Chapter 57: Everyone has their own ambitions



After knowing each other for so many years, Fu Dabai discovered for the first time that this rich and smart elder brother of his was really a——

"You stubborn bastard! You stubborn ass! If you have the energy, why don't you just use the rope to pull the millstone?!"

Fu Dabai roared.

Li Dan rarely stared and acted stupid, but said earnestly:

"Brother, at our age, if we continue to live like this, we can only be farmers with a little property!

You will never achieve anything in your life!"

Fu Dabai also said earnestly: "But you can live a lifetime."

Li Da slammed the table and said angrily: "Fu Da, stop talking nonsense, just tell me whether you will do it or not!

We must do it, fight and hone ourselves on the battlefield, you and I brothers rely on each other, if one of us can make a difference, we will definitely be better off in the future than today's mediocre life."

Li Da had also been educated and could read and write, and he had knowledge and foresight, but he was not well-educated and had a fierce appearance. According to the examiner, he would never be able to make any progress in his life.

Except for the third scholar, the others were destined to dig in the dirt for their whole lives.

But any man with a bit of ambition would want to be rich and glorious, make great achievements, have a wife and children blessed with titles, and bring honor to the family. Who can resist the temptation of being recorded in the family tree!

Li Da knew his brothers' concerns and assured them, "I still have some money at home. If you are willing to follow me to join the army, I will have someone send 20 taels of silver to your home every year! It is enough for the whole family to spend!"

If anything unexpected happens, I will take care of your wife and children, so don't worry!"

The skinny monkey grinned and said:

"Anyway, I'm going, whoever doesn't go is my son.

I have thought it through. If it works, I will make a profit. If it doesn't, can anyone come back and tell my wife to remarry with the money and funeral expenses?"

As he was talking, he suddenly remembered something and said, "You can't marry my wife!"

Fu Dabai rolled his eyes: He cares! It's as if he doesn't have a wife!

Li Da sighed and ignored him.

The two of them stared at Fu Dabai.

Fu Dabai was silent for a long time, then he smiled and clasped his fists and said:

"Everyone has his own aspirations. I have a wife and a daughter at home. We live together as a family. Digging for food in the soil is better than the invisible glory and wealth.

Brothers! The road ahead is difficult, take care! "

As soon as he got home, Yuan began to miss his father. He leaned close to Li and asked:

"When will my father come back this time?"

I was confused for several days. It seemed like I hadn't eaten for a long time, and it seemed like I hadn't seen anyone for a long time, so Yuan started to follow people around like a sticky little tail again.

"How would I know? He'll be back in ten days or half a month at most. Your father is as clingy as you are. He's never been away from home for too long."

Li pulled the skirt back from her daughter's hands and shouted at her like a chicken:

"Go away, stop hanging around me. You're so old, you're just getting in the way."

Yuan felt like he was still a kid, and walked away reluctantly, mumbling:

"How come I'm so big now? A while ago you complained that I was too small!

Now you are getting in the way again, adults change so quickly!"

The children didn't change much, except that Tuzi and Xingzi hadn't seen Yuan for several days and were particularly enthusiastic.

The rabbit even touched Yuan's head and said, "Well, not bad, it's not burning anymore, Yuan is awesome!"

Xingzi asked her distressedly, "Did you drink a lot of bitter medicine too? Niu Wa and my dad drank it every day and their mouths were grimacing."

A Yuan shook his head and said, "I didn't drink it, but there was a doctor named Grandpa Wang with a white beard who used a very long needle to prick me.

They said it was acupuncture, but I fell asleep as soon as I took a look at it, and when I woke up I was healed!"

Xingzi: ...That's fine! Anyway, I won't have to suffer by showing my teeth.

Yuan didn't see Hu Tou Hu Nian, and asked the two sisters in confusion: "Where are the third and fourth brothers?"

The rabbit said angrily: "Who cares about them? They've probably been beaten into the ditch!"

Yuan was confused: "What?!!!"

