Lao Wulin Renzhong was beaten into a pig's head by Lin Wan'er, but instead of getting angry, he untied the knot in his heart, his heart was a little clear, and he took Dabao and the three of them to play in the small courtyard.

At this time, Zhao Qian had just returned from selling tofu, and when he opened the door, he saw Lin Renzhong.

"Who are you?" Zhao Qian and Lin Renzhong asked at the same time.

"Why are you at my house?" At the same time.

The two began to stare at each other, Baoyu wanted to explain the origin of this Brother Zhao, but he was still confused, how could he explain it clearly. Lin Wan'er didn't know how to explain this scene when she saw this, but she suddenly wondered why this Zhao Qian lived in my house for some reason.

Zhao Gan pulled Lin Renzhong aside, and the two whispered, and the familiar Zhao Gongzi was accepted by Lin Renzhong, and asked Zhao Gan to call himself the fifth child with a smile. Lin Wan'er also wondered about this, what kind of magic did Zhao Qian have, and how could he grasp people's hearts just right every time.

At noon, the family had a meal, which was all ordinary meals, and the entrance was light.

Zhao Qian always felt that Lin Renzhong's eyes were staring at him, and when he looked up, Lin Renzhong lowered his head to eat, and he didn't even look at himself from the rest of his eyes, could it be that he was hallucinating?

In the afternoon, Zhao Gan was chopping firewood and cleaning in the small courtyard, grinding noodles around the millstone like a little donkey, but he subconsciously felt that Lin Renzhong was staring at his every move not far away, looking left and right, Lin Renzhong was not in a figure.

After grinding the noodles, Zhao Qian went to the front hall to pour a cup of tea and drink, and met Lin Renzhong, who smiled and said "Brother Zhao" dryly.

Zhao Qian felt that Lin Renzhong's smile was fake, and the "Brother Zhao" was also fake, as for where the fake was, it was really hard to say.

In this uncomfortable feeling, Zhao Qian spent the afternoon.

In the evening, Lin Qianyi came home from school, and Lin Hanlin didn't know where to run.

Lin Renzhong earns money in an oil store to support his family, and it stands to reason that he should have a heavier voice in the Lin family, but in front of Lin Qianyi, he is still like a younger brother, and there is a little awe in his words. Lin Qianyi didn't feel anything wrong, like an elder brother, he told Lin Renzhong some things.

At dinner in the evening, Lin Wan'er added two dishes, and specially took out a jar of sake, filled it for everyone, and said: "Today, the fifth old man is happy to go home, originally this jar of sake was ready to be drunk on Chinese New Year's Eve, but today made an exception for the New Year." After saying that, he pecked lightly.

Everyone also drank a little, and Lin Renzhong picked out some anecdotes on the dock to tell everyone, which made everyone laugh, especially the three of Dabao, who were even more happy, begging the fifth brother to take him to play. Lin Renzhong also agreed one by one.

After eating, Lin Qianyi said goodnight to his eldest sister, asked Zhao Qian some questions about his homework, and then went back to the house to review his homework.

Originally, Lin Renzhong's bed was in Baoyu and Yubao's house, but Zhao Qian came, and the dove occupied the magpie's nest and occupied Lin Renzhong's bed. Lin Wan'er had no choice but to let Baoyu and Yubao go to sleep in their own room.

At night, Zhao Qian and Lin Renzhong lay on the bed separately.

Zhao Gan's feeling of being spied on came up again, lying on the bed and turning over and couldn't sleep, Lin Renzhong on the bed next to him was motionless, breathing steadily, as if he was still facing away from him, but Zhao Gan felt that Lin Renzhong's eyes were looking at him in the dark, and finally couldn't help asking: "Old Five, why are you always staring at me when you have nothing to do?" ”

Lin Renzhong did not reply.

Zhao Qian snorted and stood up straight from the bed like a zombie, walked to Lin Renzhong's bedside, stretched out his hand and pushed the other party, and asked, "Old Five, get up, ask you something." ”

Lin Renzhong turned over, his face was no longer the smile of the day, but he said a little sternly: "You don't think I will really believe what you said during the day, right?" said that he came to Shanzhou from Shangjing to ask for poetry, but he was entangled, so he could only temporarily live in Lin's house, and rely on doing some work to earn some money and return to Shangjing. ”

Zhao Qian was exposed to the lie, couldn't help touching his nose, and said with some embarrassment: "You all know?!" How can that ......?"

