Reborn farmhouse busy farming

Chapter 41
Luo Tian grabbed the few pennies he had secretly saved and searched around, and finally saw a stall selling handkerchiefs, purses, and flowers, so he talked to Fang, and ran over to pick and choose. After a long time, I finally bought a slightly delicate silk flower.

She couldn't forget the night when she fought with Yao Shi, Luo Mingdu squatted in the yard alone, quietly watching the torn silk flower silently sad.It's just a worthless gadget, but it made Yao Shi and Luo Baiqiu lose face like that, embarrassing a child.Although she doesn't like Luo Baining, she hates Yao Shi and Luo Baiqiu as elders more than an ignorant child.

If there was no acquiescence from Yao Shi and Luo Baiqiu, would Luo Baining come to the door so arrogantly and beat Luo Mingdu fiercely?Although on weekdays she calls Luo Mingdu affectionately one by one, but she treats Luo Mingdu as a daughter in her heart. Her own child is being bullied, and she is too weak to help. It made her even more determined in her heart to take good care of the child within her ability.

Luo Mingdu's age is the time when a little girl loves to be smug, but because of family reasons, she squats in the kitchen to work all day long, and can only watch Luo Baining show off her little girls. Toy, where there will be no envy.

"Sister, you should wear this to complement your complexion." Luo Tiandu stuffed the silk flower into Luo Mingdu's hand and said.

Luo Ming was stunned for a moment.

Fang raised her eyebrows again, and asked her: "Where did you get the money to buy it?" Now that all the money in the family is in her hands, Luo Tian always asks her for money, and everything she buys is clear and clear. In vain, she also couldn't figure out where the money in the child's hands came from.

Luo Tiandu raised his face and said proudly, "I saved it."

Fang was speechless, reached out and pinched her face, and said, "How did you save it?" It won't fall from the sky, right?

Luo Tiandu then explained with a smile: "The fabric left over from the tailor's clothes, I asked the eldest sister to make some gloves, and sold them to the lady in Lizheng." Because there was not much fabric left, I didn't make any gloves. A few pairs, and only made a few small bucks.

Fang frowned, and couldn't help but recall the dispute with Luo Baisu a few days ago. Although she refuted Luo Baisu firmly at that time, she couldn't help agreeing with Luo Baisu's words at this time.

The kid was really too smart sometimes.If she hadn't been absolutely sure that Luo Tian grew up slowly from that little lump of meat that was born in her own stomach, she would probably have wondered if this child was some kind of evildoer.

Luo Tiandu didn't see Fang's expression, but grinning at Luo Mingdu with his small white teeth bared, he kept urging her to put the silk flower on her head.

Luo Mingdu pursed his lips, touched her small face, and put the rough silk flower into his arms carefully.Xiaodu bought it for her with his own money, and she wanted to keep it as a treasure for the rest of her life.

Looking at the innocent and affectionate appearance of the two children in front of her, Fang sighed silently, but her heart softened involuntarily.

The days in winter are short, and after a while of shopping, the sky has become a little cloudy.

Seeing that the weather was getting late, Fang was a little worried that the mountain road where the snow had first melted would be difficult to walk, so she thought about going back earlier, otherwise it would be difficult to walk when it got dark.

On the way back, I passed West Street.West Street was originally a market, and most of the small business people gathered in this market.At this time, the New Year is approaching, and the West Street is more lively. On both sides of the narrow street, a row of sheds has been erected at this time, and as they slip past, sellers of small vegetables, poultry, mountain products, and tea are shouting. One after another.

Luo Tiandu actually saw Luo Baiqiu in a newly opened shop nearby, wiping the table with a rag.

Luo Baiqiu obviously saw them too, hurriedly dropped the rag in his hand, greeted them with a smile, and said, "Sister-in-law, come to town to buy new year's goods."

When Fang saw her, she remembered the night when Yao and Luo Tian had a fight, and was already a little apprehensive about Yao's children, so she only responded vaguely twice, saying nothing. I don't want to say much, I just want to go home quickly.

Never thought that Luo Baiqiu would be very enthusiastic, he pulled her and said: "It's so cold, my sister-in-law is probably freezing, come in and have a cup of hot water to warm up, the two little nieces should be tired from walking, come, come, hurry up Come in."

"No, it's getting late, let's hurry home." Fang shook her head intuitively and refused.

"Sister-in-law, we are a family, why are you polite?" Luo Baiqiu held her arm very affectionately, and insisted on dragging Fang into the house anyway.

Fang couldn't refuse, so he had to follow Luo Baiqiu into the shop.

Luo Tian glanced at it and found that it was a restaurant.The shop is not big, with six or seven tables set up, there is not much space, and the tables, chairs and benches are all cleaned up.It's just that compared to the bustle of other restaurants, Luo Baiqiu's place is a little deserted.

Fang also took a look, and asked curiously: "Is this the shop opened by your family?"

