The spacious compound of Patriarch Tan's house was crowded with villagers, and everyone had a look of joy on their faces.

Some of them had already read the recruitment notice of the Qiduo family and were going to go to the Qiduo family later, and some of them didn't know the news yet, and they only knew it after hearing what Brigade Commander Tan said.

Knowing that there is such a high salary, except for those who are usually lazy, everyone else is willing to go.

Now seeing Tan Dejin and Qiduo, everyone greeted them very affectionately, and wanted to ask for more details, some people wish they could go over to dig lotus roots to make money now.

At this moment, Qiduo didn't have the heart to answer these questions, he just wanted to get the Zhao family done as soon as possible, otherwise this shameless person might really be able to obstruct the digging of lotus root tomorrow.

"Everyone, don't be bored, in an hour, we will come to talk to you in detail." Tan Dejin said loudly to everyone according to the meaning of Qiduo.

The villagers then fell silent.

Patriarch Tan saw them go and returned, and his expression was a little wrong, so he hurriedly brought them into the house and asked the reason.

Qiduo's eyes were red, and he said very aggrieved to Patriarch Tan, "Patriarch Grandpa, you have to be the master of our family." ”

"Girl, don't be sad yet, tell me what's wrong." Patriarch Tan said busily.

"Patriarch Grandpa, my grandmother now knows that there is a lotus root on the side of Luhuapo, and just told my father that those lotus roots do not belong to our family, and they are theirs, if they are not given to them, our family will not want to dig lotus roots.

Patriarch Grandpa, you also know the situation of our family, Liulang has always been in poor health, and he owed hundreds of taels of silver to others last time he was sick, so we pointed to digging some lotus roots to sell to see if we could pay back some.

Patriarch Grandpa. You were there when we first separated. The deed of separation is clearly written in black and white. Luhuapo is owned by our family, but now it is ...... We don't know what to do, only to trouble you, grandpa. Qiduo rubbed his eyes and said what had happened.

Since Old Man Tan and his wife can do such shameless things without regard for their face, there is no need for them to cover it up.

At the same time, talking about the difficulties of the family made the patriarch feel some sympathy in his heart, and the balance of emotions would naturally shift to his own side.

And I would like to remind you that the separation is being done.

"Alas. Your grandfather is so confused now, how can he do this, go, I'll take a look at you. Patriarch Tan slammed the table hatefully and waved his big hand.

What he did when he split up is now that there is a disagreement, he naturally has to deal with it.

And he also had anger, Old Man Tan and the Zhao family acted like this, clearly did not take him seriously, and everyone discussed the matter together. How can you go back on your word.

Also, yesterday the Lin family withdrew from their relatives. He also probably knew some inside information, and he was already a little dissatisfied with Old Man Tan and his wife.

Qiduo winked at Tan Dejin.

Seeing the appearance of the Tan patriarch, the old man Tan and the Zhao family were stunned, they thought that Tan Dejin had brought Qiduo home, but they didn't expect to really call the patriarch over.

"Patriarch, please take a seat." Old Man Tan got up and called.

"I won't sit, second, you come with me to the study." Patriarch Tan waved his hand, and then went straight out of the house to the Tan family's study.

Old Man Tan followed Patriarch Tan to the study with a sneer.

Qiduo blinked, uh, why didn't the patriarch settle the matter in person?

Tan Dejin pursed his lips and sighed in his heart.

He really didn't want to make things go to this point, and he was forced to be helpless!

Qiduo looked at his father's expression, and knew that he felt a little uncomfortable, and the reason why his attitude was so resolute today should be that what he said to him before played a certain role.

Before coming to the front yard of Tan's house, the family also discussed countermeasures together, and Tan Dejin said at the time that if it really didn't work, he would divide two acres of lotus root for the Zhao family to dig up, after all, it was a family, and it was not a loss.

Qiduo said that if this forbearance can be exchanged for permanent peace, then two acres of lotus root can be given to Old Man Tan and them, and it doesn't matter if you make less money.

But what kind of person Zhao is, everyone knows that if you follow her wishes this time, she will not settle things, let alone thank her children and grandchildren for their filial piety in her heart, she only thinks it is natural. At the same time, they will think that their threat and temptation have worked, and they will use this trick more aggressively next time.

After asking for lotus root, she may come to ask for soybean sprouts and mung bean sprouts, as long as you have something in your house, she will come to ask for it.

Her greed will never be satisfied, and it will only make her family unbearable, and she will not want to live a peaceful life.

Qiduo's words, Xu and Tan Debao both agreed very much, and they must not agree to the conditions proposed by Zhao.

Even if you want to be filial to Old Man Tan, you can use other methods in the future.

Tan Dejin nodded at this time and said that he insisted on not agreeing to Zhao's request.

"You two get out of here, I'm annoyed when I look at it." Zhao scolded Tan Dejin and Qiduo with a cold face.

Qiduo shook his head lightly and went to the courtyard with Tan Dejin to wait for Patriarch Tan to come out.

She was still a little bottomless in her heart, and she wanted to call Patriarch Tan over to reason in person, but who knew that he actually called Old Man Tan to speak alone.

I am worried that Patriarch Tan will be persuaded by Old Man Tan's crooked reasoning, and when the time comes, it will be bad for him.

I don't know what Patriarch Tan said to Old Man Tan, the two stayed in the study for half an hour before coming out, so that the Qiduo father and daughter could wait.

didn't know the content of the conversation, Qiduo couldn't help but feel apprehensive in his heart.

Seeing them come out, Qiduo and Tan Dejin hurriedly greeted them, looked at Patriarch Tan, and looked forward to the answer.

