Chapter 97 What do you like to do?

The fourth brother hugged his sister and talked for a long time.

He was very deft with his hands, and while coaxing the girl, he pulled a piece of grass and weaved a grasshopper. Soon, Dai Tuanzi started to play with the grasshopper. She knew that her fourth brother had bad legs, so when he ran, he would run around him. The brother and sister had a lot of fun playing.

Brother Tang and his brother sat in front of the door, looking over there from afar.

The little boy laughed so hard that Brother Tang couldn't help laughing as well: "Little brat, you worry too much."

The second brother said, "Haven't you noticed? Although Xinbao doesn't understand much, she can sense emotions. Every time Dad is upset, he can't show it on his face, but Xinbao can sense it."

"Why are there so many things?" Brother Tang said nonchalantly, "Forget about Dad, but how old is Silang? Is he unhappy? Why didn't I see that?"

The second brother glanced at him and said, "Then Shilang likes to do business. Did you see that?"

Brother Tang paused.

He is not a meticulous person, but if you really want to point it out, he can certainly see it.

The fourth brother likes doing business very much. He likes money, but he likes the process of making money even more.

Like him, although he has always been accompanying his brother to sell candy wrappers and has never had any conflicts with customers, but to be honest, if he really encounters those who want to take advantage of others or those naughty children who throw tantrums, he will smile on the surface but be very angry in his heart.

But Fourth Brother doesn’t like that. He likes this very much… I may not be able to handle it this time, but I summarize my experience time after time, and handle it better each time… This feeling, of course, he prefers the feeling of learning slowly through practice, becoming more proficient day by day, selling better and making more money day by day.

Although he understood, Brother Tang didn't care much and said casually: "Why think so much!"

"Brother!" the second brother suddenly called him.

The eldest brother Tang turned his head and looked at him. The second brother said seriously: "Brother, I feel that I have been feeling much better recently. The medicine is effective. My uncle said that I will be fully recovered in three or four months, and then I will slowly recuperate, and I will be able to be like a normal person in a year."

"Hmm?" Brother Tang didn't understand what he meant: "Yeah, what's wrong?"

The second elder brother said slowly, "Tang Sanshui can't turn over, and the remaining three people can kill themselves. Don't pay attention to them anymore... When I am well, I will go to school. The ginseng wine is about to be ready, and Dad can drink it too. After the new year, Dad and I will be well again."

Brother Tang was slightly startled, his thick black eyebrows slightly frowned, looking at his brother's clear eyes.

The second brother's voice was very soft: "Xinbaoer is a lucky child, we will all be getting better and better...so brother, you don't have to worry about anything at home."

He paused and said, "Silang likes to do business, I like to study, brother, what do you like to do?"

Brother Tang suddenly fell silent.

He was only thirteen years old when his family returned to the countryside.

Having seen the prosperity of the provincial capital, he suddenly had nothing. Due to his filial piety, he could not do anything for Mrs. Liu. He could only use all his energy and risk his life to protect his seriously injured father, his sick mother who had miscarried, and his younger brothers who were in a state of panic. He dared not think back to those days.

So until now, he seemed to have gotten used to being the eldest son and the eldest brother, and got used to what the family needed him to do... and had never thought about what he liked to do. This question was too much of a luxury for him.

Actually, I have thought about it.

He had thought about it before. When it was late at night and he felt inspired, he had thought about this question before.

But no matter how ambitious one is, in the end, he is still blocked by three words... worried.

He was really worried. He was worried about his parents, his brother, and even more so his sister... Xinbaoer was a lucky doll. He was worried about her, her strange abilities, and if anyone knew about them...

I'm worried about many things.

His thick black eyelashes were deeply knitted, and he finally held his brother's head roughly and rubbed it twice: "You think about so many things every day, no wonder you are in poor health!"

He stood up and walked over, picked up his sister and put her on his shoulder, then strode towards the mountain. From afar he could hear the little girl's nervous and excited screams and laughter.

The second brother had a smile on his face.

He knew that his brother was worried, so he just said a few words now, asking him to keep it in mind. After the new year, if everything went well and they were well again, he could naturally do whatever he wanted.

Brother Tang took his sister to the mountain for a trip and met many people carrying sea buckthorns down the mountain. As expected, once they found a place, they rushed to grab them and picked all of them, whether ripe or not.

But this is not surprising. After all, the things on the mountain that no one owns have to be snatched. If so many people don't snatch them, they will be gone. If you don't pick them, others will, so it's a vicious cycle.

Brother Tang pretended not to see it and took his sister directly to find the cicada monkey.

It was already late in August, the cicadas and monkeys had all climbed up the trees, and it hadn’t rained, but because the mountains were very humid, the ground was still very loose.

Xinbao is an expert at finding cicada monkeys. It was a rare moment that the little boy was not in bad shape. She squatted on the ground and picked one out with her chubby little fingers. She lifted her little paws and pulled it out, a chubby one, so quickly that it seemed as if the cicada monkey was planted by her.

Brother Tang didn't bring a handkerchief, so he could only cover his lapel. He followed behind and took care of his sister all the way, and he also picked up a few.

Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him. Brother Tang turned around and saw Tang Juanzi walking towards him. When she saw him turn around, she smiled shyly, tucked her hair behind her ears, and said, "Brother Tang."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Brother Tang frowned.

Whenever he went out recently, Chen Yuhua and Tang Juanzi would take turns blocking him, and it was almost becoming a common sight in the village.

But he had always pretended not to see it and never paid any attention to it... What had he been doing before? Did she like him or his two-story house? As a result, the more he ignored them, the more excited they became, and they didn't stop even when they were on the mountain.

He just hummed, and Tang Juanzi came over slowly and said delicately, "Brother Tang, what are you doing...ah! It's really scary!"

Brother Tang: “……?”

He's actually kind of funny.

Although Chen Yuhua also lived in the village, she was raised as a spoiled girl since she was a child and had never been involved in farm work. She looked okay with this pretentious attitude... But Tang Juanzi? She grew up with this group of kids in the village, eating live fish and shrimps and roasting grasshoppers countless times. Now she showed off this attitude, which was really... rustic and pretentious, imitating others.

When Tang Juanzi saw him laughing, she started laughing too, grabbing her hair and saying, "Brother Tang, can we go over there and talk?"

Brother Tang said directly: "No, I want to see my sister."

Tang Juanzi was stunned for a moment, then frowned and looked at Xinbao.

Then she said in a tone that sounded polite but was in fact impolite, "Xinbao, go play over there. I'll talk to your brother."

Brother Tang: “……?”

His face darkened at that moment: "Are you sick?"

Tang Juanzi was stunned: "I am..."

Brother Tang started to curse, "If you are sick, take medicine quickly, and stop yelling at my sister. What the hell, get out of here."

He picked up his sister and left. Xinbao was holding a cicada monkey in his hand and asked blankly, "Huh?"

She was so focused on catching cicada monkeys that she didn't pay any attention to what the other two were talking about. When Brother Tang saw her silly look, he smiled and said, "It's okay. Ask Brother Three to accompany Xinbao to catch some tomorrow."

Tang Juanzi was so stunned by his scolding that she only came to her senses now and chased after him: "Brother Tang! Brother Tang!"
