Chapter 36 The Selected Little Patriarch
Before Gui Chongyang could reply, Grandpa Gui Er had already scolded: "Fifth Lao, what are you doing? Don't worry about the money from Chongyang. Do you still look like an uncle? No one is allowed to move the fifty taels of silver, so they can buy land and repair the house."
"Dad misunderstood. I didn't think about the money from Chongyang. I said before that Chongyang would buy an adjacent yard in the town so that each other could take good care of each other. I mean that I thought about buying a house in the town, so I asked this question." Gui Wu said hurriedly.
Gui Chongyang nodded: "It was mentioned by my grandson before. Second Grandpa, don't misunderstand Uncle Five."
Grandpa Gui Er's expression still did not improve. He stopped and stared at Gui Wu.
Gui Wu was so angry that he was seen: "Dad, what's wrong with this?"
Grandpa Gui Er frowned tightly: "Son, be a person, behave in a conscience. We cannot do that kind of thing that loses conscience!"
This was so stupid that Gui Wu was confused when he was said: "What did your son do?"
The bystander from Gui Chongyang was Qing, and saw Grandpa Gui Er's concern, and said, "Uncle Fifth, Grandpa II was worried that you would secretly pay Mr. Jiang's money."
Gui Wu then reacted and blushed and said, "In the eyes of my father, my son is just a greedy villain? Don't worry, my son's money comes in vain. He had done some small business with others before, and he didn't have much money, but he was barely enough to buy a yard in the town."
"Isn't it really the rest of Congjiang Family Teahouse?" Grandpa Gui Er was skeptical.
Gui Wu raised his lips and said, "Several sisters and brother-in-law are staring at the teahouse's tent. If your son really dares to reach out, can they watch it?"
Grandpa Gui Er then breathed a sigh of relief: "Others are others, you are you. Don't touch things you shouldn't touch, otherwise you won't be able to hold them. No matter what, your father-in-law's family is the benefactor of our Gui family. Just because the money saved Chun'er's life, we can't be sorry to the Jiang family!"
Gui Wu nodded hurriedly and said, "That's natural. It's not only the life-saving grace, but also the father-in-law and mother-in-law regard their son as a parent-child for more than ten years, and they dare not forget this kind of kindness of raising them. The sisters and brother-in-law are not generous. The son's meaning is that although he changes his surname to the descendant, he can still serve as a supporter for the elderly there later."
Grandpa Gui Er was stunned when he heard this, then nodded and said, "It should have been like this."
Gui Wu looked at Grandpa Gui Er's expression and felt relieved. This is what he planned to explain to his parents as soon as possible so that the two elders could be prepared. Being filial to their father-in-law and father-in-law does not mean that they are not filial to their parents, but they always have to accept it in their hearts and not keep the knots.
Gui Chongyang was beside him. He heard these things and did not hear them. He looked around.
Someone hurriedly walked by with a sickle on the road. Grandpa Gui Er looked at the sky and said, "Good tomorrow, and the wheat at home can be harvested!"
When Gui Chongyang heard this, he couldn't help but be excited: "Can you eat fresh white noodles when the wheat comes down? My aunt also said this yesterday."
Grandpa Gui Er smiled bitterly and said, "Each family only has six or seventy-fourths of land. It would be good to produce more than one stone of wheat. A stone of wheat is 250 cents. This is a profit, but it is not easy to eat it."
Gui Chongyang immediately extinguished his voice. Don’t you understand the principle of “going to the countryside and following the customs”? The longer you grow, the less promising it. Sorghum rice and millet rice are the food for all the elders. Why can’t they eat it? Well, what white flour is in mind?
Gui Chongyang gave birth to a little shame.

The next day, the weather was sunny, so Grandpa Gui Er sent Gui Wu to the old house in the front yard, and wanted to help us harvest wheat first.
