The man's disappointment was visible to the naked eye. He took two steps back angrily and walked to the sick old man's side to help him.
The room fell silent for a moment.
The little girl was still shrinking shyly in the corner, looking at Fang Chenyu and Fang Chenyu from time to time.
Fang Chenyu also looked at her curiously. The two looked at each other, and the little girl immediately faced the wall again.
Finally, Li Yu couldn't help but speak first: "May I ask what you call me?"
"Oh." The man raised his head and pointed at himself, "My name is Zhou Fugui."
Then he pointed to the little girl and the old man: "This is my daughter, called Mao Dan. This is my father..."
Fang Chenyu burst into laughter: "Maodan, what a stupid name?"
The little girl flattened her mouth, the curiosity in her eyes turned into disappointment, and she lowered her head against the wall.
Zhou Fugui didn't care. He rubbed his head and smiled: "It's like this here. It's easy to make a living with a low reputation."
Li Yu asked: "Then what do we need to do here?"
Zhou Fugui said: "The noble man who came before told me that the two young masters will stay with me for a while, eat and sleep with us, and go to the fields with me during the day."
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to, as long as you don't run around, you can do whatever you want."
"By the way, the nobleman has prepared two sets of clothes and bedding for you to sleep at night. However, the nobleman has told you to wash your own clothes and bedding. We can't interfere."
Fang Chenyu said aggrievedly: "How much money did my father give you to let us live here?"
Zhou Fugui showed a hint of shyness on his face, and said with some embarrassment: "After the two young masters left, the noble man said that he would give you five taels of silver."
"Fifty taels of silver? We are only worth five taels of silver... just gouge him to death." Fang Chenyu muttered in a low voice, then raised his head and said, "I want convenience, where is the latrine?"
Zhou Fugui was stunned for a moment, pointed to the door and said, "It's convenient outside."
Fang Chenyu's face suddenly turned red: "How can it be convenient outside? No! I have to go to the latrine."
Zhou Fugui looked troubled, stood up and walked to the outhouse.
Without much time, he turned around and came back with a wooden bucket. He pointed at the bucket and said, "Young master, you can use this bucket if you want, but this is only for use at night..."
Looking at the dirty and mottled bucket, which seemed to exude a dark purple evil aura, Fang Chenyu and Li Yu both felt horrified at the same time.
The huts of Yucai Primary School are luxurious.
There are pure white toilets inside, but if they are allowed to use this thing... it will be fatal!
Fang Chenyu's face turned pale and he shook his head wildly: "It's not convenient for me anymore...I'm not convenient anymore..."
He turned to Li Yu and whispered urgently: "Old Li, I can't pull him out... This is no place for humans!"
Li Yu was confused and said bitterly: "I can't pull him out either..."
While the two were talking quietly, Zhou Fugui had already carried out the convenient wooden barrel.
When he returned again, the room fell into silence again.
No one spoke for more than an hour.
Mao Dan had gotten rid of his nervousness and was lying on the wooden table in the corner of the room, facing a torn notebook with the corners rolled up, and gesticulating seriously with a branch on it.
Fang Chenyu and Li Yu looked out the window from time to time, feeling a little anxious in their hearts.
It wasn't that I was in a hurry to go home, but my pocket watch was confiscated.
I don’t know what time it is now, but I always wear a pocket watch so I can tell the time.
I didn't feel that way before, but now I can only count the time according to the weather, and I feel unspeakably awkward.
Seeing that the sky was starting to get a little gloomy, the man got up and went to the outhouse to work on his own.
The stove was outside, and the men were tinkling and clanging, not knowing what they were doing.
Li Yu and Fang Chenyu didn't know what to do, so they just sat close to each other.
Fang Chenyu frowned and said, "Lao Li, we won't sleep with them at night... I sleep on the same bed myself."
"Me too... But now we seem to have no choice." Li Yu didn't know what to do.
Fang Chenyu complained to himself: "If I had known better, I wouldn't have made money, and let him bear the debt by himself! How about now, how about helping him pay off the debt and trying to torture me? When I go back, I will tell my grandfather that he abused me." !”
"Don't dare! My father will kill us both if he finds out." Li Yu quickly stopped him.
After he said this, Fang Chenyu immediately shut up.
I didn't feel anything before, but after being beaten by my uncle, I realized that he was a real cruel person.
This spanking was so painful that it hurt... I felt so anxious that I didn't want to urinate for him.
I thought it would take a few days, but I didn’t expect that the pain would disappear the next day!
If he gets beaten again for complaining, it doesn't seem to be a problem to beat him for several days in a row.
"Lao Li, I'm thirsty..."
"There is water here, do you want to drink it?" Li Yu picked up the water bowl beside him that had not been touched.
Fang Chenyu looked at the water bowl, took a few deep breaths, and finally couldn't hold back his thirst and closed his eyes to take a big gulp.
But as soon as the water entered his mouth, he immediately spat it out.
"tUi! Why does it smell fishy?!" Fang Chenyu complained loudly, "I want to drink honey water!"
When he shouted, the cat in the corner of the room was startled.
Like a frightened deer, he immediately stood up, twisted his little hands and leaned against the wall, looking at Fang Chenyu cautiously.
Fang Chenyu was happy when he saw this, and said in a low voice: "This is good, isn't this a maid? Why don't we have female classmates in our school?"
"We just arrived, don't be too presumptuous." Li Yu reminded.
"It's okay, I can't beat the big one. I still don't understand this little rUa Po'er?" Fang Chenyu smiled, waved his hand towards the corner, and said with full force, "Mao Dan! Go wash the dishes for me. Come on, change it to a bowl of honey water, I always drink sweet water at home, this one is tasteless!"
Mao Dan slowly walked up to Fang Chenyu and the two of them, and said in a voice as quiet as a mosquito: "What is honey water?"
Fang Chenyu was dumbfounded: "You don't even know about honey water? Water with honey added, my God, you've never drank it, have you? Do you know about honey?"
A look of confusion appeared on Mao Dan's little face: "Honey knows, I haven't drank it."
"Have you ever eaten candy?"
"I've had candy...but I don't have any at home now." Mao Dan responded carefully.
Fang Chenyu felt angry for a while and waved his hand: "I won't drink anymore! If you don't have it, just don't have it. What a useless place. It's nothing if you want anything."
When Mao Dan heard this, his heart was instantly cast into a shadow... He lowered his head and walked back to the corner.
At this moment, the man who was busy in the outer room came back with a steaming wooden basin and a small bowl in his hand.
Walking to the Maodan table, he quickly moved the things on the table to other places, and then moved the table to the center of the room.
"You two gentlemen, it's getting late, it's time to eat."
The two jumped out of bed and leaned their heads towards the table.
There were a dozen steamed potatoes in the wooden basin, and the bowl next to them contained pickle strips, which were dark and cut into different thicknesses.
Fang Chenyu said in surprise: "Where's the food?"
Zhou Fugui pointed to the basin: "Isn't that right? Potatoes."
"Aren't potatoes a vegetable?" Fang Chenyu was surprised and confused, "How can potatoes be used as food? And there isn't even a bit of oil in it, is it really edible?"
