Chapter 175 Moving
Lin Erniu looked at the two people who were trying to stop him. One was the woman he liked, and the other was his brother since childhood. Both of them were trying to stop him, and the anger in his heart was self-evident.
Shang Ruoting crossed her arms and looked at Lin Erniu: "Do you believe me or not? I can testify that you were a hooligan to Yang Mei?"
Lin Erniu was already angry because Shang Ruoting had ruined his good thing and punched him, and now he accused him of being a hooligan.
He struggled to break free from Tan Chen's grip, pointed at Shang Ruoting and yelled, "What do you know?"
"This is a matter between me and Yangmei." He pointed at Yangmei again and said, "If she didn't want to, why would she come here with me?"
"Who said I was willing? I came with you because you said you had something important to tell me..." Yangmei denied his words.
Tan Chen didn't want to get too involved in this matter. After all, this was an emotional dispute between Lin Erniu and Yang Mei. In his opinion, it was best for the parties involved to explain this matter clearly.
"Brother Erniu, Yangmei, Ruoting and I will go some distance. You two should talk it out!"
After saying that, he pulled Shang Ruoting and walked away together.
Shang Ruoting also knew what Tan Chen meant. What he said made sense. If Yang Mei hadn't explained it herself, Lin Erniu would not have given up.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Yang Mei and Lin Erniu finally came out. Neither of them was as excited as before, but kept their heads down.
Shang Ruoting stepped forward and took Yangmei's arm as a silent comfort. After all, it was not appropriate for her to ask too many questions at this time.
Lin Erniu walked dejectedly in front and soon disappeared.
Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen sent Yang Mei home, and asked Yang Tao to keep an eye on her before carrying the fish home.
When the two returned home, it was completely dark.
Tan Chen put the fish in a large wooden tub, and the couple washed up and returned to their room with some strawberries.
After chatting about Yangmei and Lin Erniu, I gradually fell asleep.
Three days later...
Tan Chen and Shang Ruoting got up early, finished the work in the chicken coop, and started moving.
The two of them didn't have much stuff to begin with, so Old Mrs. Shang picked out some common items.
Shang Ruoting took the cart from the chicken coop and pushed the things to the new home with Tan Chen. When they reached the center of the village, they happened to meet Tan Mingshan.
Tan Mingshan has been having a hard time recently because of the severance of his relationship with Tan Chen. When he returned home, Zou Meihua used him as a punching bag and blamed him every day for not stopping her.
Also, after Tan Kai was injured last time, he publicly reviewed his mistakes in the village for so long that his wound worsened and he still can't go out to work. Zou Meihua felt sorry for her son and scolded him at home all day long.
This made Tan Mingshan very confused and he looked much more haggard.
If there is anyone else in the Tan family who can move Tan Chen to some extent, it must be Tan Mingshan.
It was just because of recent events that he was very disappointed with Tan Mingshan, but seeing his haggard appearance, he felt somewhat uncomfortable.
So he took the initiative to greet Tan Mingshan.
"How are you doing lately?"
After all, they had severed their relationship, so it was inappropriate to call him dad. He couldn't think of what to call him, so he just spoke directly.
Tan Mingshan looked at the things in Tan Chen's car and forced a smile on his originally expressionless face.
"Are we moving?"
Tan Chen nodded: "Yes, everything over there has been sorted out."
Tan Mingshan looked at Tan Chen with mixed feelings in his heart.
"It's good to move, it's good to move, and live a good life from now on."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Tan Chen looked at his back and suddenly said, "Come over and have dinner together if you have time tonight."
Tan Mingshan paused and turned around: "Okay, I'll go over there if there's a chance tonight."
Tan Chen could understand what he meant by "there is a chance", which was that he wanted to do something behind Zou Meihua's back.
Shang Ruoting didn't find it strange that Tan Chen asked Tan Mingshan to have dinner with him. After all, they had been father and son for so many years, it was impossible for them to have no feelings for each other.
The two of them transported all their belongings to the new house in three batches. The furniture in the new house was all newly made, so they just had to tidy it up.
They arranged Old Lady Shang's room on the east side, and they lived in the room on the west side. After all, in that era, people paid attention to the rule that the east side was bigger and the west side was smaller.
The two rooms are built symmetrically, with the same layout inside. In addition, Tan Chen specially installed glass windows to allow for better lighting.
As soon as you walk into the house, it is bright and gives you a refreshing feeling.
After tidying up the room, the two returned to Old Lady Shang's place, brought the poultry and four half-grown pigs, and placed them in a shed specially built in the backyard.
Old Mrs. Shang also gave the only big iron pot that had not been moved away to Tan Chen, locked the yard where she had lived for more than ten years, and went to their new home with her granddaughter and grandson-in-law.
It was already afternoon when they brought the big iron pot to the new house. There is a custom here that one must burn the bottom of the pot when moving into a new house.
The meaning of burning the bottom of the pot is to bring the joy and wealth from the old house into the new house.
