Chapter 193： Suspect

The old man looked hesitant. In fact, he really wanted to teach more students, but he had already promised to teach the children of the Tang family. Tang Baishan said during his apprenticeship that he could not teach other people, except the children of the Tang family.

Keeping one's word is the basic principle of life, and he naturally cannot lose his trust.

"Cough cough... My health is not very good, and I have to herd cows again, so I really can't find time... cough cough..."

The old man coughed awkwardly, his expression was ashamed and ashamed, as if he had done something bad. Tang Xiaonan looked funny, he was really a simple and upright old man, he did nothing wrong, why should he feel guilty.

"Grandpa, are eggs for cows?"

Tang Xiaonan took an egg and asked aloud, breaking the embarrassment. The old man breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Yes, to increase nutrition for the cows, let's go, let's feed the cows and eat eggs."

The old man brought a basket of eggs and fed them to the cows one by one. The cows who were going to work in a while were fed five eggs, and the cows who were not working were fed two eggs. The cows ploughing in the spring were the hardest and must be replenished.

The cow ate it with relish. A basket of eggs was quickly eaten up. It was the first time Tang Xiaonan saw a cow eat eggs.

Shen Yuzhu was thoughtful. She knew that the brigade had a separate nutrition fee for the cows, but it was absolutely impossible to have so much. Just now, there were twenty less eggs in a basket, two cents per egg, twenty eggs. It is the four corners. Looking at the smoothness of these butters, it can be seen that he usually eats eggs. In addition to the nutritional fee given by the brigade, Huo Jinzhi himself has also supplemented a lot.

Where did he get so much money?

Shen Yuzhu thought about the last time he met Huo Jinzhi in Wucheng. He hadn't been in the city for four years, but he went to Wucheng unexpectedly. What did he do?

She couldn't help looking around, but she didn't see Huo Jinzhi, so she asked, "Grandpa Qi, where has Jinzhi gone?"

"I'm reading at home. After a few hoops in the morning, I asked him to go home and read." The old man said with a smile.

"I really work hard, I really envy him for having you guide his studies." Shen Yuzhu said something meaningful, the old man smiled slightly, but did not talk to him.

Shen Yuzhu's expression was a little embarrassed, and there was nothing to talk about anymore, so he said goodbye and left. Seeing Su Wanrou doing laundry at the foot of the mountain, Shen Yuzhu's thoughts moved, and he stepped forward to say hello.

"Aunt Su, is Jinzhi at home?"

"Ah? Yuzhu, I would like to read a book in the house."

Su Wanrou's eyes flickered a little, she didn't dare to look at Shen Yuzhu, she had never lied in her life, but her son asked her to say so, she had to listen to his son.

Shen Yuzhu frowned slightly and glanced at the quiet room. Su Wanrou was obviously guilty, indicating that Huo Jinzhi was not at home, so why did he lie about such a trivial matter?

"It happened that I was looking for Jinzhi to ask for a few words."

Shen Yuzhu was about to go in, but Su Wanrou was even more panicked. She didn't care about wiping off the foam, so she stopped her, "I have a bad temper~ www.novelhall.com~ I can't even bother you, Yuzhu, please ask again next time."

"Then I'll ask next time."

Shen Yuzhu was sure that Huo Jinzhi was not at home, and became more curious about where he went. Moreover, she found that Su Wanrou was using new soap, and the soap was still 70% to 80% thick, indicating that it had only been used for a few days, not more than a week at most. .

In the past, Su Wanrou used grass and wood ash (many people used grass and wood ash to wash clothes in the past), or acacia locust from the mountains. The daily necessities are very economical, because they all have to be purchased with tickets. Huo Jinzhi's mother and son are outsiders, and they can't get tickets at all, old man. There are, but one person is not enough, and even three people are not enough.

"Aunt Su, my hands are dirty. Would you like to wash them at your house?" Shen Yuzhu asked with a smile.
