Everyone Pampers the Small Blessing Who Has a Spatial Pocket! - Chapter 207
207 Awakening of the Wang Family’s Fathers
When Little Ah Yu saw the little girl, she immediately ran towards her and held her hand affectionately.
“Big Sister!”
The little girl took a step back and said respectfully, “Little Master Ah Yu.”
!!
Little Ah Yu: “Big Sister?”
Everyone was also puzzled. Why did she suddenly call her Little Master?
Old Madam Wang: “From now on, Tang Yuan is a member of our family. She’ll be taking care of Ah Yu.”
Tang Yuan is the name of the little girl. Old Madam Wang had specially given her this name because she was young and had smooth skin.
Tang Yuan took a step forward and bowed to Little Ah Yu, calling her Little Master again.
Everyone still looked at each other. Did they really add a servant to the family?
Moreover, their current situation was not suitable for adding a servant. They had yet to figure it out.
“Tang Yuan, bring Ah Yu somewhere else to play. Be careful not to let her bump into anything.”
“Yes.” Tang Yuan was very obedient. She brought Ah Yu far away. Actually, she was just going to play in the courtyard.
There was a small lotus pond there with flowers planted beside it. It could be considered a small scenic spot.
When Wang Wulang, who had just returned home, saw this, he was worried and followed.
The children also returned one after another. They either went to the study to read and revise their homework, or ran to the back of the courtyard to play with Ah Yu.
The more hardworking Wang Dalang followed the adults to see if there was anything they needed.
“Mother, why did you bring a servant into the family?” Wang Chuanfu did not quite understand. Aren’t they a farmer family?
Only landlords and old masters had servants.
Old Madam Wang said angrily, “Then compensate me with five taels of silver. I’ll arrange a servant for you too. How about that?”
At the mention of this, Wang Chuanfu felt a little guilty. Initially, things were still fine, and Old Madam Wang was not prepared to take Tang Yuan in.
Their family still had some secrets that were not suitable for outsiders to know.
In the end, after Tang Yuan was sent back, the two men began to beat her up on the street. One of the little girl’s arms was twisted.
When Wang Chuanfu saw this, he could not help but fight with the two of them. Wang Chuanyuan originally did not want to participate. But in the end, when he saw his brother being beaten up so badly, he could not help but join the fight.
In the end, the four men ended up in a chaotic rumble. When the local enforcers arrived, they saw that the two men were in a more miserable state.
They could not help the Wang Family even if they wanted to.
The two men shouted that they had been beaten up and wanted the Wang Family to compensate them.
Originally, the price was 100 taels of silver. Old Madam Wang bargained on the streets and cut the price to 5 taels of silver. At the same time, she took Tang Yuan away from them.
Under the witness of the officials, Junior Officers, and Patriarchs, they gave Tang Yuan’s slave contract to the Wang Family.
Only then did the onlookers outside know that Tang Yuan had really been sold to her biological uncles by her family and had even written a slave contract.
For servants with a slave contract, even if they died outside, not many people cared.
Wang Chuanfu’s moment of upholding justice had directly caused the Wang Family to lose five taels of silver.
In the past, five taels of silver was practically something that could take their lives. Wang Chuanfu naturally knew what it meant.
It would be extremely difficult to retrieve the silver that had been spat out.
Old Madam Wang did not want to suffer a loss, so she took Tang Yuan in.
In the end, she still felt indignant in her heart. She felt that she had fallen into a trap. It was all this unlucky son’s fault.
Wang Chuanfu touched his head. “This time…”
“Alright, I can’t be bothered to listen to your excuses. Since you’ve already taken her back, teach her well. In addition, you have to tell Chuangui to work harder. If he doesn’t pass the entrance examination, our family will be eliminated by others sooner or later.”
Wang Chuanyuan smiled obsequiously at the side. “Mother, it’s not that serious, right? Our family didn’t offend anyone, and we’re doing a good deed.”
Old Madam Wang sneered in response.
