Chapter 356: Sorting Out

Xia Zhu's appearance was a little shrunken. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He looked at Old Man Xia, then at Second Uncle Xia, and finally glanced at Xia Zhi from under his nose. Although he was a little reluctant, Xia Zhu still knelt down to kowtow to Xia Zhi.

The summer solstice was busy saying no.

"Let him knock," said Old Man Xia, "this is not an ordinary kindness, and it is also a lesson." You are bigger than him, and you can bear this head. ”

Xia Zhu kowtowed to Xia Zhi.

The mood of the summer solstice is slightly delicate. Although she had long planned to follow the customs, she still couldn't fully accept the etiquette of kowtowing and the fact that everyone had to kowtow at every turn.

Maybe it's because of the short time. Although she feels that she has been very integrated, it should still take time to fully integrate.

Seeing that Xia Zhu kowtowed, Old Man Xia asked him to get up. He also said a few words to Second Uncle Xia and Xia Zhu earnestly, which basically meant that the two of them should accept the lessons of this time, don't think about being opportunistic, and be a farmer in the future.

"It's better in this house than in that prison. Old man Xia said.

Second Uncle Xia and Xia Zhu both lowered their heads.

“…… When they came back, they were penniless and had no food, and they could not watch them starve to death. …… It's all from me. Even though I am here, they have borrowed your light. A family of flesh and blood, this is no way. I told them, your second uncle also knows what they know. ”

Third Uncle Xia had known about this for a long time, and Old Man Xia specially said it to Xia Qiao and Xia Zhi.

Xia Qiao and Xia Zhi both nodded.

Subsequently, Old Man Xia said that the future arrangements for Second Uncle Xia's family were similar to what Layue had told Xia Zhi before, in short, he helped Second Uncle Xia read this period first, and then let Second Uncle Xia's family continue to plant the ten acres of land.

The ten acres of land Old Man Xia used to look at it for Second Uncle Xia, and he didn't say that he would take it back, and now he will officially return it to Second Uncle Xia.

"Dad, you are my own father. I'm thankful for having my father. Second Uncle Xia said with a crying voice.

"If you know today, why bother in the first place. Forget it, you know it yourself, I don't have much to say. Old Man Xia sighed.

Second Uncle Xia took the opportunity to say: "Dad, you see that my family, as well as the three members of the old Guo family, now rely on you and my mother, and we can't help it." We can do the work that the third child can do. In May and July, they are still older than the lunar month, and the two pillars can also work......"

Second Uncle Xia accompanied the smiling face, and told Old Man Xia the meaning of their family. They want to go to Linshui Town to set up a stall for french fries like Uncle Xia and get a fixed salary.

This meaning, Second Uncle Xia had already mentioned it to Old Man Xia in private a few times before. Old Man Xia never agreed. Now Second Uncle Xia brought it up in front of Xia Zhi again, just thinking that this business was handled by Xia Zhi, and Old Man Xia's temper should be unwilling to make decisions alone, so he had to ask Xia Solstice what he meant.

Sure enough, Old Man Xia pondered for a while, and then looked at Xia Solstice.

"Sixteen, you started this business, in your opinion?" Old Man Xia can ask like this, his own mind is already quite obvious.

As Layue said, Old Man Xia still loves Second Uncle Xia. The other two shares are profitable, and he, as a father, naturally wants his second son's family to make some money and live a good life.

The summer solstice has been prepared early.

“…… Although it's me~ in charge, there is also my uncle and you who are counted together, and the other third uncle and third aunt have been contributing......"

The meaning of the summer solstice is that this matter should be decided by the big guys, that is, by voting, and the minority obeys the majority.

“…… I count one vote, you and my uncle count one vote, my third uncle and third aunt count one vote, Layue and Xiaolinzi count one vote, and my brother and Xiao Shuer count one vote. ”

As soon as Second Uncle Xia heard Xia Zhi's statement, he immediately felt bad. The arrangement of the summer solstice seems to be quite fair, and everyone who contributes has the right to vote, but this so-called distribution of votes is too unfavorable for him.

Second Uncle Xia looked at Old Man Xia, hoping that Old Man Xia could call the shots for him: "Dad, a few of them have a good relationship. However, except for Sixteen, Layue and Xiaolinzi are both children, as well as Xiaoshuer...... , the bridge, the bridge counts as a vote, you and Xiaolong ......"

Second Uncle Xia's original idea was that as soon as Old Man Xia brought it up, Xia Zhi understood what Old Man Xia meant and nodded, and the matter was settled.

