Tie Kui Extra Story (109)

On the day before the Lantern Festival, Hongbo sent someone to ask Ngawang to bring his younger siblings to his home for the New Year.

Duan Dongzi took the opportunity to say to Chunni: "Hongbo won't really leave the Awang brothers and sisters alone. In the future, don't meddle in the family affairs. I believe that Hongbo and his daughter-in-law will take care of the Awang brothers and sisters." Yes." The eldest son is actually very lenient, and if it were someone else, he might just leave him alone.

What Tiehu said last time shocked Chunni and made her ashamed. Now, she dare not say a word at home.

When the three brothers and sisters came over, they greeted Tiehu. Tiehu frowned when he saw Caixia, because she looked too much like Webster. But this appearance was given by his parents, and Tie Hu didn't show it even if he didn't like it.

But when Hongbo's two daughters came out in bright clothes, Caixia couldn't help showing jealousy. After Tiehu saw it, his expression became ugly. This great-granddaughter not only looks like Webster, but also has the temperament of that woman.

Thinking of this, Tiehu asked Mrs. Fu to take a few children back to the house after dinner. Everyone else stayed in the main room.

Tiehu asked the three Awang brothers and sisters: "Do you three brothers and sisters really know nothing about Wei Shi and the butcher?"

Awang said embarrassingly: "I have been in the county for the past two years, and I can only go back once every three to five months. And every time I go home, I go to work with this ah Cai, and I don't pay attention to her strangeness." I know, he won't let Webster do such a scandal. When this happened, he didn't even dare to leave the door.

Ah Cai's dark face was also flushed red at this time: "Great-grandfather, I have to work in the field every day, and I have to go to the mountains to cut firewood when I am free. I am so tired every day, and I go back to the house to sleep after dinner every night." gone."

Awang helped to explain: "Our brothers used to do the work at home. Later, when I came to work in the county town, all the heavy and rough work in the family fell to A Cai."

On that day, Hongbo bought eight acres of land and two acres of land for them. Tenant out five acres of land to collect rent, and the remaining three acres and two acres of land are all grown by themselves. Duan Honglang and Webster didn't go to the fields, so all the work fell on the two brothers in the end.

Hongbo originally thought that Ah Cai was born thin and short, but he didn't expect that he was tired and short because of heavy work. It's really cruel to be a parent. Duan Honglang is not only in vain as a son, but also in vain as a father.

Tie Hu knew that A Cai was doing all the work at home, so he also believed his words.

Turning his head, Tiehu asked his granddaughter Caixia: "What about you? Don't you know?"

Caixia shook her head resolutely and said, "I don't know. Great-grandfather, grandfather, grandmother, uncle, I really don't know?"

Hongbo asked Caixia: "Then you don't go to visit on weekdays? You don't have any good friends in the village?" Ah Cai worked day and night,

Naturally, there is no time to drop by and chat. But Caixia is different. Looking at her fair skin, she knows that she has not gone to the ground.

Caixia cried and said: "I really don't know. I go to bed early every day, so I don't know if my mother will go out at night."

Awang didn't think much about it before, but now he became suspicious: "Your room is next to your parents. You really didn't know about it for more than two years?" If they knew in advance, they could stop Webster, unlike now. I can't hold my head up anymore.

If it is not impossible, he will leave here and go to a place where no one knows their brother and start over.

"Brother, I don't know, I really don't know."

Seeing her guilty look, Hong Bo knew she was lying: "Tell me, when did you know about this?"

Under the pressure of everyone, Caixia finally couldn't resist, and burst into tears: "I, I also found out by accident. But my mother said that if I dare to say a word to the outside world, I will be beaten to death. I, I am very scared. I was afraid that my mother would kill me, so I didn't dare to tell my father."

Ah Cai suddenly said: "In March last year, you suddenly didn't have to work in the fields anymore. Then, within a few days, Mother bought you a pair of silver bracelets. Since then, Mother has bought you new clothes from time to time. You Did you know about this in March last year?" He felt a little strange before, and asked Wei Shi why he didn't let Caixia go to the ground. Webster said that Caixia was too old and too tanned to speak well of others, so Ah Cai didn't think about it. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be this reason.

Caixia naturally denied it.

Not to mention Tiehu, Hongbo and others, even Awang and Acai knew she was lying.

Asking the servant girl to take the three brothers and sisters down to rest, Tie Hu said to Chunni and Hongbo, "She has exactly the same temperament as Webster. If it is not handled well, it will be another disaster."

Hong Bo said: "Grandfather, it's easy to handle. After she is filial piety, I will marry her to another place." If they are married far away, they will not be involved in anything.

"I'm afraid that in the past two years, she will not be peaceful."

Chun Ni hurriedly said: "It's easy to handle, so we will detain her at home and not let her go anywhere."

Tiehu glanced at Chuni, and said, "It's not easy for Honglin to raise a family by himself. You husband and wife can relieve his burden to some extent. After the spring, you will go there." In fact, he couldn't trust Chuni. So let her go to Tongcheng, so that everyone can live a clean life.

Chunni was worried that Tiehu didn't want to go to Tongcheng anymore, but Duan Dongzi agreed. When going to Tongcheng, Chunni does laundry, cooks and takes care of the children, so he only needs to work hard every day. Although tired, but not so much trouble.

