C71 Big Brother
C71 Big Brother
"Okay, okay. Come back for dinner later!" Xu Zhenhua called out enthusiastically. One should know that... Just now, when she was carrying things into the house, she discovered that there were many good clothes in the bag. They were all bought for her. The quality of the clothes was very good. Xu Zhenhua did not wear such good clothes when she got married. How could she not be happy?
Lan Tian nodded and walked towards the river. From afar, he could see his big brother, Lan Shuyong, standing under a big tree, staring at the river with full concentration.
From the memories in his body, Lan Tian knew that his big brother was a carpenter. Logically speaking, the salary of a carpentry was still okay. But his brother's carpentry skills... It could only be considered as half-baked skills. In addition, he was unwilling to come out to work, so the furthest he could go was working in this town. This way, it would become something that wouldn't happen for a day.
However, this big brother didn't care. In any case, if he had work, he would do it. If he didn't have work, he would just work at home and work as a farmer. When he was free, he would fish.
Fishing was his big brother's greatest hobby. He couldn't fish without a wheel. He could only stay by the river for a day.
"Brother, how much did you catch?" Lan Tian walked over and asked.
Hearing Lan Tian's call, Lan Shuyong turned around and looked at him. When he saw that Lan Tian was wearing a half-worn shirt, he could not hide the mocking look in his eyes.
He smiled at Lan Tian and said, "Tian, you really came back at the right time. He had caught quite a lot of fish today. There were five or six fish. I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook some fish for you later, although there are fish in your city too. You can't buy such wild fish even with money. Oh right, Tian, how's life over there? Was it still treated like a dog and drank all the time?"
Lan Tian took out a pack of cigarettes worth eight dollars from his pocket and handed one over. He smiled and said, "It's alright!"
Seeing that Lan Tian was still smoking this kind of cigarette, the mocking look on Lan Shuyong's face became even more prominent. He withdrew the cigarette Lan Tian gave him and stood up. He took out a bag of interest from the pocket of his shirt and showed it off. "Come, come, come. Brother Smoke, I worked in a family in town a few days ago. Not to mention the 200 yuan salary per day, there was also a pack of good cigarettes!"
Lan Tian smiled and said, "Me, this is my life. I'm not used to smoking good cigarettes either." After saying that, he picked up his own cigarette and started smoking. He did not pick up the so-called good cigarettes from Lan Shuyong.
Lan Shuyong said with a sneer, "That's right. You can't smoke such a good cigarette. If you get used to it, it will be bad if you don't have the money to buy it."
"Tian, it's not that I'm talking to you. You are a university student after all. Why are you so useless? It's fine if you're living off a woman, but the salary you get every month is given to your mother-in-law. Hehe, it's not that I want to scold you, my mother is also your biological mother. You have to pay for your alimony!"
"Let's not talk about other things. Let's talk about this year. Mom caught a cold three times, and I spent more than 500 yuan. Last year, you only gave Mom 200 yuan, and this year, you didn't even pay a penny. "
" Tian, our family has been through hardships to support you to go to university. I don't want you to be a troublemaker. Dad didn't enjoy your happiness and watched Mom grow old day by day. You can't be an iron rooster and not pull out a single hair!"
Lan Tian chuckled and said," Big Brother is right. That's why I brought some money back this time for you and Mom to use. To repay you for helping me study. "
Lan Shuyong wasn't very happy when he heard that Lan Tian had brought money back. Instead, he had a mocking expression on his face. " Oh? He brought the money back? How much? Two hundred or five hundred? If it was still less than a thousand, then there was no need to give it. Big brother, although I don't have much money, I'm not a beggar. I don't need you to be like a beggar."
Lan Tian chuckled and looked at the river surface. He did not say anything, but his heart was gradually filled with disappointment. The warmth he had just felt from his mother was being rapidly reduced by his elder brother and sister-in-law.
The two brothers chatted idly for another ten minutes. Lan Shuyong put away his fishing rod and said, "Alright, I'm not fishing anymore. Let's go home and eat. Oh right, Tian, didn't you say you would bring the money back? Where's the money?"
Lan Tian chuckled. "It's in the bag at home."
Lan Shuyong laughed mockingly when he heard Lan Tian's words. "Could it be that he secretly gave it to Mom again? Hehe, if it's still a few hundred, then don't act like that anymore. It's really embarrassing. "
"Actually, no matter how much money you bring back, you can give it to Mom openly. I definitely won't ask Mom for a cent. You even secretly gave it to me. Cheh, what kind of person do you think I am? Do I still care about your few hundred dollars?"
Lan Tian nodded. The affection he had for his elder brother had disappeared.
The two of them quickly walked to the door of their house. When they saw that Lan Tian was driving a worn-out Wuling Hongguang, Lan Shuyong really shook his head and said without hesitation, "Oh my, Tian, you are getting worse and worse. In the past, there was a Santana, but now it was driving a van. And it is an old van. Hehe, what a promising future! Well, Tian, I have something to discuss with you. Do you want it?"
"Speak!" Lan Tian said calmly.
"How about this? In the future, you don't drive a car like this back often. Or you can just drive back in your wife's Audi like last year. Or, you can just take a bus back. Don't drive this kind of garbage car back in front of everyone. "
" Hmph, because of you, I can't even raise my head from being laughed at by the villagers. It wasn't easy for them to forget about you, but you suddenly came back. If you came back, then come back. Your life is getting worse and worse. You're trying to hurt me, aren't you? I dare say that after you leave this time, I'll be mocked by others for at least a few months."
" Really Tian, I'm begging you. In the future, don't come back to this family. Don't make me lose face. I really can't afford to lose face. I'm begging you, am I right? "
"Yes! Brother, I won't make you lose face when I come back in the future." Lan Tian nodded his head heavily.
"That's right. Don't blame me for being ruthless. I have no other choice. As long as you are doing well, I will definitely open up my home for you! Eh? Where did Panpan get the car? Did you bring it to her? Not bad, not bad. You even know to bring something to your niece. Don't tell me you picked up someone else's toy and didn't want it?"
Xu Zhenhua just came out and after hearing Lan Shuyong's words, she glared at him. "Da Yong, what are you saying? Tian had brought back a lot of good stuff this time. How can you say that about him? Seriously. Tian, don't take it to heart. Your brother is such a person. A sharp tongue but a soft heart. Come in quickly. Sister-in-law will get you some water. "
