Raising the Demon

Chapter 16 A Mess of Emotional Debt

"If you do this, you won't be that kind of dog official..." Yan Wu said in a low voice, simple parents always hope that their son will be upright.

"A dog official is a dog official." Zi Baifeng snorted. If he can make his parents live happily and let himself live freely, he has fulfilled more than half of his wishes. If he can make the villagers live happily, then then Even better, if it doesn't work, then there's nothing you can do about it.As for the others, he is not a saint, and he cannot control the world.

"Brother, you are a dog official!" Xiao Shitou laughed loudly. These days, he really enjoyed the happiness of being arrogant and cute in front of Zi Baifeng. Before, he didn't dare to breathe in front of Zi Baifeng.

"Is it so funny that I'm a dog official?" Zi Baifeng glared at Xiao Shitou, "You bitch!"

The two fought together again.

Seeing Zi Baifeng and Xiao Shitou laughing together, Yan Wu still frowned, and said to Zi Jian in a low voice: "Brother, you have some reason for not paying taxes, but Xiao Shitou and I don't pay taxes. The name is not right and the words are not right..."

Who knew that Zi Baifeng's ears are better than a dog's now, he turned his face when he heard the words, and said: "Auntie, if you feel that the name is not right, why don't you marry my father?"

This question was really shocking, Yan Wu suddenly became angry, stretched out his hand and twisted Zi Baifeng's ear, turned around fiercely, and in the midst of Zi Baifeng's screams, turned around and left with the little stone .

Did I commit some evil today?Being beaten by Uncle Zhuzi in the morning, four dogs in the afternoon, and auntie in the evening, could it be that the years are unfavorable?Bah, bah, bah, my luck is good!
"Father, did I say something wrong?" Zi Baifeng turned to look at his father, "Don't say that you and your aunt are really brother and sister, your son's eyes are sharp!"

My father is just in his early thirties, and my aunt is not yet 30 years old. This is the age of a wolf like a tiger. A piece of dry wood and a fire can't get together or light up.My father is not in a hurry, but Zi Baifeng is still in a hurry for him.

"Go!" Zijian slapped Zi Baifeng on the head, and turned his face away, trying to use the dancing candlelight to cover up his flushed face.

"Father, when it comes to this matter, I want to talk to you carefully." Zi Baifeng moved a stool and sat closer, "Did you notice that Uncle Zhuzi looked at Auntie with a green light in his eyes, like a wolf, Don't dawdle and let Uncle Zhuzi snatch away Auntie. Auntie is such a good woman, where can I find her..."

"Hey, let me tell you, you child, did you take the wrong medicine today?" Zijian finally confirmed that something was wrong with his child since he came back from the exam, very wrong, as if he was a different person.

"Don't worry about the medicine I take, Dad, just tell me whether you like Auntie or not." Zi Baifeng pulled the stool closer again, almost to the old man's face, which is pushing his nose on his face. up.

"Go, go eat your meal, children don't care about adults' affairs." Zijian waved his hand.

"Tch, Dad, when you were my age, you became my father." Zi Baifeng waved his hands disdainfully, "Little Shitou already has a daughter-in-law, why don't you let me care? Do you want to have a grandson?" ?”

Yo ho!My son is really arrogant today!Zijian is upset, what about his serious and dignified son?Give me back that son!
My son can't be so arrogant!
Seeing that his son was fine, he picked up chopsticks to eat like a normal person, Zijian didn't beat up, and said: "Eat, you know how to eat, your aunt and Xiaoshitou haven't eaten yet, why don't you hurry up and send half of them over there!"

So what about Xiucai Lang, he still has to be obedient.

"Oh..." Zi Baifeng smiled meanly, obediently agreed, and glanced at Zijian.

With Zijian's old face, spread the batter and fry pancakes.

Zi Baifeng set aside half of the food and took it to the opposite side.After knocking on the door, I heard a small stone creak and open the door, obviously waiting for a long time.

Seeing Zi Baifeng approaching, Xiao Shitou whispered: "Brother, what should I do, my mother is angry with you."

"Your mother is not angry with me, my aunt is beautiful in her heart..." Zi Baifeng nodded the little stone's dirty nose, "What do you know, take the food over here, it's getting cold soon."

"Hmph, I'm not a little kid, I already have a wife." Xiao Shitou shook Zi Baifeng's fingers, wrinkled his nose and bared his teeth at him, turned and left.

Zi Baifeng tied his belt to the door latch, closed the door, pulled the door latch, helped Xiaoshi to latch the door from the inside, and shook the belt again, pulling the belt off the door latch.

When the group of little stones closed the door, they heard the little stones inside say to Yan Wu: "Mother, brother said you are not angry, and brother said you are beautiful, ouch..." Apparently Yan Wu slapped her on the forehead After a note, there was a soft scold: "Speak up!"

"This little stone, why is he so ignorant? Sometimes the truth cannot be told..." Zi Baifeng imagined Yan Wu's shy and angry look, and laughed, this little stone was really wronged.

