Chapter 158: A Moth from the Bai Family

"That's enough, Wei'er, let's eat." Hearing Bai Wei's low voice, Bai Chuanbai frowned, and rarely scolded Bai Wei.

Bai Wei stuck out his tongue, hurriedly lowered his head to pick up the rice, and then winked at Bai Shao.

The sisters have been eating and living together for a long time, and their hearts have long been connected, and now in the blink of an eye, Bai Shao understands that Bai Wei is telling her to say it privately in the future.

As for now, eating is the right thing to do.

In the neat and bright pot house, three children and one adult all bowed their heads and cooked seriously.

After about the tea time, after seeing that everyone had eaten almost, Bai Chuanbai got up, served two meals and one dish in a bowl, and went to the room where Gu was located.

Seeing this, Bai Shao and Bai Wei hurriedly followed, and even Bai Yunshi, who was very tired, followed with a strong support.

In the newly cleaned house, the candles were burning, Gu was half-sitting on the head of the bed, and Wu was lying next to her affectionately, talking to her and not knowing what to say.

Occasionally, they would laugh lowly, and occasionally, they would bow their heads and wipe their tears together.

When Bai Chuanbai passed, Wu was wiping the corners of his eyes, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly took his hand and pointed to Tong Gu's and said, "Mother, I sent a letter to my family back then, saying that Mrs. pointed me out to him, and because I was busy at the time, I couldn't take him home to take a look...... Later, I didn't go back to Wujia Village, and now, mother, take a good look...... Speaking of which, it's been more than ten years, and my mother has only taken a closer look at her. ”

What do you say because you are busy, you can't bring it back, it's just that you brought the news to Wujia Village, but the old man Wu opened his mouth and asked for a lot of dowry, and the Wu family was angry, so he didn't tell them anymore, and directly married Bai Chuanbai alone.

These, Gu Shi is naturally very clear, so after seeing Bai Chuanbai, she is inevitably a little embarrassed, plus Bai Chuanbai is indeed a talent, and he doesn't look good, so he praised again and again, "It's a good one, this looks good, the two children are with him, they look really handsome, Xiaohui, your vision is really good." ”

Wu smiled a little embarrassedly, not noticing that Gu's words were about "two children", not "three children".

Bai Chuanbai noticed it, but he didn't expect the children to come after him, so he didn't correct it, and only handed the food in his hand to the Wu family and the Gu family, "Xiaohui, you guys eat first, otherwise it will be cold later." ”

"Okay." Wu was very happy that her husband was so caring and took over the job, and the two began to mumble again.

Bai Chuanbai scratched his head, seeing that he couldn't interject into the conversation, he was embarrassed to stand next to him, and simply thought about going outside to live out tomorrow's cool noodles.

After saying a word to the Wu family and the Gu family, Bai Chuanbai turned his head and left.

As soon as he opened the door, the three children standing outside made Bai Chuanbai's face turn blue directly.

"Peony...... Shao'er, you, why are you here? He panicked and stammered.

"Dad, we are just afraid that our mother will not eat well, so we want to come over to see if my mother wants porridge, but just after coming over, Dad, you came out." Bai Shao said with a very simple smile.

"Ah, just came here." Bai Chuanbai breathed a long sigh of relief, glanced back at the pot house, and said a little hurriedly, "Your mother and they eat very well, you should go and rest quickly, Xiuzhuang may be busy tomorrow." ”

"Okay Dad." Bai Shao grinned at him, pulled Bai Wei with one hand and Bai Yunshi with the other, and jumped back to their room.

Bai Chuanbai stood in place, seeing that Bai Shao had been very happy without any unusual expression, so he really put his mind at ease, turned his head, closed the door for Wu and Gu, and went to the pot house and noodles, preparing the noodles to be washed tomorrow.

As for the three Bai Shao sisters and sisters, they each went back to their rooms to rest.

As soon as the door was closed, Bai Wei, who had been curious for a long time, couldn't help but ask, "Shao'er, why didn't you tell your father, we followed him closely, why did you say that we just passed." ”

"It's fine." Bai Shao knew that Bai Wei was a little careless, and she was afraid that she hadn't heard Gu's words, so she covered up the past with a smile, "Sister, you should pay attention to grandma during this time." ”

"Ah, what's wrong?" Bai Wei was unexpectedly diverted by Bai Shao, jumped up from the bed all of a sudden, and said with a surprised face, "Shao'er, do you also think it's not good for our grandma to stay?" ”

"It's not that it's not good, but why does grandpa have to stay?" Bai Shao reminded, "Think about it, he asked our mother for money before, but our mother didn't give it to him, so he was going to sue us, and when he turned around and was taught a lesson, he wanted to leave our grandmother behind, if he had no purpose, why did he have to do this?" Do you believe that he really feels sorry for our grandmother? ”

Just looking at the kick that Old Man Wu did not hesitate to take care of in Jinse, coupled with the fact that he was not willing to give Gu when eating, he could guess that he didn't care much about Gu at all, if he wanted to say that for the sake of her body, he had to let Wu leave Gu to take care of him, this reason Bai Shao and Bai Wei would not believe.

That being the case, then there is only one reason left - and that is for money.

"How close my mother is to my grandmother now, how sad it would be if I let my mother know......" Bai Wei quickly understood and muttered, "I hope that my grandmother won't make any moves to disappoint my mother." ”

"Hopefully." Bai Shao sighed lightly, didn't speak, took off her coat, lay on the bed, pulled the thin sheet to cover her stomach, and closed her eyes.

