Chapter 677 The warmth and indifference of the folks
During the twelfth lunar month, affected by the ice, the Tianjin Port Area became quite deserted, and the market conditions on the stock exchange also became somewhat bleak due to this.
Jiang Yitao took advantage of this opportunity and asked for a few days off from the exchange to return to his hometown in Hejian to pick up his parents. From Tianjin to Hejian, he could take a rail car directly to Cangzhou, then pick up a carriage there and rush to Hejian.
Home in the countryside.
In order to show that it valued Jiang Yitao, the exchange specially sent two helpers to follow Jiang Yitao back to his hometown to help him move and pick up his parents.
It took less than two days for Jiang Yitao to arrive in Cangzhou with two gangs. At the station, he discussed the price with the driver who stopped the work, and asked him to take the carriage to his home in the suburbs of Hejian Fucheng.
The carriage traveled for a day and did not arrive at Jiang Yitao's hometown village until evening.
It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, and idle people gathered together in the stockyard at the entrance of the village, chatting and passing the time.
"Look at the carriage entering the village. It's a carriage with a high shed and a big roof. It must be a rich person. I don't know whose home it is going to." After the idlers saw the carriage, they started to talk. The carriage with a shed roof,
It is rare in the village, and even if it is hired for money, few people will spend this money. Hiring a covered carriage from the city to the countryside is not cheap.
Jiang Yitao also saw the group of idlers, but he did not get out of the car. His younger brother, who was still in school, had written to him and told him many things about his family and his neighbors. Because he did not graduate from university and could not enter the government, his family and his villagers now
The relationship between neighbors is very tense.
"Which carriage seems to be going to the Jiang family?" Some people saw that the direction of the carriage was the direction of the Jiang family and quickly exclaimed.
The conditions of the Jiang family are considered to be of the upper class in the village. The courtyard house occupies a relatively large area and the road there is obvious. If the conditions of the Jiang family were too poor, it would not be possible for a college student like Jiang Yitao to be born.
"Going to the Jiang family? I don't know how many relatives they are. The Jiang family does have high-ranking relatives."
"Could he be the boss of the fourth room? I heard from the wife of the fourth room of the Jiang family that their boss is making a lot of money in Tianjin." Someone in the crowd said his guess in a mocking tone.
"Hmph! What kind of mother-in-law are you talking about? Xiao Taozi didn't cherish going to college. As a result, he failed the exam and dropped out of his studies. Not only did he fail to become an official, he didn't even get the job of uterine delivery.
His future is ruined. Can he still go to Tianjin to make a lot of money? Is money so easy to earn? I guess he just works as a bookkeeper and earns a few taels of silver dollars a month. What the hell, is he looking for face and coaxing for his son?
They belong to our village."
The money earned by an ordinary accountant is not low. Among the villagers, he must be considered a high-income class. But in the eyes of these idle people, the little money earned by the accountant is nothing. Having said that, if Jiang Yitao is really
Working as an accountant is indeed a big gap from people's previous expectations of him.
"He is also a kid who ruined his promising future. When he was admitted to college, my family even gave him eggs. It was all for nothing."
"Qi Mazi, your eggs are not given away for free. When your eldest son got married this year, the fourth head of the Jiang family gave you a favor of 20 yuan. How much is an egg worth? Is this happening?
Why return the favor!"

While the idlers were chatting, Jiang Yitao's hired car had already arrived at the door of his house. In the Jiang family's courtyard, several people lived together. In the second half of this year, the old Jiang family brothers separated their homes, but they still lived in the same courtyard.
A carriage came to the door, and the children in the Jiang family's yard had already rushed to the door, and a few adults came out. They thought some of their relatives had come to visit during the twelfth lunar month.
But when they saw Jiang Yitao coming out of the carriage, the expressions of the adults and children instantly changed. There was really an unexpected person coming.
"Aunt, Second Mom, how are you doing at home?" Jiang Yitao greeted the two elders at the door.
"Tao baby? Why are you willing to come?" Jiang Yitao's second aunt reacted quickly and was the first to strike up a conversation.
"I have been relatively busy at the institute recently, so I took leave and returned to my hometown. I heard from Xiaobin that my parents would have no place to live, so I took them to Tianjin to settle down." Jiang Yitao has nothing to do with these relatives now.
manner.
The Jiang family had not been separated for a long time, so why did they separate in the middle of the year? I heard the news that Jiang Yitao was out of school, and felt that he had no future, and they would not get any glory if they got together.
The separation was even more extreme. On the grounds that Jiang Yitao and Jiang Yibin, the eldest son of the fourth family who had just entered junior high school, were studying together, they deprived the four families of the Jiang family of their right to divide the family property. Only Jiang Yitao's father was given the right to do so.
Mom was divided into two side houses and several fields that could not be watered.
Recently, this group of people has gone too far. They said that since Jiang Yitao was making a lot of money outside, he would move out of the side room in the yard and build the yard by himself. The wood in the side room could be dismantled and taken away. For this matter, Jiang Yitao's mother and several
The sisters not only quarreled, but also fought.
"Tao Wa seems to have made a lot of money, and the first thing he wanted to do was to take his parents away to enjoy the blessings! Our uncles and aunts really wasted their efforts back then, and in the end we couldn't get any glory. Fortunately.
You didn't become a Shangguan, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get the job, and we might even get sued." Jiang Yitao's aunt reacted at this moment and started to fight Jiang Yitao at the door.
This is how family relationships are. Once there is a crack, it will hurt the person more than others.
"How many families are here? This is the gift I bought for you. One for each family. You can share it. By the way, this big one is for grandma. Uncle, please take it over. I won't go to each family.
Now, I have to be busy moving with my parents and the others." During the commotion, everyone in the Jiang family courtyard came out. Jiang Yitao was not in the mood to continue the quarrel, so he directly moved the gifts he brought from the carriage and piled them up for
Everyone, let them get it by themselves, and then went straight to their houses with two helpers and the carriage driver to welcome their parents and younger brother.
By the way,,,..version.]
As for whether they will accept gifts, it depends on them. As long as they are willing to do so, they don't have to accept these gifts. The gifts Jiang Yitao brought are very expensive, each worth about two taels of silver dollars. For country people, they are
The most noble gift among noble gifts.
"Brother Tao, why did you start a quarrel with them when you first came here?" After entering her narrow hut, Jiang Yitao's mother talked about her son.
"People are blocking the door and making noise. What can you do? I know how they bully you in the past half year or so. There is no need to give a good face."

"Your mother and I are being bullied, is it because you are not living up to expectations? You have ruined our good future, how can we still have the dignity to survive?" Jiang Yitao's father, puffing his beard and staring, questioned his son. He will tell what happened to him.
Everything is attributed to his son's failure.
"Dad, what's the use of arguing now? Can I decide whether to drop out of school? According to me, dropping out of school is a good opportunity to see the faces of our relatives and friends clearly and let me live a new life. Neither you nor mother
I couldn't let go of this matter, so I quickly packed it up and moved our family to live in Tianjin city. I bought a building there with seven bedrooms, which is spacious enough for our family to live in. "
