Farmer’s Little Girl

   Chapter 445

   "Where is that thing?" Mrs. Bai asked, "Where are the things you bought?"

  Shirajiro stayed in a daze, speechless.

Mrs. Bai continued: "How many things did you leave in your house? The rest is for you to give away. I didn't ask you to play with the children in the village, but I didn't have such a fun, so much New Year's money, said When it's gone, it's gone."

  The old lady Bai heard the words, and immediately said: "Erlang, you are still young now, and let your mother take care of it for you. Don't worry, our family doesn't lack money, and your mother won't use your money."

  Hakujiro wiped his tears and said, "Grandma, I want to give things to my friends, and they give me things too. I don’t want to spend money in the future. You can ask my mother to return the money to me."

  Master Bai also said: "Mother, Erlang has grown up, no better than before, and the money is earned by him, not from the family, so let him take care of it."

"No," Mrs. Bai sank and said hard: "The money at home is not blown by the wind. Erlang has no control over spending money, so let his mother take care of it. If he wants to use money, he usually gives him a few ounces. That's it for money."

   "A few taels of silver are enough for what," Bai Erlang said: "If Zhuangzi buys novel seeds or does something, I don't know how much it will cost."

  "Don’t lie to me. I don’t know if you look at it. The money that Zhuangzi spends now is from Shanbao's family. What kind of money will you use?"

   "Mother," Master Bai couldn't help but said, "You think Shanbao is in charge of the money..."

"Is your son the same as Shanbao?" The old lady Bai interrupted him and said, "Shanbao's money is saved. In addition to buying some toys, the kid spends most of the money on books and pens. Look at Erlang. Where is his money spent?"

Master Bai persuaded him for a long time, but the old lady did not agree. In the end, the old lady became angry and said simply: "I'm going to bed, don't stand here, and don't quarrel after going out. Money is for the time being. Keep it and wait until he grows up."

  Master Bai talked to Mr. Zhuang some time ago about the education of his youngest son. He knew that he could not just hit him. He had to boast. Sometimes pressing a stone on him is more effective than hitting him with a fist.

  As a result, I didn’t expect it to go smoothly with my son, but I would be frustrated here with my mother and wife. Master Bai became a bit angry, and after saluting with a calm face, he withdrew.

  Of course, he was carrying his son.

  Bai Erlang felt hopeless to get the money back. Fortunately, he had left twenty-nine yuan at Shanbao, otherwise he would cry to death.

  He swears that he will cry to death in front of his mother to show her.

  Master Bai dragged his son away quickly. Mrs. Bai saw that her husband was angry, and she was a little worried, so she quickly caught up with her skirt.

  As he approached the main courtyard, Master Bai stopped and told his son to go back first. After Mrs. Bai caught up, he said solemnly: "Return the money to Erlang."

Mrs. Bai obviously didn't expect him to mention this again, and she opened her mouth to defend. Master Bai suddenly said with a gloomy face: "Chen, even if you want to get money from Erlang, you should ask him first, or tell him. , I just remembered, why didn't you talk to Erlang during the meal just now?"

  Mrs. Bai's face turned pale, not because of Master Bai’s questioning, but because Master Bai called her "Chen". This is the second time he calls her so since they got married.

  The first time he was going to send Erlang to the county school.

   "Master, you..." Mrs. Bai got lucky and said, "Don't you know how big Erlang spends money?"

  Master Bai said impatiently: “If the money is given by the family, it’s fine, but he earned it.”

   "That's from you..."

"That's also earned," Master Bai knew what she was thinking. Because the three children bought out the wheat seeds and sold him at a high price, the old lady and Chen were a little upset these past two days. He said: "Since I have said that Let the three children do it by themselves, then we can’t intervene too much. In business, since I am willing to do this business, I won’t lose money. Will it be sold?"

   "Then you say, am I cheating three children like this?"

   "Of course not, you are an adult..."

  "Just because I am an adult?" Master Bai interrupted her and said: "Don't say I can make a lot of money from it, even if I can't, I would be happy to see three children grow up like this when I lose money!"

"Mother is getting older. I can't say something with her just now, but now you listen, don't talk about Shanbao, just say Manbao, you know, that little girl from Zhou's family is better than you My son is still two years younger. He has made so much money from me. In their old Zhou family's situation, it turns out that so much money was given to the child!"

  Master Bai asked her, "Is it rare for our family to have a few hundred taels? Why is it possible for their Zhou family, but not for our Bai family."

   "Man Bao is very sensible, she never spends money randomly, she looks like Erlang..."

  Master Bai was a little tired, and his voice lowered. Some were weak, but he gritted his teeth and said: "Then let him learn! Don't you know that your son has changed a lot?"

Master Bai said every word: "This time is different, do you know? A year ago, no, just ten days ago, Jiro told you that he could earn more than four hundred and ninety two. Do you believe that? ?"

   "What? More than four hundred and ninety taels? Isn't it only two hundred taels?" Mrs. Bai exclaimed, "I think there are only twenty silver ingots in the box."

Master Bai was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed and closed his laughter, and asked Mrs. Bai, "Look, your son already hides money separately. No, he has learned to use money to test you. You think he is still you. Know the son?"

  Mrs. Bai's face turned pale.

  Master Bai waved his sleeves and said: "Return the money to him. You always think that he can't manage money and will be lavish, then he will not manage money for the rest of his life, and will always be lavish!"

   After speaking, turn around and go back to the house.

  Mrs. Bai stood at the gate of the courtyard for a long time before entering the house with red eyes.

Master Bai did not sleep on the bed, but slept on the couch. After a long time, he quietly said: "Mr. Qianerzhuang is drunk and dragged me to cry for a long time. Both you and I look down on Mr. Zhuang, he is An excellent gentleman, it’s just a pity that Da Lang has no fate with him, otherwise I really want to bring Da Lang back from the school and continue to teach him."

  Mrs. Bai was startled.

  "But it’s such a good Mr. Zhuang. Qian'er took my hand and said, Man Bao is the most savvy child he has ever seen, whether he is a person or reading a book."

  Mrs. Bai didn't quite understand the meaning of these words.

"And Shanbao is also very good. He is better at studying than Ziqi. Now Erlang sits with Manbao on the left and Shanbao on the right. Mr. Zhuang teaches when he enters the school, and he mostly plays with the two of them when he leaves the school. , You are pressing him at this time, not for his good, but to harm him."

  Mrs. Bai became silent.
