Chapter 304: Coming Home
Sending the customer away in front of him, he returned to the store with a calm face.
"What kind of stinky face are you, come back and show me!" A woman sits on a soft floor and embroiders flowers, she is Tang Fukang's wife Liu.
Born in a merchant's family, the family originally wanted to rely on Tang Fuchang's connections to make their family's business bigger, but where Tang Fu was at their mercy, as an in-laws, if they cooperate in good faith, it will be more beneficial than others, if they are not sincere, then there is nothing to say.
Over the years, Tang Fu grew up in Liu's maiden family and almost didn't get along, but their family still did business under the reputation of in-laws, and it was quite impressive.
But Tang Fukang and his wife are far from here, although Liu was born in a merchant family, she has been a delicate girl since she was a child, wrapped around her little feet, embroidered flowers, where will she do business, and later this grocery shop was opened, and she lost a lot of money in the early stage, or Tang Fuchang paid in advance.
Slowly, both husband and wife began to learn to do business, in a vain attempt to one day achieve the height of Tang Fuchang.
But dreams are dreams after all, Liu's body is frail, and he can't entertain in the store for a long time, Tang Fukang is also unlearned, he likes to chat with people, and he forgets about doing business while chatting, so even on this main street, their family's business is not colorful, but they are just barely making ends meet.
"I just saw the third brother passing, I don't know what's wrong, I'm in a hurry, and I didn't even say hello." Tang Fukang said with a smile.
There is one thing to say, although they are three brothers, the relationship between Tang Fushou and Tang Fukang has been even better since childhood, their eldest brother Tang Fuchang has been excellent since he was a child, not only reading well, but also very handsome, in comparison, the two of them have nothing to do, especially Tang Fushou, if it is not for rhetoric, he may not even be able to marry his daughter-in-law.
This status quo directly led to the two brothers joining forces to fight Tang Fuchang's autumn wind when they became adults, although they both have their own little Jiujiu in their hearts, but they are still on the same front in the face of some things.
Therefore, for Tang Fushou's strange appearance today, he felt that something unusual must have happened, and the other party must be hiding something from him.
Tang Fukang's wife Liu glared at him, "You are suspicious this day, what else can the third child do, he has been messing around in the gambling house all day, maybe he lost the gambling again this time, owes someone else's money, and is ready to run away!" Don't get mixed with it! ”
Although Tang Fukang was afraid of his wife Liu, he felt that something was wrong for no reason about today's incident, and there was always a feeling that told him that he had to find out.
"You look at the store first, I'll go out, and I'll go back when I go." Tang Fukang was uneasy and decided to go to Tang Fushou's house to find out the situation, otherwise he would not have a good time all day.
"Hey, you're leaving!" Liu raised his head and saw that Tang Fukang was about to go out with a coat, and he immediately exploded!
"You are a wreck, you don't have the ability to say it, my mother was also pampered and raised at home, what good did you get after marrying you? I have suffered a lot for you to have children, but you end up in this situation, you come to open a broken shop, and there are no customers, you are not teasing cats and dogs all day long, or chatting with those gangsters, you can do half a snack in this business? Have you ever taken care of things at home? ”
The more he talked, the more angry he became, Liu suddenly stood up, took one of her shoes and threw it over, Tang Fukang was far away, and he had already gone out, seeing her like this, and the people who were watching the excitement, he immediately felt that his man's self-esteem was greatly insulted.
So he didn't care that Liu's shoes were thrown outside, and left without looking back, ignoring the hysterical cursing behind him.
It is said that Tang Fushou has been walking towards his home, although this is not a rich area, but it also belongs to the few mansions in Suizhou City.
Tang Fushou's family has a two-entry house, with their house in the backyard and tenants in the front yard.
This mansion was not purchased by himself, let alone the ancestral inheritance of the Tang family, but was given by Tang Fuchang when he got married, not only Tang Fushou, but even Tang Fukang's house was also given by Tang Fuchang.
Because of his old mother's deathbed instructions, although Tang Fuchang was troubled by the ignorance of his two younger brothers, he did not let them be wronged at the beginning in terms of material.
All the items prepared by Tang Fuchang for the two of them to get married, bride price, house, banquet, as an eldest son, Tang Fuchang has already done it, therefore, for so many years, although Tang Fukang and Tang Fushou do not seek progress, they still dare not go against their eldest brother.
The reason is very simple, one is that Tang Fuchang has the most net worth of the three, and the other is what a big brother should do, he has done his best, Tang Fukang and Tang Fushou will know what kind of accusation they will face as soon as they say something ruthless and unjust, so the two of them have not been too presumptuous all these years.
Pushing open the courtyard door, the tenant greeted him, Tang Fushou walked in with a straight face, and came to the courtyard gate in the middle.
Although their family is not big, the room in the front yard is still rented to five families, and the monthly rent must be at least one or two pieces of silver, for a family, even if no one goes out to earn money, it is enough to feed and wear.
But their family is more special, Tang Fushou is a good gambler, his wife Meng is from a scholarly family, a talented daughter, literate and hyphenated since childhood, after marrying Tang Fushou, it has also lived an enviable life, but now it seems that it was really lard that blinded his heart, and was deceived by Tang Fushou's rhetoric, so that he could hardly save money every month, and he had to save money.
Tang Fushou walked in the door slowly, only to feel that his heart was open.
When his wife Meng saw him like this, she was angry, but when the child was in front of her, she paid the most attention to the cultivation of her son, so she endured it, but she was full of breath in her heart, so she waited for the evening to teach Tang Fushou a good lesson.
Under the locust tree in the backyard, Meng sat on a stone bench and taught her eight-year-old son to read and write, her eldest son was very smart, and at the age of thirteen he was already a top student in the private school.
Meng Shi was overjoyed, her father was Xiucai, so she knew how rare it was to have a scholar in a family, not only to be beautiful, but also to bring practical benefits to the family.
Her father Meng Xiucai also said that her eldest son Tang Guisheng is really talented, so he will definitely rise to the top.
"You're going to the casino again today!" Meng Shi stood up, walked up to Tang Fushou, and whispered.
