Fast forward to two and a half years old: The villain boss is obsessed with raising cubs

"What's the matter? My father beat me, but my mother didn't beat me."

Bao'er put her hands on her hips and was a little out of breath.

The little boy is quite fat and can't breathe even after running a few times.

Grandma Gu is the holder of the highest say in the Gu family next door. In addition, the Gu family only has one child, Bao'er, so Grandma Gu usually loves Bao'er very much.

Thinking of how Grandma Gu always calls Bao'er her "darling", Miaomiao suddenly realizes.

"Stop talking about this, where are the spicy strips? I have a penny today, give me one."

Baoer gave the copper coins to Miaomiao, and Miaomiao gave him the spicy strips.

As soon as he took the spicy strips, Baoer couldn't wait to eat them.

For modern people like Lin Miaoru, the taste of spicy strips is not particularly spicy, but people in this dynasty have not started to use chili to enhance the taste. A group of people who have never eaten spicy food suddenly eat spicy food, more or less It's a bit exciting.

No, Bao'er's face turned into a monkey's butt in just two strokes.

"Bao'er, your face is so red."

Although it was not the first time, Miaomiao couldn't help but be amazed when she saw it.

Miaomiao has never seen anyone with a redder face than Bao'er.

But even so, Bao'er didn't slow down in eating spicy strips.

This is called the spicier the merrier.

The two children, one eating and the other watching, were in perfect harmony.

"Dad, Mom, are you back?"

Seeing Qian Xianglian and Lin Changgui from a distance, Lin Miaoru waved.

Neither husband nor wife looked very good, but they still smiled at their daughter and asked, "Ru'er, Miaomiao, how was the store today?"

Lin Miaoru: "Not bad."

"That's good. You can go and play. Your mother and I will just watch in the store."

Lin Miaoru looked worried at the obviously ugly faces of the couple.

"Mom and dad, what's wrong with you?"

Why do you look so depressed?

Could it be that something bad happened when I returned to the countryside today?

When Lin Miaoru asked this question, Lin Changgui suddenly remembered what his parents said today, and his expression suddenly dropped.

Lin Miaoru understood clearly.

It seemed that something really happened between the two of them.

Lin Changgui didn't want to talk about these unpleasant things to his daughters, so he waved his hand and said, "It's nothing."

Lin Miaoru frowned.

It’s not good to not talk things out and resolve them.

"Dad, I'm not young anymore. I know more or less everything about the family. You and your mother should have met your grandparents when you went back this time. Did you have any trouble with them?"

Being impressed by his daughter's words, Lin Changgui felt both proud and sad.

If she hadn't been so cowardly in front of her parents and not valued by her parents, Ru'er wouldn't have guessed it right.

Now that the elder one has guessed it, the couple feels there is no need to hide it, but there is no need for the little silly kid next to him to discuss with his friends whether the spicy strips are better eaten divided or alone. .

Qian Xianglian bent down and took two copper coins for the little guy, and coaxed the little guy:

"Miaomiao, you and Bao'er go out to play."

When she saw the pocket money, Miaomiao's eyes lit up, and she caught the coin with enthusiasm. Without saying a word, she happily went out to play with Bao'er.

Living in Tianshui Lane these days, the couple knows that the people here are simple and honest, so they are not worried about their children playing outside.

After watching Miaomiao go out, Qian Xianglian let out a long sigh and sat helplessly on the chair at the counter.

"When I go back this time, your grandparents will know that our family has a grocery store."

"so?"

"As soon as your father and I went back, we were blocked by your grandparents and uncles. They wanted your father to sell the grocery store and give them the money."

Lin Miaoru thought it was ridiculous, "Aren't we all separated? Why do grandparents come to ask you for money?"

You know, when Lin Changgui's family split up, they didn't take advantage of anything. They worked as cattle and horses for the Lin family for so many years. They did all the dirty work as a family, and the money they earned definitely accounted for most of the Lin family's property. But in the end, they actually Only one acre of medium-grade farmland and three acres of low-grade farmland were allocated, and not a single pot or pan was given, and Lin Changgui was not given a penny. The clan leader who was allocated the house later felt that the Lin Zhao family was too partial, and the clan allocated it to Lin Changgui, which had nothing to do with the Lin family.

It can be said that Lin Changgui's family has almost left home.

Under such circumstances, how could Lin Zhao and the others have the nerve to come over and ask Lin Changgui for money?

Lin Miaoru was puzzled.

"Hmph," Qian Xianglian tugged at the corners of her lips and snorted, "You still don't know what the personalities of your grandparents are."

As long as you don't take advantage, you feel like you're at a loss.

"But why is it so sudden? Didn't my grandparents say nothing last time I went back?"

Why are you thinking about asking for money this time?

"I didn't say anything last time. On the one hand, the grocery store hasn't opened yet, and on the other hand, your third uncle hasn't had any problems yet."

"Third uncle?"

Lin Miaoru felt something bad in her heart.

Could it be that Lin Changchang did something again?

"It's what you think," Qian Xianglian confirmed Lin Miaoru's guess. "After your third uncle was kicked out by your grandma that day, he was in a bad mood, so he took Li Yao to the gambling house to relax, and finally paid the premium for failing the imperial examination. I have lost everything, and now the imperial examination is about to start, and your third uncle cannot raise the money, so he can only run back to find your grandma in despair."

The imperial examination requires a guarantor, and it costs a lot of money to hire a guarantor. The price is different in each place. In their county, it costs at least three taels.

Lin Changchang has now lost all his money and cannot leave the market without the premium.

No matter how harshly Mrs. Lin Zhao scolded Lin Changchang at the beginning, Lin Changchang was Lin Zhao's favorite son after all. When Lin Changchang came back and cried a few times, Mrs. Lin Zhao couldn't bear to let him go.

As soon as I heard that Lin Changgui seemed to have opened a store in the county, I immediately ran over to Lin Changgui to ask for money.

"Your grandma also suspected that your father was hiding private money and said that he should hand it over."

"Then how did you and dad get back together?"

Lin Miaoru was curious.

"What else can I do? I just said that we didn't hide any private money, and we can't hide so much private money. This money is usury money. If she wants us to sell the store, she will help us pay back the usury money first." .”

"Then grandma will definitely not be happy." Lin Miaoru could guess Lin Zhao's reaction without Qian Xianglian saying anything.

Qian Xianglian tapped Lin Miaoru's nose, remembering how the old lady hurriedly broke away from her family, and couldn't help but smile: "Indeed, your grandparents can run faster than rabbits."

Lin Zhao and the others didn't know that Miaomiao and the others had picked up Ganoderma lucidum. They knew that Lin Changgui was an ordinary farmer. Even if he had saved some private money, it was definitely not enough to open a shop.

Therefore, Qian Xianglian's statement about borrowing loan sharks still has high credibility with them.

That's usurious money, and most people avoid it. Anyone who touches it will eventually end up with their entire family ruined.

Using this method, Lin Changgui and Qian Xianglian scared the whole family away.

But this is not a long-term solution after all. As long as Lin Changgui and his family are safe and sound and are not being chased for debts, over time, Lin Zhao and the others will be able to sense that something is wrong.
