Chapter 23: Inch by Foot

"The meat is good, my daughter's craftsmanship is good, fragrant, it's delicious. There are wild boars in this place, what a good place! The location of this shop is good, and when I go home tomorrow, I will redeem our shop, and open a wine shop here, with the care of a virtuous son-in-law, who dares to bully, the business will definitely be good. ”

"Smack!"

Sun slapped the chopsticks on the table, and Bai Hao'er quickly closed his mouth. The three juniors also stopped moving, and no one made a sound.

"Nothing in vain!" Sun pointed to Bai Hao'er's nose and said, "I really can't help it, even if Qiaoqiao is angry, I have to say it." You're so old that people look down on you! From the moment you enter my house, how will we treat you? Think back to what you did, we didn't let you go, and we were already worthy of you. For the sake of Qiaoqiao, I also advise my son not to worry about you. You said that you want to beg my son to help Gensheng find a future, but I pity the hearts of parents all over the world, and I didn't say much. But now you're kicking your nose in the face, and you're going to find my shop, do you want to have a face?! ”

Bai Nao'er said with a shy face: "Mother-in-law, what are you talking about?" I'm just a pair of sons and daughters, and they're all here now, so don't I have to come along, or I'll count on someone to support them. I'm so old, if I get sick and cause disaster in my life, I have to have someone by my side, right? ”

"You really don't want any face!" Sun was so angry that he couldn't speak, didn't look at Bai Hao'er anymore, didn't eat anymore, got up and went back to the house. Seeing this, Bai Qiaoqiao was so anxious that she was about to shed tears, and looked at Bai Hao'er and said, "Dad, you really don't give me any face, you are like this, let me behave in front of my mother-in-law!" ”

After speaking, Bai Qiaoqiao chased Sun into the house.

Bai Gensheng didn't eat it anymore, sighed, and said in an urn voice: "Dad, what you say on weekdays is what, I don't speak, you always think I'm stupid, in fact, I'm not stupid, I can't do anything about you, whether it's good or bad, you're my father, I can't talk about you, so I have to don't say it." But today, you've really gone too far. That's it, don't embarrass your brother-in-law, I don't want the future, don't worry about it, let's go home. Bai Gensheng got up and walked out, he was fifteen years old, and in the social environment of the Tang Dynasty, he was no longer a child, and he also had to have a face.

Seeing that the unhappy parted, Bai Nao'er was also a little flustered, and while reaching out to pull Bai Gensheng, he explained to Li Mu: "Virtuous son-in-law, I said casually, we can discuss!" What are you doing here, it's all a family, what's the anger! ”

Li Mu ignored him, glanced back, and saw that Sun and Bai Qiaoqiao had both returned to the house, and when they turned around again, they had already changed their faces. When Bai Hao'er saw it, his heart suddenly burst, and for some reason, he suddenly felt that Li Mu in front of him was not even better talking than just now.

"Gensheng, sit down." Li Mu said a word, Bai Gensheng hesitated for a moment, and sat down again. Bai Hao'er also sat down, Li Mu looked at the two of them, and said, "Now Qiaoqiao and my mother are not here, I will tell you two sincere words." ”

"Bai Hao'er, to tell you the truth, if it were up to you, I wouldn't agree to anything, the reason is clear in your heart. But Qiaoqiao is with me now, I don't want her to be sad, and I will endure you again and again. Gensheng grew up with me, although we didn't have a deep friendship, but he never said a word about me, never looked down on me, he was still Qiaoqiao's younger brother, just by virtue of this, I can take care of him. As for you, I really don't understand, how can you have the cheekiness to say such a thing? This shop, good or bad, I earned it, what does it have to do with you? You say you're moving here, why? ”

Bai Hao'er smiled and said: "This is not a family......"

Li Mu smiled and said, "You better say less about these words!" ”

Seeing that this trick didn't work, Bai Hao'er played a scoundrel and said: "Then what do you say, my children are here, you can't let me be lonely when I'm old!" Gensheng, you don't care about your mother? Bai Gensheng listened and said, "I didn't say that I don't care, I'll just go back to Mayi with you." ”

"What a stupid thing! Don't want a future? Tell you, you can't go anywhere, you just stay here for me, you want to go back with me, and I'll hang myself when I get home! ”

Bai Gen was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, and he roared: "Then what do you say, you are not forcing people and playing tricks!" ”

Bai Nao'er raised his hand and was about to hit again, but Li Mu stretched out his hand to stop it, and said, "Gensheng, your father is not a scoundrel for the first time, haven't you gotten used to it?" I have known his temperament for a long time. He won't let you go back, and if he goes back, he will definitely post it, and no one can stop it. ”

Bai Gensheng didn't speak, and he was angry. Bai Hao'er was a little colorful, but he said: "Isn't this a good and virtuous son-in-law, virtuous son-in-law, so you agreed?" ”

"Who promised, I didn't promise!"

Bai Hao'er was a little annoyed and angry: "Then you ......"

Li Mu smiled: "What's wrong with me, I mean I've seen through your temperament, and I didn't say that I would get used to you." Don't forget, I'm the county governor of Dingxiang County, except for the county order I'm the biggest, if I don't want you to come, I'll throw you in prison if you come, if you feel comfortable in prison, then you can live, I'll raise you. ”

Bai Nao'er opened his mouth, but he was speechless to refute, Li Mu can indeed do it, and he can do it.

After holding back for a while, Bai Nao'er finally relented completely, and said: "Virtuous son-in-law, if I beg you, I beg you, you are a good person to the end, just take me in." You see where I don't like the eye, I change, I really change! I don't want your shop, I'll buy it myself, you let me come, I'm not too young, you can't throw me aside! ”

"If you don't say that, it's over." Li Mu waited for this sentence, he took so much pain, in addition to considering Bai Qiaoqiao, there was also because he was short of people. There is a lack of people like Bai Haoer, who have a lot of eyes and no face and no skin. But the premise is that he has to let Bai Hao obey, otherwise his small actions behind his back will be annoying even if they have nothing to do with the overall situation.

"It's not impossible for you to move here, but you don't have to worry about this shop, first, I have other plans, and it's not convenient for us to live together. I can buy you a shop and let you move the liquor shop here without you having to spend a penny! ”

"Is it true?" Bai Hao'er smiled and said, "That dare is good, let the virtuous son-in-law break the bill!" ”

"Don't be too busy, I didn't give you a shop for nothing. Aren't you afraid that there will be no one to support you in the future, and I will solve this problem for you. I buy a shop, you come to open a liquor shop, I spend all the money, you are the shopkeeper for me, how much did your liquor shop earn every month, I will give you twice, the loss is all mine, you take a fixed amount of money, what do you think? ”

"This ......"

"If you don't do it, forget it!"

"it!" Bai Hao'er hurriedly agreed, lest Li Mu regret it. He thought so in his heart, there are not many people in Dingxiang City now, and he expects those who work on the construction site to not sell much wine. If he buys the shop with his own money, no matter how bad the business is, there will be a big risk here. Besides, how can Li Mu know how to run a wine shop, and when the time comes, won't the money come when the accounts are a little tricky? Take double for nothing, this is a sure deal, and the fool will not agree!