"To tempt you." Lin Renzhong gave a direct answer, and then continued, "In addition, test what you are doing at my house, but judging from the events of this afternoon, although your motives are unclear, the value is undoubtedly positive." “

"Positive?" Zhao Qian was a little puzzled.

Lin Renzhong suddenly became interested, and explained: "Yes, it's positive. In the morning, you went out to sell tofu, according to my family's previous practice, a basket of tofu can earn fifty copper plates, but when you come back, there are still a few left, I calculate that you should earn about thirty copper plates, and at noon, you give the eldest sister thirty-one copper plates, which means that you have no private collection. At noon, you ate two steamed buns and drank a bowl of gruel, according to the proportion of the dishes, you should have eaten about one-fifth, and when converted into copper plates, you consumed about ten copper plates. In this way, you can earn twenty-one copper plates in the morning. “

Zhao Gan stood there, his face couldn't be seen clearly in the darkness, and his mood was extremely complicated.

Lin Renzhong paused and continued: "In the afternoon, you first grinded noodles, cleaned up, and chopped firewood, which can earn fifteen copper plates. After drinking a cup of tea, it stands to reason that it should not be converted into a copper plate for consumption, but you indulged Baoyu and Yubao, and secretly gave him some firecrackers without telling the eldest sister, burying potential safety hazards, if you are injured, it is not as simple as a copper plate, so you have to deduct twenty copper plates. In general, you have created a total of sixteen copper plates in one day. “

Zhao Qian finally couldn't help it, waved his sleeves, turned around and lay back on the bed, and said in a somewhat angry tone: "Sleep." “

Lin Renzhong habitually converts the people and things around him into money in the oil store to measure, and if he doesn't knock on the abacus and think about some things for a day, he always feels empty in his heart.

Today, Zhao Gan was not spared, Lin Renzhong did not have the consciousness to take care of Zhao Gongzi's feelings, and he was even more excited when it came to things like calculation and equivalent exchange, and continued to speak: "When you ate at night, you ate three steamed buns and drank two bowls of porridge, maybe you were a little tired from working in the afternoon, and you ate significantly more than at noon. But there is one thing that is unexpected, you are actually good at learning, and you can help the third brother with his homework......"

Zhao Qian snorted coldly and said, "If you really and Lin Wan'er are sisters and brothers, they are both people who get into the eyes of money, and they can't pull it up when they reach out and pull it." Old Five, don't talk about it, just tell me, I, Zhao Qian, Zhao Gongzi, have earned or lost a day. “

"Earned." Lin Renzhong's voice floated into Zhao Gan's ears, but the next sentence was tantamount to a thunderbolt, "You can earn three copper plates a day." “

"What? Three copper plates?! Zhao Gan's voice raised an octave, a little sharp, and the sentence was divided into three stages, the first stage was shock, the second stage was incredible, and the third stage was a little annoyed. A sentence contains a lot of feelings, like being choked by the throat.

Angry, Zhao Gan is really angry, he worked hard all day, it turned out that he could only earn three copper plates, Zhao Qian and Zhao Gongzi are only worth the third brother copper plate, ridiculous, ridiculous, and really hateful.

Zhao Qian's voice came from the room, interrupting Lin Qianyi's reading aloud.

Lin Hanlin, who had just returned home, was also startled by Zhao Gan's voice, as if he had tripped over something and fell to the ground, and scolded a few words in his mouth.

A few dog barks rang out in the surrounding neighbor's yard.

The Lin family's courtyard gradually calmed down, and there was no sound.

After a while.

Zhao Gan's voice sounded from the courtyard again: "Lin Wan'er, the gentleman doesn't move his mouth, don't I just speak louder, you don't have to do it, right?!" “

Lin Wan'er: "Louder?" I finally put Baoyu and Yubao to sleep, and your voice woke up, and you have to tell three stories when you wake up. If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you tossing around? “

Zhao Qian: "...... Talk to the fifth child, talk about life ideals and social aspirations......"

(ps: I added the last three paragraphs, when I was cooking in the kitchen with my husband, he said a few words, which was funny!) When he asked him what he was doing, he waved an eggplant and said, "I'm sorry to cut it, talk to it about life ideals and social aspirations first, and then do it." “）