Old Man Xia pondered for a while, then hesitated and did not speak.

"Xiao Shu'er, although Layue and Xiao Linzi are young, they have all contributed a lot. They will grow up, and in the future, the family will not have to ask them to contribute? Why should our children be better than other people's families, then they must be cultivated from an early age. We don't value them ourselves, do we expect others to value them?" said Xia Zhi busily.

Xia Zhi's words moved Old Man Xia.

Not to mention anything else, the changes in several children in the family have been seen by Mr. Xia in his eyes for a while. Layue used to be very shy, blushing when she saw people talking, and she usually spoke very little, but now she has a head on her head when she speaks, and she is also pungent and capable.

Xiao Shu'er is more sensible than before, and Xiao Xialin's diligence and enthusiasm.

People outside now see him praising the children of the Xia family for being good and promising.

By the way, there are also bridges.

The changes to the bridge are also very dramatic.

These are all because of the summer solstice. Xia Zhi has been practicing the truth she just said. And the distribution of the summer solstice just now is also very cautious, for example, Layue and Xia Lin only count one vote.

Xia Zhi, a child, has always been thoughtful and proper.

"Just do as sixteen says. Old Man Xia said, "Sixteen, what should I do next." ”

"It's easy. Xia Zhi smiled, "It is to approve of my second uncle's joining in with the raising of hands, just raise one hand." There were many people who raised their hands, so my second uncle joined in. If there are fewer people raising their hands, well, we'll talk about that later. ”

"Okay, let's do it. Old Man Xia nodded, and then looked at the big guy.

No one raised their hand.

Old Man Xia felt that if this was the case, it seemed that he would not be able to raise his hand first.

"I'll say it first, I don't agree. The little black fish didn't care about anything, so although no one asked him, he still spoke first.

Old Man Xia is even more difficult to raise his hand. He looked at Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia San.

If Old Man Xia raised his hand, Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia would almost raise their hands with him. But now Old Man Xia didn't raise his hand, just looked at them. The husband and wife hesitated, and according to their hearts, they were unwilling to let Uncle Xia's family get involved.

It's not that they're afraid that Second Uncle Xia will thin up their income, it's that they are all worried about the character of Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia.

"We don't agree either. Layue said loudly. She's a lot bolder now than she used to be.

"Yes, we're not happy. Xia Lin immediately echoed with a milky voice.

Then Xiao Shu'er just smiled: "I'll follow my Sister Layue." Brother, huh. ”

Xia Qiao glanced at Xiao Shu'er and didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

From Old Man Xia's point of view, there is no point in continuing, the current situation is already very clear. "So let's do it first. ”

The disappointed expression on Second Uncle Xia's face couldn't be concealed no matter what.

Xia Zhi looked left and right and said with a smile: "I don't think there is a need to rush this matter, everyone will discuss it slowly." This is another living mouth, it is Xia Zhi's face and thoughts to Old Man Xia and Second Uncle Xia.

This face and thoughts are mainly for Old Man Xia.

Old Man Xia immediately understood, he smiled, and when he spoke again, his tone changed a little. "Second brother, it's a good idea that you want to work. However, you have to reflect on your mistakes this time. There is also a lot of work at home, and there is always work to do if you want to work. In the coming year, follow me to farm. ”

Second Uncle Xia had no choice but to agree. However, he rolled his eyes and mentioned another thing to Old Man Xia.

"The three members of the Guo family came over together, they had nowhere else to run, and the other thing was that their Yuhuan and our two pillars were married. Dad, otherwise, let's take care of the two children's family affairs first. If you are younger, then you don't have a round house first, and it will be convenient to do anything later. The three members of the Guo family ate and lived in our house, and they were at ease in the future. ”

This matter was discussed by Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia a long time ago, and they were waiting for Xia Zhi to come back and bring it up.

The two of them are wishful thinking.

The three members of the Guo family followed over to eat and live for nothing, and they also borrowed their light to save their lives before. If they don't marry Guo Yuhuan now, if there is any change in the future, they will suffer.

There's one thing they know very well. If they had been farming at home, Guo Xi would not have rushed to give his daughter to Xia Zhu as his daughter-in-law. Now everyone is down, but Guo Xi still has a house and a shop in the city.

married Guo Yuhuan into the door earlier, and the daughter-in-law entered the door of her house, which made it more convenient to arouse, and she didn't have to worry about eating white rice at all. In addition, the two of them have another thought.

Guo Xi's house and shop in Fucheng.

