Chapter 242 Jiang Taigong Fishing
Tang Qingshan walked inside while talking. Madam Lin chased him and said, "Did my father tell you? No, no, my father doesn't know either! Then how did you know? Why didn't you tell me? Hey, tell me now!!"
"Why should I say that?" Tang Qingshan's mouth slightly curved: "It's fun to see you pretending."
Madam Lin: “…”
In this situation, I just want to sing a song for them: cold dog food is randomly slapped on the face...
My parents never show their affection to each other, but for some reason, sometimes they just feel so sweet.
Tuanzi opened his mouth and laughed foolishly, the Tang brothers also had smiles on their faces, and even Yan Shenjue, who could not express his emotions, could not help but smile.
Only the fifth brother said to his mother in frustration: "Mother, you are so bad at naming! You all give names that sound the same! I can recognize them even if you call them! Can't you change to a Tang jar or a Tang jar? Dad will definitely not recognize them then!"
Madam Lin: “…”
Brother Tang held back his laughter and held his brother's head, pushing him in, and then everyone served their dishes and ate.
After eating, Fourth Brother Tang was the first to discover: "Today's dishes are all delicious, and the fried pork slices are especially fragrant."
"Are you hungry?" Brother Tang said casually, "But the fish is especially delicious today."
"It's delicious!" The twins said, "Today's dishes are delicious."
Yan Shenjue smiled and said, "Maybe it's because today's dishes are all made up?"
Madam Lin laughed and poked him on the forehead: "How dare you tease me, kid."
Brother Tang asked, "What do you mean by makeshift?"
Yan Shenjue was amused by her affectionate and loving little gesture. He smiled and told the story of the interaction between the mother and daughter, and the people who heard it laughed.
After everyone had almost finished eating, Tang Qingshan said, "Mr. Shen will have his birthday tomorrow. Let's go to the county town early in the morning to buy birthday gifts first, and then go to the Shen family. If we come out early, we will go to look at furniture. If we come out late, we will go the day after tomorrow."
Everyone agreed, and Brother Tang asked again: "What should we buy?"
Tang Qingshan said, "Buy some food and wine. Mr. Shen may not like the longevity screens and camphor trees, and they will seem awkward."
Brother Tang nodded, then remembered to ask, "Dad, are you going to take this courtyard over again?"
Tang Qingshan hummed.
Brother Tang said, "But there are only three rooms here. Grandpa and my uncle are a couple, so there won't be enough space for them, right?"
Tang Qingshan said: "Let's talk about it when you come. I'm thinking..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard someone outside say, "Brother Qingshan? Brother Qingshan, are you home?"
Tang Qingshan responded and went out.
Tang Shitou was standing outside. As soon as he responded, he came in and said with a smile, "Are you eating?"
Although the two families were not on good terms, they were not at loggerheads. Tang Qingshan said calmly, "Have you eaten? Let's share some."
"No, no," Tang Shitou looked at the delicious food on the table and was a little greedy. He swallowed his saliva and said, "Brother Qingshan, I have something to ask you."
Tang Qingshan said, "Please sit down."
Mrs. Lin lit a candle. She was afraid that people would feel sleepy if they drank tea so late at night, and since people in the countryside didn't care about that, she just brought each person a bowl of water.
Tang Shitou didn't drink either, and said, "I heard that Brother Qingshan bought this courtyard?"
"Yes," Tang Qingshan said, "I want to invite my old Taishan to live here for a while."
Tang Shitou said with a heartfelt attitude: "Brother Qingshan, how can a son-in-law take care of his father-in-law in his old age? Besides, he is a foreigner after all, and not from the same clan. How can he live in our clan's old house..."
Madam Lin really wants to say it’s none of your business.
But Tang Qingshan raised his head and gave her a look that said "calm down". After being married for many years, they still had this tacit understanding. Although Mrs. Lin didn't know why, she still endured it and didn't say anything.
Tuanzi sat on Lin Niangzi's lap, facing the other side, and saw Tang Qingshan's relaxed demeanor. For some reason, she felt a sense of... Jiang Taigong fishing. She watched the show with her eyes wide open.
Tang Qingshan simply said: "There are many people from other places and surnames in the village, not to mention that the clan leader has agreed."
Tang Shitou choked, and seeing that this trick didn't work, he said, "Actually, this is what happened. You know, my uncle lived in this yard before you moved in, so I had been thinking that I would buy this place after you moved into the new house. Who would have thought that you would act so quickly?"
Listen! The same words sound particularly unpleasant to them when they say them.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Madam Lin said with a fake smile: "Brother Shitou, what you said is not right. This courtyard has been empty for several years before we moved in. Besides, who knows what you are thinking about except you? We are not the worms in your stomach... What do you mean by acting quickly? If you don't know, you would think we cut off your beard."
You know what, that’s exactly what Tang Shitou thought. He just felt that his beard had been cut off!
But when Madam Lin said this, she felt embarrassed. The key point was that Tang Shitou couldn't afford to offend her family now... He immediately said awkwardly, "I didn't mean that, sister-in-law. I'm just a rough guy who can't talk."
Madam Lin smiled and said, "It's OK if it's not. I don't think you would be so unreasonable."
Tang Shitou: “…”
He was so angry but had no other choice but to pretend that he hadn't heard anything. He continued, "It's because things haven't been going well for my family lately. I keep thinking about my uncle when he was alive. I'm thinking about buying this house back before it's transferred. How about you, Brother Qingshan, give it to me?"
Tang Qingshan said calmly, "Not good. There are still several ownerless old houses in the clan. You can just pick another one. Why do you have to ask me to give it up?"
Tang Shitou said anxiously: "Brother Qingshan, I'll be frank, I like this courtyard."
Tang Qingshan still shook his head firmly: "This is really not possible. My courtyard..." He seemed to be about to blurt out something, but swallowed it back.
Tuanzi: “…”
I never expected that my daddy is so cunning and good at acting! Tuanzi added a little drama to himself in a baby voice: "Xinbao likes this yard, Xinbao wants to ask grandpa and uncle to live here!"
Tang Qingshan's mouth corners curved slightly.
Now, even a straightforward person like Mrs. Lin could see it.
She was speechless.
The people in Tang Shitou's family are really the best. They just love to be smart.
Tang Shitou obviously believed the rumor about "Taisui Soil". He felt that he was the only one who had thought of this and was the only one concerned about it, so he just wanted to make a fortune quietly and wait for them to move in.
I didn't expect Tang Qingshan to buy it before he moved. This purchase... actually confirmed the rumor. He couldn't sit still anymore!
