Chapter 20 Tian Youfu's Hope
...

Tian Youfu had a good time.

Back then, when Tian Youfu was the leader of the group, who in Furong Village didn't look at him highly?
At that time, even Qian Dafa, who is now the most beautiful in Furong Village, was Tian Youfu's younger brother, and he followed Tian Youfu every day.

If it hadn't been for seven years ago, Qian Dafa's village party secretary would definitely belong to Tian Youfu.

It's a pity that if you make a careless move, you will lose everything!

The deposit is gone.

The house is gone.

My wife is gone too.

Still owed a butt foreign debt.

Today, Tian Youfu can only rent the old house of a loyal younger brother, with a useless leg, and a girl who dare not even leave the house, barely getting by, with no hope in sight.

but--

That was just before.

Now Tian Youfu has found hope!

……

After seeing off Xu Kai and the others, Tian Youfu said to Tian Haitang in high spirits: "Go and cook two hard vegetables for Dad, and then give Dad a big bowl of the rice wine you brewed."

Tian Haitang heard the words, and silently went to stir-fry two meat, two vegetarian and four side dishes for Tian Youfu, made a bowl of soup, and scooped up a large bowl of rice wine made by her.

Tian Haitang's grandfather was a village cook, good at farm work, and also weaves bamboo ware. Neighbors are always willing to ask Tian Haitang's grandfather for help when they have weddings and funerals.

And when grandpa was cooking, Tian Haitang was on the sidelines helping grandpa.

In addition, when Tian Haitang was a child, she worked as a carpenter with her grandfather, cooked with her grandmother, and went to work in the fields when the crops were ripe.

Under the influence of her ears and eyes, Tian Haitang learned a lot of skills in cooking, housework and farming.

After her father's leg was broken and her mother ran away with someone, Tian Haitang's heart was closed.

Since then, Tian Haitang has been looking for cooking articles and videos in books and the Internet, practicing her cooking skills year after year and day after day.

Over the past few years, Tian Haitang's culinary skills have become a school of her own, and ordinary ingredients can be made delicious by her.

Take the four dishes and one soup that Tian Haitang made for Tian Youfu as an example. Although they are all seasonal dishes, they are all delicious in color and flavor.

There is also rice wine made by Tian Haitang, which combines sweetness, sourness, bitterness, pungentness, freshness and astringency into one, and is clear, fragrant, mellow, soft, soft and refreshing.

After two mouthfuls of rice wine, Tian Youfu suddenly said something surprising: "Hai Tang, I want to marry you to Xu Kai."

As soon as Tian Youfu finished speaking, the bowl Tian Haitang was holding dropped onto the table.

Fortunately, this distance is not high, and the bowl did not break.

Tian Haitang hurriedly picked up the bowl and continued to serve Tian Youfu soup.

Tian Youfu saw through the dim light that Tian Haitang not only panicked, but also two red clouds appeared on her pretty face.

This made Tian Youfu more confident.

Tian Youfu took another sip of rice wine and ate two mouthfuls of side dishes before continuing:
"Although you are only 19 and have not yet reached the legal marriage age, there are not a few rural people who marry at your age. Many people even get married when they are 14 or 5."

"However, don't think that your father is so anxious to marry you because he doesn't like you or wants to evade the responsibility of raising you."

"Although your father is poor and incompetent, he is not so irresponsible."

After a pause, Tian Youfu continued:
"The reason why I want to marry you to Xu Kai is because I think Xu Kai is the most suitable for you."

"Yes, Xu Kai has been in prison. He is 12 years older than you, and he has a child who is almost 11 years old."

"But in my opinion, none of these are problems."

"What happened to being in prison?"

"Gou Jian was in prison, but he suffered a great deal, destroyed Wu, made an alliance in Xuzhou, moved the capital to Langya, and dominated the Central Plains!"

"Cao Cao was imprisoned, but he attacked Dong Zhuo, defeated Yuan Shao, unified the northern part of the Central Plains, and laid the foundation for the Cao Wei regime!"

"Zhao Kuangyin has also been in prison, but he established the Song Dynasty, ended the chaos of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, destroyed Jingnan, Wuping, Houshu, Southern Han and Southern Tang, and basically completed the unification!"

"I've been in prison, but it's really nothing. The great hero doesn't ask where he came from!"

After calming down, Tian Youfu said leisurely:
"People in the village say that you are sick, but I know that you are not sick at all. You were scared by those who asked for bills when you were young, and you lacked a sense of security. That's why you are afraid of contacting people."

"I admit that I am timid, incompetent, and have caused so much trouble. I am so angry with your grandparents, and ran away with anger at your mother, and cast a huge shadow on your childhood. I am not worthy to be Son of man, unworthy to be a husband, unworthy to be a father."

While talking, Tian Youfu shed tears: "Nine years have passed, and I still can't protect you, give you a sense of security, and make you dare not even leave the house..."

It is not hard to hear from Tian Youfu's words that he blames himself.

But soon, Tian Youfu raised his tone and said:

"So, a long time ago, I thought that I must find you a husband who can protect you and let him give you a sense of security."

"I saw Xu Kai protecting you so well on the bus today. At that time, I wondered, did the person I was waiting for show up?"

While drinking, Tian Youfu said with a smile, "I've been observing Xu Kai all day long."

"As a result, I am very satisfied with everything Xu Kai did."

"Responsible, courageous, aware of current affairs, understands trade-offs, has vision, and values ​​love and righteousness."

"This is the son-in-law that Tian Youfu wants!"

"What's wrong with being 12 years older, I know it hurts when I'm older!"

"What's wrong with having a daughter, you just... just treat his daughter as your sister, or else!"

"..."

"If you can marry Xu Kai, I will die in peace."

"No, I can't die, I have to witness your happy life."

"I heard people say that your mother is not doing well now. That person thinks your mother is old and your mother is not in good health. He always beats your mother and sometimes doesn't give your mother food. If you can marry Xu Kai, Xu Kai pulled me, asked me to pay back all the money I owe, and buy a house, and I will take your mother back, so I, Tian Youfu, will have a home."

"..."

Tian Youfu was drunk and fell asleep lying on the table.

Tian Haitang took a piece of clothing to cover Tian Youfu, and then lightly picked up the dishes.

But putting it away, Tian Haitang remembered what Tian Youfu said just now about marrying her to Xu Kai.

Immediately afterwards, Tian Haitang remembered the scenes of Xu Kai rescuing her on the bus, Xu Kai's reliable back, and the sense of steadfastness she had never had in her heart when Xu Kai stood beside her.

Before he knew it, Tian Haitang's face became hot, and his heartbeat began to speed up.

"Will he really be my husband?"

Tian Haitang's voice is as beautiful as a lark.

It's a pity that no one in this world has heard Tian Haitang's voice, including his father Tian Youfu...
