Chapter 814： borrow money

The little bear sat cross-legged on the kang, peeled the peanuts and stuffed them into the mouths of the two younger brothers. The tiger head and the little lion hurriedly grabbed his hands, making him scream for a while, and Mu Yangling hurriedly pulled his hands out. , took out the peanuts in the mouths of the two children, and said, "Xiao Xiong, your brothers are still young, you can't eat this."

The tiger head and the little lion screamed, grabbed the big brother's hand and gnawed on it, and the teeth that had just grown didn't hurt too much in the hand, and the little bear screamed.

Mu Yangling could only open the mouths of the two children and carry them aside, trying to stop them from putting the peanuts into their mouths.

Little Bear turned his head to look at Xiao An who was sitting obediently beside him, and complained, "Obviously you can eat it."

"Xiao An is relatively big and can be eaten, but the tiger head and the little lion are too small to eat, they will cause diarrhea."

The two children are only over eight months old, and they had diarrhea after eating a few peanuts, but Mu Yangling dared not give them any more.

Little Bear had no choice but to turn around to help Xiaoan peel the peanut shells, stuffing them into his mouth while peeling them, and occasionally taking out a few and stuffing them into Xiaoan's mouth.

Xiao An likes to eat these tender peanuts very much. At this time, he doesn't dislike that the bear has dirty hands. As long as he gives it, he will open his mouth and wait for it to be fed.

"Is it delicious?" Little Bear stared at his cousin.

Xiao An gave him a rare nod, then turned to Mu Yangling and said, "Auntie, my father also likes to eat."

Mu Yangling didn't believe that Fan Zijin liked to eat, but he nodded and smiled: "Then aunt will ask Aunt Gu Yu to send half a basket to your family."

Xiao An nodded and sat on the kang with peace of mind and continued to wait for the little bear to feed.

This is the early peanut grown in the greenhouse. Just after the Spring Festival, the vegetables in the greenhouse were pulled out. Zhuangtou was reluctant to waste the land, so he asked Mu Yangling if he could plant a crop of wheat in it. Mu Yangling felt that Rather than growing wheat, it is better to grow selected waxy corn or peanuts.

Zhuangtou divided the greenhouse into two, and half of the variety, so it was only after three months that everyone in the fields planted peanuts, and they already had fresh ones here.

These peanuts were sent from Zhuangzi this morning. The kitchen was cleaned and salted, boiled in a pot and sent to the main room. The children happened to be there, so they ate them.

Now the peanuts are still tender and sweet, Mu Yangling is fine, but the children like it very much.

"Little Bear, mother is going to Zhuangzi tomorrow to see the crops, are you going?" Mu Yangling asked while wiping the twins' mouths.

Little Bear tilted his head and thought for a moment, then asked, "Is Dad going too?"

"Your father won't go."

"Then I'm not going either," said the little bear, "I want to play with my father and my brothers at home."

"Then you are not allowed to eat strange things for your younger brothers, and you are not allowed to take them to the water," Mu Yangling threatened him: "If you let me know that you are taking your younger brothers to dangerous places, I will detain you two. Monthly money."

Xiaoxiong opened his mouth wide, he didn't expect the punishment to be so severe, and suddenly wailed and said angrily, "How can you always deduct my money? I don't have a penny now!"

"That's also because you're naughty. If you weren't so mischievous, you wouldn't know how much money you saved."

Xiaoxiong counted the money in his treasury with his fingers, and found that he really couldn't deduct any more, but he agreed to Dahei and the others to help them buy books. The school that Brother Xiaobao donated in the capital had just started, and he needed money. Now, this is not the time to be capricious.

Little Bear sighed sadly, feeling that life was too difficult. He picked up a peanut, squeezed open the shell, and stuffed the peanut into his mouth, so that he could soothe his wounded heart.

The next day was Qi Haoran's day off. He and Fan Zijin made an appointment to go fishing. Since Mu Yangling was going to the farm, Qi Haoran took the three children with him, and Fan Zijin naturally took Xiao An.

It is naturally impossible for the two big men to serve the four children. They are all handed over to the servants. They just need to sit by the river and fish.

Little Bear left his three younger brothers, ran to the water and glanced at it, and asked, "Dad, can I sell the fish I caught?"

Fan Zijin turned his head and asked Qi Haoran, "How on earth did you raise your son? It seems that he is short of money all the time. This kid even tempted Xiao An to take out his New Year's money for him a few days ago."

"Son, tell your uncle why you are short of money."

Xiaoxiong straightened his chest and said, "Our three schools will add a total of 104 books, which will cost a lot, and Brother Xiaobao's newly opened school in Beijing. The pin is bigger."

Xiaoxiong stared at Fan Zijin, "Uncle, are you interested in investing in the school?"

Fan Zijin asked disinterestedly: "Is it your Baoxiong Academy? Can I make a profit from investing in you? You don't stop repairing, and all the money you put in is wasted. I'm a businessman, and I don't do business at a loss. "

"It won't make a loss. Da Hei has decided to learn woodworking. After two years, he will be a teacher. If Uncle needs to do woodwork, just call him, and Dazhu, he wants to learn accounting, uncle has so many Zhuangzi, It will definitely take a lot of accounting, and he can also help for a while for free, so you can save a lot of money..."

Fan Zijin looked at Xiaoxiong seriously now, seeing him straighten his chest and staring at him, Fan Zijin felt soft for a moment, just as he was about to agree to him, he heard Qi Haoran on the side beat him: "You Uncle Fan will do less carpentry. With the accountant? You go to the shop to see if you work at your Uncle Fan, who didn't sign the contract of sale? Those of your friends can also go to the shop outside to find work, otherwise you will stay It is difficult for someone like Uncle Fan to use them because of their qualifications!"

With an identity like   Fan Zijin, his confidant is either a strategist or a servant who signed a death deed, otherwise how could he dare to use it with confidence?

Fan Zijin was still worried about hitting Xiaoxiong, and was about to comfort him when he saw him rubbing his chin thoughtfully and said, "That makes sense, then can we do it alone? Open a shop by ourselves, some of us can do carpentry, some of us can weave. , there will also be plans..."

"Are you rich?" Qi Haoran turned his head and asked.

Xiaoxiong just looked at his father, trying to make his eyes look pitiful, but unfortunately Qi Haoran has already been immune. For more than a year, he and his son have been fighting wits and courage, and one of them is trying hard to get money from his pocket. , It is difficult for a person who is trying hard to keep his property without immunity.

Seeing that Xiaoxiong couldn't impress Qi Haoran, he could only slump his shoulders and borrow it from Qi Haoran. Then Qi Haoran smiled and motioned Feibai to get the account book. Fan Zijin was stunned and opened the account book, saying, "You already owe your father three. Eighteen taels of silver, how much are you going to borrow this time?"

Xiaoxiong hesitated for a long time and said, "I have to go back and discuss with Zhuzi and the others, and I will tell you later."

"Okay, Dad is waiting for you." Qi Haoran asked Fei Bai to put away the ledger, and said to his son with a smile: "Okay, let's go play, don't think about fishing and selling money, let's not say whether you can catch it or not. , even if you catch it, a fish is only about 20 cents, what can it be worth?"
