Chapter 10

The members of the Luo family were very aggressive. Although Fang was dissatisfied with the elder brother's actions, he didn't want him to be hurt by the Luo family, so he hurriedly said to Uncle Luo: "Third brother, you misread the person. This is my elder brother. Today is the Those who came to see me and the children, nothing happened, it was all a misunderstanding, the children were ignorant, and spread the word randomly, which made third uncle go for nothing."

Luo Baining was not willing to listen to Fang's, and immediately retorted: "This bastard wants money to enter the house, and even beats his mother! Grab your mother's jade pendant."

In order to see a doctor for the child, Mrs. Fang bet a very valuable piece of jade to Li Langzhong, and when she turned around, she was redeemed by Mrs. Yao with a dime. Everyone in the village knew that Luo Baisu and Mrs. Fang proposed to separate the family that day. , there is a sensible person in the village who just shook his head after hearing this, and sighed that "every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite", and there is a person who loves to watch the excitement, and he laughed behind his back many times.This time Luo Baining yelled out Caimu's purpose without any scruples, and everyone understood what was going on.

On the one hand, I feel that Fang Shi and Luo Baisu look filial on weekdays, so they are small-tempered and fussy; I also want to take it.But after all, this is someone else's housework, and it's not easy for outsiders to make irresponsible remarks.

But Fang Caimu went to Luojia Village to show off his power and prestige, which was to sweep away the face of the Luo family. Uncle Luo gave Fang Caimu a hard look, and said to Fang: "Since he is the brother of the younger siblings, it's fine, it's just Fang. Brother, if there is something wrong next time, please be more polite."

Fang nodded repeatedly, and replied: "What the third brother said is that my eldest brother is leaving soon, and I will see him off."

After finishing speaking, regardless of Fang Caimu's objection, he half pushed and half persuaded him to the door, saying: "There are too many things at home, so I won't keep my elder brother. Remember to say hello to Dad when you get home."

Before Caimu wanted to say something, he turned his head and saw the strong men all over the yard staring at him in unison. He touched his nose, knowing that he couldn't please him today, so he walked away dejectedly.

Fang Shi sent off Sanshu Luo and others with good words, only Yao Shi and Luo Baining were left in the yard.Fang shi smiled wryly in his heart, waiting to bear Yao shi's anger, strangely, Yao shi didn't lose his temper, took Luo Baining, turned around and entered the room as if nothing happened.

Luo Tian suddenly felt strange, wondering when Yao's temper changed, and his temper became so good.

In fact, Mrs. Yao didn't change her temper. Originally, Brother Fang offended her, and she was unwilling to swallow this breath, but what Brother Fang said just now reminded her that the county was going to impose labor again, so she was more thoughtful. , Fang's attack did not occur today.

Luo Tian didn't even bother to speculate about Yao Shi's anomaly, she was worried about doing small business, worried that she would be soft-spoken, Luo Baisu and Fang Shi didn't take her seriously, and were about to brainwash Luo Ming, when Cai Mu came just now, Her plan was interrupted, and now she had just left, and she dragged Luo Mingdu to instill in her the way to make money.

Fang finally sent Caimu away, entered the room, and saw Luo Mingdu and sister meeting together, not knowing what to say, nodding repeatedly while talking, not at all frightened by what happened just now, His complexion improved a bit.

"What did you say? You said it so happily?" Fang asked cheering up.

Luo Tiandu's eyes were still covered with gauze, but he was already much better, unlike the sickly ones a few days ago, when he grinned in pain even when he spoke.

"My eldest sister and I are happy that we don't have to eat in the same room with grandma."

These words are from Luo Tiandu's heart.Although it's not good to eat by yourself, but it's better than watching Yao's face and not getting enough to eat.

Luo Mingdu is already eight years old, and there is already a bit of Luo Baisu's shadow between his eyebrows and eyes. It can be seen that he will not look bad in the future; Luo Tiandu is still young, and he can't tell who he looks like, but he also looks white. She is white and tender, and looks very beautiful and cute, but the two sisters can't eat well, and they are very thin.

Looking at the two daughters, Fang was so distressed that she almost shed tears again, she blinked quickly and forced back the tears.

Luo Tian was concerned about the broken rice bought with private money, so he didn't notice Fang's expression, but asked her: "Mother, where is the broken rice I soaked in the basin that day?"

When Fang heard this, she felt even more guilty.

"Xiaodu, your father has gone to work in the town, and when he comes back with the monthly money, I'll ask him to buy broken rice to cook porridge for you, okay?" That night, it was taken away by Yao shi, and made a small meal for Luo Baining and Luo Baihan. Although Luo Tiandu bought the rice, she didn't eat a single bite.

"Oh!" Luo Tian was not too disappointed, as if he knew the result.

Fang patted her little head, and when Luo Tian's eyes were healed, she would go to work, and the two children could not be starved anymore.

Luo Ming thought that the little girl was greedy, so he got out of the kang without saying a word, took a small shovel, went back to the small house where he lived, and started digging behind the door. After a while, Luo Ming was holding a muddy The little jar returned to the kang.

