Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

"grandmother?"

Hearing what Jia Zhang said, Bang Geng was stunned. "How could you do this? Didn't you agree that the job in our family would be given to me?"

cough cough.

Hearing this, Jia Zhang said awkwardly, "Great! It's not that grandma doesn't want to give you the job, I just think you are too young now, and there are many things you can't grasp. Let's talk about it in a few years!"

"Ah, I hate you guys!"

Banggeng said this and ran out feeling aggrieved.

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes.

What you can't control is nothing more than the money for your pension and painkillers.

As long as Bang Geng agreed to give these two things, Jia Zhang would definitely nod and agree without hesitation.

But this is exactly what Qin Huairu wanted.

Although she also loves her son, she still has to support a large family after all.

If I lose my job, what will happen to my whole family?

Pointing at Shazhu’s salary?

What would their family do if Sha Zhu changed his mind one day?

Just live on your savings?

How long can it last?

Well, thinking about it, my savings seem to be quite a lot, as if it is enough for her family to live for many years.

But the job still cannot be given to him. Jia Zhang is right. Banggeng is still young and cannot grasp many things.

For the sake of the whole family, I have no choice but to endure the hardship.

Ugh!

Qin Huairu sighed in her heart.

It's just a few years in the countryside, it should be fine.

At worst, I can compensate him later.

after awhile.

Jia Zhang was worried: "It's so cold, he ran out like this, will he be okay?"

"It's okay, he will be back by himself in a while."

Qin Huairu said nonchalantly.

...

evening.

Cao Liang and his family of three went to the main house to eat.

As soon as she entered the room, Chen Huilan said, "I was just about to call you, and you came over."

“As the saying goes, if you’re not active when eating, there’s something wrong with your brain.”

Cao Liang gave Dabao to Meng Xiaoxing, and then he saw Yaya puffing up her cheeks, as if she was sulking.

Cao Liang slapped Xiao Ming on the back of his head and said, "Xiao Ming, did you make Ya Ya angry again?"

Xiao Ming said innocently: "Brother, I just woke up, how did I offend her?"

Fortunately, he has become accustomed to this different treatment, otherwise he would cry to death.

Who did he provoke?

He drank at his master's house until midnight last night.

I slept until this afternoon after I came back.

I didn't expect that I would be slapped by my elder brother just after I woke up, and the key point was that it had nothing to do with him. It was really...

Seeing that he had hit the wrong person, Cao Liang had no intention of apologizing.

After all, this is the love of the eldest brother for his younger brother.

Chen Huilan brought the dishes to the table and snorted, "Isn't it about going to the countryside? This girl just made a fuss about going to the countryside again, so I said a few more words to her."

"Humph! I did nothing wrong. I am contributing to the country. Is that wrong?"

Yaya said unconvinced.

Chen Huilan was suddenly speechless. She naturally didn't dare to say that what she said was wrong.

She had no choice but to vent her anger on Cao Liang. She glared at him and said, "Boss, this is caused by your spoiling. You should handle it yourself."

After saying that, he took Dabao from Meng Xiaoxing's arms and started feeding him.

Cao Liang chuckled and looked at Yaya. "Yaya, as the saying goes, we are all bricks of the country, and we can be moved wherever we are needed. Isn't that right?"

Yaya nodded in agreement, "So, I want to go to the countryside."

Cao Liang was suddenly confused.

He was speechless and said, "What I mean is that no matter where you work, it is for the construction of the country. You have to understand that work is not limited to any place or to any position. You can still contribute to the country by staying in Beijing to work."

"That's different."

"What's the difference?"

Yaya couldn't explain it.

Cao Liang sighed secretly.

He was also very worried about his sister.

Does this girl really think it is so easy to go to the countryside?

Others might not know, but how could Cao Liang not know?

It’s just like the three difficult years back then, when people in the countryside couldn’t even get enough to eat.

Not to mention the Northwest.

It seems that I protected her too well.

For some things, she needs to experience them herself before she knows how difficult they are.

So Cao Liang said, "Yaya, if you want to go to the countryside, that's fine."

"Really?"

Yaya's eyes lit up and she looked at her elder brother expectantly.

Chen Huilan frowned, and suddenly looked a little dissatisfied.

In fact, she doesn't have any requirements. She just hopes that her children can live a peaceful life and that will make her satisfied.

But going to the countryside is definitely not allowed, everything else is easy.

But she knew that Cao Liang loved his sister the most and would not let her suffer in the countryside, so she did not say anything.

"Of course it's true."

Cao Liang nodded, then changed the subject, "I already said yesterday that you can go to the countryside if you want, but you have to fulfill one of my requests."

"any request?"

Yaya asked hurriedly.

Cao Liang smiled faintly and said, "My request is very simple, that is, you go back to your hometown to live for half a month. If you can take good care of yourself, I will agree to let you go to the countryside."

"Isn't that easy?"

Yaya said confidently: "It's not like I haven't lived in my hometown before."

Since they were young, she and Xiao Ming would go back to their hometown to play for a while every time they had a holiday.

How can this be considered a request?

She didn't take it seriously at all.

Seeing this, Cao Liang guessed that Yaya had misunderstood.

He reminded her: "Yaya, don't be too happy too soon. The reason I asked you to go back to the countryside is to see if you have the ability to live independently."

"So, this time when you go back, your grandparents and your second uncle and second aunt won't help you with anything, and you can't live with them. You have to rely on your own labor for food and drink."

"Humph! I can definitely do it."

Yaya said confidently.

"Okay, then I'll take you back home tomorrow."

Cao Liang had a meaningful look on his face.

Seeing how confident the girl is now, I guess she will start complaining soon.

Chen Huilan and Meng Xiaoxing felt relieved after hearing Cao Liang's arrangements.

Other people may not know the hardships of life in the countryside, but how could Chen Huilan not know?

For example, if Cao Dashan had not distributed food to the Chen family, everyone in her family would have starved to death.

Moreover, she also came from the countryside and knew the hardships there.

How could Yaya, who has been spoiled since childhood, endure such hardship?

I guess he will ask to come back in a few days.

But it’s better this way. After what happened this time, this girl shouldn’t act like that again.

Meng Xiaoxing is similar.

There was a natural disaster in her hometown and all her relatives were gone.

She fled a long way to Sijiu City alone to escape famine.

Later, she relied on handicrafts to support her two children, Monkey and Xiaotao.

She naturally knew how hard life was, so even though her family was well off now, she was still very frugal.

"Brother, you can't go back on your word!"

Yaya reminded excitedly.

She was afraid that Cao Liang would go back on his word.

After all, Cao Liang has the final say in this family.

As long as Cao Liang doesn't agree, there's no point in her resisting.

Cao Liang nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, when has Big Brother ever lied to you?"
