Chapter 36: The Gambling House

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you eat a mouthful of food? ”

Bai Susu walked in front of Bai Laohan and paced, seeing that he was hesitant and didn't know what he was thinking, he raised his hand and waved in front of him.

"Xianglian, Dad asked you a word, and you told Dad the truth."

Bai Laohan's tone suddenly became heavy, Bai Susu unbuttoned his apron as if he didn't know him, sat aside and raised his eyebrows curiously, and said, "What's the matter, Dad, if you have any questions, just ask." ”

Bai Laohan looked at her gloomily, startling Bai Susu, and for the first time he saw Bai Laohan looking at her with such eyes.

staring at her a little unnaturally, she turned her head away, and wondered, "Dad, what's wrong with you?" It's so strange as soon as I come back. Bai Laohan took a deep breath and said, "Let me ask you, how did you get the money for the noodle shop and the shop, I don't believe that you can earn a few hundred taels of silver just by selling cakes!" ”

Bai Susu was speechless, it seemed that he had come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, and the words of the people in the village had already reached his ears, in the face of these gossips, Bai Susu also wanted to cry without tears, and he couldn't tell it even if he had a long mouth.

"Don't listen to those people's nonsense, all this money is my money earned by my ability!"

Bai Laohan suddenly sneered and said, "Xianglian, you haven't lied since you were a child, but now that your wings are stiff, you have made up such lies, right?" ”

Bai Susu "rubbed", sat up, stared at a pair of beautiful apricot eyes, looked at him and said: "I'm not lying, why should I lie, I earned all this money by my own ability, and I will earn more money in the future, don't listen to others say that wind is rain, have your own opinions, okay?" ”

At this moment, Bai Susu did not speak to Bai Laohan in the tone of a daughter, but acted like a teacher.

Bai Laohan was so angry that she coughed violently a few times, Bai Susu noticed his tone, it was really a little disrespectful, and stepped forward to help him smooth his back, Bai Laohan pushed her with a look of disgust, and said angrily: "Don't tell me this, don't touch me!" ”

As he spoke, the coughing sound became more and more intense, but he didn't want to cough up a pool of blood, Bai Susu's eyes widened, and he wanted to step forward to help, but he thought of the excited appearance of the old man Bai just now, and he didn't dare to step forward.

She looked at Bai Laohan helplessly: "Dad, why are you so troubled, you believe in others, but you don't believe in your daughter, is there such a father in the world?" ”

"Don't tell me this, I'll just ask you, are you really buying and selling skin?"

For a while, Bai Susu's heart was filled with many embarrassing and indescribable feelings, as if he had been humiliated, and the whole person stood to the side in a daze, and only after half a sound did he come to his senses, suddenly sneered, turned his head, and left the room without saying a word.

"Xianglian ......" Bai Laohan saw her back and wanted to chase after her, but he rolled over from the bed with his head, and Bai Susu was already sad and couldn't help himself, running all the way to the direction of the town.

There is a small room in the backyard of her noodle shop, where she usually stays when she is busy, and when she returns to the noodle shop, she locks herself in the room by herself, hugging her knees and crying.

Early in the morning of the second day, Bai Laohan opened his eyes and watched Bai Zhongbao dangling in front of him, he raised his hand with difficulty, Bai Zhongbao turned around and said: "Big brother, you woke up, when I delivered eggs this morning, I found you lying on the ground, what's the matter with you?" ”

Bai Laohan didn't know what was going on with him, he felt paralyzed and weak, he coughed violently a few times, and asked, "Where is Xianglian?" Bai Zhongbao shook his head and said, "Don't mention her, people don't know where to run." ”

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he leaned over and asked, "Did Xianglian push you?" Bai Laohan's eyes widened suddenly, startling Bai Zhongbao, Bai Zhongbao straightened his back and said, "What are you looking at me like this?" ”

Bai Laohan squeezed out a few words from his mouth with difficulty, gritted his teeth and said, "Warning you, don't just talk nonsense." ”

"I'm not talking nonsense, as soon as I came in, I saw you fall to the ground, and she didn't know where she ran, she didn't care about you, how could there be a daughter in the world who did this!" Bai Zhongbao immediately came to the conclusion that Bai Susu must have pushed him, and then ran out overnight, maybe this family didn't want it anymore.

Bai Laohan explained weakly: "I accidentally fell off myself, and it has nothing to do with her." ”

Bai Zhongbao suddenly sneered, frowned, and shook his head: "Oh, my big brother, when are you still talking for her, now no one in the village knows that this girl's wings have long been hard." ”

"Get out, if you dare to talk nonsense again, get out of here!"

Seeing that he was emotional, Bai Zhongbao immediately calmed his emotions and said: "Big brother, don't be angry, your body is not good, I came here to help you share your worries, you think, if the people in the village pass it on again, she will really not be able to get married, last time I found such a good concubine for her, you missed such a good opportunity, who else do you say wants her?" ”

Bai Laohan thought about it, and there was some truth. He always felt that his daughter's family should not do any business, and those who showed up would always be pointed at, he looked at Bai Zhongbao and said curiously: "What do you have in mind?" ”

Bai Zhongbao sat aside with a hippie smile and said, "That's it, big brother, Xianglian is my niece, how can I harm her?" I think we should hand over her business to Ah Shuo first, and then my mother-in-law and I will introduce her to a good family business, so that no one in the village will talk nonsense. ”

Bai Laohan frowned tightly, feeling that what he said also made some sense, nodded and looked at him and said, "Then this matter will be handled by you, but Xianglian is taking care of the business of the noodle restaurant, and I can't persuade her." ”

When Bai Zhongbao heard this, he also made a difficulty, he had also seen the stubborn temper of that woman, how could he leave her business to someone else to take care of? But now the rumors have been forced to such a point, this woman has to retreat if she doesn't retreat.

He looked at Bai Laohan and said, "Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely have a way!" ”

The screen turns.

Bai Susu came to the Agarwood Academy with the hairpin in her hand, and waited for him to get out of class under the plane tree, and every time the two of them met, they would greet him under the plane tree, I don't know why she had gradually gotten used to it, if she couldn't see him all the time, she always felt as if her heart was empty.
