Old Zhou Tou and the village chief went to Bai's house to discuss with Master Bai what to do with the three of them.
They feel that there are some things that are not good to talk to Mrs. Liu, but Mr. Bai is an insider, so it is more convenient to talk to him, but it is troublesome.
Both the village chief and old Zhou Tou were a little embarrassed.
Master Bai's mood fluctuated violently, and when he saw these two people again, his expression was even more complicated, especially when facing Lao Zhoutou.
He didn't know anything before, so of course he could have more room for trade-offs, but now this matter involves his cousin, and to a certain extent, the source of this matter is his cousin, how can he refuse
He knew what the village head and old Zhou were worried about. He pondered for a moment and said: "Don't worry, I will deal with this matter. I checked it early in the morning, and they are fake."
The eyes of the village head and old Zhou Tou lit up, "Is it true?"
Master Bai nodded, yes to a certain extent.
Old Zhou Tou and the village chief all breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't the official.
It's not the official...
Lao Zhou came back to his senses in a jerk, and asked quickly: "Master Bai, since they are not officials, why did they come to investigate my younger brother's affairs?"
"They're not here to investigate Zhou Yin, they're looking for someone." Master Bai had already discussed with Mrs. Liu, and said, "That person still has some relationship with our family, but they don't know where he is hiding. They know My aunt moved here, so she came here in disguise to inquire, so she checked her household registration under the pretext of disaster relief, and it was your reaction that aroused their suspicion."
Old Zhou was dumbfounded, "Ah, it has nothing to do with our family?"
For a moment, the old Zhoutou regretted and felt distressed, regretting that he should not have been so impulsive yesterday, which caused this fight, and felt sorry for the house destroyed and the money lost due to this gang fight.
The village head also opened his mouth wide. It was a misunderstanding after a long time.
Master Bai was also a little embarrassed, and said: "By the way, I heard that the tiles on the old man's roof were badly damaged. Auntie asked Nanny Liu to send you five taels of silver. You confiscated it?"
Old Zhou smiled awkwardly. Before this, he had always felt that the Zhou family had caused the incident, and he would not be ashamed to accept it. So even if Mammy Liu insisted on giving him the money, he would not do it.
But now...
Master Bai seemed to know this, and said apologetically, "This is our negligence and a misunderstanding. Please keep this little money. I heard that Da Lang injured his internal organs. Should I go to the county seat and ask a doctor to come over and show him?" look?"
Master Bai stuffed Lao Zhoutou with a purse, and Lao Zhoutou said at a loss, "No, no, the doctor has already prescribed a medicine to stop the bleeding. It should be fine after a while."
But this time he didn't refuse the purse in his hand.
Master Bai breathed a sigh of relief, and promised: "I will take care of this matter. Just rest assured, both of you, and the people in the village. Speaking of which, we are still in trouble."
The village head said: "I can't blame you for this, it's because their hearts are broken, and we are all fellow villagers, it's right for neighbors to help each other."
Although I don't know what it is for, Mr. Bai thinks he has a kind heart. Although the Liu family has only moved here for two years, he is also a good person. When the children in the village play with the young master of the Bai family, they often get cakes to eat .
Even if the children fight, the old lady never cares about it, she will not bully others.
So the village head still likes this new villager very much.
This time, the two of them let go of the boulder that weighed on their hearts. No matter how heavy they came, they felt so relaxed when they left.
If it weren't for the presence of Master Bai, old Zhou could hardly help grinning, so he just said, after so many years, who would come to find my younger brother
Master Bai sent the two of them out with brisk footsteps, and just as they went out, they saw two children sneaking over from the east side, each carrying a plate, as if they wanted to go to the West Garden.
Master Bai: ...
Old Zhou Tou: ...
The village chief looked at Lao Zhou, then at Master Bai, and said nothing knowingly.
Man Bao and Bai Shanbao, who pestered the cook to prepare two plates of dim sum for them, deliberately did not go from the nearest backyard to avoid the eyes of Liu Shi and Zheng Shi, but went around to the front yard first, and then went west.
Bai Shanbao's study is in the West Garden.
Quietly, the two of them slipped through the front yard through the corridor, under the cover of the big tree, without seeing the three adults standing above them looking at them.
As soon as the two entered the West Garden, they spread their feet and ran.
Holding the plate in both hands, Man Bao saw that the glutinous rice cake inside was about to fall out, so he slowed down and pushed it back with his hands before continuing to run.
In the study room, Man Bao reached out to eat one, but Bai Shanbao slapped him on the back of his hand.
He said solemnly: "Wash your hands first."
"All right."
Man Bao went to wash his hands in the sink on the shelf next to him, and soon, he rubbed his hands with the water, no matter whether it was dry or not, he flicked his hand, took a towel and wiped it, then ran back to his seat and sat down, and started to eat.
After washing his hands, Bai Shanbao quickly ate his snacks.
"Delicious~~"
"Yes, yes." But Bai Shanbao was very restrained, and said: "It will be very uncomfortable if you eat too much. Let's eat two yuan first, then read a book for a while, and eat the rest at noon, okay?"
Man Bao was reluctant, but also knew that he was right, because she had eaten enough, so she nodded reluctantly, "Okay, what book do you want to read today?"
"I'm reading "Mozi". There are a lot of interesting things in it. If you can make it, it will definitely be more fun than the toys we play with now. What book are you reading?"
"I read "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", and I feel that my family members are always sick. If I can treat illnesses and heal injuries, I don't have to worry so much when I encounter emergencies."
"Okay, then I'll make toys for you to play with, and prescribe medicine for me if I'm sick."
"no problem."
"I want sweet medicine."
"How can medicine be sweet?"
"I don't care," Bai Shanbao said, "I will take sweet medicine, and I will not take bitter medicine."
Man Bao thought for a while and said: "Okay, I remember that licorice is sweet, at worst, I will add a little more for you, it should be sweet."
Keke: ... the medicine is not prescribed that way.
But at this time, the two children obviously didn't know it. They both thought the idea was good, so they took out the book and read it contentedly.
Liu Shi stood outside the window and looked at them. Unlike before, today she saw more Man Bao.
She had met Qian Shi before, but she thought Zhou Man was not like Qian Shi, although Qian Shi is sick now, she seems to be very weak, but she is not small.
It can be seen that when he was young, he was a very straightforward and strong person, but Xiao Qian was very similar to her.
And Zhou Man is even smaller, but since Zhou Man is still young, she heard that she has some congenital deficiencies and is always sick, so she thinks this is normal.
What's more, she has a pair of eyes very similar to Zhou Zhoulang.
