Chapter 339: Old Man Bai's Confession
As Bai Shao expected, after asking Zhao Long to invite Lang Zhong to show Old Man Bai, Na Lang Zhong came out and told Bai Chuanbai the truth - Old Man Bai is indeed running out.
As for when, it depends on the will of God.
Bai Chuanbai was in pain and couldn't control himself, but under Bai Shao's persuasion, he still picked up his emotions, comforted Old Man Bai, and let Na Langzhong catch the medicine and decoction himself.
If it weren't for the dilapidated Bai family that had no clean place for him to live in, maybe Bai Chuanbai would have stayed there and served Old Man Bai carefully.
As for collecting land rent or something, it has been completely forgotten by Shirakawa Kashiwa.
Bai Shao and Wu were very helpless, but they still let him go.
At noon that day, because the Bai family had nothing to eat, Bai Shao went to the pork stall in Izumo Town with the Wu family to cut a large piece of pork, went to buy some vegetables, and returned to the Bai family with a lot of money, and cooked with the big iron pot of the Bai family.
Han Lian and Hexiang originally didn't want Bai Shao to cook, after all, all the ladies in Yanjing have never touched the spring water with their fingers.
But the problem is, they won't do it.
So, at Bai Shao's suggestion, two maids who had never been in the kitchen sat by the water tank and chose the dishes, and as for her, they tied a layer of cloth and made lunch with Wu.
The earthen stove made of bricks and earth has a large iron pot on it, and because it has been used for some years, it is a little dark on it, and there are some oil stains that cannot be removed.
However, it is precisely because of this layer of oil stains that this large iron pot can not rust, put some water, scrub it with a loofah pulp, and then scoop out the dirty water with a scoop, and so on twice, then cover it with a mulberry and start burning the fire underneath.
Because the pot is big and thick, the pot has to be burned for a while to heat up, and the vegetables can be stir-fried so that they don't stick to the pan.
Although they hadn't touched these things for five years, Wu was still skillfully tight, brushing the pot and cooking the vegetables in one go, and the two maids who watched were all stunned there, until the pork in the oil pot crackled and rolled, and they came back to their senses, and their eyes fell on Bai Shao, who was skillfully turning the meat with a shovel.
At noon that day, because Liu and Old Man Bai hadn't eaten meat for a long time, the Wu family made three or four small stir-fried meats in a row, and the fragrance spread out three miles away.
Bai Shao was funny in her heart, and at the same time angry that she had such a strange temper, so she deliberately picked up a plate that the Wu family had prepared a long time ago, and Shi Shiran sent it to Dachun's house.
Liu's person was extremely picky, and when he saw Bai Shao send away the plate full of meat, he immediately scolded angrily.
Seeing this, Hexiang, who originally wanted to leave with Bai Shao, pushed Hanlian and asked her to keep up with Miss's pace, while she turned around and jerked out the software from her waist.
The blade glowing with white light shook in the air, and suddenly slashed into Liu's mouth with lightning speed, as if it was about to cut off her tongue.
Liu, who was originally scolding, was so frightened that he quickly closed his mouth and went back to the hall with a whimper.
Seeing this, Hexiang smiled triumphantly, and then ran out of Bai's house and followed Bai Shao into Dachun's house.
Over the years, because the food has fallen for the sky, the life of the Bai family is not good, and the life of the Dachun family is naturally not much better, but Bai Shao didn't expect them to be even worse.
Da Chunniang, the spicy woman who is always smiling, is lying on the bed at the moment, her face is pale, her appearance is withered, and she looks as if she is about to breathe at any time.
Da Chun Da, the man who always smiled honestly, was sitting in front of the door of the hall at this time and smoked a dry cigarette, and when he saw Bai Shao coming, he didn't even roll his eyelids, as if he didn't see her.
Bai Shao remembered in her heart that Da Chun Niang was good to her family, so she still put on a smiling face and shouted twice at the two of them, "Uncle Da Chun, Aunt Da Chun, have you eaten lunch?" ”
Da Chun's father didn't make any move, just sat there, ignoring Bai Shao's words.
