Upon seeing Song Laosan, the villagers quickly quickened their pace and ran away.
After all, Song Laosan had even killed his own daughter; he was violent and ruthless, and no one dared to approach him.
This was originally the respect that Song Laosan wanted, but now he felt frustrated.
He dismounted and entered the courtyard, looking dejected.
While Mrs. Shen was cooking in the kitchen, Old Mrs. Song saw her son return and said, "Use that piece of pork belly to stir-fry with cabbage, and also beat four eggs."
The Song family was secretly delighted; it was good that Song Laosan was back, so they could eat more meat.
The eldest and second eldest Song brothers were sent to dig roads in the mountains. Because they were lazy, they were whipped and kicked every day. After returning home and recuperating for a few days, they were still hunched over and could not walk properly.
As soon as Song Laosan entered the courtyard, they immediately surrounded him.
"Third brother, look at your demeanor and your abilities. As your eldest brother, I am very pleased."
“Yes, Third Brother, now that you’re capable, why don’t you let the two of us older brothers become captains in the camp? If the three of us brothers work together, we can break through any obstacle, and no one will dare to oppose the Song family,” said Song the Second.
Song Laosan looked at his two older brothers, a hint of sarcasm creeping onto his lips.
"Big brother, second brother, let alone captains, you two are not even qualified as ordinary soldiers in your current state."
He climbed his way up to the rank of captain for so many years, and they just ask him for it. It's ridiculous.
"Where are you not qualified? Whether you can be the leader or not is up to you." The eldest brother was unhappy, but he didn't dare to lash out at the third brother. He could only speak politely, "It's just about giving orders. It's not like we're going to war. Even if we're disabled and in wheelchairs, we can manage. Third brother, now that you're successful, you can't forget to help your two older brothers."
“I say, Third Brother, they say that when one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. You can’t just think about yourself. You’re all that, while my eldest brother and I have accomplished nothing. We also want to be as powerful as you,” said Song Lao Er.
Seeing that they were talking nonsense more and more, Song Laosan's face turned cold: "Big brother, second brother, you should just stay at home and not think about these things. It's not as simple as you think."
Seeing this, Old Lady Song quickly sent Song the eldest and second eldest brothers away.
"Third brother, don't listen to your two older brothers' nonsense. I have something on my mind that I need to resolve right now."
"Mother, tell me."
Old Mrs. Song said, "It's that kind of plastic film that brat bought from foreign businessmen. It can be used to build greenhouses to keep crops warm and plant another season of rice. Our family and the Qiao family have fallen out to this extent. Do you think I should buy that kind of plastic film?"
"The Qiao family not only robbed our furniture, but also caused us to lose so much money. I wish I could tear them to pieces and still give them money to buy protective film."
“No need to buy it,” Song Laosan said. “Qiao Lian’er is your granddaughter. How can a granddaughter ask her grandmother for money? I will go and ask her directly.”
He originally intended to talk to Qiao Lian'er this time as well.
Dissatisfied with their situation, Song Lao Da and Song Lao Er avoided Song Lao San and hid in a room where crickets chirped.
"He's had it easy, refusing to help his own elder brother. He's selfish and self-serving. The rumors were true. Third brother is a heartless wretch," said the eldest brother, Song, with a cold face.
"And second brother, you'd better watch out. Third brother is back, and he might try to take your son away from you."
Upon hearing this, Song Lao Er became wary: "It was agreed on the day we kicked Qiao Shi out that Rui'er is my child, and he will be the one to take care of me in my old age and see me off when I die. If he dares to take her from me, I will fight him to the death."
"Second brother, don't be impulsive. He's powerful and influential now. We're afraid we'll be subdued by his men before we even get close to him," said Boss Song, his eyes icy.
"I heard he even killed his own daughter, so we brothers would definitely do the same."
