Kang Yurong looked at Wu Xiuzhi who was expressionless inside the door, she didn't know what she meant by opening the door at this time.

Was it her sincerity that moved her and wanted to help?

Was he anxious by his repeated visits and came out to give an ultimatum?

couldn't figure out what the other party meant, Kang Yurong had to pretend to be deaf and dumb and didn't say a word.

Wu Xiuzhi looked at Kang Yurong, glanced at Liang Yu next to him, and said coldly: "Come in." ”

Kang Yurong was overjoyed in his heart, it seemed that it was really his piety that moved the heavens, oh, no, it was Wu Xiuzhi's cold heart.

She smiled and followed.

When Kang Yurong arrived at the door of the house, Liang Yu behind her stopped her: "Miss Kang, I am in this small courtyard, call me if you have something." ”

Kang Yurong nodded at him, meaning I know.

As soon as he entered the room, Kang Yurong's eyes couldn't help but be curious, and he looked around.

The house, like the adobe houses in this area, is small and has few rooms, only three rooms in total. The room they are in now is a living room (barely a living room).

In this living room, there is a square wooden table, flanked by two chairs of the same color, and a set of white porcelain tea sets on the table.

Behind the table and chair is a set of tables and chairs, on which there are two porcelain vases, and the one on the left has a feather duster inserted in it. Other than that, there are no other objects in the living room.

The walls are plastered with coarse white ash, and there is a doorway on the left and right, with cloth curtains hanging on them.

Rough and simple, it is everything in this room, and it gives Kang Yurong the only feeling.

She couldn't imagine how a rich lady in Shanghai, who wore a silk coat, lived in a bungalow, and had several people to serve her, could have lived in such a shabby environment for more than ten years.

She doubted, seriously doubted, this Wu Xiuzhi who opened the door for her was really the Tang Manying she was looking for?

But this Wu Xiuzhi's dress, speech and demeanor had to make her dispel her guesses.

Wu Xiuzhi pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down." ”

"Thank you. Because of the cold, Kang Yurong's voice was a little hoarse.

"What's the matter, tell me. Wu Xiuzhi asked.

"Liang Yu, bring the things in. Kang Yurong shouted out the door.

After a while, Liang Yue came in with the curtain, holding a large cardboard box in his hand, first saluted Wu Xiuzhi, then put the carton on the square table, and silently withdrew.

Kang Yurong said straight to the point: "I want to bother you to help change clothes." ”

Wu Xiuzhi glanced coldly at the cardboard box on the table, and asked an irrelevant word: "How did you find me here? How did you know that I could repair clothes?"

didn't hide it or tucked it, Kang Yurong said everything in the hospital word by word.

Wu Xiuzhi said: "If you can find here, you can only think about it through the mouths of the two of them." Only they know that I am a fellow countryman with them. The tone was still lukewarm, but it was not as cold as it was just now.

After thinking for a few seconds, Kang Yurong realized that the "two of them" in Wu Xiuzhi's mouth referred to the couple in the hospital.

"What else did they say to your doctor friends?" Wu Xiuzhi asked again.

Kang Yurong hurriedly said: "Actually, the husband didn't say much, he only said how good you were to them when you were in Shanghai, and how important that dress was to his wife. As for your name and current address, it can be said that he was forced to say it in desperation. After all, my friend helped her wife when her life was hanging by a thread. ”

Wu Xiuzhi said: "It's really stupid to almost put your life on the line for a piece of clothing." ”

In the eyes of onlookers, such an approach is indeed stupid. But in their hearts, it's not just an expensive piece of clothing, it's your kindness to them, your kindness to them. When they can't see each other, they can hold the clothes you give them and see things and think about people. ”

Wu Xiuzhi took a deep breath and said, "I really didn't expect that a piece of clothing not only brought disaster to them, but also stirred up my peaceful life. If I had known this, I wouldn't have sent them. ”

Kang Yurong smiled and said, "I think this is God's favor for me, bringing you to me when I am desperate." ”

"God doesn't favor you, I don't know, but I really can't do anything about it. ”

Without waiting for Kang Yurong to speak, Wu Xiuzhi stood up and rolled up the sleeve of his left hand. Kang Yurong took advantage of the situation and jumped up from the chair in shock.

A snowy arm is covered with a disgusting scar in the shape of a centipede. This is nothing, it is really nothing, what surprised Kang Yurong even more was that there was nothing else in this shocking jade arm to the wrist - this woman had lost her left hand.

No wonder she wears an unfashionable coat this season. It turned out that she was using the heavy sleeves to cover the ugliness and mutilation of the unwillingness to be outsiders.

With such an arm, looking at Kang Yurong's eyes, she had the urge to cry.

Compared with Kang Yurong's excitement, Wu Xiuzhi seemed much calmer. She lowered her sleeves, looked at Kang Yurong and said, "Your spirit of 'looking at the thatched house' has really touched me, which is why I invited you in." But I really can't help you. ”

After learning the truth, Kang Yurong didn't say a word more, let alone ask about the origin of those scars and mutilations. Because she knew that no matter what, it was just a painful memory for Wu Xiuzhi.

