Pastoral little master

Chapter 138 Who is in charge? (Happy Double Day!!)
The spacious courtyard of Patriarch Tan's house was full of villagers, and everyone had a look of joy on their faces.

Some of them had already read the recruitment notice of Qiduo's family, and they planned to go to Qiduo's house later. Some of them didn't know the news until they heard from Brigadier Tan.

Knowing that there is such a high salary, except for those who are usually lazy, everyone else is willing to go.

Seeing Tan Dejin and Qiduo now, everyone greeted them very affectionately and wanted to ask more details. Some people wished they could dig lotus roots to make money now.

At this moment, Qiduo was not in the mood to answer these questions, she just wanted to get the Zhao family settled as soon as possible, otherwise this shameless person might really obstruct the lotus digging tomorrow.

"Everyone, be safe and don't get bored. We will come and explain to you in an hour's time." Tan Dejin said loudly to everyone according to Qi Duo's intention.

Only then did the villagers quiet down.

Patriarch Tan saw them go back and forth, and looked a little wrong, so he hurriedly brought them into the house to ask the reason.

Qiduo's eyes were red, and she said to Patriarch Tan very aggrieved, "Grandpa Patriarch, you have to be the master of our family."

"Girl, don't be sad, tell me quickly what happened." Patriarch Tan hurriedly said.

"Grandfather of the patriarch, my grandma now knows that there are lotus roots in Luhuapo, and she just told my father that those lotus roots do not belong to our family, but they belong to them. If we don't give them to them, our family will never even think about digging them.

Grandpa patriarch, you also know the situation of our family. Liulang has been in poor health. Last time he fell ill, he owed him hundreds of taels of foreign debt. We just dig some lotus root and sell it to see if we can pay back some.

Grandpa patriarch, you were there when the family was separated, and the contract of separation clearly stated that Luhuapo belongs to our family, but now...we don't know what to do, so we can only trouble you, Grandpa. . "Qiduo rubbed her eyes and told what happened.

Since Mr. Tan and his wife can do such shameless things in such a disregard of face, there is no need for me to cover them up.

At the same time, talking about the difficulties in the family made the patriarch feel a little sympathetic, and the emotional balance would naturally shift towards his family.

Also, I would like to remind you that the separation is done by you.

"Oh, your grandpa is confused now, how could he do this, let's go, I'll let you take a look." Patriarch Tan thumped the table resentfully, and waved his big hand.

What he did when they separated, now that there is no disagreement, he will naturally go to resolve it.

Moreover, he was still angry, Mr. Tan and Mrs. Zhao's actions clearly did not take him seriously, how could they go back on what they had discussed together.

Also, he probably knew something about the Lin family's resignation yesterday, and he was already somewhat dissatisfied with Mr. Tan and his wife.

Qiduo winked at Tan Dejin.

Seeing Patriarch Tan appear, Mr. Tan and Mrs. Zhao were stunned. They thought Tan Dejin had brought Qiduo home, but they actually called the patriarch over.

"Patriarch, please sit down quickly." Old Master Tan stood up and called out dully.

"I won't sit, second child, follow me to the study." Patriarch Tan waved his hand, and then went straight out of the house to the Tan family's study.

Old Master Tan followed Patriarch Tan to the study with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Qiduo blinked, er, why didn't the patriarch settle the matter face to face?
Tan Dejin pursed his lips and sighed in his heart.

He really didn't want to mess things up to where it is today, he was forced to do nothing!

Looking at his father's expression, Qiduo knew that he felt a little uncomfortable. The reason why his attitude was so firm today must have played a certain role in what he said to him before.

Before coming to the front yard of the Tan family, the family also discussed the countermeasures together. Tan Dejin said at the time that if it was not possible, they would share two acres of lotus root for the Zhao family to dig.

Qiduo said that if this patience can be exchanged for eternal peace, then you can give two acres of lotus root to Mr. Tan and the others, just earn less, it doesn't matter.

But what kind of person Mrs. Zhao is, everyone knows that if you obey her this time, she will not calm down, let alone appreciate the filial piety of her children and grandchildren in her heart, she only thinks it is a matter of course.At the same time, you will think that your threats and lures have worked, and you will use this trick even more next time.

After asking for lotus root, she may come to ask for soybean sprouts and mung bean sprouts, as long as she likes anything from your house, she will come to ask for it.

Her greed will never be satisfied, it will only disturb the family, and she will never live a peaceful life.

Both Xu Shi and Tan Debao agreed with Qi Duo's words, and they must not agree to the conditions proposed by Zhao Shi.

Even if you want to be filial to Mr. Tan and the others, you can use other methods in the future.

Only then did Tan Dejin nodded, saying that he insisted on not agreeing to Zhao's request.

"Get the two of you out of here, I'm upset just looking at it." Mrs. Zhao scolded Tan Dejin and Qiduo with a cold face.

Qiduo shook her head lightly, and went to the yard with Tan Dejin to wait for Patriarch Tan to come out.

She was still a little confused, and wanted to call Patriarch Tan over to reason with her face to face, but he actually called Old Master Tan to speak alone.

I'm worried that Patriarch Tan will be persuaded by old man Tan's fallacious reasoning, and he will turn to him then, that would be bad.

I don't know what patriarch Tan said to Mr. Tan, the two of them stayed in the study for half an hour before coming out, making Qiduo father and daughter wait.

Not knowing the content of the conversation, Qi Duo couldn't help feeling uneasy.

Seeing them coming out, Qiduo and Tan Dejin rushed to greet them, looked at Patriarch Tan, and waited for an answer.

Patriarch Tan said, "Dejin, Qiduo, your grandfather promised not to fight with you for the lotus root. This is also his kindness as an elder. In the future, you must be filial to their elders, and don't forget your kindness." ,do you know?"

