Chapter 230 The Patriarch Grandpa is Mighty

Bai Ruozhu felt that she had really worried too much before. They didn't want her to show her face at all, so why would they ask her to cook?

Lin Ping'er also felt strange and asked in a low voice: "Who do you think is cooking? It smells pretty good. Your milk and Ruolan don't have this ability."

"They were probably invited from outside." Bai Ruozhu thought for a while and said.

"Your grandpa has really invested his money this time." Lin Ping'er curled her lips and said.

Bai Ruozhu knew that her mother was angry on her behalf, and felt funny in her heart. She was asked to cook but she was afraid of the hard work, and she was not allowed to cook but she felt that she would not have a chance to show off. This was really a contradiction.

"Mom, I'm so happy and relaxed, please don't say anything." Bai Ruozhu warned her mother in a low voice for fear of causing further trouble.

Even though the old man and Bai Yibo pretended not to see them, the old lady couldn't keep calm and stood at the door of the kitchen and kept poking them out with her eyes.

At this time, a woman from the same village called Mrs. Bai and said, "Stop working so hard. Didn't we invite a chef to make a banquet? Just talk to us and take a rest."

Old Mrs. Bai smiled at the old woman who spoke and said, "Well, I'm just a hard worker, so I can't help it. Can the person who invited me feel relieved? I have to keep an eye on it to avoid wasting my family's things."

She could lower her voice, but Bai Ruozhu's sharp ears still heard it, and she couldn't help but feel funny in her heart. She asked why the old lady was still at the door of the kitchen on such an important day. She wanted to say hello to the guests, but was worried about inviting them. Here's the chef.

To put it bluntly, since you can't bear to part with that little thing, don't use that face to hire a chef. Now you are staring at someone so stingyly, and you won't have to be criticized for being petty, isn't it even more embarrassing?

Of course, this was the matter of the old house and had nothing to do with Bai Ruozhu. She was just making a fuss.

"Yihong, what you said at the opening of the school was really good. It's a shame for you, Mr. Bai!" The speaker was Mr. Wang. He had just come over and greeted Bai Yihong with a smile.

Bai Yihong blushed and said, "Stop praising me, Mr. Wang. I haven't read a book and can't make any great sense."

Mr. Wang Qi patted him on the shoulder and said, "But it's a real truth. People in the village say that what you said is good, and they should let the baby study hard."

At this time, an old man next to Bai Fu looked over and asked in surprise: "You invited Yihong to speak at the opening of your village school? Didn't you let Yihiro go?"

Bai Ruozhu remembered that this person was Bai Fu's cousin Bai Zhangui. He also had a brother named Bai Zhanfu. They were the sons of Bai Fu's father and younger brother.

Relatives in the Bai clan all live in Maple Leaf Village, so I really didn’t know that Bai Yihong was invited to speak at the opening of Houshan Village School today, but it was strange that Bai Zhangui was invited. Shouldn’t Bai Yibo, who is a scholar, be invited?

Bai Yibo looked a little embarrassed and said hesitantly: "I have to help my father greet the guests at home, but I don't have that free time."

A look of disdain flashed across Elder Wang's face, and he said directly to Bai Zhangui: "The village specially invited Yihong to give a speech. If our village school can be run, Yihong must remember his first contribution, and he took the lead in donating money." , and he also made tables and chairs for the school, and now many people in the village are very grateful to him."

Bai Zhangui looked at Bai Yihong again, showing surprise, and said with some emotion: "I haven't seen Yihong for several years, and he is becoming more and more capable. I used to think that he is a hard-working and hard-working person, and I was right." As he said that, he looked at Bai Yihong again. He also smiled and walked over and patted Bai Yihong on the shoulder.

At this time, there were voices outside, and a loud voice rang out, "Brother, I'm here!"

An old man with white hair and beard walked in. It was Bai Fu's younger brother Bai Lu, but his beard and hair were white, so he looked like Bai Fu's brother.

"Clan leader, you are here. We were just saying that Yihong is becoming more and more capable and has brought glory to our Bai clan." Bai Zhangui smiled and learned what Elder Wang just said again. Bai Lu nodded repeatedly and looked towards Bai Yihong said: "Yihong, well done. Although you didn't have the opportunity to study, you learned the true principles of life and made contributions to the village. You are much more useful than those who have read the books of sages all their lives!"

Bai Ruozhu almost laughed when she heard this. This clan leader really didn't get along with her grandfather. He was all fired up as soon as he entered the door. Moreover, he was so powerful that he was not afraid of Bai Fu at all. He was so awesome.

After Bai Lu finished speaking, he walked over and patted Bai Yihong on the shoulder, saying, "I've made it difficult for you these years."

Bai Ruozhu noticed that there was pity in Bai Lu's eyes, as if he was speaking from the bottom of his heart, not just pretending. She couldn't help but think that the patriarch's grandfather's experience was almost exactly the same as her father's.

At that time, Bai Fu and Bai Lu's father made some money doing business outside, and returned home in plain clothes. He thought that he had never read a book in his life and could not compare with the literati outside. He wanted his son to study and gain fame and become an official in the future. . Therefore, the old man put all his energy on Bai Fu, while Bai Lu, who was born a few years later, was unable to study due to limited family conditions. Because he didn't study, he seemed to be less fortunate than his elder brother. He worked day and night for the family, and even went out to do odd jobs during the slack time to support his literary elder brother.

Because of similar experiences, when Bai Lu saw Bai Yihong, he seemed to see his former self, and his attitude towards Bai Yihong became much closer.

The old man's beard trembled with anger. He knew that his younger brother would make trouble when he came, but with so many guests watching, it would not be nice to quarrel. He simply pretended not to hear it and pulled Bai Yibo to follow Others chatted.

But Mrs. Bai glared at Bai Yihong at the door of the kitchen and cursed in a low voice: "You bitch with your elbows turned outwards."

Bai Ruozhu listened attentively and almost wanted to go over and scold her. Why is this damn old witch so arrogant? She called her son a "bitch", so what are you doing?

Fortunately, no one heard her. Old Mrs. Bai continued to stare at the chef in the kitchen and muttered again: "Stop putting some oil, there is no such waste. My family is not a landlord."

The invited chef was unhappy for a long time. He turned around and said loudly: "This vegetable oil is missing a lot. It will be a loss to your family's face. Don't say that I am not good at my craftsmanship."

Bai Fu heard the commotion and glared at the old lady fiercely, telling her to restrain herself. The old lady curled her lips and didn't dare to talk about the cook anymore.

Bai Yihong and Bai Zepei also came over at this time. They greeted the elders as soon as they entered the door. Bai Lu looked at the two of them and praised each of them. They were impartial, which made Bai Ruozhu like him a little more. , she thought the patriarch’s grandpa would keep praising her second brother for passing the criminal examination.

When the old man saw Bai Zepei over there, he shouted to Bai Zepei as if he was afraid that others would snatch his signboard: "Erlang, you didn't pay me a visit first when you came? Come here and talk!"
