"Are you staying in an inn?"
Li Guancha glanced at Qiao Linxi and the other children, and said, "If the girl is going to settle down in Lanqing City, I suggest you find a farmhouse. The rent for a month only costs a few hundred cents, which is much cheaper than staying in an inn. As for the farmhouse, it's a little far from the main street. Girl, look, if necessary, I know a few people. Their yard is big. They are also humble and easy to get along with. "
"That's okay. I'm worried that it will cost a lot of money for so many of us to stay in the inn, so I'll let Brother Li do it."
Qiao Linxi thanked Li Guancha from the bottom of her heart for always thinking about them. Her money was well spent.
Qiao Linshan: "Sister, do we really want to live here?"
"What? Don't you like it?"
Qiao Linshan shook her head: "It's not that I don't like it, it's that we are all children. To live here, we have to spend money to eat and drink. Our money won't last long."
"Since the money won't last long, let's find a way to make more money and settle down first."
Qiao Linxi has never worried about her own survival. There are so many people in the city, and she can support her siblings by doing anything she wants.
"Okay, don't think so much. After we find the yard, you can go shopping and buy some rouge and gouache."
Although Qiao Linxi does not recommend that girls of thirteen or fourteen years old start wearing makeup, this is the way it is in this era. People can get married at the age of fifteen, and thirteen or fourteen years old is equivalent to eighteen or nineteen years old in her world. Dress up and dress up.
"You, an old man, still have the nerve to ask for food."
A sharp sound broke the silent street. Qiao Linxi looked around and saw a well-dressed woman beating an old man in ragged clothes with a broom.
"It is only natural that a son should support his father."
"Bah, are you worthy of being my father?" the woman spat on the old man, "If you want your son to be filial, you must first be kind. See for yourself what you have done? You still expect us to provide for you in your old age? , go and have your spring and autumn dreams."
"Brother Li, this..."
Qiao Linxi was a little curious. Is this a drama about a wicked daughter-in-law not supporting her father-in-law?
"Hey..." Li Guancha sighed: "Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. You must think this woman is barbaric, right?"
Qiao Linxi nodded.
Li Guancha shook his head: "Actually, no, this woman is quite considerate, but this old man went too far."
Then, Li Guancha told Qiao Linxi about their family, and she just clicked her tongue. For the first time, she knew that there were such parents in the world. Even if tiger poison does not eat seeds, this old man has gone too far.
It's just that it's too much. This woman is a junior, so she shouldn't hit her father-in-law with a broom, right?
"You know now that we are your sons? What did you do in those early years? Tongtong is seriously ill and I asked you to use some money to treat Tongtong. He is your grandson. You would rather watch him die. Even if you die, you are not willing to take out the money in your arms."
This old man traveled all over the country in the early years and saved a lot of money, but he didn't give a word of his money to his children. At first, the woman thought that the old man was partial and did not want to see her husband.
Well, he could give the money to the second and third oldest children, but not only did the old man not give it to his son, he didn't even give it to his youngest daughter.
It's okay to say that he has no money, but they have seen all the gold and silver in vain, and the old man hid it alone.
If he hides it and uses it for himself, that's fine. He should lighten the burden on his children. But the old man had no use for his money. He didn't know where it went. When something happened to his family, he didn't say a word.
The eldest brother broke his leg a few years ago and became disabled because he had no money for medical treatment. The second child fought with others for the third child and was beaten blind.
The daughter was attracted by a local landowner and snatched her away. The landowner was older than the old man. The other party also said that if he wanted him to let his daughter go, he would have to give her money.
But the old man kept the money tightly and refused to take it out, which made the woman hate him.
"This family is in such fragmentation because of your stinginess. How can you still have the nerve to come back?"
The woman shed tears when she thought of her son and husband.
"I'm waiting to meet the fairy. What do you know?"
In addition to being stingy, the old man also had some mental problems. He said that he was sent by God to welcome the fairy. Lan Qingcheng is so dry now because the fairies haven't come yet or something.
Qiao Linxi looked at the old man from a distance, feeling that he didn't have a mental problem.
"Brother Li, is this old man pretending to be crazy and acting stupid? I look at his eyes very shrewdly."
"No, a few years ago, when his grandson had not had any accidents, he was quite normal, but he was a bit stingy. But then his grandson died, his eldest son became lame, and his second son became blind, and he began to become abnormal. Sometimes when he meets some local gangsters who make fun of him, he will even eat cow dung.”
As the old man talked, he began to dance and mutter: "I want to marry a fairy, and I want to become a fairy. Then the Dragon King's house needs a fairy. When the fairy comes, it will rain."
"What's this mess?" Qiao Linxi also began to believe that the old man was crazy, so she didn't plan to join in the fun and followed Li Guancha to the B&B he mentioned.
Unexpectedly, when passing by the old man, the old man suddenly stopped dancing and looked at Qiao Linxi and laughed: "Fairy...Fairy..."
Only then did Qiao Linxi see the old man clearly. His face was covered with mud, and the teeth in his mouth were black. As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, a rotten smell came from his mouth.
"I want to marry a fairy, I want to marry a fairy."
As he said that, the old man took out a key from his arms and gave it to Qiao Linxi. He also patted her on the butt: "Fairy wife..."
"Master host, this is the key to entering the courtyard three times. The old man is not crazy. You will find out the truth later."
The old man was really pretending to be crazy, but Qiao Linxi didn't know the location of the yard.
"bride price……"
The old man stuffed another ball of cloth into Qiao Linxi's face, then ran away laughing.
Qiao Linxi held the key and the cloth, a little at a loss, and then looked at the woman: "Madam, how about you take this?"
"We don't want his things. We have severed ties with him."
After the woman finished speaking, she looked at Qiao Linxi and kindly warned her: "The old man is not mentally healthy. You'd better stay away from him. Don't be the one who gets hurt."
After the woman left, Qiao Linxi opened the cloth and looked at it. The cloth was dark and had the same rancid smell as the old man's mouth.
The cloth was really a map. Qiao Linxi didn't know the location, so she asked Li Guancha.
Unexpectedly, Li Guan changed his face when he saw it.
