[070] Prevent the emperor from rebelling
"Damn it! Everyone is controlled by my wife, but I am controlled by my son all day!"
The farmland is endless, on the countryside, Fang Lujun carried Fang Changming on the concrete road, and kept sighing while riding his bicycle.
"Since I came back last night, I've been nagging, and I've never seen you like this... How could you be a son like this? Changming, don't you?"
Fang Changming hugged his father's waist and nodded vigorously, "Yeah! Yes!"
Carrying Fang Yanran calmly, she followed behind and couldn't stop laughing. Fang Yanran hugged her mother's waist and was also laughing secretly. She turned her head to look at the elder brother next to her and shouted in a low voice: "Brother, dad is still scolding you!"
"How do you speak?"
Fang Chang'an scolded with a stern face, "If you are a father scolding your son, can you scold me? That is called scolding. Education is for my own good. Just like me scolding you and Fang Changming, it's all for your own good. Do you understand?"
When I rode my bike forward, I was not easy to hear what I said in the front, but I could still hear what I said in the back. Fang Lujun turned around and glared at me and said angrily: "For your good? I would have known that I would have raised such a son. When you were a child, I would have given you to someone else to raise!"
Fang Changan laughed and said, "It's not too late now, so I'm not afraid you will not bear it."
"Why can't I bear to let it go? Get out now. I won't nag me alone, alas!"
Fang Lujun continued to sigh, "Tell me, what did you learn in school? What's the use of taking the exam any better? If you want to listen to your father, how can you do the opposite?"
"Whoever has reason to listen to whom, your son is right, you have to listen to it."
"I listen? Why do I listen?"
"I tell you, I'll send you there, and I'll go home by myself..."
Fang Changan didn't wait for his mother to answer the conversation, and then said first: "Dad, I'll go back with you too."
"Why are you going back with me?"
"Learn how to play cards from you. There are people in our dormitory who play cards. I watch them play all day long, but I don't know how to play. It looks quite fun. Teach me..."
Fang Chang'an winked at my mother so that he wouldn't be scolded by her mother. He continued, "There is cigarettes, dad, please teach me if you look back? I want to smoke too. I feel so cool when watching the boys in our school smoke..."
Fang Lujun said for a long time: "You are not a good thing when you go to school well, so why are you learning from him?"
"Learn from you."
Fang Chang'an said, "Grandpa smokes, drinks and cards, you smoke, drinks and cards, and your uncle smokes, drinks and cards. Although the old man doesn't smoke, he also drinks occasionally and loves to play cards. But no one plays with him in the town. Every time he goes back to the village, it's dark before he returns to the town. Isn't he just reluctant to go back to play cards?"
"Brother Changqing doesn't smoke, drink, or play cards. Sister Danran is a woman, and she doesn't care about it. Changming and Yanran are still young, and Changxu is even younger. Then the important task of inheriting family tradition can only fall on me?"
He spoke in an excited tone, as if he wanted to complete a glorious and great historical mission. "I can't let the long-standing family tradition of our Fang family be broken from me! I must learn it!"
Fang Lujun almost choked to death, but he also heard that his son was talking sarcastically and felt relieved. He knew that he had bad habits and had no prospects, so he hoped that his children would have a future. If Fang Chang'an really learned bad things like this, he really felt that there was no hope for life.
"I will be angry to death sooner or later by you! I will be angry to death sooner or later by you!"
Fang Lujun was beaten by his son General, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to repeat it repeatedly, emphasizing that he was a father, "You will be happy if you make me angry one day."
"How can we be? The three of us have to rely on you to earn money to raise our tuition, otherwise who will pay the tuition?"
Fang Changan speeded up a little, stood side by side with his father, turned his head and smiled flatteringly, "Dad, when will you go to work?"
"I'll beat you to death first!"
Fang Lujun was really angry. He had never been safe since last night. He rode his bike to come over and slapped the unfilial son. Fang Changan quickly ran away on his bicycle.
There were only two bicycles at home. He rode this one from Fang Dianqiu's house. The newly bought small bicycle was quite smooth. The main reason was that he didn't have to take people, so he rode easily and quickly hid on the other side of the road.