Luo Mingdu poured the pot onto the kang, and "ding ding dong dong" rolled out dozens of big money.

Fang was a little surprised, she knew that after Luo Tiandu started to manage the money by himself, Luo Mingdu also started to manage the money by himself, but she didn't expect this child to have saved so much in the past two years.

Fang's counted, there are more than 30 big money.

"Xiaodu, my sister is going to buy broken rice for you to eat, you wait." After finishing speaking, Luo Mingdu put the money in a cloth bag and was about to go out.

Unexpectedly, Luo Tian wasn't thinking about drinking rice porridge at all, she was thinking about making rice noodles and selling them!
Although Luo Tiandu didn't know how much money he had, but listening to the sound of "ding ding dong dong", it was probably quite a lot.

"Sister, don't buy this year's new rice, just buy old rice, it's so cheap."

Luo Mingdu responded, and went out with the purse in his arms.

Fang was worried that she was a child with so much money, afraid that she would lose it, and wanted to run over, and worried that Luo Tian would be at home alone.

Luo Tiandu said casually: "Mother, go and follow Eldest Sister, just buy the worst broken rice, buy two big clean bones, and buy a pair even if there are pigs in the water."

Fang only thought that her child was hungry, didn't think too much, and followed.

Fang bought about five catties of broken rice, and the butcher shop hadn't slaughtered pigs recently, so Fang only brought two big pig bones.

Luo Tiandu was very happy at this time, so he asked Fang to soak three catties of broken rice; after Fang finished soaking the broken rice, he went to chop the bones and boil the broth.

While he was busy, Li Zheng and the old patriarch who had been indifferent to the clan came.

Li just came to talk to old man Luo about the corvee.

Counting the old man Luo, the Luo family has a total of three laborers. The two scholars do not need to serve corvee, but the old man Luo does. In the past, Luo Baisu served for the old man Luo. Old man Luo.

Counting it, since Luo Baihan was selected as a scholar, old man Luo hasn't picked dikes for several years.

Old man Luo was silent for a while, and said: "The boss has already separated, of course I will go by myself."

At this time, Yao jumped out to stop him again.

"You have a son and a daughter. You have old bones. You have to pick a dam and go by yourself? What is this son born for?"

Lizheng nodded: "Sister-in-law said that the fourth uncle has a good life. He has raised two talented masters and is filial. He has also made a lot of face for our Luojia Village." After speaking, he turned to old man Luo, "Fourth uncle , why don't you let Bai Han pick the embankment for you this year?"

The old man Luo didn't speak, and Yao replied from the sidelines, "Bai Han is studying in the school in the town, and he is going to take the exam next year. How can he be free?"

Since he entered the door, he has closed his eyes and meditated, as if he was an old patriarch who was just a decoration. At this time, he suddenly opened his eyes. He didn't know what Yao's words offended him. Yao family scolded: "You naughty woman! You also know that next year will be Qiu Wei. At this time, Dalang will be kicked out and forced to work as a small worker in a restaurant, which will ruin his life's future. Our old Luo family When will I be sorry for you, you want to harm my children like this!"

The old patriarch is the uncle of the old man Luo, and he is the brother of the old man Luo's grandfather. He is the oldest old man in the village. It was taught by him, and he has some prestige in the village, but now that he is old, 80 years old, he can't teach anymore, and the juniors in the clan don't talk about anything in front of him, so as to save him trouble.He accidentally heard the little great-grandson of his family say that the fifth elder brother of the fourth uncle's family is now working in a restaurant in the town. At first he didn't understand it, but later he realized that he was referring to Luo Baisu, and then he struggled with his old bones. Leaning on crutches, he followed Lizheng to Luo's house.

Yao shi didn't dare to be rude in front of the old patriarch, and argued aggrievedly: "Uncle, Dalang wants to separate the family, I can't stop it..."

Before he finished speaking, the old patriarch stopped him sharply: "Shut up! You want to drive Dalang out, and you dare to talk nonsense! Dalang is also a person who is going to take the imperial examination, so you will get him dismissed Fame, life is worthless?!"

There are two scholars in the Yao family, and they usually have some face, but they dare not talk back to elders like the old patriarch.

The old patriarch scolded the Yao family a few words, and seeing that she was silent, he came to criticize the old man Luo and Li Zheng again: "You two are also foolish, and there have never been two generations in our Luo family village at the same time. Xiucai, if you parents and uncles don’t help, you still press the child to death, your eyes are covered with shit and you can’t see anything!"

The old patriarch was getting old, and when he lost his temper, his breath became uneven, and he was out of breath while leaning on the crutches. Lizheng and old man Luo hurriedly persuaded the old patriarch to sit down, and Yao went to serve tea and water by himself.

The old patriarch drank tea, rested for a while, his breath gradually calmed down, and then he squinted his presbyopic eyes and said to old man Luo: "Through generations of our Luo family, your family is the most promising. In a few years, when Da Lang and Bai Han have achieved fame and become officials, you can also enjoy the blessings. Take a long-term view, the two brothers are promising people, don't follow that woman's opinion."

Old man Luo nodded yes.

Just as they were talking, Third Uncle led Luo Baisu back.