“Then just carry on with that thought. When the Wang Family collapses, remember to come to my grave and offer incense. I’ll definitely crawl out of my grave and beat you to death!”
Wang Chuanyuan : “…”
After Old Madam Wang left, Wang Chuanfu and Wang Chuanyuan discussed for a while before running to the study to look for Wang Chuangui.
Then, they told him, “Chuangui, our family’s rise will depend on you!”
Wang Chuangui: “??? Why are you relying on me? Everyone in the family has to contribute too!”
He first looked at Wang Chuanfu. “Big Brother, look. Hu Family Village is our foundation. In the future, if our family really can’t survive anymore, we can still return to the village to farm. We can’t possibly sell the land we bought, right?”
Then, he looked at Wang Chuanyuan. “Third Brother, you too. Isn’t our bun shop popular now? Moreover, I’m afraid that no one else can easily imitate our secret recipe. When this bun shop is on the right track, we’ll open another bun shop. We’ll open it in town, in the prefectural city, and in the capital, Wanning City! When our bun shop is well established, we’ll have more money. It’s said that money can even make ghosts work. When our family has enough money, who will dare to bully our family?”
Wang Chuanfu and Wang Chuanyuan looked at each other. Coupled with Wang Chuangui’s words, they felt that this made sense.
Previously, they all felt that their mother thought the best of their Second Brother. Otherwise, why would she let him take the Imperial Examination when their family’s conditions were not good?
But from the looks of it, Mother’s arrangement had a deeper meaning.
The eldest son guarded the foundation of Hu Family Village. In the future, their family might be able to buy more land and truly become the landlord of Hu Family Village.
The second son would take the path of the Imperial Examination because his brain was better. However, he was actually not very good at manual work. He might as well take the Imperial Examination and be a good official in the future.
The third son was smart, but he could only talk to customers confidently when he was doing business.
If it was farming or studying, he was a little lacking. From the looks of it, he was born to do business.
As for the fourth son, he had some of the good and bad traits of his elder brothers. His main advantage was that he was young, straightforward, and obedient.
Thinking about it this way, it seemed that only their Fourth Brother had nothing serious to do.
Therefore, their Fourth Brother should go out and be a butler. They other brothers all felt that they had something important to do and did not want to be a butler anymore. Now that they looked at it, it was really suitable to leave it to their Fourth Brother!
The three brothers discussed for a long time and felt that their family could not be supported by just one person. Everyone had to contribute.
What if their Wang Family became a large family in the future?
The more promising people there were, the more prosperous the family.
Wang Chuangui returned to the study and saw the boys memorizing books slowly while playing something at the same time.
He glared at them. “Stop playing! Hurry up and study hard. Follow me to participate in the junior examination next year!”
The few Wang Family boys who were playing immediately looked as if they had been struck by lightning.
“Ah? We’re participating in the exams next year?”
But now, they had just finished learning the Three Character Classic and the Thousand Family Surnames.
Wang Chuanfu was also looking at Wang Dalang. Wang Dalang was originally helping chop firewood when he suddenly felt that something was wrong with his father’s gaze.
Wang Dalang put down the ax in his hand.
“Father, what’s the matter?”
Wang Chuanfu’s gaze was faint as he said in a low voice, “Dalang, tell me honestly. Do you hate me?”
Wang Dalang: ???.
Wang Chuanfu continued, “Your younger brothers either went to study literature or martial arts. They didn’t fall behind in either aspect. Only you were left behind in the village and occasionally learned from Old Master Hu. You must feel aggrieved, right?”
Wang Dalang: “…I don’t feel aggrieved. Father, what are you trying to say?”
Wang Chuanfu: “I’ve thought it through. In the future, we’re no longer using the ox to plow the fields. You’ll plow the fields yourself. This way, you can train your body. In the future, you will be a farmer who can do everything. You can be considered to have a skill!”
Wang Dalang was confused. “???”
Do I have nothing better to do? Why do I have to fight with the ox for work???
