Farming and reading family

Now the people of Baotou Village are sincerely grateful to the Chen family, or to Gao E to be exact, so Gao E’s affairs are the village’s affairs, and no one will neglect them.

Chen Fan didn't believe it. Even if he dug three feet into the ground and sold everything, he wouldn't let the villagers live like this.

Guo Dafu looked at Chen Fancai with a look of disbelief and ignored him.

They still remember what Chen Fancai had done before. If he provokes Gao E and his wife again, don't blame them for being rude.

"Dad, what are you going to say to them?" Chen Baolai said impatiently.

Chen Fancai didn't want to say it, mainly because he didn't know where his brother's family lived: "Where does my brother live?"

"Look, the family inside is now living with their eldest son." Guo Dafu pointed.

Chen Fancai asked someone to drive the carriage.

When he came back, he thought that even if the villagers came down from the caves, they would be lucky enough to have a shack to live in. They would be so envious of him.

Who would have thought that every family would have a brick house, wear new cotton-padded clothes, and even gain weight?

When the people in Batou Village saw Chen Fancai coming back with a crowd of people following him, they just took a look.

If you say that their village has seen everything in the past two years, people wearing shiny armor can only stay outside the village.

Chen Fancai looked at the people basking in the sun in the village. Many of them were bringing their children. The children were all chubby and it was obvious that they were well-fed.

Gao E heard that Chen Fancai had just returned and had not gone out, and thought that there was trouble.

When that family was away, Chen Ke's father was thinking about adding them to the family tree. Now that they are back, he will definitely talk about it again.

Chen Fancai arrived at the door of Chen Qing's house and looked around carefully. Although it was not as big as his previous house, it was well built.

He had wanted to come back to show off before, and when he saw the situation in the village, he thought he had to find out what was going on. If there were any benefits, he would also have a share of it.

Although what I am doing now is quite profitable, it is not presentable.

"Be polite when you meet your uncle later." Chen Fancai reminded his son.

"Why should we be polite to them?" Chen Baolai said indifferently, "Didn't Dad say he would just come back for a look and leave? I saw at the village entrance..."

"Shut up!" Chen Fancai scolded.

Chen Baolai shut up unconvinced.

Thinking of the humiliation he had suffered at his uncle's house before, Chen Baolai just wanted to humiliate them properly. How could he be polite to them?

"Your uncle's family is doing well now. We should ask how they made their fortune." Chen Fancai said in a low voice.

Chen Baolai perked up when he heard this: "Then what are we waiting for?"

Before the two men got off the carriage, Chen Fansheng came out. Seeing that his brother was still alive, Chen Fansheng looked excited.

Seeing him moving with difficulty using a cane, he felt guilty, thinking that he, as his brother, had not taken good care of him.

"Brother!" Chen Fancai called out excitedly.

"Hey, hey, I'm glad you're back." Chen Fansheng responded with tears in his eyes, "Go home quickly, go home quickly." He helped Chen Fan into the yard.

Chen Baolai followed behind with disgust in his eyes. In order to come back this time, he even bought new clothes for the servants. He didn't come back to live in love with them.

But looking at the rows of brick houses, he was really envious.

"Why has Baolai lost so much weight?" Chen Fansheng glanced at Chen Baolai who was following behind him.

Chen Fancai sighed, "We went out and found a job. Although we made some money, it was a job that required you to look up to other people. The child suffered a lot in the beginning."

Chen Fansheng felt distressed when he heard this: "Then we won't go this time when we come back."

"How can I not go?" Chen Fan responded as his elder brother glanced at the yard without leaving any trace. It seemed that his elder brother was doing really well. "Now my family has no house or land in the village. How can we survive?"

After hearing what Chen Fancai said, Chen Fansheng was silent for a moment: "I'll find a way."

He originally wanted to ask the second son's family to return the land to them, but the second son's wife was not someone to be trifled with, and if things started to go wrong, Fan Cai would have a hard time staying in the village.

I need to discuss this matter with the second brother first.

"Entering the yard." Lianxin looked through the crack in the door and saw Chen Fancai and his family follow Chen Fansheng into the yard.

"Let's go." Gao E felt a bit like a thief, so she took Lu Qingluo out.

The two men rode to Qingtan Gorge and saw Du Weiqing sitting there chatting with the craftsmen and laughing heartily.

"Mr. Du, you look very happy." Gao E greeted with a smile.

"When three people walk together, there must be one person who can teach me something. Learning something new every day naturally makes me excited," Du Weiqing said with a smile.

Gao E saw that Du Weiqing no longer felt tired. "Where's my husband?"

"Studying inside." Du Weiqing waved to Gao E.

Gao E and Lu Qingluo dismounted and entered Qingtan Gorge.

Chen Ke has been studying very hard recently and has made a lot of progress.

Gao E heard Chen Ke reciting and did not interrupt him. She stood outside the tent and listened to him until he finished reciting before calling out.

When Chen Ke heard his wife coming, he hurried out to greet her: "Madam, why don't you just come in?"

"I heard my husband was reading and couldn't bear to interrupt him." Gao E sat down with a smile.

Chen Ke was a little embarrassed: "It's cold outside. Madam, you can just come in next time. If I remember it well, it's okay to interrupt. If I don't remember it well, I will have to read it several times."

"Yes." Gao E nodded. "Second uncle and his family are back."

Chen Ke was stunned, as if he didn't hear clearly what Gao E said.

Gao E didn't repeat herself: "He came back in a big carriage, surrounded by servants. It's obvious that he made a lot of money outside."

Chen Ke finally reacted and thought that after the family had a good life, his father always talked about his second uncle's family. Now that his second uncle's family has returned and is doing well, his father should be relieved.

"Very good." Chen Ke nodded.

Gao E looked at Chen Ke: "I think it's good too, but I still remember clearly what my second uncle's family did in the past. If they come back just to take a look, I won't say anything. If it's the same as before..."

Chen Ke's heart skipped a beat: "You said that Second Uncle's family is doing well, so he must have just come back to visit."

Gao E looked at Chen Ke's reaction and knew that he was also somewhat concerned about Chen Fancai's family: "I guess I'm just overthinking it. Now that Zhengyan and the others are grown up, I must think more about the children."

"Don't worry, my lady. If my second uncle's family continues to be the same as before, I won't care about that little bit of family affection." Chen Ke said hurriedly.

Gao E laughed and said, "I've been busy lately, so my words might be a little harsh. Please bear with me when the time comes."

Chen Ke nodded: "Everything at home is thanks to my wife."

"I don't want to see my second uncle's family either. It would be bad if we talked about the past and got embarrassed." Gao E said embarrassedly.

"Okay." Chen Ke also knew that his second uncle's family was not easy to talk to. "When Dad calls us, we'll just go and greet them. We won't talk too much."

Hearing Chen Ke say this, Gao E felt relieved: "Then my husband will study first, and I will go back first. My husband, don't work too hard, and take care of yourself."
