Farmhouse Chronicle [Farming]

Chapter 19

Mantou's name is Wan Yongping, and his family is a big landlord in Wanjiaba. Although he has two younger brothers in his family, and he is the younger brother, his father loves him the most. Regardless of Brother Mantou's status, he has always raised him as the heir to the family business. Whether it is the Wan family or outsiders, everyone knows that the Wan family has raised a noble brother. If he does not marry in the future, he will stay in Wan's family married a daughter-in-law to inherit the family business.

Mantou naturally knew the identity of Brother Yan from Mantou's mouth, but the two had been playing together since childhood, and Yan Qingyang was really kind to Mantou, he could be said to be the best person to him other than Mantou's family members, so Mantou has always treated Mantou well. Ignoring the identity of the other party, even though Yan Qingyang repeatedly asked, he still thought about meeting up with Dad quickly and going home.

Looking at Mantou's cheerful figure, Young Master Yan was depressed, thinking that he was thinking about how to persuade his father to agree to marry Mantou as his husband in the future, but this heartless little fat man didn't take himself at ease at all. ah!

When Yang Tianlin went back to the previous pharmacy, he was ready for the store to lower the price. Who would have thought that he took out something, and the old shopkeeper with the gray beard looked carefully and took out the 600 tael silver ticket for himself.

"What? The little baby is not satisfied? The old man didn't take advantage of you, and gave you enough price." Besides being the shopkeeper of this small pharmacy, the old shopkeeper is also an old doctor. This kind of medicinal material is a human-shaped The hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, if it is said to be more effective than ordinary Polygonum multiflorum, it is just a moral for those nobles to value these formed mountain objects, but because of this moral, I don’t know how many rich people in Beijing are looking for it.

Yang Tianlin wasn't satisfied, he just didn't expect it, he didn't expect the old shopkeeper to give him so much money, he didn't expect it at all.Because of the old shopkeeper's words, Yang Tianlin put away his surprise, and quickly thanked him, then looked at the bank note in his hand, and had to speak again.

"Shopkeeper, can you give me some broken silver and copper plates?" Holding six 100 taels of silver bills in his hand, he really didn't know how to use them. He must give the family money when he returns home today, but... .But he didn't want to give it to his stepmother, Yang Tianlin didn't want to give it to his stepmother for nothing that he earned so carefully.

Taking out a 100 tael silver note, Yang Tianlin handed it over to the shopkeeper. Now he is very relieved of this kind old shopkeeper, and also believes that this old shopkeeper will exchange it for silver.

Just by looking at this country boy's attire, the old shopkeeper knew that he must have no money on him. It is indeed dangerous for a child to hold so much money. Even if he doesn't give him a penny, what can a country boy do if he is bullied and took advantage of it?Thinking of this, the old shopkeeper exchanged the one hundred taels of silver bills for one fifty and two twenty bills, and gave the remaining ten taels some scattered silver and consistent copper coins.

"Hey, these scattered silver and copper coins are not more than ten taels, but I have done you a great favor today, and if you lose a few taels of silver from you, I will treat this old man to a drink." The old shopkeeper exchanged the money for Yang Tianlin. Show him the bank notes and coins one by one. Yang Tianlin was very grateful to the old shopkeeper, so naturally he didn't care about the few taels of silver left, and he would have a place to sell medicine with peace of mind in the future. The most important thing is that there are several plants of this kind on the top of the mountain.

"Grandpa, this is also for you to drink, but you are getting older, so you should drink less." Not only did Yang Tianlin not care about the few taels less, but he took a 20 taels of silver from his hand and went out.

The old shopkeeper Xu didn't expect this country boy's actions, he was startled for a moment, and then laughed.

"Haha, you are an interesting kid. You must be a child from a poor family, but how can you be so generous? What you gave was 20 taels of silver, not twenty copper coins." Don't say that 20 taels of silver is two Ten copper coins, the average farmer would be reluctant to give them away for nothing, but this kid is generous and interesting.

As if to explain to the old shopkeeper, Yang Tianlin smiled and said slowly: "Grandpa, let me tell you the truth, in fact, I have seen someone sell this thing to others before, and that time the elder brother's medicinal materials were as useless as mine. Two, but he sold it for 500 taels of silver. Today, grandpa gave me 600 taels directly, and he gave me an extra 100 taels. Grandpa, you are a good person. I will come to your store next time I encounter such a good medicinal material In addition to the 20 more taels given away, Yang Tianlin felt that he had earned dozens of taels more, so he felt that he had already earned a lot.

"Hahahaha, what a sincere doll, your 20-year-old husband accepts it, and next time you have something else, just send it over." When others come to buy things, they can only say that they are sold better elsewhere, so that they can buy them. Let the price of your own things be better, how can there be such a silly doll.The old shopkeeper only thought the country doll was stupid, but he liked it in his heart. He laughed and answered Yang Tianlin's words. Yang Tianlin was also happy when he got the answer, because he had been worried that this dilapidated pharmacy could get so much money. of silver?