Cong smiled with a tolerant smile: "Okay, okay, don't make a fuss on the road."
"well!"
Fang Lujun sighed again, "Why did I get such a son? Ah? From ancient times to the present, how could he be a son like this? Tell me, how could he be a son like this?"
My grandma's house is Congtun, about twenty miles away from Majiagou. The whole family was not fast enough to ride it. It took more than an hour to get to the place. The door was closed and asked the neighbors that they had already gone to the ground, so they went to find it in the ground again.
Both old men are nearly 60 years old, but they are healthy and busy with farm work every day. They are giving pesticides to the pear garden. They are happy to see their daughter's family.
Fang Lujun and Congyun helped to work, but it was said that both of them helped. Congyun worked too much, but in fact, only the number of people was added, Fang Lujun was really useful.
As for Fang Chang'an and the other three running around in the Liyuan, it was enough to shout "grandfather" and "grandma".
During lunch, Congqing told her parents that Fang Lujun might have to go out to work. The old couple had long been unable to stand this son-in-law idle all day, so they naturally agreed. They were worried that their daughter would not be busy at home alone, so they all said that there was something to ask her to come and talk about it.
The father-in-law and son-in-law were drinking at the dinner table. Fang Lujun complained that he had a rebellious son and had an excuse to drink. Fang Chang'an reminded: "Dad, don't drink too much, there is still some serious matters later. You have to ask Uncle Li Chang's address, otherwise you won't know where to find someone when you turn back."
"Okay, okay, don't talk, don't talk."
Seeing that the rebellious son spoke again, Fang Lujun quickly interrupted, "Don't talk. I'm afraid when I see you talking now. Let me have a meal."
"Okay, then I won't say much."
Fang Changan picked up his grandfather’s wine glass and said, “I didn’t say anything anymore, I’m all in the wine. Come on! Dad, I’ll toast you!”
"Hey hey hey!"
Fang Chang'an was about to raise his neck and toast. Grandma and mother shouted in a stack of voices. Grandma quickly snatched the cup from his hand and spat, "It's not enough for a family to be drunk? Do you need another one?"
"Didn't I learn from my dad?" Fang Chang'an muttered, feeling aggrieved.
Fang Lujun really wanted to get this rebellious son drunk. After being troubled by him, he felt a little unsure, for fear that his bad example would really ruin his son, so he didn't dare to drink the wine.
"Chang'an, come here."
After dinner, Chang'an also helped grandma. When she packed the dishes and delivered them to the pot house, while her mother was cleaning up in the main hall, grandma suddenly whispered to Fang Chang'an.
The old man, who was nearly 60 years old, took out a rolled transparent plastic bag from his pocket, opened one layer, and there was another layer inside. After opening it, it was rolled up with banknotes and several coins.
The old man spread the banknotes in his rough palm, one twenty, one ten, one five, and one five. He dipped his fingers with his saliva. He pulled out the five pieces and handed them to Fang Chang'an, looked at him, took them back, put them back into the plastic bag, and then pulled out the ten pieces and handed them to his grandson's hand. He looked at him with some turbid eyes and told him in a low and gentle manner:
"You take it and eat enough in school, and don't be wronged."
Fang Changan could hardly hold back his tears, nodded vigorously, took the wrinkled ten dollars and put it in his pocket, "Grandma, don't worry, our school canteen is cheap and can eat enough."
"Oh, how good can the school cafeteria be?"
The old man sighed, carefully rolled up the plastic bag and put it back in his pocket, "It's too late today. Next time you come early, grandma will give you fried croquettes and baked buns, you can take them to school to eat."
"Okay, then I'll come back next week."
Fang Chang'an nodded and agreed, and emphasized again, "Our school canteen is really cheap. We can eat enough for 50 cents. Our classmates only eat 30 cents per meal. The school and the town are in charge. The canteen owner dare not sell things randomly."
In his previous life, Fang Chang'an often came to his grandma's house to pick up things every weekend, and he complained that the school canteen was unpalatable and expensive, but now he wanted to call the canteen owner the most kind-hearted person in the world.
Fang Chang'an went to the toilet, returned to the house, sat on the only bed at home, watched his grandfather talk to his father, and quietly placed two banknotes under the pillow.
