Chapter 8000
Changping Village.
In the dining hall in the backyard of the old house, a room full of young and old men gathered together, but the room was so quiet that you could even hear the slightest sound of an embroidery needle falling to the ground.
There were so many people, but there was no commotion at all. They even held their breaths.
Why?
Because Old Yangtou was losing his temper, just now, the old man not only broke the tea bowl in front of him, but also broke his dry tobacco pole into two pieces on the table.
That dry tobacco pole had been with Lao Yangtou for several years, and it had broken during the period, but it had all been repaired.
The old man liked the dry tobacco pole very much. He carried it with him wherever he went. Sometimes he inserted it into his back, sometimes he held it in his hand, and sometimes he held it in his mouth. There was a small hole punched in the end of the dry tobacco pole and hung there.
A thread.
The silk thread had already lost its original color due to the sweat in the old man's palms, but it was still hanging. Some people secretly said that the reason why the old man valued this dry tobacco pole so much was not because of how valuable it was.
But this dry tobacco pole was given by Yang Yongxian a few years ago, and the silk on it was tied by Yunya himself.
This is the old man's memory.
But now, the old man knocked this memory into two pieces with his own hands. His eyes bulged and his face turned black and red, like a bamboo pole being roasted on a charcoal fire.
"This little black guy is going to shake things up!"
"Fourth, boy Zhi, if you two go to the tea garden again, you will kidnap Xiao Hei even if you have to tie him up!"
"I don't believe in that evil yet. My mother fell ill in bed, and my son dared not come back to the bedside to take care of her illness. He is a treasonous person, a wolf-hearted, and a white-eyed wolf!"
Yes, the old man was furious this time, mainly because he sent Yang Yongzhi to the tea garden to find Xiao Hei and tell him about Yang Huamei's illness.
As a result, Xiao Hei refused to go down the mountain because he was busy in the tea garden. Even his master, Xu Yuanming, who was responsible for taking care of the tea garden, tried to persuade him, but it was of no avail.
This matter touched old Yang's head.
"The state has national laws, and families have family rules. If a child loses the word filial piety, he is no different from an animal!" Old Yangtou said with an angry look on his face.
"In the past, Dabai contradicted and beat Meier, and in the later, Xiaohei followed suit. If this evil trend is not stopped, what will happen?"
"Mei'er is the daughter of our old Yang family. We cannot tolerate the neglect of the Wang family. Fourth son, when we arrive at the tea garden tomorrow, if that kid Xiaohei dares not to come back, you will beat me to death!"
Yang Huaming secretly felt happy in his heart, and he even said it unabashedly: "People in the Ming Dynasty don't speak secretly. I have wanted to beat the twin nephews of the Mei'er family for a long time!"
"The two twins have the same virtues. They pick up the bowl to eat and put down the bowl to scold their mother. However, the older twin has now learned to pretend, and the younger twin still shows his stupidity on his face. What a pair of things, only Meier is rare!"
Yang Huazhong glanced at Yang Huaming, his eyes a little unhappy.
"Third brother, don't look at me like that. I'm telling the truth." Yang Huaming bravely met Yang Huazhong's condemning gaze and continued, "I believe that I am not the only one in the old Yang family who has this idea.
A lot of people want to beat him up."
As soon as Yang Huaming finished speaking, Mrs. Liu echoed: "My father wants to beat her, but it's a pity that I can't beat him as a woman!"
She thought this sentence was very humorous and playful, covering her mouth and laughing.
It's a pity that this sentence didn't seem to make others laugh.
Yang Huazhong looked at the couple and said in a helpless tone, "Everyone has two sides, and you can't completely deny Da Bai and Xiao Hei just because of the bad side. Speaking of being worthless, after all, they were born from Mei'er in ten months.
Yes, half of the blood of our old Yang family flows through him!"
"Dabai seems to be a little more sensible now. As for Xiao Hei, he is still a child at heart. As elders, we should try our best to teach him first. Beating him up is the last resort!"
Yang Huazhong's words caused some people in the room to think.
Even the burning anger all over Old Yangtou seemed to be extinguished a little, and his two gray brows were tightly knitted together.
Yang Huaming couldn't completely agree with Yang Huazhong's statement. He then argued: "Third brother, how many opportunities have we given those two boys over the years? We have watched them grow up, so we have already seen clearly what kind of virtue they are!"
Mrs. Liu also said: "That's right. Third brother, you are too lenient to them. Xiao Hei is sixteen and can marry a wife and have children to support his family. Look at Mei'er, how have you spoiled him?"
"When I heard that Xiao Hei couldn't come back, Mei'er also spoke for him, saying that he has grown up now and knows how to learn how to do things from his master. Damn, there is a day that he can't learn for twelve months in a year? Just delay going home.
Visiting a doctor these three or two days? You’re just lazy!”
Liu's words are also reasonable. Regarding the matter of Xiao Hei's refusal to go down the mountain, several parties have their own opinions and have their own reasons. For a while, they were in a stalemate.
Until Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang came in.
Old Yangtou said: "Qing'er, Tangyaozi, we can't argue, please help and see what happens!"
The old man gave Yang Huaming a look, and Yang Huaming immediately told them the story of the argument vividly.
After listening, the couple exchanged looks.
Luo Fengtang's eyes were indifferent and he rarely expressed his opinions on other people's household matters. Unless Qing'er was involved, then he would take the lead for her.
Compared to Luo Fengtang's indifference, a trace of disdain flashed across Yang Ruoqing's eyes, but a smile appeared on her lips.
"Well, it's rare that he has a positive and eager to learn, and he doesn't want to slack off even at this time."
It's late autumn now, and it's the off-season for tea gardens. Are you busy?
Have a ball!
"It just so happens that his master Xu Yuanming's daughter is about to get married. Xu Yuanming asked me to take a few days off, and I will approve it right now."
Yang Huaming high-fived: "Hey, it's over now. His master is going to take leave and go down the mountain to prepare for his daughter's marriage. Now Xiao Hei has no excuse not to go home to visit his mother, right? Qing'er, this is a good move, let's go even now
Even your aunt can’t blame us for kidnapping Xiao Hei in the mountains!”
Yang Ruoqing's face remained unchanged and she shook her head slightly, "Fourth uncle is thinking too much. I don't have any ideas. I originally planned to give Xu Yuanming and his wife a few days off. Their daughter is also the apple of their eye, and getting married is a big deal."
Ms. Liu said: "No matter what happens, Xu Yuanming and his wife will have to go down the mountain, and there will be no one to cook in the tea garden. Xiao Hei will definitely come back in trouble."
On the way back to Luo's house at night, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang discussed Xu Yuanming's marriage to his daughter.
"...The son-in-law is from the county town, and his family runs a small business. Among the older sisters, one of his brothers-in-law is a policeman. In the county town, he is considered a wealthy and well-off family." Yang Ruoqing said.
"That girl Qiao Hong is good-looking and smart. Xu Yuanming carefully selected her for this marriage. She can be considered a well-matched match."
Luo Fengtang nodded slightly, responding to her words.
