The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Tang Yichen said calmly, "It's too early to talk about this now. As you can all see, I still have a lot of things to deal with at home. I really don't have the energy to think about those things. Let's talk about the future later!"

When everyone heard Tang Yichen say this, they remembered the troubles in his family.

No matter how good Tang Yichen's circumstances were, his father was a coward, his stepmother was restless, his family was broke, his sister-in-law was young, and his brother was a sickly child. If a relative's daughter were to marry him, it wouldn't be marriage, but an enemy. Forget it, being a scholar wasn't much of a good thing. Regardless of whether he could pass the exam, even if he did, the whole family would have to work together to support him. By the time he did pass, the whole family would have been dragged down.

For example, Mr. Wang from the next village passed the imperial examination at the age of 40. He did not give up and spent another ten years taking the imperial examination. As a result, he failed the examination after ten years and even his old wife was worn out to death.

After the villagers left, Tang Yichen walked into the yard and closed the door.

At this time, Tang Dafu was still sitting on the ground. When Tang Yichen came in, Tang Dafu lowered his head in shame, looking ashamed and embarrassed.

Tang Dafu had grown increasingly intimidated by his eldest son in recent years. However, he rarely interfered with Tang Dafu's affairs, and usually stayed away from school, allowing the two to maintain a superficial parent-child relationship.

Tang Yichen walked over and picked up Tang Dafu.

Princess hug.

Qin Huiyin watched from the side with a strange expression, and turned her head away so that others would not see her distorted expression.

"What's wrong?" Li Taohua noticed her abnormality and asked.

Qin Huiyin shook her head gently, lowered her head and said, "Nothing, I'm just thinking about how to make this money."

The scene was so jarring that she was worried she wouldn't be able to control her laughter. If she burst out laughing in such a serious scene, her whole family would think she was mad.

"Tang Yichen, what do you say we should do?" Li Taohua immediately challenged Tang Yichen when Qin Huiyin mentioned the silver. "As the eldest son of the Tang family, you should share your father's worries."

Tang Yichen put Tang Dafu on a stool.

He sat down next to him and looked at Tang Dafu calmly: "You were in a coma for a few days after the accident. I was busy during that time, and I went back to the private school when I saw that your life was not in danger. This was my negligence, my mistake. I should have figured out the whole story earlier and made preparations in advance, and I wouldn't be controlled by others like I am now."

Tang Dafu stared blankly at his eldest son in front of him.

He was only fourteen years old, but he was mature beyond his years. The dignity between his brows made his father feel as if he was being taught a lesson by his 'father'.

No, even when facing his own father, he has never been so cowardly.

Tang Yichen was in the process of voice change, and his pretentious demeanor made people feel strange. However, the Tang family had long been accustomed to looking for the eldest brother when they had problems, so being taught a lesson by him was just as it should be.

"Dad, tell me in detail how you had an argument with someone, got injured, and borrowed money to treat your injury!" Tang Yichen said.

Tang Dafu glanced at Li Taohua and said guiltily, "I was working at the Chen Family Dyeing Mill. I was originally a temporary worker, but because I performed well, the manager promoted me to a full-time employee. That day, I was working as usual, and my colleague Su Li damaged the freshly dyed cloth. I said a few words to him, and he started arguing with me. Somehow, we came to blows. I broke Su Li's head, and Su Li pushed me, and the wooden cloth drying rack next to me fell on me, hitting my leg."

"It was a chaotic time. I couldn't feel anything but pain... Later, the manager and Boss Chen came. They called a doctor, who said Su Li had a brain injury and would become an idiot if he couldn't be cured. As for me, my leg was badly injured, and I was weak and had lost too much blood. I had to take ginseng to prolong my life. Boss Chen asked me if I wanted to prolong my life, and of course I said yes. Boss Chen said it would cost fifty taels of silver. I was in so much pain, and I didn't want to die, so I took whatever they said. While the doctor was treating my leg, I was in so much pain that I almost fainted. They brought me something to drink, saying it was ginseng soup..."

Tang Yichen listened silently. After Tang Dafu finished speaking, he said calmly, "I understand."

"What are you going to do?" Li Taohua said, "If you had come back a little earlier, you would have seen how they forced us. They also forced my Yinyin to sign a document. If she doesn't pay fifty taels of silver within a month, she will be taken away by them. That old pervert is so old, and he still has his eyes on my daughter. Tang Yichen, this is your father's fault. Don't even think about getting my daughter into trouble."

"Since you married my father, you are his wife. Aren't you afraid that my father will be heartbroken if you cut off ties with him at this time?" Tang Yichen said coldly.

"I am marrying your father, but I agreed with him at the beginning that I can't stand hardship or grievance, and my daughter is the same. So if you have any trouble, don't look for me and my daughter. I married him with my daughter not to suffer with him." Li Taohua said confidently.

Tang Yichen looked at Tang Dafu with a sarcastic look, as if to say: This is the woman you have always wanted to marry.

Tang Dafu's face turned red.

He knew what kind of woman Li Taohua was before he married her. Ever since his leg injury, Li Taohua had never treated him well and had even considered leaving him several times. He knew all of this.

But he just fell in love with her.

He only hated himself for not being able to give her a good life.

She followed Song Yi at first, but she never suffered any injustice. If Song Yi hadn't died, how could it be his turn?

But he is too useless and a drag on the family.

"There's a young, tall, thin fellow next to Chen Zhongyi. When he handed me the document today, I noticed his handwriting was identical to Uncle Tang's IOU."

Tang Yichen looked at Qin Huiyin.

Qin Huiyin said, "If you want to find out the details, you can start with him."

"How did you know I wanted to get to the bottom of this?"

"You asked so many questions in such detail, it's impossible that you are suddenly curious, right?" Qin Huiyin said, "If we want to resolve this matter now, we can either work hard to make money and pay back the fifty taels of silver. Even if this is a setup, we have no other evidence to prove ourselves, so we can only admit it. Or we can find out the truth about this matter and prove that everything is a setup by Boss Chen. The fifty taels of silver is extortion and does not need to be paid back. There is another possibility. After investigation, it is found that Chen Zhongyi did pay fifty taels of silver, and the ginseng is indeed worth fifty taels of silver. Uncle Tang's injury also requires this ginseng, so we will compensate according to the price. But from what we have seen today, the third possibility is unlikely."

This was the first time Tang Yichen looked at Qin Huiyin so seriously.

She is very calm.

Even though this matter involved her, she remained so calm, as if she was sure that it would not be difficult for her.