Patriarch Tan said, "Dejin, Qiduo, your grandfather has agreed and will no longer fight with you for that pond lotus." This is also his kindness as an elder, in the future, you must be filial to their two elders, can you not forget the grace, know the way? ”

These words can be regarded as giving face to Old Man Tan.

"Well, patriarch grandpa, rest assured, filial piety to the elders is what our juniors should do, grandma is so sympathetic to our juniors, we will definitely not treat grandma badly." Qiduo smiled and nodded in response.

"Yes, there is no need for the patriarch to say, we should also teach our father and mother a lesson." Tan Dejin followed.

"That's good." Patriarch Tan nodded.

It's just that Old Man Tan's face is not good-looking, and he really hurts when he loses those lotus roots in vain.

He regretted it. When the family was separated, it was time to go to Luhuapo to take a look.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world.

But he still has some gratitude to Patriarch Tan. did not reprimand him in front of his children and grandchildren.

Patriarch Tan was in the study. Count him hard, think about it carefully, those words are also very reasonable, so he no longer fights for this pond lotus.

Patriarch Tan said, your eldest son's family is living a good life, you also have a glorious face as an old man, and Dejin is a kind and filial person, so he will live a good life in the future. I can still watch you suffer and be poor, and if you don't say anything about it, I won't be able to spare them.

But if you do this now, it will only chill the hearts of your children and grandchildren, and where will they sincerely be filial to you in the future. Think about the last time the Wu family came, if it weren't for the Dejin family's idea, where would you have picked up your face later, wouldn't it have become a joke in the village......

Old Man Tan sighed lightly, nodded to Tan Dejin, and said. "Boss, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat. I just want our family to have a good life. I only hope that your family will be rich in the future, but don't forget the fathers and brothers in this courtyard, and you can't forget your roots. ”

"Well, Dad, I made a note of it, I'm not that kind of person." Tan Dejin nodded earnestly.

"Cheng, let's do it, you dig lotus roots, I'll let everyone in the family go over to help, and you can pay for it." Old Man Tan put forward new conditions.

Qiduo's brows couldn't help but twist.

These people from the Tan family go to dig lotus roots, it's really hard to manage!

"Grandpa, who's going?" Qiduo couldn't help but ask.

"Go into the house and ask your grandma." Old Man Tan pointed to the upper room.

Qiduo nodded, and several people entered the upper room.

Patriarch Tan also followed.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of Patriarch Tan and Qiduo's father and daughter, the Zhao family knew that Old Man Tan had been convinced, and he was suddenly depressed.

"Old woman, you can arrange it to see which people in the family are going to help dig lotus roots." Old Man Tan said.

Zhao gritted his teeth secretly.

Even if he was unwilling, he didn't dare to refute Patriarch Tan.

She said with a cold face, "Except for you and me and Osmanthus, as well as Qilang and Bali who can't work, everyone else goes." ”

She thought that the wages of the Qiduo family were also quite high, and the more people went, the more money they earned.

"Cheng, then call them out now, and all of them will go to my house for a meeting." Patriarch Tan nodded in response.

Qiduo and Tan Dejin didn't object, just go if you want, if you can't work, you will all come back then.

Patriarch Tan and Qiduo left the Tan family first, called Tan Debao together, and went to Patriarch Tan's house, just to set the number and list of hired workers.

There are also some important matters that need to be explained clearly in person, so as to save time for arguing.

Zhao called all the family members over and said that they would dig lotus root tomorrow.

Hearing that he was going to dig lotus roots, Santao was the first to shout, "I'm not going, the mud is dirty." ”

"Not going? You think you're a young lady, huh! Zhao sneered.

Sizao and Wuxing, who also wanted to call, shut up and didn't dare to squeak anymore.

"Mother?" Santao looked at Yang, hoping that she would intercede.

Yang thought of the family affairs of the Xiang family, Santao will be the housewife in the future, how can he do such rough work.

She pursed her lower lip and said to Zhao, "Yes, mother, Santao and Wuxing are not used to ......."

"If they don't do it, they can do it, let them sew up their mouths, which one is born to do things, I used to be too used to them, I was used to them at all, I said I had to go." Zhao slapped the table hard and counted.

"Then why is my sister-in-law not going?" Santao was so aggrieved that tears rolled in her eyes.

"Yo, you dead girl, you dare to fight your sister-in-law when you do things, she is your elder, she is not big or small, and she has no education at all, do you want me to brush you with big ears." Zhao screamed at the top of his voice.

Tan Guihua held her head proud.

Santao hung his head hatefully.

Under the coercion of the Zhao family, the people named by the Tan family had to dig up lotus roots, and then Old Man Tan asked Tan Decai and Erlang Sanlang to go to the Tan patriarch's house for a meeting to see what to say.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Patriarch Tan repeated his previous words again, and then asked Tan Dejin to explain some requirements and details to everyone clearly.

"Duo, you can say it." Tan Dejin whispered to Qiduo.

Qiduo nodded, walked in front of everyone, and was about to speak, when there was a mean coaxing below to ask Tan Dejin, "Brother Dejin, who is in charge of your family?" The patriarch asked you to say, how do you let the seven girls say it. ”

Immediately, two or three people followed behind.

This is someone who is red in the eyes of the Qiduo family, and deliberately stabbed Tan Dejin with words, wanting him to make a fool of himself in public.

Of course, these people didn't expect to dig lotus roots, thinking that I would rather not have the money than help your family.

Look at Tedjin and see how he answers this question. (To be continued......)
