Chapter 122: The Purpose of the White Cardamom
At night, no matter how reluctant Bai Wei was, she had to sleep in the same bed with Bai Ko.
Because although the white house has extra rooms, there is no extra bedding.
Fortunately, there was Bai Shao sleeping in the middle, and the three of them slept on a big bed, and they finally got along.
Early the next morning, Bai Shao and Bai Wei got up very early, and Da Tie's daughter-in-law and Da Chunniang were busy in the yard with the food to be sold today, the sound of clanging woke Bai Ko, she opened her eyes a little reluctantly, looked at her right hand that was wrapped into a zongzi, struggled to roll off the bed, pushed open the door with one hand, and greeted everyone with a sweet smile.
"Yo, the patient is awake and can go to the ground." Bai Wei couldn't help but sneer.
Yesterday I said that it hurt and I couldn't move, so I used this as an excuse to stay in the white house.
Now that his hand is injured, he doesn't even pretend to be it, and he appears in front of everyone generously.
Do you probably think that if you hurt your hand, you can justifiably stay in the white house?
Bai Wei expressed disdain for this.
"Good morning, sister Wei'er." Bai Ko raised her eyebrows, not only did she not get angry, but greeted Bai Wei very gently.
Bai Wei ignored her and continued to work there.
Bai Ko was not annoyed, so he walked out of the house slowly, wandered around the yard, saw something, and wanted to help.
Because she had injured her most powerful right hand, of course the people would not let her help, and most of the time, she just walked back and forth in the yard.
Bai Wei was very unhappy when she saw her like this, so she chatted with Da Chunniang on the side.
The topic, of course, revolves around the man who lost face in the shop yesterday.
At first, Da Chun Niang and Da Tie's daughter-in-law didn't dare to talk nonsense because Bai Ko was the niece of the main family, but as Bai Wei talked about this matter unscrupulously, Da Chun Niang understood, rolled her eyes, and talked in a whisper.
"Yesterday's incident, the people of Shilipu know, many people say that this kind of girl must not be married, and it is definitely not a good ...... to stick to others in a hurry" Considering that Bai Ko was also in front of her, Da Chunniang replaced some of the more ugly words.
"Oh, my grandma knows about it, too? The two old men must be angry, at such an old age, they still have to worry about the juniors, hey......" Bai Wei sighed with a look of regret.
Da Chunniang is the neighbor of the Bai family, and she has the most say in this matter, "Yesterday, the old man quarreled with the old lady, and the quarrel was very strong...... I wondered if it was because of this......"
After speaking, he also quietly glanced at Bai Ko.
Bai Ko's face, which was originally not bloody because of the injury, was now red and swollen like a chili pepper.
Although she thought that this scene would occur from the time when she was determined to make a desperate bet, Bai Ko was a little girl who was not married, and she couldn't help but blush when she heard other people's various comments about herself.
At the same time, I was a little angry in my heart, because most of the people who ate in Shiwei Tian at that time were people from Izumo Town, and there were very few people in Shilipu, and the probability of news reaching there was very low.
Even if someone deliberately passed the news over, as long as the Bai family disagreed and said that it was a false rumor, everyone would only gradually forget about it, and the rumors would subside.
But now, the big quarrel between Old Man Bai and the Liu family is almost a real thing - Bai Ko's shame is true!
Really, why quarrel, why quarrel!
Bai Ko unconsciously blamed Old Man Bai and the Liu family.
"Oh, it turns out that there is such a thing, it's really ......" Bai Wei snorted twice and did not speak.
Bai Ko couldn't go on wandering around the yard anymore, so he forced a smile and said to everyone, then went back to the house, closed the door, and refused to come out.
"Haha." Bai Wei stood in the courtyard and laughed insolently.
Bai Ko sat behind the door, red eyes and gritted gums.
Now she really hates Bai Wei to death.
On that day, everyone was still busy in the shop, only giving Bai Ko a bowl of noodles at lunchtime, and then they didn't care about her, as if they had forgotten her.
Bai Ko was not noisy or noisy, as if it did not exist, and stayed quietly for a day.
