A family doesn't prosper without everyone's effort

  Friends, there are only two days left, and the role selection activity on Female Network is about to end. Although I know the result will be dismal, I still want to strive for it. Isn't there a saying that a soldier who doesn't want to be a general isn't a good soldier?

  *sigh* (whatever) b Alright, I admit it, I really want a good ranking.

  I'll work hard to write more articles, and the voting thing is up to everyone else now.

  Yeah, I'll be back soon, I will definitely work hard to update in April, yeah, I promise.

  It's the weekend, hahaha, let's have a great time!

  "Our family's affairs don't need your interference." Ling Xu's voice was tinged with anger.

  "Hey Xiao Xuan, don't you have any respect for your elders? How can you talk like that? We're all doing this for your own good. Now that Mo Xuan is ill and you're still young, you won't be able to take care of the land on your own. Instead of struggling and giving up, why not let us help you and your father with the farming? That way, when the time comes, we can all share a meal together as one family... how could we let you go hungry?"

  Liang Tian Tian couldn't help but burst out laughing coldly.

  This is really a good calculation. Seeing that Ling Moxuan seems to be dying soon, they came to occupy his family property. His father and son have not died yet, but they are already in a hurry.

  I thought Liang Wangshi was the only extreme product, but I didn't expect that Ling Xiuzai's family also had such an extreme relative.

  "Xiao Xue, don't think that your uncle is taking advantage of you. I'm doing this for your own good. Think about it, your father is ill and you need to take care of him while also studying the classics. Taking the imperial exam is a big deal and can't be delayed. Farming is not something you understand or can do well as a scholar, so let your uncle handle it for you." The man spoke with righteous words.

  Liáng Tián tián walked to the door and took a look, that person was over 40 years old, with slumped shoulders, one leg shaking like Parkinson's disease. He had an obvious sloppy appearance, and when speaking, he would occasionally wipe his nose with his sleeve, not to mention how annoying it was.

  This man is the son of Ling Moxuan's uncle, his cousin, named Ling Yong, a notorious figure in the village for his extravagance and debauchery. The property that his father had given him had long been squandered away. Now, seeing that his cousin's family lived in a grand mansion with vast lands, he thought of taking advantage of them. After all, his cousin was on his deathbed after half a year of illness, and his young nephew was just a bookworm who didn't know the ways of the world. In his opinion, giving him a meal was already doing him a favor.

  Ling Xue was all too familiar with this uncle's shamelessness. In his previous life, as soon as he had taken office, this man had used the family name to swindle food and drink from him every day, and even bullied others outside, until in the end, he had put a stop to it by locking him up out of righteousness.

  This is a mustard plaster, if you don't come down hard on him, he will never know pain.

  "Uncle, you're really good at calculating, aren't you? Are you waiting for me to move into your big mansion, live in our house, farm our land, and then give me a mouthful of food to eat? You think my father and I will still be grateful to you?" Ling Xiu's face remained calm, his eyes scanning the faces of those so-called relatives. He would remember each and every one of them, and when he rose again, he would make sure they knew that Ling Xiu, whether in this life or the last, was not someone they could bully.

  Ling Xu is a native of this era, with a strong sense of family. Even if he was a high-ranking official in his past life, he never thought of abandoning his family. In this era, it's hard for one person to survive without the help of their family. But at the same time, he's not a pushover either, and no one can bully him easily.

  Ling Yongke hadn't read any books, didn't have so many fancy ideas, his thoughts were very simple. He had taken over his older cousin's property, and when he kicked the bucket, all these things would thoroughly belong to him. At that time, Ling Xu that little brat, he'd give him a mouthful of food to eat, and others would say he was kind-hearted.

  Just as he was thinking that nothing was wrong, Ling Yong didn't notice anything unusual in Ling Xu's words and immediately shouted: "No need to be so grateful, who made us relatives? Uncle taking care of you is also a matter of course. Little Xu, look at this time, I've already found someone for you, let's move over here to live."

  Liáng Tián tiān today can be said to have seen, what is called stinky and shameless. But she didn't move, after all, for Lingjia Village they were outsiders, she wanted to see how this Ling Xu big brother would react. She had a faint feeling that Ling Xu was not afraid of them, because from start to finish he hadn't shown even a bit of panic.

  "Little sister, you're out too." Liang Mancang looked at Liang Tian Tian coming out and whispered: "Don't worry, with us here, we definitely won't let Brother Ling Xu suffer a loss."

  Does Ling Xu need to tell himself whether he is at a disadvantage or not?

  Liáng Tián tián took a glance at his two older brothers, and oh boy, these two kids, one was carrying a fire pan, and Liáng Mǎn Tún was even more bizarre, holding an iron ladle.

  "I'll go out and take a look." Liang Tian Tian said softly, but didn't return to the house.

  "My father has me to take care of him, so you all don't need to bother." Ling Xiu suppressed his anger, these were his so-called relatives, he was just a scholar waiting for the imperial examination and didn't want to offend them too much.

  "Xiao Xue, what are you talking about?" Ling Yong came over today to take advantage of the situation. He had been planning this for a long time and even secretly asked the doctor who treated Ling Mo Xuan's illness in the village. They all said that he didn't have much longer to live. Rather than occupying a dead person's house and bringing bad luck, it would be better to occupy it now. At worst, they could just drive them out of the main house and make them build a simple hut.

  "Xiao Xue, I'm doing this for your own good. You're only eleven years old and still need to study hard to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar-official. How can you possibly take care of your father? Look at him, his illness is getting worse by the day. Next spring's examination is approaching, and you'll be taking the test to become a xiucai. How can you possibly take care of your father then? And besides, next spring you'll need to go to the county town for the exam. Now that your uncle has moved over, he can take care of you and your father. We're all relatives, after all, and we can't let your studies be neglected."

  This guy even knows how to use moral superiority to bully others.

  The sentence goes like this: I'm afraid a hooligan has culture.

  Obviously came to fight for property, but said so righteous and majestic, it turns out that this play is applicable to ancient and modern times. It's just that the other person hasn't died yet, he came over to grab it, how thick is his skin.

  "It won't trouble Uncle anymore. Although Ling Xu is young, he also knows that filial piety comes first among all virtues. As a son, reading books is important, but it's not more important than being filial to my father. I'm a son, serving my father is what I should do." The slender figure of the youth stood upright, his back straight as a pen.

  Liang Tian couldn't help but secretly cheer him on.

  It's only right for others to show filial piety in front of Ling Xu's bed, but can you, Ling Yong, who is also of a certain age, still want to be the son of Ling Moxuan?

  Liang Tian Tian pursed his lips and thought: Can't you see that this kid is quite dark-bellied?

  Ling Yong's eyebrows furrowed slightly, feeling that this speech was somehow off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what the problem was. As a result, he heard Ling Xu continue to say: "Our family has long been separated and lived separately, Uncle, you are not even a biological brother of my father, so there is no need to mention these so-called caring words. Ling Xu is not dead yet, and it's not necessary for all the uncles and brothers to worry about my father's health."

  You're all rushing to serve the patient, are you all filial sons and grandsons?

  Ling Xue's words were soft but firm, causing the faces of the old and young in Lingjia Village to flush red. He spoke clearly, saying that he would not abandon his father for the sake of taking the imperial examination, and also subtly criticized others for fighting over family property without regard for face.

  That's really awesome!

  Liang Tian couldn't help but whisper "good" in a low voice.

  Everyone looked at each other in dismay, unsure of what to do. At this moment, a sudden cough came from the back of the crowd, and an old man with a white beard slowly walked over.
