Chapter 13: New Clothes
Doctor Song saw that his son was getting more and more troublesome, and quickly stopped: "He's just a child, what are you messing with him?" turned his head to Chu Sheng and said: "Your sister gave it to you, you can wear it, it's cold, and we didn't pay attention, you can't wear these few pieces on your body, I'll ask someone when I go back and see if I can get you another set of autumn clothes." Chu Sheng didn't want to trouble Dr. Song, rural people don't have cloth tickets, it's not easy to make a set of clothes, some old clothes are also useful, and they won't be given away in vain, so he said: "Uncle Song, it's okay, don't bother you." ”
Doctor Song didn't continue to argue with Chu Sheng, and didn't continue the topic. Chu Sheng remembered one thing: "Uncle Song, my sister will take me to the town tomorrow." I won't come back for dinner at noon. "Okay, you have to be obedient, don't run around, there are kidnappers in the town, don't kidnap people." Uncle gives you some money, you take it, and buy snacks tomorrow. After speaking, Dr. Song wanted to pay for it. Chu Sheng directly refused: "Uncle, I don't want your money, my sister said she would buy it for me." Doctor Song thought that Lin Xi was a young intellectual, and now he didn't earn centimeters, how much money could he have, and insisted on giving it. But Chu Sheng resolutely didn't want to, and Dr. Song had no choice but to take the money back.
Early in the morning, Lin Xi came to the clinic, and Chu Sheng had been looking at the gate of the hospital for a while. Seeing Lin Xi's figure, he hurriedly greeted him, and Dr. Song felt funny, and teased: "You can count it here, this little guy is waiting at the door early in the morning." Someone laughed at him, and Chu Sheng's face was a little red. Lin Xi touched the little guy's head and said, "Are you in a hurry, let's go." Glancing at Chu Sheng's new clothes, Lin Xi was even more satisfied. The black-hearted store asked for eight gold coins for this set of clothes, and Lin Xi didn't know how to make clothes, so he gritted his teeth and bought it. After seeing Chu Sheng put it on, it really seemed like a different person, and he was not too distressed.
Chu Sheng noticed that Lin Xi was looking at his clothes, and felt even more embarrassed, and followed behind Lin Xi shyly. Sensing the child's shyness, Lin Xi pulled him to stand beside him and said, "Be generous, are you embarrassed to wear a new dress? You look good, and you look good in this body." Chu Sheng lowered his head, the corners of his mouth pulled up, and his heart was happy.
The two greeted Dr. Song and went to the entrance of the village together.
There was a tractor parked at the entrance of the village, and two villagers sat on it, and it was Chu Baichuan who was driving, a young man in his twenties, who was a little surprised when he saw Chu Sheng coming, and looked at Lin Xi next to Chu Sheng, and wondered more and more, how did these two get together. There was still a smile on his face: "Lin Zhiqing, go to the town!" "Yes, take Chu Sheng to the town to have a look." Chu Sheng shouted, "Fifth cousin." "The two are somewhat related, and when they come down, Chu Sheng calls him the fifth cousin. Chu Baichuan answered, Lin Xi took out a dime and handed it to Chu Baichuan. Five cents a person on a tractor. After collecting the money, Chu Baichuan let Lin Xi and the two get into the car.
Lin Xi found a place at random, and Chu Sheng sat next to Lin Xi. Everyone saw Chu Sheng's new clothes, and someone greeted Lin Xi, but their eyes kept glancing at Chu Sheng's clothes. The children in the village can only get a new set of clothes during the New Year, but now that it is not a New Year, Chu Sheng mixed up a new dress to wear, and he didn't know who prepared it. With a bit of inquiry, the villagers gossiped with Lin Xi. It didn't take long for people to come. A short-haired woman got into the car with her son, and when Chu Sheng saw someone coming, he lowered his head and covered the look in his eyes. The woman got into the car with her son, and when she saw Chu Sheng, she was also stunned for a moment, and then saw Chu Sheng's new clothes, and her face was ugly. "Why are you so unruly, you don't call people when you see your elders. Jin Cui made a straight face and trained Chu Sheng. Lin Xi frowned and looked at Jin Cui: "This aunt, are you Chu Sheng's second aunt?" "Yes, what's wrong?" Jin Cui's sharp voice pierced Lin Xi's ears. Lin Xi said unhurriedly: "Since it is Chu Sheng's relative, why don't you pay the medical expenses owed to Dr. Song?" Jin Cui was embarrassed by Lin Xi's words, and blushed angrily and said, "Who are you, what do you care about? His father doesn't want him anymore, why do you have to pay for his medicine?" Jin Cui couldn't hear that someone wanted to take money out of her pocket.
"Since he doesn't recognize him, it has nothing to do with him, so why does he still call someone? ”
Lin Xi smiled mildly, but his eyes were sarcastic. Jin Cui was speechless for a while, and some villagers looked at Jin Cui, and the disdain on their faces was not concealed. An old lady on the side opened her mouth: "Ergen daughter-in-law, don't speak." As soon as you spoke, the voice pierced my ears and my head hurt. If you make any more noise, get out of the car. I can't stand this in my bones. The old lady's voice was not high, but such a strong attitude was still rare. Jin Cui's face was ugly, but he didn't dare to choke an old lady, this old woman was of high rank in the village, and Tang Zhishu spoke politely to him. She pulled her son by the way, changed positions, and shrunk into a corner.
