"Then Sun Wukong went to the East China Sea Dragon Palace, what treasure did he get?" Su Zijin hurriedly asked. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"That's all for today's story, let's listen to the next breakdown!" Li Chunhai didn't expect that he still had the ability to tell a storyteller, and the novel "Journey to the West" had not yet appeared in this era. So she told Su Zijin "Journey to the West" for more than an hour, which really made Su Zijin enjoy listening to it.
"It's dark now, I'll tell you about it tomorrow afternoon." Li Chunhai saw the sky outside, and only felt a rumbling in her stomach, after all, these young masters would have maids to bring the food, but she had to go to the room to do it herself, so she couldn't wait to leave here at this time.
"Will you come to tell me about "Journey to the West" tomorrow?" Su Zijin looked at Li Chunhai with some reluctance. Although Li Chunhai was reluctant to play the role of a storyteller anymore, in order to let this Su Zijin study hard, he had to nod and say, "As long as you study carefully, I will come to tell you a story tomorrow." ”
Su Zijin promised herself like Li Chunhai so much, so he was willing to let her go. So Li Chunhai hurriedly went to the people's room, only to see that in the big pot on the stove, there was less than half a bowl of rice left, and there was only a small plate left in the side dishes for dinner.
"It's better to have than nothing!" Li Chunhai didn't eat the meal in the morning because he was late in the morning, and now he was hungry, so he ate half a bowl of rice and a plate of side dishes cleanly after dividing five by two. For Li Chunhai, even if this body is just a little girl, these foods are naturally not enough for her to eat. When she returned to her room, she didn't sleep for a while before she was hungry.
"No, it's too uncomfortable." Li Chunhai touched his belly, thinking that he was so hungry that he didn't want to sleep well this night. So she decided to sneak into another room at night, that is, the kitchen that specially cooks for the Su family, to see if there was anything to eat there.
So she waited for the watchman to beat the two watches, and then sneaked out of the room, and according to the memory of the day, she touched the door of the house in a short time by the moonlight.
"Huh? Why is there a candle flame in this room? Li Chunhai was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly leaned against the window, dipped his fingers in some saliva, and then smashed a hole in the paper window and looked inside.
Li Chunhai took a closer look and saw a little girl in yellow clothes in the room, squatting on the ground and eating a piece of steamed buns. Li Chunhai looked at the girl's appearance, she should be in her early tens, and she was still eating steamed buns here so late, Li Chunhai was sure that this must be the maid in the room.
Thinking that the other party was just a maid, Li Chunhai was not afraid, and walked straight to the door and gently pushed it away. When she pushed the door, she immediately startled the girl inside, and hurriedly whispered: "Who is at the door!" ”
"Don't be afraid!" Li Chunhai got into the door with his whole body and whispered, "I'm also a villain in this family, and I came here to steal food." ”
The girl saw that Li Chunhai was wearing the clothes of the Su family's subordinates, and the other party had a beautiful face, so she didn't look like a bad person, so she said, "You are also here to steal food?" ”
"Hehe" Li Chunhai smiled lightly, then tiptoed to the edge of the cupboard, took out a big white steamed bun from it, took a bite hard, and muttered while chewing: "Yes, I was busy all day today, and I didn't have enough to eat at night, so I couldn't stand it anymore when I was really hungry, so I came here to steal something to eat." ”
When the girl saw Li Chunhai eating steamed buns, she basically believed Li Chunhai's words. But she finally asked, "Are you new here?" How come I've never seen you before? ”
"I'm a companion student who just came yesterday, and it's normal that you haven't seen me." Li Chunhai had already stuffed a whole steamed bun into his stomach at this time, but he still felt a little hungry. Then, she took out two steamed buns from the cupboard, and when she saw that the little girl was still in place, she decided to leave first. In this way, it was discovered that there was a lack of steamed buns here, and he could also push the pot to this girl if he found out.
So Li Chunhai stuffed the steamed bun into his arms, and felt that he was a little sorry for the little girl when he left, so he said: "Little girl, I'll go first, you can eat faster, or take it back to eat directly, but don't keep squatting here, it's not good to be discovered." ”
"yes, okay." The little girl glanced at Li Chunhai fixedly, then responded lightly, and sped up the speed of eating steamed buns. Seeing this, Li Chunhai hurriedly walked out of this room, tiptoed back to his room, and then, she ate two steamed buns, and then fell asleep comfortably.
"What a strong sun...", a strong light once again shone through the window and shone in Li Chunhai's eyes. She was suddenly awakened by the sunlight and screamed, "Oh my God, I slept again!" ”
With a nervous mood, Li Chunhai hurriedly came to Su Zimo's room, only to see Su Zimo standing at the door with a cold face, staring at himself who was trotting over with a pair of cold eyes.
"It's over, I will definitely be swept away by the eldest young master!" Li Chunhai pit his head, walked up to Su Zimo, and said timidly: "Young Master, I slept again, please be merciful and spare me again..."
"You..." Su Zimo really didn't know how to express his anger towards Li Chunhai, but after thinking about it, he quickly suppressed his anger and said coldly to Li Chunhai, "You were late again today, I should have expelled you from the Su family, but considering your effect on Zijin, I decided to spare you this time." ”
"Thank you, young master, for your kindness!" After hearing this, Li Chunhai was so excited that she almost knelt down to thank the eldest young master, but she suddenly thought of what Su Zimo had just said about her role in Zijin, so she hurriedly asked, "Young Master, you just said that you considered my role in Zijin?" But what happened to the second young master last night? ”
"Well, that Zijin actually read the Analects for almost two hours last night." Su Zimo looked at Li Chunhai and said, "I really don't know if you used a method to make Zijin take the initiative to study, it seems that it is a very correct choice to invite you to be a scholar this time." ”
After Li Chunhai heard this, he thought that this Su Zijin could also be regarded as keeping the contract, and after listening to his story, he could still go to study as agreed. This made Li Chunhai see hope for the next work, and estimated that as long as he didn't be so greedy and late, he should be able to stay in this Su family for a while.
"What are you doing there?" Su Zimo looked at Li Chunhai thoughtfully, and reprimanded loudly: "Don't you want to be this scholar anymore, why don't you hurry up and come over to spread paper and polish ink for me?" ”
"Oops" Li Chunhai hurriedly came back to his senses and shouted: "Big young master, don't shout so loudly, the little ones will come to work." ”
