As they passed the Wang family group, Wang Tianxiao smiled at his mother, signaling her not to worry, and then glanced indifferently at Wang Tianyi and his wife, without looking at Wang Tianren at all.
Arriving at the entrance of his cave dwelling, he took out the copy of "How the Steel Was Tempered" from his pocket and handed it to Wang Tianxin. After thinking for a moment, he took out a few coins and stuffed them into his hand.
Pat him on the shoulder and say, "Read the book carefully. After you finish reading it, tell me what it's about. If you do a good job, I'll give you five yuan."
"Really?!" Wang Tianxin was overjoyed.
"Of course, when has Second Brother ever lied to anyone?"
"Okay, I'll definitely read it carefully." Wang Tianxin hugged the book tightly, as if it would be snatched away if he let go.
Just as Wang Tianxiao was about to enter the cave, the three members of the Yu family finally reacted. They heard a series of hurried footsteps, accompanied by Wang Tiancheng's shout: "Second brother, be careful!"
He turned around abruptly and saw that the eldest son of the Yu family had just jumped up, preparing to kick him down from behind. He was prepared, and with a cold laugh, he slightly turned his body and kicked the eldest son in the outer thigh.
This is the kicking motion he uses to kick wolves. He once kicked an old wolf so hard that it collapsed to the ground and couldn't recover for a long time.
Human endurance can never compare to that of a wolf.
"Ouch!" A cry of pain rang out as Yu Da fell to the ground, his mouth slamming into the threshold. Luckily, the threshold was made of wood; if it had been stone, it would have surely shattered all his front teeth.
Wang Tianxiao took the opportunity to stomp hard on Yu Da's back, coldly watching the two Yu brothers who were about to pounce on him, and said indifferently, "Let me tell you a story. Once when I was patrolling in the mountains, I encountered a black bear."
Everyone's ears perked up, but Wang Tianxiao didn't say anything more. He moved his feet aside and entered his cave dwelling from the side.
What's the meaning?
The people in the courtyard looked at each other in bewilderment. They were supposed to be telling stories, so why had they stopped?
Wang Tianyi was the first to understand, and looking at the three members of the Yu family, he said, "Second Brother means that he is still alive."
The three members of the Yu family were stunned to find that the child was still alive, but they quickly realized what was happening.
If Wang Tianxiao is alive, then the bear must be dead.
I immediately felt sweating all over.
Wang Tianxiao's gaze just now was indeed filled with murderous intent, as if he were looking at a wild beast about to be killed. This person was definitely not the honest man Yu Xiaofeng described.
They couldn't help but look at Yu Xiaofeng, only to find that she was also pale and silent.
When Wang Tianxiao entered, he saw his wife sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) with a worried expression. When she saw him come in, her face was full of concern.
"It's alright, don't be afraid. With me here, none of them will dare to do anything."
As he spoke, Wang Tianxiao put the bag on the kang (a heated brick bed), then went out again and looked at the three Yu brothers who were at a loss. He said, "I suggest you go back while there is still room for maneuver. No one has no family to rely on. If you bring your family to your wife's house every time there is a conflict, what kind of life is that?"
Yu Da said coldly, "You think we're afraid of you?"
“No, that’s not it,” Wang Tianxiao smiled faintly. “My mother said that harmony in the family brings prosperity, and only by being peaceful can we live a good life. As for fighting, you can’t even beat me alone, let alone my several younger brothers…”
When Wang Tianxiao said this, he deliberately glanced at Wang Tiancheng and Wang Tianxin. His two younger brothers immediately walked to his side and stood with him.
When he returned, he saw Wang Tianxin guarding the entrance to his cave dwelling to prevent the Yu family from entering. He felt a slight stirring in his heart, thinking that this younger brother still had some affection for him, so he should guide him appropriately.
It's a rebellious time, and if you can guide him well, it's better than watching him turn into a hooligan.
With three brothers against three brothers, the situation is basically one-sided.
Wang Tianyi then said to Yu Xiaofeng, "Third sister-in-law, second brother is right. Things need to be resolved. We'll be seeing each other all the time. If we make things too out of hand, it will be impossible to clean up the mess, and it won't benefit anyone."
He then said to the three members of the Yu family, "You three should stop causing trouble. If you hurt any of my family members today, my eldest brother will definitely not let it go."
When the eldest son of the Wang family was mentioned, the three of them were clearly somewhat wary, and their imposing manner weakened.
"Since you all say so, then my Yu family is not unreasonable. We can go back, but you must promise that from now on you will not let my sister suffer any grievances."
"Of course, since Third Sister-in-law married into our Wang family, our Wang family will definitely not treat her badly, right, Third Brother?"
Wang Tianren had been squatting on the threshold without saying a word, but when he heard that things were about to end, he stood up and said with a forced smile, "Big brother, my fourth brother is right. I will definitely treat Xiaofeng well."
"I hope you keep your word." Yu Da glanced at Wang Tianxiao, then waved to his two brothers, "Let's go."
They're also people who operate in the underworld; they're very good at changing their tune depending on the situation. Since someone has offered them a way out, it would be foolish not to take the opportunity to do so.
The three of them pushed their bicycles up the alleyway.
The courtyard fell silent again, and the atmosphere became particularly oppressive.
Yu Xiaofeng was about to slip back to her cave dwelling when Wang Tianxiao said calmly, "Yu Xiaofeng, wait a moment."
Looking at the others, his gaze fell on his mother's face. "Since everyone is here today, I have an announcement to make: I will be moving out of this pit-dwelling courtyard after the New Year."
"What? Second brother, you want to split up the family?" Wang Tiancheng's expression changed, and before he could say anything, Wang Tianxin asked first.
Wang Tianxiao nodded.
He walked to his mother's side and said softly, "Mother, my father is gone, and my elder brother is busy with work, so there's no need to ask him to come back to discuss the division of the family property. You can decide how to divide it. It doesn't matter whether you give him anything or not, just give me an acre of land to use as a farm."
Zhang Meifeng stared blankly at her son, and asked with a complicated expression, "Why the rush?"
“Harmony in the family brings prosperity in everything.” Wang Tianxiao smiled and whispered in his mother’s ear, “If we keep making a fuss like this, none of us will be able to live a good life.”
"Where will you live after leaving home?"
"I have my own plans." Wang Tianxiao smiled, put his arm around his mother's shoulder, and turned to the various people with different expressions, saying, "This matter is settled. I will move out after the New Year. I hope there won't be any more trouble during this time, and we can have a good New Year."
I'm not going to hold a grudge about what happened in the past for Mother's sake, but my patience has its limits. We're all brothers, so don't keep doing heartless things behind our backs. Think about yourselves."
After saying that, he turned and went back to his cave dwelling.
The other people in the courtyard gradually dispersed.
The adults were preoccupied, but the children didn't seem to care at all. Wang Fang took Hongwei from the third brother's family and Xiaotian from the fourth brother's family out to play.
Hongwei and Xiaotian are the same age, just over two years old, while Wang Fang is one year older than them.
There are four children in the yard now. The oldest is Hua'er from the third child's family, and then there are these three little ones.
Back in the cave dwelling, Wang Tianxiao noticed his wife looking at him with a strange expression. He smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you recognize your husband?"
