Chapter 173: Can't Sleep
Now that the basic intention has been reached, Ouyang Kang directly made a decision, "If you are willing, then this matter is settled." However, although you are not slaves of my family, there are some basic rules that you still need to learn. He will be responsible for taking care of you in the future, and you can ask him to find me for anything. "As for Sister Mu, forget it. Let her save a little more and learn to cook well.
Before his words fell, the child who hadn't interjected for a long time suddenly asked, "Then can you teach us a few words in the future?" ”
Ouyang Kang was a little surprised. If you want to read and write, you naturally plan for the long term, don't look at this child's age, but he has a lot of knowledge.
Nodding slightly at Zhong Shan, Zhong Shan immediately said, "The eldest young master has allowed this, why don't you thank him soon?" ”
Ouyang Kang shook his head, "Don't thank me, I didn't raise you in vain." If you want to learn literacy, you can, but I won't provide pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, so you have to earn it yourself. When I have done what I have commanded me to do, I will take care of the food. With more time, you can do something else if you want. As long as it's a serious industry, I won't drive you away. ”
This is good enough, even Nian Fu can't think of a better way to place it.
To say that these children are of course very pitiful, it stands to reason that they should all be supported by the imperial court, so that they can have no worries about food and clothing, and study with peace of mind. But is this realistic? It seems that no dynasty has ever been able to do this completely, right? Even the United Nations does not give out candy to children in poor areas for no reason, but must pay for it with small labor or study.
Because compassion and funding are not fundamental to the solution to poverty, they are born unfortunate. He has fallen to the bottom of society, so he must work harder than others to reach the top.
Ouyang Kangken took them in and gave them a job opportunity, not only to give them food and a place to live, but more importantly, to give them a chance to re-enter a normal society. How far each person can go next is up to them.
Vacate a large room and settle these children, and Nian Fu can finally rest.
But I couldn't sleep.
Because she remembered the previous thing again.
How could he take the initiative to kiss Ouyang Kang? I didn't kiss it. What a grievance!
Will he think he's. Got a bad idea about him? Will he look down on himself because of this, and feel that he is very good?
God is pitiful, she is wronged! If she hadn't been fascinated by his beauty, would she have wanted to kiss him in a daze? So it's all his fault. Definitely not your own problem.
You know, it was a girl's first kiss. First kiss! That's it. Is he embarrassed to blame himself?
Momentarily ashamed. The girl who was annoyed, blushed, and angry couldn't fall asleep.
And not far from the next door. There are also people who are secretly repenting.
Did he take the wrong medicine or take the wrong tendon?
Why did he retreat at such a critical time? Isn't it okay to be silent? Why do you want to be like a little girl, panic and dodge? Are you a big man embarrassed?
Oops, could she have misunderstood? Do you think you don't like her and don't want to be kissed by her?
Great injustice!
Actually, he was just nervous at the time. He's just, just needs a little bit of time to get mentally ready. He really didn't mean to avoid it, he, he actually wanted to kiss it too......
The roots of the ears were inexplicably hot, and the girl's pretty face and lips seemed to appear in front of her eyes again.
The girl's lips are pink, not so obvious, but there is a kind of bud-like pink tenderness, like it, like the lotus root powder he likes to eat in summer. Powdery, translucent, semi-condensed, when you put it in the well water and touch it with a spoon, it will tremble gently, making people want to take a bite when they look at it.
If you really bite into it, it should be sweet, right?
But why did he want to dodge!
Pounding the bed in annoyance, angrily scolding herself 11 million times in her heart, and then she couldn't help but think, will she kiss again?
Not...... She wants to kiss herself, does it prove that she likes herself too?
But why is he not kissing? If God gives him another chance, he will definitely not miss it.
But what if she refuses to kiss again? So what to do?
Can he take the initiative?
The slight creaking of the bed board disturbed Wangcai very unpleasantly. Just under the parent's bed, the bed board kept ringing, and it came here on purpose. Why did this parent make the same mistake? It's annoying!
I wanted to sleep in another place, but I seemed to have done something wrong today, not only was I scolded, but I was also locked in a chicken coop. Although it is released now, it is better to hug the parents' thighs. Otherwise, what if you have to lock it up again tomorrow?
The distressed little wolf cub had to continue to lie under the bed aggrieved, accompanied by annoying squeaks, accompanied by insomnia with the owner.

Huai'an Town, Shi family.
Elderly people sleep a lot, but they can't sleep deeply, and Aunt Shi woke up, but she couldn't sleep at all. Just thinking about his thoughts, he suddenly heard Daddy Shi beside him sigh secretly.
