After two days of running away, everyone in the defense team started laughing.
"I have ruined all my family fortune by gambling and still have the nerve to go back and make trouble. If I dare to do anything again, I will be tied up on the mountain for a night to see if I can scare them to death." Zhang An said.
Qi Zhen also laughed, "I guess we can calm down for a while."
On the other side of the Bai family's yard, Bai Tian was talking to his daughter: "Oh, why are you taking them away so quickly? Aren't they going to hang themselves? Let me give them guidance. I haven't hung myself for a while, and my hands are itchy."
.”
Bai Banxia directly glared at her father, "Okay, okay, stop messing with those messy things. Now that there are children at home, what should we do if we teach Xiaocao and Xiaoyu bad things?"
Bai Shengyu, who was helping with work not far away, touched his nose. He doesn't seem to be that easy to teach, right?
"Hey, I was just kidding, my dear, why do you have no sense of humor?" Bai Tian said with a smile.
"Dad, Baishui and the others probably don't have anywhere to go. They will definitely wander around the village in the future. We can just ignore them." Bai Banxia lowered his voice, "If they mess with us, just let Qi Zhen take care of them.
You and mother don't come forward, it's your brother after all, lest they make a fuss again."
Bai Tian nodded, "Yes, they are very afraid of Qi Zhen."
"Didn't Sanlang come back with them?" Bai Banxia asked.
"Your grandfather also asked about it earlier. They said that Sanlang left the Xu family the day before yesterday and said he was going to the town to find something to do." Bai Tian sighed, "The child's injury has not healed, so he knows how to find work. You see
Look at how old Baishui is, how can he still have the nerve to come back and ask his parents for it?"
The banker's family is not rich to begin with, and it is already very hard to save some land in a lifetime. If it were a descendant of that family who lost fifty taels in gambling, it would be possible for him to be removed from the family tree.
The old man has been kind to Baishui. Baishui and his wife have right arms and legs. If they work harder, can they still starve to death?
"When I go to the county government tomorrow, tell my third cousin and ask him to keep an eye on where Saburo is in town," Bai Banxia said.
Bai Tian patted his daughter on the shoulder, "Dad, I know you are still thinking about Saburo. Although he made a big mistake, it can be seen that he has changed a lot."
"Who said I care about him? I just want to keep an eye on him so that he doesn't make mistakes and implicate our family." Bai Banxia said angrily, "If he did something like that, he should bear all the consequences himself."
"Okay, okay, whatever you say is fine." Bai Tian didn't dare to speak for Sanlang, lest he make his daughter angry.
In the blink of an eye, the next day came, Bai Banxia and Qi Zhen went to the county government office, because before they left, Qi Zhen told the officers to train themselves first, and when he came back, he would take the assessment. When everyone saw them, they rushed to talk about the recent events.
Performance.
"Two days ago, a flower-picking thief came to Zhenxi. He had some light skills, but he was caught by us after running a few times. Looking at his surprised expression, it was so satisfying."
"Yesterday, there was a fight between two people in the market. I went over and pressed each other with my hands, and they separated easily. There was a lot of cheers at the time. Hey, that was so impressive."
"Mr. Du from Beijing brought a few experts with him, but he was shocked when he met us. He probably didn't expect that our county's police officers are so powerful."
"..."
Everyone said they were so proud. Bai Banxia looked at his third cousin Zhang Tonglin, who said proudly: "I can run faster. I can visit three villages in one day to check the registered population."
Bai Banxia was a little speechless. Everyone was showing off their skills, but he was still focused on Paopao. He was wronged by calling Zhang Tonglin, so he should be called Zhang Paopao.
However, surveying and registering the county's population is also an important task. Although it is complicated and boring, someone has to do it. The third cousin can calm down and do this well, which is also a contribution to the county government and the people of the county.
Qi Zhen sparred with everyone and found that they had indeed not regressed. He rarely praised them. Now the officials were even more excited. You must know that Coach Qi's mouth could not be pried open. He had not praised them once in such a long time.
After the training, Bai Banxia told his third cousin to help keep an eye on Saburo's movements, and his third cousin immediately agreed.
Not wanting to wait for them to return to the village after their work, Ma Xiaoyu was already waiting at the entrance of the village.
"Banxia Banxia, your second uncle's family rented the shabby thatched hut in my backyard!" Ma Xiaoyu said when she saw it.
"Where did they get the money?" Bai Banxia asked.
"Bai Shengcai came back from town. He said he had earned some copper coins, so he went door to door and asked who could rent them a small house to live in. As a result, my grandma, the money man, agreed." Ma Xiaoyu pouted, "I get annoyed when I see them.
Now it’s better, my family is no longer annoying.”
Bai Banxia took her hand and persuaded: "Anyway, the other people in your family are quite annoying. It doesn't matter if you have a few more. Just treat them as air. If they dare to bully you, just come and tell me. I will smoke."
Don’t kill them!”
Ma Xiaoyu's expression was still a bit awkward, "But...but..."
"What's wrong? Is there anything else we can't say between us?"
Seeing her hesitation, Bai Banxia glanced at Qi Zhen secretly, guessing that it was a private conversation between the girl's family, so she had to ask Qi Zhen to go back first, and she would chat with Xiaoyu for a while before going home.
After Qi Zhen left, Ma Xiaoyu whispered: "People in the village said that my grandma didn't care about my reputation. They said that I am old and have reached the age of marriage. If a foreign man lives in the house, who will dare to marry me in the future?"
I?"
Bai Banxia is a modern thinker, so I really didn’t expect this, but it’s really wrong to leave it to ancient times.
Xiaoyu and Sanlang are similar in age and are not related but live under the same roof, which has no influence on Sanlang. If it is difficult for him to find a wife in the future, it will be because he has a gambling father and their family has no land and is too poor.
But Xiaoyu is different.
"Don't worry, I'll go find Saburo." Bai Banxia said.
"How could he listen to you?" Ma Xiaoyu shook her head, "Forget it, my stepmother won't arrange a good family for me anyway. I heard her tell my father a few days ago that she wanted to keep me for a few more years.
Work at home."
Bai Banxia clapped her fingers and said, "If he doesn't listen, beat him until he listens."
"Isn't this bad?" Ma Xiaoyu was a little worried, "If you kill someone, you will be prosecuted."
Bai Banxia laughed, "Are you stupid? How can he endure it before he lets go? Now go back and tell Sanlang that I'm looking for him and ask him to come to my house. You can avoid other people and just say something quietly."
"
"What should I do if he doesn't come out?" Ma Xiaoyu asked. In her impression, Sanlang was still the annoying second-rate son.
"If he doesn't come out today, will he not go out in the future? Go ahead and tell him, and if you tell him, don't come out. Otherwise, they will move away later, and your grandma will worry about you again." Bai Banxia reminded again.
Ma Xiaoyu put her hands on her hips and said, "If you're in a hurry, I'm afraid of her. If I'm in a hurry, I won't work, which will tire them out. She doesn't regard me as her granddaughter, and I'm too lazy to give her a good look."
"It's better to do less than to do more. Go ahead."