One is ten yuan, one is five yuan.
They are all brand new paper money, and even if the old man sees it, he will never suspect that he has returned it.
On the way back, the family turned to Lizhuang and found Uncle Li Chang's house. After the greetings, Fang Lujun was half unwilling to do so. Half because he was not very familiar with him, he didn't say much except for the greetings, so he said it calmly.
The other party was a little surprised, but without hesitation, he immediately agreed.
Before leaving, Fang Chang'an reminded his parents to remember the phone number at the other party's home, and then left the phone number at the Fang Changfeng's home.
When he returned home, Fang Lujun didn't even touch the bench, and he slipped away after saying a few words. Fang Chang'an saw it, but said nothing.
After all, he is just the prince, so he still has to beware of the emperor being forced to rebel.
When Fang Changming returned home, he called out a group of children to play hide-and-seek. Fang Changan thought about it and decided to play with them for a while, but found it was quite fun, so he played for a while and was called home by his mother after dark.
Well, after all, you have to run around, which is considered exercise.
Fang Lujun didn't return home until after 8 o'clock, and was smelling alcohol. Fang Changan knew that his father had been frustrated since last night and must have to find fault with him. Therefore, he was particularly well-behaved. As soon as Fang Lujun entered the house, he never stopped being attentive.
He poured hot water first, added sugar, and brought it to his father: "Dad, you drink tea!"
Then I helped to beat my shoulders, "Dad, you're sitting and playing cards. Are you tired after so much time?"
Then he asked: "Dad, have you won the money?"
"I knew you must have won! Unless your brain and skills are too bad, what's the reason to lose?"
Fang Lujun liked to listen to good things, and drank a lot of wine. After being praised by his son a few words, he had long forgotten to beat him up. He held a teacup and started bragging about how good he played cards and how much he won in the evening.
In the end, he stuffed all the more than 100 yuan in his pocket to Fang Chang'an. It would be fine if he didn't want it.
"If you dare to say you don't want me, I'll beat you up! Damn, I've never seen anyone like this as a son..."
Fang Chang'an then took the money, turned his head and gave it to his mother, and smiled and said, "Mom, do you think my father wakes up tomorrow morning and still remember what happened tonight?"
"What else can he remember when he gets a cat pee?"
Ganqing was very surprised by his son's change, but he was also relieved that Fang Lujun often got drunk and wanted to cause trouble, so tonight was the calmest.
Fang Chang'an pointed to his father who was sleeping soundly on the bed and smiled and said, "Mom, do you see it? Next time my father is drunk, you just treat him like a child. There is no need to argue with him. If you are really angry, just lie to him, such as pouring him some vinegar, or asking him to write a guarantee letter, a confession letter, an IOU, etc."
Congyan couldn't help laughing and said angrily: "He is drunk, not stupid. Can you do whatever you can? You are his son, and he gives you the money, but I may not give it to him."
"It's all the same, it's all in your hands anyway."
Every time Fang Lujun gets drunk, he will definitely get up early the next day to cook, and he will try his best to do it to express his regret and apologies, and this time it is the same.
The next day, Fang Chang'an still got up early. His father was already cooking. Seeing that he was getting up so early, he was a little surprised. His tone was particularly gentle and friendly, and he smiled and said, "Chang'an gets up so early? Wash your face and brush your teeth, and the meal will be ready soon."
Fang Chang'an smiled and said, "I'll go out for a walk."
After a walk around, I heard that my father in the inner room was asking my mother to get up with kind words, apologizing and showing kindness, and finally asked in a low voice: "Hey, I came back yesterday, have you touched my clothes? Where did I go for more than 100 yuan?"
Relaxed and said angrily: "Why should I touch your clothes? Maybe where did I throw them away."
"It's impossible to fall off. I put it in my pants pocket... I'm still there when I came back..."
Fang Chang'an came back from brushing his teeth and washing his face. Fang Lujun had already shouted Fang Changming and Fang Yanran, and was still asking: "Dad came back yesterday. Have you seen your mother turn over his father's pants?"
The two of them instantly understood what their father was chasing. Looking at the elder brother who had just walked into the house, Fang Changming shook his head and said, "I didn't see it."
