Chapter 267: It's All Debts

Uncle Gong Jian and his wife always felt that their eldest son was delayed by the private school in the village, you know, their two sons are extremely smart and talented.

For this youngest son, Uncle Gong Jian and Uncle Gong have high expectations. They feel that this little son has been smart and capable since he was a child, and he will be a big official in the future, and he will definitely be able to glorify his ancestors.

Although this youngest son has not made any achievements in the exam so far. But this does not prevent the uncle and the aunt from mentioning this little son every day, and they always meet with a dreamy smile.

When it comes to their youngest son, they seem to be able to see the person who announces the good news come to the door, or see the emperor's holy decree to promote their youngest son and enter the knighthood, and come to the house.

Therefore, every time the two of them mentioned their youngest son in the village, they were always full of praise. A few years ago, the people in the village didn't know the truth, and some people were really coaxed by them. But a few years have passed, and their youngest son has not even passed the test, and the people in the village have gradually understood that what the couple said was a dream.

But when others woke up, the couple was even more immersed in the dream they had constructed. So in this sweet dream, they did not find their youngest son, who is now very few, and came home to visit them. But he always asks others to go home and ask his parents for money.

The younger son always sends someone home to ask for money, and the reasons for asking for money are varied, such as attending literary meetings, buying books, visiting teachers, and so on. But the amount of money demanded by the youngest son is increasing, which makes the burden on the couple heavier and heavier. So they were even more eager to go to Gong Jian's house and take some useful things home.

has such a young son who can spend money, it is conceivable that the burden of Uncle Gong Jian's family is not light. Fortunately, their family background is relatively thick, you must know that Gong Jian's grandfather and grandmother's generation only had one family, and there were no other relatives.

So when a cold wind took away the lives of the old couple, Uncle Gong Jian and Uncle Gong Jian immediately separated Gong Jian's family, basically letting Gong Jian's family go out of the house.

After the separation, Uncle Gong Jian's family at that time was considered a large family in Chenjia Village. And when they married their daughter, they asked for a very considerable dowry. So if it weren't for them, they would have to provide for their two sons to study, then their current family background is estimated to be a little better than that of Landlord Chen's family.

No matter how big the family business is, it can't stand this family, it's too lazy to do it, and it can't get in and out. Uncle Gong Jian and his wife, after the eldest son failed to study, and the younger son went to school in a private school in the town, their family's family background was reduced year by year.

Up to now, in fact, Uncle Gong Jian's family has basically no savings except for starvation and a few acres of land. But fortunately, their ancestral house is very large, giving them shelter from the wind and rain, so the couple has not yet lived a situation where they have no food and no house to shelter from the wind and rain.

So in this large courtyard, now only two of them are left. Occasionally, the couple would feel a little lonely. After seeing the scene of the brothers' family and the happiness on the other side, the couple's hearts occasionally rose, a trace of envy, but more often than not, jealousy and unwillingness.

Every time at this time, the couple will sit together, say some sour things, and then look forward to themselves, if the youngest son is developed, after becoming a big official, the two of them will be called the old lady, when the old lady is so majestic, how rich and noble. At that time, these people in this village, who dared to stand in front of him, did not have to kneel and beg himself.

Of course, Uncle Gong Jian and his wife didn't expect that the private school in the town had actually withdrawn because of his advanced age. Don't talk about this husband and wife, that's what they said, the youngest son who studied in a private school in the town actually didn't know about it.

Because their youngest son had stopped studying at the private school in the town two years ago. Because their family lived far away from the town, at that time, the old gentleman of the private school just drove the youngest son of Uncle Gong Jian's family out of the private school alone. His parents were not notified.

For the past two years, their youngest son has been lounging around town. At first, he didn't dare to go back to Chenjia Village because he was afraid. But later, he met a few good friends, and this time, he knew a new life.

And because of the methods taught to him by his good friends, his parents at home did not realize that he had been kicked out of the private school. And whenever he didn't win, he would ask someone to go home and ask for it. The parents at home will obediently send it to themselves, and this is the life that a talented person like himself should live.

It's just that the uncle and his wife are still dreaming of their son becoming a big official, of course, it can only be a beautiful dream.

At this time, in this huge courtyard, the husband and wife both collapsed to the ground, exhausted and panting, sounding like two old bellows. Now they also saw the bad thing about the big yard, and the twenty rabbits scattered in, like mud cows into the sea, and did not make much movement at all.

The husband and wife both looked at each other, and when they saw each other's embarrassed appearance, they could also think of themselves, and they would definitely not be much better at this time. But they looked at the rabbit that was still struggling in their hands, and the two of them had no choice but to grit their teeth and barely stand up.

Uncle Gong Jian moved his tired body, slowly walked to the kitchen, and found a few patched cloth bags. I don't know when, it used to be used to hold food.

He stuffed the rabbit in his hand into his pocket, walked up to his mother-in-law, and motioned for her to put the two rabbits in his hand together.

Uncle Gong Jian has been holding these two rabbits tightly in her hands since she chased them just now, and she didn't dare to relax at all, for fear that if one was not careful, these two would also escape.

At this time, I saw Uncle Gong Jian come over with a cloth bag, and hurriedly stuffed the two rabbits into it, and then found the hemp rope next to it and tied the seal of the cloth bag tightly.

After Uncle Gong Jian finished doing this, he straightened up and beat his waist, and then walked slowly towards the main house, instructing Uncle Gong Jian as he walked.

"I'm so tired, I'm going to have to lie down for a while. Then you should quickly find the remaining seventeen rabbits, and they must be tied up. Remember, I'm going to have a rabbit stew in the evening. ”
