Rebirth of the Military Family Chapter 71: Having an Older Brother is Good

  "Little uncle, why don't you eat with us too? It's more delicious when everyone eats together."

  Bai Wenxin originally didn't want to join these kids, but after hearing the children's happy laughter, even he himself felt more relaxed.

  "Little uncle? How did you come?"

  Bai Haoran returned home from school and didn't find anyone, guessing that his sister and mother were all on the mountain, so he put down his bag and ran over. From a distance, he saw Bai Wenshen's figure.

  "Haha, big nephew is back, come give uncle a hug."

  Bai Wenshen liked this nephew the most, even Bai Haocen from Second Brother's family couldn't compare.

  Bai Haoran glanced at him in his arms and said, "Little uncle, you didn't get into trouble again, did you?"

  The look in his eyes made Bai Wensheng very hurt.

  "Little thing, how did you think of your uncle as that kind of person? Let me tell you, I'm here to help. Now it's clear, right? Your uncle is a good guy."

  "Bai Hao Ran pouted, 'Little uncle, why don't you just stay here and help mom with the work? You can eat as many apples as you want.'"

  Bai Wenshen didn't expect his nephew to turn against him, eating an apple without a salary was his own idea, and it turned out pretty good.

  "You little thing, you've even taken advantage of your uncle's kindness and added it to his account. Just you wait, I'll scratch that itch for you."

  The uncle and nephew were in a mess for a while.

  Geng Mei heard the sound of her younger brother and son laughing in the orchard, and she felt a bit relieved.

  In the evening, Bai Wenli hurriedly brought back the prize from the teacher's office and didn't even have lunch there. He was worried about the orchard at home. When he saw his little brother coming over, he was quite happy.

  "Fourth brother, you're quite observant, seeing that your big brother is not at home and knowing to come over to help. Hmm, not bad performance."

  Bai Wenshen felt a bit embarrassed, he came over just to clear his mind and also wanted to chat with his big brother, to get rid of the suffocating feeling in his heart.

  After dinner, Geng Mei mentioned something about her younger brother-in-law to her husband, and asked the two brothers to have a good talk when they went to the orchard at night.

  "Emotions, I said this kid how did he end up here, unexpectedly got dumped by a little girl, well, tonight I'll talk to him, what's the big deal, a real man won't worry about finding a wife."

  "Let's not mention our family's old three virtues for now, just look at us brothers' appearance, we're all outstanding, do you still need to find a wife?"

  After attending the model labor conference of the Ministry of Education, Bai Wengu's ambition has not dissipated yet, so when he talks, he is particularly heroic.

  Yu Sai likes to see such a spirited and elegant Bai Wenli, it seems that once men achieve success in their careers, the aura they exude is absolutely not to be underestimated.

  Sticking out his thumb at Bai Wen, he drew a quick gesture and said, "Dad, you're so cool..."

  "Come on, if your dad wasn't handsome, your mom wouldn't have fallen for him back then, and we wouldn't have been able to produce two beautiful kids like you guys."

  Geng Mei blushed and punched her husband, "You old rascal, stop talking nonsense in front of the kids. Hurry up and go to the orchard with your fourth brother, or else the apples will be stolen."

  Bai Wengui's eyes fell on his wife's pale face, which had a hint of redness. He felt a tickle in his heart and burst out laughing, "Alright, I'll go talk to Old Fourth, tell him to leave the door open for me tonight. Tonight, let Wenxin spend the night alone on the mountain."

  Bai Wengui made up his mind and went out with Bai Wenshun, while Geng Mei led the young couple into the house with some embarrassment.

  "Hao Ran, have you finished today's homework assigned by the teacher?"

  Bai Haoran shook his head, and Geng Mei quickly brought over a desk for her son to do his homework on. Yu Tian held Bai Wenli's book and dictionary, pretending to read.

  With them watching by their side, Bai Haoran wouldn't be able to slack off even if he wanted to.

  Bai Wenli and Bai Wenshen gazed up at the starry sky on the mountain and started talking about family matters.

  "Fourth brother, there are some things that I've wanted to tell you for a long time. You're still young and not working properly, which family's daughter would want to marry you? Today you eat but don't know where tomorrow's meal is coming from. You should also understand the situation now, a real man doesn't worry about having no wife, as long as you earn your own money and have enough security, there will definitely be many girls who want to marry you in the future."

  Bai Wenxin was somewhat skeptical, "Brother, I know what you're saying, but the good life is hard to come by around here. I reckon it's not my turn yet. Apart from farming, what else can I do? The girls around here all have their hearts set on going to the city, and there aren't many who'd be interested in someone like me."

  "Besides, it's hard to make money, isn't it? You've only managed to get back on your feet these past two years because of Bao Guo Yuan. You know what the situation was like before... Sigh, I'm afraid my days of struggling are far from over..."

  Bai Wengu smiled and put his arm around his younger brother's shoulder, "Fourth brother, isn't there also big brother? I've been thinking, after this year's apples are sold out, I'll buy a used car for you. It's cheap and won't delay hauling goods. When I have goods to deliver, the car will be mine to use, and when it's idle, the car will belong to you. You can either run transportation or haul cargo as you please, how about that?"

