Chapter 486: Blaming Grandmother Again! (15)
"You really don't mind?"
Zhao Bingzhao looked at Old Man Xu with a smile, "Fubao was the main contributor to the discovery of this gold mine. Don't you want a share?"
"In no mood!"
Mr. Xu gave his answer calmly.
A gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way.
This gold mine was clearly different from the one in Lingshui Village. The existence of this gold mine had already been known to others before them. As for why they hadn't mined it, Old Master Xu didn't bother to think about it. These things would eventually come to light anyway.
The other party discovered the gold mine, but did not mine it, but stayed here. God knows what they are planning. Based on the principle of less trouble is better than more, Mr. Xu did not want to get involved at all.
"Afraid of trouble?"
As expected of an old vixen, Zhao Bingzhao saw through Mr. Xu's thoughts after just a few glances.
Mr. Xu nodded and said, "Yes, I'm just afraid of trouble!"
Having his thoughts seen through, Mr. Xu turned out to be quite honest.
In fact, if it were someone else, Mr. Xu would never be so honest, but facing his uncle Zhao Bingzhao, Mr. Xu knew very well that it was meaningless to defend himself.
So, just tell the truth.
"fine!"
Zhao Bingzhao smiled when he saw Mr. Xu respond so sincerely.
"Okay, that's it."
Zhao Bingzhao didn't say anything else, but ended the topic there.
…
After a banquet, the Xu family left the Zhao Mansion.
By this time, the sun had already set, and a faint crescent moon had appeared in the sky. Although it was quite cold, the weather was not bad at all. At least there was not a single cloud in the sky.
Fubao still rode in a carriage with his mother, Old Mrs. Xu, and wrapped himself tightly in a quilt.
Without the warmth of the sun, the temperature dropped very quickly.
The group returned to Lingshui Village at top speed. The road was quiet, with only the sound of the wind, the clatter of horses' hooves, and the creaking of wheels.
Because the carriage was moving at a trot, the people inside had to endure the inevitable bumps, which made Fubao, who was feeling a little sleepy, unable to fall asleep at all.
When they finally got home, Fubao felt like his butt was about to be broken into pieces.
"Mom, please go down first!"
The carriage stopped. Fubao, who had been shaken all the way, was really exhausted and looked a little listless.
Seeing Fubao like this, Old Lady Xu couldn't help but smile. She reached out and touched her head, saying, "Did you fall?"
“Yeah!”
Fubao didn't expect that the carriage would be so bumpy when running.
"Come on, let me carry you down!"
"Thank you, mother!"
Fubao decisively threw himself into his mother's arms.
As expected, a child with a mother is a treasure, how great!
When Fubao was carried down from the carriage by his mother, he saw two other carriages parked in front of his house.
And her father was talking to someone.
If Fubao hadn't been so shaken by the carriage that she doubted her life, she would have definitely rushed over to watch the fun. But unfortunately, she wasn't interested in anything right now.
Although this carriage was custom-made, it lacked a spring design for shock absorption, making the ride far less comfortable. Unfortunately, although Fu Bao had a rough idea of how to reduce shock, as a liberal arts graduate who couldn't even remember the precise proportions of gunpowder, he was destined to be a giant in thought but a dwarf in action.
After returning to his room, Fubao simply washed up and crawled into the warm bed. He fell asleep soon after.
When I woke up from this sleep, it was already noon the next day.
After a good sleep, Fubao finally revived in full health.
…
"Dad, Mom!"
After washing up, Fubao rushed to his parents' room.
As a result, no one.
"Where are the people?"
Fubao blinked.
"Miss, the master and mistress are out visiting."
"The eldest, second, and third uncles have all gone to visit relatives!"
Lichun reported the situation at home to Fubao in a timely manner.
Fu Bao was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and he said, "Does that mean I'm the only one left in this family now?"
"yes!"
Lichun nodded and continued, "Before she left, Madam said that if it's not fun for Miss to stay at home alone, she can go out and play!"
"Going out to play?"
Fubao sighed. There was nothing fun to do today even if he went out.
The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when married women return to their parents’ home.
On this day, most married women will return to their parents' home to pay New Year's greetings.
In other words, today is the busiest day of the first lunar month.
When I go back to my parents' home, I naturally have to bring my children with me.
Therefore, in Lingshui Village today, the little kids who are familiar with Fubao are basically not at home, but have gone to their grandparents’ house with their parents.
"Forget it, let's just stay at home!"
As an adult, Fubao only plays with the children in the village to maintain her image as a little kid, but in essence, she feels that she is a mature adult.
"Miss, you're not going out?"
"Going out isn't fun!"
Fubao walked towards his yard dejectedly.
"Miss, how about we have a barbecue?"
Lichun proposed again.
Fubao shook her head decisively. What a joke, barbecue? She had always been the one eating. Could it be that just because no one was playing with her, she had to do it herself?
She had made up her mind a long time ago to be a parasite for the rest of her life.
Fubao returned to the house and looked at Lichun and Xiachu, who were as bored as he was, and suddenly had an idea.
There are three of us, so let’s play Landlord!
I don’t have any playing cards at home, but I can make them myself.
So, under Fubao's command, Lichun and Xiachu got busy, found the best paper in their home, and cut it into rectangular pieces.
Write numbers and draw simple patterns on pieces of paper, and you have a deck of playing cards.
As for the rules, they are very simple.
Fubao just gave a brief explanation, and Lichun and Xiachu understood how to play.
Based on the principle that gambling is wrong, the rule set by Fubao, Lichun and Xiachu is to post notes.
Fu Bao, who was the soul of an adult, and with the bonus of good luck, was completely crushing Li Chun and Xia Chu. However, in order to prevent the two from losing interest due to being crushed, Fu Bao sometimes led Li Chun to defeat Xia Chu, and sometimes led Xia Chu to defeat Li Chun.
Of course, no matter what happens, Fubao is bound to win.
When Old Mrs. Xu came back, she was even shocked to see Lichun and Xiachu with Fubao, because their faces were covered with notes.
"What's this for?"
Old Mrs. Xu looked at Fubao curiously.
Fubao hurriedly said, "Mom, you're back! Come, come, this is a little game I learned from the things my grandmother left behind. Three people can play it. Come on, play too!"
Once again, Fubao successfully shifted the blame to his grandmother!
