On Xu Qingmu's side, the family was satisfied and happily preparing to go to bed, but over at the old house, no one could sleep at all.

It all starts while eating.

Because Old Man Xu couldn't cook, he ate with the boss's family, and Xu Guanghua, who lived in the fourth room.

Uncle Xu and Uncle Xu didn't want to take care of the child at first, but it was Xu Guanghua himself who promised them that he would work hard and earn more work points, so they agreed that Xu Guanghua would live with them in their big house.

Despite this, the difference between Xu Guanghua's life in Dafang and before is the difference between heaven and earth.

Before the family was separated, he didn't have to do anything. As a half-grown boy, when he opened his eyes every day, he was either thinking about what to eat or what to play today. He had never been out of the ground, even the most relaxing thing was to hunt pig grass. I have never done any work.

Later, the family was divided, and he and his eldest brother were required to work in the fields, but because his eldest brother was supporting him, his father was not so strict with him, and he was lazy when he could work.

Later, his father was arrested, and he began to be lazy openly, not even going to work, and his mother had no time to care about him, so he was very free for a few days.

Later, when his mother returned to her natal family and remarried, he was the only one left in the fourth house. After he lived with the eldest house, the situation changed drastically.

He can no longer eat, drink and play every day.

You have to get up and work every day before dawn. You have to carry water, sweep the floor, wash clothes, and light a fire to cook. There is no one thing you cannot do without.

Of course, there are differences between men and women, and in order not to offend others, Aunt Xu is still somewhat sensible and is not so stupid as to let him wash the clothes of the whole family, only the clothes of the men in the family.

When it's time to go to work, he has to work in the fields with him. If he earns less work points, he won't be able to eat today's meal and will be hungry.

After several times, Xu Guanghua had to work conscientiously and earn eight work points every day.

This was what Aunt Xu had ordered for him.

It makes no sense that a 14-year-old boy who is about to turn 15 can't earn eight work points. If he can't earn it, he must be lazy.

Since you are lazy, then just don’t eat!
In a short period of time, Xu Guanghua lost a lot of weight.

Old man Xu saw what happened to his grandson Xu Guanghua in Dafang, but he said nothing and had no intention of standing up for him at all.

Xu Guanghua also placed his hopes on Old Man Xu as his grandfather at the beginning, then gradually became disappointed, and now he is resentful.

He resented Old Man Xu, his grandfather, for not helping him, resented the people in Dafang for treating him badly, and even more resented Sanfang and his family.

He always remembered the words of his mother Ma Dahua. If Xu Qingmu hadn't refused to help, his family would not be what it is now.

He even hated the people in the second room.

He felt that with the two houses so next to each other, what kind of life was he living? The person in the second house was not blind, how could he not see it?
But Xu Qingyun, his second uncle, watched him suffer with his own eyes and refused to help him, so he also hated his second brother.

It was also the experience during this period that made him grow a lot. Even if he was resentful, he didn't dare to show it and just hid it silently in his heart.

At dinner time in the evening, Xu Guanghua squatted by the door holding his rice bowl, silently scooping the very rough sorghum porridge into his mouth.

To be precise, pour it into your mouth.

Because she is not working now, Mrs. Xu said that there is no need to exert effort and there is no need to eat so full, so the roughest sorghum porridge contains more water and less porridge.

Only Aunt Xu, Old Man Xu, Xu Guangming and Xu Guanghua could eat this kind of porridge in the big house.

Most of the water in the pot was in Xu Guanghua's bowl.

Xu Guanghua was picking the last sorghum rice from the bowl into his mouth when he heard his father say from the other side of the dinner table: "I'm getting married."

"What?" Accompanied by the exclamations, there was also the sound of porcelain colliding with the table. It was the sound of Uncle Xu and the others not holding the coarse porcelain bowl firmly in their hands and falling on the dining table.

After hearing the news, the whole family looked at Old Man Xu in disbelief.

Only Xu Guanghua at the door just glanced at Old Man Xu in surprise, and then continued to fight with the last few grains of sorghum in the bowl.

As if he was an outsider, no matter what those behind him did, it had nothing to do with him.

Uncle Xu suspected that he had heard wrong, so he spoke again to confirm, "Dad, what did you just say? You want to get married? Dad, aren't you confused?"

In fact, what Old Man Xu said just now was after a long ideological struggle.

After he and Niu Xiaolian wanted to meet again, the situation of the year reappeared, and his heart, which had been silent for many years, began to beat violently again.

After the two had a heart-to-heart talk with each other, he got excited and said he wanted to marry her.

Niu Xiaolian didn't say yes, but looking at the other party's expression, Old Man Xu felt that she should be happy.

Old Man Xu felt that he could not keep Niu Xiaolian waiting for a long time, so he reluctantly said goodbye to Niu Xiaolian and returned home.

The moment he stepped into the house, his feverish head temperature immediately cooled down.

Thinking of the reactions of his two sons at home after hearing the news, he hesitated.

After such a hesitation, it was time to have dinner.

It wasn't until he was almost full after dinner that he made up his mind and mustered up the courage to say those words.

After saying the first sentence, the discomfort and embarrassment in Old Man Xu's heart were completely gone.

Seeing that his eldest son's eyes were about to fall off, he suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart, "What do you mean by this? Could it be that your father and I can't get married anymore?"

Uncle Xu was really shocked this time. He almost couldn't find his voice, "No, dad, you are already old, why do you want to get married?"

Old Man Xu: "What do you mean? Your father and I are alone now, why can't we get married again? I'm not a mess like your fourth brother. I'm looking for a wife seriously."

"But...my mother has only been gone for less than a month!"

"So what? Your mother is gone, do you want me to live alone?"

Uncle Xu retorted, "Dad, why are you all alone? Aren't we your family?"

Aunt Xu was very dissatisfied.

What does this mean, old man?Do you think you are unhappy living with their family?Or do you think their food is unpalatable?
But which Manchu team is not like this?
Xu Qingmu's family has good food, but they are not willing to support you as their biological father.

Old Man Xu: "How can this be the same?"

Uncle Xu put down the chopsticks in her hands and stopped eating. "Dad, why is this different? You are already at this age and you are getting married again. Why are you laughing at our family?"

"Anyway, I don't think this is appropriate."

Aunt Xu crossed her arms and looked like she disagreed.

Uncle Xu also said: "Dad, this is really not good. You should give up this idea."
