Yang Ruoqing looked up at the man beside her, feeling as if a bird had found a strong reliance on a big tree.
This feeling made her feel like she had transformed from a beggar with nothing in her previous life to a king with unparalleled wealth!
Of course, the word "little bird" is a metaphor for her current state and mood.
And the real her is not just a little bird sitting on a big tree, she can be.
But if she shakes her wings, she can also be an eagle soaring in the nine heavens. She has her own sharp claws and iron wings...
"Tangyaozi, have a sip of tea."
Yang Ruoqing put her tea bowl in his hand and motioned for him to sit down and adjust his mood.
Luo Fengtang took the tea bowl handed over by Yang Ruoqing and sat back.
As for Yang Ruoqing, she turned around and her eyes fell directly on Lao Yangtou and Tan.
"Master, grandma, let's continue the topic we talked about before about Brother Fu."
"First of all, I want to clearly state my attitude,"
"I very much approve of Brother Youfu going to Yizhuang, the county town, with our Lao Yang family, and I approve of him accompanying and taking care of Zhen'er."
"As for the Zhen'er you mentioned, he is my eldest brother's biological son. He is close to me by blood, so I won't be afraid."
"Then let me ask you, since Zhen'er was born, has your eldest brother spent more than two months with him?"
As soon as Yang Ruoqing said this, everyone in the room was thinking about it and making calculations.
Then, they all shook their heads.
Not long after Liao Meiying gave birth to her child, Yang Yongxian went to Changhuaizhou to take the triennial imperial examination.
Go there one or two months in advance to prepare, find a house to rent, and spend money on everything.
By the time he finished the exam, he would have lost his reputation and become friendly with the daughter of a relative of his landlord.
Seeing that the family's conditions were good, she was an only daughter, and she had land and shops in Changhuaizhou. Yang Yongxian concealed the fact that he had married a wife and had children in his hometown, and married into the woman's family there...
Later, the Dongchuang incident happened and Lao Yang's family found him. From then on, he started to break things.
Instead of reflecting on himself, he attributed his reputation and depression to other people's faults.
He has all kinds of cynicism and hostility towards Lao Yang's family. As for Liao Meiying and her son, in his eyes, they are even more stumbling blocks on the way forward, and he can't wait to kick them away...
Later he went to Huguang County and Baie Town and started to work on his business.
Not to mention the authenticity of his business outside to make money, just that in his hometown, he and Liao Meiying were getting farther and farther apart. As for his biological son Zhen'er, I'm sorry, he almost never visited her.
So before Liao Meiying remarried, she talked about Yang Yongxian to Yang Ruoqing and Sun Shi. Liao Meiying even cried at that time.
"... Zhen'er has a father, which is equivalent to not having a father. He is almost six years old now. Yang Yongxian has never held the child once. The last time he saw the child was when the child was two years old... I am afraid that even if Yang Yongxian stands in front of the child now, the child I don’t even know who he is…”
Yang Ruoqing saw everyone's reaction and knew that everyone had recalled everything that happened to Yang Yongxian during his lifetime, and they all understood what Yang Ruoqing wanted to express.
So, he said to Old Yangtou in a serious and thoughtful voice: "Sir, Zhen'er used to support eldest brother in the past just to repay eldest brother's blood love. As for the other nurturing, teaching, companionship and protection, eldest brother has done everything. He was not given to Zhen'er. To Zhen'er, the eldest brother is not as familiar as a random uncle in the village."
"So, we should let Brother Youfu go and take care of Zhen'er so that Zhen'er won't be afraid."
"If Zhen'er was frightened, who will be responsible if she is frightened again? You?"
Yang Ruoqing's words directly put Lao Yangtou into a trap.
Taking advantage of the old Yang's silence, Yang Huaming directly followed Yang Ruoqing's words and said: "If you ask me, Yongxian is not worthy of being Zhen'er's father at all. This time Zhen'er was able to go over to help him, it is entirely because of Liao Meiying's virtuousness, Zhang Blessed and generous!”
Yang Yongjin rested for a few days, and his physical and mental conditions also recovered a lot. Regarding this matter, as Yang Yongxian’s younger brother and Zhen’er’s second uncle, Yang Yongjin said this: “At this point, Sister-in-law Meiying did There is indeed nothing wrong with him, and Zhang Youfu is also very generous. As for whether Zhang Youfu will humiliate my elder brother in the past, haha, I just want to ask, is he worthy?"
Yang Yongqing sat in the corner, a little absent-minded.
Hearing everyone's speech, he plucked his ears and said with disdain: "If I weren't afraid of being scolded by my grandma and afraid that my mother would be sad, I wouldn't want to bother my eldest brother with these things."
"If he grows old, gets sick, and dies normally, I would be willing to wear sackcloth to express mourning for him. I would also be happy for my two children to wear sackcloth to express mourning for their uncle."
"But his condition is so embarrassing..."
"Yongqing, let's not bring up the old things. Let's discuss the matter." Yang Huazhou coughed lightly and stopped Yang Yongqing from talking.
If he was allowed to continue talking about this, it might extend into a crusade against Yang Yongxian's crimes.
Yang Yongqing still gave Yang Huazhou, his fifth uncle, a lot of face, so he stopped the topic at the moment.
However, he still had to continue to express what he meant, so he said loudly to Zhang Youfu: "If you are asked to accompany Zhen'er, you go. If someone insists on letting you accompany Zhen'er, don't go, and don't Let Zhen'er go, what are you going to do? It's boring!"
Anyone with ears can tell who the 'someone' in Yang Yongqing's words refers to.
Besides Lao Yangtou and Tan, who else could be there?
So at the moment, everyone had different expressions, and Lao Yangtou and Tan had even longer expressions.
But they will not take Yang Yongqing's remarks seriously, because in their eyes, they have never felt that Yang Yongqing is such a serious person, and naturally they cannot say anything serious.
The translation is that the old man and the old lady look down on Yang Yongqing, their grandson, and think he has no future!
"Okay, okay, don't point your guns at me overtly or covertly, making it seem like this old man like me is the biggest villain in the world!"
Old Yangtou changed his tone, picked up the tobacco stick on the table, and took two puffs.
"Then it's settled. We'll leave early tomorrow morning. You're lucky. Then Zhen'er will be left to you. You stay with him and teach him more about what he doesn't understand. That child is now As soon as I get close to you, he will listen to what you say, but he may not even listen to what we say, hey!"
Another long, heavy sigh marked Lao Yangtou's concession.
Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhang Youfu nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Zhen'er and let him fulfill his duty as a filial son and support the spirit."
The matter has come to an end here.
Everyone goes back to rest, because we have to get up early tomorrow.
At that time, Lao Yang's family and the men who have invited relatives and friends to come over will be divided into two groups.
One group went to Yizhuang, the county seat, to pick up Yang Yongxian and return him to the village.
The other group stayed in the village to pick up the deceased and built a temporary mourning hall at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
Yang Huazhong and the others were Yang Yongxian's elders and it was not convenient to go, so they stayed in the village to pick him up.
Yang Yongjin's three brothers, Yang Yongbai, Daan, Dabao, Kang Xiaozi, Tiedan, Luo Fengtang, Ye Yi, Chen Biao, brothers and brothers-in-law of the same generation as Yang Yongxian, all went to the county town to pick him up.
Among the children, only Zhen'er was there.
The division of labor is clear!
