Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

After dinner, Pei Xiaohai was so sleepy that she just wanted to tidy up and go to sleep, but Changsui followed her like a tail, with his butt sticking out. Pei Xiaohai asked him what he was doing.

Chang Sui complained: "You don't keep your word! You said you would help me, why didn't you go?"

Speaking of this, Pei Xiaohai was no longer sleepy. He pulled him into the house and threw him away.

Changsui turned around twice in a daze before he could stand still.

Pei Xiaohai closed the door and angrily said, "How dare you say that? Where in your academy is there any place to get in? The doors are all closed. We walked around several times and only saw a hole in the wall, not even as big as a head."

Longevity: ...

"You guys went there, so, that robber was you? Or Wai Ya?"

"What robber?"

"There was a little girl who said she was selling chestnuts and persimmons, but she cheated He Ze and the others out of their money and ran away. Zhou Xuebin was beaten for that, and He Ze and the others were punished by the teacher to copy books for beating him up. Now Zhou Xuebin is the most annoying person in the school, and no one comes to cheat me out of my money anymore."

Selling chestnuts and persimmons? Sounds familiar.

"You mean it was me?"

Pei Xiaohai didn't feel that he was lying.

Chang Sui: "How would I know? I heard she has an accomplice."

Both the brother and sister were stuck there thinking.

So when Shuanzi came back, he saw the two uninvited guests standing in his room.

He opened his eyes, his surprise barely noticeable, and pulled out a blue cloth purse from his pocket, pouring out a few copper coins and saying:

"The firewood wasn't very dry, so they wouldn't give more. They sold it for five or six cents a bundle."

“…Eleven cents!”

Pei Xiaohai could still count five plus six. She came to her senses in an instant and ran after the money.

Shuanzi meant that the money was not much, but it was free, so Pei Xiaohai would not think it was too little.

He also gave Shuanzi a penny and said, "I have another bundle tomorrow morning. I need you to help me carry it to the town to sell it."

Shuanzi didn't answer and looked at Changsui. Pei Xiaohai also looked at him in confusion.

"She gave it to you, so you just take it. Why are you looking at me? When have you ever listened to me at home?"

Changsui felt scared when he saw her and kept mumbling to himself.

How could he dare to stop her? His sister was so desperate for money that she was just talking nonsense and even cheating children out of their money. What if she got angry and sold him out?

Shuanzi then took the copper coin and said, "I understand, Miss."

Little Pei nodded in satisfaction, then... turned his head away.

"Is there no one causing trouble for you in your academy now?"

"Uh... not this afternoon."

Changsui didn't understand why she suddenly asked this.

Pei Xiaohai stretched out his hand and explained his doubts: "Give me the money, no one will bother you, and no one will cheat you of your money. Give me the money."

Chang Sui: "Why? You didn't even help me beat anyone up."

It makes sense.

Pei Xiaohai blinked and retorted, "That's because I can't get in. Besides, hitting people is wrong."

Chang Sui was dumbfounded: "Then why did you punch me this morning?"

"For money, give me money." Pei Xiaohai stretched out his hand stubbornly, almost poking him.

Chang Sui was almost crying from anger: "You can't force me to do this. Can you be reasonable?"

"I've already told you," Pei Xiaohai said, feeling a bit like he was stupid, counting on his fingers. "Why don't you understand? I agreed to help you because someone was looking for trouble with you and wanted to cheat you out of your money, so you couldn't give me the money. Now that they don't want to, your money is useless, right? Why don't you give it to me?"

"Sister, is there any useless money in this world?" Chang Sui tried hard to hold back his tears.

Little Pei tentatively replied, "Paper money?"

That thing was unlucky and could not even be used for burning in a fire. It was of no use to the living, and she was not sure whether it was useful to the dead. Anyway, Cheng Tianbao preferred incense and candles.

Longevity: ...

"Is this what I'm asking?"

"Yeah." Little Pei really didn't understand why he was crying. Why did he fall to the ground while talking peacefully?

"Why are you lying down?"

Chang Sui cried and said, "I want to sit down, but my butt hurts and I can't sit down."

"Why are you sitting down?"

Chang Sui cried so hard that she could hardly breathe: "Sister, I don't know why, the more I talk to you, the less energy I have."

"You must be too sleepy, or you're crying," Pei Xiaohai said with concern, "Stop crying, give me the money, and go back to sleep. You'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

"Sister, I am asleep, not dead."

When he woke up and looked at his empty wallet, would he feel better?

Pei Xiaohai: "I didn't ask you to die? I just want money.

Come to think of it... I did this for you. I don't know why, but once I went there, they started to hate others going there."

Chang Sui felt dizzy and his chest was tight: "Sister, they hate that person. He is the best person to me in the school."

"Oh, is that so... then it's none of my business. Where is your money?"

Money, money, money, is all she cares about?

Chang Sui took her back to the house half dead, handed her the money, and waved his hand tiredly: "It's all here, it's for you, you can go."

Little Pei happily took it and said, "Then tomorrow's..."

"Sister, a gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way."

"speak English."

"If you do this again, I'll tell my parents."

"Okay, cheapskate!"

Pei Xiaohai left, leaving only Changsui, who was hurt and felt like he was struck by lightning.

Baifu was eating snacks when he came back from Peizhu and saw him huddled up in a ball, mumbling something...

"Stingy? How dare she? What about me? Am I a stingy person? Is there any justice in this world? Perhaps I should file a lawsuit and bring her to court, cutting her with a knife, and then cutting her again..."

He spoke and gestured, raising his hands high and bringing them down heavily, again and again, and no one knew how many times he wanted to chop.

Baifu shook his head and climbed onto the bed. "What's this about? I've only been to a few operas, how could it make me sick?" "Could he be in town again and see something interesting?"

Baifu was a little angry with him. They used to do everything together, but now he goes to town every day and doesn't even bother to talk to her when he comes back.

"What a stingy guy!" Baifu said unhappily, "Stop nagging me! If you keep nagging me, I'll beat you up!"

"What stingy guy? Do you know what I'm talking about?"

Baifu: "I don't care what you say. If you keep arguing, I'll tell my parents!"

Chang Sui: "What are you telling your parents about?"

"I'll tell them you bullied me!" Baifu said with a roll of his eyes.

Chang Sui: "That's not true. Why wouldn't my parents believe you?"

"Do they believe you or me? I've never lied to my parents," Baifu shook his head proudly. "Don't make a fuss, or I'll tell my parents that you hit me."

Changsui: Scoundrel...either a robber or a scoundrel. Am I the only gentleman in this family?
