Chapter 15: The Dirty Things That Came from the Rocking Chair

"Zhao Chen, what are you chewing on the root of your tongue behind your back?"

"Who chews the root of the tongue? Who chewed the root of the tongue? ”

"Didn't you say behind your back that we only gave rocking chairs to the old gentleman, not to my father, saying that we had no filial piety?"

"Do you need me to say that? What you did yourself, the people in the village saw it, and they said so, how can you rely on me? ”

"Fuck your shit! You think I don't know? People in the village say that my family knows how to be grateful, but you told them that my family has no filial piety, and they told me! ”

"Who? Who made the rumor of the old lady? You tell me, I tear her mouth apart! ”

The scolding came from the courtyard of the old Zhao family, and Zhao Yu understood what was going on as soon as he heard it.

It's just that this thing is too, they just sent a chair to thank the old gentleman, and it was processed like this.

Seeing that Zhao Yongzhuo also hurriedly walked into the old mansion at this time, Zhao Yu hurriedly followed.

In the courtyard of the old house.

At this time, it is still the same as the quarrel of the past.

Hu and Chen stood in the middle and scolded each other.

The three brothers of the Zhao family persuaded there.

Old man Zhao sat on his threshold smoking a dry cigarette, stretched his face to the side, and did not look at the noisy scene in the courtyard, next to him sat Zhao Li.

When Zhao Yu walked into the courtyard, Chen didn't seem to be able to hold it anymore, and broke the jar and said:

"What you did yourself, and you don't let people talk about it? My father and mother are still there, your family gives others good things, but you don't send them to your father, isn't it unfilial? ”

After that, without waiting for Hu to return the favor, Chen looked at Zhao Li on the threshold and said angrily:

"Mother! You are here to judge, isn't that the truth? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Li slowly stood up, holding a parental posture, and after glancing at Hu Shi, he looked at Zhao Yongzhuo sternly and reprimanded:

"Second child, I have to say a word to my mother about this matter! Although the old gentleman deserves respect, he is an outsider after all, and you still have a father! You give things to outsiders, but you forget your father, what do you let the people in the village think of your father? ”

"This ......"

Zhao Yongzhuo was suddenly embarrassed, and his face turned red for a while.

But Hu Shi stopped doing it, and said angrily to Zhao Li:

"Mother! That's not the way it is! We sent a rocking chair to the old gentleman because the old gentleman taught Yu'er a lot of words, and we thank him, the rocking chair is equivalent to a bundle! ”

"Humph! According to what you mean, the old gentleman taught Yu'er, but your father didn't teach him? ”

Zhao Li squinted at Hu.

"Teach, teach, grandpa taught me!"

At this time, without waiting for Hu Shi to speak, Zhao Yu immediately ran to her, snapped his fingers and said:

"The old gentleman taught me how to read words! Grandpa taught us brothers to be harmonious and not to worry about stealing irrigation water from each other! It's all taught, we should make a rocking chair for grandpa too! Dad, let's go back and do it now, shall we? ”

Saying that, Zhao Yu looked at Zhao Yongzhuo with an innocent face.

But Zhao Yutong's words were unscrupulous, but many people here felt as disgusting as eating flies, and Old Man Zhao was even more angry.

"Ahem......"

On the threshold, Old Man Zhao choked on the dry smoke and coughed violently.

One teaches reading and literacy, the other teaches 'stealing', making judgments, comparing with each other, the damage is not too great!

But Zhao Yu is a child, what does he know?

What can people say about that innocent look?

"Knock knock!"

Old man Zhao knocked heavily on the threshold with his pipe, and after knocking out the ashes inside, he stretched his face and walked into the inner room angrily.

He didn't say a word, and he didn't look at everyone outside.

Zhao Li retracted his gaze from the inner room, and after glancing at Zhao Yu, he scolded Hu Shi:

"The second one, how do you teach the juniors? How can that be said? ”

"Mother, you have wronged your daughter-in-law! The last time my father reprimanded his daughter-in-law, you heard it there! These words were all said by his father, Yu'er is young, he can't tell right from wrong, he keeps his father's reprimand in mind, what's wrong? ”

Hu Shi was happy in his heart, but his face was aggrieved and miserable.

That look, seeing Chen's gritted teeth, and Zhao Yonglin and Zhao Yongliang also had complicated eyes.

Zhao Li was speechless, shook his head, and walked into the inner room without saying a word.

"Let's go! Let's go home and make a rocking chair for Dad! ”

Seeing this, Hu Shi pulled Zhao Yongzhuo and Zhao Yu away, his head held high, like a winning rooster.

Even because he was very satisfied with Zhao Yu's performance, Hu hugged Zhao Yu tightly, and the baby was very good.

A family of three strutted forward, leaving only a silence behind them.

Back home.

Hu Shizhen urged Zhao Yongzhuo to hurry up and make a rocking chair, and even helped himself.

Zhao Yu did the same as last time, burning the stone trough to soften the wood.

A family of three working together.

The next morning, another rocking chair was made.

Zhao Yongzhuo did not delay, and went to the old mansion with a rocking chair.

It's just that when he came back, Zhao Yongzhuo carried the rocking chair back, and the rocking chair was broken by a leg.

"What's going on? No? ”

In the courtyard, watching Zhao Yongzhuo put the rocking chair in the shade of the tree, Hu stepped forward suspiciously.

And Zhao Yu, who practiced calligraphy on the ground, also looked at Zhao Yongzhuo.

Zhao Yongzhuo didn't speak, just said 'um', lowered his head and began to repair the broken leg of the rocking chair.

Hu Shi kicked the rocking chair, squinted his eyes and said:

"Who fell this? Old family, or dad? ”

Zhao Yongzhuo didn't even make a sound this time, just repaired the rocking chair.

Seeing this, Hu Shi did not force the question, but suddenly sneered:

"Humph! He said the words, he did the things, and finally poured his anger on us! Don't just do it, we take it ourselves and sell it for money! ”

The voice fell, and Hu Shi turned around and walked into the room.

Zhao Yu also lowered his head again and continued to practice calligraphy.

Everything is calm again.

In the following time, Zhao Yongzhuo put down the woven bamboo products and devoted himself to making rocking chairs.

It took four days for Zhao Yongzhuo to make two more.

Coupled with the one that broke his leg before, Zhao Yu's family has three rocking chairs.

On the fifth day, someone in Zhaojiagou happened to be going to Changning County, and Zhao Yongzhuo immediately planned to go with them, preparing to sell the finished rocking chairs.

As the inventor of the rocking chair, Zhao Yu naturally followed.

However, the rocking chair was large, and Zhao Yongzhuo couldn't bring three, so in the end he only brought two, leaving one at home.

Thereupon.

In the faint morning light, Zhao Yu carried a fashionable small satchel containing rice balls, and Zhao Yongzhuo carried two rocking chairs and walked down the mountain full of hope.
