Chapter 488: Who's to blame

Uncle Gong Jian turned over in bed several times, and he finally couldn't help sighing, thinking about it, he always felt that these things, when it was time to be held accountable in the end, should be held accountable to the nephew named Gong Jian, and his brother who was paralyzed in bed.

If it weren't for that family, how could his eldest son have lived so miserably in a private school. If it weren't for the fact that your eldest son's life in a private school was really difficult, how could the younger son be tempted to go to a private school in the town.

If it weren't for the fact that the youngest son went to the private school in the town, how could he have neglected discipline and let the youngest son develop such a character full of lies and no responsibility.

I still remember my youngest son, who used to ask for money from the family, to participate in literary meetings, to buy some books or stationery, to change clothes, to go out to socialize, etc., which shows how complicated the world of scholars is.

And the situation at home is getting worse and worse, which Uncle Gong Jian also knows. He didn't know how a shrewd person like himself could take care of this family business well, so that the family situation became more and more dilapidated. He clearly remembers now that he got most of the family property.

With such a large courtyard, several large tiled houses, and ten acres of fertile land, these things on the surface are already considered large households in the village. Not to mention the private silver of his father and mother that he turned out, as well as his mother's jewelry.

Where did all this money go? Uncle Gong Jian couldn't help but scratch his head again. He only remembered that he had hollowed out his heart and rented the land to the people of the same village to plant, but he received a lot of silver and grain every year, as well as some other odd and bits and pieces. This one is no problem, but where did all my huge family property go?

Gradually, he remembered that since he decided to provide for his two sons to study, the family had spent a lot of money on their two sons.

The things that my son uses to read must not be too bad and will make people laugh. Dress decently, and even when the youngest son was young, he would often ask for dozens of taels of silver from him, saying that he was going to buy some ancient fan or some jade pendant to dub clothes. At that time, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

But later, as the younger son stretched out his hand more and more, the family gradually could no longer meet his requirements. Gradually, only when the youngest son said that he needed to buy some books, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, Uncle Gong Jian would bring a few taels of silver for him to use.

Is it because the silver money he took away was too small later, so that the youngest son really needed the money, but he knew that he couldn't get it from himself, so he took a risk, made up a lot of lies, and finally cheated the three acres of land from his mother's hands.

Uncle Gong Jian sighed deeply, his palms couldn't help but clench, he knew that these things were still to blame on his brother and Gong Jian's family.

How the family's money has been spent in the past few years, Uncle Gong Jian certainly has a general direction in mind.

But what he was even more resentful in his heart was that in the past two years, his brother's family had obviously become richer, and the things he ate and used had already surpassed the level of his own family, and even beyond the level of any family in the village.

But the family was like an iron rooster, and they didn't pull out a hair. The two of them came to the door several times, but they didn't get any benefits from that family.

Thinking of this, Uncle Gong Jian couldn't help but curse again and again, and he knew that his brother was a treacherous man.

Look, now it's finally exposed, how good it was before, that tattered home can be taken by yourself, and make that look of obedience, as if your family bullied their family.

I almost let everyone in the village know that my family went to their house to loot, but in fact, what their family took away at that time, in fact, they didn't look down on the things they took, and their own family was much better than theirs. Take a little bit of something from them, that is also to give them face, and you can see it.

However, when their family became truly wealthy and he could really look at their things, he showed his true colors. As the eldest brother, he was driven out again and again by their children and ridiculed again and again, but he hid in the house and pretended to be a good person.

At this time, how can you not know to reach out and send your things to your family. I don't know, I'm going to take your family's money and come over to honor your eldest brother.

Hypocritical and cunning, he has known since he was a child, and he has long seen the essence of this brother clearly. When his father and mother were there, they were all deceived by his cunning brother, and the people in the village were even more fooled by his brother's pretend.

Now that I have gone out, no one in the village said that Gong Jian's family was kind and helped everyone a lot. This is the illusion that the family has worked so hard to create. If their family is really kind, how can they tolerate it, his uncle's family is as poor as it is now, and he doesn't take out a penny to give his uncle's family flowers.

The more Uncle Gong Jian thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't wait to sit up now, run to Gong Jian's house and curse bitterly, and snatch all their money into his own house. In this way, his youngest son will not worry about the money, but will steal and sell his own things.

But immediately, Uncle Gong Jian also sighed. The family didn't know where to hide, they hadn't returned home for months, and the courtyard door of the house had been locked by General Tie. Now he just went to the door, and no one let him vent, an empty courtyard, who did he go to settle accounts.

Soon, Uncle Gong Jian remembered the five acres of land that he was thinking about. was taken away by his son in this way, isn't this a knife in his heart. Uncle Gong Jian felt that the whole person was in pain.

Now the family relies on these five acres of land, and the income of ten taels of silver a year has lived, and it has gone to six taels at once, and now the family has an annual income of four taels of silver. How can this make their family live?

Yaozu's child still has to continue studying, and he has missed this year's children's exam, and he will only be able to take the children's exam next year. The year after that, I will be able to take the Xiucai exam.

When Yaozu achieves fame, it will take two years. Uncle Gong Jian couldn't help but have a headache, relying on the annual income of four taels of silver, how could he afford a scholar.
