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

Chapter 201

The child lit the candle and Chen Dianshen washed away the bloodstains.

Then he sat down and talked.

It turned out that the doorman had gone home.

His family had long intended to take him back, but he had only come to work as a doorman because his family could no longer make ends meet. Now that his family had recovered, he still remembered Chen Dianshen's kindness and did not want to go home and be a useless person, so he refused to leave.

This time it won't work. Once Lian Li leaves, there will be more work to do at home. Chen Dianshen originally said that he doesn't need to worry about it and just needs to keep an eye on the door.

But he always felt that he was still a young and capable guy, and he refused to admit his age, and then he exhausted himself.

Now, let alone his family members, even Chen Dianshen is not confident in employing him. The old man is so old, who will be held responsible if something happens next time?

It’s better to go home and enjoy your old age.

He is alone and does not need anyone to serve him.

But there weren't many people in the Chen family to begin with, and with everyone leaving and scattering, he was the only one left.

The front door is not closed because they forgot, and the main room is wide open because they are too lazy to care.

Chen Dianshan said confidently, "This room needs to be ventilated. If it's closed, it'll have to be opened again. So, let it be. There's nothing important here, so it won't be exposed to the wind and rain."

This may sound open-minded, but it is actually nothing more than laziness.

The child was dumbfounded and had no idea that Chen Dianshen was such a person.

In the past, seeing them all looking bright and beautiful, the children thought they were all very hardworking people.

Chen Dianshan didn't care much about what she thought, and asked in a very good-tempered manner: "Have you eaten? Do you want to eat some more? There are two steamed buns in the kitchen. Go heat them up and bring them to us."

This doesn't sound right.

It doesn't seem like she's worried that the child won't eat it, but rather that he wants to eat it but is too lazy to heat it up.

No way?

and……

"Today is Lantern Festival. Didn't Eunuch Chen eat Lantern Festival dumplings?"

"I ate it at the palace. I forgot to bring some back."

It’s not hot when I bring him back.

The child finally went to the kitchen and found a small jar of vegetable oil. He cut the two steamed buns into slices and fried them.

Chen Dianshan called out from afar, "Add some seasoning and fry two eggs."

Child: “I don’t eat eggs.”

"I'll eat it. If you want to eat it, get four."

Child:……

The child was a little speechless, but she still quickly finished it and brought it over.

The steamed buns were sweet, and the fried eggs were a bit salty. Chen Dianshan was not very satisfied and sighed:

"It's far inferior to your brother Lian Li's cooking. It's not to my taste. Is the fire in the stove out?"

"...It's out." The child answered woodenly while chewing on a steamed bun.

I feel a little regretful.

Without Lianli, Eunuch Chen seemed like a completely different person.

When I saw him the next day, his clothes seemed a little wrinkled.

The child didn't ask, but Zhang Fengci asked directly.

Chen Dianshan tugged at it twice, but it was no use, so he didn't care anymore. "As for clothes, as long as they are wearable, a few wrinkles are nothing. I got up late today and didn't have time to iron them."

If he said that, it was probably because Lian Li had ironed it before.

Zhang Fengci told him to be careful, as his masters would be annoyed if they saw him.

He didn't care much about it, so let's not talk about Zhang Fengci.

There are wrinkles, so there are wrinkles, but he was too lazy to wash his clothes. After wearing them all, he secretly found Mu Tou, gave him some money, and asked Mu Tou to help wash them.

Of course I am happy to make some money from the wood. I wash it and hang it up on the same day.

When Zhang Fengci came back in the evening, he saw clothes all over the yard. Some of them looked familiar, yet strange.

It was frozen hard and when the wind blew, the icicles almost hit his face.

These days are just not going to work, are they?

Lian Li is gone, not dead. It's okay if he ruins himself, but what's the point of harming him?

Zhang Fengci broke off a piece of clothing and was about to go find Chen Dianshen to settle the score when he saw a child sneaking into the next room.