"What? You haven't slept yet? ”
"Where can I sleep?" Father Shi simply turned around and said bluntly without concealing it, "I think about Nianfu that girl in my heart, I am worried." ”
As soon as she mentioned this, Aunt Shi wanted to shed tears, "What do you say is going on with the Ouyang family?" How can we have to go to the street to do business with their eldest young master? What kind of crystal scroll is only fifteen wen, and I don't know if it is enough for the two of them to eat? ”
"How is it enough?" Father Shi frowned and worried, "Even if I earn enough money for food, what about accommodation?" Didn't you hear that they were all driven out of the Ouyang family and got to live in a broken garden? I'm afraid it's not as good as ours, it's time for snow in the capital right now, right? I don't know what they have frozen! ”
Aunt Shi wanted to cry even more when she heard this, and suddenly she heard a click, as if something had fallen in the yard.
The old couple was shocked, this is a thief? I got dressed up, but I saw that the lights were already on in the next room, and Hui Niang walked out first.
"Who?"
There was silence, and no one answered.
The old couple hurriedly opened the door and went out of the house, Hui Niang was still carrying a flat pole in her hand, looking left and right vigilantly. But it's dark all around, where can you see a figure?
Rubbing his eyes and looking carefully in the courtyard, Father Shi suddenly saw something, and when he picked it up, it turned out to be a bulging money bag. When I opened it, it was all broken silver. Weighing the portion, there are thirty or forty taels.
"Hui Niang, don't look for it, it's that person who is here to deliver the money again. Only in the past, it was always two or three to give, how can you give so much this time? ”
Speaking of this, it is really strange that his debts have long been paid off, but there are still people who throw money at his house in the middle of the night. Once a month, rain or shine, my granddaughter has been gone for more than half a year, and this person has also sent dozens of taels.
The Shi family didn't move, they put it away properly, and this time, it was almost sixty or seventy taels. But who is this?
"No matter who it is, dad or mother, I want to use this money." Suddenly, Hui Niang cautiously told her parents about her decision, "I want to take your second elder to Beijing together to find the girl who is blessed!" ”
The second elder of the Shi family bluffed, "Go to Beijing? ”
"Yes!" Under the lamp, there is a different kind of stubbornness and firmness in Hui Niang's eyebrows, "Nianfu is not the girl who forgets us when she sees and plays, what kind of routine does she have to be, so she doesn't even have the time to write a letter to us?" I'm not afraid that she won't have anything to eat, I'm just afraid that this girl will go home to make money, and she won't even know how to cherish her own body. If she's exhausted, what hope can I have? ”
Seeing that she was red-eyed, the second elder of the Shi family choked up in his throat, but after thinking about it for a long time, Father Shi still shook his head, "But the road to Beijing is not so easy to walk, I didn't look at the young lady of the Ouyang family, and it took two or three months to even take the official road, let's take the trail, how long will it take?" Besides, your mother and I are not in a good position, and I am afraid that it will drag you down if I go. It's better to go to Ouyang's house to inquire again, I don't think their young lady looks like she has come to the countryside to live for a long time, maybe she will have to go back after the New Year, and if you want to go, you can take their house and go together, and we can rest assured. ”
"No!" Hui Niang shook her head resolutely, "I can't wait for a day." When I thought of that girl who was struggling in the capital for some reason, my heart was like a fire. But if I put you and my second elder at home, I really can't feel at ease, so we have to go together. Anyway, this family doesn't have anything of value, and with these silver taels, let's pack up and hire a car and go on the road. Even if it's slower, it's better to walk for four or five months than to ask for someone. Besides, I don't know if it's inconvenient for people to bring us, could it be that the people of Layue in this cold winter just came, so they ran to ask them when they would return to Beijing? ”
The old couple glanced at each other and felt that there was some truth. Aunt Shi said, "What if we leave and Nianfu comes back?" Why don't you let your father accompany you to Beijing, and I'll look after the house at home? ”
"Since we're leaving, let's go together!" Father Shi thought about it left and right, and made a decision, "If Nianfu girl can come back, she will come back with others." If she didn't go then, she wouldn't be on the road in the winter. Let's go, it's really a time now, and when we get to the capital, let Hui Niang find her son-in-law. I've been there once in my life, and no matter what, she can feel at ease. ”
Hui Niang had tears in her eyes, "Dad, thank you." ”
"Silly girl, what are you polite to your father? Now that we have decided to leave, let's hurry up and calculate what to bring on the road, how to put the money, and how to walk on the road. There are also neighbors who want to tell me, the key to the house will be handed over to Aunt Li, and if you don't do the business of Sister-in-law Song's restaurant, you have to say hello to people in advance. ”
……
The family stayed up all night and began to discuss the matter of going to Beijing.
(Two days after the end of the month, continue to ask for tickets!) I don't know what others have to say, I'll do my best to update. Well, there will still be three more today. But first only get out 2 more, three more to fight for or the old time to send ha! (To be continued......)
