Zhao Wentao glanced at Feng Zhangxia's pale face. He knew that his sister-in-law was unhappy, so he sighed and didn't say anything more.
In fact, he didn't want to take the grain from the several acres of land. After all, it was indeed a great advantage.
However, Zhao Baoshan said so, so he had no choice but to follow Zhao Baoshan's decision.
Feng Zhangxia's face was cold the whole time when the people of the first branch were having lunch together. She didn't want to show her face, but thought that it was a pity that she missed such a great advantage.
The dishes on the table were delicious with Jin Ju as the cook, but Feng Zhangxia couldn't eat a single bite.
She was upset, so no matter how delicious the food was, she couldn't eat it.
Feng Zhangxia held her bowl and didn't move. She sighed deeply and said, "Hey, what should we do now? The fourth branch earned a few acres of grain for nothing, and we didn't get a single penny. Alas … "
Seeing Feng Zhangxia's sad face, Zhao Wenshi sipped a glass of wine, then put down the glass. "Alright, we've already given the grain to the fourth branch. What else can we do? There's no medicine for regret in this world. If you hadn't stopped me and let me harvest the grain for father, the grain in the several acres of land would have been ours. "
When Zhao Wenshi didn't say anything, Feng Zhangxia's heart ached even more.
"How would I know? If I knew that you wouldn't let me do it, I wouldn't have done it even if you begged me not to!"
"…" Zhao Wenshi smiled, and drank another glass of wine. "So, sometimes, don't refuse to do it. The more you're afraid of losing, the more you'll lose. Look at our fourth brother, he's willing to lose. Didn't he make a profit this time?"
The corners of Feng Zhangxia's mouth twitched, and she said with displeasure, "I know, I know!"
Although she said that, Feng Zhangxia still didn't want to lose.
Feng Zhangxia finished the meal a little gloomily. She washed up early and went to bed.
Zhao Wentao and Zhao Baoshan chatted for a while.
He could harvest the millet in the fourth branch's rice field by himself, and he could also help harvest the several mu of rice fields in Zhao Baoshan. However, Zhao Wentao discovered that the rice grains in the second branch's fields had not been touched yet.
If they didn't harvest a few mu of rice, how could they just throw it away like that?
Today's food prices were definitely expensive. A few mu of farmland would be worth a lot of money.
However, Zhao Wenshui was still lying in bed after being injured last time. He had no intention of getting up, let alone harvesting the rice in the field.
"Father, it's time to harvest second brother's paddy fields. What should we do if second brother doesn't want to get up to harvest?" Zhao Wentao asked Zhao Baoshan to see if Zhao Baoshan could come up with any ideas.
Zhao Baoshan furrowed his brows and snorted softly, "Of course he harvests his own paddy field. Could it be that he expects others to help him harvest?
He has been recuperating in bed for so many days. In my opinion, he should have recovered enough to work in the field. "
"Father, I'm afraid second brother won't be willing. If he wanted to harvest the rice, he would have gotten up long ago. If he delayed for a few more days and it rained, the rice grains would be wasted.
Although second brother's paddy fields are not well managed, and the harvest is not as good as other people's, at least he can harvest some food. He and Tianyu can have more food, so their lives will be better. "
