The woman with the abacus didn't even raise her head, and the corners of her lips curved into a contemptuous arc.
"Eight villages within ten miles, if we really go up to the top, every household will be related to each other."
"So what if he's from the same village? Is there any reason for him to eat Overlord's meal? If he really is the cousin of the general, how could he not even be able to get sixty cents out of his pocket?"
The cook nodded, "I think so too, wife, we beat that boy and confiscated the fifty-two pennies he had on him. What should we do next?"
The woman in red said without thinking, "Not counting the extra food he added later, based on the previous sixty cents, he still owes us eight cents."
"I'll lock him up for a day to weaken his spirit, and then let him do odd jobs in the backyard after he's subdued. After three days, he'll be released as a debt!"
"Daughter-in-law, what if he doesn't want to work even if I beat him to death? What should I do?"
The proprietress in red clothes raised her head impatiently while holding down her abacus, "Why are you worried about so many things? If he is not willing to work, then keep him in detention. I want to see if he is a tough talker or a tough guy!"
The cook nodded calmly, not at all as ferocious as he had been in front of Dabai before.
He even smiled compensatingly at the woman in red: "That's what my wife said."
The woman in red was indifferent to his attempts to please her and kept her head buried in her accounts.
The cook stood beside him, holding his chubby and greasy cheeks and looking at her.
With an oval face, a pointed chin, and thin eyebrows, my wife is so pretty...
After thinking about it for a while, the woman in red raised her head and found that the cook was still standing in front of her, staring straight at her with his two big eyes, and her eyebrows suddenly furrowed.
"If you don't do something, why are you just looking around?"
"I'm not looking blindly. I'm looking at my wife. My wife is pretty."
"Go, go, go, what are you thinking about in broad daylight? You have so much free time. Have you finished your work?"
"I've finished my reply to my wife."
"Is everything done? Our shop is open for both morning and evening meals, so you have to go and distribute the noodles you need at night!"
"It's ready, there are two big tanks!"
"Has the filling been mixed yet?"
"It's also mixed, and the meat and vegetable dishes are both intact."
The woman in red thought carefully, "Then you go and watch from the side. There has been a lot of noise recently."
The cook nodded happily, "I will do whatever my wife tells me to do. Then I will go to the backyard and watch."
He stumbled to the backyard.
The conversation between the couple was not missed word by word by the waiters working in the lobby. Both of them had been working in the store for several years. At that time, the proprietress was not the one with the abacus in front of the counter.
The landlady at that time was very kind to the boss. She rushed over to knead the dough, wake up the noodles and mix ingredients, and even gave birth to a child for the boss.
But men are weird and don't cherish his kindness. Less than half a year after his ex-wife died in childbirth, he married the current one.
Today, this person does nothing. He never enters the kitchen. He just clings to the account books and money and shouts at the shopkeeper.
But the shopkeeper was happy and stayed busy in the backyard kitchen.
The guys were a little worried, and they all despised the shopkeeper in their hearts.
All the mistreatment from the ex-wife was paid to the wife behind. Oh, I really feel sorry for the wife in front of me.
By the way, the one in front of me was also kind to these guys and never shouted around. How could I be like this one now? She was like a queen...
…
In this way, Dabai stayed at Zhangji Baozi Shop for two days and two nights.
For Dabai, these two days and two nights were just two days and two nights of fighting in the woodshed, gambling that he would not work in the shop.
But for Lao Wang's family in Changping Village, it was two days and two nights in hell.
Wang Hongquan was exhausted and could no longer walk half a step. Yang Huamei was even more anxious and angry. She fainted several times due to worry and fear. She was looking for someone outside in the middle of the day and suffered from heat stroke several times.
Fortunately, there were people around at the time, and they pinched and poured water on the person, so they were able to wake him up.
It was night now, and Uncle Fu had just left. Wang Shuanzi's two sisters, Wang Cuihua and Wang Chunhua, came over, as did Sun and Bao Suyun.
"Mei'er, drink the medicine, and I'll give you a whole mouthful to fill your stomach."
Mrs. Sun stood beside the bed and handed over the medicine bowl.
Yang Huamei shook her head and said feebly: "Third sister-in-law, I'm not sick. There's no need to spend money on medicine."
As soon as Baymax comes back, I can jump out of bed immediately.
"You brought this disease on yourself." The second sister, Wang Chunhua, is a very unforgiving person and will say whatever is on her mind.
"You said it's a hot day and it's hard for both adults and children to stay at home, isn't it nice? The mother and son had to quarrel, arguing that the younger one ran away from home, and you were worried when he couldn't be found. Why bother?"
Wang Cuihua secretly tugged on Wang Chunhua's sleeves, signaling her to say less.
Wang Chunhua shook off Wang Cuihua's hand and said, "Sister, please don't let me say something. I have wanted to say it for a long time."
"It's true Mei'er, no matter how Dabai offends, he's still your son, and he's still a half-year-old child. Just give him some advice. As for forcing him to run away from home in such a hurry? This is nothing. This is not the first time. Last time I ran away from home and came back with a limp leg. I don’t know what will happen this time! If something happens to him, I, the second aunt... ugh..."
Wang Chunhua couldn't speak anymore, turned sideways and covered her face while crying.
Normally, Yang Huamei would definitely not let Wang Chunhua point her nose in such a lecture.
Who is she? She is an aunt, and her nephew occasionally comes over to stay for a couple of days, and is it a big deal to give her something to eat and drink during the holidays?
The person who truly feeds the child spoonful by spoonful, guides the child to learn to walk step by step, and is the one who keeps watch over the child when the child is sick and undressed, is the child’s biological mother!
But Yang Huamei didn't want to say a word of these excuses at this time.
If Dabai is not found, what will she do even if she wins the argument with Wang Chunhua?
Yang Huamei could only cry so hard that her heart was broken.
Sun and Bao Suyun also persuaded her to take care of herself.
Wang Cuihua patted Wang Chunhua on the back and turned to comfort Yang Huamei: "Mei'er, your second sister didn't mean to accuse you. She was also worried about Dabai, her maternal aunt and nephew. Dabai often stayed at her house when she was a child. This kind of affection It’s also there.”
"Dabai's aunt, you are anxious, we aunts are also anxious, we are all the same, we all grew up watching Dabai." The person who stood up to speak was Sun.
Wang Cuihua nodded.
Mrs. Sun glanced at Wang Chunhua again: "Mei'er is Dabai's mother. It doesn't matter whether she beats, scolds or kisses Dabai. Except for Shuanzi, no one in our house can compare to her love for Dabai. That sincerity.”
"It's not wrong to hope that your son will become a dragon. Everyone knows that Dabai has a naughty temper, so everything happened at that moment. If we really think about Dabai, we should stop blaming Mei'er, because Mei'er feels sadder than anyone else."
"What Third Sister-in-law said is reasonable. The top priority is for us to help find someone." Bao Suyun also joined in.
Yang Huamei glanced at her two sisters-in-law gratefully, tears streaming down her face again.
Wang Chunhua was a little unconvinced. She wiped the tears from her eyes and turned around to say a few more words, but her eldest sister Wang Cuihua held her hand down.