After getting the money and talking again, Yang Tianlin left cheerfully. After he went to the street, he found a noodle restaurant. After eating a bowl of noodles as usual, he bought some pastries. When buying pastries, I deliberately bought the normal price so that my family members would not complain.

After buying the cakes, Yang Tianlin ran to the medical clinic again, thinking about Grandpa's legs, he thought, now that he has money, he can see a doctor for Grandpa, but he doesn't know if it's too late.

I searched for several medical clinics, some of them gave him a few perfunctory words, and some of them didn't let him in. Yang Tianlin always wanted to heal Grandpa's leg, so he didn't care if he was given a blank stare, and he searched one by one.

"I said kid, from what you said, grandpa's leg is hopeless. How long has it been? The injury on the bone is the last thing to delay. You'd better stop wasting your energy and money, let's go In the end, Yang Tianlin visited almost all the medical clinics in the town, and only got this answer.Yang Tianlin thought that as long as he had money, Grandpa's legs could be saved, he couldn't accept this answer, he felt sad, so it's useless now?Grandpa is not as old as the old village chief, so he can only lie on the bed in the future?

Grandpa used to be able to stand up with the help of a cane, but recently it is no longer possible, even getting out of bed is difficult, and it is really because of this that now even grandma starts to show grandpa a face at any time.

Yang Tianlin also knew about Grandpa when he was young, and also knew that there were many people in the village who didn't like his family and even grandpa and grandma. He also knew that Grandpa might not be a good person or even a good person, but So what if grandpa is not a good person?After all, grandpa is the only one in the family who treats him well.

Knowing about Uncle Yang Sheng, Yang Tianlin naturally also knew that Grandpa and Grandma did too many things to Uncle when he was young, so he naturally did not agree with Grandpa and Grandma's actions, but now he no longer thinks about it. Use it, after all, those are things in the past, and he can't change them.

Feeling sorry for grandpa, Yang Tianlin went to buy another more delicate pastry, carefully wrapped it up and prepared to take it back to grandpa, remembering what the uncle said in the morning, Yang Tianlin walked towards it.

Yang Tianlin didn't waste time selling medicine before, but he wasted a lot of time when he went to the medical clinic to inquire. When he hurried to the town, he thought that the uncle had already left, but after he left, there was indeed no one there. , So I had no choice but to walk back, but was stopped by someone after a few steps.

"Kid, wait."

"Uncle, I thought you were leaving. I wasted a lot of time before, and I wanted to leave alone when I came here without seeing you."

"No, hurry up and get in the car. My son is also on it. You are about the same age, and you happen to be talking on the road."

"Okay." After getting into the car, Yang Tianlin stared at the little fat man sitting in the car and was stunned. Why is it him?

"Hehe~ The child my father mentioned is you~" Father said earlier that you will have a child to go home with, so it is him.

Although Mantou is fat, but his skin is very fair. When he smiles, he shows a mouthful of small white teeth and his fleshy and tender face is cute.When Yang Tianlin saw Mantou for the first time, he thought he was fat, but now he thinks it sounds cute, and he thinks this boy really looks like a little brother.

"En." After saying such a simple word, Yang Tianlin fell silent.Since he was a child, there were not many children who played with him, most of the time Huzi was willing to talk to him.After his ear was injured, he talked even less, and he couldn't even talk to his family members, let alone a child who had only met once.

Yang Tianlin didn't know what to say to others, but the steamed bun was dissatisfied. Remembering the way the kid ate last time, he directly took a piece of snack in front of him and handed it to someone.As soon as Yang Tianlin saw the dim sum in front of him, he thought that he should give him something too. Last time he ate other people's food for nothing, and today his father brought him back to take him back.

Yang Tianlin, who started to give things to others, lost his attention when he saw the pastry in front of him clearly. Even the pastry he bought for Grandpa was not as good as this. He must not like it. He will go to town next time Let's talk about it when the time comes, there are many good things in the town, and I will buy them when the time comes.

"Eat it, it's delicious."

"Thank you." After receiving the food, Yang Tianlin began to eat. The steamed bun was leaning against the small table in front of him, and he propped his chin with his palm. Didn't you give him medicine? Why is he useless?

"Don't move! You fell..." Yang Tianlin didn't know why Fat Mantou stood up suddenly, but his stop obviously didn't work. Looking at the people who had already stood up, Yang Tianlin had no choice but to stand up too. Carefully hold the person's hand and ask someone to sit next to him.

"Hey, your hand is hurt again, I'll give you medicine." Mantou said to give medicine to someone, and immediately there was an extra bottle of medicine in his hand.Yang Tianlin looked at the wound medicine that Mantou carried with him, and then carefully looked at Mantou's whole body. There was no scar, not even a small scar.

"My father prepared this for me. My father said that I am too skinny. I must have medicine ready at all times. This is what my father made for me. I gave it to you. If you are injured, remember Yes, this medicine is very powerful, and the wound will not leave a scar after rubbing it." As if to prove his words, Mantou stuffed the medicine in Yang Tianlin's hand, then rolled up the sleeve of his right hand, pointing to his elbow It is said that there was a big hole drawn by the barb in the mountain, but there was no scar left.

