Chapter 3858 Lafayette Tan
When Mrs. Liu wanted to catch the sixth steamed bun again, Yang Huazhong came back.
Mrs. Liu quickly took back her hand and stood up with a burp.
"Third brother, you are back? How are you? Has the old lady been persuaded?" Ms. Liu asked.
Yang Huazhong nodded, "I have persuaded you to stop now, but the old lady said that she will come to the theater tomorrow no matter what, and she will crawl to see the theater if she can. She said that she would die of suffocation alone in the room!"
Ms. Liu curled her lips and said to Ms. Sun: "What's going on? I didn't lie, did I? This old lady just doesn't worry..."
Mrs. Sun ignored Mrs. Liu and said to Yang Huazhong: "The old lady has been staying in bed these days. She is really bored. She has never had any extra hobbies in her life. She just likes to listen to big plays."
"Father Qing'er, what are you going to do?" Sun asked again.
Yang Huazhong said: "My father, my fourth brother, Yongxian Yongzhi and I have discussed it. If it doesn't work out, we will find a piece of land for her behind the curtain of the stage tomorrow."
"Put a blanket on the ground, and before the show starts, I'll carry her there and let her get into position first," he said.
Before Mrs. Sun could say anything, Mrs. Liu said first: "Oh, Third Brother, it's easy for you to say that. Not to mention that the old lady has a lot of things. When she listens to a play, she will poop and pee at one moment.
"It's hard to maintain,"
"And the theater troupe, why did they agree to let an old lady like us lie in the back and listen? The back is where the people in the theater troupe work!"
After hearing what Liu said, Yang Huazhong said: "As long as you give me money, there's nothing you can't do."
"Besides, I am Li Zheng of Changping Village. When a troupe comes to our village to sing a big opera, they have to get my nod."
"How about I give them some money and let them help the old lady at home?"
"As for the old lady's feces and urine, we, the juniors, can go over and take care of it. Fourth brother and sister, you are picking on the old lady in front of me."
"There are no bad parents in this world. You'd better correct your problem. Parents are the best role models for children. If you treat the elderly kindly now, your children and grandchildren will not take advantage of you when you are old in the future."
Take it seriously, I will leave it alone now, believe it or not, it’s up to you!”
After saying these words, Yang Huazhong left the house angrily and went to talk to the troupe leader.
Here, Madam Liu said to Madam Sun with a look of grievance: "Third Sister-in-law, look at Third Brother, what did I say? You're going to teach me a lesson!"
Sun smiled bitterly, "Your third brother is the most dutiful son in the world. It's not like you don't know him well, but you still criticize his mother in front of him. Don't you think you are deliberately making yourself uncomfortable?"
"I'm telling the truth, that old lady is really difficult to take care of..." Mrs. Liu said.
Mrs. Sun raised her hand to stop Mrs. Liu: "Okay, no matter whether it is difficult to take care of her or not, we have been her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law all our lives."
"In the future, you'd better say less of your complaints. We should be more lenient as human beings, especially towards the elderly."
"What your third brother said makes sense. Everyone gets old and gets sick and can't help themselves."
"Think about the last time you were sick and lying in bed, did you think that the sky and the earth were not working? Do you think that it would be great if there were juniors to take care of you?" asked Sun.
Mrs. Liu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, the third girl is not in the house, and I can't even drink water. At that time, I wanted to die."
Sun said: "That's right. Therefore, when we can run and move now, we can't despise the old man. Even if it is to set a good example for ourselves in the future, what do you think?"
Ms. Liu thought about it for a moment and said, "Well, that makes sense, that's all. I'll go back tonight and ask the old lady if she's hungry. If she is, I'll cook her a bowl of brown sugar-poached eggs!"
Yang Huazhong quickly made an agreement with the troupe leader, and then he went to the old house while the iron was hot and told Lao Yangtou and Tan about the matter.
When she heard that she would be able to sit behind the stage and listen to a play tomorrow, Ms. Tan was very excited.
She was stingy with praise, but this time she named Yang Huazhong and praised him from head to toe.
Old Yangtou was also very satisfied with Yang Huazhong's arrangement and asked the old woman to go to the stage to listen to the play. Old Yangtou also felt that it was very good.
However, Old Yangtou thought of another thing and hesitated a little.
"Old woman, what will you do when you have to poop and pee?" the old man asked.
Yang Huazhong said: "It's okay. Mom will go to the theater when the time comes. We'll go around in a while. Whatever she wants to do, we'll just take her down."
Ms. Tan waved her hand: "Hey, I won't eat or drink until midnight tomorrow. It only takes more than an hour to listen to the opera until I die. I can hold it in!"
Old Yangtou said: "Okay, since you said you can hold it in, let's make an agreement first and take you to the theater tomorrow!"
…
The next day, Tan really fulfilled his promise and started fasting from mid-afternoon.
When the sun went down and the sound of gongs and drums began to be heard from the village entrance, Mrs. Tan couldn't sit still.
"Where are the third child and the others? Why haven't they come to pick me up yet?" she asked towards the door of the house.
Mrs. Liu, Zhao Liuer, Cao Bamei and others were all in the room. After hearing this, Mrs. Liu said: "Old lady, don't be anxious. Third brother will definitely come back as soon as he says he will come. Is it possible that he is still deceiving you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Huazhong came, followed by Yang Yongxian and Yang Yongzhi.
"Mother, I'm here to pick you up. Mother Qing'er has already taken the blanket to the stage to lay the floor for you." Yang Huazhong said as he entered the door.
Mrs. Tan was very happy, lifted up the quilt and said: "I've already prepared it, I'm waiting for you, let's go, let's go!"
…
Mr. Tan was listening to the play there, and below, people from the old Yang family were milling around, escorting him at any time.
This scene really made the other old people in the village who were about the same age as Tan who came to watch the show envious.
"Sister Tan is really lucky. Look, this blind and lame person came out to watch a show, and the whole family came out to protect her like a queen!"
"Yes, Sister Tan had many wooden fish knocks in her last life, and that's how she got the blessings in this life!"
"Ever since she was young, she has had the final say in the inner house of Lao Yang's family. Later, she married several wives, and she can control the situation!"
"I can only say that the daughters-in-law of the old Yang family and the grandson's daughters-in-law, like Mrs. Sun and others, are all good people with kind hearts. Otherwise, with a temper like Sister Tan's, other people's families would have to quarrel every day..."
These conversations under the stage also reached Mr. Tan's ears from time to time.
Mrs. Tan squinted her eyes and sat there with a really comfortable look on her face, with a confident and proud smile on her lips.
An old woman came over to say hello to Mrs. Tan.
She is Yang Huamei's mother-in-law, Wang Hongquan's mother-in-law, and Wang Shuanzi's mother.
"My mother-in-law, is it comfortable for you to sit here and listen to the opera?" Shuanzi asked enthusiastically.
Mr. Tan smiled, nodded like an old Buddha and said, "Well, not bad."