  Bai Wengu's idea undoubtedly ignited a spark of hope in Bai Wenxin.

  Cars, they don't have anyone maintaining private cars here yet, as long as it's not their own money, anything is fine except for old ones.

  Bai Wengui sighed on the side, "Actually, I wanted to buy a new car, but I don't have that much money, so I can only buy an old car and make do with it. This way, you'll also have a proper job in the future, work hard, and the money will naturally come."

  Bai Wenshin felt that this time he really didn't come in vain, his elder brother was really good to him.

  "Brother, thank you so much! I'm really lucky to have a big brother like you."

  Bai Wenli smiled and patted his head, "Xiao Si, do well and try to earn more money. Even the share for your third brother's marriage should be earned by you. Alas, thinking of your third brother, even the eldest brother is worried. Your sister-in-law has found many matchmakers but none are willing to marry into our family."

  Bai Wenxin didn't think much of it, "Big brother, what's wrong with you? Third brother's condition is not bad. Even if she were someone else's daughter, even if I had a daughter myself, I would have to consider it carefully. We don't have any money, so what could they possibly want from us?"

  What he said makes sense, but Bai Wenguang still thinks that their third child is actually quite good, except for having a bit of a hearing problem, and is actually quite handsome. Unfortunately, nowadays girls don't just look at appearances, they have requirements that his family can't meet for the time being.

  The two brothers chatted for half a day, and Bai Wenshin finally opened up. In the future, when he has a car, let's see who dares to look down on him.

  "It's still better with big brother..."

  Leaning against the white marble monument, Bai Wen let out a heartfelt sigh.

  Bai Wengui knocked on his head, "Little thing, I've always been good to you."

  Bai Wenxin curled his lips, not saying a word, but he didn't think so in his heart. His status had been threatened since the birth of that little girl. In the past, when there was only his nephew, his elder brother spoiled him, and whatever he wanted, as long as his elder brother could provide it, he would find ways to satisfy him. Unfortunately, those days were gone forever.

  "Fourth brother, you watch from the mountain tonight, I'll head back home and sleep."

  "Brother, don't be too aggressive, or your old waist won't be able to work the next day."

  Bai Wenli smiled and kicked him, "You talk too much, hurry up and go to sleep, I'm leaving, don't forget to come home for dinner tomorrow morning."

  This year's apple sales have a good foundation from last year, and many people already know that the white family's fruit is delicious, so they come directly to buy it. What's more, some people from ethnic minority areas even bring things over to exchange for apples.

  Some people brought a basket of mushrooms, and Geng Mei gave them a full basket of apples. Since they came with sincerity to exchange, she couldn't bear to treat them unfairly. Although there were still some problems with language communication, most people understood what was meant by gestures.

  There was also an old Kazakh man who brought over a piece of their own woven blanket-like thing to exchange for apples.

  Geng Mei didn't know the price, but just by looking at it, it should be able to sell for a good price. The exquisite handmade weaving is not to mention that it must have taken a lot of effort.

  Yu Sai couldn't help but feel a little reluctant to part with it as he looked at it from the side, it was very thick and solid. If this thing were to be sold in later generations, it would be worth a lot of money.

  Bai Wengui knew how precious this thing was and didn't hesitate. He drove the horse cart himself to deliver apples to Old Master.

  The old man watched as Bai Wenguang hurriedly drove the carriage and gave him an apple, and he immediately gave a thumbs up.

  During this time, Bai Wengui often wandered around their ethnic minority area and more or less understood their language.

  "Grandpa, this gift is quite valuable. If you want to eat an apple in the future, just come and take it directly. If you're not satisfied, giving me a string of meat is also okay."

  The old Kazakh man was delighted to hear that Bai Wenli could speak their dialect, and said with a smile: "Young man, you have good eyesight! This is a quilt made by our family's old lady. I've heard people from our place say that you do business fairly, so I'll exchange some more fruit for you to take back. You know that we don't have many vegetables there, and eating more apples is also good for your health."

  When Bai Wengong returned, he had an extra piece of mutton in his hand, which was given to him by the old Kazakh man.

  Geng Mei felt a bit uneasy in her heart, "Look at us, we've already taken people's things and now we're also taking a piece of meat, aren't we taking advantage of others?"

  Bai Wengu smiled and said, "It's okay, I've already talked to the old man. From now on, their fur will be collected by me, and I'll offer a higher price than they can get themselves. When I go over there, I'll bring some vegetables as gifts, and with frequent visits, we'll become familiar."

  Yu Tong rushed into Bai Wenguang's arms with some admiration "Dad, you're so awesome, you can actually speak the language of ethnic minorities!"

  Look at the girl with stars in her eyes, Bai Wenli burst out laughing, "That's right, who made me your dad? The girl is so smart, how could my dad fall behind? Not to mention Kazakh, even Uyghur, I can speak some too. I reckon after two more years of practice, I won't need to gesture and I'll be able to speak fluently." At this point, Bai Wenli still had some confidence.
