Chapter 149: Comforting Parents and Prospering the Family

"Brother!" Yu Hongdou stamped her feet in anger, raised her fist and chased him. The little girl is talking, why are you interrupting her?

"Hahaha~" Yu Song ran away with a laugh. Wangwang looked at his owner, rushed forward, bit Yu Song's trouser leg and dragged him back.

"Oh~ You little guy is quite good at reading people's expressions." Yu Song pulled his legs, bent down, grabbed Wangwang and rushed forward together.

"Third brother, what does Xiaosong mean by this?" While the brother and sister were laughing, Sun was the first to react, but she was a little hesitant to believe it.

"Brother and sister-in-law, the county magistrate recommended me an official position as county lieutenant. I came back this time to tell my parents the good news." Yu Sanlang was proud and embarrassed.

“Really?!” Yu Erlang and Sun spoke at the same time, and their voices were so loud that the brother and sister who were chasing in front stopped.

Yu Sanlang nodded, and Xu and his sister-in-law also nodded affirmatively. This matter could not be concealed and there was no need to conceal it.

After entering the gate of the old house, Yu Erlang, who was usually taciturn, interrupted and told about his younger brother's official position.

Old Master Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly slapped his thigh and cheered: "Good! Good! I, Yu Panshi, have not lived my life in vain!"

Yu Hongdou felt a little sad when she saw the old man who had suddenly become old and had a head full of white hair after just one month of not seeing him. It must be hard for the old man to worry about his children and grandchildren at such an old age.

Yu Sanlang also felt sorry for his father, he knew that his father was really sad.

Although the family was in disharmony and the brothers were at odds because of the eldest brother and his wife, they had the intention but not the courage to do anything bad and could not cause any big trouble. The old man at most hated them for not living up to their expectations.

But this time, Ginkgo used a self-torture trick on her cousin by not saving her, and also stirred up the affair between Ma Laizi and the Ding family. Such viciousness broke the old man's bottom line and made the old man, who thought he was a kind and honest man, lose his mind.

Yu Sanlang glanced at the big room which had been silent since they entered and shook his head.

Different statuses lead to different attitudes towards things and people. Yu Sanlang feels that his family and the eldest brother's family are now two different people.

He will certainly not forget the past, but he now has greater ambitions and goals, and is unwilling to waste any more time and energy on the eldest brother's family, whose vision is only an inch long.

But he has to take care of his parents. To put it bluntly, even if he has a good relationship with the second wife, the only ones in the village who can affect him and cause him trouble are his parents.

To be realistic, he had to observe mourning for his parents who had passed away, and he had to resign from his newly acquired official position before he could even get comfortable with it.

"Dad, the pepper and ginger on the mountain are growing well, thanks to you, my second brother, and the village chief for taking care of them."

"Let me tell you something. As long as the crop grows well this year, our village may become a nationally famous production area. Then we will definitely receive rewards from the higher-ups."

Yu Sanlang was telling the truth. He had originally planned to take the lead and do a good job this year.

After reaping the first credit, he gave the job to his second brother and the village chief.

I hadn't thought about my father before, mainly because he is old and it is time for him to enjoy his retirement. I didn't expect this incident to happen and my father's spirit was broken.

"Another thing, a gold vein was discovered in the mountains near our village, and it is estimated that it will be mined in the second half of the year..." Yu Sanlang gave his father a meaningful look.

After all, Mr. Yu was a man who had experienced many ups and downs, so he immediately understood the situation. Wherever there were mines, there were people, and where there were people, there would be prosperity and bustle.

By then, the surrounding areas of the village will also prosper, and Taoyuan Village may even become Taoyuan Town.

In this way, even if the children in the family are not ambitious, as long as they stay at home and do some small business, they will not starve to death.

When the old man thought of this, he was not concerned about how his eldest son's family was living, but was thinking about his descendants for four or five generations.

He has been wandering for many years and finally settled down here. He has no other ambition but to hope that the Yu family can take root and grow into a big tree with luxuriant branches and leaves. This has been his obsession since he was a child.

If Yu Hongdou knew what the old man was thinking, she would definitely complain about it being old-fashioned.

But it is understandable. After all, the Qing Dynasty has been gone for so many years, and there are still many people who do all kinds of strange things in order to have sons and grandchildren.

"Dad, my eldest brother's family is small and helpless. The fourth brother and I are just starting out, so we can't afford to make any mistakes. You and mom will have to keep a close eye on us." Yu Sanlang added at the end.

If the previous sentence only stimulated the old man's competitive spirit, this sentence really set off the old couple.

Now even the old lady who had not interrupted the conversation nodded.

"Don't worry, third brother. Your father and I will keep them in the village. Even if anything happens, they won't be able to escape." The old lady put aside her jealousy towards her daughter-in-law Xu and patted her chest to make the promise.

With a common goal, the old man and the old lady are more energetic.

They asked a few questions about things on the farm and talked a few words about business in the city. The fact that the third wife had opened a shop in the city was not hidden from the old couple, but they didn't know how good the business was for the time being.

They agreed to have a family dinner together in the evening. Yu Sanlang took his second brother to the village chief's house, while Xu and Sun walked home slowly with Hongdou and Hutao.

Before leaving the hospital, Yu Hongdou glanced at the window of the main room and saw that the window was slightly open and a "Pooh" sound came from inside.

Yu Hongdou rolled her eyes slowly, with her eye sockets full of white. She recently felt that this behavior could relax her eyes and also add a lot of sarcasm.

"Teacher, let's go!" When Yu Hongdou returned home, she saw three fishing rods and two buckets sticking out in the shade at the door. She immediately and excitedly called the teacher to set off.

Wen Daozhi and Mo Shougui, who were sitting in the yard playing chess, couldn't help laughing when they saw their little disciple so excited. They didn't care about the half-finished chess game and stood up and set off.

"The water in Taoyuan Village is really good. The two springs face each other from north to south, and are surrounded by three mountains, like a dragon guarding a pearl. Great talents will surely emerge in the future." Wen Daozhi praised the springs as he passed by them.

I have seen a lot of landscape paintings and have some understanding of Feng Shui.

Mo Shougui didn't understand any of this. He just washed his hands and scooped up a handful of water to drink. He was impressed by the sweetness of the spring water and said it was good water.

Following the spring to the village entrance, Yu Hongdou was stopped several times by villagers she knew and didn't know. They asked about the identities of the two people next to her, where her family had been during this period, and why she just came back.

Yu Hongdou's polite but reserved answer not only failed to satisfy the villagers' curiosity, but made them even more upset.

So some people decided to go to the Yu family to test the waters, while the other group followed Yu Hongdou and his disciples towards the village entrance.

Two springs and several winding streams in the mountains converge at the entrance of the village, forming a huge lake. Taoxi Village is at the exit of the lake.

Of course, Yu Hongdou and his friends couldn't go that far when fishing, so when they arrived at the village entrance, they began to wander around the lake looking for a place to cast the hook. Now the villagers who had followed them came into play and began to talk a lot and give them advice.

Yu Hongdou raised her hand and looked out. A faint green light was floating not far from the water's edge, swaying with the waves. There were some large characters on it that seemed to be tempting her.
