Chapter 151: Easy and Inconspicuous
So let Cai follow housekeeper Shi to catch and select the fish fry.
While selecting the fish fry, Shi Maner treated Xiao Yuanbao and the others to food and drinks.
Xiao Yuanbao asked Shi Maner why she started building so many buildings right after the Chinese New Year.
Shi Maner replied, "I heard rumors that there have been a lot of robberies recently. The homes of many landlords have been raided by robbers and bandits. I have to be on guard!"
She was the only daughter left in the Shi family, without even a single son.
From the outside, it looks like a big piece of fat meat.
If there really were a robber, she would probably be the first to suffer.
After hearing this, Xiao Yuanbao was stunned.
"Where did you hear this news?"
Sanbao all thought that the groundbreaking was instructed by an expert and was about doing something related to Feng Shui.
I didn't expect it was just to protect against robbers and thieves.
No wonder the gate is built like a bunker.
Shi Maner lowered her voice and said, "Can't I see ghosts? I heard what the ghost said..."
This was far beyond Xiao Yuanbao's expectations.
Sanbao widened his eyes and said, "Ghosts usually don't lie to us, so we should be careful about this."
I have caught ghosts with my sister several times, and found that most ghosts have simpler minds than humans.
Shi Maner believed it very much. "So, I invited craftsmen to come here to strengthen the protection. I also recruited a lot of young and strong guards. I even dug underground escape passages. I just told you about this. I didn't tell anyone else. If I told anyone, I would be afraid that people would think I was crazy. Anyway, you should be careful when you go home. Your Tangjia Village is not far from here..."
Sanbao said, "Okay! Sister Man'er, be careful."
Because Shi Maner was a single person and a female landlord, she was indeed the most vulnerable to thieves.
On the contrary, Tangjia Village is a big and poor village, so robbers generally don't patronize it.
Little Yuanbao's little hands and mouth were full of food, and he was eating happily.
He didn't take the robbers seriously at all.
Shi Maner added, "By the way, if you go to Mr. Liu's house next door, you can tell him to fix the gate and stuff. His family is also rich, be careful of robbers who can't steal from me, and if they try to steal from him, it will seem like I'm harming him. If I go, they will definitely not believe me. As for Xiao Yuanbao, even if he farts, he will smell good."
Three Treasures...
Sister Maner, this means there is no one in this world that she cares about anymore!
She is carefree and unrestrained, which has nothing to do with the image of a 17 or 18-year-old girl.
After eating and drinking his fill, Little Yuanbao went to the home of Mr. Liu next door to see Liu Chenjin.
Liu Chenjin fell asleep in her wet nurse's arms.
It looks normal, eats well and is growing well.
Xiao Yuanbao didn't wake him up. This is how little babies should behave: sleep when they are full and eat when they are full. This way they grow fast.
Mr. Liu was very enthusiastic and gave Xiao Yuanbao a big red envelope.
"I prepared this New Year's money for you. You didn't come during the New Year. Now that the New Year is over, it's not too late to give it to you..."
When you open it, it's full of small gold leaves.
More than ten.
Golden and brilliant.
"Are you really giving it to me? My mother won't let me accept it. It's so beautiful..." Little Yuanbao pretended to refuse it, and Mr. Liu put it in her pocket.
Xiao Yuanbao no longer refused and accepted it happily.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu! If anything happens to the little ugly kid, just come to our nest. We can handle him!"
Mr. Liu suddenly felt at ease.
Isn't this what you've been waiting for?
"Okay, thank you, our little master."
Sanbao felt that he was a little redundant. He was also a child, only two years older than his sister. Where was his New Year's gift money?
His sister had a big bag of gold leaves, but he had none.
He decided to make himself feel more presentable, and coughed softly, "Mr. Liu, things have been a bit unsettled lately, and there may be robbers. You see, Sister Man'er's house next door is undergoing a major construction project, right? If you have a lot of wealth at home, you'd better be on guard, because it's better to be prepared for the worst."
Mr. Liu paused and looked at Xiao Yuanbao, "Did the young master figure it out? Or did he hear it from somewhere?"
Little Yuanbao nodded, "It's always better to be prepared."
Now, Mr. Liu became cautious.
Started to feel anxious.
"So this is the reason why Man'er's family is building so much. I thought she... now, I don't know if it's too late."
Sanbao gave him an idea, "If your family doesn't have much wealth, you can discuss with Sister Man'er and dig an invisible tunnel to go to Sister Man'er's house. If something really happens, you can hide there. It's convenient and won't attract attention."
Mr. Liu thinks this is a good idea.
"No, no, no, we don't have anything valuable at home. I'll prepare in advance. If that day ever comes, I can just pick up the gold and run away."
His greatest treasure is his beloved son.
Sanbao gave Liu Yuanwai a good idea. Liu Yuanwai took out a small red envelope from his pocket and said, "Here, here is your New Year's money. You are indeed a young hero, smart and capable. In the future, you will definitely be a great talent."
There are quite a few gold leaves inside.
Although it was not as much as his sister, Sanbao was also satisfied.
Keep the New Year's money that you have earned through your own hard work.
After a while, Cai decided to select the fish fry, and Shi sent servants to bring them several large wooden barrels of fish fry.
Everyone returned with a full load.
The fish fry were delivered to Xiao Yuanbao's home and put directly into the pond in the backyard.
The pond was large, covering an area of more than one acre. After several large buckets of fish fry were thrown into the pond, they soon swam away and disappeared.
The little white-haired boy was naughty. When the last bucket of fish was not put into the pond, he picked up a palm-sized fish and ran away.
The Cai family couldn't catch up.
"You little bastard, you are such a sinner! It will be too late to eat it when you grow up!"
Little Yuanbao lay on the edge of the pond, staring with wide eyes at the fish swimming into the pond, looking very happy.
Cai and Sanbao planned the area around the pond, planted some fish grass and fed the fish. The fish would grow faster after eating the grass.
Little Yuanbao clapped his hands happily, "Baby, come and feed the fish every day. Grow up quickly and give them to me. I love fish..."
"Okay, Mom will cook fish for Yuanbao every day!"
In the evening, Dabao and Erbao came back from the village school.
Sanbao immediately took out his gold leaf to show off to his two brothers, "Big brother, second brother, look, what is this? Are you jealous? It doesn't belong to you two, only me and my sister..."
Dabao and Erbao looked at it calmly.
After asking, the two found out that it was given by Mr. Liu who went to his house.
Then, Erbao said, "Sister Man'er, did you really hear from the ghost that there were robbers nearby? Which ghost is it? What kind of ghost?"
"I don't know. We didn't ask in detail. As for what kind of ghosts? They must be perverts! Sister Man'er is a ghost bride. Her current ghost husband is gone. She is a ghost widow. Second brother, haven't you heard that there are many troubles around widows? Those who go to see her are all perverts who covet her beauty..."
Erbao hasn't responded yet.
Dabao started first, hitting him on the head with a big chestnut, "You keep talking nonsense all day long, learn something good! Be careful not to corrupt your sister."
