After being surprised, the fifteen-year-old Tian Xiang also stepped forward and called affectionately: "Second sister, third sister, let's go home quickly."
As for the 23-year-old eldest brother Tian Ji, he did not call anyone and stood aside with an unclear expression.
Tian Yuzhu and Tian Ying looked at each other and said, "Sister, help our mother go home."
"Why!"
The two sisters helped Yang Xiu up and walked forward.
Shi Zhentang took out the prepared gifts from the trunk of the car. When the villagers saw so many preys, they smacked their lips again.
"The uncle of the Tian family is quite generous."
"That's right. I heard that soldiers earn a lot of money."
It was only at this time that Tian Ji hurried over and took the thing from Shi Zhentang. Although there was no conversation, he looked submissive to Shi Zhentang.
Tian Yuzhu found it strange that they seemed to have met Shi Zhentang before.
When the group returned to the Tian family, Tian Yuzhu was still shocked by the bumpy courtyard and the dilapidated thatched house in front of her.
I've seen poor people, but I've never seen such poverty.
Logically speaking, the Tian family has no shortage of labor, but this situation is probably just self-sufficiency.
One day's work points are only enough for one day's meals, and there is no money left to repair the house.
As for entering the house, it was even more embarrassing. There was not even a decent stool. The kang was swept clean, but the cushion on it was also tattered.
There was no other way, Yang Xiu could only pull Tian Yuzhu to sit on the kang. Tian Ying didn't dare to get on the kang and kept looking at Tian Cai.
Tian Cai then smiled awkwardly: "Aying, why are you being so polite? Sit down and have a good chat with your mother and your sister."
As for Shi Zhentang, he sat on the only high stool in the house.
He sat down, but Tian Cai and Tian Ji, father and son, didn't dare to sit down. Only Tian Xiang half-sat on the kang and talked to Tian Yuzhu and the others: "Second sister, third sister, mom is looking forward to seeing you two every day."
In the original owner's memory, this younger brother was quite good. He never deliberately bullied his silly third sister, and sometimes even secretly hid food for her.
When the children in the village bullied Silly Third Sister, he often stood up to help her.
So at the moment, Tian Yuzhu still has a good impression of her younger brother.
She smiled gently: "Axiang, are you happy that we are back?"
Tian Xiang said cheerfully, "Third sister, you've really changed. You can speak more fluently now. I'm of course happy that you're back. It's been a long time since we last met, and I missed you too."
Yang Xiu held Tian Yuzhu's hand with heartache, looking left and right, still couldn't believe that this was his silly daughter.
"Years ago, your uncle went to a meeting in Xinyi Town and came back to say that Yuzhu had become smarter and that the Shi family's house was supporting people, so you weren't as stupid as before. Mom didn't believe it, but now that I see with my own eyes that you're doing well, I can finally die with peace of mind."
"Mom, what are you talking about? Good days are still ahead. Don't talk about life or death. You have to live well." Tian Yuzhu coaxed her, and she looked at Shi Zhentang again.
Although the other party didn't say anything, his cold and terrifying aura lowered the tension in the room a bit.
Looking at Tian Cai and Tian Ji's necks, she suddenly remembered that Shi Zhentang said he was going out to do something yesterday, and later he didn't tell her where he was going.
Could it be that he came to Tianjia Village yesterday and greeted the Tian family?
Tian Yuzhu put this thought aside for the time being. She said with a hint of meaning, "I have Dad and Big Brother to thank for my good life today. If you hadn't thrown me to Old Shi's house, there would be no marriage between me and Zhentang, and I wouldn't have the good life today. Dad, Big Brother, thank you."
"Haha, that's true...we...we are doing this for your own good."
Tian Cai's awkward smile made the corners of his mouth twisted.
Tian Ji's face turned red and he turned his head away without saying a word.
Tian Yuzhu glanced at them coldly and continued, "We came back today mainly to announce something to everyone. Zhou Er is a worthless dog who takes his punching bag out on my sister every other day. You should have heard about this a long time ago.
Now I've asked my sister to divorce Zhou Ergou, so she has to return to Tianjia Village to settle down. You guys decide whether to accept her or not!"
What Tian Yuzhu didn't expect was that no one reacted much after she said these words. She now completely believed her guess.
Shi Zhentang must have come here early.
I didn't expect this man to be so thoughtful. He definitely didn't want them to get into an argument with her again and hurt their health, so he did this.
Tian Yuzhu gave Shi Zhentang a grateful look.
He knew that he couldn't hide anything from his wife, so he said, "I discussed this matter with them yesterday. We have this kang in the main room and two thatched houses in the yard. Mom and sister will live in the kang in the main room, and the others can live in the thatched houses in the yard. They also agreed."
"Ah?" Tian Ying was completely shocked.
After sitting on the kang, she kept her head down and dared not say a word. When she heard Tian Yuzhu talking about her divorce, she was so nervous that her fingertips were trembling.
In the end, no one scolded her, which was quite surprising.
Then she heard Shi Zhentang's arrangements, and she was shocked.
She knew best what kind of person her father Tian Cai was. How could he be willing to give the kang in the main room to her?
Even Tian Yuzhu felt that there must be something fishy going on, so she asked, "What are the conditions?"
Tian Cai quickly shook his head: "Look at you, girl, what conditions do you have? We are a family, and it is natural for family members to take care of each other. Besides, if Ah Ying can't live in the Zhou family anymore, then she must leave. How can we live without leaving, right?"
"Dad, I remember you never let me get a divorce, and you said even if we get a divorce you were not allowed to go back to my parents' home." Tian Ying told the truth in a moment of desperation.
Tian Cai waved his hands awkwardly: "That was said in the past, don't take it to heart."
"So what's changed now? Have you made any demands to Zhentang and Yuzhu?" Tian Ying bit her lip and stood up, mustering up the courage to say, "Yuzhu, if they want you to pay them to take me in, then I'm leaving."
"Sister, don't be anxious." Tian Yuzhu held Tian Ying.
She saw that Yang Xiu was the one who dared not speak the most in the family, and Tian Cai kept saying that he had not put forward any conditions. Could it be true?
Looking at Shi Zhentang, he spoke coldly, "They have mentioned some conditions, but I didn't agree to any of them. The only thing I agreed to is that I will pay three yuan for food every month while you live at home."
"real?"
Three yuan per person's food expenses are quite high in a small mountain village, but if it can buy Tian Ying a peaceful life, it is not a bad idea.
Moreover, what Tian Ying earns every month from making clothes is more than enough to cover the cost.
Tian Yuzhu couldn't believe her ears, but she also knew that Shi Zhentang would never lie to her.
Looking at Tian Cai and the others nodding hurriedly, "Really, it's true, there's nothing else."
She thought that Shi Zhentang had probably used some means to conquer Tian Cai and his son yesterday.