Standing at the gate of Yan Wu's house and secretly having fun for a while, Zi Baifeng felt that this should be able to dissolve the reservedness of these two people for so many years. These two people obviously have love and concubine intentions, but they don't want to pierce the last layer of window paper. How do these two people have such a good concentration?

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw a tall figure standing behind him.

"Wow..." Zi Baifeng was startled, and jumped back, only to see that the man was Yan Laowu.

"Old man, do you need me?" Seeing that the old man was silent, Zi Baifeng asked.

"You have something to ask me." Yan Lao Wuwen said in a low voice, "Stop pretending, I know it's about tax collection."

If it wasn't for tax collection, would it be worth going to his house twice in the afternoon?
Why did Yan Lao Wu come here?Is it because of the four dogs?
Zi Baifeng looked at Yan Laowu suspiciously, Yan Laowu blushed rarely, and said: "You young man, let me stand here and talk to you?"

"It's not convenient to talk at home. Since it's business, let's go to the private school to talk." Zi Baifeng is really not afraid of Yan Lao Wu now, he said to Zi Jian, and went to the private school one after the other with Yan Lao Wu .

Seeing that this guy was making a move again, Yan Laowu was upset, but thinking of being restless all afternoon, he shook his head and followed.

The more Yan Laowu thought about it in the afternoon, the more uncomfortable he became. He had been a hero all his life, at least he had been a hero all his life, but he had never done such an unscrupulous thing.Hearing that Zi Baifeng was beaten by Sigou because of the tax collection problem in the afternoon, he felt even more uncomfortable. He didn't eat dinner. After staying until now, he finally couldn't help but come to Zi Baifeng.

"Now that you are the village official, the matter of tax collection is still yours after all. I can only give you advice." The two of them arrived at Zi Baifeng's study room and sat down as guests and hosts. They didn't have much tea and just talked dryly. up.

After finishing speaking, Yan Lao Wu didn't wait for Zi Baifeng to say anything more, so he started talking in one go.

The more he listened, the more surprised Zi Baifeng became.

This guy looks old and dizzy, but he knows the family background of each family in the village better than his own.It is clear which one can be collected, which one is not easy to collect, and which one needs to sell how much.

"Tomorrow I will say hello to everyone. Paying taxes is a matter for the whole village, but the three times the tax is impossible to get together..." Yan Lao Wu finished, patted his buttocks and left, There is a feeling of "I can only help you here, fellow Taoist".

Zi Baifeng watched him leave, but he felt a little complicated in his heart. His decision during the day was really right. It's not that Yan Laowu was against him, he just didn't think about it for a while.

However, now he has some concerns in his heart, and he doesn't completely need Yan Lao Wu's help.

Zi Baifeng sat in the study for a while, clearing his mind, and not long after, he heard Zi Baifeng's voice from outside: "Baifeng, are you inside?"

Seeing that his son would not come back, Zijian was worried that his son would be hungry, so he brought over the food again.

The father and son dealt with each other in the study room relatively silently, and they were [-]% full after a meal, so they didn't feel like eating, and went home to sleep with heavy thoughts.

Zi Baifeng didn't sleep much that night, but he heard his father tossing and turning in the opposite room, making it difficult to fall asleep.

Not far from the next door, there was also a person who couldn't sleep. Mrs. Yan Wu was lying on the bed with a small stone in her arms, looking up at the bright moon outside the window stupidly, and couldn't help smiling.

How dare this kid, Bai Feng, dare to say anything... I really like it!

Thinking of this, Yan Wu hugged Xiao Shitou tightly, listened to Xiao Shitou's muttering in sleep, and hid her blushing face under the quilt.

In fact, he didn't sleep much, so it's not just Zi Baifeng?That night, eight out of ten people in Xiayan Village did not fall asleep, and the remaining two were children who didn't understand anything.

The only adult who slept soundly was the fourth son of the publican who had another drink that night. His snoring was so loud that it was difficult for fifth Yan to fall asleep.

At the fourth watch, Zi Baifeng finally fell asleep in a daze, but not long after, he heard shouts outside, as if something serious had happened.

"Baifeng, Baifeng, wake up!" Zijian shook Zibaifeng for a long time, and Zibaifeng reluctantly opened his eyes, saying: "It's still early for class, let me sleep for a while... call the name and help me deal with it one time……"

"This child, what are you talking about, get up, something big happened! Something happened to the four dogs!"

Four dogs?Hearing this name, Zi Baifeng was shocked, and then suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten Sigou and Yan's Heavenly Soldiers...

No wonder I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

He hurriedly put on his clothes and ran outside. He ran outside to have a look, and saw that Yan Wu was also visiting outside with a small stone with sleepy eyes.

The family of four gathered together and walked towards the ancestral hall. Before they reached the ancestral hall, they had already received many eyes, most of them surprised.

Walking to the gate of the ancestral hall, he saw Yan Laowu standing at the gate, Zi Baifeng walked over and said, "What's wrong?"

The woman, the child, and the other three members of Zi's family who have a foreign surname do not have the identity of Zi Baifeng as the village official, so they consciously stay behind.

Yan Lao Wu turned a deaf ear, as if he was scared into a sculpture.

Zi Baifeng looked up and was also shocked.
