Chapter 5912 Make a plan
Old Yangtou hasn't given Yu Xingkui a good look for two days.
Both inside and outside the words are sarcastic that Yu Xingkui is not a filial son. In such a hot day, he only cares about his own happiness and does not care about his mother's life and death. To a certain extent, he is the same as those unfilial sons of the third, fourth and fifth sons.
Yu Xingkui silently endured these sarcasm. It was not until Old Yangtou hinted that he wanted to find someone to serve him again, someone who was filial to serve him, that Yu Xingkui really started to panic.
"Old Uncle Yang, please tell me what I did wrong, and I will change it. I will definitely change it. I just ask you not to replace me..."
That day, at the lunch table, Yu Xingkui was peeling shrimp shells for Lao Yangtou while begging nicely.
Lao Yang took one bite at a time and ate the shrimps arrogantly. When Yu Xingkui finished speaking, he raised his eyelids and glanced at Yu Xingkui, "I used you before because I thought you were like a filial son, but now I realize that you are unfilial.
If a man doesn't do his best for his wife, how dare I expect him to do his best to take care of me?"
"Besides, in my eyes, anyone who is unfilial is no different from those brats in my family. When I see you, I think of them, and when I think of them, I get very angry, so you do
Let’s pack up and go back to Yujia Village by the end of this month, it will only take seven or eight days.”
Yu Xingkui's face turned pale, the shrimp shells in his hand fell to the table, he stood up and knelt down with a pop of his head in front of Old Yang.
"Old Uncle Yang, please don't send me away. I am a filial person and I will do my best to take care of you..."
Since I took this good job, I can earn three taels of silver a month, and I don’t have to pay for food and accommodation out of my own pocket.
I have just paid off many years of debts at home and started to save money. I have saved five taels of silver. The life of my family has also improved a bit. At least I am willing to eat the eggs laid by the chickens raised at home. I will not save as much as before.
Get up and exchange for soy sauce and salt.
Because I took this good job, my family's paddy fields and dry land were rented out to a family in the same village for farming. Because that family had taken care of my family in the past, the rent was very small, which is what I meant, mainly.
To repay the favor.
If you lose your job in Changping Village, you won't be able to continue farming when you go back. At least there won't be any land for you to plant this year. With the five taels of silver saved, will your family be left with nothing in the next six months?
Even if you calculate it carefully, five taels of silver is enough for the family to support the wheat warehouse next year and not starve to death.
However, because I got this good job in Changping Village before, many people in the village were envious and even jealous. If I lose it now...
Yu Xingkui didn't dare to think about it, so he lowered his head and kowtowed to Old Yang: "Old Uncle Yang, I am really filial, really filial. Please don't drive me away..."
Old Yangtou spit out a small piece of shrimp shell in his mouth and looked down at Yu Xingkui on the ground.
The old man was very satisfied with Yu Xingkui's reaction at this moment, and this reaction was also within his expectation.
It's like a person who is used to eating steamed buns, and suddenly one day he starts eating white-flour steamed buns and meat buns, and the next day he takes back the white-flour steamed buns and meat buns and lets him go back to his original state and continue eating steamed buns, 90% of that person will
It's unacceptable...
"Are you filial? Then why don't you take your mother over?" Old Yangtou asked slowly.
Yu Xingkui was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Old Yang. The old man was also looking at him, with persistence in his eyes.
Yu Xingkui finally figured out the real reason why he was disliked.
"Old Uncle Yang, it's not that I didn't pick him up, it's that my mother didn't come by herself. She said she was used to living at home..."
"Xingkui, look at my cat." Old Yangtou suddenly interrupted Yu Xingkui, pointed to the little white cat squatting at his feet and said, "This little thing used to live with my brother, and then he caught it.
After coming to my place, he was not used to it for the first two days. He kept barking day and night. After a few days, he realized that I was getting better with him, so he stopped barking."
"I have delicious food and drink here. If you try to drive it away, I'm afraid you won't be able to drive it away. Kitten, do you think I'm right?"
The old man asked the kitten amiably, then pinched a braised prawn and placed it in front of it.
The little white cat lowered his head and sniffed, then immediately opened his mouth to grab it and bite it, making a whining and swallowing sound...
Yu Xingkui stared blankly at the little white cat next to him. Is Old Yang trying to use the cat to talk about people?
It means that as long as you find a way to take your mother over, she won't be used to it at first, but she will gradually get used to it after a few days of living there?
However, he remembered what his mother said when he went back to pick him up last time.
"...There is no reason in the world for me, an old widow, to move under the roof of an old man like him. He is not afraid of being poked in the spine, but I am afraid of being laughed to death!"
"... Xingkui, let me tell you the truth. When your uncle passed away early and your grandma and I were desperate, your grandma almost arranged for me to be that old man's mistress. I was too young at that time.
I knew what to do, so I listened to your grandma's advice and went to his house in a daze, and almost got killed by Mrs. Tan."
"That old man is a thief with a treacherous heart and courage, but he can't bear it. Back then, he promised me this set of tricks, but when he turned his back, his mother-in-law, Tan Shi, took advantage of him. In order to get rid of me as a burden.
, he matched me up with your father. I don’t dislike your father. He is an honest man. Although he has no ability and has not cultivated to a long life, he at least gave me a family and helped me support your grandma.
I will retire and die. I will not go anywhere in this life. I will just stay in our home. I am already sixty-one years old. I will see your father in a few years. I can’t do anything wrong to him. You
Go help me reject that old man Yang!"
"Xingkui..."
A big hand was placed on his shoulder. Yu Xingkui swayed and suddenly came back to his senses. He found that he was still kneeling on the ground, and the hand on his shoulder was Lao Yangtou.
"Xingkui, as long as you think of a solution, your mother loves you so much and she can't help but think about you." Old Yang changed his previous disgust and contempt, returned to kindness, and said with sincerity.
"I know what your mother is worried about. Isn't it just other people's gossip? Oh, it would be boring if you lived in other people's eyes all your life. Others won't give you anything when you are in trouble. Human
Hey, you have to live for yourself, whatever makes you feel comfortable." The old man said again.
"Let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. I asked you to pick up your mother. I didn't mean any harm. When I was young, I owed your mother. This is a joke in my heart. Now, I want to make up for it. After all, I and I
Your uncle's friendship is there, your mother is my sister, and you, I really treat you as my nephew, otherwise I wouldn't be able to entrust you with such a good job."
Yu Xingkui frowned and listened, biting his lip.
Whatever he wanted to argue in his heart, the old man had already said it out loud. He had nothing to say except biting his lip.
