It's really weird. Usually, the old woman takes care of all the big and small matters at home. Tu Yufan has always been taciturn, but this time he dared to offend her. According to the old woman's previous temper, she would have made a big fuss. But this time, she was actually frightened by his eyes.
The eldest son's wife also looked at this guy strangely. He was usually very taciturn and she could do nothing about it, but this time he actually turned the tables.
The old woman was silent for a moment, and finally said, "It's time to eat."
When it was time to eat, no one dared to pick up their chopsticks.
The old woman stretched out her chopsticks towards the egg custard, causing many people to swallow their saliva.
Tu Yufan: .....
The old woman scooped up half of the egg with a chopstick and put it into the eldest brother's bowl. Then she gave half to the third brother, then to herself, and then it was Tu Yufan's turn.
The old man didn't get a single drop.
"Since the old man has eaten the eggs, you won't get any of these. The old man has worked on the farm all morning, so he needs to eat something to replenish himself."
"Why."
The old man smiled awkwardly, showing no sign of being angry.
The little girl behind her secretly rolled her eyes at the old woman.
Tu Yufan had been used to a life of luxury in his previous life and couldn't get used to these harsh conditions, so he simply put down his bowl and chopsticks and left.
"I'm stuffed."
"Boss, you don't want to eat?"
Seeing that the eggs in Tu Yufan's bowl were motionless, the old woman took them out and poured them over to the third child.
Tu Yufan returned to the house. The furnishings inside were no different from those outside. Everything was covered with dirt. The bed was made of a pile of grass with a mat spread on it. There was no quilt, only a piece of coarse linen that looked like it could be worn as clothes.
Tu Yufan looked for a while, but there was really no place to step, so he simply went out through the back door.
"Plot."
This is an ancient dynasty. The man's name is Zhu Yufan, and he lives in Luosan Village. The village is poor and remote. The drought has just passed. Although there is disaster relief from the court, the villagers here still can't get enough to eat.
Fortunately, in order to appease the Qi clan, the imperial court exempted taxes, which alleviated a lot of the burden.
The old woman before was the wife of Qian Yu, named Zhao Cuihua, and she is now in her forties.
Tu Yufan looked no different from a man in his sixties. It turned out that the conditions were too difficult.
The couple has three sons and one daughter, and now the eldest and second sons are both married.
As expected, the eldest and the third sons are the most favored by the old woman, while the honest old man is often bullied.
Even the girl born to the old man was not welcomed.
It's a pity that the girl is a daughter, who will lead her old family to prosperity in the future, and Zhao Cuihua is a very bad grandmother. Seeing her old family prospering, she clings to them eagerly, causing all kinds of trouble for them, and then is repeatedly slapped in the face by her daughter, ending up miserably.
The fate of the children is not much better. After Tu Yufan travels through time, according to the plot, it won't be long before he makes a fuss about the old man's house. When he says "old man's house", he actually means sending the old man out alone, because the eldest son is responsible for taking care of the old man, and the third and fourth sons are not married yet, so naturally they have to stay with the old man.
Later, the third son got married, the fourth son got married, and the eldest son inherited all the land in the family and also took on the responsibility of supporting his parents.
But in the countryside, there is no such thing as enjoying life when you are old. People have to work until they die. Zhao Cuihua felt sorry for her eldest son who was too busy to handle a few acres of land. She helped with farm work during the day and took care of the household at night, which made her age faster.
