Chapter 41 My grandpa is so scary!
Of course Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue wanted to go to the city to spend money. With their grandfather's support, they both got their own pocket money, and their parents didn't say they would confiscate it.
Such a rare opportunity to be the master of the house, naturally cannot be missed...
At dinner, the young and old talked about this and all looked at the old man eagerly.
Especially the boys all looked flattering, as if they were afraid of being left behind.
The old man said, "I know about this. Let me think about it and we'll talk about it tomorrow morning."
Tai Jiye was anxious and wanted to urge him, but he shrank his neck because of the old man's glare.
After dinner, everyone sat in the main hall to while away the time as usual.
The old man took his granddaughter to the east room, and the two of them sat on the kang, fiddling with the little straw things together.
Tai Yongning is very handy. Because he has difficulty walking and cannot go out, he makes small gadgets for his sister when he has nothing to do.
Zhuzhu’s favorite thing was a small straw carriage. She would pull it with her chubby hands and run around in front of the mountain.
The old man puffed on his empty pipe and asked his granddaughter tentatively.
"Zhuzhu, look at the color on grandpa's hair."
This statement is really easy to cause ambiguity, but Zhuzhu, a baby who has just learned to speak, is the easiest to understand.
She tilted her little head and stared at her grandfather with her big eyes for a long time, then scratched his head a few times and pouted.
"When I was eating meat, it was white, but why is it gray now? I don't want it to be gray!"
The fat girl was a little anxious and turned over to get off the ground. She was obviously worried about her parents and brothers.
The old man quickly hugged her and opened the door a crack so that she could see clearly.
"Zhuzhu, did you see it clearly? Can you tell grandpa about it?"
Zhuzhu nodded vigorously, stretched out her fat carrot fingers, and counted them one by one.
"Second uncle, third uncle, eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother are all white. Daddy, mom, second aunt, and second brother are all gray!"
The old man thought about it quickly and had a vague guess.
Zhuzhu said that when eating meat, it should be meat porridge in the morning.
In other words, in the morning, everyone in the family was fine, but now things have changed.
Anyone who wants to enter the city will have a white aura on his head, which means there is no danger.
As for those who stayed behind, their luck was gray, indicating that something bad was about to happen...
A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and the pipe in his hand was almost deformed.
Zhuzhu was naughty. Just as she grabbed her grandfather's beard with her chubby little hands, her grandfather's face changed before she could exert any force.
She quickly and quietly withdrew her chubby hand.
Grandpa is so scary!
The old man came to his senses and saw his granddaughter curled up in a ball like a fat mouse peeking out its head. He quickly coaxed her with a few words and then went out to give her to Yang Lihua.
"I'm going to your third uncle's house and will be back soon."
"Dad, it's getting dark outside. I'll stay with you." Tai Jizu was filial and stood up to follow him, but the old man waved him back.
Tai Jizu had no choice but to close the door and whispered, "What's wrong with Dad recently? His temper is getting weirder and weirder."
Tai Jiye chuckled and replied, "Dad's temper has never been better!"
Tai Jizong happened to be sitting next to him. He raised his hand and patted his brother, complaining, "It's because you always make Dad angry. If you get married and have children soon, Dad won't have to worry about anything."
Yang Lihua also took the opportunity to ask, "Third brother, what kind of girl do you like? Tell me in detail. Sister-in-law will ask around for you in the spring!"
Tai Jiye was being watched by his brothers, sisters-in-law, and even his nephews and nieces. He blushed for a rare moment, dropped the straw in his hand, and ran away.
Everyone couldn't help laughing, and they forgot about the old man's weirdness...
After breakfast the next morning, the old man took Tai Jizong aside and gave him a few instructions before letting his children and grandchildren go into the city.
When people in the village heard about it, they also came together and planned to go to the city to buy some daily necessities.
So, a group of more than ten people left the village.
As the days slowly approach spring, the north wind blowing on my face doesn't seem so frustrating anymore.
Everyone had some money in their pockets, and their stomachs were full of hot food, so they had extra strength on their feet.
It took less than half the time to reach the city.
The dilapidated courtyard in the north of the city had been uninhabited for a few days, and a lot of residual snow had fallen.
After they tidied up a bit and heated the kang, they went for a walk separately.
Tai Jiye scooped a bucket of water, smoothed his hair as if it had been licked by a calf, and was about to go out happily with his two nephews.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue also tried hard to clean their cotton shoes, tucked in their jacket sleeves that were stained with snot, and then imitated their uncle and smoothed their hair, looking like two energetic servants.
Seeing that Tai Jizong had no intention of leaving, Tai Jiye was puzzled and asked, "Second brother, why don't you go to Dashiqiao to take a look? I heard that it's lively over there, and there's no work to do. It would be nice to go for a walk."
Tai Yongan's eyes sparkled when he heard this, but Tai Jizong shook his head and replied, "I have arrangements, don't worry about them. But remember, you must return half an hour before the city gates close."
Tai Jiye immediately protested, "How can that be? I wanted to go have some tea with Manager Min! The Min family is going to renovate their house in the spring, and I wanted to take over that job for you."
Tai Jizong insisted, lowering his voice and saying, "Come back if I tell you to. This is what Dad arranged."
Tai Jiye frowned, and finally nodded, "Okay, I'll try my best."
After saying that, he took the two boys out.
Tai Yongan was so anxious that he jumped up and down, "Second Uncle, let's go out for a walk. I also want to buy pine nut candy for Zhuzhu!"
Tai Jizong nodded and said, "I am going out, but wherever I go, just follow me and don't make any trouble."