Looking at Mantou's white and fleshy little arms, compared with his own, Yang Tianlin felt that it was not good for Mantou's hands to have scars, but his own didn't matter, there were quite a few of them anyway, so a few more would be fine, Besides, I'm not a little brother who needs to get married, as long as I have scars on my body, it's fine.

"Which kid doesn't have scars on his body, as long as he has good hands and feet." Peasant children need good hands and feet, because in this way they will not be hungry, but Mantou is the young master, and he must be thinking differently from himself.

"Okay, wipe it off, keep this for you." Said boy, Mantou knew that he was a little brother, but he also knew that his family raised him as a kid, and he knew that he would marry a wife in the future, Instead of marrying, he has always been dressed as a kid, so he clearly knew that he was not a kid and didn't refute Yang Tianlin's words, so he could be considered a kid himself.

"Thank you, Mantou."

"Hey, you finally called me by my name~"

"Well, you can call me Linzi." That's what Grandpa Yang Tianlin taught him, and he also likes others to teach him this way. Usually, when his stepmother is happy, he calls him Linzi. Most of the time, he just yells at himself or calls himself Tuoyouping, he doesn’t like being called “Hello” when others call him, so he hopes that Mantou can call him by his name.

"Linzi? No, no! I want to be called Uncle Lin Zi, how can I be called Lin Zi? How old are you? Can I call you Brother Lin?" Uncle Lin Zi is Uncle Xiaodong's husband, and my father and Uncle Xiaodong have a good relationship, so I can't It's rude to Lin Zishu.

"I'm going to be eleven soon." It was Yang Tianlin's 11th birthday a few years ago, and he was one step closer to turning 14. In three years, he would be able to take his grandpa out to live on his own.

"Ah, I thought you were my younger brother. You are older than me, so let me call you Brother Lin. Yang Tianlin? Your name is very nice, and your father really knows how to choose names." Mantou also likes his name very much, But no one in the family has called him before, and he has been teaching him Mantou all the time. Do you want him to call him by his name in the future?

"Does it sound good?"

"Well, it sounds nice? But why is it called Tianlin? Do you cut down forests every day?" Although Mantou has been lazy since childhood, he neither wants to go to school nor study hard at home, but he knows a lot of words, he just can't Even my younger brother can memorize those messy things that chew on words.

Knowing that the mantou was misunderstood, Yang Tianlin pulled his little hand over and spread out his palms. He wrote carefully while explaining: "Yang is the poplar of the poplar tree, the sky is the sky of the sky, and Lin is the rain of the double trees under the rain. .”

Mantou felt his palms itch when being scratched by someone, but he didn't take it back. It turns out that this kid can read.

"My father taught me." But he hasn't taught me for a long time.

"I was taught by my father, so I'll write my name for you too." Following Yang Tianlin's method, Mantou also wrote his name on the palm of the hand.

"Wan Yongping...your name is nice too." Peace forever, his father and father must like him very much, hope he will be safe and sound all his life, that's great, steamed buns are so good, his father and father are also really happy good.

Yangshu Town was not far from Wanjiaba, and the few people were riding in a carriage. Yang Tianlin felt that they arrived at Wanjiaba in just a short while.After getting out of the car, Yang Tianlin said thank you to Father Mantou and then headed towards Yangjia Village. At this time, Father Mantou Wan Jiahe asked his son in the car, "Mantou, why are you in such a good mood right now?"

Wan Jiahe knew his son's temperament. When he was in the town, he was a little angry because Qingyang kept keeping that child. Why did he start chatting with the child in a blink of an eye, and even told him his name? .

"Father, you should hurry up and drive the car. Didn't you say that Father is not feeling well in the morning? Let's go back quickly. I miss Father and my younger brothers." Mantou closed the car door after speaking, and looked Looking at his son who no longer wanted to talk to him, Wan Jiahe wondered if he spoiled this kid too much, and he still dared to treat him like this even now as a fat boy.

"Son, can we eat less when we go home today? Although Dad was fat when he was a child, he started to lose weight when he was your age. You see, you haven't lost any weight yet. Look, what will happen if you don’t get a wife in the future.”

"Hmph~ Dad, don't lie to me. Even if I become fatter than now, I can marry a wife. The big cow at the entrance of the village is fatter than me. Didn't he marry a wife last year? Besides, Dad I’m pretty, didn’t you always say that our steamed buns are pretty? So, no matter how fat I am, I can still marry a wife, and I’ll lose weight!” When the steamed bun said this, he leaned leisurely. Eating at the small table, even though he was staring at his wrist which was a bit thicker than the kid just now, he still felt that what he said was right, his wrist was a bit thicker but still looked good.

"Yes, little ancestor, you will lose weight, you will lose weight!" The son started talking to himself to comfort himself when he was five years old, but he is now ten years old, but there is no flesh on his body at all few.
