Chapter 5 (Planning)

At dawn, the village was still covered with a layer of mist, like a light veil on a girl's body, embellishing the countryside with a bit of hazy beauty.

At this time, there was a burst of donkey cries at the entrance of the village, but it was the white father Bai Dafu and his wife Lu, who were taking advantage of the sky to transport vegetables to Anping County, which was more than ten miles away (here: 1 mile = 500 meters), although Yuxi Village was close to Anping County, but it was also necessary to travel for half an hour by donkey cart, of course, not to mention walking on foot for more than an hour, after all, this thing was in ancient times, even if it was a specially built road, it was difficult to move forward.

"I said, daddy, what the hell do you think?" Lu looked at her husband who was driving the car in front of him and asked, "Seeing that the children have grown up, don't you worry about their marriage?" ”

Listening to his wife's complaints, Father Bai sank on a black face peculiar to a farmer, and pursed his lips helplessly: "Don't worry, I have a spectrum in my heart." ”

"Reassured? How can I rest assured? It's not that you don't know how biased the hearts of the old couple in the family are, why, we have all raised a family for so many years, is it possible that in the end, we have to catch up with the children's lives? As soon as Lu heard her husband's reply, her eyes instantly widened and she said hurriedly, "If you just raise the old man and the two of you, I have nothing to say, but what is the matter with the second and third children." ”

Seeing that her husband was frowning and not speaking, Lu knew that there was a drama in this matter, so he explained, "It's not that I don't allow you to help them, but you also have to divide the object, and the third family is just that, but if you look at the second family, Xiao Gao's family knows how to stir up trouble all day long." Speaking of this, she couldn't help but complain, "Don't talk far, just what our family Cuicui has done, on the surface, your mother does not agree to ask for a doctor, but inside it is not instigated by the second child." Lu pursed his lips and snorted: "Don't think I don't know, last time it was Xiao Gao's broken mouth, what did you say to your mother that it is time to marry Da Long's daughter-in-law, rather than wasting money on us Cuicui, it is better to keep it for Da Long to marry his daughter-in-law." ”

When Father Bai saw his wife say this, his hand holding the reins was about to burst out with green tendons, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How did you know about this?" ”

"It was when they were muttering in the house that day that we heard the stones in our house just outside the window when they were playing."

Father Bai pondered for a while, turned his head to the Lu family and said, "I understand what you said, but the old man just refuses to divide the family, if I insist on dividing it, I won't be able to pass the level of filial piety." ”

"So what are you going to do? You can't just be stiff. When Lu heard this, he became anxious.

"What are you anxious about, I don't mean that I don't know it, it's just that this matter is well planned."

"So, how do you plan?"

Father Bai stared at the road ahead, waved his whip, and said, "Actually, I have thought about this for a long time, but I couldn't make up my mind at that time. After speaking, he paused again, "But since things have come to this point, for the sake of our small family and for the sake of the children, I have to do this."

Seeing that her husband had already made up her mind, Lu immediately smiled, "That kid, father, what are you going to do, tell me about it, so that I can have a bottom in my heart."

"The shopkeeper Wang of Baifu Building once told me that the owner wants to move the restaurant to Lin'an County, and it will not be opened here."

"What! What can we do in the future, there is not much land at home, and the old couple is even more eccentric, so if we split up, how much do we get, this, how can there be a way to live! When Lu Shi heard this, his face immediately turned white with fright, and he said in a panic.

"Can I not know this, the shopkeeper Wang has already discussed with me, and will help me introduce me to another restaurant in the county when the time comes," Father Bai saw that his wife's face was white with fright, and quickly explained,

"Huh~~ So that's the case, it really scared me just now." Hearing this, Lu slapped her husband and said angrily: "However, I said that the child is his father, why is the shopkeeper of the king so good to us, hehe, of course, I just ask casually, it doesn't mean anything." ”

"Heh, of course, no one in this world will be good to others for no reason," Father Bai couldn't help but laugh softly when he heard his wife's words, "To have today's results, of course, it depends on the usual business, I always respect him, and I will give him a thirty percent commission for this vegetable business." Father Bai shook his head and said, "Although this is just a small amount of money for him, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is not meat, not to mention that he sees that I usually do things cheerfully and am also interesting, so it's good to have a good fate, right?" ”

"Oh, I see, but I said that Dafu, if the family is really separated, then our donkey is like this? It's all something you earn back little by little, but you can't afford to be cheaper. Lu thought about it and felt that what her husband said was indeed reasonable, so she asked the question of the ownership of the donkey, after all, this is also earned by his own man, and it is really unwilling to say that he is willing to give other people his heart like this, but as the so-called "parents are here, there is no selfish wealth", if he dares to take possession of it so privately, it is not appropriate.

"You forget, didn't I say that the donkey was 'rented' from the restaurant to transport vegetables," Father Bai squeezed his eyebrows at Lu while driving the donkey, and said, "Since I can't do this job, this 'rented' donkey will naturally have to be returned." ”

"Ah, okay, it's worthy of being in charge, this is smarter than us." Hearing this, Lu smiled and pushed her husband and praised her. "That's it, otherwise why wouldn't the second and third children have been able to do this business in the first place."

Seeing his daughter-in-law praising himself, Father Bai suddenly smiled, "Alas, I said daughter-in-law, your 'master' shouted that made my whole body and mind feel comfortable, why don't you shout two more words?" "you, say you're fat and you're still panting, let me shout, until you can really be in charge." Lu glanced at her husband: "With this leisure, you might as well think about how to divide the family at that time." ”

"Driving~~" After the white father dragged back the donkey that was turned to the side of the road, he said to his wife slowly: "What are you anxious about, what is there to say about this, if the family knows that I don't have this job, we can't use this mouth, after a long time, naturally some people are in a hurry." Speaking of this, Father Bai smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "People are shrewd, just our big family is so 'eating and drinking for nothing', how much food do we have to waste?" Will they be willing? ”

"How can we count it as 'eating and drinking for nothing'? I don't want to think about how much money you've saved for them in just the past few years? If you want to say that this is eating and drinking for nothing, it should be the second and third children. As soon as Lu heard this, he was immediately unhappy.
