Chapter 15

Fang looked in the direction of Luo Tiandu's finger, and she really saw Luo Baihan sitting by the window of the restaurant, drinking with several men in long gowns.

Luo Mingdu curled his lips and lowered his head.

It wasn't once or twice that she saw her second uncle drinking in a restaurant, it was no longer new.

Ever since Luo Baihan was selected as a scholar, he would drink with people in restaurants from time to time, Fang's also bumped into each other a few times, she used to be a little bit resentful, but now that the family is separated, she has no idea at all.In her eyes, whether it is Luo Baihan who spends money like water, or Luo Baining who is lazy and uneducated, it is Yao's business and has nothing to do with her.She only thought about how to work hard, earn some hard money, and support her family.

The Fang family has always been strong, so they pretended not to see them at this moment, urging Luo Tiandu and sisters to leave quickly, for fear that the children would be greedy and couldn't help but go forward to beg for food with Luo Baihan and be ridiculed.Unexpectedly, it was Luo Baihan who saw her, and shouted through the window with a smile on his face: "Sister-in-law."

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, Luo Baihan warmly greeted her, and Fang could only reply: "So it's my uncle."

Luo Baihan saw that Luo Tiandu and Luo Mingdu were also there, so he beckoned and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm having a gathering with my classmates today, you should come over and have a drink, and my little niece is also coming."

Luo Baihan spends most of his time studying at the school in the town, and rarely stays at home. He doesn't have many opportunities to meet Fang, and the two of them are not close. In addition, Luo Baihan regards himself as a scholar and has a high self-esteem. When he meets, he only treats Fang as a An ordinary ignorant village woman did not respect her as a sister-in-law, but today she was suddenly so affectionate, and Fang felt very uncomfortable.

Without even thinking about it, she refused: "I'm still in a hurry to go home. You should go back early after you have a drink, so that Dad won't worry about you when it gets dark."

Luo Baihan persuaded him a few times, but seeing that Fang Shi still disagreed, he stopped persuading him.

Fang breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the cart forward and walked a few steps, when he saw Luo Baihan walking out of the restaurant with eight-character steps, and said as he walked, "Sister-in-law, wait a minute."

Fang had no choice but to stop again, really unable to figure out what made Luo Baihan so warm and polite to her today.

In a blink of an eye, Luo Baihan had already walked up to Mrs. Fang, stretched out his hand, and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't bring any money for drinking today, so take some money to meet me."

Luo Tian wanted to swear, and devoted himself to courting him for a long time. The reason why Luo Baihan was so affectionate was because he took the three of them, mother and daughter, as a fool.Fortunately, Fang's resolute refusal just now, if Fang really listened to Luo Baihan's words and went into the restaurant, even if they didn't eat a bite, today's banquet will be counted against them.

Luo Tian was thinking, this second uncle really deserved to crawl out of Yao's stomach, just like his little sister Luo Baining, he was someone who cheated people without paying for their lives.

She turned her head and saw the table by the window, several of Luo Baihan's classmates were looking straight at this table, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.Those few people were all low-ranking scholars from Shiliba Township, Qiushui Town. She still recognized one of them, Han Zicheng, who lived in Qingquan Township next to Luojia Village.Han Shusheng's family sold their fields and land for his scientific examinations, and wiped out all their ancestral family business. They didn't even pass the exams. Now there is only a dilapidated old house left in the family. They have long been too poor. In order to support his elderly mother-in-law, his wife came to Luojia Village to borrow food and money. I don't want this scholar surnamed Han to eat and drink spicy food in the town every day, and he doesn't care about the life and death of his wife and mother.

For a while, she hated these sour scholars who survived only by extracting the sweat and blood of their wives, children, and mothers. Based on their character, it is a blessing for the common people to fail the exam.In contrast, Luo Baisu would rather lose his status as a scholar and do that lowly job to support his family. He is a truly responsible man.In an instant, Luo Baisu's image suddenly grew taller in her heart, and she secretly rejoiced that she was reborn in Fang's belly, otherwise, she really didn't know how to live with such a father.

Fang was also stunned for a long time before realizing that Luo Baihan was asking her for money.Not to mention that she has no money now, even if she has money, she will only spend it on a few members of her own family, so she is not willing to pay this unjust money for Luo Baihan.

Luo Baihan waited for a long time but did not wait for Fang to give him the money. Feeling that he had lost face in front of his classmates, he became impatient and said, "Sister-in-law, my classmates are still waiting for me, and give me five hundred Wen."

As soon as he opened his mouth, it was five hundred words, and Luo Tian wanted to curse even more.

A bucket of grain was only [-] Wen, and a stone of grain was only [-] Wen. Luo Baihan's meal was worth their food rations for several months.She had always known that Luo Baihan was doted on by the Yao family, raised him with a bit of a young master's temper, didn't know how expensive he was, and was a bit extravagant in spending money. Now it seems that she still underestimated him.

At this time, Luo Tian was once again very fortunate that their family was separated now, otherwise, if they were to follow the example of a young master like Luo Baihan who spends money like water, the Luo family would have gold and silver, and sooner or later there would be a day when Luo Baihan spent money. Even if it is a bottomless hole, Wan Guan's wealth can't stop it.

