Drive a RV and go farming in ancient times.
Chapter 30 Support him
Village Chief Xu's house is located in the middle of the village. There are two tall tung trees planted in the yard, which are very conspicuous. The main house is the same as the Xu family's old house, which also has five large blue brick houses, but the Xu family's old house is built by attracting the Gu family. It was only covered with blood. People rely on their true abilities to live with more confidence.
The eldest son of Xu Village has only two sons. The eldest son has been married for a long time, but over the years, he has only one grandson. The younger son is a son of old age. He is only fourteen years old and studies in the town school with Xu Huaiyu. .
Xu Huaiyi thought about it all the way. When he arrived at the place, he saw that the door was open. He called out "Uncle Village Chief" at the door, then raised his legs to cross the threshold and walked around the screen wall. Then he saw several people gathered around under the tung tree. Sitting on a stone table, drinking tea and chatting.
"Huaiyi is here?" Xu Deshou was the first to speak, waving to him enthusiastically, "Come and sit down, we were talking about you just now, Changsong, please bring another stool for your brother Huaiyi." …”
Xu Changsong is the eldest son of Village Chief Xu. After hearing this, he hurriedly stood up to support him, "Hey, second uncle, I'll go right away. Huaiyi, you sit on my chair first..."
"Brother Xu, don't be polite to me. I'll just stand still..." Xu Huaiyi stopped him quickly. He originally planned to put down his things and leave after saying a few words.
Village Chief Xu held the tobacco pole, slowly exhaled smoke from his mouth, and spoke, "Huaiyi, if you are not busy, just sit down and talk for a while. I have something to ask you."
Hearing this, Xu Huaiyi couldn't refuse anymore, "Fourth uncle, second uncle Gao, uncle Liu..." He said hello to several other people one by one before sitting in the lowest seat.
Village Chief Xu looked at him calmly, with a straight back and clear eyes. Although he was still wearing coarse linen patched clothes, he did not look shabby or embarrassed. He looked upright and upright, and even had a faint sense of bravery and fierceness that made people dare not underestimate him. watch for.
Sure enough, it is true that the sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening.
Others were also secretly amazed. Who would have thought that the weak and honest coward in the past would turn out to be like a pearl that wiped away the dust after enlightenment, blinding so many people's eyes.
Xu Maoshan's family should be the ones who feel the deepest feelings. They must be so angry that they hunt geese all day long, only to be blinded by the geese, but they haven't bothered to settle accounts with him yet.
But now, the fourth uncle with the highest seniority in the Xu family is here...
Xu Huaiyi was not worried at all about his fourth uncle's guild raising an army to hold him accountable. On the contrary, he was still looking forward to it. After all, his main purpose in coming to Village Chief Xu was to resolve this matter.
Fourth uncle Xu did not disappoint him. He cleared his throat and took the lead in attacking, "Huaiyi, I heard that you and your second brother had a quarrel? What kind of conflict can't be handled at home and you have to go outside? You're so full of yelling. Everyone in the village knows that if someone makes a joke, which one of you can get away with it? It is simply embarrassing to the ancestors of the old Xu family!"
Xu Huaiyi raised his hand and wiped his face, sincerely admitting his mistake, "Fourth uncle, what I did was indeed inappropriate and brought discredit to the Xu family. You are right to teach me a lesson..."
The fourth uncle stroked his beard and his expression softened slightly.
Xu Huaiyi then changed the topic and said in a sad tone, "But, fourth uncle, my grandnephew is really forced to have no choice. As long as there is still a chance to survive, who wants to quarrel with his biological brothers? I was here at the time. I don’t need to say it again. All the elders here are clear-sighted and should know clearly. To put it bluntly, it’s just like being a cow or a horse. It’s just like being a cow or a horse. , I didn’t end up well at all, I was sold to the Gu family as their son-in-law..."
"I am also a man. No matter how coward I am, I still want face, but what did I say in the end? Didn't I just listen to my family's words and spend the rest of my life to exchange fifty taels of silver and a box of books for the Xu family? Who? Call me a member of the Xu family. They are all my biological brothers. I admit it! But my wife and daughter are not from the Xu family. They don’t owe the Xu family anything. In fact, they treat the Xu family like There is kindness! But when the lives of the two of them were hanging by a thread, who stood up and took care of it? Without even saying a word, they directly advised me to give up marrying another one. Fourth uncle, tell me, I inherited the kindness of my father-in-law, but If I have to watch my wife, children, and daughters die, am I still a human being?"
