Chapter 163 Opportunity to learn

In the next few days, Gan Tian paid special attention to Ni's actions. She really couldn't believe that Ni changed so easily.

These days, she didn't even go to the shop with her mother. She was making a fuss to play with her aunt. It wasn't that Gan Tian didn't want to be with her mother, but she really wanted to see Ni.

Now the Gan family has established a good relationship with the people in the alley. People come to the Gan family every day. Ni has changed so much that it is impossible for those people not to talk about Ni.

She really wants to know if Ni has done anything bad behind their backs.

Sure enough, when the aunt was steaming buns, someone came to chat with her.

"Mother Pan, have you heard?"

"Something happened at the home of Ni, the woman who works in your house."

Obviously, there were only her, her aunt, and the little heroine Shen Chutang in the whole kitchen, but the woman insisted on lowering her voice and acting very mysterious.

"Ni's son, Rong Ge'er, was cheated out of twenty taels of silver and is crying at home."

Pan Niang was a little surprised: "He was cheated?"

"Rong Ge'er is usually lazy and likes to make friends with bad people. Two days ago, the night before Ni was beaten, he invited a bunch of friends to dinner, but for some reason, he insisted on doing business together, and the other party ran away with the money."

"I live next door and heard it clearly. He discussed with someone to do business with fifty taels. Fortunately, my family didn't have that much money, otherwise he would have been cheated out of fifty taels."

Gan Tian was shocked.

[No wonder Ni wanted to come back so much, it turned out that her son had spent all the money. 】

【Alas, instead of letting her son spend the money, it would be better for her to save the money and eat something good. I can only say that feeling sorry for a man will bring bad luck for the rest of your life. 】

Pan Niang asked: "Have you reported it to the authorities?"

"I did, but it was useless."

"They wrote a contract, which said in black and white that they agreed to give the other party twenty taels of silver, regardless of whether they made a profit or a loss."

"You don't know yet, the government offices nowadays prefer to have less trouble than more. The contract says that they don't care about whether they make a profit or a loss, so naturally the people in the government offices are unwilling to intervene."

"They have to admit it whether they want to or not."

Twenty taels of silver.

These twenty taels of silver were sewn by Ni Shi stitch by stitch. She worked hard to make money for so long, but ended up being harmed in such a way. I'm afraid Ni Shi must be very sad, right?

Pan Niang put herself in the situation. If her two sons were so wasteful, she would give them a good beating.

Pan Niang lifted the lid of the pot, and steam came out of the pot, making the whole place look white. "Business is not so easy these days. We make money because our shop has things that others don't have."

She used tongs to pick up the hot, white and tender big steamed buns one by one. "They always think it's easy to make money, and they don't think about the chaos in the outside world. Business is not so easy to do."

The neighbor agreed with Pan Niang's idea.

"Yes, business has been bad recently. The winery at the entrance of the alley closed down a few days ago. It's hard to make money these days. Everyone is in a bad mood and people are drinking less."

If it weren't for the difficulties to a certain extent, those drunkards would never give up their hobbies.

The woman chatted with Pan Niang for a while, and when she saw that it was almost time to cook, she hurried away.

Shen Chutang, the little heroine, was extremely well-behaved. She turned a deaf ear to the outside world and didn't listen to the gossip at all. She took a stick and scratched on the ground, learning the characters that Gan Huaibi taught her.

She helped Gan Huaibi with his homework twice, and was discovered by Yu Wenshu.

Yu Wenshu beat Gan Huaibi severely.

Shen Chutang was so scared when she saw that Gan Huaibi's buttocks were beaten and bruised that her eyes turned red, like a frightened little rabbit.

Gan Huaibi dragged his beaten buttocks, sniffing and pretending to be strong: "Why are you crying? My uncle looks fierce, but he didn't use any force. It doesn't hurt at all."

"I haven't taught you today's characters yet, so you should study hard."

Shen Chutang was a little surprised: "Can I, can I still learn to write with you?"

"Of course..."

Gan Huaibi was interrupted by Yu Wenshu before he finished speaking.

"No."

Yu Wenshu held a long ruler in his hand, with a stern face, looking extremely fierce. Gan Huaibi saw the ruler in his hand and shuddered subconsciously.

He glanced at Shen Chutang, who was also scared, and stretched out his arms to block her.

"I asked her to write it to me, to beat me and not to bully girls."

Yu Wenshu was amused. The brat was young, but he knew how to be a hero and save the beauty?

Yu Wenshu took out the ruler in his hand and hit Gan Huaibi on the arm.

"I want to beat you."

"You are not good at learning, but you mislead others."

"Look at what you teach, it's all wrong!"

Yu Wenshu slapped Gan Huaibi's arm twice, "I usually told you to study hard but you didn't listen, now you are misleading other students."

Facing Gan Huaibi, Yu Wenshu was ruthless like a storm, but when he looked at Tangtang, he smiled very kindly.

"I carefully read the homework written by Tangtang. Although many words are wrong, you can see that she put a lot of effort into it."

"If you are free, you don't have to come to the fire tomorrow. Go directly to the school and study with Huaibi and the others."

Shen Chutang smiled, but soon the smile faded. She shook her head, and the old cloth tied in her hair swayed slightly with her movements.

"No, I came to the fire, I can't leave without permission."

Gan Tian's eyes were instantly attracted by the swaying cloth. Her eyes followed the cloth and kept turning, looking at it in a trance.

[It's not leaving without permission. Our whole family has discussed it, and everyone agrees to let you go to school. ]

Gan Tian thought in her heart, but her eyes were sticky and looking at the cloth.

Pan Niang came over holding Gan Tian and said, "Don't worry about the fire. I've found someone who can help me. You can go to school with them."

"It's free. If you have time, just help clean up the house. I'll give you the steamed buns."

Shen Chutang waved his hands: "How can this be done? You have helped me so much. I can't study and still take your steamed buns for free."

[The little heroine is really good. At such a young age, she knows that you can't ask for other people's things for free. This quality is really rare.]

Pan Niang also felt that Shen Chutang was too sensible. When she was Shen Chutang's age, she didn't know what gratitude was, but Shen Chutang knew that you can't ask for other people's things for free.

Pan Niang smiled at Shen Chutang: "This steamed bun is not for free."

"You don't know, those boys are very noisy. Every time after class, they make the study dirty. If you want to clean it up, it will take at least half an hour. You should take this steamed bun."

Shen Chutang agreed.

She is very busy now. In the morning, she helps Pan Niang to make steamed buns, and in the afternoon, she helps Su Nanxing
