Li thought it would be best to tell the truth to her eldest son and not give him any hope at all. Once he went to school, she would never be able to get him out.
"Among your sons, the eldest is most like you in character. He is ambitious and hardworking. When he was little, we read to him. What do you think we should do with him now?"
"It's all my fault that I was blinded by greed. I always thought that as long as the eldest brother became successful, everything would be fine for us. I thought that since he had read so many books and was still a scholar, I would see him become successful the soonest." Who would have thought that the bastard only became a scholar. He got a good job, but those brothers who had supported him for more than a dozen years didn't get anything.
"It's no use regretting now. God knows Zhao Dawen is such a useless jerk that he can never pass the exam. Our son has been a quiet boy since he was young. If it happens again, I will sell everything I have to support Dazhu first."
Sanzhuzi is far less calm and studious than his elder brother.
"Dazhuzi is indeed the one with the most miserable life among the three brothers, ah!"
"Dad! Where are the people?"
Zhao Dashu was very unhappy. He didn't even take a nap, but they all looked like they were taking a rest. Why did they ask him to come over as soon as he got home?
Make him happy?
He was unhappy that everyone should not sleep. Zhao Dashu admitted that he was shouting on purpose.
"Dad, Mom! Brother!"
"The third one is coming!"
Zhao Dayong and Li immediately recovered and quickly got up from the kang, "Third brother, why are you here at this time?"
Li spontaneously went to the kitchen to boil water.
Zhao Dashu was very unhappy with what he said. Is he a cheap person? There's a comfortable big bed, but you don't want to lie down on it and come here to start a fight.
"Didn't you come looking for me and tell me to go home and come here right away?" Brother 0 was really funny, making it seem like he was sticking to them.
"Yes, Dad and I went to look for you this morning, and you went to Yue's house."
That's it. What does it mean to be ungrateful after getting an advantage? That's what my brother did just now.
"Where's Dad? He's still awake? What do you want from me?"
"Dad will tell you later."
Dazhuzi got up and walked out of the house immediately after hearing the noise. "Uncle San is here. Grandpa and grandma are still sleeping. They should come out soon. Wait for me."
"Dazhuzi, how are you doing recently?" Zhao Dashu raised his eyebrows. This nephew has an introverted personality. In the past, he was usually avoided by others. But today, the sun rose from the west.
"It's been fine lately, but I've been working in the fields every day. Are you tired, Uncle San? I'll get you a stool."
"No need, no need. I'm not tired. Don't bother yourself. Brother, I'm not saying that Dazhuzi is still growing. You can't be too tired."
Zhao Dayong pursed his lips, his eldest son was a scheming person.
"I know, just ask him to help."
Zhao Dashu stopped talking. How other people raise their children is really none of his business.
Dazhuzi rubbed the hem of his clothes, trying to find something to talk about, but he really didn't know what to say. Uncle San still cared about him and asked him to do less work.
“Here I come!”
Old man Zhao was still sleepy and a little grumpy. He was a little unhappy to see Zhao Dashu. You really picked a good time to ask him to come over. I wonder if he is asleep at this moment?
Unfilial son!
The old man, the old woman, and Zhao Dayong all entered the main room. After Li brought in some hot water, she hurriedly went to call Zhuzi, asking him why he was still sleeping. Didn’t Dazhuzi call him brother when he got up?
Dazhuzi also entered the main room. Zhao Dayong's brows were twisted into knots. It had nothing to do with him, so why did he come in?
This kid is not right today.
Since his father and third brother were both young, he didn't scold him to leave. After all, he is still the one who makes the decision in their family. No matter how unwilling he is or how many little thoughts he has, it is not his turn to make the decision.
"Did you go to the Song family today?"
"Well, my family hasn't been back to her parents' home for a long time, so I'll take her back to see my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I brought some food from the city, and I'll send it over to them so they can have a taste."
Old man Zhao was unhappy, so he gave them a taste of the new food, and probably sent quite a lot of it over. What about their home? There was only a little bit, not enough to share among the several families, so the third brother treated them as beggars.
"I heard that your Yue family is building a new house?"
"Yes, the old house was too dilapidated, so my father-in-law tore it down and rebuilt it."
"Isn't the Song family extremely poor? Where did they get the money to build a house?"
Zhao Dashu was annoyed by the way his father spoke in a gloomy way. If you have anything to say, just tell him.
"We didn't have money before, but we earned it by going out to work, didn't we? Don't ask how we earned it. Everyone knows it. I earned it with them." Zhao Dashu was such a dignified person.
He was open about his support for the Yue family.
snort!
I'm so jealous of you petty people.
"Dashu, Dayong is your real brother!"
"I know, you keep talking about it every day, and I'm not stupid. Dad, don't talk about useless things. It will only make everyone unhappy."
Old man Zhao is so angry that he will die of anger sooner or later.
"You asked me to ask about the Song family building a house? It has indeed been built. It's a big blue brick and tile house, very magnificent. Mom and dad should go and see it someday. Dad and mother-in-law will definitely give you a warm welcome." Unlike you, when you see someone coming to your house, you don't even smile and send them away with a bowl of brown rice soup.
Old Mrs. Sun wanted to curse several times, but Zhao Dayong stopped her with his eyes.
㟧Zhuzi washed his face, dressed neatly and went into the main room.
"Hello, grandpa and grandma, hello, uncle!" His mother had just told him that he must be kissed by his uncle and be sweet to him.
He is not stupid. When faced with the opportunity to live a good life, how could he not perform well?
"A pillar." Zhao Dashu was surprised. The adults were talking, so why were the two children standing there? Isn’t dad the one who sticks to rules the most?
Old man Zhao looked at his grandson with satisfaction. Giving it to the third son was indeed a good deal for him. "Old Third, what do you think of the pillar?"
"Pretty good. He's grown a lot taller recently, and his face has become a little more open. He's just a little thinner." Zhao Dashu told the truth.
Dazhuzi clenched his fists, hatred bursting from his eyes.
"Yes, he has grown up and become sensible. I think he is a good kid."
so what?
Zhao Dashu said nothing.
Whether it's good or not has nothing to do with him.
"Dashu, you have money now, and you have connections with the nobles in the county. You are no longer the gangster Zhao Dashu in the village." The old man said sourly.
so what?
"Dad, look, you have everything you need, except for one thing, which is the most important thing."
Zhao Dashu put on a frown. He knew what his father was going to say. Dazhuzi and Xiaozhuzi left this here just to humiliate him for not having a son, right?
He is proud that he has no son! What can anyone do to him?
"Dad, just get to the point." He got a headache after listening to all the beating around the bush.
Old man Zhao, who was preparing a long speech, said: …