She said, "I see, excuse me, farewell." ”

Kang Yurong turned around to take the carton on the table, but he didn't hold it steadily, and the box fell to the ground and scattered.

Wu Xiuzhi subconsciously bent down and picked up the dress, shook it open, looked at it and said, "This dress is not cumbersome." ”

Kang Yurong replied unconcernedly: "It's quite simple." As he spoke, he wanted to get his clothes back.

Wu Xiuzhi raised his hand, dodged Kang Yurong's outstretched hand, and asked, "Have you ever made clothes?"

"I haven't done it. However, before getting married, I helped my sisters modify a lot of clothes, but they were all Chinese-style clothes. ”

"Come in with me. ”

Wu Xiuzhi took the clothes and entered the inner room on the left, and Kang Yurong followed.

Kang Yurong guessed correctly, this is a bedroom. This room has the same characteristics as the living room outside - clean, crude.

Wu Xiuzhi spread his clothes on the kang, took out scissors, needlework, rulers and other utensils, and said to Kang Yurong: "I'll do it, you will do it." ”

Kang Yurong was stunned, is this going to help?

Seeing that the other party was stunned, the corners of Wu Xiuzhi's mouth slanted, and he asked with a slight sarcasm: "Why don't you dare?"

Kang Yurong straightened his neck and said, "Why don't you dare?"

Kang Yurong's so-called last "killer feature" is actually her own battle. What she thought was that if God refused to help her, then she would rely on her experience in helping her sisters repair clothes and fight hard.

She dared to do it herself without help, let alone having a "master" by her side to direct and help.

Under the guidance of Wu Xiuzhi, Kang Yurong carefully measured the size, walked scissors, threaded needles and threads, and sutured closely. It looks pretty simple, but it's already two hours after it's really busy.

Kang Yurong carefully spread his clothes on the kang, looked at it, and said with joy: "It's really good." ”

Wu Xiuzhi also looked at the clothes, frowned and said, "Look at this size, you didn't wear this clothes, right?"

Kang Yurong replied truthfully: "You are right. Then, she explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail.

Quietly listening to Kang Yurong finish speaking, after a while, Wu Xiuzhi looked at the other party and said sincerely: "It's hard to rush at you with this 'more serious' energy, it's hard to get rich or not." ”

Kang Yurong smiled and said, "Then I will accept your auspicious words." ”

It's always hard to ask people to help, after Kang Yurong put away his clothes, he took out a stack of banknotes from his coat pocket and put them on the kang, saying, "Thank you really this time." ”

Wu Xiuzhi pushed the money back and said, "Thank you for no need, I just hope you don't bother me again in the future." ”

Kang Yurong thought, she really couldn't give Wu Xiuzhi this guarantee.

Of course, if she can, try not to bother, but as a last resort, it is impossible to say, she has to leave a way back for herself.

Therefore, Kang Yurong just smiled and didn't answer Wu Xiuzhi's words.

It was not early, and Kang Yurong still wanted to rush back to deliver clothes to customers, so he didn't stay any longer, took the clothes and got up to say goodbye. Just as she unintentionally rolled her eyes, her eyes were attracted by the two walls in the room, and she walked over unconsciously.

The two walls are still ordinary white and gray walls, but the walls are neatly arranged and covered with hundreds of clothing artwork, including winter, summer, dresses, and cheongsams.

Kang Yurong looked at the past line by line, and she really had never seen those novel and chic "clothes", even when she was in the UK.

Kang Yurong couldn't help but reach out and touch one of the "dresses", imagining how beautiful it would be if it was made into clothes according to such a style.

She tilted her head to look at Wu Xiuzhi and asked, "These are really beautiful, you painted them?"

Wu Xiuzhi didn't look at her, and said lukewarmly, "You should go back." ”

Kang Yurong ignored her, his eyes rolling around the room, as if he was applying for something.

Sure enough, on the small table next to the window on the kang, Kang Yurong saw a stack of white paper and a few pencils, and she exclaimed in surprise: "You really drew it, you are really amazing." ”

"Whether I painted it or not has nothing to do with you, it's time for you to go out. Wu Xiuzhi repeated it again, and the tone became cold again. She really regretted that she shouldn't have relented for a moment and invited this uninvited guest in, causing so many topics that she didn't want to touch.

Kang Yurong saw that Wu Xiuzhi had lost his face, so he had to put away his curiosity.

Kang Yurong and Liang Yu walked out of Wu's house, Wu Xiuzhi did not come out to see off the guests, Liang Yu took the initiative to close the door with his backhand, and the two walked towards the entrance of the village.

Liang Yu laughed and said, "That woman is really a weird person. ”

Kang Yurong thought of the ugly and mutilated arm, and a clear pain flowed through the tip of his heart.

She looked into the distance and said, "Every person who behaves perversely has an untold story behind it. She is a person with a story. ”

Kang Yurong is right, Wu Xiuzhi is indeed a person with a story, and her story is destined to be a tragedy from the beginning.
