After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

A group of people worked until dinner time and still didn't finish their work. They continued working after dinner, and the others didn't leave either.

It took a full hour to finally set up the two stoves. Fang Tong went to the kitchen and saw that today's work was almost done.

Liu Cui and the others were sweating profusely from exhaustion: "Then let's go today!"

"and many more!"

Qian Fengping chased out from behind, holding a few bags of things in her hands: "This is what's left. I'll give you some to take back. You've worked hard today!"

When a few people opened it, they found that each of them had a big bag of cake and some chestnuts that were not fried well, but they were still edible.

"Oh, no, no, you guys keep these, they'll last you a long time!"

Qian Fengping quickly waved her hand: "Just take it back if I tell you to. Otherwise, I won't dare to ask you to work next time."

Then they took it and left with a smile.

Don't underestimate these things. There are quite a lot of leftovers from their daily work, especially the cake. They don't have much chance to eat it, so it's worth taking it home and letting their family taste it.

After finishing the work, Fang Tong felt relieved, but his body was exhausted. He walked into the house while holding his waist.

"Daughter! Daughter? Come quickly and give daddy a massage!"

Fang Nanzhi ran over and followed him into the house, climbed onto the kang and massaged his waist.

"Oh, yes, yes, a little further down, it's right here..."

He was groaning. He had never done any purely physical work in his entire life. Today he was moving stones around and carrying loads of stones on his back. It was not like him at all.

"Ah, you are still my daughter, but you are a little weak now. When you eat more delicious food, your father will make you fat and plump, and then you will definitely be stronger."

Fang Nanzhi was actually trying hard enough, almost using all her strength, but her father was really thick-skinned!

Qian Fengping walked in, stretched out her hand, suddenly picked her up and put her on the ground.

"I come."

Fang Nanzhi looked confused and climbed onto the kang from another direction. He stared at them blankly for a while, then rolled his eyes around.

Fang Tong lay on the bed, silent now, without even raising his head. When he was asked if he could use enough strength, he just nodded randomly.

He no longer felt any pain in his waist, only his exposed ears were slightly red.

Qin Yan's wheelchair came in and he saw the situation in the room but didn't say anything. Fang Tong moved but was held down by the hand on his waist.

He was a little overwhelmed and could only clear his throat and change the subject.

"Well, our family has had so many happy events recently. Not only have we received many new orders, but we also bought the cow outright. You and your sister can both go to college. Life is getting better and better."

Qian Fengping also smiled slightly, and put her hands firmly on him: "It's you who's been busy all the time. It was you who negotiated the deal, and it was you who took us to the capital. Not to mention the academy, you found it well."

Fang Tong has never been praised like this in his life.

These days, I always brag with my brothers and flatter each other, but it feels different from this.

He was lying in bed, but he felt a little dizzy.

The little girl Fang Nanzhi is almost better than her father. She sits on the kang with her head raised.

"Yes, my dad is the best! If my uncle hadn't spent all his money before and the family hadn't supported my dad's education, my dad would definitely be the most promising!"

Qin Yan couldn't help but smile when he saw her like this.

My sister is good in every way except that she is too confident. She is full of confidence not only towards Uncle Fang, but also towards him, mother, and herself.

Speaking of this, Fang Tong also has something to say.

"Yes, Mother Qian, everyone remember this. Today the village chief has decided that I will be adopted by my second uncle who has long passed away. From now on, I will have no relationship with the Fang family."

"When you see the old couple from the Fang family in the future, don't call them by the wrong names. Mother Qian should call them uncle and aunt."

Qian Niang nodded: "Okay, I remember."

Fang Tong's tone suddenly became much more relaxed: "Now, there's no one above us, and no one is putting pressure on you either. No matter if I'm home or not, no matter who comes, you don't have to give face. If you can't convince me, just beat them out!"

Qian Niang was immediately amused.

In fact, she never thought that the Fang family was troublesome before. Every family has its own problems. Even those people in the Qin family were not easy to deal with.

Not to mention that whenever something happens, as long as Fang Tong knows about it, he will definitely support his family unconditionally, and other things that he can solve himself will be kept out.

Now that we have severed our relationship, I have less to worry about.

"By the way, my son and daughter will start attending the academy tomorrow. Will they be living there in the future?"

Fang Tong thought for a moment and said, "That's not necessarily true. The dean didn't mention it today, so what's the matter?"

Mother Qian glanced at the two children and said, "I'm worried. My son has difficulty walking, and my daughter is so young. I don't want them to live outside."

Fang Tong held her hand and climbed up from the kang: "I'm worried too. Zhizhi has never left my side since she was little, and she's still a girl. So I can just go to the county town to pick her up every day."

He crossed his legs and said, "I happen to be going to the county town to deliver goods this morning. It's not too much trouble to take the child with me. I'll come back after I'm done and pick him up in the afternoon."

Qin Yan was listening on the side and only spoke at this moment.

"Uncle Fang, I think it takes too much time to walk like this. It's fine for a short time, but if my sister and I stay for a long time, especially when the weather gets cold, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to walk."

Fang Tong asked him what he thought.

"I think we should buy another ox to plow the fields and pull a cart. This way, we can use it when we go to the county town in the future. It would be suitable for us to buy it."

The room fell into silence.

Fang Tong certainly thought it was good to have a cow. If their family had a cow to pull a cart, it would be worth it at all. It could be used almost every day, and it would be even more suitable to give it to his son and daughter.

But he felt sorry for the money and couldn't bear to part with it.

These two children have just entered the academy. Apart from the tuition, they don’t know how much money they will need in the future.

Although he had never been educated, he had seen what Fang Jin was like. The pens, ink, paper and inkstone cost silver, and it was said that reading books was even more expensive. In addition, scholars were generally in the county town, and anything they did together would cost silver. If he didn't keep some money in his hands in advance, he would really feel uneasy.

The family now has some savings from doing business, but supporting a scholar is not a one- or two-day job, it takes years and months. Who can guarantee that we can always provide for him?

Fang Nanzhi looked at her father's frown and knew what he was thinking.

"Dad, stop being stingy. It's so nice to have a cow. Besides, you're going to farm, so isn't it better to have a cow?"

Yup!

Fang Tong's spirits lifted.

It's not just about pulling the cart, his family also has land that they don't have time to plant! Now the family is busy every day, and half of the people can't spare time to go out. If they have a cow and buy some farm tools later, it can help with a lot of work!

At this time, Qian Fengping also patted his arm from behind.

"Go ahead and buy it. I think the kids are right. We have enough going on right now. If you keep going to the county town every day, are you going to tire yourself out? What are you going to do with us then?"

These words were clearly spoken in a very firm tone, but Fang Tong felt soft-hearted when he heard them.
