Chapter 471 Extra 2
As the eldest son in the family, I feel that I should spend more time in the fields every day to grow more crops so that my family won't go hungry.
Actually, we have enough food at home, but my younger sister is a bit naive. She took some of the family's food and gave it to the pretty boy in the village.
I work from dawn till dusk, and the little I grow is taken away and given to others. Sometimes, before I've finished my own work in the fields, my sister calls me to work for some gigolo.
For several years, we managed both plots of land belonging to Zhang Chunhua and her son, but the crops we grew were for them.
I didn't say it, but I definitely had complaints in my heart. However, my sister is the apple of our eye, so I didn't dare to say anything. I could only obediently do whatever she asked me to do.
My wife gave birth to two daughters, which I love very much. Actually, my mother doesn't dislike daughters either, but she only has eyes for her younger sister and doesn't like anyone else.
When Chunxing was pregnant, her younger sister had an accident, but fortunately, she recovered without serious injury.
A few days after she recovered, I came home from work one day and she actually poured me water and brought it out, something that had never happened before.
I was very happy and felt that everything I had done before was worthwhile. The water that day was very sweet, the sweetest I had ever tasted.
My younger sister is very smart and capable. The family business gradually improved, and later we even bought a hilltop, which was planted with fruit trees.
She praised me for being a skilled farmer, which made me work even harder.
I don't know when, but a lot of strange vegetable seeds have appeared in my house, all kinds of them.
My younger sister is really smart; she even came up with a way to grow vegetables in winter. No wonder Mom and Dad always praise her.
Mother wouldn't accept our money; she told us to save it for our daughter and unborn child.
I only knew how to farm and didn't know what else to do, but my sister secretly bought me a fresh produce shop. The wealthy families in town came to buy things every day, so I had a steady income every day.
After returning from the southern wilderness, my younger sister brought rice seeds from other places to plant at home. They were amazing; the wind couldn't blow them down, and even though they were planted a month later, they grew better than everyone else's in the village.
When the rice plants were halfway up the hill, my sister told me to put fish fry in them. I was worried at first, but my parents told me to listen to my sister and I knew I could do the right thing.
The village chief and our family started doing things almost simultaneously. When he saw us setting off fireworks, he set them off too, and everyone else followed suit.
The fish eat insects, and their droppings in the fields become fertilizer, so the rice is growing better than in previous years.
The rice paddy fish in the fields grew up and tasted delicious, which earned the villagers another sum of money.
The waterwheels have been left idle. The three in the village are more than enough. Other villages have even come to borrow them when they hear we have them, and the rent is the same as what the village charges.
Later, my brother-in-law reported this to the emperor, and our family received a reward from him. My second brother and sister deserve the most praise; the rest of us were just helping out.
The village chief was even happier than we were, exclaiming that our family had really made him proud.
Actually, his son, Aman, is incredibly capable; he manages the huge workshop perfectly.
I had two more sons. If it weren't for Wu Hong, my two children would have been more robust if they had been full-term.
The villagers said they had seen Wu Hong. Her younger sister had knocked her unconscious and sent her back to her parents' home, but they didn't know why she had gone crazy.
It's all his own doing. Now his children's mother is very assertive, and he, as the head of the family, has no say at all. But this kind of life is too comfortable.
It's not just the eldest child who can't speak up; I, the second child, am in the same boat at home.
For the first few years after we married, Guilan had a very good temper, which I liked very much (and I still liked her later).
During the years my sister was rebellious, I would go up the mountain late at night to find pheasants for her, and later I broke my leg.
When she was carried back, she kept scolding me for being useless and calling me a piece of trash.
Guilan stood up for me, saying that my sister was being unreasonable and childish, but she ended up getting her face scratched by my sister.
From then on, Guilan became a different person. She stopped helping with housework. I often heard my mother scolding her, but I knew that my mother must have felt guilty.
The doctor said my leg couldn't be cured. I was utterly despondent and even considered suicide. After all, living was just a burden. Guilan could remarry after I died and wouldn't have to live such a miserable life.
I was stopped several times, until she threatened to kill herself once, and then I never dared to do it again.
When I'm paralyzed in bed with nothing to do, I do some small wood carvings. I loved this when I was little, and my younger sister also liked these little things, but she hasn't come to see me since I became paralyzed.
I have a son, he's very cute and his name is Xiaohu, but he's very afraid of my aunt, my sister, perhaps because he often hears her call me a good-for-nothing.
My sister has a near-death experience and seems like a completely different person; she even started talking to me on her own initiative.
When I was bedridden, I felt some resentment seeing my haggard wife and young son, but she was my sister.
One day, she actually asked her younger brother to carry me outside, saying she wanted to sunbathe with me.
The sun was warm that day, and my sister smiled at me so sweetly—something I'd never dreamed of since I became paralyzed.
My little wooden carving actually sold for money! My sister brought out all my things, and they sold quite well.
Later, she drew up a blueprint for me. The things on the paper were so beautiful. I pondered for a long time and finally carved it. In the end, it was bought by someone for a high price.
When Guilan received the silver, she burst into tears of joy and told me through tears that she had never truly blamed her sister, but only felt sorry for her husband.
With such a wife, what more could a husband ask for? I worked even harder to save more money to give my wife and daughter a better life.
My sister made me a wheelchair. When I moved around by myself, I was so happy that I wanted to stand up on the spot, but I couldn't. Being able to walk by myself is already a blessing, and I don't ask for anything more.
There was a very skilled doctor in town, I don't know where he came from, and my sister actually brought him home to treat my leg.
When Guilan heard that my leg could still be cured, she was even happier than I was. I thought I had misheard.
However, the treatment was very risky, and my family was not very supportive, but I resolutely said that I must get treatment.
My wife and children need me, and I must stand up again.
The result was ideal. I got back up, and my wife was happier than anyone else.
I let her manage all the money in the house. My mother would also give her daughters-in-law pocket money. I don't remember how many times she said she wanted to be my mother's daughter-in-law in her next life.
Xiao Hu is very easy to take care of; he probably loves reading because of his fifth brother's influence.
Guilan only needs to eat, drink, and have fun every day, and occasionally she'll visit our shop. All the women in the village are extremely envious of her, and I'm very proud of her.
She looks younger and younger, as if she's back to when we first got married.
Xiao Hu has gone to study in the capital. With his fifth uncle teaching us, my wife and I are much more at ease, living like carefree immortals.
