Abandoned Wife Heads the House: Farming with Adorable Baby

Chapter 224 Invitation to the School Opening

When Jiang Yichun started eating, his uneasy heart calmed down, thinking that Lin Ping'er quietly came over and asked Bai Ruozhu: "Daughter, what's wrong with you?"

Bai Ruozhu smiled and secretly glanced at Jiang Yichun, whose mask had been repaired and whose chin could be lifted again. She lowered her voice and said to her mother, "Mom, I am grateful to my benefactor. You didn't know that he helped us a lot yesterday."

Xiao Si looked at Jiang Yichun from the side with shining eyes, and seemed to admire the "hero" who knocked Bai Yibo away with one slap.

"Ah?" Lin Ping'er became more energetic.

Bai Ruozhu lowered her voice a little lower, and briefly told her mother about Jiang Yichun's actions of helping Wang's pulse, exposing Wang's lies, and then slapping Bai Yibo to the ground, who wanted to continue cheating.

"Oh, my benefactor is really doing justice for heaven, what a good man!" Lin Ping'er almost screamed, Bai Ruozhu winked at her, it was not easy to shout about such things.

Jiang Yichun was eating cakes and drinking soup there, pretending not to know anything. In fact, he could hear clearly with his ears bent. The more he listened, the happier he felt. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised. He was afraid that Bai Ruozhu would find out, so he hurriedly pretended His face was as straight as a normal person.

He thought to himself that this woman was not too tricky, and she was really grateful for his help. She could barely be considered a person who repaid her kindness.Jiang Yichun was eating the fragrant hand cakes, thinking a little proudly, and raised the corners of his mouth again.

Now Bai Ruozhu welcomes him very much, but when he sits over there, many guests are a little intimidated and dare not sit there.It's not that the mask he wears is scary, but that he has a noble status and is afraid of offending the nobles.

Fortunately, Jiang Yichun didn't stay too long this time. After eating and drinking, he went to tease Xiao Dengdeng, and then strode away.

It didn't take long for Wang Minglu to rush over. Bai Ruozhu thought to herself that it was good that Jiang Yichun was gone, otherwise it would be bad to bump into each other again. As for why it was bad, she didn't understand it, and she didn't spend time thinking about it. She just felt vaguely weird. of.

"Brother Minglu is here. I'll make you a hand cake." Bai Ruozhu greeted Wang Minglu with a smile.

When Wang Minglu saw Bai Ruozhu talking to him, he smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes. But he immediately waved his hand, "No, no, no, I'm still running errands right now. If people see that I'm not eating well, I'll send you a message." Just left right away.”

"What's wrong? Something happened in the village, right?" Bai Ruozhu frowned, knowing that things would not be easy.

Wang Minglu waved his hand, "There is nothing serious in the village. Your uncle went back and said that you had robbed the mistress. I was working as an errand in the Yamen, and people wouldn't ask me. I told the truth, and no one believed him."

Bai Ruozhu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wang Minglu helped their family. Wang Minglu was really a good person.

"Thank you, Brother Minglu." Bai Ruozhu thanked him sincerely.

At this moment, Wang Minglu blushed, and said a little embarrassedly: "Thank you for nothing, I should."

Bai Yihong came over and asked, "Minglu, what's going on?"

Wang Minglu secretly wondered why he got dizzy when he saw Bai Ruozhu, and he forgot to talk about the important things.

"My village chief asked me to deliver a message to you, saying that the village school will be officially opened on the first day of next month. You, the hero, must also attend. The Wu Xiucai we invited has been praising your table." Bai Ruozhu and her mother They looked at each other and were a little surprised. Is this a coincidence, or did the old man already know the news?

"The first day of the lunar month next month? My old man also said he would have a banquet at home, but he didn't expect to come with us." Lin Ping'er frowned and said.

"It shouldn't matter. The school will hold an opening ceremony in the morning, honor Confucius and Mencius, and then start to sign up for students. Your old house is holding a banquet at noon, so it doesn't conflict." Wang Minglu seemed to be very clear, and he added: " Mr. Bai also invited my grandpa to have a drink."

Bai Yihong listened to the village chief's request that he must go. His smiling eyes narrowed and he said to Wang Minglu, "Okay, I'll go there early in the morning on the first day of the new year."

"Then I have some errands and I'll leave first. Let's meet in the village in the first year of junior high school." Wang Minglu was really in a hurry, so he ran away as fast as he agreed.

Lin Ping'er bumped Bai Ruozhu with her elbow and said with a smile: "Look at how happy your father is. He is also a prominent figure in the village."

Bai Ruozhu covered her mouth and snickered. Her mother seemed to have whispered this to her, but in fact she was not teasing her father.

Bai Yihong's face turned red, he scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "What's the matter? The village chief gave me face, so I went to join in the fun."

"Dad, please wear our newly made clothes on the first day of the new year. Let's pack up and go back to the village in a decent manner." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile. Didn't the ancients value returning home in splendor?

Although Bai Yihong was still a little embarrassed, he nodded in agreement.

Bai Zehao came over and whispered: "Dad is very happy, little sister, thanks to you." He always remembered that it was his little sister who came up with the idea that made his father praised by everyone in the village. Sometimes he thought, why didn't he think of this? Woolen cloth?He is the eldest. If he could be as smart as his younger sister, the family would suffer less.

Bai Ruozhu winked at his eldest brother and said, "It's not my fault alone. My eldest brother helped my father make those tables and chairs. This good reputation is also based on practical matters."

"My little sister's words make people feel at ease." Bai Zehao giggled. He felt useless just now, but after hearing what the little sister said, he felt comfortable again.

In the afternoon, Bai Ruozhu hugged Dengdeng and took Xiaosi home to rest for a while. Halfway through, she remembered to visit Zhang's house, so she changed her route and walked towards Zhang's house.

When they went to the town to set up a stall, Zhang Liliang went out to do business. His relatives brought news that an elder had died of illness. Rong'er's mother had to take Rong'er to attend the funeral, and also went to help others. As a result, she left It's been several days, and I don't know if I'm back.

Rong'er Niang didn't know the location of Bai Ruozhu's stall yet, and communication was not convenient at this time. Bai Ruozhu thought about going over there and taking a look. If she hadn't come back yet, she would ask her neighbors to send a message saying that her home was like today. Set up a stall in the West Market.

As a result, Rong'er and her daughter didn't come back, but Bai Ruozhu asked a neighbor to find out, saying that Zhang Liliang had returned from doing business. After getting the news, he rushed to meet Rong'er and his daughter.Bai Ruozhu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Zhang Liliang was gone. It was much safer to have multiple men around her.

She hugged Dengdeng and walked back with Xiaosi. As she was walking on the road, she suddenly heard someone screaming from behind, followed by a man shouting at the top of his lungs: "Everyone, get out of the way. The mule is frightened. I I can’t hold it back!”

Bai Ruozhu was startled and hurriedly pulled Xiaosi to the side to avoid being accidentally injured. Just as they hid, a mule pulling a broken car galloped past them, followed closely by a middle-aged man. He chased after him, shouting with all his strength for people to get out of the way.
