Chapter 214
As long as your mouth is not damaged, there is no need to delay the quarrel.
Boss Shen and Liu Suniang argued for a long time about who should repair the wall and who should not.
At first, he was supported by anger, but later he was simply unable to lose face.
They were arguing and no one tried to stop them.
Xing'er had difficulty getting out of bed. Mr. Zhou was doing business while feeling dizzy, forcing a smile and talking about incense to the customers who were clearly listening to the excitement.
What else could a child do when faced with something like this except standing there? It was already a relief that he didn't freak out.
Aunt Zhao went to buy groceries, octagonal vine...
Tian Bajiao gave Boss Shen an astonished look, as if he admired how noisy she was. In fact, he was just watching the fun and didn't mind getting involved.
In this situation, whoever leaves first loses. Boss Shen and Liu Suniang could only hold on and argued until their throats were on fire.
How did it end?
Finally, Liu Suniang, unable to bear it any longer, kicked down the half-built wall and said, "If you don't want to build it, then no one should build it. Just leave it like this!"
Boss Shen: "Then just leave it there!"
They just leaned on a crutch and took a big stride and quickly disappeared from the sight of Tian Bajiao and Duofu.
Tian Bajiao didn't think anything of it, but Duofu was shocked: "It was just built..."
Tian Bajiao: "Tell your mother that there is no need to bother."
Doing this is simply a thankless task. Aunt Zhao knew that the wall was the source of the trouble, so she never even mentioned it, let alone touching it. She just pretended not to see it every day when she went in and out. This is what a smart person who knows the limits does.
Anyway, I'm not taking the money, and if I'm too nosy, it will only annoy people. It's better to just do my job well, and maybe I'll be more likable.
Shuang Gui had good intentions in cleaning up these things, but unfortunately neither side really appreciated it, so let it be.
Whoever can't stand it will naturally build it up.
But before that, there is new excitement to watch.
Shuang Gui was indeed pregnant, a little later than Lady Wang, only about a month later, which was after she started taking the medicine.
Her menstrual period was irregular. When her father-in-law came to resign for her in the afternoon, his face was full of worry. His words were full of complaints about his daughter-in-law, saying that she couldn't even notice such a thing. It was really stupid.
Tian Bajiao and Boss Shen strained their heads to listen to him. "She needs to rest and recuperate, otherwise she will definitely not survive. So I won't let her continue to work. I'm taking Duofu back with me. I'll find a wife for Second Master and Madam Liu later."
"No need," Liu Suniang no longer believed him. "My husband is almost well now, and I'm fine too. How about this? You leave Duofu to us to help, and we'll pay him as usual."
"Oh, what's the point of talking about wages? What can Duofu do? If Second Master and Madam Liu don't mind, just ask her to stay. Just give her a bite of food every day, and don't mention wages."
This old doctor is quite generous.
Liu Suniang was not happy to take advantage of him for nothing: "How about becoming my apprentice? Duofu, would you like to learn perfume making from me?"
Boss Shen turned his head away from the wall and asked, "Is Mr. Liu really that kind?"
Her face was full of disbelief.
Tian Bajiao said, "Maybe. I saw that she was quite nice to Duofu."
Although her words couldn't be described as gentle and soft, that was Liu Suniang, and since she didn't say she disliked her, it basically meant she liked her.
Boss Shen curled his lips and said, "I'd rather believe that she ate rat poison and got confused."
If Liu Suniang was a good person, she would feel very uncomfortable.
They had been arguing for so long. If she was a good person, then what was she?
"What do you think? If we go over there now and grab the child for ourselves, what do we do? A child can't eat much anyway, and we'll have more people to help."
Tian Bajiao touched her head and asked, "Boss, are you okay? Did you also take rat poison?"
"Tsk, what are you talking about!" Boss Shen glanced at her and opened her hand.
Tian Bajiao said:
"What are you talking about? We're old acquaintances and have a good relationship. What does it have to do with us?"
"We've met a few times,"
Boss Shen himself felt that what he said was unreliable and said in a distracted manner, "Forget it, forget it, who cares? Maybe in a couple of days, the kid can't stand it anymore. Then we can go and snatch him away. Others will praise us when they hear about it, which will be better for business."
"Boss, you are wise." Tian Bajiao replied sincerely.
When the two of them leaned against the wall again, everyone next door was seeing off their guests, so they missed a part of the conversation. They quickly leaned on their crutches and leaned over to the window to see that the old doctor was leaving alone.
"Then Duofu will stay," Tian Bajiao thought thoughtfully, "which is also a good thing for her."
"Are you kidding?" Boss Shen asked her with a frown, "You think following Liu Suniang is a good thing? Then you're going too?"
"That's not what I meant. I meant... after all, it's better for her to follow Madam Liu than her mother. That mother is a clay Buddha who can't even protect herself, while Madam Liu is indestructible. Apart from herself, who can bully her? If she truly protects her, that old woman won't be able to cause trouble for Duofu. It's better to endure a little bullying than to be a child bride."
Tian Bajiao met Boss Shen's indescribable gaze and said unconfidently, "Right?"
Boss Shen: "I know you're just trying to fool me...but I really like hearing it. Keep it up!"
She patted Tian Bajiao's shoulder earnestly and said, "You have the talent to be a treacherous minister."
Isn’t this an insult?
Tian Bajiao smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, boss. When you become emperor, remember to make me the prime minister."
"Don't worry," Boss Shen responded cheerfully, "I just love being a tyrant."
It doesn’t matter what Ai is, she is definitely not Boss Shen.
Tian Bajiao is not exaggerating, there are not many people like her who are bold enough to make fun of the emperor.
At least Boss Shen is not among them.
When Boss Shen wanted to save Liu Suniang, he also had to consider Mr. Zhou, the chief clerk.
Now people even say things like "I love to be a tyrant", if there is no problem then hell.
Tian Bajiao, who had the same questions, smiled honestly and had no intention of telling Lady Wang.
It was decided that Duofu would stay next door.
She should be happy.
Tian Bajiao was just average because she came knocking on her door in the middle of the night and asked through the crack in the window, "Auntie, are you asleep?"
Tian Bajiao: ...
"Wake up," she opened the window and looked at the hateful child who disturbed her sleep, wondering, "What are you doing?"
"I can't sleep." She lowered her head and pursed her lips, looking very sad.
Tian Bajiao fumbled around for a while and threw a sachet to her: "It's for calming the nerves. Put it next to your pillow and you'll sleep better."
"It's not that I can't sleep," Duofu muttered, "my head is a mess."
Tian Bajiao looked at her head and said, "Your hair is a mess too... Forget it, come in and tell me."
She was too lazy to open it, so she pushed the window wider and told her to climb in.
