Chapter 9: Kindness is taken as an insult!
Unfortunately, how could the old man believe it!
Seeing the pipe falling down with the wind, Tai Jiye jumped up and ran away.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue were listening to the fun in the east room just now, but they didn't feel satisfied, so they carried their sister out and blocked their uncle's way.
Tai Jiye rubbed the little chick on Zhuzhu's head and said, "Zhuzhu, wait for your uncle to come back and get you something delicious!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he had already run out of the yard.
Mr. Tai stomped his feet in anger!
Nine times out of ten you lose when gambling!
He has always been worried about his son, afraid that he would mess around outside and develop bad habits. Now his nightmare has come true!
Mr. Tai Sanye and others found it difficult to leave, so they pulled him aside to persuade him.
"Sixth Brother, don't be angry! Jiye is smart and will definitely not make a big mistake."
"Yes, Sixth Uncle. Jiye is very capable, and I'm afraid he's doing this just to make more friends. He's just joining in the fun in the casino, it's impossible for him to lose a lot of money!"
"That's right, Sixth Uncle. He just wants to lose money, and we don't have any!"
I have to say, the last sentence is heartbreaking, but it really works.
Old Master Tai managed to calm down and drank water in big gulps of anger.
Tai Jizu and Tai Jizon, the two older brothers, felt sorry for their younger brother but were also afraid that their father would get angry. They were caught in the middle and were in a dilemma.
Instead, Yang Lihua hurried back to the house, took out an old purse, and was about to go out.
Zhuzhu didn't know where her mother was going, so her chubby little hands pulled her mother's cotton-padded jacket.
In a hurry, Yang Lihua could only hold her daughter in her arms, wrap her in a cotton jacket and go out.
The cold wind was almost as sharp as a knife, blowing over them instantly, causing both mother and daughter to shrink their necks due to the cold.
But Yang Lihua did not stop and chased out of the village.
Tai Jiye walked on the road, shivering with cold.
He slapped his mouth hard. Why did he say that? He made his father angry.
Otherwise, it would be nice to have a meal at home, sleep for a night, and then go back to the city tomorrow.
The friend he was staying with in the city wasn't home today, so where would he stay?
Just when I was worrying, someone suddenly called out from behind.
He turned around and stopped, shouting happily, "Sister-in-law, does Dad want me to go back?"
Yang Lihua sighed and said helplessly, "Dad is furious, how could he let you go back?"
Tai Jiye was disappointed and explained in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, I really didn't gamble! I just... I just wanted to join in the fun.
"When people go to the toilet or take a break for tea, I help them draw a few cards. If I win, they will give me some small change...
"Go back and talk to Dad for me. Don't let him get sick from anger. Okay?"
Yang Lihua nodded and did not refuse.
When she entered the Tai family, her brother-in-law was still young. Although he was nominally her younger brother, she actually treated him like a half-child most of the time.
Moreover, although my brother-in-law acted a little impulsively, he was not a bad person and was dedicated to protecting his family.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll talk Dad out of it when I get back. Actually, Dad knows you're afraid of gambling, but if I don't scare you a few times, I'm afraid you'll get into big trouble in the future."
Yang Lihua stuffed the purse in her hand into her brother-in-law's pocket and said, "Here are a few dozen coins. Keep them for emergencies. If you have a hard time outside, remember to come home. There's always food for you at home."
Tai Jiye subconsciously pinched his purse, and his nose felt a little sour.
A few dozen coins isn't much, but I don't know how long my sister-in-law has been saving it...
Zhuzhu looked at her mother and uncle talking curiously. Perhaps because she had been sticking her head out for too long, she sneezed loudly out of the cold.
"A-choo!"
She couldn't help but shrink into her mother's cotton jacket again.
Woo woo, it’s too cold!
Why is my stomach growling?
She wanted her mother to go home quickly, but she found that her mother's neck was purple from the cold because she had unbuttoned her cotton jacket to protect her, and her body was shivering slightly.
Zhuzhu was heartbroken and tried hard to hug her mother tightly with her little hands to shield her from the wind.
It would be great if I could sew a thick and warm cotton-padded jacket for my mother!
When Yang Lihua saw her daughter hugging her tightly, she thought her daughter was frozen and regretted carrying her out.
She quickly gave her brother-in-law a few words and was about to go home.
As a result, two carriages came running from afar.
Originally, the road at the entrance of the village was a small dirt road. It was fine in the summer, but it was covered with heavy snow in the winter, so you had to be very careful when walking on it.
But the first carriage seemed to be frightened and ran wildly, with the second carriage chasing behind.
Tai Jiye was frightened and pulled his sister-in-law and niece aside.
The first carriage rushed past them and fell directly into the snow ditch.
With a loud bang, the flying snow brought up by the carriage hit Tai Jiye's head and face, making him jump in anger.
"Don't you see what kind of road this is? How can you run so fast?"
Yang Lihua, however, heard the noise of a woman and a child in the carriage and quickly called out to Tai Jiye, "Third brother, please help save them."
Just at this moment, the second carriage also arrived and stopped.
Unfortunately, besides the coachman, there was also a woman and two maids getting off the carriage.
The maidservant saw the carriage overturned and was only anxious, with no other options.
In the end, Tai Jiye helped the coachmen to lift the carriage and rescued a woman in a gorgeous dress and a fox fur coat, a boy of three or four years old, and an old woman who was serving her.
Several people were still in shock, but perhaps because of something urgent, the woman didn't even have time to be afraid. She picked up the child and got on the second carriage.
She ordered the maids and servants, "Bring me the things I use most often, and leave the rest alone. Unload the horses, and let's continue on our journey."
The maids and servants obeyed the order and got busy.
Tai Jiye could only help the driver to continue lifting the carriage, his face red and neck thick with exhaustion.
Yang Lihua could only wrap her cotton jacket tightly and stand aside to protect her daughter.
Zhuzhu rarely saw strangers, so she tried hard to get out of her mother's arms to see what was happening.
Yang Lihua was both angry and amused, and wanted to curse but couldn't bring herself to do so.
Zhuzhu finally climbed onto her mother's shoulder. Her big dark eyes blinked as she looked at the woman, then she smiled with her eyebrows curved.
For some reason, the woman's anxiety suddenly faded a lot.
She looked at Tai Jiye who was helping her and guessed that they were from nearby villagers, so she said to Yang Lihua, "Thank you very much for your help. I was in a hurry and didn't have anything to thank you for.
"If you don't mind, this carriage and the odds and ends in it are yours."
Yang Lihua was stunned for a moment and wanted to refuse, but the maids and servants had already packed up and got on the car, blocking the way for the woman and the child.
The driver also harnessed the horses and continued to gallop on the road.
Yang Lihua was left holding Zhuzhu, and Tai Jiye was left, looking at the carriage in the snow ditch in a daze.
Zhuzhu, on the other hand, didn't wait for her mother and uncle to speak for a long time before pointing to an overturned box outside the carriage.
“Click, click!”
Yang Lihua and Tai Jiye came back to their senses and looked over, only to find that it was a box full of snacks, half lying on the snow.
Tai Jiye was surprised. He ran over in two or three steps, leaned over the car window to take a look, and couldn't help but cheering in surprise...