Xingzi told Yuan unhappily, "The children in the village have been playing with Fubao these days. The third and fourth brothers couldn't find anyone else, so they went to play with Fubao and the others."

The rabbit's words were purely a heartfelt wish, spoken in anger.

What happened to the third and fourth brothers was something Yuan could never have imagined.

After all, Third Aunt always secretly told Hutou, Hunao and Tuzi to stay away from the people from the second wife's house, especially Fubao, because she also felt that the second wife's house was a bit unlucky.

Ever since the fourth wife always got into trouble, Rabbit has never liked the second wife.

He also felt that what Fourth Aunt said about whoever gets close to the Second House being unlucky was very reasonable. Plus, since he couldn't stand Fu Bao, Tu Zi always kept his distance from everyone in the Second House.

Not to mention Xingzi from the fourth room.

Originally, Hu Tou and Hu Nao didn't like Fu Bao a little bit, because they thought Fu Bao was selfish and only thought about himself when he had delicious food, leaving his big brother and the others to watch.

But the eldest brothers are happy about it, so Hu Tou Hu Nao just dislikes and dislikes Fu Bao a little bit.

The two of them also felt that their second aunt was always making the house uneasy and was very annoying, so they kept their distance from the second wife.

Now, in order to find friends to play with, I have actually changed my preferences.

If Rabbit and Xingzi hadn't said this, Yuan wouldn't have believed it.

At this time, Mrs. Yang called out from the main house, "Eldest wife, A-Yuan, come here."

I originally wanted to go see my third and fourth brothers.

But when Yuan heard his grandmother calling him, he gave up the idea and ran into the house.

Rabbit, Xingzi took a curious look, but saw that grandma had closed the doors and windows, so they couldn't see the fun, so they went to feed the chickens hand in hand.

A Yuan dreamed about his aunt. Old Mrs. Yang thought about it for a long time and had some vague guesses in her mind, but she was not sure.

So he called his granddaughter in and prepared to let Yuan take a nap and have a dream.

A Yuan would not lie to them, and besides, the old man was the only one in the family who knew something about her sister.

But she didn't know what she looked like, let alone know that she was a coward, so Old Mrs. Yang didn't doubt the truth of the dream at all.

It’s just a pity that my sister didn’t come to me in my dreams, but there is a saying over there that young girls or those who are weak and sick are more likely to come to me in dreams.

Old Mrs. Yang suspected that her sister came here because of her thoughts. Seeing that Yuan was by her side, she sent a dream to Yuan, so she didn't worry too much.

Li and Lao Futou, who had just heard about this from Lao Yang, also thought that this idea was reliable.

Only Yuan didn't like it, because: "I'm not sleepy!"

Even though he was pressed on the kang and covered with a warm quilt, A Yuan was still not sleepy!

After sleeping for three days, Yuan felt that he just wanted to go around the village.

Meet Lian Niang and Nian Niang, and then go see Maodan, Changwa, Sigou, Daniu and others who were driven away by Fubao last time.

And the grandmas under the big willow tree, I haven’t seen them for a long time.

She hasn't gone to see if the chicks have gained weight.

Yuan still felt that Fubao was a little scary, and wanted to go and see if his third and fourth brothers were okay.

I also want to go to the fields and pull some weeds when I have time.

A Yuan felt that she was very busy, and most importantly, she was not sleepy at all!

Old Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Li wouldn't listen to that.

Mrs. Li patted her and Mrs. Yang stroked her forehead.

Lao Futou, who often slacks off and sleeps, said with great experience:

"Yuan, close your eyes. You'll feel sleepy soon."

A Yuan didn't think this method would work. She closed her eyes and was still thinking about going out for a walk. But not long after, her consciousness became blurred and her breathing became slower and slower.

Lao Futou nodded: "He's asleep! This kid has a talent, he falls asleep faster than me!"

What kind of talent is this? A talent for laziness? A talent for taking a nap as quickly as possible when there is free time?

Old Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Li looked at him speechlessly, and watched over A Yuan quietly, ready to wait for her reaction. If something was wrong, they would wake her up immediately.