There is such a thing every year. Grandma Gui's second grandma had never been unhappy before. The two families were close relatives, and Mei was the niece, so it was nothing to help with some work. But with Gui Chongyang, Grandma Gui's second grandma Gui's heart was divided inside and outside.
"Old man, you don't feel sorry for your children and grandchildren, I still feel in my heart! The little boy is back and he has to do what he should do. He has to make everything work. He can't make him the young master?" Grandma Gui was so angry that she was talking.
Grandpa Gui Er glanced at the west wing and said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense? Even if you learn farming, you will learn it in less than a day. You have to teach it slowly."
Grandma Gui rolled her eyes: "What are you teaching? I just saw the wind falling. Look, I'm going to be lazy after finding Yuko."
Grandpa Gui Er did not comment, but he did not continue to grind his teeth with his wife.
In the west wing, Jiang heard the conversation between her parents-in-law, thinking that Gui Chongyang, who was already an orphan, was so thin and weak, and was afraid of being tired when studying. How could he feel like he could do farm work? If he could have a child, he would not be much smaller than Gui Chongyang. His heart was so sour that he could not bear it.

In the backyard of the old house, Gui Chongyang followed Gui Wu and Gui Chun with a sickle. He did not just do it, but observed the movements of the two of them first.
Gui Chun was quick-witted and got his hands on the knife and cut the wheat in one hand. On the contrary, Gui Wu's movements were similar, but he was a little unfamiliar and couldn't use any strength, so he often had to cut several times.
Gui Chun saw Gui Chongyang holding a sickle and straightened her waist: "Don't use a sickle to play with Chongyang. Be careful to cut your hands. When you are bored, go to the vegetable field to pick it and eat it every day. That's sweet."
"Tiantian" is a purple-black berries the size of a little finger. After one of them is found in the vegetable field, it will grow every year. Because plum blossoms like to eat, there are a few vegetables left in the vegetable garden here. Guichun knew that, so he used the one to coax Gui Chongyang.
Gui Chongyang's face was full of dark lines: "Brother Chun, I didn't play, I want to learn to cut wheat."
Gui Chun shook his head and said, "Where can you cut wheat with your hand?"
Gui Chongyang hummed: "Brother Chun has forgotten my strength?" After that, he bent down, learned from Gui Chun's previous actions, grabbed a handful of wheat, and waved his sickle.
Guichun and Gui Wu met and were startled, afraid that he would cut him down, but dared not speak out, for fear that he would be surprised.
Although the first time I was unfamiliar with my posture and the strength I used was wrong, the wheat harvested by Gui Chongyang was uneven, but it was still successful.
Gui Chongyang held the wheat with a proud face.
Gui Chun and Gui Wu saw that Gui Chongyang was quite good, but did not act recklessly, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
Gui Chongyang had already put down the wheat in his hand and bent down again.
Seeing that he was very excited, Gui Wu and Gui Chun showed a little childishness and were unwilling to discourage his excitement, so they did not stop him.
It’s six acres of land here in detail. Guichun moves quickly and cuts a ridge in a short while. Gui Wu is a little worse, and most of it is; Gui Chongyang came from behind and wanted to catch up with Gui Wu.
When Gui Wu saw this, he hurriedly said, "Slow down on Double Ninth Festival, don't be tired."
Gui Chongyang responded, but his subordinates did not stop. It was not that he liked to work, but that he did not dare to stop because once he stopped, he did not want to move anymore.
Get up, bend over, bend over, get up, a few simple actions make people want to die; coupled with the gradually hot sun above your head, Gui Chongyang's feet began to tremble and sweat profusely.
Gui Chongyang told himself that he wanted to be the patriarch and not everyone should take care of the children. Now that his family has returned, Uncle Gui Wu has come back. If he cannot prove that he is an adult, he will be even more in the future.
With this breath, Gui Chongyang followed Gui Wu and Gui Chun, cutting all the wheat from sixteenth place in one breath.
