Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year

Chapter 300 It’s intentional

"I'm not as good as my sister-in-law said. The main reason is that I'm not a very good father. I've disappointed Erlang and the others."

"If you can correct your shortcomings, you'll have the chance to be a good father in the future."

Speaking of which, Feng was pregnant, so Cui Laoer's belated fatherly love was not completely wasted.

Cui Lao Er repeatedly assured: "I will change, as long as Erlang and the others are willing to come back, I will definitely change."

Lin smiled and shook her head.

He still didn't understand that during the most difficult days, it was the five brothers and sisters who warmed each other and got through it. Now, the five of them have formed their own small family, and there is no place for Cui Laoer and Feng.

At this time, Cui Chengliang came out from the yard and silently handed Lin a tender cucumber.

"Are you thirsty? I just picked it from the field and have already washed it."

The cucumber was juicy and still had water droplets on it. Lin thanked him and started to chew the cucumber with Cui Chengliang.

Cui Laoer stared at the cucumber and swallowed his saliva.

"I'm thirsty too, Lao San. Break me half."

Cui Chengliang finished the cucumber in his hand in a few bites.

"Go back to your garden and pick them. If I give them to you, my mother will beat me up."

Cui Laoer held his breath in his throat.

He's such an old man, yet you pick on his sore spots.

Where did his family get a vegetable garden? And what does the sentence after that mean? Even if I give him a few bites, his mother won’t know.

Cui Chengliang did it on purpose.

Old Mrs. Cui is good at growing vegetables. Her cucumbers are so sweet and juicy that Old Man Cui's throat itches with greed.

Cui Chengliang had just heard what was happening from behind and knew that Cui Laoer still wanted to call Erlang and the others back.

"Second brother, you don't have any land at all. If you stay in the village, you'll have to rent some land to farm. At the end of the year, after paying the rent, there won't be much left. Even if you save for ten years, you can hardly afford to buy a few acres of land. It's better for you to go out and earn money."

"You earn quite a bit a year sailing, don't you?"

Cui Laoer licked his dry lips and said, "At least I can earn seven or eight taels a year."

"Yes, second brother, you are so capable. It's a pity to stay in the village farming. You know how many people in the village envy you for being a boatman. They can't do it even if they want to."

The job of a boatman not only requires the ability to endure hardship, but also requires staying on the boat for several months at a time. This alone is not something that ordinary people can endure.

How many people would rather earn a little money by carrying heavy bags at the dock than follow the ship.

Cui Laoer is not only willing to work, but also honest. With so much cargo coming and going on the ship, not many people can control their hands.

So even though Cui Laoer is a little older, the familiar manager is still willing to hire him. Last time, it was because of Cui Laoer's face that the manager on the ship agreed to let Cui Laoda on board.

Cui Laoer said bitterly, "If I continue to work on the ship, this family will be broken up."

"Just listen to me and let your wife go with you on the boat. It's not uncommon for couples to work as boatmen together. Besides, the boat provides meals, which is perfect for your wife."

Cui Laoer subconsciously wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, his eyes suddenly brightened.

Although Feng is lazy, he is indeed very strong, which can be seen just by looking at his skeleton.

If she had gone on board, she would have saved money on food and saved all the money she earned, and could have bought several acres of land in a year.

After I buy the land, I will call Erlang and the others back, and I will have enough money to help Erlang get married.

The third son’s wife was right. He has nothing now, and the child definitely doesn’t want to go home.

When he has saved enough money and let Erlang and the others see his changes, then he can stand up straight and become a father.
