Chapter 25 The Dong Family
Chapter 25 ·Dong Family
"That's not true." Dong Yuluo did not hide anything from Mrs. Tang, and told everything she knew, "You also know that when my mother married into the Dong family, the Dong family was still a poor family, and the whole family relied on weaving and embroidery.
We lived in a shop, and then we caught up with the good times. My grandmother had a unique vision and opened a weaving factory. Then life got better little by little.
Come on. When the Dong family was in its decline, the whole family had to stick together to support each other. When things got better, this disadvantage became apparent. My grandmother's family was fine, after all, my grandmother was shaking my head.
Even though my uncle is a powerful person, he doesn’t dare to say a word in front of my grandmother. Two years ago, he was responsible for
The accounts of the store under his jurisdiction were messy and there were mistakes, and his grandmother punished him by kneeling in the yard. His eldest aunt and his eldest and second brothers cried and begged to her, but her grandmother was unmoved. It was already winter, and the yard was very humid.
It was very cold and my eldest uncle was getting older. I was really worried that his health would not be able to bear it. After hearing the news, I rushed over to my grandmother to intercede. At first, my grandmother did not allow me to pass.
Asked, later I said that the eldest uncle is not a child anymore. He has sons and grandsons. If my grandmother does this, how will the eldest uncle be in charge of the family in the future? What’s more, the eldest uncle not only manages the weaving factory, but also keeps an eye on more than a dozen shops. Even if
He has many heads and six arms, but he cannot cover everything. If the accounts are wrong, the shopkeeper and the accountant should be punished, but what does it have to do with the uncle?"
Mrs. Tang listened very seriously, "What did your grandmother say?"
"My grandmother said that since the shop is in the hands of my uncle, he has the responsibility to manage it seriously. If something goes wrong now, who can we look for if not him? A thousand-mile embankment was destroyed in an ant nest. If you make a mistake today and don't punish it, it will be inevitable in the future.
Other shops followed suit. As for the shopkeeper and accountant, naturally they couldn't keep them. Not only did they not stay, but they also took them with them.
All my disciples and relatives were also driven away. My grandmother was very angry at the time, so I didn’t dare to say anything more. I just asked my grandmother to show some kindness to my uncle, and then my grandmother agreed to let my uncle kneel in the ancestral hall. I was afraid that his knees would be injured.
No, I asked the maid next to me to secretly deliver a thick cushion. Grandma knew it was from me and just pretended not to see it."
Mrs. Tang nodded and said, "Your grandmother is not trying to save face for your eldest uncle, but is she trying to save face for you? She is deliberately letting people in the Dong family know that you have a special status in her heart. Your aunt takes care of you."
Even though she asked her two sons to plead for mercy, she refused to let go.
I changed the place from the courtyard to the ancestral hall. From now on, people from the Dong family will know the severity of what they do to you, and they won't dare to treat you harshly." When she said this, she sighed with a smile, "If someone like your grandmother was born a man,
, then there must be something accomplished.”
"Hehe." Dong Yuluo said with a smile, "Why are you saying the same thing as her? She also said that if you were a man, the Tang family would definitely go further."
Mrs. Tang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's because your grandmother thinks highly of me. I don't have the ability like her. The Tang family now relies on your uncle and Brother Xun to support the family. I just have to live a few more years."
"In the past year, I have seen some things. If I can give you some advice, I can just say a few words. If you can't give me some advice, I can only watch."
Dong Yuluo continued, "With my eldest uncle in front of me, my second uncle, and my third uncle all acted cautiously and did not dare to make the slightest mistake in front of my grandmother. Even a confused man like my father became more cautious.
Already."
"This move is called knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger. You should learn some of it. You will also need it when you get married and take care of the family." Mrs. Tang explained.
Dong Yuluo blushed and smiled shyly, "Why are you so anxious? It's still early."
"It's getting late, Xue Ping is getting married this year, and you are older than her." Mrs. Tang was a little worried when she mentioned this, "I don't know how your grandmother arranged it, but is there anyone who likes it?"
Dong Yuluo lowered his head shyly and said, "Before I came here, my grandmother asked me to tell you that she already has someone she likes and has sent people to find out about him. If he thinks he is reliable, he will discuss it with you later and come to an agreement."
When Mrs. Tang saw that Mrs. Dong already had a candidate, and she wanted to discuss the decision with herself, she felt a lot more at ease, "The family your grandmother likes must be good. But even so, I want your uncle to inquire about it."
I can't wrong you." But then I thought, if Madam Dong sends someone to inquire, she will definitely find out clearly. It seems that she doesn't need to do anything extra, but if she doesn't do this, she will always be unable to
Peace of mind.
Mrs. Tang was a little embarrassed.
After all, Dong Yuluo was young and felt a little embarrassed to talk about his own marriage, so he talked about the Dong family's affairs, "Although our eldest brother's house has rules and regulations, the two outside houses are becoming more and more outrageous. There are those who are uneducated and ignorant."
The eldest grandson of Shu's second wife had a quarrel with someone in a restaurant over an actor and accidentally pushed him down from the second floor. Although his life was saved, his life was saved.
But he was completely disabled. The other party brought trouble to my grandmother, which made my grandmother very upset. The second bedroom outside could not pay for the compensation, but it was our eldest brother who came forward to compensate. Later, my grandmother asked my second uncle to go out to inquire, and I found out that the second bedroom outside was
They take the money and lend it out to collect interest, and the interest rate is so high that many people can't even pay it back. When the second house comes to collect debts, there are people selling their children and their daughters, and it's very outrageous."
"I can't write two words of "Dong" in one stroke. The wife's behavior is so unruly, it hurts the eldest brother's face." Mrs. Tang's face darkened when she heard that, "outsiders don't care about your eldest wife's wife, they all count."
If it falls on the Dong family, the family business and reputation that they have worked so hard to establish will be ruined by these ignorant prodigal sons."
"My grandmother also said the same thing. In the difficult times, the family had to stay together to survive. But now, if we continue to hold together like this, the eldest brother will be dragged to death by the second brother-in-law." Dong Yuluo said softly, "I
Grandma wanted to take advantage of this separation,
Dividing out all the two outer bedrooms is just a stretch. The two outer bedrooms are all living in the eldest house. If they really want to be separated, they will definitely not want to. In order to stop their mouths, my grandmother wants to divide the eldest house and let the third family live.
Both my uncles and my father went out to start their own businesses."
She still had something to say. Now the eldest uncle was naturally the eldest uncle, but the second uncle was astute and the third uncle had a good reputation outside. Apart from her father, the three uncles each had their own merits and were all rare businessmen.
Talented. If other people had such a person, they would have laughed secretly, but Dong
There are three brothers in the family. Although the brothers are harmonious on the surface, they are also fighting openly and secretly behind the scenes, and they will do anything for their own interests. Now my grandmother is alive and well, but one day when my grandmother dies, the three of them will definitely fight, and my grandmother will fight for her.
To prevent the brothers from turning against each other, they decided to separate the family.
Thinking about it this way, it was a blessing that Dong Yuluo's father was confused all day long.
Mrs. Tang nodded, "Your grandmother is the most fair person and will definitely take the overall situation into consideration. Although your father is not as good as the three brothers above, your grandmother will not treat him badly."
Dong Yuluo pursed his lips and said with a smile, "You are wrong, my grandmother just wants to plot against him."