The last sentence was a shocking question.
The fourth uncle's old face suddenly turned red and white. After a long pause, he said dryly, "At that time, there was nothing we could do about the situation. Who among us farmers can afford the medicine that costs twenty taels of silver a pair?"
Xu Huaiyi said mockingly, "But my fifth brother can afford to pay for one tael of silver a month. My family is far from exhausted just for a dozen taels of silver. My eldest brother works as an accountant in the town. Every month I can make a lot of money, and no matter how hard it is, my third uncle can borrow money from anyone and get the medicine money, but he just doesn’t treat our family of three as human beings, that’s all unintentional.”
The fourth uncle held on and said, "Well, there is no need to go to that extent. If there is any conflict, let's talk about it in the house. Your uncle and I are here. As for slapping the entire Xu family in the face?"
Xu Huaiyi made a desperate expression of suppressing his sorrow, "Fourth uncle, if I were still a member of the Xu family, they would rub me to death and I would admit it. But now I have left home and am the son-in-law of the Gu family. Walking represents the face of the Gu family. Xu Huaili comes to bully me. I have to swallow my anger and continue to be a wimp for the sake of the Xu family's face? Then can my father-in-law's coffin board be covered? "
The fourth uncle was finally speechless.
Xu Deshou shouted loudly, "Well said!"
Xu Huaiyi immediately hit the snake on the stick, stood up and saluted Xu Deshou, "Thank you, Uncle Xu, for your fair words, I, I finally feel a little warm in my heart..."
Xu Deshou laughed and said, "Don't be polite, I'm not doing it for you, I just don't want to see your family. No, it's the virtue of Xu Laoer's family. They treat their son like a human being and bully him to death. He thinks that the whole Xujia Village has no one." Do you understand?"
Village Chief Xu glared at him, "Stop saying a few words. How can the Maoshan family be as miserable as you say? It's just a little biased. As parents, your five fingers are all different lengths..."
Xu Deshou rolled his eyes, "What kind of partiality are you doing? You are partial to selling your son to become your son-in-law? Just for the sake of being a servant? You can live in a big tile-roofed house with the Gu family's money, and use the Gu family's money to go to school, but... Not giving medical treatment to the daughter of the Gu family, bah, being unkind and unjust is frivolous, what is that called? Ungrateful..."
Village Chief Xu scolded, "Shut up! The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes!"
Although they were scolding, there was no anger on their faces. It was obvious that the two brothers were in harmony and seized the opportunity to run against Xu Laoer's family.
Seeing this, Xu Huaiyi felt calm.
Xu Deshou chuckled at this time and cupped his hands towards his fourth uncle, "Fourth Uncle Xu, please don't take it to heart. I am not targeting your family. Although they all have the surname Xu, the nine sons of Longsheng are all different. How can everyone be virtuous? Who among the children you taught would not praise them for being kind, kind, affectionate and righteous?"
The fourth uncle nodded stiffly and said nothing.
At this time, Uncle Gao came out to smooth things over, "Okay, let's not talk about these bad things. People are doing it anyway, and God is watching. Anyone who is not blind will know clearly who has done something immoral. Justice is in the heart. Huaiyi, don’t always think about things in the past. Who didn’t feel a little wronged when they were young? People have to look forward. I think you are living a good life now. You have bought a big mule. I heard that I also bought a lot of food, what is this called, Fu Ji Tai is here!"
Hearing this, Xu Huaiyi turned around and saluted him, "Thank you, Second Uncle Gao, for your teaching."
Second Uncle Gao waved his hand, "What are you teaching? I don't understand anything, but to be fair, it's okay. Now that you are supporting the Gu family, you really can't be too good-tempered. Otherwise, how can you be worthy of your father-in-law?"
Xu Huaiyi looked like he accepted it humbly, "Yes..."
Uncle Liu also sighed with emotion, "Your father-in-law entrusted you with the care of his only daughter, so you have to take responsibility. Now that you have moved out from the Xu family, we will be two families from now on. Although it is said that filial piety must be fulfilled in gratitude, but both sides , there should be a priority..."
This statement is almost obvious, let Xu Huaiyi fulfill his filial duty to the Gu family first, and leave the Xu family behind. If there is a conflict between the two families, the Gu family's face will definitely take priority.
Several people expressed their support for Xu Huaiyi one by one.
