Chapter 250 The estrangement has long existed

“Since mother thinks that taking care of the fields is a suicidal job, why does she strongly oppose my eldest brother to do it?”

Bai Yunsong looked at him with a stern look on his face.

“Second brother, why are you talking to your mother? Do you still have any dignity?”

"Is it superior or inferior? Sure enough, in the eyes of the eldest brother, I am just a servant, a slave, and an old laborer. I deserve to be a cow or a horse for this family all my life."

Bai Yungui twitched the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of ridicule.

“When my eldest brother was talking to dad just now, his voice was louder than mine, and he even dared to slam the door and show off his face. Could it be that if eldest brother can do it, I can’t?”

 The matter just now was mentioned to his face by his second brother, and Bai Yunsong felt a little embarrassed. Thinking about it, his behavior just now was indeed inappropriate.

 Now that the second brother is using it as an excuse, he really can't refute it.

 The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

 “Ahem…”

While a few people were in a stalemate, the old patriarch coughed and knocked on his pipe.

"What are you talking about? We are a good family, what are you two doing?"

“Dad, look at my second brother’s stubborn temper. He won’t listen no matter what he says.”

Bai Yunsong watched his father speak and felt relieved in his heart.

 He is the eldest son of the family and the successor that his father has painstakingly cultivated. Besides, he is already the head of the Bai clan.

If it weren't for filial piety, dad's words would be just a reference for him.

Hunted a hundred years after his parents passed away, the second brother's family was separated, and they were still two families.

 The old patriarch sighed inwardly when he saw his two sons staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

“You tell me what to do, what do you do, what are you doing with the pestle in front of my eyes? It makes people dizzy.”

 When things get to this point, we can only let them calm down first.

By the way, he also thought about how the two brothers could ease their relationship. If it doesn't work out, he can only consider dividing the family.

  No matter what happens, the two brothers cannot turn against each other and become a joke in the clan.

 At that point, he will no longer be able to teach well.

Bai Yunxi didn't know that her words had caused a commotion in her uncle's house for a long time, and that the estrangement between the two brothers had changed from secret to open.

At this time, she and her family are very busy. Today, they have to make cassava flour at home without going into the mountains.

There are two large vats in the backyard. One is used to store mashed cassava, and the other is covered with filter cotton to filter cassava flour.

The second brother and his wife are responsible for pounding the cassava roots, the fourth and fifth children are responsible for adding water and stirring, and Baiyunxi and Dushi are responsible for filtering the cassava flour.

 The family divided the work and cooperated tacitly, and it took most of the day to filter out all the cassava.

 Looking at the two tanks of turbid water, Ms. Li smacked her lips.

“Mom, can you make tapioca flour like this?”

Baiyunxi nodded,

"That's right, after filtering and leaving it overnight, the starch in the water will automatically settle to the bottom of the tank. Then pour out the excess water, and the rest will be white tapioca flour. Then take out the tapioca flour to dry. "

  Li nodded, "It's quite simple."

Du Shi pointed to a pile of cassava residue next to her and looked at Baiyun River.

“Mom, are these dregs still useful?”

 Hearing Du's reminder, Bai Yunxi was stunned.

“Our family does not raise pigs or livestock. If we do, these cassava residues can be used as feed for pigs after fermentation.”

“However, it can be used for retting, and it’s not a waste. It can be piled directly there. After half a month, it will be transported to the field, mixed with pine branches in the field, and used as farmyard manure.”