Bai Weilian on the side called her several times, and when she saw that she didn't move, she thought that her sister was asleep, so she blew out the oil lamp and fell asleep.

In the dark, Bai Shao gently opened her eyes, glanced at the sleeping Bai Wei, and then at the moon bent into a crescent moon outside, sighed, and turned over.

Gu's attitude, the "two children" in Gu's mouth, and Bai Chuanbai's desire to stop talking have all become a layer of mist covering Bai Shao's heart, making people feel a little uncomfortable, but helpless.

In the same deep night, under the same dark moonlight, in Shilipu Bai's house, there was also a person who couldn't sleep comfortably.

At first, the people around me didn't speak, but then after tossing and turning for a long time, the people around me couldn't bear it, so they couldn't help but whisper, "Old woman, what are you doing, you keep turning around, and you still can't sleep?" ”

"Sleep, you know sleep." Liu reprimanded Old Man Bai in a low voice, "Do you know that Wu's mother's family lives in Izumo Town. ”

"Stay, stay, what's wrong?" Old Man Bai frowned, and said a little impatiently.

"What's the matter, I haven't lived in the third child's house yet, so I let those shameless people live!" Liu raised his voice angrily, "I am her serious mother-in-law, she didn't say that she invited me to live, but as soon as her mother came over, she let her mother live, what do you mean by this, as far as the group of old men of her Wu family can live in, why can't I live in it?" Why, why! ”

"Why don't you be quiet, the children are asleep!" Seeing this, Old Man Bai hurriedly lowered his voice and shouted, "How come the Wu family is also the maiden family of the third daughter-in-law, people can live if they want to, you, who are mother-in-law, can also live if you want to live, what are you crazy about here." ”

"I ...... I'm not going to live. As soon as he said this, Liu's confidence suddenly weakened, "Whoever rarely lives in her place, I'm angry, the third daughter-in-law, including the third child, no one has come to ask me a word or two, but her mother suddenly moved in, and she didn't say a word to me, just her Wu family's nest, I ...... I'm just afraid that my son will suffer! ”

After speaking, she was still a little puzzled and snorted in the direction of Izumo Town, as if this was the way to get out of the evil breath in her heart.

"Alas, it shouldn't be, there is the fifth sister and the child here, she is smart, she will always protect the third and third daughter-in-law." Speaking of this, the old man Bai sat up from the bed with both hands, and said with some concern, "However, the Wu family is not easy to mess with, in the first seven years, the third daughter-in-law didn't dare to contact them, and now let the fourth child poke out, the Wu family knows that the third daughter-in-law is back, and they will definitely not let them go easily, that is the big family drinking blood......"

"Yes, so we can't let them bully the third and third daughter-in-law like this." Liu suddenly clenched his fists and said viciously, "Let the third child let me keep the money, so that I won't be afraid of the Wu family's group, if I am not convinced, let Wu Lao Lai tell me, I won't believe it, I can't cure him." ”

"......" Old Man Bai glanced at Liu beside him a little speechlessly, did not speak, and lay back again.

"The third and the second are soft and easy to bully, if this is stained by Wu Laolai, the family will definitely be drunk. No, it's also my son, isn't it better to give it to me than to give it to that Wu Lao Lai......" Liu Shi was still chattering beside him.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the East House, and Bai Laozi put on his clothes and sat up, and said in a low voice, "Who is it?" ”

"It's me, Daddy." Outside the door, Shirakawa Qiang's low voice came from.

"Oh, Boss, come in." Old Man Bai stood up, unscrewed the door, let Bai Chuanqiang in, and then lit the kerosene lamp in the dark.

The moment the lights came on, Bai Chuanqiang closed his eyes, and after his eyes adjusted to the light, he opened his eyes, looked at Old Man Bai, and said in a low voice, "Dad...... Well, I have something I want to find you. ”

"You say." Old Man Bai sighed, "Is it true that the lotus root has not been sold recently?" Alas, lost the best opportunity, at the beginning of our local lotus root in Xieyang County did not come up, it is the best time to sell, I asked you to find a few restaurants to take the initiative to sell you are not willing to go, just squat in the market to set up a stall, how many can you sell? It's September now, and the lotus roots in Xieyang County have begun to be picked out, and it's really difficult to sell them again. ”

"Dad, that's it, we also bought the lotus root at a high price, and it looks like it's rotten at home, so we have to sell it, otherwise it will be cheaper and cheaper in the future, and the lotus root will be rotten......" Bai Chuanqiang lowered his head and said with a look of grievance, "I also want to sell these lotus roots in the restaurant, but people don't trust us and are not willing to use our lotus roots...... Now it really can't be sold, unless it's very cheap, but the loss is too great, more than two hundred taels of silver, and the loss can be less than fifty taels of silver, this is all the money of our Bai family, even the wheat money collected this year is in it, Dad, I can't afford to lose it......"

Speaking of the back, Bai Chuanqiang suddenly burst into tears.

It seems that the pressure is indeed not light.

Old Man Bai hugged his son distressedly, patted him on the shoulder, and sighed, "It's really not good, you don't have to do business, boss, after so many years, I can also see that you are not this material, in the future, our Bai family will farm honestly, and those grains can be sold for a hundred taels of silver every year, which is enough for the family to chew loosely......"

"Nope." As soon as he heard this, Liu immediately retorted fiercely, "I don't agree, if you don't do business, you just rely on the dozen acres of land at home, what can you do?" also a hundred taels of silver, that is a good income, if it is not good, twenty or thirty taels are often available, enough for the family to eat? Do you really want us to be the hairpins of the family or something, and we can't live a life when the time comes? A better user experience.