Since Xia Zhi knows people and has the means to settle the previous things, he will naturally be able to bring back the house and shop. This house and shop will have to be at least half of them if they are to come back.

The so-called contract before can't be counted now, but Guo Xi only has Guo Yuhuan as a daughter, and Xia Zhu marries Guo Yuhuan, which is equivalent to owning the house and shop.

One last point.

Now they don't have a penny in their hands, but Old Man Xia feels sorry for his son and grandson, and he is still a person who wants to be faced. So Xia Zhu is married now, and Old Man Xia will definitely be responsible for doing it decently. In other words, all the expenses must be paid by Mr. Xia.

Originally, they may have been worried that Old Man Xia would not be able to scrape together these coins for a while. But now they don't have to worry at all.

Isn't this the summer solstice back? Look at the things that Xia Solstice bought, they are worth a lot of silver. Xia Zhi is filial to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, she can watch Old Man Xia make trouble.

The daughter-in-law is at home, and the person who gave the money also has it, so if you don't do family affairs now, do you wait for the old man to let them eat themselves next summer?

At that point, they'll have to pay for it themselves.

And now is the perfect time to bring it up. Old Man Xia just dismissed one thing, so it's not good to dismiss another one. Besides, a grandson's marriage to a daughter-in-law is a great event, isn't it?

Second Uncle Xia really took the pulse of Old Man Xia in this matter.

Old Man Xia asked Second Uncle Xia: "The two children are still young, are the old Guo family willing to get married now?" ”

Old Man Xia is still very kind and gentlemanly.

Second Uncle Xia didn't inherit this advantage of Old Man Xia at all.

"Willingly, surely willingly, it's a matter of time anyway. On the way back from Fucheng, Guo Xi mentioned it to me first. Or did I say that I was in a hurry, and I had to prepare for the children. Second Uncle Xia hurriedly said, "Dad, if you don't believe it, I'll call Guo Xi now and let him tell you in person." ”

People are under the low eaves, how can they not bow their heads, let alone people like Guo Xi who especially meet the wind and rudder. Xia Zhi thought so in his heart, but didn't say anything.

She wasn't going to get involved in it.

"Don't call anyone yet. Old Man Xia stopped Second Uncle Xia, and he turned his gaze to Xia Qiao's body.

Many of Old Man Xia's ideas are quite traditional. Xia Qiao is the eldest grandson, and according to Old Man Xia's expectations, Xia Qiao should be the first to marry a daughter-in-law. It's nothing for Xia Zhu to marry first, but getting married should still be behind Xia Qiao.

Xia Qiao saw Old Man Xia looking at him, and immediately understood what Old Man Xia meant. "Master, it's okay. I don't care about that. I don't plan to get married so early, and I can't let my brothers drag me along. ”

Xia Qiao is also a kind person of self-denial and revenge.

"Daqiao is a good boy, benevolent, like my brother. Second Uncle Xia immediately praised Xia Qiao.

Old Man Xia subconsciously went to see the summer solstice again.

Xia Zhi smiled and didn't speak.

Old Man Xia thought about it, so he didn't immediately agree to Second Uncle Xia. "I'll think again. Erzhu and Yuhuan are still small, so they are not in a hurry. ”

"Dad, I just thought, the two children have done things, and it will be convenient in the future. Second Uncle Xia still told Old Man Xia.

"Well, I'll think again. I'll write to you in two days. ”

"Dad, it would be nice if we had done their business a year ago. There were good days a year ago. Second Uncle Xia said again.

"Go, go, let's all go back to dinner. Old Man Xia didn't look at Second Uncle Xia, but only waved his hand to let Second Uncle Xia go.

Second Uncle Xia was reluctant. Mrs. Xia must have prepared a good meal, and the fragrance wafted out. He ate very happily at noon, and regained a little feeling of being in Fucheng. He still wanted to rub it here.

Xia Zhi and Xia Qiao must have come to eat.

Old Man Xia actually feels very sorry for his second son. But he also understands the character of his second son. He provides rations for his second son's family, and if he lets his second son rub it down one more meal, he will have no head.

He's not distressed. Can you still feel sorry for things with your children and grandchildren? But there must be a rule for living at home.

"Let's all go back to dinner. Sixteen and Ohashi have just returned, stay and eat, and I still have a lot to ask them. Old Man Xia said it more clearly. "Xiao Shu'er should also stay, her mother probably didn't have the heart to cook for him. ”

"After sixteen, you will eat here, and none of you will compare with sixteen. The little black fish announced iron-facedly.