The person who had just said goodbye to him and said he was going to settle down, ran back in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Fengci knew that the child had sharp ears, so he did not go over immediately. Instead, he turned back, moved the ladder to the wall, and jumped in unexpectedly. As expected, he caught the child red-handed while he was making supper in the kitchen.

If Chen Dianshen can hire wood, he can naturally hire children as well.

He had originally thought of Uncle Li Er, but Uncle Li Er firmly believed that a good chef could not cook for two families and refused to do so no matter what.

Mu Tou’s skill was enough to fry the steamed buns into charcoal. It would have been better if he didn’t eat them, but he was afraid of being hungry, so he had no choice but to use his children to make do.

He felt that there was nothing shameful about it.

But now that Zhang Fengci has arrived, it's inevitable that people feel a little uncomfortable...

The child, Mu Tou, and Chen Dianshen all looked a little embarrassed and refused to look him in the eye.

The wood was fine. He climbed on the wall, climbed down the ladder quietly, and ran away.

The child glanced in that direction with some envy.

Zhang Fengci said gloomily, "Have you ever heard of a common saying?"

Child: “…What?”

"You can run away from a monk, but you can't run away from a temple."

What a good saying! The children who heard it suddenly stopped being envious.

Zhang Fengci was not really angry about this. He had a good relationship with Chen Dianshen. After all, they had known each other for many years and were neighbors, so they often visited each other on weekdays.

It’s no big deal to use the servants at home.

The child is quite close to him, but he can't stop him from making money.

Although I can't help but curse him for being heartless, it's no wonder he hasn't come here much in the past few days.

But I didn't take it too seriously.

What really made him angry was that all of them were doing things behind his back.

Is he some kind of inhuman person?

If something really happens, will he not help?

Chen Dianshen and the child shook their heads.

Zhang Fengci: "But then again, what is this about?

How come he is so lazy?

He's lazy, so what? Why not just buy two servants? Why do you have to steal from him? Other people's food is more delicious, other people's people are more useful, other people's children...

Zhang Fengci pointed at the child and said indignantly: "Other children are so diligent in coming to other people's homes? Why don't I see you making me a midnight snack? You little ungrateful bastard."

The child muttered, "He gave money."

"I haven't given it to you?" It would have been fine if he hadn't said it, but Zhang Fengci became even angrier when he said it.

He is not a stingy person, he just thinks that what Mr. Chen did was not fair.

They were still calling each other brothers a few days ago, but now they both have the surname Chen... and they still say they are not stingy.

The child thought about it in her heart but didn't dare to say it out loud. Besides, it was strange that when she took Eunuch Zhang's money, she felt very natural, but when she took Eunuch Chen's money, she felt that she must do a good job.

It's also a strange thing.

Is it true that too many lice won’t itch, and too many debts won’t worry?

It’s not a good idea to think like that.

The child wanted to change, so he decided to make a midnight snack for Zhang Fengci, but Li Erbo said that the child was insulting him.

It's an insult to have to do it yourself when he is the chef.

The speechless child didn't accomplish anything, but instead got a free meal, which made Zhang Fengci ask her sarcastically why she didn't go to the next door to eat.

Child:……

Is there any need to ask?

There is a chef next door, and it was Zhang Fengci who introduced him to us.

A cook, a doorman, and a handyman.

I found a human trafficker the morning before, made the deal at noon, and started working in the afternoon.

He was so angry that Chen Dianshen couldn't refuse anymore, and Mu Tou and the child naturally couldn't go anymore.

But I have to say that these three people did a good job, and Chen Dianshen's clothes became neat again.

The lost weight quickly grew back.

When spring came in March and flowers bloomed, he was like normal again, and he would get together with Zhang Fengci, Liu Dianshen and others from time to time. Perhaps because he felt too lonely after Lian Li passed away, they got together more often than before.

Children see them more often.

After all, it's spring and time to plant the crops.

She had almost learned all the acupoints, so there was nothing more for the An family to teach her. She could just practice on her own. If she had no questions, she didn't need to go there often.

So the children spent most of their free time at Zhang Fengci's house.
