Qi Huang opened his mouth and ate it, seeing his silly son smiling so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes, the expression on his face softened.
"Okay, eat with Tie Zhu, I'm thinking about something, you two don't bother me."
Qi Tieniu observed Qi Wang carefully, and saw that he really didn't look like a troubled person, so he felt relieved, picked up his chopsticks and ate hard.
The original owner is now forty-one years old. His body looks strong now, but Qi Wang knows that he only looks strong. He has been engaged in heavy physical labor since he can remember. It was he who worked hard, and when he grew up, he did heavy coolies like loading trucks and unloading coal. Now he is actually at the end of his strength. His body looks strong, but he has already weakened inside.
So after Zhang Wenyuan was supported, his body collapsed at an extremely fast speed.
You can't do heavy physical strength, but if you don't do heavy physical strength this year, without overturning the original owner's design, the options are a bit narrow.
Peach Blossom Village does not rely on mountains or water, picking fruits and hunting wild game is out of the question, besides that, what else can the original owner do
The technology that Qi Wang has mastered allows him to live well in any age in any world, but the status and knowledge of the original owner is also limited. In order not to be found and rejected by this world, he cannot do things that do not conform to the original owner's design. .
The reform and opening up in the 1980s, if you go to a coastal city, you may not be able to make a career with Qi Huang's ability, but he still has two children to teach, and before the family affairs are completely resolved, this The road cannot go.
Qi Wang tapped lightly on the table with his fingers, and when his eyes swept over the plate of yellow scrambled eggs on the table, he had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly knew what the original owner could do.
"Dad, are you thinking about it?"
Qi Tieniu's attention was always on Qi Huang, and when he saw his frown relax, he asked a question.
Qi Wang patted his head and said with a smile: "Think about it, let's eat. You are not big, but you have a lot to worry about. Be careful that you won't grow up if you worry too much."
Qi Tieniu said unconvinced: "I will not grow taller. Dad, you are so tall, and mother is also tall. I will definitely grow into a big man. Only the elder brother will not grow taller."
After hearing this, Qi Huang raised his eyebrows, and looked at Qi Tieniu in surprise, it seems that this guy is not so heartless.
If it was really an elm bump like the original owner, it would take a lot of work to teach it, and a smart child would save a lot of trouble.
Qi Tiezhu raised his head in a daze, looked at his brother, and then at his father, not knowing what kind of charade the two of them were playing.
Seeing the silly boy's appearance, Qi Wang stretched out his hand lovingly, and patted the boy's head: "Eat more, there are so many dishes, don't waste them."
Qi Tiezhu obediently said, then bowed his head and began to eat bitterly. Forget it, he didn't understand what his father and brother said, so it's better to eat obediently.
There is a saying that a half-child eats a poor old man. Qi Tieniu and Qi Tiezhu are growing up. They are at home on weekdays, and they are thankful if they can eat enough. Stir-fried cabbage is still so delicious. It turns out that eating too much braised pork will really cause trouble. The two of them didn't even let go of the broth on the plate. They pulled it all into the bowl, mixed it with noodles, and ate it in big mouthfuls. .
The two guys ate so much that they could barely stand up. Seeing them like this, Qi Wang was a little funny, but there was a strong sour feeling in his heart, which belonged to the original owner. Looking at what happened to his two children from another angle, the original owner probably finally felt that he was really unqualified as a father.
No wonder people often say that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. The original owner's hard work is hard work, but his hard work did not allow his two children to live a good life. After a meal, just like the disaster victim, he rolled his eyes.
Thinking about when the original owner and Xu Xiaofeng came to send Zhang Wenyuan to school, they must have a good meal in the restaurant.
Xu Xiaofeng always said that the food in the school was not good, there was no oil and water, and Zhang Wenyuan had to make up for it. The original owner always felt that there was no problem with this, but he never thought that Zhang Wenyuan could eat oil and water in the restaurant almost every week. However, the two children of the family were bitterly eating corn buns and cabbage buns at home.
What the original owner did was really...
Qi Huang shook his head, he couldn't understand the original owner's thoughts, and he didn't want to find out what the original owner was thinking. He is the one who controls the current use of this body, and these two children will never be wronged.
When the two children had rested, Qi Wang took them to prepare to go back. Before leaving the town, Qi Tiezhu said that he wanted to eat candy, so Qi Wang bought two packs of fusilli candies for the two children.
If it was usual, these two children would definitely say that they would bring a bag to Zhang Wenyuan, but this time, neither of the two children mentioned that they would bring candy to Zhang Wenyuan.
Changing their minds doesn't happen overnight, but they are slowly changing and everything is moving in a good direction, so that's enough.
It was already afternoon when they left home, and it was late autumn now, and it got dark early, and when they walked halfway back, the sky was already dark.
There are no street lights on the country road, and there is no moon tonight. The road is dark and looks a little scary. The two brothers are a little scared. They hold on to Qi Huang's clothes tightly and follow him with deep feet and shallow feet. go home.
