw the old man Wang, whom his third brother married. He was older than his father Cao Ashan, looked old, short and fat, with a swollen face and unsteady feet when walking. It was obvious that he indulged in

excessive sexual activities. I heard that the mansion also married a lot of young servants, and his third brother was just one of them. If he wants to say that the marriage is divorced, then it’s divorced. If he wants to say that she is sent back, then she is sent back. Living with such an old thing, there are still many decades of life ahead. It is better to live a good life than to follow a group of people in that mansion to compete for favors.

It’s a pity that people of this era don’t think so. His third brother is even less like what he thinks. Now he thinks about going back to the Wang family all day long. How can it become like this? He wants to go back unwillingly after it has become like this.

Thinking of his third brother who is still waiting for his good news, Cao Xiangnan really doesn’t know how to go back and tell his third brother.

Thinking of those people and things in the compound, Cao Xiangnan honestly doesn’t want to care. But no matter whether he wants to care or not, as long as he lives in Caojia Village, those troubles will find him, so sometimes he has an idea in his mind, why not just move to this town.

Is this also a solution? Cao Xiangnan suddenly thought that this method was not bad.

The carriage went to Yipinzhai, and Cao Xiangnan came to find Liu the shopkeeper to drink tea. The waiter in the shop was very familiar with him. He went upstairs to the private room and sat down to drink a sip of tea. Later, Liu the shopkeeper came in.

"Brother, are you worried about something?" Liu the shopkeeper asked when he saw Cao Xiangnan's expression.

The waiter poured tea for their shopkeeper, and knowing that their shopkeeper was talking to Master Cao and didn't want to keep anyone here to serve, he left and closed the door.

Is it so obvious? Cao Xiangnan reached out and touched his face, looking at the shopkeeper Liu who came in, and smiled bitterly, "It's just some things at home."

He didn't say what it was. What his mother did in the past was also bad. Just for a few taels of silver, she sent his third brother to be a servant to a man who was old enough to be his grandfather. No one would do such a thing as selling a child for money! Now his third brother is still in the mansion and has been sent back to his mother's house by Master Wang. These things are really hard to talk about to outsiders, so even if he was asked to ask Shopkeeper Liu for help, Cao Xiangnan couldn't open his mouth.

He really felt that the people and things in the compound were terrible. Who doesn't have terrible relatives? ! It's just that his family was terrible, much worse than others.

Seeing that Cao Xiangnan didn't say anything, Manager Liu didn't continue to ask about this issue.

"Hey, brother, are there any good houses in this town?" Thinking of that terrible family, Cao Xiangnan really felt that it would be feasible to move the house to this town, far away from the Cao family compound, and live a few days of quiet and good life.

"Why, do you want to move to this town?" When the shopkeeper Liu saw Cao Xiangnan's expression, he knew that he had guessed right. He smiled and asked jokingly, "Didn't you say that living in the village is quieter? I asked you to move to this town before, but you refused."

Now he really thought that there was some kind of monster chasing this kid. It was probably the same, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of moving to this town. After

a little guess in his heart, the shopkeeper Liu could understand the general idea.

"Of course there are good houses. If you want to move to this town, I will find a good house for you and give you a reasonable price." Shopkeeper Liu naturally welcomed Cao Xiangnan to live in this town. It would be inconvenient for him to find him, and he would have to ask someone to go into Caojia Village to find him.

Cao Xiangnan looked at the shopkeeper Liu and knew that he was serious about helping him find a house. As long as he said a word, the house would be found for him quickly. However, he was hesitant in his heart. Should he buy a house and move in?

This year's business was good, and the income was good. He also had some money in his hands, so it was not impossible to buy a yard in the town. It was just that people dared to have other ideas only when they had money in their hands.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and waited for Cao Xiangnan's answer without urging him.

"I'll think about it again, and then go back to discuss it with Wanfeng." Cao Xiangnan was wavering in his heart and could not make a decision for a while.

It was said that moving to the town to live was a difficult thing, but in fact it was not difficult. However, once he moved in, there were still many things to do in the village. There was one good thing. He had originally set up the academy and workshop outside the village, towards the town, so that it would be convenient for the children to go to the academy from the town.

In his heart, he thought that it was feasible to move to the town, if the house in the town was more comfortable than in the village. Cao Xiangnan thought about it over and over again.

When the time comes, he will ask Cao Gang if he wants to buy a house in the town and move there. Based on his understanding of Cao Gang and Sun Bailian, Cao Gang would definitely throw the money to him and let him do it. Sun Bailian stood aside and said that everything should be done according to her husband's instructions. Cao Xiangnan had seen through the couple a long time ago.

