Fortunately, the mother-in-law came over with a large bowl of noodles to help. She tried to smooth things over and said, "Okay, okay, it's not a big deal. Let's just turn it over together after dinner. The sun has just come out anyway, so I'm in a hurry."

What are you doing to change the situation?"

Old Monster Yang still wanted to speak, but his mother-in-law retorted: "I can't even stop your mouth while eating."

"Come on, come on, eat first. Only when you are full can you work hard." The mother-in-law put a pot of noodles next to the wheat field. This is how everyone eats during busy farming days.

The eldest sister, Yang Yulan, was busy beside her. She picked up the noodles with chopsticks and put them into the bowl. She handed them to her father first.

Wang Yonggui, who was turning wheat straw, looked up and didn't hear his father-in-law calling him to eat, so he could only continue to work with his head down.

Yang Yulan filled another bowl and handed it to Zhang Guoquan: "Eat quickly, eat first and then work."

Zhang Guoquan was really hungry. He thanked him and was about to pick up a bag of noodles and put it into his mouth.

Unexpectedly, after Old Monster Yang took a mouthful of noodles, he began to mutter again: "I know how to eat every day. You see how sensible my eldest son-in-law is. He is a good worker. If it were me, I would have no shame in eating."

Listening to the weird voice of Old Monster Yang, Zhang Guoquan spit out the noodles he had just put into his mouth, put down the bowl, picked up the wooden fork and walked towards the threshing field.

Bai Ge shouted uncomfortably: "Guoquan..."

Even the mother-in-law couldn't stand it anymore and shouted to Zhang Guoquan's back: "Guoquan, eat first."

Zhang Guoquan didn't even look back: "I'm not hungry yet."

"You bad old man, you just eat when you eat. Why are you talking nonsense there? How can you work hard if you don't eat?"

Old Monster Yang ignored the old woman's complaints and kept slurping his noodles. He had a good way of training animals. Now that Guoquan had just become his son-in-law, it was a good time to train him.

Zhang Guoquan walked to his brother-in-law and began to finish the unfinished farm work yesterday with him.

Wang Yonggui didn't even raise his head, and Zhang Guoquan said feeling quite guilty: "Brother-in-law, why don't you go eat first, and I'll do the work for you."

"No, no, I'm not hungry either."

Wang Yonggui was really a good son-in-law who worked hard and never complained. Zhang Guoquan had a wry smile on his face: "I'm sorry, brother-in-law, for dragging you into working with me."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not tired either."

The brother-in-law was very capable, to be more precise, he had to do it. As he was also the son-in-law who came to the door, Zhang Guoquan actually felt a sense of sympathy for his brother-in-law.

Bai Ge's father, Mr. Yang, because of his courage, started speculating in the early years. He made a lot of money and was caught and fined, but compared with the money he saved, it was nothing.

It was finally opened up and people were allowed to set up stalls and do business, but Old Monster Yang suddenly stopped. He suddenly figured out something. There were only two daughters and no sons in the family, so what's the use of making more money.

It’s not like there’s no one to provide for him in the future, so he took advantage of the little money he had now to hire a son-in-law.

Anyway, families in rural areas were generally poor at that time, and there were not a few families with sons. As long as they had some money, it was easy to recruit a son-in-law. Fortunately, the eldest daughter was able to quickly recruit a son-in-law who could not take the blame for the family.

After getting along with him for a while, he fell in love with this dark and fat eldest son-in-law even more, because he was honest and honest, and he would be asked to do all the work on weekdays, and all the dirty and tiring work was thrown to him without any complaints.

Looking at the second girl who was paralyzed in bed, Old Monster Yang felt a little uncomfortable. Let alone the two elders returning to the West a hundred years later, who would take care of such a paralyzed second girl in bed? For now, although the two elders take care of him,

After taking care of me for a long time, I felt like it was a burden.

The second girl is very good-looking. If she is good, she will definitely marry into a good family. But it is a pity that she is a paralytic. In the end, the two elders and the first girl combined their hearts and decided that instead of pushing this burden away, it is better to spend some money to recruit a son-in-law.

Since he already has someone to take care of the second girl, he can also pick up a son-in-law who will come to their house to provide for their two elders until they die.

They asked the matchmaker to find him after all, and they actually found him. This made the two elders so happy that they not only found a son-in-law, but they were also very talented and tall.