Qi Wang's eyesight is very good, and the darkness doesn't have much effect on him. He took a child by the hand and walked towards the house with steady steps.
Qi Tieniu asked abruptly: "Dad, do you often take such night walks when you go to work at the station?"
If it wasn't because of getting used to walking, how could it be so smooth? Qi Tieniu felt the thick calluses on the palm of Qi Wang's palm, and felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.
Dad has worked so hard, and he and Tie Zhu are still so naughty and disobedient. If the two of them were obedient, Dad wouldn't be in such a difficult situation, right
"Father, Tie Zhu and I will definitely listen to what you say in the future, and we won't be naughty anymore."
The child was afraid that he was thinking of something else again, Qi Huang smiled and said: "It's normal for children to be naughty, don't suppress yourself, as long as you don't cause big trouble, you will be fine, how old are you? Don't make yourself look like a little old man. When Dad was your age, there was endless work to do every day. At that time, I was thinking, if I have children in the future, I must let them be naughty Be naughty at age, or else at such an age, you won't have the time and energy to be naughty."
Qi Tieniu held Qi Wang's hand tightly, looking at his father's tall figure, he felt a little sour in his heart, and at the same time felt that the relationship between himself and his father seemed much closer than before.
In the past, my father had always been taciturn and rarely talked to the two of them, and only when facing the stepmother, he would talk more. This was the first time that my father had spoken so much to them.
Perhaps it was because Qi Wang was very talkative today, and Qi Tieniu talked more than usual. He followed Qi Wang's words and asked him about his childhood.
"Then Dad, you had to work every day when you were a child, didn't you have any free time?"
Qi Wang nodded and said, "Yes, when I was young, I couldn't finish my work, so how could I have free time?"
The original owner was a bit awkward in some aspects, even if his parents, brothers and sisters treated him very badly, he never said anything bad about them in front of his children, and he never mentioned anything about his childhood, which led to The two children misunderstood the relatives of the original owner.
Perhaps because of his age, or because he was not so hard-hearted towards the two younger children, the original owner's parents and several brothers and sisters were able to get along with these two children on the surface.
Coupled with Xu Xiaofeng for comparison, the two brothers even thought that their grandparents, uncles and aunts were all good.
This is the first time they heard from Qi Wang about his childhood.
How similar is everything that Dad encountered to what they are experiencing now? The only difference is that at that time, my father was working as a cow and a horse for his own brothers and sisters, but they were working as a cow and a horse for their stepmother and stepbrother who had nothing to do with each other.
"I'm the youngest child in my family. I was born in a bad year, and the family didn't have enough food. Your grandma thought I couldn't survive, but I survived stumbling."
"But although I am young, I basically do all the work at home. Your aunt is a girl and needs to be pampered and cannot do heavy work. Your two uncles are weak and cannot do heavy work. Only my body The best and the strongest, the work is all mine."
When I was young, I carried hogweed, collected firewood, cooked, cleaned up the house, and when I was older, I was able to work in the fields, dig the ground and plan holes to resist sacks. The parents of the original owner did not treat him as a child at all. A child of twelve or thirteen years old should be used as a strong laborer.
The food and drink at home belong to his older brothers and sisters. He eats the worst food, but does the heaviest work.
When he was old enough to go to school, the old couple said that he was born stupid and couldn't learn any tricks in school, so he might as well just work at home and have a means of making a living in the future.
When he was older, his sister needed a dowry when she got married, and her brother needed a gift when he married his wife. There was money inside and out, and he was sent to a quarry to work as a coolie. In fact, he earned a lot of money there, but But none of the money fell into his hands, because his mother and father had already greeted people, and the salary was not paid to him.
Some parents are born to control their children. They don’t need to be taught. They can learn their brainwashing ability without a teacher. Since the original owner was conscious, they have been brainwashing the original owner to make him willingly contribute to the family.
If it wasn't for the fact that the original owner was too old, the people in the village would have criticized the old couple of the Qi family, and they would not have thought about marrying the original owner a wife and letting him out as a strong laborer.
But even after marrying a wife, starting a family and starting a business, it is said that they were separated from the family, but the exploitation has never been reduced.
The original owner’s house has little land, and when he finished the work in his field early during the busy farming season, his brother and sister-in-law would ask him to help them with the work. When they were nervous, they would ask the original owner to “borrow” money , It's just that they only borrow and don't pay back. They say it's borrowing, but in fact it's almost the same as taking it.
Because of being brainwashed since childhood, even if they live separately, the original owner's personality has already been determined. How can it be so easy to change
He never felt that there was a problem with the way his family treated him, and naturally he couldn't teach his children.
And his so-called family members also need face. In front of the two children, they are willing to pretend to be relatives, which also leads to a deviation in the two children's perception of them.
Qi Wang didn't add any details, but just told all the things that happened to the original owner, and let the two children make their own judgments.
