Chapter 219 Provocation
Old lady Tian has always treated her grandson as her treasure and granddaughter as grass, Tian Shao is not willing to look at such a person at all. But in order for her family to live a peaceful life, she had to spend more time talking.
Tian Shao said: "Grandma, do you still remember the grandma Gui from the next village? It was the grandma Gui who died in the grass shed last winter."
Old lady Tian looked at Tian Shao with unkind eyes, and said, "Daya Tian, are you cursing me to die?"
Tian Shao smiled, and then said to himself: "Grandma, this Grandma Gui has always favored the eldest son and preferred the third son over the second son, and the second son was kicked out after getting married just like my father. Not only that, but she also tried every means to exploit The second son came to subsidize the eldest son and the younger son, but the second son died of overwork before he was 40. Three years ago, when she fell ill, the elder son and the younger son blamed each other, and finally no one cared about her and drove her to the hut. The filial second son is gone, and the second daughter-in-law hates the children, and she doesn't care about it. After a year of freezing to death in the straw shed, she was only discovered by the neighbors three days later."
As far as this situation is concerned, if it weren't for her coming, Tian Dalin would not be able to live for a few years if he continued to work hard. Once Tian Dalin is gone, the old lady will not even think about stepping into this house again. When the time comes, she will definitely follow in the footsteps of Grandma Gui. But now that she is here, if the old lady freezes to death or starves to death due to no one in the future, the sisters will definitely be criticized in the future. No way, the national conditions are like this. In order to prevent this situation, Mrs. Tian must be made to be honest.
Just when Mrs. Tian was about to start scolding, Tian Shao smiled and said: "Grandma, I know that in your heart, the second uncle and the third uncle are filial sons, and the third brother Dali is the most conscientious grandson. In this way, let's make a bet , if you win, the pension money and food will be doubled in the future; if you lose, the pension money and food will be changed, but you are not allowed to come to my house to make trouble in the future, and if you want to make trouble, you will not be given money and food."
After hearing this, Mrs. Tian felt that she would not suffer no matter whether she wins or loses: "Say it."
Tian Shao's bet is also very simple, that is, the food sent by her family in the first month is only for Mrs. Tian to eat, and Tian Erlin and Tian Dali are not allowed to eat. If Tian Erlin and Tian Dali didn't rob her or scold her and beat her, then Mrs. Tian would win.
Old lady Tian responded immediately.
Tian Shao said: "Grandma, I want you to swear that you are not allowed to tell the second uncle Tian Dali and the others about this, and you have to eat the meat yourself. If you don't do it, you will suffer from all kinds of illnesses and die, and you will die after death." No one dies and cannot be buried in the Tian family's ancestral grave."
Li Guihua has been annoyed by Tian Shao for the past few months, but now she is particularly relieved.
Old lady Tian is an older generation who believes in things like gods and Buddhas, so she doesn't want to swear.
Tian Shao saw her hesitate, and said with a smile: "Grandma, it's just a month for them to eat regardless of meat. In the future, the pension money and grain given by my family will be doubled. Sixty catties of grain and ten yuan are not a lot!"
This is also thanks to the huge debts owed by the Tian family before, so the money and food given are the lowest.
Old lady Tian was moved, and then she looked at Tian Dalin and his wife: "She said that the pension money and grain would be doubled, did you hear that?"
Tian Dalin immediately expressed his opinion, saying: "Our family is in charge now, and whatever she says counts."
Although he didn't know what medicine was sold in Tian Shao's gourd, he knew that she had a reason for doing so.
Old lady Tian changed her mind, and said, "One hundred and eighty catties of grain and thirty yuan, if you promise me, I will swear."
Li Guihua was angry, but Tian Shao was ahead of her and responded: "Okay. As long as you can do it, in February, I will ask my parents to send you food and money."
Old lady Tian gritted her teeth and swore a poisonous oath in front of the whole family.
Tian Shao was very satisfied, and said to Li Guihua: "Mother, go and get a meat bun for grandma. Grandma, this meat bun is for your stomach. It will be ready after a while. I will let you pay homage to the ancestors." Wuya will send it to you."
Old lady Tian went back holding a meat bun.
Li Guihua waited for her to leave and scolded: "Daya Tian, are you crazy about gaining and losing your mind? You doubled the pension money at once."
An extra 120 catties of grain and 20 yuan are needed every year. What is the difference between this and poaching her meat.
Tian Shao smiled, and asked: "Mother, do you think if Grandma doesn't give the meat and vegetables we sent to Second Uncle and Tian Dali and the others, will they steal, grab, or complain?"
impossible. Over the years, Tian Erlin and Tian Dali have gotten used to good things being theirs, if Mrs. Tian doesn't give them meat and vegetables, they will definitely not give up.
Li Guihua scolded: "Even so, so what, the old woman knows that they are not filial, do you think she will favor us? Just dream, that is her darling, the incense inheritance of the Tian family."
Tian Shao didn't expect Mrs. Tian to favor their family at all, and she didn't care too much. Tian Shao smiled and said: "Mom, when grandma is old, people will be afraid of being sick and no one will take care of them. This time, I am giving grandma a chance, a chance to see clearly whether the second uncle Dali and the three brothers are really filial? If she knows that they are not filial, even for the sake of the future, grandma will not dare to come to the house to make trouble again."
Li Guihua said: "If she tells your second uncle and the others about this, we won't know."
Tian Shao said with a smile: "Don't say grandma made an oath, even Sanli is not a person who can hide her words. Mother, don't worry, the pension money will not increase. On the contrary, let grandma see their situation clearly earlier. Essentially, our family can live a clean life in the future.”
Li Guihua decided that she had to get in touch with the two neighbors next door to the old house and ask them to listen to the news of the old house. Don't let the dead old woman tell Tian Erlin and the others about this, and then come to fool her family.
At the same time, Mrs. Tian returned home, Tian Erlin saw that she only took a meat bun and complained: "Boss is getting more and more stingy now, and my life is so good now but I only give you a meat bun."
I don't know why, but when Mrs. Tian heard this, what Tian Shao said came to mind. But before she could speak, Sanli snatched the meat bun from her hand. But just as she took a bite, the bun was snatched away again.
I thought it was Xu Zhaodi or Tian Erli, grinning and wanting to cry, but when I looked up, it was Mrs. Tian: "Grandma, why are you grabbing my bun? Give it to me soon, I want to eat it."
Old lady Tian almost didn't bring it up in one breath, what did she mean by grabbing the buns, the buns were obviously brought back by herself. Annoyed, she ate the buns by herself.
