Chapter three hundred and thirteenth
Tao Yongneng's original words contained some emotion, but now listening to his granddaughter's words, he thinks that Tao Qingyao is much older than her granddaughter and she has never treated her granddaughter kindly.
Now that her life is not going well and she has little to do with others, why should he force his granddaughter to understand his married grandniece.
Tao Yongneng felt a little more comfortable, with a smile on his face: "Niuniu, during the holidays, you still have to go to the eldest house to pay tribute to your great-grandfather and great-grandmother, do you understand?"
Tao Weiyun and Tao Qingbi exchanged glances, and Tao Qingbi smiled and said, "I know. Grandpa, I will follow my parents to the eldest house to pay respects to the elders during holidays."
At noon, Tao Yongneng went home to rest. Tao Weiyun and Tao Qingbi whispered: "When grandpa talks to us about the eldest brother's house in the future, we will deal with it with words first. But we can't refuse grandpa directly. Do you understand?"
Tao Qingbi nodded understandingly, but then said quickly: "Second brother, my grandfather is not someone who can be easily fooled. If he asks me to have friendly relations with my cousin, I won't be able to show my cousin's cold face."
"You have made it clear this time that you will no longer have friendly relations with your cousin. My grandfather will not talk to you about this matter again. We can handle other things."
Her maternal grandparents lent the family money to the eldest brother to buy a shop, forcing the eldest son to make the decision to divide the younger brothers, so that the family would not be dragged down by the selfless parents to the point where they would not be able to save a few coins after a lifetime of hard work.
.
After comparing many people and things, you will feel that your own things are actually far better than the best. At least my great-grandfather's family would not do such immoral things.
Tao Qingbi whispered to Tao Weiyun about her grandfather's support for her brother. After hearing this, he was surprised and said: "So that's it. No wonder the second aunt didn't mention the people and affairs of her parents' family. Our grandfather takes care of the great grandfather, and he won't care about the family."
The silver was given to my great-grandfather."
"Second brother, my uncles have already been separated.
My brother-in-law told my mother a few days ago that when my eldest uncle becomes the head of the family, their family will not earn much, which is only enough for the family. My grandfather and grandmother feel pity for my eldest grandfather's family, and they don't have any money to give away.
Already."
Tao Weiyun looked at the expression on Tao Qingbi's face, thought about some things about his family, and said to Tao Qingbi: "Niuniu, my grandfather comes to the shop every day, so he has no intention of growing up.
These days, if you meet customers who are interested in carving goods, please mention your grandfather's superb craftsmanship in front of others."
Tao Qingbi looked at him and shook her head: "Let nature take its course. My grandfather's exquisite carving skills don't require me to say good things in front of the guests. Those who know the art naturally understand the rareness of my grandfather's craftsmanship. Those who don't understand can't say anything.
There are too many, and they don’t know how to appreciate it.”
In the afternoon, Tao Qingbi bought another big spinning wheel and a Kang table. When Tao Weiyun went to the warehouse to move the big spinning wheel, he said to Tao Qingbi: "Niuniu, we already have a good spinning wheel at home, but it is more refined than the current big spinning wheel."
Some."
"Second brother, first sell all the big spinning wheels in the warehouse, and then bring new big spinning wheels from home. The newly made big spinning wheels will be exquisite and the price will be higher."
Tao Weiyun agreed with Tao Qingbi's opinion. Their store rarely kept any second-hand goods, and most of the goods would be sold before the end of the year.
The younger brother of the An family sent a batch of bamboo wares to the shop. After Tao Qingbi looked at the goods, she said to him: "Uncle, my grandfather no longer makes bamboo wares?"
"Do it. The things he makes are sent to your great-grandfather's shop, and the things made by your uncles and cousins are sent to your home for consignment."
After the An family's younger brother said a few words to his niece, he hurried to the second room of the Tao family. Tao Yongneng and Tao Weiyun came out of the backyard and saw the bamboo wares piled up in the shop.
Tao Yongneng looked outside the shop: "Niuniu, your brother-in-law left so soon."
Tao Qingbi organized her things and put the many goods aside. Tao Weiyun conveniently carried them to the backyard warehouse and put them away.
Tao Yongneng looked at the things in the shop and then at the carving work in his hands. After Tao Weiyun came back and sat down, he said to him: "Yun'er, I think you still need to learn to do some bamboo work. You don't have to worry about too many skills.
As long as it is used, it is a good thing."
Tao Weiyun smiled bitterly and said: "Grandpa, let me practice carpentry and carving first. Being greedy for too much is not a good thing."
Tao Yongneng no longer forced his grandson. He was somewhat interested himself and said to Tao Weiyun: "I am old and my hands are not as strong as when I was young. I have seen others weaving bamboo utensils before.
I went back and told your father that I also bought some bamboo at home. If I have time, I will also try to make bamboo work."
Tao Weiyun looked at the expression on Tao Qingbi's face and said with a smile: "Okay, grandpa, when we have free time, my grandpa and I will learn to make bamboo work."
Tao Qingbi looked at the sky outside and remembered the faint smile on the face of the An family brother. She turned back and said to Tao Yongneng: "Grandpa, I have to tell my grandfather any bamboo utensils I want in the future."
"Hahaha, Niuniu, do you believe in your grandfather's ability so much?"
Tao Qingbi nodded affirmatively: "As long as grandpa is willing to try to do bamboo work, he will definitely do well."
The three of them, grandfather and grandson, were very happy. The younger brother of the An family went to the second room of the Tao family. When he talked to An Erzhi, there was no such joy between the siblings.
"Little brother, what do you mean by dad, you can't force your uncle to ask for the loaned money?"
The younger brother of the An family sighed: "My eldest brother persuaded my mother, and my mother told my father that life at home is not easy. My nephews have children. In the future, my great-grandchildren will need money to study.
Dad said that he could not force his brother to death. What's more, the eldest brother had divided his sons one by one at that time. He already had a good plan in his heart. If he had the ability, he would also divide it among his sons.
Home.
Second sister, I think the eldest brother intends to separate the families for his sons, but the sister-in-law is unwilling, so this matter is still being postponed for the time being."
An Erzhi looked at the expression on the An family's younger brother's face and said, "How confident are you that you will come to the city school to become a master?"
"After the New Year, let's take a look at the situation. Now I've just heard some news. Others haven't traveled yet, and there may be changes. After all, we are the breadwinners of our families, so we can't be as willful as before we got married."
An Erzhi glanced at him and whispered: "I still have some money in my hand. If you need it, just tell me."
"Second sister, when the family was separated, the eldest brother still thought about us. Our family can still live well now.
Next year, if I can go to a school in the city and become a master, my family's life will only be even better."