Chu Baichuan stepped forward and greeted: "Grandma Lian, you sit in front of you, the wind is strong behind, don't blow you." The old lady waved her hand: "It's okay, I'll just sit here, and you can drive the car steadily." Chu Baichuan responded repeatedly.
The old lady walked around and sat directly beside Chu Sheng. Chu Sheng greeted the old lady, and the old lady touched Chu Sheng's head and said, "It's Chu boy, I have time to go to grandma's house to play." Chu Sheng nodded.
Over there, Bao'er's eyes kept staring at Chu Sheng's new clothes, and while people were not paying attention, she pulled Jin Cui's sleeves and whispered, "Mom, I also want a new dress, just like him." "Jin Cui doesn't have the money to buy new clothes for his son, not to mention spending money, and he also needs a lot of cloth tickets, but he doesn't have them at home. I had to grit my teeth and say, "You wait, Mom will find a way." ”
The tractor "suddenly" sounded, and it took less than half an hour to arrive in the town, and everyone set a time to return to the city, and dispersed. Lin Xi took Chu Sheng and walked a few steps, and Jin Cui chased after him. She didn't expect Chu Sheng to be brought by Lin Xi, she thought that the little rabbit cub came alone, but in the face of Lin Xi, she was not stunned at all, and asked in a sharp voice: "Little rabbit cub, where did you get this dress?" Chu Sheng looked at her coldly: "What does it have to do with you?"
"Did you cheat it, or did you steal it? Give me the clothes, they are not for you to wear. You give it to me, and I'll give you a set of clothes you can wear. Jin Cui stared at Chu Sheng with beads in her eyes.
Bao'er shouted from the sidelines: "Give me clothes, give me clothes." Hurry up and take it off and put it on me. ”
Lin Xi was angry and laughed at this strange thing, stood up directly, protected Chu Sheng behind him, and said loudly: "Aunt Jin, be a good person, okay? Chu Sheng has nothing to do with your family, you still come to snatch the child's things, you are too thick-skinned." Also, if you say that the child stole other people's things without evidence, what is it if you rob the children's things now?"
Jin Cui didn't want to bother with her, and stepped forward to make a move with Lin Xi, Chu Sheng rushed out quickly, and slammed into Jin Cui, Jin Cui's body was crooked, and she almost sat on the ground. He was so angry that he pointed at Chu Sheng's nose and scolded: "Eat things inside and outside, you still dare to bump into me, I will tell your father when I turn around, let him beat you to death, and quickly give me the clothes." ”
Lin Xi felt that he couldn't communicate with her, because Jin Cui's sharp voice had already attracted a lot of people to look over here, Lin Xi's eyes rolled, and he pulled Chu Sheng back slowly, Jin Cui saw that they were about to run and chased after her. Lin Xi shouted as he retreated: "Don't come here, don't rob our things, don't rob our things." As soon as he heard that he was robbing something, some enthusiastic people surrounded him, Jin Cui was a little flustered, and scolded angrily: "Little hoof, what are you shouting?" Someone came over to stop Jin Cui who was about to beat someone, and asked her: "What are you doing?" Jin Cui pointed to Chu Sheng and said: "This is my nephew, he took my family's things, I will discipline him, you don't meddle in your affairs." Lin Xi said coldly: "Auntie, tell me, what is your family, this kid hasn't taken anything from your family, he was kicked out empty-handed." ”
Jin Cui didn't want to reveal those things at home, she was really embarrassed, watching the people around her gather more and more, she couldn't please herself, so she angrily put down a cruel sentence: "You wait for me, and I'll clean you up when I turn back." After speaking, he pulled Bao'er and turned around and left.
Lin Xi didn't want to waste time, so he briefly talked about the situation, and a few enthusiastic people dispersed. Chu Sheng looked at Lin Xi with a hurt expression on his face, Lin Xi hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay, don't think about it, this person is a scoundrel, I'll go and talk to Tang Zhishu when I go back, it'll be fine." Chu Sheng took Lin Xi's hand, his eyes were full of confusion, and asked, "Sister, why don't they like me?"
Lin Xi felt sad when he heard this, and held his hand with his backhand and said: "Those people are all fascinated, they can't see your goodness, others don't like you, I like you, and Doctor Song, don't they all like you very much?"
When Chu Sheng heard this, there was more expectation in his eyes: "Sister, you won't leave me, right? You will always like me, right?" Lin Xi looked at Chu Sheng's eagerness to be recognized, squatted down, and said softly: "Yes, sister won't leave you." Chu Sheng finally showed a comfortable smile: "Then we have decided." After speaking, he took Lin Xi's hand and dragged Lin Xi away quickly.
Lin Xi vaguely felt that he was being tricked, but thinking about it, he was a ten-year-old child, and he was probably afraid of being abandoned, so he said such things. If you are dragged again, you will have no mind to think about it.
The mechanical voice in his ears sounded again: "Congratulations, complete the stage task - gain Chu Sheng's favor, the completion rate is 80%, and you will get 120 gold coins rewarded by the system." ”
The system that hasn't appeared for a long time has finally shown its face, and this time there are a lot more gold coins rewarded, Lin Xi felt a little more comforted in her heart, in fact, if you think about it, most of the gold coins she obtained before were also used on Chu Sheng, and I don't know who these rewards are for.
