Chapter 3 Concession
When Wen Liuniang and her daughter were walking home, Tao Qingyao said with red eyes: "Mom, don't you really think Tao Qingbi is too fat?"
Wen Liuniang really didn't think Tao Qingbi was fat. Even in front of her daughter, she couldn't deny it.
She actually likes fair and chubby children. She looks blessed when she looks at them, and everyone who sees them will be happy with this child.
What's more, Tao Qingbi really has good looks. She has big eyes and can smile at everyone.
A few days ago, the news that she was not recovering from her illness had just spread. After the old man of the Ying family heard about it, he didn't even need Tao Zuoran and his wife to come to ask for help. He took the words of the person next to him and took the initiative to visit the child.
Wen Liu Niang knew that her daughter was allowed to be a little willful by her family members. She always followed her daughter's wishes when it came to small things. But when it came to big things, she would still think more about her daughter and was willing to break things up and talk to her.
Talk about the interests involved.
Wen Liu Niang was thinking about things, and her mind suddenly drifted away.
"Mom, do you also like that fat girl?" Tao Qingyao kept mumbling. At first Wen Liu Niang would respond to her with a few words, but then she stopped replying. Tao Qingyao turned around and saw Wen Liu Niang's thoughtful look on her face.
His expression became a little angry.
She stopped and stamped her feet. Wen Liu Niang quickly looked around and said angrily: "Yao'er, you are old now. You have to pay attention to your manners when you are outside. You can't just follow your temper like you did when you were a child. I have been listening to you.
.”
Tao Qingyao immediately didn't dare to stamp her feet. After seeing this, Wen Liuniang felt relieved and coaxed: "You took Niuniu out and she came back sick. Your uncle's family are all good-tempered people and they didn't say anything bad.
.But the people in our family can't be too ignorant in dealing with others.
You have to be a good sister now, and when you have time in the future, go to your uncle's shop more often to coax her, and let the people around you know that you are a virtuous and generous person."
Tao Qingyao was a little unconvinced at first and didn't want to coax the child, but after looking at the look on Wen Liu Niang's face, she suddenly understood and lowered her head with a bit of shyness. At her current age, she has a lot of experience.
With good reputation, you will also have good choices for marriage in the future.
Wen Liu Niang understood her daughter when she saw it, and felt that her daughter was like herself at heart, very smart and aware of current affairs.
She and Tao Qingyao talked in low voices as they walked, and from time to time they smiled and greeted the neighbors passing by, and mentioned the good news that Tao Qingbi was well.
That night, the second room of the Tao family was busy, and the children had all returned home. The brothers gathered around Tao Qingbi, thinking of ways to make the sister happy. The younger brother would also be next to Tao Qingbi, trying his best to say: "
Sister, be good."
Tao Qingbi reached out and touched the heads of her brothers and praised them: "Be good, you are better than your sister."
In the evening, Tao Yongneng smiled and said to Ping Sanshun: "Now I understand why my eldest brother and sister-in-law love Yao'er so much?"
Ping Sanshun used to love her grandniece Tao Qingyao, but after Tao Qingbi's illness, her feelings for her grandniece faded away.
"When there are many grandchildren in the family, they will naturally love their granddaughters more. After Niu Niu was born, Yao'er still liked Niu Niu as a younger sister at first. Later, when she got older and heard the gossip outside, she was not so fond of Niu Niu.
like.
After Niu Niu was born, the people in our room were a little partial to Niu Niu. But I don’t think there is anything wrong with this. The eldest brother and sister-in-law also prefer Yao’er."
Tao Yongneng stopped talking for a moment. Because of Niuniu's little name, Tao Qingyao made the two houses uneasy, but they finally went along with her wishes.
Tao Yongneng sighed silently in his heart. Before his father passed away, he repeatedly told him that only if brothers work together, the Tao family will continue to prosper.
Tao Yongneng remembered his father's instructions and always asked his three sons to obey his grandfather's instructions and treat his uncle's family sincerely.
Seeing that he had stopped speaking, Ping Sanshun thought for a while and sighed: "I understand your thoughts and your thoughts. You think that your brother and sister-in-law only have one son, your nephew, and they cannot support a family on their own.
Now my nephew has five sons and one daughter, and my niece-in-law is still young, so she can continue to have more children. Now we also have ten grandchildren and one granddaughter. If the grandchildren want to study, there cannot be another middle child among them.
Back then our family's Ran'er was very good at reading. How could our family not be able to afford a scholar? Father Liang'er? You are also a father and a grandfather. Think about it carefully."
Tao Yongneng had a look of helplessness on his face. After looking at it, Ping Sanshun couldn't bear to turn his head away. Then he turned to look at Tao Yongneng with a firm look on his face: "We have separated our families. Now who dares to block the future of my grandchildren?
I will make life difficult for other people."
Tao Yongneng got up without saying a word and went to the inner room. Ping Sanshun sighed and followed him, saying in a low voice: "If the children can read, as long as their parents are willing to support them in reading, we can let them continue to read.
"
Tao Yongneng didn't say anything, and Ping Sanshun felt relieved. At least he didn't object out loud.
The couple were talking, and their eldest son Tao Zuoliang and his wife were also talking about the children studying at home.
"My younger brother told me that if there are no difficulties at home, let Cheng'er study for a few more years. He said that if the second brother studies for a few more years, he will be more knowledgeable than the average person."
Tao Zuoliang looked at his wife, Sister Ji Ba, and said, "Don't listen to the gossips of women outside. We brothers all want our children to have a future. After we separated, our brothers told our parents that if we took over jobs outside in the future, we would go to the public school to pay for them."
Five percent.
In this way, as long as the children want to study in the future, we will have money on hand to keep them reading.”
Sister Ji Ba looked at him and sighed: "This is the result of the discussion between the second brother and your brothers, right? It's a pity that you were too young back then. Otherwise, we could have a scholar in this room who can walk outside, and others can
I am willing to give your brothers some face."
"You and I can talk whatever you want, but don't go to the second brother's house and gossip like this. Life in the family was not easy in the past. The second brother was studying well, but no one knew whether he could be surrendered.
My second brother told me that it was a good thing that he did not continue to study. Otherwise, no matter whether he could succeed in reading or not, the eldest brother would use the family's hard work to support his study as an excuse and demand more from our room.
My father has always respected my great uncles and aunts. When we, the younger generation, encounter the issue of our eldest brother, what can we say except give in?"
Sister Ji Ba thought of the behavior of her father-in-law and mother-in-law and sighed: "This time, we all know that Yao'er took Niu Niu out and frightened Niu Niu, which is why she got such a disease.
My uncle and aunt came to see Niuniu. They didn’t say anything. As juniors, it’s not convenient for us to say anything. But my cousins knew clearly what their daughter was doing, and they didn’t say anything to her second brother or sister-in-law. It was too much.
