Chapter 548: A Group of Debt Collectors

Before Lao Yangtou expressed his position, Yang Huaming quickly said: "Dad, the house that Lao Wu gave up will give us four rooms, exactly three, to accommodate the five of us."

"Sure!" Old Yang nodded.

We also discussed other details.

It's basically settled.

When everyone was satisfied and ready to leave, a crisp voice interrupted.

It's Yang Ruoqing.

Yang Ruoqing asked Old Yangtou: "Sir, you have given away all the fields, so what will you and Nai eat and drink in the future?"

Old Yang glanced at Yang Ruoqing and was surprised.

The sons only care about how much they have earned, and no one has asked them how they will support themselves in old age.

This fat girl brought it up again.

The old man felt a hint of emotion in his heart.

After Yang Ruoqing asked this question, Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou immediately realized this.

Yang Huazhong said: "Even if we, the five brothers, separate, our parents are still ours and we cannot ignore them!"

Yang Huazhou also nodded.

The other three were silent.

Old Yang took over the conversation and said, "Your mother and I will stay in this east room from now on."

"There are three rooms in the east room, one is reserved for Mei'er, and the other is used as a kitchen for your mother and I."

Old Yangtou pointed to the kitchen in Old Yang's family again and said: "In the past, the kitchen was reserved for the eldest family. Since the eldest family had many sons, the dining hall was also given to them."

"Most of the time the second house lives in the town, and he comes back during the holidays if he wants to light a fire."

"You can borrow the kitchen of any other brother's house."

"The four bedrooms occupy three rooms on the west side, and the kitchen is built by myself."

"Your mother and I will keep half a year's worth of grain and sundries in the warehouse. The rest will be shared with you."

"After the autumn harvest, you will give us two elders eighty kilograms of rice per room."

"Be respectful during festivals and festivals!"

"Your mother and I are sick, and you will share the money for the medicine equally!" Old Yang said.

No one else said anything.

Yang Huaming spoke up.

"Dad, my second brother and my third brother are rich. Eighty pounds of rice a year is nothing to them!"

"Our fourth house tightened our belts and gave away 80 catties, but they have to give away at least 200 catties to be justified!"

Upon hearing what Yang Huaming said, Yang Hualin became anxious.

"The third child opened a restaurant, which is really rich. At best, I just run errands for Uncle Lan'er, and I have no money!"

Yang Huaming said: "Second brother, please save it. Second sister-in-law puts on makeup and powder, and Lan Yatou doesn't touch Yang Chun Shui with her ten fingers. You have no money? Who believes it!"

The two brothers were about to argue again.

Old Yangtou stopped them.

His eyes immediately turned to Yang Huazhong.

The meaning is obvious.

Yang Huazhong frowned and stood up.

"Dad, our three-bedroom life is better than before. However, opening a restaurant is risky!"

Yang Huazhong said.

"It seems to be prosperous right now, but maybe it won't be able to open the pot again later."

"Fourth brother and the others should be careful now. Maybe they will get lucky and become prosperous later on?"

"How much grain should we give to our parents? We five brothers should follow the same standards!" Yang Huazhong said.

Yang Huazhou nodded: "I agree with what Third Brother said!"

"Everyone has to give the same kind of millet. If a family has a good life, they can give more to their parents during the holidays!" Yang Huazhou suggested.

Old Yangtou sighed and nodded.

"so be it!"

"Dad, when are we going to open the warehouse to stock the grain?" Yang Hualin asked.

Old Yang glanced at him: "It's all in the dark right now. I can't see what's going on and you'll have to make trouble again!"

"Let's do it tomorrow. Tomorrow will be bright and beautiful. You can divide it as you should!"

The sons finally exited the house.

Just leave Lao Yangtou and Mr. Tan.

Mrs. Tan went over and closed the door tightly, then cursed and sat back on the bed.

But he saw Lao Yang leaning there with his head, his face was ashen, and he was crying.

"People say you raise children to protect yourself in old age, but here you go, you just raised a bunch of debt collectors!"

The old man sighed.

Mrs. Tan felt uncomfortable seeing Old Yangtou like this.

I have been with him since I was fifteen years old. For most of my life, through wind and rain, I have never seen him shed a tear.

Mrs. Tan stood up and poured a bowl of tea for Lao Yangtou, then sat down next to him.

"Everyone, I was born in ten months of pregnancy."

"There is no milk, so everyone is held in my arms and fed rice cereal and noodle soup."

"Wrap their little feet in my arms on winter nights, and use cattail fans to swat mosquitoes on summer nights."

"Every one of them, I am so proud of..."

Mrs. Tan shed tears as she spoke.

"Why do you think that when you grow up and marry each other, you treat me as your enemy?"

"I am their mother!"

Mrs. Tan was sobbing, her gray hair on her temples was all messed up when she chased Yang Huaan and the others.

Now under the lamp, he looks older and more haggard.

Old Yangtou also felt sad in his heart.

"Mother Mei, please stop crying. From now on, we will be our companions!"



Yang Huazhong accompanied Yang Huazhou to the West Room to pack his things.

If you sleep one more night tonight, Yang Huazhou will move these things to town tomorrow.

Yang Huazhong also had mixed feelings.

Unexpectedly, the huge old Yang family broke up just like that.

"Fifth brother, I feel uncomfortable in my heart!" Yang Huazhong said.

Yang Huazhou stopped what he was doing and sighed.

"To be honest, Third Brother, I feel strange in my heart."

he said.

"Especially when I left the east room earlier, I felt so uncomfortable when I saw my parents like that!"

"Third brother, to be honest, I really don't want to separate our families."

"I just want to live in harmony with everyone for the rest of my life. That would be great!"

"But, these days, we can't live apart from each other. Things always go wrong, and Suyun almost had a tire..."

Yang Huazhou's voice was choked with sobs.

Yang Huazhong patted Yang Huazhou on the shoulder: "The matter is over, fifth brother, don't worry about it anymore."

"I can't blame you for our family to come to this point."

"It doesn't matter if the family is separated. From now on, we will work hard to make money and pay more tribute to our parents. Even if the family is separated, we are still their son and we must support them in their old age!"

"Yeah!" Yang Huazhou nodded vigorously.

The two brothers calmed down and then packed their things.

In the next room, Yang Huaming and Mrs. Liu couldn't sleep either, so they gathered together to make plans.

Yang Huaming twisted the field deed in his hand, unable to do anything.

"It's so annoying. How can we manage these six or seven acres of farmland? We will die from exhaustion!" he said.

Mr. Liu disagreed.

"If you can't do it, just don't do it. Rent it out and we'll collect the rent," she said.

Yang Huaming said: "With that little rent, I can only live on, and I don't have any spare money."

"What should we do?" Liu asked.

Yang Huaming pinched his chin.

"I plan to sell the two acres of second-grade fertile land I was allocated, and we can do whatever we want with the remaining four acres of third-grade land."

"Two acres of second-class land will cost eight taels of silver!" he said.

"Yeah? So many!"
