Chapter 39
Luo Tiandu was also very curious. When Changhui Niang and Fang Shi whispered, she pricked up her ears and listened for a while, and now she heard the noise in the yard again, wondering if it was Luo Baihan who sent that Did the little lady bring it home?No matter what era it is in, this kind of gossip involving men and women is the most attractive topic. The soul of gossip is burning in her heart, if it is not hindered by the two serious children Luo Mingdu and Changhui beside her , She might have followed it a long time ago. At this time, she can only sit on the chair, listen to the noise next door, and make up the picture in her head. It feels like a cat's paw is scratching her heart, itching so badly.

Over there, old man Luo was still yelling that he wanted to kill Luo Baihan, that bastard son, but he was finally persuaded by someone. If so, he still kept cursing, and it took a long time before he calmed down.

In the evening, Mrs. Fang came over with a gloomy face and called Luo Mingdu and Luo Tiandu to go home.

Luo Tian was so excited, he almost trotted all the way back to take a look, the yard was neatly tidied up, he couldn't tell at all that someone had made a fuss just now, the chimney of the kitchen room was emitting thick smoke, It seemed that someone was lighting a fire and cooking, but Mrs. Yao was sitting in the main room facing the door.

Old man Luo doesn't go into the kitchen. Luo Baihan has always thoroughly enshrined the saying that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, and Luo Baining doesn't touch the spring water with his fingers. So who is busy in the kitchen?

Luo Tian was dying of curiosity.

No matter who it is, the one who is staying in the kitchen now certainly doesn't come into the kitchen often.Looking at the thick black smoke coming out of the chimney, those who knew the inside story knew that the house was cooking, but those who didn't know thought the house was on fire.

After sitting in the main room for a while, Mrs. Yao couldn't sit still anymore. He rushed to the stove and shouted: "You said you are still a maid, and you can't even start a fire. What's the use for you."

Then Luo Tiandu heard the previous delicate voice coughing and saying: "Old lady, why did you come in? You sit in the room for a while, and I'll cook the meal right away."

I heard Yao Shi impatiently say again: "Get out, get out, I'm afraid if you sit for a while, you'll burn my kitchen down. Really, you're clumsy, you can't do anything well."

In the west room, Luo Baisu, who had been beaten up by the old man Luo, couldn't sit still when he heard Yao's scolding in the kitchen. face, went to the kitchen to protect the flowers.

"Mother, Yinger is still not used to it on the first day. Mother, you can teach her slowly. You see, our kitchen is so small, and she can't help much now. It's still getting in the way here. I'm about to write an article, and I don't have someone to grind ink for me, so I'll let her go over to help me first."

Immediately afterwards, Luo Tiandu saw Luo Baihan pulling a little lady out.

The little lady named Yinger really had a beautiful face, with a lotus face and a willow waist, and a scorpion head and moth eyebrows. She was wearing a pink jacket with a circle of snow-white fox fur on the collar, which made her skin white as snow. She is as thick as fat, and her big watery eyes look forward to making waves, and when she looks at others, there are few men who can control the coquettish and shy style.

Such a beauty, no wonder Luo Baihan insisted on taking her home even at the risk of being beaten to death by old man Luo.

"You're not used to these menial jobs, so don't meddle in these things in the future. You won't be able to help anyway, and you can just concentrate on serving me from now on." Luo Baihan frowned, ignoring his mother's nagging behind him. , dragged Yinger into the West Room, and then slammed the door shut with a "bang".

Not long after, I heard intermittent voices coming from the room.

Fang's face turned dark when he heard this, and he went back to the east room with Luo Tiandu and Luo Mingdu twisting, and strictly prohibited them from coming out.

When Luo Baisu came back at night, Mrs. Fang and Luo Baisu talked about it, and Luo Tian finally understood the beginning and end of the matter.

There are only a few well-known and wealthy families in Qiushui Town. The owner of "Jufu Lou" is the Shen family, and Wang Xiucai's Yue's family is also counted as one family, and then this is the Qi family.The Qi family had been in the provincial capital in the early years, and they only moved back this year. That Yinger is the personal maid of the eldest son of Qi, and she is usually very favored, no matter where she goes, she will be taken with her.I just don't know what it was for this time, Mr. Qi was willing to give this Yinger to Luo Baihan, in the pretense of seeing him study hard, and specially sent a lovely person to serve him, Luo Baihan was fed two bowls of yellow soup, and suddenly A little bit flustered, taking advantage of the wine, he actually brought people back.

Old man Luo was so angry that he was about to grab a pole and beat him to death on the spot, but was stopped by people.After all, Luo Baihan was old man Luo's own son, old man Luo couldn't really beat him to death, after beating him up, he asked Luo Baihan to send Ying Er back to the Qi family.

But Luo Baihan refused to agree to it, old man Luo was so angry that he scolded him for being dizzy.

