Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 654

Yang Ruoqing's gaze fell on Yang Huamei, and she was startled secretly.

Not seeing her for a while, Yang Huamei has lost a lot of weight!

Could it be that I had a stone in my stomach last time, and I have learned a lesson, so I just shut up now?

However, even if she has lost a lot of weight, standing there is still enough to hold three Tans!

Yang Huamei and Mrs. Tan hugged each other and cried for a while, and helped Mrs. Tan into the east room to talk.

Here, Lao Yang took his sons to clean up the mess in the kitchen.

Yang Huazhong said to Yang Ruoqing privately: "Girl, get some more rice at noon, and I will let your grandma come over to have a meal later."

"Well, then I'll go home and cook."

Yang Ruoqing turned around and went back to the kitchen in the backyard.

……

Lunch is ready soon.

All the craftsmen on the construction site came, and so did Lao Yangtou.

Mrs. Tan didn't come over, and Mrs. Yang couldn't invite him, so Mrs. Sun sent a bowl of food over.

In the afternoon, Lao Yang entrusted someone to deliver a message to Yang Hualin and Yang Huazhou in the town.

At night, the second and fifth child came back in a hurry.

In the former dining hall of Lao Yang's family, Lao Yang held his first family meeting after the separation.

The five sons gathered together, and Yang Ruoqing was among them.

Everyone privately speculated about what Lao Yang called the big guys over this time to discuss.

Sitting behind the crowd, Yang Ruoqing was also thinking secretly.

She felt that tonight's meeting must have something to do with the fire caused by Tan's mistake during the day.

On the other side of the Eight Immortals table, Lao Yang smoked dry tobacco for a while.

Seeing that everyone was here, he pulled out the tobacco stick and knocked it on the table, making a sound.

"I called the five of you brothers over tonight to discuss with you about the retirement of your mother and me."

Old Yang headed straight to the point.

A pair of eyes swept across the sons, and fell directly on the second son Yang Hualin.

Yang Ruoqing's gaze also fell on the second uncle.

I saw him, who was usually the most active in family meetings, sitting there with his head drooped.

An absent-minded look.

I'm afraid it's because cousin Lan'er was divorced by Lao Mu's family, isn't it annoying?

Yang Ruoqing thought to herself.

Over there, Fourth Uncle Yang Huaming stood up.

"Father, didn't you and your mother discuss the matter of taking care of the elderly when we separated?"

Yang Huaming said.

"We have clearly stated how much rice we should send to you two elders a year. Why are you still talking about it at this moment?" he asked.

Old Yang took a look at Yang Huaming and heaved a long sigh.

"This time, that time!"

The old man said.

"At that time, your mother and I were still healthy, and your mother was not blind."

"We have rice and food in our hands, so we don't need to bother you."

"But it's different now, your mother is blind, she can't hold the needle and thread, and she can't cook the food."

"This fire broke out today, maybe the next one will have to go out again, it's too dangerous..."

The old man shook his head with a look of palpitation and fear.

Yang Huazhou had just learned the whole process of today's fire from Yang Huazhong.

Yang Huazhou stood up with fear on his face and said: "If you are blind, you can't do anything, and you don't even know if the food is burnt. How are you going to live this day?"

"Father, just tell me, what are you going to do?" Yang Huazhou asked.

Lao Yang glanced at these outspoken fifth sons, secretly satisfied.

He raised his hands to Yang Huaming and Yang Huazhou, and the two brothers sat back.

"My idea is that the way your mother and I provide for the elderly needs to be changed," said the old man.

"Why?"

Yang Huaming stood up again and asked nervously.

Old Yang said: "You don't need to send us rice every year..."

Old Yang had only finished speaking, and Yang Huaming cried out in surprise.

"Really?" he asked.

Old Yang's face turned dark.

"I haven't finished talking yet." The old man said dissatisfied.

"Hey, Dad, go ahead." Yang Huaming scratched his head excitedly, and sat back.

Old Yangtou continued: "Your mother and I don't want you to send rice."

"From tomorrow onwards, we will take turns following you through each room for a month, starting from the eldest room."

"what?"

"What?"

"No way?"

These three exclamations came from Yang Hua'an and Yang Hualin respectively.

The last scream came from Yang Huaming.

"Father, can't this work? Jin's cooking is like pig food. I'm afraid you and mother won't be used to it!"

Yang Hua'an, who had been silent all this time, couldn't sit still.

Quickly got up and said with a smile.

"Besides, Jin's clumsy, needlework is not good..."

"It's better for you to live with them than to follow our Dafang. Our Dafang should follow the old rules and send rice every year!"

"I agree with what my brother said."

As soon as Yang Hua'an finished speaking, Yang Hualin, who had been listless all this time, braced himself up and joined the 'battle'.

"Our second room has lived in the town for a long time, and the yard we live in is small and crowded, so we still rent it."

"Father and mother live with our second wife, and they are wronged. My son is reluctant to let the second elder suffer wronged!"

Speaking of emotion, Yang Hualin gestured and raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes.

Old Yang looked at Yang Hualin's actions, and his face became even darker.

Yang Huaming, who was sitting next to Yang Hualin, couldn't hold it anymore.

He stood up and said excitedly: "Father, have you heard what the two brothers said? Your new method won't work!"

Old Yang looked at the eldest child, the second child and the fourth child, and the muscles on his face twitched violently.

These three bastards!

The old man shifted his gaze to Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou again.

The two brothers were silent, with changing expressions on their faces, as if they were thinking about something.

Lao Yang suppressed the sadness in his heart, and asked the two of them by name.

"Third, fifth, what do you think about this?"

Yang Huazhong remained silent, but his eyes were in the crowd, looking for the figures of Mrs. Sun and Yang Ruoqing.

As if asking.

But Yang Huazhou has already got up.

The young man glanced around the dining room, and said loudly: "Father and mother belong to all of us, it is not easy for father and mother to give birth to us and raise us."

"If the mother's eyes are not blind, I can rest assured to let them live by themselves."

"But it's different now, my mother is blind."

"As sons, we should shoulder this responsibility!" Yang Huazhou said loudly.

There was a gleam of light in Lao Yang's ashen eyes.

"Fifth, so you agree to my proposal?" the old man asked tremblingly.

Yang Huazhou nodded.

"Okay, okay!" Old Yang also nodded repeatedly.

The old man's gaze shifted to Yang Huazhong again.

"Third brother, the brothers have all expressed their views, and you are the only one left, what do you think?" the old man asked.

Yang Huazhong had a troubled expression on his face.

He stood up and said truthfully to Old Yang: "Father, from my original intention, I have the same idea as Fifth Brother."

"I also want to serve you and your mother as filial piety as a son."

"But--"

"My son thinks about the quarrels and unhappiness we lived under the same roof in the past, and I feel uncomfortable."