Thinking of this, he didn't want to say any more polite words to Luo Baihan, and said directly: "My mother has no money, if she wants money, go home and find grandma."

Fang's heart is also very uncomfortable, now seeing Luo Baihan's young master making pies with her own eyes, she feels that in the past ten years, she and Luo Baisu worked as cows and horses in Luo's house, the family ate bran and swallowed vegetables, and worked hard to save some money It's really not worth it to be wasted by Luo Baihan like this. You must know that when their family of four separated, they only got one stone of food, which was not worth Luo Baihan's drink money once.

Robbham was in a hurry.

On weekdays, he and a group of classmates and friends come to drink, all of whom are scholars surnamed Wang. The scholars they know are used to free wine, and they often make appointments with Wang Xiucai. Come on, like him, the few present are all used to the autumn wind, and they don't have any money at hand. Seeing that the wine has been eaten, and the banquet is about to end, no one pays the bill.Originally, apart from Wang Xiucai, Luo Baihan was the only scholar among this group of scholars, and these few scholars usually flattered and flattered him, but when it came time to learn money, they all pretended to be deaf and dumb. Others, in the end they had to make an appointment to share evenly. Luo Baihan had no money on him and was worried about how to get out. When he met Fang passing by, he grabbed Fang and asked her for money.

Fang said she had no money, but Luo Baihan didn't believe her.

"Aren't you making rice cocoons for the past two days? Even the county magistrate agreed to eat them, and they must have sold for a lot of money. Sister-in-law, please lend me five hundred Wen to make a living."

When Luo Baihan asked for money, he always just stretched out his hand to take it, but today he condescended to borrow it, but unfortunately, he borrowed money but never repaid it. Wouldn't he have to rely on Yao to repay the money he borrowed?I hope that Yao's will not be the same as what he gave in vain.

Fang also really had no money, so he refused to talk to him any more, just pushed the cart and left.

Luo Baihan still wanted to pester him, so Luo Tiandu smiled and said, "Second Uncle, those classmates of yours seem to have left through the back door."

In fact, the back door cannot be seen from her position, but she just wanted to distract Luo Baihan, and she didn't want to let him pester him any longer.

Unexpectedly, Luo Baihan raised his eyes and saw that the table by the window was empty, and there was no one there anymore. He secretly resented those classmates for not giving lectures, so he left him and ran away alone.He had no money, and Fang refused to take the money out, so he flicked his sleeves and slipped away immediately.

Luo Tian was dumbfounded.Unexpectedly, Luo Baihan, a dignified scholar, ate free food and had no money to pay his bills, but he would run away openly. He didn't have half of the scholar's character he usually talked about.She was very speechless in her heart. Yao shi was determined to be harsh on their family in terms of money, favoring her own children, but never devoted herself to education. Now the two brothers and sisters, Luo Baihan and Luo Baining, are like carved out of the same mold. When something bad happens, he always only knows how to run away, and now Luo Baihan has even learned how to eat the overlord's meal.

She didn't want to cause trouble, so she urged Fang to leave quickly.

Only then did Fang regain his senses, pushed the cart and hurried away.Unexpectedly, at this time, a buddy led three strong men and rushed out of the restaurant quickly, surrounding their mother and daughter.

Fang was shocked, not knowing what happened, Luo Tian's brows twitched, and he only hoped it wasn't what he thought.

The guy looked very polite to them, and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you from Luojia Village?"

Fang nodded.

The man asked again: "That Luo Xiucai just now, who are you?"

Qiushui Town is only so big, and Luojia Village is so close. If you send someone to inquire, you can't hide anything. Fang didn't know the purpose of the clerk's question, and replied: "He is my uncle."

Hearing this, the guy breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a relieved expression, "That's just right, Luo Xiucai just had a drink in the restaurant and hasn't paid for it yet, since you are his sister-in-law, you might as well pay for the drink. "

As soon as Luo Tian heard that this guy was going to blame his family, he didn't wait for Fang's answer, and quickly said: "Although he is my second uncle, our family has been separated long ago. Now, there is no reason for the second uncle to eat wine and instead ask the sister-in-law for money." She was angry that Luo Baihan was such an adult, he could do nothing but spend money, and now he involved the three of them, mother and child, in her heart He couldn't help scolding Luo Baihan to death.

These sour scholars often come over to eat and drink, and praise each other, but only Wang Xiucai and Mr. Qi, who just returned from the provincial capital, are the ones who know how to make money. He has seen a lot, and he has seen through the background of these scholars.Today these scholars gathered together for a drink again, but Wang Xiucai did not come, so the clerk secretly paid attention to it, but unexpectedly, those few still sneaked away, even Luo Xiucai was no exception.Seeing that Luo Baihan and Fang Shi had said a few words, he immediately rushed out with a few thugs and detained Fang Shi first. Now that he heard Luo Tiandu's defense, he also felt that Fang Shi was really innocent, but There is no way around this, if he doesn't find a bitter master, then the money for the table of food and drink will be on his own head, who makes Fang's unlucky is Luo Baihan's sister-in-law and just passing by at this time, Luo Baihan keeps it as a shield Next, he ran away.
