Chapter 775 The villain of whitewashing (twenty-two)(1/2)
Zheng Du still kept his hands covering his face and squatting down with his legs.
He took advantage of the motion of getting up and rubbed his face vigorously.
Then, he stood in front of He Tiantian and said seriously: "Brother, I know you feel sorry for me, but I can't let you break the ancestral rules!"
"Our Zheng family's carpentry skills have been passed down to the eldest son for several generations. But you can't change the rules!"
"Not to mention our ancestors, even our father will not agree to it!"
"Also, we have a second brother and a third brother in our family. Regardless of whether they care about it or not, they still have to hold a bowl of water levelly!"
"You taught me carpentry, and my two brothers will definitely not be happy!"
"When our father left, he hoped that the four of us brothers could support and take care of each other. If the second brother and the third brother have a problem with the eldest brother because of me, it will really be my fault!"
Zheng Dutui gave a heart-to-heart explanation.
After hearing this, the people around couldn't help but nodded secretly:
Huh? This Zheng Laosi is really sensible.
Listen to what he said, every word makes sense.
They, farmers, cannot say that they are not worried about scarcity but about inequality.
But they know the truth.
Zheng Yu was the eldest son, established a family, inherited the family business, and supported his parents, so he was qualified to learn the ancestral craftsmanship of the Zheng family.
The other three sons, no matter how favored they are, cannot make an exception.
Now Zheng Yu feels sorry for his younger brother and wants to make an exception and give him his skills.
Everyone can understand that even brothers Zheng Qiao and Zheng Geng may not really want to learn carpentry.
However, they will feel uncomfortable in their hearts - it's not fair!
"...Oh, what can we do?"
He Tiantian looked panicked. She just wanted to take care of her younger brother, not to get into trouble with the other three younger brothers.
When she heard Zheng Du's careful analysis, she also became confused.
"Brother, I definitely can't learn carpentry!"
"But don't worry, I always have a way to support myself!"
Zheng Du raised his head slightly and said confidently, "God will not starve me to death. I can't do heavy work, but in this world, working in the fields is not the only way out!"
"...I can always think of a way. Besides, I still have a big brother. If I really can't do it, my big brother won't ignore me, right?"
In order to get the cheap brother to give up the idea of teaching craft work, Zheng Du really worked hard.
Even the words he least wanted to say, he had the courage to say.
It's so pitiful that he really doesn't want to get involved with the cheap brother, let alone bow to him.
"Yes! Yes! Why do I care about you? No care! I will always take care of you!"
He Tiantian nodded repeatedly.
She was finally coaxed by Zheng Du and no longer forced Zheng Du to learn carpentry work, nor did she persuade him to go home.
"Here, let me help you repair the roof——"
He Tiantian pushed Zheng Qi away, supported by Zheng Shu, and went up to help as he staggered.
Zheng Du was startled, "Brother, no need! I can do it myself!"
He already owed Zheng Du a debt of "selling his blood", and if he added the debt of "working hard", hey, it would be hard to repay the debts one after another.
His reputation alone is really difficult to clean up.
Even if he is cleansed, others will still remember Zheng Yu, the cheap brother, for his contribution to him.
In the days to come, if Zheng Du treats Zheng Yu even slightly badly, the world's saliva will drown him.
Zheng Du had no conflict of interest with Zheng Yu. In the past, he didn't want Zheng Yu to benefit from it, so he tried his best to cut off from Dafang.
However, with the matter of selling blood, Zheng Du knew that he and Zheng Yu were inseparable.
At least, he must "repay" Zheng Yu.
It is inevitable to let Zheng Yu take advantage of it and enjoy it with him.
However, there is a serious conflict of interest between Zheng Du and Zheng Qi.
Zheng Du wants to be the male protagonist. He must kill Zheng Qi and snatch his opponent's luck and aura.
Zheng Qi is Zheng Yu's biological son. If he is a difficult person, Zheng Yu will have moral flaws.
"Ma De, Zheng Yu is so good to his younger brother. He completely occupies the moral high ground!"
Thinking of this, Zheng Du couldn't help pinching his teeth.
But he couldn't resist, so he could only find ways to reduce this "family burden".
Zheng Du grabbed hold of Zheng Yu who was about to work, bit the bullet, and climbed onto the roof by himself.
Zheng Qi and Zheng Shu helped deliver the things, and other clan members couldn't help but help.
It's easy to get things done when there are a lot of people. In less than half a day, the dilapidated old house was tidied up.
He Tiantian didn't need Mrs. Wang to nag, so she took the initiative to ask Zheng Qi and Zheng Shu to run home and bring some food and daily necessities to Zheng Du.
Well, no surprise, it has won a lot of praise.
Zheng Du:……
He just went numb, okay?
The king-level brother-supporting demon, "Zheng Yu" is really not unjust!
Zheng Du was complaining crazily in his heart.
However, the only good thing is that after struggling for so long, he and Zheng Yu finally separated.
He can finally show off his talents according to his own plan!
Of course, before that, Zheng Du still has something to do——
"Brother! Big brother! Oh no, something happened!"
On this day, most of the people in the village, except for some old, weak, pregnant women and children, went to work.
Zheng Du sneaked to Zheng's house quietly.
He Tiantian was lying on the bed, pretending to be holding the handbook of the former official in his hand, but actually he was practicing secretly.
Suddenly hearing Zheng Du's voice, He Tiantian deliberately acted like she was frightened.
I thought to myself: It’s coming!
"Xiao Si'er, what happened? Did you encounter any difficulties?"
He Tiantian looked frightened and undecided, and her honest face was full of concern.
"It's not me! It's Zheng Qi!"
Zheng Du was sweating profusely and huffing and puffing, as if he had run for a long time.
His face was filled with eagerness and he wanted to say something, but he was a little hesitant.
Finally, he was so anxious that he stamped his feet and reached out to hold He Tiantian: "Oh, I can't tell!"
"Brother, you'd better come with me!"
With that said, Zheng Du used his hand to drag the cheap brother up from the kang.
"Oh, Xiao Si'er, what happened? You tell me!"
He Tiantian was at a loss, mixed with doubts and eagerness.
However, she did not struggle, but allowed Zheng Du to put on her shoes and pull her from the bed to the floor.
"It's too late! Brother, if you believe me, just follow me!"
Zheng Du deliberately created an anxious and mysterious atmosphere, frightening the cheap brother into a daze.
With almost no struggle, Brother Cheap followed him and ran out of Zhengjia Village, heading towards the railway on the other side.
"Xiao Si'er, what are you doing here?"
He Tiantian was still puzzled.
"Oh, brother, don't worry, just watch from here!"
Not long after, a train came clang-dang-dang from the other end of the track.
He Tiantian and Zheng Du hid in the grass nearby and watched the trains passing by.
Suddenly, two little heads popped out of a cargo compartment.
Immediately afterwards, two half-year-old boys climbed out of the cargo compartment with familiarity and dexterity.
