Chapter 231 Bankruptcy
Hearing this, Shang Wan and Lu Chengjing stared at him together, each one more frightening than the other.
That's a disappointment.
Shitou shrank back in fear, and suddenly thought of a possibility, and asked weakly: "Sister, are you and brother-in-law going to chase me away?"
Shang Wan: “…”
The child is beyond saving.
Lu Chengjing: “…”
It should be in time to teach from the beginning, right?
Seeing that the two were silent, Shitou's heart began to beat wildly. In his mind, he appeared the scene of himself begging on the street and freezing to death in the corner holding a broken bowl.
Then... Xiaohuan slapped him on the back, and he screamed in pain.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xiaohuan glared at him and raised her hand to hit him. Shitou hurriedly dodged to the side, trying to hide behind her round little body.
Yuanyuan baby blinked in confusion. Although he didn't understand very well, he moved his little butt to the side to reveal the stone behind him.
Stone:"……"
What a pit uncle!
Xiao Huan glared at him, her voice shrill with anger, "Don't you know how your sister and brother-in-law treat you? In your heart, are they that kind of people?"
Shitou was stunned for a moment, then realized that he had said the wrong thing and shook his head hastily, "No, no, no, that's not what I meant."
Xiao Huan continued to glare, "What do you mean?"
The stone is in the wrong, so the stone is autistic.
Xiaohuan poked his head with her index finger, her tone also carrying a hint of disappointment: "You just said you would listen to your sister and brother-in-law. They asked you to go to the academy to study. Did you listen or not?"
Looking at Xiaohuan who looked so fierce as if she wanted to chop him into pieces, did Shitou dare to say no?
He nodded quickly, "I'll go."
"Sister, brother-in-law," Xiaohuan turned to look at Shang Wan and Lu Chengjing, and pointed at Shitou, "He is willing to go to the academy to study."
Two people: "..."
Since opening the restaurant, Xiaohuan has become more and more tough. She is completely different from the girl who would jump up and scream when she saw a mouse.
In fact, Xiaohuan’s idea is very simple. Since Shitou has not thought about the future, let the smart people think about it for him.
Obviously, Shang Wan and Lu Chengjing were both smart people in her eyes.
The two of them let Shitou go to school for his own good. Although I don't know what their specific plans are, it's always right for him to study and learn sensible things.
If Shitou is lucky enough to pursue a career in politics, it will be a help to both himself and his family.
Shang Wan looked at Shi Tou, who still had a confused look on his face, and said softly, "Your brother-in-law and I let you go to the academy to study. We are not forcing you to study very well or to pass the imperial examination. We just hope that you will have more choices in the future."
It’s not that the family is poor, so supporting one more scholar is no big deal.
Shitou has a simple mind. He doesn't know what he wants to do now. Maybe it's just that the world he has seen is too small, so small that there is only one Dongning County, only one Yushu Village, and only their family's three-acre land.
The book describes the vicissitudes of life and the changes in the world. Maybe he will get enlightenment while reading it.
Even if Shitou still wants to be a leisurely rich man in the end, Shang Wan hopes that he chooses to be a rich man, rather than having to be a rich man just because he can't think of any other possibilities.
Shitou also understood that everyone was doing this for his own good, so he nodded and said, "I will listen to you."
At this moment, a small hand suddenly stretched out in front of him, with chubby fingers opened and turned a small flower to him.
"what!"
The little baby has a soft voice, blinks her big round eyes, and turns her wrist, and the little flower follows suit.
When one hand feels like it’s not enough, the other hand joins in and spins together.
With her intervention, the serious atmosphere suddenly relaxed and everyone couldn't help laughing as they looked at each other.
Xiaohuan picked up the blooming dumpling and started kneading it. Why is it so popular?
·
The next day, the snow stopped and the sky cleared.
The warm winter sun shining on my body seems to force out the coldness in my bones, making me feel so comfortable that I feel sleepy.
"Hey, look, the restaurant across the street has even taken down its signboard."
"It was still hanging yesterday, why did you take it down suddenly?"
"Maybe he doesn't want to lose more money. No one's money comes from the wind."
"Alas, if there are no customers at this restaurant, it will close sooner or later."
Two guys were standing at the door chatting, wiping the door frame with a white rag in their hands.
"Hey, you two little brats. I'm busy in the kitchen and you're standing here chatting. Are you looking for a beating?" Madam Lou came out with a spatula in her hand, as if she was going to hit them.
The two guys begged for mercy quickly, "We won't dare to do it again next time."
Seeing that the two were in a good mood, Madam Lou put away the spatula, tapped each of them on the forehead with her fingers, and asked, "What were you looking at just now? What's gone?"
The waiter covered his forehead and pointed outside, "It's across the street. It looks like it's closed."
Madam Lou turned her head and looked across.
I saw that the door of the restaurant opposite was closed, and the place where the plaque should have been hung was empty, giving it a somewhat desolate feeling.
The proprietress raised her eyebrows in slight surprise. It was actually closed.
She snorted softly, turned around and sent the two men back to work.
What goes around comes around, today is such a good day!
There were few customers in the store in the afternoon.
Madam Lou took off her apron, carried a plate of roasted melon seeds, and walked briskly into the door of the spiritual medicine pavilion next door.
Shang Wan was sitting behind the counter with his chin on his hand, looking at the account book. When he saw Madam Lou come in, he motioned for her to come in and sit down.
Madam Lou ducked behind the counter and sat down next to Shang Wan. While eating sunflower seeds, she asked, "Why did the door opposite suddenly close?"
"Just close it if you want to." Shang Wan closed the account book and started to crack some sunflower seeds. "It's a loss if it's open."
Madam Lou spat the melon seed shells into the trash can beside her, and looked up and down at the person next to her with her beautiful eyes, trying to read something from the woman's face.
Shang Wan glanced at her with a rather lazy look, "Don't look at me, I was the one who did it."
"Crack—" The melon seeds stuck between the lips and teeth, and the sound of breaking was crisp. Madam Lou's eyes turned, and she raised her hand and gave Shang Wan a thumbs up.
Shang Wan curled his lips and didn't ask Madam Lou why she was so concerned about this matter.
Madam Lou wanted to ask Shang Wan how she did it, but when the words came to her lips, she changed the subject, "The sisters are going to have a small gathering at Baoyuezhai tonight, are you free?"
The boss ladies of Lancang Company have a regular gathering every month. In addition to chatting about their own situations, they talk most about gossip.
Shang Wan was invited there once, and it was an eye-opener.
This time, Qiao Yuguai was able to be recruited so easily, thanks to the gossip contributed by the boss ladies.
So Shang Wan nodded without much thought.
Madam Lou's eyebrows lit up instantly, and she stuffed a handful of melon seeds into Shang Wan's hand, "It's a deal."
At night, Baoyuezhai was still brightly lit.
There were quite a few guests sitting in the lobby, most of them came for the hotpot, and they were eating with great enthusiasm, the aroma filling the air.
Shang Wan and Madam Lou got off the carriage and went straight to the third floor.