Luo Baiqiu smiled, and answered Fang's question, and asked her back: "Sister-in-law, I'll get you a bowl of rice noodles, please sit down for a while." Without waiting for Fang's answer, he turned to the stove behind Suddenly shouted: "Mother, here are three bowls of rice noodles."

Fang Shi was afraid of spending money, so she stopped her and said: "No need, it's the same when I go home to eat." Besides, she didn't dare to eat Luo Baiqiu's food.

Luo Baiqiu didn't seem to hear it, and walked into the kitchen behind him in a blink of an eye.

Luo Tian frowned, she didn't have any affection for Luo Baiqiu, so she pushed Fang Shi and said: "Mother, why don't we go back first."

Three bowls of rice noodles cost fifteen cents, and even the meat can buy more than a tael. If she wants to eat rice noodles, she might as well weigh a tael of meat, fry it when she goes home, and cook it herself.

Fang took it very seriously, followed Luo Baiqiu to the kitchen behind, and said: "Auntie, there is really no need, we should go back now, we are waiting for dinner at home."

Luo Baiqiu laughed and said: "We are a family, why should sister-in-law be so polite."

At this time, when the curtain at the back was raised, an old woman came in with a big soup bowl, and when Luo Baiqiu said about a family, her face turned gloomy, and she said mercilessly to Luo Baiqiu: "What family? Don't forget that you have entered the door of my Su family now, and you are the daughter-in-law of my Su family, don't let cats and dogs cling to the family."

This person is Luo Baiqiu's mother-in-law Xu.

Xu's husband's family name is Su, and he can be regarded as a small wealthy family in Qingquan Township. The family has about [-] mu of land, all of which are rich and fertile, and only has one son, Su Changping. Very well off.

It's just that although the Su family has a wealthy family, the head of the house, the Xu family, is a well-known shrew. Especially after the head of the family passed away, it was very difficult for the Xu family to raise the only son alone, and his temper became more and more fierce.

Luo Baiqiu saw the old woman, as if he didn't hear her scolding, he still smiled and said: "This is my natal sister-in-law and two young nieces, the eldest brother is also a scholar."

Mrs. Xu thought that Luo Baiqiu was using her mother's scholar to oppress her, put the bowl on the stove, and scolded: "Don't use your shitty scholar brother to oppress me! It's just your brother who is here with me every day. Eat and drink for nothing, I didn't even bring a penny to the old man, that's not counting, even the maids at home came to eat and drink, do the math yourself, from the moment I open this shop, I will go to your old Luo's house How much was posted?"

Luo Baiqiu was swept away by Xu Shi in front of Fang Shi, and couldn't help but want to make excuses: "Mother, my brother is studying in the town, and because he was afraid of delaying his time, he took a short rest here, just to have a meal, Next year, we will go to the provincial capital to take the Juren examination, and if we are successful, we will also have good looks, right?"

Mrs. Xu glared at her and scolded: "Don't tell me about being a scholar. Even your brother's virtue can be admitted to Juren. I don't want to face this old lady. I will change my surname to Luo after you!"

Mrs. Fang was very embarrassed when she heard this, and she couldn't stay any longer at this time, so she said to Mrs. Xu, "Mother-in-law, it's getting late, we're still in a rush to go home, so let's go first."

Mrs. Xu snorted coldly, and said: "It's really unlucky for me to marry this family and open a shop. You will come today, and he will come tomorrow, just for the convenience of your surname Luo."

Fang's face darkened, and she said: "We were just passing by, and our aunt pulled me in to say a few gossips, and we were about to leave soon. Why did my mother-in-law speak so harshly?"

Mrs. Xu let out a "bah", rolled her eyes and said, "Say a few gossips? I'm not blind yet. Who did the three bowls of rice noodles in the kitchen serve?"

Because Xu's family was poor when he was young, he had suffered a lot, so he valued money very much.She had been heartbroken for several days because of Luo Baihan eating free food in the shop, and today she saw Fang Shi bringing two little girls over, thinking that Fang Shi would also eat free food without giving money, and felt very unhappy.

Luo Tian understood what Xu meant, but she was unwilling to pay this wronged money in vain.Fifteen cash is not much, but they entered this shop without even drinking tea, and there is no reason to pay for nothing.She felt unlucky in her heart, and she didn't know what Luo Baiqiu meant by forcefully pulling them in. She didn't think that Luo Baiqiu was suddenly full of love and treated their family as relatives.

Luo Baiqiu didn't have any other intentions. She inquired about the method of steaming rice noodles from Mrs. Fang, and turned around and set up a shop in Qiushui Town. In the first half a month, everyone made new plans and the business was good, but after that, it became worse every day. In the past few months, the money has not earned a penny, but has paid a lot of money. When she saw Fang's coming, she came here to solicit business, and secondly, she wanted to follow Fang's tone. Ask Fang How did the family get their business to the county government in the first place.

She wanted something from others, so she didn't want Mrs. Xu to offend Mrs. Fang too much, so she smiled and said: "Mother, the business in the shop is not good. I also want to learn from my sister-in-law. Is there any way we don't know how to steam the rice noodles more deliciously?"