That Ying'er was very winking, seeing that old man Luo disagreed, she softened her tone and turned to curry favor with Yao.She is the servant girl of a rich family, and she is the most pleasing to others, one by one old lady, boasting Yao Shi over and over again, coaxing Yao Shi into ecstasy, she really thinks that she is the head of the rich family's mistress, Then I felt that this girl had a bit of wink, and I no longer rejected Yinger's existence so much in my heart.Furthermore, Mrs. Yao thought that after Luo Baisu and Mrs. Fang separated, the family suddenly lost two laborers, and she had to do everything by herself. In the past, Mrs. Fang was here, and she didn't need to worry about these family affairs. Now it's all done. On his own head, he felt a little overwhelmed. This Yinger was sent here to serve his son, and was also a servant of the family. If he kept her here, he could count himself as a helper.

Thinking of this, Yao shi decided to keep Ying Er.

In November, the snow began to fall one after another, and the villagers officially started the cat winter.

Luo Tiandu squinted his eyes and took a look at the silver-clad world outside, then immediately retracted his head from the cold, and climbed back onto the kang.

This is the happiest time for the villagers after they have been busy for a whole year. They don’t have to get up early to pick up the crops in the dark, and they don’t have to worry about the harvest in the field.

Mrs. Fang had already heated up the kang, and set up a table on the kang. Luo Baisu sat on the kang and read a book, and also taught Luo Tiandu and sister to recognize a few words, while she was busy with some needlework. .

Luo Tiandu was afraid of affecting Luo Baisu, so he volunteered to teach Luo Mingdu how to read, and was even laughed at by Fang, saying that she is a good teacher at a young age.

Luo Tiandu snorted secretly, thinking that at least she had read books for decades, could it be that she couldn't even teach an eight-year-old child?
Unsurprisingly, the enlightenment book was the Three Character Classic. Luo Tian read "At the beginning of man, nature is good" several times over and over again. He felt that Luo Ming had almost recognized her, so he tested her again before putting down the book and seriously Teach Luo Mingdu arithmetic.

First taught Luo Mingdu the simple addition and subtraction within [-], and then gave a few practice questions to let Luo Mingdu do the calculations by himself.The paper is the red paper that Fang bought back to stick on the door, and the pen is the carbon strip that was suffocated after the fire at home. After writing for a while, both hands are dirty and black.

When Changhui Niang brought Xiao Changhui over with a dustpan of corn, she saw Luo Tiandu lowering his head, checking Luo Mingdu's homework. If the question was correct, draw a circle, and if it was wrong, draw a circle on it. a fork.The homework for Luo Ming's questions has changed from five questions the day before yesterday, four wrong ones, one right, to four circles and one cross.

"Yo, there's a young gentleman in this family?" Changhui Niang put the dustpan on the bench and said with a smile.

Fang Shi also laughed, and said: "You don't know, she refuses to be idle all day long, she has to go out of her way to feel comfortable, she is honest, and she is coaxing her to play!"

Changhui Niang looked at it for a while, but she didn't understand it, she just said enviously: "I said that Xiaodu has been smart since he was a child, and he can teach others at this age."

However, Fang was both proud and had a headache, and said: "If you praise her again, her tail will go up to the sky."

Changhui Niang said a few more gossips and explained her intentions. She wanted to ask Luo Baisu to write two pairs, which would be pasted on the door during the Chinese New Year, as a celebration.

Mrs. Fang was of course willing to help the villagers with this little help, so she quickly spread out the red paper, took out the pen and ink.Luo Baisu thought for a while, then wrote two pairs of auspicious and festive pairs, cut out two square pieces of red paper, and wrote two big blessing characters.

Changhui Niang was not in a hurry to go back, she hugged little Changhui to the kang, and sat next to Luo Tiandu, while she hugged the dustpan and sat with Fang Shi to rub the corn grains.

Seeing Luo Tiandu and Luo Mingdu meeting head to head to read characters together, she must have some small thoughts in her heart.Now that the old patriarch is old, there is no second person in the village to teach the young children to enlightenment. If anyone's children want to study, they will go to the school in the town.The school in that town is expensive, but the master is very picky about the students, he doesn't accept those who are not smart, they don't accept those who are old, and they don't accept those who are too young to sit still.Changhui's mother moved her mind, and wanted to send Changhui to study under Luo Baisu's name for a few days, at least she could know a few words, and after a year of schooling, she would not be disgusted by her husband.

Chang Hui Niang is a person who can't hold back words. With such thoughts, she quietly talked to Fang Shi, but she was a little worried that Luo Baisu's own study time would be delayed, so she was very disturbed.

On the contrary, Luo Baisu listened and agreed, saying: "Changhui is still young, and I'm free right now. It doesn't take much effort to teach him how to read a few words every day. It's just spring, so I'm afraid I don't have so much free time. What about that?" If Chang Hui wants to learn again, he still has to go to school."

After hearing this, Changhui Niang couldn't help being overjoyed, and said: "He can study with you for a whole winter, and he can read a few words. It is already his blessing to not be despised by the master when he is sent to school next year, and he dare not delay any more of your time. "

Fang also smiled, and said: "Originally, everyone in the village has the same surname. I should do my best to enlighten the children in the village. It's just that you know the situation of my family. I really don't have time to spare."
