Chapter 444

The servant who brought water to soak Bai Erlang's feet saw his young master running out covered in dirt, and immediately put down the wooden basin and ran up, "Second Young Master, Second Young Master, why are you so dirty, didn't you just take a shower?"

Bai Erlang finally found someone, grabbed him and jumped and said, "A burglar broke into my house, and my things are gone!"

The little servant understood as soon as he thought about it, "Is it the box under the bed?"

Bai Erlang stared, "How do you know?"

"It was taken by the wife," the servant said. "Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival. This morning, the wife sent her sisters in the house to clean and sprinkle realgar powder in the room, and found a box under the bed."

The servant whispered: "Master, your box is not locked. The sisters opened it as soon as it was opened, and then the wife came, and she had the box removed."

Bai Erlang was stunned, "My mother didn't say anything when I was eating just now..."

The little servant said uncertainly, "Maybe you forgot?"

Bai Erlang's eyes were red, and he ran to his parents' main house.

The little servant couldn't help shouting, "Master, you don't need to soak your feet anymore. The old lady said that May is very evil, and you have to soak your feet before going to bed..."

Bai Erlang rushed into his parents' room and asked his mother directly, "Mother, where is my money?"

Master Bai, who was soaking his feet, raised his head and asked, "What's the money?"

Mrs. Bai ignored Mr. Bai first, and said softly to Erlang Bai: "Erlang, it's not safe to put so much money on yours, so my mother should keep it for you. After you use it, ask your mother if it's okay? "

"No, Manbao and the others all received their money, why can't I take it myself?" Bai Erlang was very angry and felt that his mother had greatly offended him by taking the money without his consent, so he Roared: "It was the same before, I obviously gave me the lucky money, and later took it back!"

Mrs. Bai frowned slightly, and still said softly: "Mother, that's for your own good, you spend too much money..."

Bai Erlang exclaimed, "That's my money too!"

Master Bai listened to the argument between the mother and son, his face sank, and he wiped his feet and threw the towel into the tub. He said angrily, "Erlang, who taught you to talk to your mother like this?"

The mother and son fell silent for a while.

Master Bai put on clogs, dragged him over, and said, "No matter what you do, you shouldn't be as loud as your mother. Didn't Mr. Zhuang and I teach you manners?"

If it was before, Mr. Bai would not have said such things, but after seeing Mr. Zhuang teaching his children a lot, he also knew that sometimes it was useless to scold him blindly.

You also have to reason with your child, even if it doesn’t make sense, or the child doesn’t listen, you have to tell it.

Seeing that his eyes were red and full of tears, Master Bai calmed down fortunately. Then he looked at his wife and asked with a frown, "Speaking of which, what's going on?"

Bai Shanbao, who was separated by a wall, had already fallen asleep in a daze, and suddenly a loud "ah woo" made him startled, his hands and feet jumped and he opened his eyes.

He sat up a little confused, and then vaguely heard a loud cry from the next door. Although it was not clear, there was only one person next door who could cry like this.

Bai Shanbao got out of bed immediately, and Daji, who lived next door, also opened the door and walked out.

Bai Shanbao stood on tiptoe and looked in the direction of the Bai family, and asked, "Daji, what's wrong with Bai Er?"

Daji pricked up his ears and listened, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, why don't you send someone to ask?"

"Go, go."

Daji went to find someone immediately.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the Bai family was all about to go to sleep. Although it was the landlord's house, they couldn't waste lamp oil, right?

But at this moment, the lanterns were lit up in the main courtyard, and several places were lit up. Shiro Erlang sat on the ground with his eyes closed and wept.

Mrs. Bai was so angry that she felt distressed and could not beat him, so she could only continue to comfort him, "Okay, okay, Mommy, can I give you a piece?"

"I don't want it, I want everything, it's all my money."

Mrs. Bai insisted, "What are you doing with so much money as a child?"

Bai Erlang was about to roll all over the place when he suddenly remembered what Bai Shanbao and Manbao had said. He immediately gave up his mother and turned to look at his father. He was clearly crying, but he still grabbed his father's trouser legs intermittently. Said: "Father, both Shanbao and Manbao's money are taken by himself..."

He sobbed: "In the future, if the farm asks for money, I will also be a part of it..."

Mrs. Bai immediately said, "You need to tell your mother with money, and she will definitely give it to you."

"No, I want to get the money myself," Bai Erlang insisted, "It's not pleasant to reach out for money, and I don't want to ask my mother for money, nor do I want to ask my father for it!"

Master Bai squinted his eyes and was about to speak. An old lady said from outside the door, "Master, ma'am, the old lady asked what's the matter?"

Master Bai said: "It's okay, Erlang is a little awkward, and it will be fine in a while, mammy, go back to serve mother, don't let her old man be frightened."

The old mama glanced at the room and saw that the second young master was intact, but he was sitting on the ground by himself, maybe he was wronged.

She calmed down and responded with a smile, as long as she didn't do anything.

Mrs. Bai hurriedly went to send it off, and she mentioned the reason by the way. Knowing that it was the matter of money management, the old mama didn't ask any more questions.

Mrs. Bai breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the room. Master Bai said to her, "Give the money to Erlang, and let him take care of his own money."

Mrs. Bai was stunned and lost her voice: "How can this work, so much money."

Master Bai insisted, "Give it to him, the child is already old, and now he manages a farm by himself, what does it look like if he has no money in his hands? Besides, he earned the money himself."

"That was earned from you," Mrs. Bai insisted. "This child can't have so much money in his hands."

Mr. Bai frowned, obviously not very happy. In the end, the trouble came to Mrs. Bai. Now it's not Erlang Bai, but Mrs. Bai.

The couple quarreled at the time, and the voices became more and more loud. Finally, the old mama came again.

This time, she led the family of three to the old lady's yard.

The old lady's hair was all loose, and she was obviously going to sleep. She simply twisted her hair, sat on the couch and asked, "What's going on with your family tonight, one by one will not stop."

Mrs. Bai wiped away her tears and explained the matter again, begging the old lady to call the shots for her, she cried, "Erlang is my son, can I still harm him? Mother, you don't know, this child has been in trouble two years ago. He wanted to take the New Year's money himself, but what happened to him?"

Mrs. Bai said, "So much money was spent in less than half a year, and it was distributed to others."

Bai Erlang exclaimed, "I don't have any, all my money is for buying things."