After the Lantern Festival, Hongbo called his two brothers and said, "Awang, you have already learned the craft from the master, and I don't worry about it. It's just Acai, what are your plans for the future?"

Ah Cai was a little at a loss: "I, uncle, I have no plans, I just want to plant the land well."

Hongbo was very distressed when he heard this. Ah Cai is only one year younger than his second son, but he looks like an old farmer: "Ah Cai, I wanted to find a job for your father in the past, but your father didn't like it. I don't know if you would like it." willing to do?"

Ah Cai was at a loss.

Hong Bo said: "This errand is a bit hard, but it is much better than farming. What's more, the food is from the yamen, and there is a salary every month. With this errand, it is also an advantage for you to say goodbye in the future."

Ngawang was overjoyed, seeing his younger brother was still there foolishly, he pushed him hard: "Thank you uncle!" He was still worried about Ah Cai's future, if he got an errand, he didn't have to worry about it.

Ah Cai was still a little confused, but he always listened to what Ah Wang said: "Thank you uncle."

"Tell uncle quickly, you will do well."

Ah Cai hurriedly said: "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely work hard and not lose face, Uncle."

Looking at A Cai's stupid look, Hong Bo couldn't help showing a smile: "I called you here this time, and I have one more thing to tell you. Your father was set up by someone back then and lost all his family fortune. .Later that gambling house was seized, and the property of the owner of the gambling shop was confiscated by the Yamen. I went out and helped you get some money back."

Not to mention Ah Cai, even Ah Wang was a little confused.

Hongbo said: "There is not much money, only two hundred and eighty taels. I am afraid that your father will go to gamble with the money and not dare to give it to him. I plan to give it to you when you grow up and get married. Ah Wang, Ah Cai, look Is this money for you to hold for yourself, or should I help you buy property?"

Awang quickly came back to his senses and said, "Uncle, please help us buy a house!" With the house, the brothers can count as a foothold in the county.

Moreover, they have a house, a land, and an errand. After the filial piety, their brothers can talk about a good marriage.

Seeing Hongbo looking at him, Ah Cai hurriedly said, "Uncle, I will listen to elder brother."

Hong Bo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll buy a house for each of you."

Awang was very sensible, and said: "Uncle, the house doesn't need to be very big. Three or four rooms are enough to live in." If it is too big, there must be not enough money. Hongbo was already very kind to their brothers, and he couldn't let him spend money for the two of them anymore.

Hong Bo was very relieved, and said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will arrange it." After getting married and having children, three or four rooms are a bit crowded. If the money is not enough, he just needs to make up for it. The child is sensible, and he is also happy to subsidize him.

On the second day, Ngawang worked in the shop again. Ah Cai took Caixia back to the village. This is also what Tiehu meant. He had to wait for Chunni to leave before he could let A Cai go to the Yamen as an errand, and then arrest Caixia. As for these two months, just let Ah Cai watch her.

Chunni was very sad to see that Tiehu didn't trust her so much.

Duan Dongzi saw her crying alone in the room, and said, "Who can blame this? Don't you blame yourself? Every time you promised your father not to subsidize Honglang, you turned around and handed over everything to Honglang. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to trust you." Therefore, Tie Hu shouldn't have mistrusted her.

Chun Ni said: "Then let's go to Tongcheng as soon as the weather warms up!" I'm worried about going back to Tongcheng every day here, at least Honglin is filial and obedient to the Yu family and listens to her.

Duan Dongzi also hopes to go to Tongcheng earlier. In Tongcheng, Chunni is too busy to think about things, and his ears are clean. Unlike here, I always cry. Not only irritable, but also afraid of something wrong with her crying.

Like Chunni, there is Xiao Shi. However, Chunni's unhappiness was caused by herself, while Xiao Shi was made angry by Ma Shi.

Xiao was so angry that she said, "Big girl just fell, and it's not a big deal? You pushed a child to the ground, you're really capable!"

Ma said angrily: "I just wanted to push her away, and I didn't use any force at all. Who knows why she fell to the ground."

"So you don't think you're wrong?"

Mrs. Ma really didn't think she was wrong, and said: "She is obviously pretending, the purpose is to frame me, she is so vicious at such a young age."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Ma said angrily: "Mother, I saw very clearly at that time that she tripped the big girl on purpose. Mother, you didn't see that big girl's hands were bleeding, if you want to stay People won’t be able to talk about the scar afterward.” If it’s not my own granddaughter, I don’t know how to feel sorry for her, even if the child fell like that, it’s not a big deal.

Xiao Shi covered her chest and stopped talking.

Turning around, Mrs. Xiao said to Ning Hai: "That girl from the Xu family is really domineering. But no matter how domineering you are, you shouldn't do it as an adult! Seeing her tripping up the big girl, tell Mrs. Xu's family to let her give it to the big girl. Niu apologized. From now on, let Da Niu not play with her. Now it’s all right, what is reasonable has become unreasonable. Outsiders don’t know, and they will say that our Ning family is bullying others.”

Ning Hai said dryly: "You taught her well."

Xiao said: "Such a simple truth, do you still need to teach it? Master, when I take her out, she either throws embarrassment at others or argues with them, and then comes back early. This time is better, directly attacking people and children .”

What Ning Hai could say, he didn't want to say anything.
