Chapter 132: Xiaolong wins
Qi Xiaolong won, Li Xiulan was very happy, she rushed over and hugged Qi Xiaolong in her arms, and kept praising him: "Xiaolong, you are so amazing!" Oops, I never knew that my son was so powerful, haha! ”
Qi Xiaolong was still in good spirits, but when he heard Li Xiulan praise him like this, he was a little embarrassed.
"Mother, this matter doesn't have much to do with me today, haven't you seen it? It's all the credit of the second sister. Moreover, those who followed also tried, not only me, but as long as it was a person. If you go, you can also move that big rock. ”
Qi Xiaolong spoke very objectively.
However, Li Xiulan was in a happy mood at this time, where could she listen to this? Now in her eyes, it is not the credit of any leverage at all, it is all Qi Xiaolong's own innate divine power.
She seemed to have forgotten that just a few minutes ago, she was scared to death.
Qi Erfeng settled the silver won in this gamble, although there were not many people who came, but the money won a lot, and he won more than 150 taels. It seems that these people are sure that Qi Xiaolong will lose, so they bet very big.
I didn't expect to capsize in the gutter, and when those people left, their eyes were red.
They were different from Li Xiulan, they remembered what Qi Erfeng said at the end, and they all said that they wanted to go to the private school to ask their husband for advice, what is the reason, why can a stinky child move a big stone that several big men can't move.
Qi Erfeng took the silver he had won, and happily came to Li Xiulan and Qi Xiaolong's side, just hearing Li Xiulan praising Qi Xiaolong. Qi Erfeng couldn't help frowning: "Mother, the reason why Xiaolong was able to move that big stone was not because Xiaolong had great strength, but because he had the knowledge to apply science. ”
Li Xiulan didn't know much about science, but she also knew that what Qi Erfeng said was the truth, so she stood up embarrassedly, and admitted with a slightly embarrassed face: "Well, Xiaolong is such a young child, where can he have that ability, this time it's all your credit." ”
"It's not my credit either. Mother, I am doing so many things today just to let you understand a truth, if you want Xiaolong to be better than others in the future, you must let him study. Reading can do things that ordinary people can't do, for example, the chefs you have always thought are very powerful, don't they can't move the big rocks in front of them today? They are not even as good as a five or six-year-old child. Qi Erfeng's voice was not high, just enough for her and Li Xiulan to hear.
Qi Xiaolong saw that the two of them were muttering, and he curiously pulled Qi Erfeng's sleeve: "Second sister, what are you whispering?" Let me hear it too. ”
Qi Erfeng glanced down at him and asked with a smile, "Xiaolong, you tell the second sister, do you want to go to study?" If you go to the book, you will learn more knowledge, and you can do something like this today. Not only can it be done, but you also understand why it is happening. ”
"Really?" Qi Xiaolong asked excitedly, and then, without waiting for Qi Erfeng to answer, he immediately nodded and said, "Hmm! I want to go to school. Mother! You let me go to school! I don't want to cook. ”
Seeing is believing today. Li Xiulan knew that what Qi Erfeng said was true. Although she still has no bottom in her heart, she has no reason to object to the two children in front of her who want Xiaolong to study.
"But what if ......" Li Xiulan still expressed her doubts in anticipation, "What if Xiaolong has no way to support himself after studying?" ”
Li Xiulan is still not optimistic about reading.
In the minds of people in this era, they always feel that 'useless scholars are scholars', and in their opinion, they can support themselves by doing anything, but if they study, they ...... Maybe I really have to be a gentleman in a private school.
"Mother, don't worry! If Xiaolong can't support himself in the future, I will let him come to the Drunken Immortal Residence as a bookkeeper. Qi Erfeng promised.
As soon as she heard this, Li Xiulan's eyes lit up: "Really? ”
If you can be the tent master of the Drunken Immortal Residence, it is naturally much better than being a chef in the Drunken Immortal Residence, and there is no need to smoke and burn.
"Of course it's true, can I lie to you? Not to mention anything else, today's incident is so unbelievable, I didn't lie to you, did I? Qi Erfeng deliberately looked unhappy.
Li Xiulan smiled from ear to ear: "Haha! Great, great! If Xiaolong can become the tent master of Drunken Immortal Residence in the future, it will naturally be much better than the chef. Good! Erfeng, listen to you, let Xiaolong go to study. ”
"Well, since you promised me, you are not allowed to go back on it in the future. Moreover, you and my father will have to pay for the cost of studying. This money ......" said, Qi Erfeng put the more than 150 taels of silver he won today in Li Xiulan's hand, "It's my second sister, a one-time subsidy for Xiaolong, don't think about taking money from me in the future." ”
It's not that Qi Erfeng is ruthless and unwilling to take care of Qi Xiaolong, it's just that raising children, if you don't let your parents do it yourself, it may not be a good thing for children.
