Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

The house was empty, there was only a cut fishing net on the ground!
"Fuck! The mute actually ran away!"

"Who was patrolling last night? Did you see where the mute went?"

"The binding was so strong, but he was able to escape. Did he have a knife on him?"

"If I had known, I would have left someone to watch him!"

Everyone was talking about it, all annoyed. They searched around the house and outside until there was no sign of the mute.

The old man led everyone out of the house without leaving a trace, sat down under the eaves of the verandah, and said comfortingly, "Forget it, this mute dares to come to the house and set fire, maybe he really has some skills. Even if we stayed here last night, he would have escaped." If you hurt someone again, it will be even worse!"

Mr. Tai also nodded and responded, "That's the truth. If he runs away, he will run away. If we have a chance to catch him back in the future, it would be best if no one is hurt and there is no loss to the family."

Everyone felt warm after hearing this. The elders did not complain about them, but instead regarded their safety as so important. Who could not be happy?

"Third uncle, sixth uncle, don't worry! As long as the mute dares to show up again, we will definitely capture him!"

"That's right, this wolf-hearted thing, next time you see him, just break his legs and see how he runs away!"

"It's just a pity that I didn't ask who was behind it to cause him to cause trouble."

Mr. Tai lowered his head and tapped the empty pipe pot, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

I just didn’t want you to know who was behind the scenes, so I killed the mute at night and buried him deep in the mountains.

Mr. Tai San is an old man. He just made some discoveries in the wing room, so he quickly changed his topic.

"The mute ran away, and he might come back to take revenge. Everyone should be smarter and patrol more diligently these days to avoid being taken advantage of by the mute. When Jiye and the others come back, the clan members are all here, so they won't be afraid of anything. ”

"Third brother is right, Jiye and the others probably won't be back for more than ten days." Mr. Tai helped.

At this time, Yang Lihua came from the backyard holding Zhuzhu.

Zhuzhu ran to Grandpa's arms and sat down, blinking her big eyes, and her face was full of joy.

The old man put down his pipe and pot and said with a smile, "Zhuzhu, are you hungry? Just wait a while for your second uncle to come back from shopping. There will definitely be snacks for you, and maybe some chicken drumsticks!"

"Thank you, grandpa!" Zhuzhu happily hugged grandpa's neck, not forgetting to fight for welfare for her friends. "Last night, Sesame Ball also caught bad guys together. Grandpa also gave it a chicken drumstick, okay?"

"Okay, I have to give it!" The old man laughed and agreed happily, which made Sesame Ball wagging his tail and being naughty.

The villagers couldn't help but praise them when they thought of the thrill last night.

"Sesame Ball was so awesome last night, biting the mute's leg and not letting go!"

"Yes, the mute even jumped over the wall with him. He is really brave and fierce, a good dog that is hard to find in the world!"

"To look after the home and care for the home, you still need something like a sesame ball! When I go to the cattle and horse market one day, if I can find a mastiff dog, my family will have to get one."

Sesame Ball was stunned by the praise, squatting at Zhuzhu's feet, raising his head and chest proudly.

Fortunately, the big black horse is not at home, otherwise he would turn his lips and spit on him...

After a while, Tai Jizong, who had gone to the city early to buy, came back.

The Tai family has never been stingy. The villagers took a risk and helped catch the mute last night. Today's reward banquet will definitely be more sumptuous.

Tai Jizong bought two large carps, half a pig's tail, two roast chickens, two jars of spirits, plus some rice noodles and other sundries.Of course, he also picked up two boxes of snacks for his niece from Min's snack shop.

Manager Min happened to be buying candied fruits with merchants from the south, and brought back a small jar of apricot preserves for Zhuzhu to try.

Zhuzhu was so happy that she immediately returned to the house with preserved apricots, snacks, and the drumsticks promised by her grandfather.

Followed by the excited jumping sesame balls...

Liu Dongniang came out wearing an apron and knew how to arrange the dishes just by glancing at the ingredients.

"Dad, the main dishes for lunch are braised pork, stewed tofu and fish braised in soy sauce. Can we add four more seasonal dishes to make six?"

"Okay, you have the final say on this matter. Everyone likes your craftsmanship, and everything tastes delicious no matter how you cook it." Mr. Tai never hesitated to praise his daughter-in-law, which made Liu Dongniang blush and proud, and happily went to work.

The young and old continued to chat, ranging from the crops in the fields to the latest news in the city. Of course, the most talked about people were guessing who instigated the mute to cause trouble, and the main suspect was the Wang family.

Although the father and son of Wang County Cheng died, only Mrs. Wang and a group of concubines, as well as her married daughter and son-in-law were left in the family.But no one could be sure whether Mrs. Wang had a seizure and couldn't find anyone to vent her anger on, so she went to the Tai family again.

It was a lively time, but there was a commotion outside the courtyard gate.

It turned out that the women were working hard in the backyard, the men were chatting in the front yard, and the naughty boys came to join in the fun, but no one supervised them, and fights broke out over the smallest things.

The two naughty boys tore together and became a rolling gourd, and their clean clothes turned into mud balls in the blink of an eye!

When everyone heard the noise, they all came out to take a look.

The two naughty boys were pulled apart, and it turned out to be Tai Jicai's eldest son and Tiedan'er!
Tai Sanye raised his hand and slapped his grandson, which made the boy shrink back. Although Tiedan'er was not beaten, he took a few steps back in fright.

Mr. Tai San angrily chased him away, "Get out of here! Go home. If I see you fighting again, you will go work in the fields! You have enough to eat and clothing every day, so you have free time to make trouble." Wild boars can’t eat fine chaff, it’s worthless food!”

The two boys ran away immediately, fearing they would be beaten again if they were too late.

Mr. Tai San shook his head angrily, "These boys are really a headache. I originally planned to study with Yongning, but it turns out that my daughter is doing well in school. These boys just don't understand. They would rather catch fish and climb trees than write more words."

"Now Yongning goes to the city to study, and his step-grandfather's wife's teachings are good, but they are still ineffective. I am afraid that he will have to stay in the village to farm in the future. If he goes out to do business, he will easily be deceived and come back naked."

Everyone around them looked embarrassed when they heard this, because they also had children at home, and no one usually disciplined them.

In their understanding, children should not get sick, have enough food and clothing, and if they are raised to the age of thirteen or fourteen, they will be strong laborers and can work for the family.

As for those who can make a living by studying, it seems to be a very distant thing.

Mr. Tai saw what everyone was thinking and didn't feel angry at all.

Maybe in the future, when Yongning becomes successful, everyone will be able to take studying more seriously.

As for now...

He stored a pot of tobacco for his old brother and persuaded with a smile, "They say naughty boys make good men. Don't look at them now. If they become sensible in the future, they will definitely be good. Besides, it doesn't necessarily mean that boys don't like reading. There is no future.

"I will look for some masters to come over in a while. If any kid is willing to learn and can endure hardships, I will learn martial arts from him.

"Not to mention keeping fit, I don't have to worry about them getting bullied when they go out. Even if someone comes to the village to cause trouble, we have helpers." (End of Chapter)