However, Da Chunniang groaned twice, stretched out her dry arm, waved at Bai Shao, and said weakly, "It's Shao'er here...... Don't pay attention to your Uncle Dachun, in the past two years, he has always liked to droop his face, so you should not see him. ”
"Hey......" Bai Shao responded embarrassedly, and put the plate of small fried meat on the wooden table in the hall, "Auntie, my mother fried meat today, let me send a plate to Auntie, and Auntie will get up and eat later." ”
"Heh......" Da Chunniang laughed twice, "It's hard for **** not to annoy me, and even give me meat...... Thank you for me. ”
"It's nothing, auntie." Bai Shao smiled, thinking about saying a few more words to Da Chun Niang and leaving, but at this moment, Da Chun Father, who had been silent, suddenly walked into the house as if he had seen something, and swept the bowl on the table with one sleeve.
The fragrant little fried pork fell to the ground, and even the porcelain bowl was shattered into slag, and it lay on the ground, crying its innocence.
Bai Shao was taken aback, and the Han Lian behind her reflexively blocked in front of her, looking at Da Chun Dad vigilantly.
"Eat, what to eat, get out of here, you're not welcome in our house." Da Chun's father raised his head and yelled at Bai Shao, "If you hadn't given her Laoshizi food for the sky, would our family have become like this?" It's all because of you, why do you still have the face to come here, get out of here, I don't want to see your surname white. ”
"Uncle Dachun." Bai Shao frowned, and said with some displeasure, "Even if Uncle Dachun doesn't want to see us, but the meat is innocent, and the aunt is not in good health, so she should eat some supplements, how can you treat a bowl of innocent meat like this." ”
"What innocent? You Bai family's things, even if it's dragon meat, we don't want it, get out of here, get out. Da Chun Daddy roared.
Bai Shao saw that he couldn't make sense, so he glanced at Han Lian, and the master and servant turned their heads and were about to leave.
It was at this time that Da Chunniang, who had been lying on the bed, suddenly staggered down and ran down, protected Bai Shao behind her with her thin and somewhat dry body, and yelled at Da Chun's father, "What are you doing, you have been drooping your face every day for the past two years, and whoever comes will scold you, what's wrong with you?" It's good intentions for people to give us food, otherwise can you live those years of eating and drinking spicy food? Now it's starting to blame people, when you made money, why didn't you blame people? ”
"Weirdos? I want to blame you the most, if it weren't for you, would this family have become like this? The more Da Chun Dad said, the redder his eyes became, and he actually pounced on Da Chun Niang's neck.
Although Da Chunniang was thin, she was not willing to be caught, and even scuffled with him.
"Auntie......" Bai Shao exclaimed, wanting to reach out to help Da Chunniang twice.
"You go, Shao'er, you go quickly, he's crazy......" Da Chun Niang pulled Da Chun's father's hair while saying to Bai Shao with difficulty, "You hurry up, as soon as he sees someone else like this, it's okay if you leave quickly, don't worry, he can't kill me, it's been several years, I'm still alive." ”
"Auntie......" Bai Shao was a little uneasy, but she also knew that what Da Chun Niang said was true - the more she was here, the more she would stimulate Da Chun's father, so after thinking for a while, she quietly withdrew from Da Chun's house.
Because she was afraid that something would happen to Da Chunniang, Bai Shao also deliberately listened at the door for a while, until the quarrel inside gradually subsided, she sighed and went back to Bai's house.
"Kicked out?" Because the two families were only separated by a wall, the Wu family heard everything clearly, and seeing that Bai Shao came back so depressed, she touched her head comfortingly, "Don't think too much, each has its own life." ”
Bai Shao nodded, picked up the broth by the stove and entered the hall.
At this lunch, everyone didn't eat very well, because Old Man Bai had been lying down for too long, and he couldn't eat meat anymore, so he could only drink some broth.
Shirakawa Kashiwa felt uncomfortable and couldn't eat.
It was Liu Shi who happily ate a big meal, and at least half of the dishes on this table went into her stomach.
When she finished lunch, she happily put the leftovers together, carefully put them into the tattered kitchen, and whispered, "There are enough to eat two meals, and I can eat two good meals." ”
Bai Chuanbai looked at the distressed and couldn't help himself, took Old Man Bai's hand and howled again, "Dad, you have suffered a great crime in the past few years, I'm sorry for your old man, let the second old man suffer...... Daddy...... Daddy......"
"Okay, third child, don't cry, it's a big deal, everyone is born, old, sick and die, I have suffered in the past two years, probably the punishment for me back then." Old Man Bai smiled, stretched out his hand and touched Bai Chuanbai's head. for a better user experience.