He is definitely a good worker. The second elder calls his ancestors to appear and bless him. At the same time, he also wants to train his second son-in-law to be an obedient son-in-law like the eldest son-in-law, who can come and go as soon as he is called.

Despite this, the eldest son-in-law worked so hard, but he still didn't get a trace of respect in front of Old Monster Yang.

At this moment, Zhang Guoquan, who was working, had an idea in his mind - splitting up the family. Only by splitting up the family could he live a good life of his own. Only by splitting up the family could he not live in the shadow of his father-in-law all day long and let him

There is no dignity at all in being manipulated.

It's just that the idea of ​​dividing the family is a big taboo of Mr. Yang. No one in the village knows that he spent so much money to recruit a son-in-law just to recruit two coolies.

For Mr. Yang, splitting up the family would be like losing his wife and losing his troops. He would definitely not agree to it.

Let’s not talk about whether Old Monster Yang will agree to it, but his wife Bai Ge, who has only been with him for two months, probably won’t agree to the separation.

Separating the family means that in the future, she can only support herself and can no longer ask for food and drink from her parents. For Bai Ge, a woman with paralyzed legs, separation will mean that she will lose the support of her parents and her life will be extremely uncomfortable.

convenient.

Considering his wife's emotions, the idea of ​​separating the family just flashed in Zhang Guoquan's mind. This matter cannot be rushed. He must first do his wife's ideological work.

He had to consider his wife's feelings, because since he had stepped in, there was no reason to go back.

What's more, his wife Bai Ge is indeed very good-looking, indescribably soft and delicate, but it's just a pity...

However, if the girl was a good girl, how could it be the turn of a poor boy like him.

Zhang Guoquan had two older brothers who had already married wives and started families. But by the time he arrived, the family had been completely depleted and my mother really could not afford to buy him a wife.

There is also a younger brother below, who is about to reach the age of marrying a wife. Later, I heard the matchmaker introduced a son-in-law who would be a door-to-door son-in-law, and he would get a sum of money.

Zhang Guoquan was so cruel that in order not to drag down the family and for his younger brother to get a wife in the future, he simply came to Yangjiazhuang and became a door-to-door son-in-law.

Although the two months here have been difficult and tiring, at least Bai Ge is sincere to him, and Zhang Guoquan is satisfied.

There was only a little bit of wheat straw left, but with the cooperation of the two of them, it was completed in a short time.

Yang Yulan shouted for the two of them to hurry up and eat. Wang Yonggui ran over in a hurry, leaving Zhang Guoquan unmoved.

Yang Yulan looked a little funny, he was really a stubborn donkey, but she liked his character.

For Zhang Guoquan, Yang Yulan saw it in her eyes and liked it in her heart. Such a young and handsome man was so tall and tall. Compared with her short and fat husband, how could she not have strange thoughts in her heart.

It's a pity that such a handsome man was picked up by the second sister who was lying on the bed. It's really annoying that people are more popular than others. I don't know what kind of shit luck this second sister has got.

The white pigeon next to her took the bowl from the eldest sister's hand, and pushed the wheelchair with one hand towards the wheat field slowly.

Zhang Guoquan knew that it was inconvenient for her, and the wheat straw that had just been spread out in the wheat field was piled high, so he hurried over.

"Eat something. You have to work during the day. If you don't eat, your body won't be able to handle it."

Zhang Guoquan said nothing more, took the bowl and ate it with big mouthfuls. The meal was not very tasty. He could only taste his wife's concern for him and his father-in-law's provocation to his dignity. These two flavors were mixed together.

, it’s really not delicious.

After finishing the meal, he continued working without stopping.

The father-in-law put the traction rope on the stone roller on the back of the cattle and drove the cattle around in circles on the threshing field.

The eldest son-in-law's job is to pick up the crushed wheat ears and shake them loose.

Zhang Guoquan was doing all this work yesterday, but I don't know what happened today, but Old Monster Yang assigned him another task, which was to follow the old scalper with a dung bag, waiting to catch the excrement from the old scalper's steak.

Because there are mountains of wheat straw in the wheat field, it would be difficult to clean up if the old scalpers pull them in. This is originally an ordinary task.

But everyone knew that Old Monster Yang was deliberately trying to embarrass him. Compared with the hard work, this kind of task of holding a dung bag and waiting to pick up excrement made Zhang Guoquan feel quite uncomfortable.
