I traveled through time and space to hunt and support my family in ancient times
Chapter 76 Borrowing a Car
Old man Jiang is here again, asking to borrow the car.
Jiang Changshun got married, Jiang Youguang and Fan didn't come back, Jiang Youcai and Qian also came back, only Liu and Old Man Jiang came back. The bride was brought into the family, you had the banquet, and then left in a low-key manner, isn't that right?
The words sounded nice: "It's not free use, it's rental. Qingzhou is too far away, and my body can't stand walking and taking a ride. Your family is the only one in the village that has a horse carriage. I... do you want to rent your carriage?"
Jiang Youshan stood in the yard without saying a word.
Old Man Jiang thought he was hesitating and said, "Don't worry, I'll pay you according to the price of renting a car. I don't need you."
Old man Jiang was also upset. Looking at Aunt Cai's family who had just left, he secretly cursed Jiang Youshan for being a coward, letting Cai control him tightly. Not only did he take in his father-in-law and his wife, but he also helped Aunt Cai who had nothing to do with him? It was so difficult for him to ask his father to send him off?
But, what can we do?
If he had just said a word and given something when the family was divided, instead of kicking him out of the house, he would have been able to ask Jiang Youshan to contribute now with a clear conscience.
pity......
Old man Jiang really didn't want to come to Jiang Youshan for help, but as he said just now, it was not easy for him and Liu to come back. They changed cars and walked, and the whole bumpy journey made him cough. If he went back and went through this again, his old bones would fall apart.
It was Liu who came up with the idea and mocked Jiang Youshan's family, saying that they had only received 100 taels of silver from their own family, but they had forgotten their parents and were ungrateful. In the end, she even said: I don't know how much silver they would have to give to buy his carriage?
She was also tempted, and hurried back, almost losing the energy to show off. She wanted to ride in someone else's carriage, but didn't want to pay, so she deliberately reminded Old Man Jiang in a sarcastic way.
Old man Jiang knew it well, and realized that Jiang Youshan was not easy to fool, so he took the initiative to offer the money. He didn't believe that Jiang Youshan was willing to accept it.
It had only been a month since they had arrived there, and Old Man Jiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Jiang Youguang was extremely respectful to the old couple, but not only did they have no servants to order around, they also had to work. Qian's belly was getting big, and Fan was acting like an official's wife and refused to go to the stove. Liu, who hadn't cooked for years, put on an apron and prepared food and drink for the whole family.
Old man Jiang couldn't sit idle either. For the sake of Jiang Youguang's future, he accompanied the county magistrate's father every day, drinking tea and watching birds, always putting on a smile.
Jiang Changping relied on Jiang Youguang's relationship to enter a restaurant to learn to be an accountant. Jiang Youcai also joined the kitchen as an assistant.
Old man Jiang offered money, but Jiang Youshan didn't want it. But then he remembered what Jiang Yue had said before, that if anyone took advantage of her, she would get it back a hundred or a thousand times. So he didn't agree immediately, but said that he would go back and discuss it.
Old man Jiang got angry and said, "You are the head of the family. You can't let a woman put pressure on you and support her family endlessly without caring about your own father."
Jiang Youshan remained silent and asked the question that had been suppressed in his heart: "Has the old man been in charge of the family all these years? Is the life of my family also determined by the old man?"
"you--"
Old Man Jiang said nothing, waved his hand and told him to go ask, while he stood in the yard waiting.
Grandma Cai and Grandpa Cai were both very kind-hearted. Besides, the uncle had just helped the eldest daughter's family, so they said, "No matter what, he is your biological father. It is not easy for him to go back and forth. If you can send him off here, please send him off."
Jiang Youshan then looked at Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue giggled: "Dad, this is just a small matter. Didn't he say he would give money? Since he gives money, you can go if you want. But don't let our car be detained over there when we get there..."
Cai also said: "The old man is probably not that kind of person, but I can't say for sure about Jiang Youguang. That is also his territory. We can't take the risk to earn this money."
Jiang Youshan was stunned for a moment: "Well, forget it."
Jiang Yue smiled again and said, "How about I help you deliver it..."
"Really?"
"Of course, but I wonder if the old man will let me send it?"
Jiang Yue smiled and left the house.
Jiang Youshan followed him out immediately, and when he heard Jiang Yue say that they were only sending Old Man Jiang out, his steps froze instantly.
Only send Old Man Jiang and tell Mrs. Liu to forget about it? Does the girl really want to send someone off for him?
Old man Jiang was so angry that he turned around and left.
Jiang Xue sneered and said with a snort, "He came here by himself, and his two sons didn't see him off. Now he wants to go back, and he wants our family to see him off?"
Jiang Xue ran out to school with her schoolbag on her back. She met Jiang Changli in the school and told him what the old man said. Jiang Changli went back and told Li and Jiang Youtian.
Li finally made it from being a daughter-in-law to being a mother-in-law. She said with a straight face, "I've already told you to let our father have a good rest. We can find a bullock cart to take him and his wife to the mountain pass and then take someone else's cart. Why are you in such a hurry to find that family's bad luck? Do you wish our family would be in trouble?"
Li's words made sense. This year, Jiang Changshun did not go to school and worked on the land with Jiang Youtian. Although the adults of the two families did not interact with each other, the children did. Not long ago, they borrowed Jiang Youshan's ox cart to plow the land. Of course, they paid for it.
Li wanted her children to be on good terms with Jiang Youshan's family. Now that Old Man Jiang and Liu are making a fuss, isn't this creating an unnecessary obstacle?
Jiang Youtian was also somewhat angry with his father, so he did not even bother to let them stay. Two days later, he asked Lao Wang to hitch a bullock cart and sent Old Man Jiang and his wife back home.
After a busy spring ploughing, Jiang Yue received a letter from Jiang Ming, which said how magnificent Honglin Academy was and how good the environment was. He said that everything was fine with him in the academy, his classmates were friendly, and his teacher was taking care of him. He would go home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and asked his parents not to worry and his brothers and sisters not to be naughty.
Jiang Youshan was grinning from ear to ear, and Grandma Cai and Grandpa Cai were also happy, but Mrs. Cai wanted to cry after hearing what she heard.
The two little ones chirped.
Jiang Xue was curious: "Sister, what does the academy look like inside? Is it more beautiful than the courtyard in the storybook?"
Jiang Yue noticed that Cai was thinking about her son, and said, "Honglin Academy is built on a mountain, with a garden, rockery, and long corridors and pavilions. When I went there, there were green plants, not bare at all. Now the garden over there should be full of flowers, beautiful beyond words..."
"Sister, our house is big, can we plant flowers? There are wild flowers on the hillside, I will dig them up and plant them in our yard. We can enjoy the flowers when they bloom."
Jiang Yue smiled and nodded, "Of course we can plant them. We can build a pavilion and a veranda at home, dig a pond, and plant lotus flowers. When the lotus flowers bloom in summer, they will be beautiful."
Jiang Lei's eyes lit up: "It's good to dig a pond. We can raise fish, and the fish are delicious."
Jiang Xue's eyes sparkled as she clapped her hands and said, "You can also pick lotus seeds..."
Cai's thoughts came to an end: "Why do you always think about spending money? Our family is fine like this."
Jiang Youshan also said: "It would be great if we could grow vegetables and crops in our yard..."
"Dad, is that large area outside not enough for you to farm? How about I ask the head of the village to buy some more land?"
"Don't--, Dad just said that."
"That's right, the pattern needs to be opened up."
Cai Jiang Youshan:?( 'w' )?
With his daughter leading the family to fly and pavilions and ponds, is his family going to become a wealthy gentry?