It wasn't until it was getting dark, the things in the shop were almost sold, and the assistant cook and the shopkeeper were sent away, and when Bai Shao was counting the accounts, Bai Ko appeared in front of the counter faintly.
Bai Shao was counting money and keeping accounts while taking advantage of the afterglow outside the shop, when she suddenly felt that it was dark in front of her, she raised her head, and saw Bai Qiao looking intently at the box where she was loading money.
Almost subconsciously, Bai Shao backhanded, buckled the box, pulled a rice paper to cover the account, and then looked at Bai Ko, "Why did the big sister come out?" Why don't you rest in the house and come out and do something? ”
"Seeing that you have been busy all day, I feel guilty in my heart and want to come over and help." Bai Ko swallowed a mouthful of saliva, barely moistening his dry throat, and then said softly.
"No need, the eldest sister is a patient after all, so it's better to go back to the room to rest." Bai Shao rejected her mercilessly.
"Fifth sister doesn't have to be so ruthless." Bai Ko said quietly, "I'll help you get some money, I'm good at counting." ”
After speaking, relying on himself to be a head taller than Bai Shao, he stretched out his hand to take the money box in front of Bai Shao.
Bai Shao was shocked and grabbed it with her backhand, but she had short arms and couldn't grab Bai Ko at all.
Bai Wei hurriedly ran over, shouted, and snatched the money box in Bai Ko's hand, and stuffed it into Bai Pao's arms, she stood sideways in front of Bai Pao, looked at Bai Ko vigilantly, and said sharply, "Bai Ko, we are used to you eating and drinking at home, but you are so good that you want to rob our money, you are still not from the Bai family, let the master know that you actually robbed other people's money, and carefully chopped your hand." ”
"It's not anyone's house, I'm just kind to help." Bai Ko explained with an aggrieved face.
", I don't want your help." Bai Wei is most disgusted with Bai Ko's kind of person who obviously did it but refused to admit it, and pretended to be aggrieved.
"You...... You ......" Bai Ko was annoyed by Bai Wei's evil words, and after looking at her twice, he turned and left.
Bai Wei breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at her sister, "Shao'er, are you okay?" ”
Bai Shao shook her head, frowned, and said, "Why do you say she did such a big job, knowing that I couldn't let her snatch the money, but she had to rob it, she was scolded, and she couldn't get the money, this kind of thankless work, why would Bai Qiao do it?" ”
"Who knows, she's probably sick." Bai Wei didn't think about it so much, and only urged Bai Shao, "Hurry up and finish the account, I'm watching you here to prevent her from robbing again." ”
Bai Shao nodded, didn't speak again, only opened the money box, and continued to write and point there.
After the accounts were counted, Bai Wei held the money box and wanted to put the money together, and then go to the money bank to exchange it for silver tickets.
At this time, Zhao Long came over to close the shop with the door panel.
Bai Shao stretched her waist and asked Zhao Long, "Zhao Huyuan, where is my father?" ”
"The old man is in the courtyard, as if he is talking to the white girl." Zhao Long recalled for a moment and frowned.
"The White Girl...... Isn't it white cardamom. Bai Shao muttered to herself.
After a while, she suddenly remembered something and glared suddenly, and said hurriedly, "Quick, sister, go over, interrupt Dad and Bai Ko's speech." ”
Bai Wei didn't understand why she said this, but she also strode into the yard.
But it was too late.
Bai Ko stood beside Bai Chuanbai, looked at Bai Chuanbai with a tentative expression, and whispered, "Third uncle, I just helped the fifth sister to count the account, and the fifth sister said that only two taels of silver were in the account today." ”
"Two-two? Impossible. Bai Chuanbai was stunned, "I feel that there are a lot of guests here today, it should be the same as usual, it is four or five taels, how can it be only two taels." ”
"Yes, yes, it's four or five taels, and when I came, she only counted half of it." Bai Ko scratched her head a little embarrassed.
Bai Chuanbai smiled disappreciatively, "Look, your memory is not good at a young age." ”
"Haha, it's my bad memory." Bai Ko smiled weirdly.
At this moment, the hurried footsteps of Bai Wei and Bai Shao came from behind him.
She turned her head and smiled smugly at them. for a better user experience.