That's why Qi Erfeng said the words that were so ruthless just now.
If Qi Erfeng gives Li Xiulan a signal now, making her feel that Qi Erfeng, the second sister, will be responsible for Qi Xiaolong's study in the future, including supporting herself in the future, then Li Xiulan's sense of responsibility as a mother will become weaker and weaker.
As the saying goes, there are many such examples. Even if Qi Erfeng and Li Xiulan have a mother-daughter relationship, the weakness of human nature cannot be tested.
Therefore, Qi Erfeng thought of a way to avoid it before it happened.
Only by letting Li Xiulan and Qi Jinshan cultivate Qi Xiaolong by themselves will they know the hardships and express their gratitude to Qi Erfeng for reaching out to him.
"This money...... Erfeng, I can't ask for this money, this is your money, you better keep it. As for Xiaolong, your father and I will definitely let him study well, so don't worry. Li Xiulan excused herself.
The money was not hers in the first place, so she naturally couldn't ask for it. Although Li Xiulan is a woman, after all, she is kind-hearted and has her own principles. Although this money was won by Qi Erfeng's gamble, it was also obtained by her wisdom.
She, a mother, can't ask for the child's money for no reason so plainly.
Qi Erfeng's heart warmed. Although Li Xiulan likes Qi Xiaolong's son very much, she and Qi Dafeng's two daughters are not unwelcome.
Thinking of this, Qi Erfeng forced the silver in his hand to her: "Mother, you just take it, there is a lot of money for studying, although I am now in charge of the Drunken Immortal Residence, but, after all, I am not the boss of the Drunken Immortal Residence, and I don't have any money in my hands." So, there aren't many places that can help you. ”
Li Xiulan nodded: "Okay, I'll take it for you first." ”
Li Xiulan silently put away the silver, and then said to Qi Xiaolong: "You must study hard in the future, but don't let down your second sister's heart." ”
Qi Xiaolong nodded firmly: "Hmm! I'll definitely study hard. ”
After speaking, he turned his head and asked Qi Erfeng: "Second sister, when can I study?" Can I study with the gentleman in the private school you just mentioned? ”
The gentleman in the private school that Qi Erfeng said just now was just talking nonsense, and she didn't know if there was a teacher nearby. However, even if there were, Qi Erfeng didn't plan to send Qi Xiaolong to someone else's hands so rashly. Her own brother wants to study, and she must choose a good teacher for him.
So, Qi Erfeng said: "Don't worry about it first, I'll inquire first, which gentleman is the best nearby, and then I'll take you to apprenticeship, okay?" ”
"Okay!" Qi Xiaolong said happily.
After studying, he will be as powerful as the second sister!
Qi Xiaolong's imagination of reading now is what Qi Erfeng looks like at this moment. In Qi Xiaolong's opinion, if he can study, he will be as productive as the second sister in the future, he can do a lot of things that others can't do, and he can also export chapters and tell a lot of big truths.
These are all reasons why Qi Xiaolong yearns to study.
Qi Erfeng was talking to Li Xiulan, and suddenly a shopkeeper came to look for her.
"Miss Qi, Miss Qi, no, someone is making trouble at the door of the Drunken Immortal Residence," the shopkeeper ran over panting and said.
Qi Erfeng frowned: "Who?" ”
"This ...... I don't know either, it's a woman. The shopkeeper spoke a little hesitantly.
Qi Erfeng understood in an instant, the woman he was talking about was probably Qi Dafeng.
Soon came to the gate of the Drunken Immortal Residence, and sure enough, Qi Dafeng was sitting on the ground and sprinkling.
"Someone! Come and see it! The proprietress of the Drunken Immortal Residence is bullying! Qi Dafeng sat on the ground and shouted loudly, and when he heard the movement on the way, he stopped curiously to watch the excitement.
Qi Erfeng frowned and said to her, "Qi Dafeng, what are you doing?" ”
When Qi Dafeng saw Qi Erfeng coming out, he immediately got up from the ground, rushed to Qi Erfeng, and asked viciously in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "What about him?" “
Of course, she was talking about Xiao Hongluo.
Qi Erfeng didn't want to pay attention to her. Where did Xiao Hongluo go, and what does it have to do with her Qi Dafeng? Do you really think you are Xiao Hongluo's woman?
Qi Erfeng raised his chin arrogantly: "Who?" I can't understand what you're saying. “
"Humph! Qi Erfeng, don't toast or eat. I'm giving you face so that you don't make a big deal out of it, if you don't know each other, I'm going to make a fuss to everyone, and when the time comes, everyone will know that you are a widow who doesn't abide by women's morals! Qi Dafeng's eyes were full of disdain when he looked at her, as if Qi Erfeng was really some kind of morally corrupt woman.
Qi Erfeng almost wanted to laugh, how could someone feel so good about themselves! It's obvious that there is something wrong with what I do, but I still think that others are not good people.
