The splendid youth of the farm gate

Chapter 118 Re-entering the Ye Mansion (3)
"You go to the meeting, don't forget that this big family still needs you to take care of them." Zhou said.

Mrs. Lin looked at the sky, shook her head and said: "No, it's almost night around, Guoer's father has gone to the old house, maybe there is something wrong, I'll wait for him to come back."

Zhou Shi nodded when she heard the words, said a few more words, got up and left.

Qingguo vaguely guessed why Mr. Luo went to find Luo Xingzu, and wanted to hear about it, but it was a bad thing to think about, so it's better to go and see the batch of sour taro sticks that will be sent to Gao's restaurant tomorrow.

Luo's old house.

Mr. Luo was sitting under the eaves, with a pipe in his mouth, staring at the ground in front of him, without saying a word for a while.

Luo Xingzu, who was standing under him, resisted the feeling of drowsiness, pulled himself together and said to Mr. Luo: "Father, why do you keep calling me here?"

"What's the matter?" Mr. Luo put down the cigarette stick, glanced at Luo Xingzu, and said indifferently: "What else is there, isn't it just the messy things about your husband's family, how is your mother-in-law?"

Luo Xingzu let out a long breath, he thought that Mr. Luo called him because of the matter between the third son and Luo Fuxing.At the moment, he said to Mr. Luo.

"As long as my mother-in-law can survive for seven days, it will be fine."

Mr. Luo nodded, and after a while, he asked quietly: "Is it the doctor who went to the city to see him?"

"Yes, it was shown by an old nun who came out of the palace."

Mr. Luo's eyelids twitched, he was silent, and pretended not to care and asked, "How much money?"

"No... not much!" When Luo Xingzu heard the silver, he immediately became vigilant, he secretly looked at the expression of old man Luo, and said quickly: "Yongdong and Baozhong took the silver, I didn't take it. "

When Mr. Luo heard this, he paused when he put the shredded tobacco in his hand.

The second son-in-law and the third son-in-law of the Lin family are capable, and he has known this for a long time!

"How much silver did they take?"

Luo Xingzu said with a bitter face: "They took a total of 60 taels of silver."

"Crack" the dry cigarette in Mr. Luo's hand fell to the ground. When he realized that he was losing his composure, he quickly picked it up and stopped smoking. He only looked at Luo Xingzu and said, "60 taels of silver? Your mother-in-law fell really hard!" Exquisite!"

When Mr. Luo said this, Luo Xingzu didn't dare to tell about Zhong's spending 200 taels of silver to see a doctor!He just stood below with lowered eyebrows.

Seeing that he couldn't ask any more questions, Mr. Luo waved his hand and said to Luo Xingzu: "Go back and see how tired you are. You are not so filial to your parents!"

"I……"

Luo Xingzu wanted to defend himself, but Mr. Luo had already got up and walked into the house. He thought about it, then turned and left.When he reached the gate of the yard, he bumped into Luo Xingwang who came in from the outside.

"thriving……"

Luo Xingwang snorted, ignored Luo Xingzu, and said to Mrs. Xu who poked his head out from the east wing room: "Sister-in-law, why don't you make dinner? What time is it?"

Xu pouted, turned around and called Huifang and Huilan to the kitchen.

Luo Xiangyuan came back from Chunni's house, saw Luo Xingzu standing in the yard, frowned, and said angrily: "Second brother, what are you doing here? Our family only needs money and not a doorkeeper!"

After the words fell, he walked in from Luo Xingzu's side with a flick of his hand.

Luo Xingzu looked at the house behind him where he had lived for many years, and at these relatives who were connected with him by blood, his throat seemed to swallow a handful of sand, and he couldn't make a sound for a while.Before his eyes, the scene from the Lin family reappeared again. After a while, he sighed, gave himself a self-deprecating smile, turned around and walked away with heavy steps.

After returning home, seeing Qingguo's three brothers and sisters staying in the shed and Mrs. Lin cooking in the kitchen, Luo Xingzu stepped forward to help Mrs. Lin light the fire.

"What does dad want you for?" Mrs. Lin asked Luo Xingzu while busy with the work in hand.

Luo Xingzu stared sullenly at the fire in the kitchen and said, "It's nothing, I just asked how my mother-in-law is doing, whether it's okay or not."

Lin looked at Luo Xingzu who had a bitter expression on his face, fell silent for a moment, and didn't speak any more.

Qingguo came out of the shed, grabbed a stick of sour taro and said to Mrs. Lin: "Mother, let my brother give some to the old scholar. After the Chinese New Year, my brother will go to school in the spring."

Lin's hand paused, and she glanced at Luo Xingzu with a sad face.

Qingguo naturally knew that Lin's worry was nothing more than the money she owed, thinking, she had to pay off the debt and pay for Luo Xiaojiang's education, where did the money come from!
"Mother, are you worried that our family has no money?"

Lin pursed her lips and said nothing.

Qingguo looked at Luo Xingzu, Luo Xingzu licked his lips, leaned slightly, and lowered his head again.

"Guo'er, I, I won't go to school anymore." Luo Xiaojiang said.

Qing Guo put down the sour taro stick in his hand.

"Keep things in mind, it's always bad, so let's talk about it." After finishing speaking, he signaled Luo Xiaojiang and Qingping to sit in front of the stove.

After they were all seated, Qingguo looked up at Luo Xingzu, "Father, my brother must read this book."

Hearing this, Luo Xingzu looked up at Qingguo, then at Young General Luo.

"Guo'er..." Luo Xiaojiang was anxious to speak.

Qingguo waved her hand, "Let's not talk about it, our family has more than ten acres of land, just relying on our current business, you must read this book."

Little General Luo stopped talking, Luo Xingzu didn't know, but he knew how much the bones in the field could sell for!
"Your second uncle and third uncle both paid the money, our family can't leave it!" Luo Xingzu said in a muffled voice.

"I can't tell!" Qing Guo said, "Isn't it just 30 taels of silver, can it be difficult for someone to die?"

Luo Xingzu looked at the green fruit hesitantly, "30 taels of silver, you think it's only [-] taels!"But after meeting Qingguo's big black and white eyes, the words were swallowed again.

"You can do whatever you want, anyway, it was agreed at the time, this family belongs to your three siblings!" Luo Xingzu said.

These words were somewhat emotional, Qing Guo thought about it, and could understand, after all, Luo Xingzu has always been a filial son, right?I'm afraid that Mr. Luo called him to go just now, which touched his nerve again!

"Brother, you can send this sour taro stick to Grandpa Xiucai."

General Luo nodded, turned and walked out.

"Father, brother and I are going to deliver goods to Gao's restaurant tomorrow, you can go with us."

Lin Shanwen used to be responsible for this matter, but now Lin Shanwen is indispensable to take care of the Zhong family, so this matter naturally falls on Luo Xingzu.

"Hey, I see."

"Father, you can ask Grandpa Jinxi to borrow the ox cart, we will pay him five coppers for rent." Qing Guo said.
