Lin Ying nodded in agreement with a sullen face, "How can you be so foolish! No one told us about such a big incident. If you had informed us, we would have rushed over to support your aunt and uncle!"
Xu Kang shook his head. "Mom and Dad, I'm glad I didn't tell you. You don't know how crazy Aunt and Ping An were. When they made such a fuss, Grandpa chased Aunt all over the mountain with a super thick stick. If Uncle hadn't come back to save Aunt, I really don't know what would have happened to Aunt!
If you go, Grandpa will beat you up too, and he will not show any mercy."
Lin Ying shuddered at Xu Kang's words, and her feverish mind instantly calmed down a lot, but she grumbled unconvincedly, "You can't hide it from us!"
Xu Kang spread his hands and said, "I didn't hide it from you. I told you everything!"
Lin Ying was stunned for a moment and rolled her eyes. "Go, go, stop beating around the bush with me. Take a rest and go back to the village with your dad later to meet the grandpas, grandmas, uncles, aunts and aunts in the village and pay homage to our ancestors."
Ever since they fell out with the old house, they have been doing their ancestor worship on their own and no longer interfere with the old house.
After moving to the town, the houses in the village were used exclusively for worship. They would not go back home on normal days and would only return to the village to worship their ancestors.
Xu Kang nodded, he understood the rules.
Seeing that her youngest son was obedient, Lin Ying was happy again and quickly prepared a sumptuous dinner for him.
After the family of three finished eating, Lin Ying continued to open the shop.
Xu Dahai took Xu Kang back on the bicycle.
There were many things for ancestor worship in the bicycle basket.
It was only three o'clock in the afternoon when the father and son entered the village.
Most of the villagers were working in the fields and few people knew about it. When the two men had almost finished their worship, some people suddenly came to the house.
Xu Dahai walked into the yard and took a look, then immediately started greeting them.
The captain said cheerfully, "I didn't believe them when they said you were back in the village, but it turned out to be true. Today is not the anniversary of your grandparents' death, so why are you worshipping them?"
Xu Dahai looked at his youngest son and said proudly, "My son Akang is going to the capital to attend university. Bring him back to pay respects."
The captain's eyes widened immediately. "Your Akang also got into college? Wow, this is incredible! Smoke is coming out of our ancestors' graves!"
When Xu Jian was admitted to university, the village was in an uproar for a while. The main reason was that Xu Jie performed poorly in the exam. His score was only last in the class and he could not enter a good college. Wang Fengying could not accept that her son was not as good as Xu Jian, so she made Xu Jie repeat a year and take the exam again.
Xu Jie was not happy about it, and his family quarreled over this matter for a long time, and everyone in the village knew about it.
In the end, Xu Jie couldn't convince Wang Fengying and had to repeat a year, but his test scores were still only enough to get him into a junior college.
In recent years, Wang Fengying and her husband have been laid off one after another, and they can't afford it anymore, so they can only let Xu Jie go to college.
Everyone said that Xu Jie was not destined to go to college, and that Wang Fengying was just making a fuss. They also said that it was already amazing for a family to have one college student, and that all good things couldn't happen to the same family.
As a result, Wang Fengying insisted that Xu Dahai's family had robbed their family of good fortune, and spread gossip about Xu Dahai's family everywhere in the village. She also asked Wang Ximei to find a Feng Shui master to relocate the ancestors' graves and change the Feng Shui.
No one knows whether the feng shui of the main room has improved, but it is obvious that the feng shui of the second room has always been good.
Now, there is another college student, who is studying in the capital! He is even more powerful than Xu Jian.
Xu Dahai pretended to be modest and waved his hands, "No, no, it's all the hard work of the child's grandfather, aunt and uncle. After all, the child's aunt also went to college. The children raised by educated people are definitely different from those raised by us. I won't say more. Come to my house for dinner some other day when you have time!"
"Okay, okay, okay." Everyone greeted each other warmly and watched Xu Dahai and his son leave the village.
The news spread as fast as it could.
Zhang Guizhi, who was wandering around the village, rushed home as soon as she heard the news, "Mom, mom, it's bad, I heard that my second sister-in-law's Xu Kang was also admitted to university!"
Wang Ximei, who was feeding chickens and ducks in the backyard, returned to the front yard with a stern face and threw down the broken dustpan in her hand heavily, "Who are you listening to? Xu Jian and Ajie took the exam together before, but our ancestors didn't recognize the right person and let Xu Jian take advantage of the opportunity to get into university. That spot was originally for Ajie!
We have moved the graves and explained the situation to our ancestors. How could Xu Kang still be admitted to university? "
Zhang Guizhi was furious after hearing this. "Mom, what are you thinking? It's not like you can get into college just by praying for the blessing of your ancestors! If the blessing of your ancestors was so useful, everyone would just go and burn incense to their ancestors instead of studying!"
I heard it from the captain. Others may be talking nonsense, but the captain is not! Moreover, the captain also said that Xu Kang was admitted to a university in the capital. That is the capital! Ordinary people like us may not be able to go there once in our lifetime, but he is going to the capital at such a young age! "
Zhang Guizhi was extremely envious, and the more she spoke, the more she regretted. If she had not broken up with the second wife, she would also be able to benefit from it now.
Apart from anything else, her three daughters would feel proud when they go out and talk about their two cousins who were admitted to university, and other people would look up to them instead of talking behind their backs about them not having brothers and that their family would be left with no descendants in the future.
Wang Ximei was unhappy. If the ancestors' blessing was useless, what was the point of her moving the grave!
Also, no matter what, Xu Kang is still her grandson. The second brother said he would sever ties with her and he really did. He doesn't come to see her himself, and he doesn't even let the child come over. What does that mean?
The more Wang Ximei thought about it, the more upset she felt.
When the two sons are home at night, they start to make a fuss.
"Why did I work so hard to raise you three brothers?"
Xu Dachuan and Xu Dashan looked at each other, confused.
"Mom, just say what you want to say. Don't beat around the bush. I'm stupid and can't understand." Xu Dachuan looked impatient.
During this period, some people approached him to make money together by doing those shady things. It turns out that this way of making money is fast. With money in hand, he became more confident in what he said.
Wang Ximei's emotions, which had been brewing for a long time, were interrupted just like that. She was so angry that she glared at Xu Dachuan and scolded him, "You are just stupid. You are a hopeless case. You can't even give birth to a son. What else can I expect from you?"
Xu Dachuan also got angry and threw his chopsticks hard, "Yes! I'm useless, I'm a waste! Are you satisfied with this? If you don't like me, I'll just leave!"
"Hey, what's wrong with me saying a few words to you? You, a family of five, eat my food, use my things, live in my house, and you're getting angry with me! If you have the guts, get out of here!" Wang Ximei was furious. She had made up her mind that her youngest son could not leave this home, so she spoke very rudely.
Unexpectedly, Xu Dachuan directly grabbed Zhang Guizhi.
"Go! Go back to your room and pack your luggage. We're leaving now!" (End of this chapter)