However, it was not his own decision to live in the town. He had to go back and discuss it with his wife. But he could buy this house first. Cao Xiangnan asked Liu, the shopkeeper, to help him look at the houses in the town first, and then he would talk about it if he found a suitable one.

He drank two cups of tea with Liu, the shopkeeper, in Yipinzhai and chatted for a while. Nanyang had sent a letter asking him to go there. Fang, the shopkeeper, urged him every three days. If he hadn't been waiting for the children, he would have gone there long ago.

After saying goodbye to Liu, Cao Xiangnan left Yipinzhai.

When the sun sets, the carriages are sent back to the village from the town. Those who have been busy outside all day also return home. Their wives and children are waiting for them to return home. The table is filled with prepared dinner. After waiting for the return of the outsiders, the family sits around the table to eat dinner.

Smoke rises from the small village. At this moment, dinner is ready for every household in the village.

Cao Chunqing, who has been waiting in the house for a day, sees the dregs and coarse grains on the table when dinner comes. There is no oil or water in the bowl of wild vegetables. There are only a few pieces of fat pork in the cabbage stewed with pork. His second brother puts all of them into his own bowl. However, Cao Chunqing doesn't care about those few pieces of meat. He finds the food hard to swallow.

Seeing the look of his second brother, Cao Chunqing felt that he had never known this man. Even people with the temperament of his mother did not dare to say anything about his second brother.

It is easy for people to go from luxury to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to simplicity. People who used to be able to live in a broken mud house with their family, now can't eat the leftover rice and grains in this big green brick and tile house.

"If you don't want to eat, don't eat. There is land for you to eat, but you still complain about it." Chen Zhu rolled his eyes when he saw his third brother's disgusted look, and wished that he could not even give such a bowl of food to his brother who was divorced by his husband's family.

After being divorced by his husband, he used to expect his married brother to bring back some good things and money to his mother, but now he can't count on it.

Cao Chunqing glanced at his mother and couldn't eat the bowl of rice porridge, so he put down his chopsticks and went into the house. Seeing the child go into the house, Cao's father looked at the happy person with an unhappy face and said, "Just eat your meal, can you save some trouble?"

When Chen Zhu saw that the head of the family was unhappy, he immediately kept silent and didn't dare to speak.

Wang Yan at the table lowered his head to eat his meal and fed the little one next to him with vegetables and rice, without delaying him at all. His third uncle put down his chopsticks and left, and he didn't even raise his head, as if it had nothing to do with him and didn't affect him at all.

Nowadays, almost every household in Caojia Village has people working outside. They have income every day, and the crops they grow and raise can be sold, so they are quite tight at the end of the month. The grain for this year has been harvested, and many families in the village said they would keep it for themselves, and they were reluctant to save the grain from their own mouths and sell it. From time

to time, the families in the village would buy a piece of meat to eat at home. In the past, the children in the family were so hungry that they looked pale and skinny. Now that they have food, the children have gained weight, and the adults are no longer so thin.

There were many children in the family, and both he and his husband went to work for his fourth uncle, so they had some money in their pockets. Chen Li was reluctant to buy a small piece of meat every two days to cook for the children, and there was meat on the table today.

After the family was divided, they cooked in the newly built small kitchen. When they were ready, they set up a table and sat down to eat together, eating with his father and mother.

"Go, get a bowl of rice, some vegetables and meat and bring them into the house for the third child." Cao Fugui also heard what his mother said. Seeing that his third brother put down his chopsticks and threw away the rice bowl and went into the house without eating, how could this person not eat for one meal or two meals? Cao Fugui was worried again, so he asked his wife to prepare rice and vegetables and send them in.

Chen Li was actually not very willing in her heart. They had all been taken care of by their father and mother, so what did their affairs have to do with them? There was food there, and if Third Uncle didn't want to eat, that was his business. In the past, they hadn't been given any good things, but now they had to bear the brunt of the problems.

Although she was not happy in her heart, Chen Li still left some food out, and took it into Third Uncle's room when no one was paying attention. Seeing that Third Uncle was sitting there unhappy, she comforted him with a few words before leaving.

The sun was about to set outside, and the room was getting dark. The person sitting on the bed didn't move, and the bowl of rice and dishes that was brought in was placed next to him. Cao Chunqing didn't move either.

No, he wants to go find his fourth brother. He doesn't want to stay here. He wants to go back to Wang's house! Cao Chunqing suddenly stood up from the bed, strode to the door, opened the half-closed door, and went out.
