Chapter 48 Ginseng
This old man was very handsome when he was young, but now he is an old man. He is no longer young and can’t compete with Old Qian in terms of appearance and figure!
The surging sense of crisis almost drowned Uncle Tang.
When Uncle Tang thought about how Old Qiantou had robbed Aunt Zhang and was showing off in front of him, he felt like a huge rock was pressing down on his chest and he couldn't breathe at all!
"Well, Tiantian, please go out for a moment. I have something to say to your grandma!"
Tang Tian said, "Okay!" Then she said to Aunt Zhang, "Grandma, please come to my room later!"
Aunt Zhang nodded in agreement, and Tang Tian left.
After Tang Tian left, Aunt Zhang didn't even look at Uncle Tang. She turned around and sat on the edge of the bed. Uncle Tang slid to his knees and rushed over to hug Aunt Zhang's legs: "Old woman, I won't divorce you, even if you kill me!"
"Don't leave me!"
"If you don't want me, I'll die!"
"It's not right for me to save some private money. I just want to have some money in my hands, so that I can give you two feet of cloth to make you new clothes during festivals or something!"
Aunt Zhang swung her legs twice but failed to shake the old man off. Instead, he rubbed her trouser legs with snot and tears, which made Aunt Zhang feel sick.
"Get lost, you know where your savings went, what's wrong with you?
Oh, where is the cloth?
You old man, you are just talking bullshit! ”
Mr. Tang was stuck. He stammered, "I...I...I haven't saved enough, have I?"
"Every time I'm about to save enough, something happens..."
Aunt Zhang said sarcastically, "Yes, it's always your second child who gets into trouble!"
"You are so capable. I have spent hundreds of dollars on your second son over the years!"
"How much will you spend on me? How much will you spend on this whole family?"
Uncle Tang felt guilty and short of breath. He avoided Aunt Zhang's gaze and said weakly, "I... I earned work points... I..."
Aunt Zhang suddenly exerted her strength and kicked Uncle Tang so hard that he squatted on his buttocks. She stood up and pointed at Uncle Tang and yelled, "Marry a man and you will get clothes and food!
What’s up!
Do you still want me to support you without earning work points?
Or did I not go to the fields to earn work points? ”
"Get out of here!"
"I get annoyed just by looking at you!"
When Aunt Zhang got angry, Uncle Tang didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He thought that since the old woman didn't mention divorce again, he should just get out!
"Okay!"
"I'm leaving!"
Uncle Tang didn't even stand up and really wanted to "get out".
He rolled to the door, stood up and opened it, and suddenly several people fell into the room.
Tang Jiandang touched his head and glared at Tang Jianjun awkwardly: "Hey, what, why did you push me, second brother!"
Tang Jianjun said with a guilty conscience: "Brother, I didn't push you, it was my sister-in-law who pushed me!"
Dong Qiaogu: "That's because the second daughter-in-law squeezed me!"
Lu Jinhua: "I... I sprained my ankle..."
"No, Tang Jianjun, didn't you say you were going to the toilet? Why are you here at the door of my parents' room?"
Tang Jianjun: "Yes, yes, yes, I have to go to the toilet. It's dark in the middle of the night and I didn't notice it!"
Tang Jiandang: "I'm going to the toilet too!"
Dong Qiaogu: "I'll go too!"
Lu Jinhua: "Sister-in-law, wait for me!"
Uncle Tang:! ! ! !
Ahhhhh!
His old face!
He is not alive anymore!
"My dear wife..." He turned to look at Aunt Zhang pitifully. Aunt Zhang pushed him out of the door with a dark face, 'Bang! 'Slam the door shut.
Uncle Tang stepped back in a hurry and almost broke his nose.
Why……
I can only go and hang out with my grandchildren.
From now on, he will have no place in this family!
It’s all the second brother’s fault!
Damn it, get up early tomorrow and beat him up!
In the next yard, Uncle Tang Er tossed and turned in bed and sneezed several times in succession.
Really, who is whispering about him behind his back in the middle of the night!
After a while, Aunt Zhang went to Tang Tian's room.
As a result, Tang Tian showed her the ginseng she had dug in the afternoon.
Aunt Zhang:! ! ! !
She took the ginseng carefully and was so excited!
Ginseng!
This is ginseng!
Something that can only be found in the deep mountains!
Her daughter Tiantian was actually dug up at the very edge of the mountain!
The old lady was so excited that she quickly put the ginseng carefully on the table. She sighed and said, "When I was a child, it was still the old society. Someone from my mother's family dug up a ginseng that was smaller than yours and said it was a hundred-year-old ginseng. He sold it for three hundred dollars.
The man's family was so poor that they were urinating blood, but suddenly they made such a huge fortune and were so happy that they didn't know what to do.
But the news leaked out, and the money was robbed in the street before he could even hold it in his hands.
He was stabbed several times and died on the spot.
Later, his family went to the police station to file a complaint, but because they couldn’t pay the filial tribute, they were kicked out…”
"Damn old society!" the old lady cursed at the end.
Tang Tian nodded and agreed: "Yes, the evil old society is a society where people are eaten without leaving any bones!"
“The new society is still the best!”
"Grandma, we're not selling this ginseng, we're keeping it!"
Aunt Zhang had the same idea. This thing couldn't be bought even if you had money. "Grandma will dry it secretly and give it to you as a dowry later!"
Tang Tian: ...
Well, it’s a dowry, and she can just secretly leave it to her grandmother in the future anyway!
"Oh, my dear, you are so lucky to have found such a good ginseng!"
"My dear, you are my lucky charm!"
When Aunt Zhang was happy, she hugged Tang Tian and called her treasure.
Tang Tian struck while the iron was hot and whispered to Aunt Zhang: "Grandma, Grandpa gave so much subsidy to Second Master's family, don't you have even an IOU?"
Aunt Zhang said, "Some of the ones that are openly given have IOUs, but the ones your grandfather gave privately don't have IOUs!"
There were several times when the amount of money and grain was too large to be dealt with by her, so the second wife had to write an IOU hypocritically.
Tang Tian said coquettishly: "Grandma, let's go get the money and food back. The money and food in our house didn't come from the wind. We don't want to let these ungrateful wolves take advantage of us!"
Aunt Zhang hugged her a little tighter: "We two, grandma and granddaughter, are thinking alike!"
"We'll go collect the debt tomorrow!"
Aunt Zhang said this with some gnashing of teeth.
Tang Tian: "Yes, let's get back the part with the IOU first, but do we need to find someone to be a witness?"
Aunt Zhang: "Then we'll ask the brigade accountant to help bear witness, and we'll also need two people to weigh the grain."
After the grandparents and grandchildren had discussed it, Aunt Zhang went back to her room to sleep.
Tang Tian was still a little excited and couldn't sleep in bed.
Suddenly a thought came to my mind: What is my fifth uncle doing?
I want to call him to ask about the situation, but how?
What to say?
Will calling him interfere with his work?
Tang Tian pulled the quilt to cover her face, and twisted herself into a knot with her legs clamped in the quilt. It was so annoying!