Qi Tieniu apparently didn't expect his father's relatives to treat him so badly. He felt sorry for his father, but he didn't know how to comfort him. They were all relatives connected by blood. They were his parents, brothers and sisters. He's connected, what can he say as a junior
Qi Tieniu didn't know how to speak, but after Qi Tiezhu listened to what Qi Wang said, he was silent for a long time before he asked a question.
"Dad, since they treat you so badly, why don't you know how to resist? Are you just letting others bully you? Are you..."
In the end it was his own father, Qi Tiezhu didn't say the word stupid, but everyone knew what he wanted to say.
Qi Huang smiled wryly, and said: "At that time, I was young and didn't have the ability to think on my own, so whatever the adults said, I really thought your grandma was doing it for my own good..."
"But didn't you realize it when you grew up?"
Qi Tiezhu said another sentence abruptly.
Qi Huan: "..."
Although this child is less talkative, every sentence can point to the core. When he was young, he didn't have the ability to think of his own. Why didn't he know how to resist when he grew up and let others bully him
The hole dug by the original owner buried Qi Huang in it, but he himself had to find a way to get himself out, and educate the two cheap sons by the way.
"Before I always felt that we were a family, so I didn't need to worry about so much, but now I think about it, I treat them as a family, but they treat me as a fool, people's hearts will be cold, since I can't warm their hearts , then why continue to cover it?"
After a pause, Qi Wang continued: "I'm telling you two this because I want to tell you that not everything adults say is right. Adults are human too, and as long as they are human, they will make mistakes. You have to You have to make your own judgment, you have to learn to use your brain to think, understand? Dad has never been to school, and anyone who doesn't know a single word can understand these principles. Both of you have gone to elementary school, so you should understand things better than me Bar?"
Qi Tieniu and Qi Tiezhu nodded repeatedly, expressing that they understood what Qi Wang said.
These principles are a bit esoteric for them now, but it doesn't matter, they will understand sooner or later.
While speaking, they had already arrived at the village, and the father and son walked to the door of their house familiarly.
At this time, there was no electricity in Taohua Village, and kerosene lamps were used at home, and the lights of kerosene lamps were a bit dim. Even if the kerosene lamps were lit, the small house looked dim.
Xu Xiaofeng sat on the chair, tears streaming down her eyes, looking extremely wronged.
Seeing her like this, Zhang Wenyuan felt extremely bored, but he had to be patient and coax her.
"Okay Mom, didn't you just get slapped by Qi Baozhu? What's the big deal? Who made you marry a worthless man, and you don't look like a man when you are a man. What else can you do besides being angry?"
After hearing Zhang Wenyuan's words, Xu Xiaofeng wiped tears and felt even more wronged.
"Who am I still for? If it wasn't for supporting you, would I need to marry him? You're still blaming me now. Who am I working so hard for? Isn't it for you? "
While talking, Xu Xiaofeng cried again, looking indescribably sad.
Today Qi Baozhu came over and tore her up a lot. After talking a lot, he opened his mouth to ask her for money, saying that her daughter-in-law was pregnant, and Xu Xiaofeng and the others wanted favors.
This eldest aunt is like an autumn wind, asking for money every now and then, and even her piggies want them to give her favors.
Normally when Qi Wang was around, the money would naturally be given, but as long as Qi Wang was not around, Xu Xiaofeng would insist on not giving the money.
The money Qi Wang earned was used to support her and her son, so why should Qi Baozhu want it
In the past, she relied on being Qi Wang's mother-in-law, and she was not afraid that Qi Baozhu would make trouble in front of Qi Wang, so she was too stubborn, but this time, Qi Baozhu directly tore her to pieces.
"Don't think I don't know what you're up to. If you're crazy, be careful that I'll let my brother divorce you. Do you think my brother can still want you if you make such a mess?"
Xu Xiaofeng was a little guilty and short of breath, he could only let Qi Baozhu tear people up, even he seemed a little lacking in confidence when he spoke back.
After tearing her apart, Qi Baozhu asked her for money again. In order to get rid of this disaster star, Xu Xiaofeng originally wanted to spend money to avoid disaster, but who would have thought that she would go and get it? When I got the money, I found that my money and passbook were gone.
Xu Xiaofeng's first reaction was to make trouble with a thief, but if it was a thief, it would be impossible to be so tidy. If it wasn't a thief, then there would only be her own man, and it was Qi Wang who took all her money away.
This was something that had never happened before, Xu Xiaofeng was flustered, how could he care about Qi Baozhu's cynicism
Qi Baozhu left in a fit of anger, Xu Xiaofeng told Zhang Wenyuan about the disappearance of the money, she has been crying since the afternoon until now, Zhang Wenyuan has run out of good things to say, Xu Xiaofeng still does not get better, and his patience is completely exhausted.
"Divorce if you can't make it through. If he doesn't give you money, what are you doing with him? An illiterate old man, if you don't have money for you, how can you sleep with him for nothing? You can't do without a man so much ?"
Hearing what his son said, Xu Xiaofeng's face changed instantly.
