Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 101: Birds Also Gossip

Wei Laosan didn't understand what his eldest brother meant and was a little confused.

Knowing that his third brother was always clueless, the eldest brother Wei simply said, "You, me, and the fourth brother are all my sons. With all three of us sons here, you're not afraid of being stabbed in the back by letting Jing Yuan, the grandson whose father has died, take care of me."

"From now on... no, it should be from the day we split up, all matters concerning Mom will be decided by the three of us brothers, big or small. Jing Yuan will not be involved."

Raising a son is a way to provide for one's old age, and it is natural for a son to take care of his mother. However, when a son is still around, it is unacceptable to let a grandson take care of his grandmother.

What's more, there are three brothers in their family.

"Why? Second brother is also mother's son, Jingyuan is second brother's son, second brother's responsibilities should be transferred to Jingyuan. Now that second brother is dead, Jingyuan must take care of his grandmother." Wei Lao San refuted righteously.

"Your second brother is dead." Boss Wei reminded in a cold voice.

"Of course I know that my second brother is dead. Big brother, you don't have to remind me again and again." Wei Lao San had an expression that said, "Big brother, are you annoying?"

"Okay, okay." Boss Wei laughed in anger. "You want Jing Yuan to take care of our mother, fine. You, me, and the fourth brother can all call our sons back to help look after our mother."

Wei Lao San immediately shouted, "Why? I'm at home, why should my sons come back to take care of me?"

"Because your sons and Jing Yuan are of the same generation, and they all call me grandma." Boss Wei almost shouted these words.

Although Boss Wei likes to calculate and take advantage of others, he will not shirk his responsibilities. In this respect, Boss Wei is more clear-headed than Wei Lao San, who is confused.

Wei Lao San frowned, as if he understood something. He asked, "But, wasn't our family always like this?"

When his second brother was alive, they relied on him while bullying his family, and when things went wrong, they asked him to take the blame. After his second brother died, they relied on Wei Jingyuan while bullying Wei Jingyuan and his two siblings. When things went wrong...

Nothing has happened yet, but I'm used to bullying my second brother's family.

"You said it was in the past too." Boss Wei looked at his third brother and said earnestly, "Third brother, I know what we did in the past, and Jing Yuan knows it too."

"Jing Yuan doesn't care about us and is willing to tolerate us, we can do whatever we want. But if Jing Yuan is unwilling to tolerate us, we must be careful about the limits, otherwise..."

Boss Wei didn't explain the rest of the words clearly because he himself was not sure what Jing Yuan would do if he could no longer tolerate them.

"Otherwise what?" Wei Lao San asked.

"Why do you think Tao Qiuyi dared to treat us like this?" Boss Wei asked instead of answering.

Wei Lao San replied without hesitation: "Because she is strong, we can't beat her. Because she has a bad temper and is unreasonable, we can't scold her."

He actually thought so. His third brother was really... Boss Wei just felt so tired. It was obviously Jing Yuan who condoned Tao Qiuyi, so Tao Qiuyi dared to attack them, the elders.

Not wanting to talk to him anymore, Boss Wei turned around and left.

Wei Laosan, who was left there inexplicably, stared blankly at his eldest brother's leaving back with a confused look on his face.

the other side.

Tao Qiuyi and Wei Jingyuan were walking back. Wei Jingyuan walked a little slower because he was using a cane. Tao Qiuyi didn't rush him, nor did she complain about his slow pace, nor did she help him walk.

As she walked, she picked common herbs on the roadside, sometimes walking in front and sometimes falling behind.

After picking a herb, Tao Qiuyi looked back and saw that Wei Jingyuan was still behind. He suddenly regretted not asking Uncle Li to rent a ox cart.

"Or, I'll go back to the brigade and ask Uncle Li to pick you up in a ox cart." Tao Qiuyi suggested. Wei Jingyuan walked by himself when he came here, and he would definitely be tired if he walked again when he goes back.

"No, I can walk back by myself." Wei Jingyuan refused calmly.

His damn self-esteem and his damn unwillingness to trouble others. Tao Qiuyi gritted his teeth secretly, snorted and stopped trying to persuade him, but continued to pick herbs.

Soon she had gathered a small pile, but her arms were too full to move, unable to continue. Wei Jingyuan was there, and fearing he would become suspicious, she didn't dare put the herbs in the space, so she could only hold them in her arms.

Wei Jingyuan said nothing, walking slowly with his cane. He looked up and saw Tao Qiuyi standing in front of him with herbs in his hands.

"Why don't you leave?" Wei Jingyuan asked as he passed by her.

"Waiting for you!" Tao Qiuyi held the herbs in both hands and walked with him with a smile.

Wei Jingyuan felt as if his heart had been hit hard by something, and he stumbled...

"Be careful." Tao Qiuyi reached out and supported Wei Jingyuan in time, successfully preventing Wei Jingyuan from falling. However, the herbs in her hands were scattered all over the ground. She had no time to look at the herbs on the ground, but looked at Wei Jingyuan instead.

Tao Qiuyi asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Wei Jingyuan shook his head and looked at her with his deep and complicated eyes.

The concern in her eyes didn't seem fake.

"I'm glad you're okay. Be careful when walking and watch your feet." Tao Qiuyi breathed a sigh of relief that he was fine. After giving him a few instructions, she squatted down to pick up the fallen herbs.

At this time, a group of birds flew overhead and landed on a tree not far away.

"What on earth are those shiny stones?" Tao Qiuyi heard the birds talking.

"do not know."

"I know, I know, those shiny stones have a name, they are called gold."

"gold."

"Yes, gold. I saw a box full of it when I was building a nest in the big tree in front of Fool Zhang's house."

“So it’s called gold.”

“Humans really like gold.”

"I don't know about others, but the people in the silly Zhang family must like it very much. They smiled happily when they saw the gold."

"Then I can see clearly that there is gold in that cave."

The little birds chirped and gossiped.

Gold, the little birds found gold, found it in that cave. Tao Qiuyi tilted his head and his eyes fell on the little birds on the tree, seeing that they were gossiping enthusiastically.

It turns out that the little birds also like gossip. Tao Qiuyi laughed. These little birds said they saw gold, and so on. The little birds also said they saw a full box at Zhang's house.

No, the little birds are talking about the stupid Zhang family?

Idiot Zhang family? For some reason, Tao Qiuyi thought of Zhang Guang, the autistic child with cerebral palsy. In people's eyes, Zhang Guang was just a fool.

After picking up the herbs, Tao Qiuyi stuffed them into Wei Jingyuan's arms. "Hold them for me for a while. Stand here and don't move. I'll be back soon."

"Where are you going?" Wei Jingyuan asked with a frown.

"Under the tree over there." Tao Qiuyi pointed to the tree where the birds were resting and walked quickly towards the tree.

Wei Jingyuan didn't ask any more questions, thinking that she had seen some medicinal herbs and was anxious to pick them.