This can be regarded as giving old man Tan face.

"Well, don't worry, patriarch grandpa, filial piety to elders is what our juniors should do. Grandma is so sympathetic to our juniors, we will definitely not treat grandma badly." Qiduo nodded in agreement with a smile.

"That's right, we don't need to tell our parents, we should teach our parents a lesson." Tan Dejin followed behind.

"That's good." Patriarch Tan nodded.

It's just that Mr. Tan's complexion is not good-looking, and he is really heartbroken to lose those lotus root for nothing.

He regretted it so much, he should have gone to Luhuapo to take a look when the family separated.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.

But he was still a little grateful to Patriarch Tan, and didn't scold him in front of his children and grandchildren.

Just now patriarch Tan was in the study room and scolded him severely. After thinking about it carefully, those words were very reasonable, so he stopped fighting for this lotus root.

Patriarch Tan said, your eldest son's family is doing well, and you have honor as an old man, and Dejin is kind and filial. When he gets better in the future, he can watch you suffer and suffer. If you don't tell me, I can't spare them either.

But if you do this now, it will only chill the hearts of your children and grandchildren, and they will never sincerely honor you in the future.Think about it, the last time the Wu family came, if it wasn't for the idea of ​​the Dejin family, where would you have picked up your face later, and it wouldn't have become a big joke in the village...

Mr. Tan sighed softly, nodded to Tan Dejin, and said, "Boss, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat. I just hope that everyone in our family can live a good life. I only hope that your family will get rich in the future, don't forget Parents and brothers in this yard, you must not forget your roots."

"Well, Dad, I've made a note, I'm not that kind of person." Tan Dejin nodded seriously.

"Sure, let's do this, you dig lotus roots to be important, and I'll ask my family members to help, and you can pay as you please." Mr. Tan put forward new conditions.

Qiduo couldn't help frowning.

It's really hard to manage people like the Tan family digging lotus roots!
"Grandpa, who are going?" Qiduo couldn't help asking.

"Go into the room and ask your grandma." Mr. Tan pointed to the upper room.

Qiduo nodded, and they entered the upper room.

Patriarch Tan also followed in.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of Patriarch Tan and Qiduo's father and daughter, Mrs. Zhao knew that Mr. Tan was persuaded, and suddenly felt depressed.

"Old woman, please arrange to see who in the family will help dig the lotus roots." Mr. Tan said.

Zhao secretly gritted her teeth.

Even if he was not reconciled, he did not dare to refute Patriarch Tan.

She said with a cold face, "Except for you and me, Osmanthus fragrans, and Qilangbali who can't work, everyone else will go."

She thought that the wages of Qiduo's family were quite high, and the more people went there, the more money they earned.

"Sure, call them out now and go to my house for a meeting." Patriarch Tan nodded in agreement.

Qiduo and Tan Dejin didn't object, they could go if they wanted to, and if they couldn't work, they would all come back when the time came.

Patriarch Tan and Qiduo left Tan's house first, called Tan Debao together, and went to Patriarch Tan's house, just in time to finalize the number and list of hired workers.

There are still some important matters that need to be clarified face to face, so as to save time and trouble.

Mrs. Zhao called all the family members over and told about digging the lotus root tomorrow.

When they heard that they were going to dig lotus roots, Sandao was the first to shout, "I won't go, the mud is so dirty."

"Don't go? You think you are Miss Qianjin, huh!" Mrs. Zhao snorted coldly.

Si Zao and Wu Xing, who wanted to call out at first, shut their mouths, not daring to speak any more.

"Mother?" Sandao looked at Mrs. Yang, hoping she could intercede.

Yang thought of the Xiang family's marriage, Sandao will be the head of the house in the future, how can she do such rough work.

She pursed her lower lip and said to Mrs. Zhao, "That's right, mother, Santao and Wuxing are not used to it..."

"It's okay if they don't do it. Let them sew their mouths together. Which one is born to do things? I used to be too used to them. I have no virtue at all. I have to go when I say it." Zhao said ruthlessly. He slapped the table hard and counted.

"Then why didn't my sister go?" Sandao felt so wronged that tears welled up in her eyes.

"Hey, you damn girl, you still dare to fight against your sister-in-law in doing things. She is your elder. She is neither old nor young, and she has no education at all. Do you want me to slap you in the face?" Zhao said with a high-pitched voice. Call.

Tan Guihua raised her head proudly.

Sandao lowered her head resentfully.

Under Zhao's coercion, everyone in the Tan family who was named had to dig lotus root, and then Mr. Tan asked Tan Decai and Erlang Sanlang to go to the patriarch Tan's house for a meeting to see what they had to say.

Seeing that everyone has arrived, Patriarch Tan repeated what he said before, and then asked Tan Dejin to clarify some requirements and details to everyone.

"Duo, tell me." Tan Dejin whispered to Qi Duo.

Qiduo nodded, walked in front of the crowd, and was about to speak, when someone from below asked Tan Dejin, "Brother Dejin, who is in charge of your family? The patriarch asked you to say, how can you let Qi girl say that?"

Immediately, two or three people followed behind.

This is because someone was jealous of Qiduo's family and deliberately stabbed Tan Dejin with words, trying to make him look ugly in public.

Of course, these people didn't expect to dig lotus roots, thinking that I would rather not have that money than work for your family.

Let's watch Tan Tekin and see how he answers this question.

　First of all, I wish you all a happy Double Festival! !Sahua is grateful to sister May for her support, and thanks to sisters *~Xiaomi*~ and Boring Xiaojian for the three pink tickets. I love you guys! !Keep asking for all support, thank you! !
