Hehua listened for a long time, feeling extremely anxious, but no one mentioned her two sons after waiting for a long time, especially that idiot Tai Jicai, who kept laughing with his big teeth bared, and had no idea that he even had sons!
"Dad, you can't be so partial!" Hehua couldn't help it, she stopped everyone who wanted to enter the house and started complaining loudly.
"Dad, you don't just have Yongfeng as your grandson, you also have two in my family! When good things happen at home, you only think about Yongfeng and don't care about anything else. This is so unfair! Even if you want to decide who gets to go to the city to enjoy the good life, you should draw lots. How can you just give it to Yongfeng?"
Everyone frowned when they heard this. Master Tai San's face changed with anger. If he could not do anything to his daughter-in-law, his pipe would have been "taken out" long ago!
Tai Jisheng's wife rarely spoke a word and explained, "Sister-in-law, Sixth Uncle's family needs help to take care of Yongning. It's not a blessing to keep Yongning company and run errands. It requires work!
Your two boys are too young to be suitable!"
Lotus didn't care about this and just yelled back.
"Sister-in-law is really taking advantage of you. If good things are not given to your family, it would be like a loss! Yongning wants a book boy. The most he needs to do is to carry books and run errands. He doesn't have to kill or set fire to anything. Isn't that something that anyone with long arms can do? What's the difference between age and work?
Besides, Yongfeng is already a strong laborer. If he doesn't farm and harvest food at home and goes to the city, he's just being lazy! But my kid can't help at home. I can send him to Yongning to feed him and earn a few taels of silver every month. When the time comes, I..."
She hardened her heart and continued as if cutting a piece of meat, "I'll give half to my family when the time comes!"
While parents are alive, the family remains unchanged and children have no private property.
This is a rule passed down from the older generation. Not to mention grandchildren like Yongfeng who go out to work, even Tai Jicai who follows the caravan to the grassland has to give the wages he earns to the old man to be used for the family's common expenses.
At this moment, Lotus was not following the rules and only wanted to give half, and it was like alms, which was weird.
Not to mention that Tai Jisheng and his wife were angry when they heard it, even the second wife Tai Jili and Zhao Xiaohua could not help it.
Because they only had two daughters and no sons, they felt ashamed and were like invisible people at home.
But no matter what, they are all family. I can’t just stand by and watch my younger siblings being unreasonable and getting into trouble with my eldest brother’s family!
Tai Jili said tentatively, "My third daughter-in-law, that's not what I meant..."
Unfortunately, just as he started, Lotus came over and said, "Second brother, you don't have a son. When you die, do you not expect your nephew to break the pot for you?"
Tai Jili's face darkened at that moment, and he lowered his head and dared not say another word.
Zhao Xiaohua's eyes were filled with tears.
Fortunately, Tai Jisheng's wife did not let the couple feel disappointed. She said loudly, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, don't be sad. She is not the only one in the family who gave birth to a boy! When you are old, let my Yongfeng take care of you in your old age!"
Hehua jumped up immediately and wanted to start a fight with her sister-in-law.
But Tai Jicai had already seen the murderous look in his father's eyes, so he slapped his wife in the face and cursed her.
"You still have the nerve to fight for it? Don't you see what kind of people you've raised these two children to be? They don't understand any sense at all, they're even more cunning, lazy, and slippery than you! I haven't even come to settle accounts with you, but you're the first one to jump out and start trouble!"
As he spoke, he pulled the lotus and went into the house.
Needless to say, this is the beginning of "teaching your wife from behind".
Unfortunately, the effect of teaching may not be good, because after so many times of teaching, the lotus is still the same!
Master Tai San fiercely waved his pipe twice and said through gritted teeth, "From now on, when our sons marry, no matter their background or whether they bring a dowry or not, they must marry someone who is sensible and responsible. Don't marry a troublemaker like this again! Otherwise, our children will have no future, and it would be a blessing if they don't become bad people!"
The old lady felt guilty after hearing this. After all, it was she who coveted the Liu family's dowry and insisted on marrying her youngest son to Hehua. She didn't expect that she would marry such a big trouble.
Not only have they been harassed and sucked dry by the Liu family for so many years, but their two grandsons have also been taught badly!
Master Tai glared at his wife, then called his eldest grandson into the house...
Besides, the Tai family yard at the entrance of the village is also bustling because the yard is rented by people from the city.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue jumped around and shouted with joy.
"From now on, you don't have to rush back from the city on the same day. Especially in winter, it's freezing cold in the mornings and evenings!"
"That's right, I want to go and accompany my second brother to study! I can also go to the pastry shop in front and learn business from Uncle Min!"
Yang Lihua smiled and patted the two boys on the shoulders, scolding them, "Don't even think about it. Everyone in the family knows that you just want to go to the city to play under the pretext of learning skills! Just stay at home and go into the mountains to collect herbs when you have nothing to do. Don't go to the city to disturb your second brother's studies."
"Yes, studying requires quiet time. Don't interfere when you have nothing to do!" Liu Dongniang also responded, pinching the corner of her apron and asking, "Sister-in-law, should we bring some grain and food for Yongning? He doesn't know how to cook!"
Old Master Tai quickly responded, "Steward Min found a reliable maid to do Yongning's laundry and housekeeping every day, plus provide her with dinner. Even though she doesn't stay in the courtyard at night, I'm afraid Yongning would be lonely, so I've already told your Third Uncle. He'll let Yongfeng stay with Yongning to keep her company and run errands."
"Dad is so thoughtful!" Yang Lihua immediately smiled and thanked him, then said, "Just bring the firewood from home, and buy oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc. in the city. I'll just prepare bedding and clothes for Yongning!"
