I didn't expect Zhiruo to come back so late today. Lanxin was busy in front of the tofu stall. She looked for a long time but didn't see Zhiruo coming back. She couldn't help but feel suspicious.
If the tofu stall hadn't been so busy today, Lan Xin would have wanted to go to Xiaopang's house next door to ask why Zhiruo came back so late today.
Only after Zhiruo had learned everything Liu Hu had arranged did he let Zhiruo leave.
"Uncle, you are so strict." Zhiruo said to Liu Hu with a grin.
No matter how strict Liu Hu was, Zhiruo was not afraid of him at all, so she found it very easy to learn.
On the contrary, Liu Hu would think carefully before speaking every time, wondering whether Zhiruo would be suspicious if he said that, and whether it would hurt his young heart.
However, when I really tried to teach Zhiruo, she would often make me so angry that I couldn't control myself.
"Go back soon and don't make your mother wait anxiously." Liu Hu covered his chest and looked at Zhiruo with lifeless eyes.
At this time, Liu Hu had long lost his previous spirited look and his face was filled with death.
Zhiruo agreed, took her books, jumped off the carriage, and ran home.
After Zhiruo disappeared completely, Luo Fanchen and A Si came over. A Si looked at Liu Hu's appearance and couldn't help but said, "Boss, is it really so tiring to teach people?"
"Nonsense, if you don't believe me, try it?" Liu Hu might still be nice to Zhiruo, but he would not be nice to Asi.
Hearing Liu Hu's words, Ah Si grinned and continued, "Boss, the last time I saw you like this was when we attacked Beidi. It seems that teaching people to read is really a physical job."
Liu Hu rolled his eyes and ignored Ah Si. Instead, he said to Luo Fanchen, "Go home."
Luo Fanchen agreed, drove the carriage and took Liu Hu back home.
----------------------------------------
Zhiruo ran back happily holding the book. Seeing that her mother was busy, she quickly ran to Lanxin, put the book aside, and went to help her mother.
"You go back and review your lessons well. I'll be alone here." Lan Xin pushed Zhiruo to the back and continued to busy herself cutting tofu for others.
Zhiruo also knew her mother's character. If she were still here, her mother would definitely be furious. She had no choice but to take the book to the big rock behind the tofu stall and read the knowledge in the book.
In the past, she couldn't concentrate on reading at all because she had fallen behind in many subjects compared to other children. But now, she can understand a lot of things.
I didn't expect that I could learn so much from Liu Hu's only one day of class.
Thinking about how Liu Hu taught her, Zhiruo naively thought that it would be great if her uncle could be her father, so that Ergou next to her would not scold her.
Moreover, judging from the look of my uncle, he shouldn't be short of money. If he really became my father, my mother wouldn't be so tired.
Zhiruo was only four or five years old and did not think like an adult. She only knew that her uncle was genuinely kind to her and that her mother did not dislike her uncle.
Thinking of this, Zhiruo rubbed against her mother's side and whispered : "Mom, are you tired? Can Zhiruo help you wipe the sweat off?"
Having such an obedient daughter, Lan Xin was very happy from the bottom of her heart. She touched Zhiruo's chubby face and said, "Mom is not tired. If you study hard, Mom will be happier than anything else."
Zhiruo was a little hesitant. Looking at her mother's expression, she didn't know whether she should tell her about her uncle.
After hesitating for a while, Zhiruo decided to observe Liu Hu carefully to see whether this uncle was worthy of her mother's lifelong trust and whether he was worthy of being her stepfather.
No matter what, Liu Hu has to overcome this hurdle.
But as of now, Zhiruo is still very satisfied with Liu Hu in all aspects.
"Oh, business is good." A sudden voice slowly sounded from the front of the tofu stall, scaring Zhiruo so much that she stepped back repeatedly.
This voice is so familiar, so familiar that just by hearing this voice, I know who this person is.
Ever since Liu Hu asked Asi to take care of Lan Xin's business, Lan Xin has no worries about selling tofu, so Lan Xin can also afford Zhiruo's tuition.
Hearing this voice now, Zhiruo frowned. She just wanted to live a peaceful life here, and when she grew up, she would seek revenge on her enemies.
However, things did not go as planned. Even though I had already hidden here, they still wanted to cause trouble for me.
Su Er looked at the crowd in front of Lan Xin's tofu stall and pushed them away without saying anything. He shouted to the people around him, "Go away, go away. What's wrong with you never having eaten tofu?"
"Did Su Xing ask you to come?" Lan Xin was very angry when she saw Su Er deliberately chasing away the guests, but she didn't dare to say a word.
Su Er finally squeezed to the front of the tofu stall, wondering why all the people who came to buy tofu today were so tall and strong. It was really strange.
"My master didn't ask me to come here. I volunteered to come here." Su Er looked at Lan Xin very proudly and said complacently.
Ever since he knew that his master had had an affair with Lan Xin, he began to try every means to find Lan Xin's whereabouts and wanted to show himself well. In the past few days, he finally found Lan Xin's whereabouts.
Only then did he bring people here to cause trouble for Lan Xin.
"What exactly do you want?" Since Su Xing didn't send anyone here, Lan Xin was even more at a loss.
At least, Su Xing is still reasonable. Many of his evil ways are kept under the table so that no one can discover them.
But the people under him are not so clean. They do things without considering the consequences, and it will be difficult to end the matter.
Su Er looked at Lan Xin and said maliciously, "Fellow villagers, I, Su Er, am hosting today. No one needs to buy tofu. Our Su family will give you two pieces of tofu for free in the city. First come, first served, while supplies last."
After saying this, Su Er looked at Lan Xin complacently. This was a method he had been thinking of all along. People in the mountains love to take advantage of others. As long as he said it was free, they would definitely not buy Lan Xin's tofu.
Although he lost a few pieces of money for tofu, he was able to make Lan Xin gain nothing. Su Erguang felt that he was a genius when he thought about it.
But what he didn't expect was that after he finished speaking, none of the people around him moved. Instead, they looked at Su Er with a sneer on their faces, as if they were looking at a big idiot.
Su Er thought that the people around him didn't hear it, so he repeated it again: "Didn't you hear it? The Su family in the city is giving away tofu for free, first come first served, why don't you go!"
The people around him seemed not to hear anything and just watched Su Er perform quietly. Su Er suddenly felt like a monkey on the stage, being watched by everyone, and he became furious.
