Chapter 52: Tian Gui wants to build a brick house
Tian Wan hugged the books and went back, Tian Gui and his wife were at her house, Tian Biao saw her hugging so many books, surprised, "Yuan Yuan, where did you get so many books?"
"Tian Xuetang's brother lent it to me, it's his textbook from the first year of school, I thought nothing of bringing it back to take a look." Tianyuan said, and then returned to her own room, putting the book away properly before going over to the adults again. She seemed to have heard Tianmaochun say something about fortune-telling earlier.
Seeing Tian Wei coming over, Zhao Qiu Xiang glanced at Tian Wei and said, "You're just in the fourth grade. The teacher praised you today and made you deputy class leader. You think you can jump levels and read junior high school books? Can you even understand them? Don't mess up your older cousin's books, or you'll have to pay for it."
"Yuan Yuan is happy to watch, it's a good thing, whether she understands or not is another matter. If she doesn't understand, when her older cousin comes back, you can just ask him." Tian Mu Chun didn't think so, he patted Tian Yuan's head and smiled, "I think my granddaughter Tian Yuan is the most capable, her cleverness is almost catching up with Sun Wukong!"
"Yuan Yuan, in my opinion, it's better to be down-to-earth. First, finish reading and mastering your current books, the ones for junior high school. When you advance to higher grades, you'll naturally learn more." Tian Biao reminded her with emphasis and concern.
"Alright, Dad. I just heard you guys talking about fortune-telling? What's going on?" Tian Yuan nodded in response and sat down beside Li Shufen.
"Your grandfather said, take my eight characters and your third uncle's eight characters, give them to the old people in your aunt's village to calculate, see if they match. If it works, your grandfather said, adopt me half to your third uncle's place, at that time, dad will be three uncle's half-son, three uncle will be your half-grandfather." Tian Biao smiled and said, "If it can be done, you, Lu Lu, and Jia Bao will have one more grandfather to pamper you in the future."
"That's great! I think Dad is a wealthy and noble person, he will definitely make it!" Tianyuan naturally had no objection, she didn't believe in what "husband-killing wife" or "child-killing child", San Shu Gong was also a pitiful person. Er Nainai's youngest son was born weak and sickly, in the early years, the family was even poorer than now, they only had two meals a day, if the child got sick, it was dangerous, it was due to the backward conditions at that time, what did San Shu Gong have to do with it?
"What's good about it, Third Uncle is still able to get out of bed and do some work by himself now. When he gets even older, all he'll be able to do is open his mouth to eat." Zhao Qiuxiang cut in, "When people get old, they get sick a lot. Who knows if those three thousand yuan will be enough for him to live on and pay for medical expenses in the future?"
It's a good thing Tian Mu Xing isn't here, if he were, Zhao Qiu Xiang's words would truly be enough to hurt an old man's heart.
After finishing, Zhao Qiuxiang poked Tian Gui's arm and looked at Tian Maohua, saying, "Dad, just now Tian Gui told me that he is going to work on a construction site in the county town with several people from our village. He can earn more than three yuan per day, and if he works hard and puts in extra hours, some people can even earn one or two hundred yuan per month, including food and accommodation."
"No matter how much or little money, moving bricks is safer than going to dig coal. As long as you're willing to work hard, even if you earn less, it's still better than staying at home." Tian Ma Chun nodded in relief, he was worried that his second brother would be lazy and not make any money, and the old lady would favor him, giving him all the money she had, which would only make him lazier.
