Chapter 79
The two brothers didn't need his orders, and they worked extra actively.
Cleaning up garbage, moving sundries, sweeping the floor... they were truly working hard, which made Cao Weiguo feel a bit moved.
The Second Uncle took the stool home, which made the Second Aunt very happy.
"This stool is truly good; as long as it's painted, our family will have a new piece of furniture."
"This Cao Weiguo truly doesn't know how to live; he's willing to give such good things to others."
Hearing the Second Aunt's words, the Second Uncle frowned and said: "Don't talk nonsense; it's not good if Cao Weiguo hears it. If I hadn't let Guangtian and Guangfu go to help work, could this stool be given to our family?"
The Second Aunt curled her lips and said: "I'm just saying it at home; it can't be heard outside."
The Second Uncle said: "Although Cao Weiguo has a lonely temperament, he is a good person and knows how to do things. Having a good relationship with him will do our family no harm."
The Second Aunt smiled and said: "Also, when he got married, I helped clean up, and he gave me several leftovers, and there was quite a lot of meat in them."
Those leftovers improved their family's food.
The taste was good, and there was a lot of meat, which was harder than the New Year's dishes.
The movement of Cao Weiguo cleaning the room soon attracted the attention of other residents.
The calculating Third Uncle brought his family over to help without stopping.
The Third Uncle, like the Second Uncle, also eyed those old furniture.
Sweeping spider webs, wiping windows, moving things... they were busy working vigorously.
Those who didn't know would think the Cao family was tearing down the house.
Seeing this, the Second Uncle felt very annoyed; this Old Yan was actually coming to snatch benefits from him.
A stool couldn't satisfy the Second Uncle's appetite; he also eyed several other things.
At this time, other residents in the courtyard were also itching, but the Liu family and the Yan family had already occupied the territory.
The Eldest Uncle looked at the "numerous and powerful" Second Uncle and Third Uncle, and felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
These two people's salaries were not as good as his, and their prestige was not as good as his, but they had more children than him.
The older he got, the more he cared about his children, and he dreamed of children surrounding his knees.
