Chapter 524 Let go
Then, the second brother walked up to the eldest brother and said with a big smile on his face, "Brother, you see, building a house this time is really a great thing! I have been thinking about taking advantage of this rare opportunity to build a larger house."
"Think about it, we have a large family, and now this house is really a bit crowded. No one is living comfortably."
"Especially with the five of us in my family and the three of you here, we are all squeezed together every day. It's really hard to turn around!"
However, after hearing this, the boss couldn't help but snorted in his heart.
He thought to himself: What do you mean there are so many people in our family? It's obviously the five people in your family who take up too much space. We can't even sleep in the room. They are almost piled up.
My family of three can still live here. If anyone feels that it is not spacious, then they can help out.
The eldest brother has a clear mind. He knows very well that his second brother is a complete lazy bum!
But then again, I'm not much better.
So when the topic of building a house came up, the second brother said that he wanted to build a big one, but he didn't say a word about who should do more work.
Although he was quite dissatisfied with his second brother's attitude, the eldest brother did not show it on his face.
He smiled and agreed, "That's right, I thought so too. It would be great to build a big house. It would definitely be much more comfortable to live in."
"In that case, we must have a good discussion and decide how big a house we should build, and then divide up the work."
When the second brother heard this, the bright smile on his face seemed to be frozen by frost and gradually became stiff.
The yamen runners had already made it clear that there were people who would help build the house! It was said that these people were all professional craftsmen, and their skills were many times better than mine.
If that's the case, why bother spending so much effort and putting in so much work? Isn't that just looking for trouble?
It's really puzzling how the elder brother can be so stupid.
You have a nice and leisurely life but you have to work so hard. Wouldn't it be better to take a rest and enjoy life?
Anyway, if he wants to work, just let him do it alone and don't get yourself involved.
It's better to delay it for a while. After all, it's too early to talk about this matter now. It's just a waste of breath.
So the second brother said to the eldest brother, "Brother, I think we shouldn't rush into this matter. Why don't we wait and see how much compensation they can give us?"
"Then we can also take a look at how other people build their houses. After we have figured out all these situations, we can discuss together how to handle this matter specifically. Wouldn't that be safer?"
The eldest brother raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a disdainful sneer. As soon as the second brother stuck out his butt, he knew he was going to poop.
It was obvious that the second brother didn't want to take over this job at all, and he was still hoping that as long as he delayed it, the matter would be left unresolved.
But he forgot about his worried mother.
Before the old lady heard the news, she kept urging him all day long with a very firm attitude. She would not tolerate his delay and she wished that her own house would be the first one to be built.
"Second brother, do you know why the yamen runners have been coming to see me so frequently these days?"
The second brother was actually a little curious before, but the eldest brother was a big mouth and would complain to the eldest sister-in-law every time he came back.
In this way, even if the second child doesn't want to know these things, it would be difficult.
However, the second brother has always been unwilling to get involved in such trouble.
So whenever his eldest brother started to complain, he would prick up his ears and listen carefully, but his body would quietly hide far away.
After all, for him, as long as these things don't happen to him, he can just watch the fun.
So, facing the eldest brother's question, the second brother pretended to know nothing and shook his head slowly.
The eldest brother glanced at the second brother. With his personality of loving to watch the fun and get involved wherever there is something going on, maybe he already knew about this matter, but he still had to explain it clearly.
The eldest brother took a deep breath and said slowly, "Mom has sent people to look for me many times, all because of the house. She just wants to move into the new house as soon as possible, this matter cannot be delayed!"
"You also know that if you don't follow mother's wishes, you will suffer a lot in the future, so we must not only build this house, but also build it quickly."
Hearing this, the second brother couldn't help but feel a little angry.
My eldest brother is always like this, always using my mother to put pressure on others.
The second son couldn't help but grumble, "Mom is so old now, and you are the head of our family. It's still the eldest brother who has the final say on everything."
Although the eldest brother always complained about his younger brother's laziness, he had to admit in his heart that his younger brother had a clever tongue.
Every time she speaks, she always hits the spot in my heart. Her little mouth sounds as sweet as honey, which makes people feel comfortable listening to her.
All I could hear was the old man saying, "But, this matter really can't be put off any longer. I went to check out our house before, and it's uninhabitable even if we make do with it."
"It's easy to collapse, and what if it buries you? So we have to act quickly. The sooner we get this done, the better."
The second brother looked at his eldest brother's resolute attitude and listened to his unquestionable words, and knew that there was no room for negotiation this time.
So, he could only nod his head helplessly and said, "Okay, it's going to happen sooner or later anyway. Since you said so, let's do as you say."
While the eldest wasn't paying attention, the second one rolled his eyes at him fiercely, muttering to himself, "Why can't this guy spit out ivory from his mouth! He actually said such ugly words, what does 'bury me in there' mean?"
"Humph, I have always been a blessed person. Even if I really have to be buried one day, I will definitely bury you, a crow's mouth, first!"
At this time, the eldest brother saw his second brother nodded in agreement, and the big stone in his heart finally fell a little, and he felt a little relieved.
However, he knew very well that this was just the first hurdle. In order to get his second brother to agree to this matter, he had put in a lot of effort!
And the really difficult problems are still waiting for him to solve.
