Song Gensheng is like a scholar most of the time, and occasionally he is not like it, not only is he not like it, but he is more obscene than a normal person.

At this moment, he entered the lewd man mode.

I didn't do anything all morning, I followed Xiu'er from a distance like an idiot, watching her pick wild vegetables with a bamboo basket, watching her walk through the forest paths humming slang songs, watching her quietly take off her shoes, soak her feet in the clear and winding stream, and comfortably raise her head and close her eyes, merging with the mountains and streams into a beautiful picture.

Song Gensheng looked at her quietly from afar, his eyes were obsessed, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, guarding her like the black bear monster under the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva loyally guarding the purple bamboo forest.

Seeing Xiu'er put on straw sandals, tidy up her clothes and go home, Song Gensheng hurriedly followed.

Until Xiu'er walked back to the village, met familiar villagers, and stopped to say hello, Song Gensheng quietly hid behind an abandoned earthen wall and poked his head out to sneak a glance at her.

A slap on Song Gensheng's shoulder, Gu Qing's head leaned over, followed his gaze, and said curiously: "Are you a thief or a thief?" ”

Song Gensheng screamed in fright, turned his head in horror and found that it was Gu Qing, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: "A righteous man and a gentleman will not be scary in the back." ”

Song Gensheng was a little embarrassed.

"I'm not a gentleman, I'm just an ordinary person, and sometimes I may not even be a human being." Gu Qing didn't care about the authenticity.

Song Gensheng was stunned for a moment and persuaded: "Whether it is a gentleman or an ordinary person, you should cherish your feathers, how can you slander and belittle yourself so much?" ”

"Fame is a shackle, I don't need it, don't change the subject, who are you spying on?" Gu Qing glanced at it and saw Xiu'er in the distance, Gu Qing suddenly said: "Well-dressed beasts, you do this kind of thing to peep at a little girl in broad daylight, shouldn't this kind of thing be done at night?" You are embarrassed to teach me to be a gentleman...... Tut! ”

Song Gensheng's face turned red: "I, I'm not a voyeur, I'm ...... It's protecting her! I'm afraid she'll meet the bad guys. ”

"The only bad guys in the village are the Ding brothers, they have been sold by me, who else are the bad guys?"

Song Gensheng didn't speak, only looked at Gu Qing with determined eyes.

Gu Qing gasped: "I'm a bad person? ”

Song Gensheng said slowly: "You yourself just said that sometimes you are not even human. ”

In addition to reading, most of the scholars have to practice lip service, and the words that scare people are so reasonable that people can't refute them.

Gu Qing thought of several words of counterattack in his mind, but after all, the lethality was too weak, so he was stunned for a moment, then looked up to the sky and smiled, pressed Song Gensheng's neck with one hand, pressed his face against the earthen wall and rubbed it......

After a while, Song Gensheng sat behind the earthen wall with an expressionless face and rubbed his face, and Gu Qing stretched his waist refreshedly.

"Have you drifted lately or do you think I can't carry the knife anymore?" Gu Qing squinted at him.

"You've rubbed me, help me figure out a way, how can I make Xiu'er admire me?"

Gu Qing was silent, it was this damn topic again, he was not good at it at all.

"I don't know what your courtship rules are, but what I do know is that sending flowers, candlelight dinners, walking under the moon, and playing the piano and singing love songs outside her door, doesn't it sound very earthy? Yes, it's dirty, but that's all I know. ”

Song Gensheng's eyes lit up: "Soil? How can it be soiled? I've never heard of it, it seems like a novelty...... If she was interested in me, how would she hint at me? ”

Gu Qing tried hard to recall the plot in the TV series in his previous life, and then said, "She...... I would probably say that the new tea has recently come on the market, so I invite you to her house for a cup of tea. ”

"Tea? No one in the village drinks this. ”

"It's okay to drink water, it's not what you drink...... I'm really convinced of a straight man of steel like you. ”

"What is a 'straight man of steel'?"

"I don't want to explain such a profound question to you, only one question asks you, why don't you just ask someone to propose marriage if you like Xiu'er? The dowry is a little richer, Xiu'er and her mother will definitely not object, right? ”

Song Gensheng shook his head: "I hope that the two will be happy before proposing marriage, if Xiu'er doesn't like me, I will marry her, isn't it bullying men and women?" This is not a gentleman's doing. ”

Gu Qing looked at him with a smile, Song Gensheng is simple, elegant, and has some pedantic nerdy temperament, Gu Qing is good to him not only because he is a friend, but more importantly, Gu Qing sees a lot of character qualities from him that he does not have, Song Gensheng is like a complementary existence, which just makes up for the shortcomings in Gu Qing's personality.

Xiu'er in the distance finally saw Gu Qing and Song Gensheng behind the earthen wall, walking quickly with a bamboo basket, and when they were five steps away from the two, they stood still and looked at Gu Qing timidly.

Gu Qing smiled and beckoned to her, and Xiu'er slowly approached.

Song Gensheng's expression suddenly became a little panicked, and Gu Qing could even hear his breathing sound getting a lot heavier.

Xiu'er squatted slightly towards Gu Qing and Song Gensheng, which surprised Gu Qing, Xiu'er's tutoring etiquette seemed to be doing a good job, and it was difficult to see such a well-informed girl in a barren mountain village.

"Xiu'er has seen the elder brother of the Gu family, and she has seen the elder brother of the Song family." Xiu'er said softly.

Song Gensheng was at a loss, his face was so nervous that he looked away, and he tried to hold his brother's shelf and hummed, his face was already red.

Gu Qing glanced at him and said with a smile: "Looking for me or looking for Gensheng?" ”

Xiu'er said timidly: "Looking for you." ”

"They are all neighbors in the same village, and they have something to say."

"I heard from the elders in the village that Brother Gu's pottery kiln summoned the laborers of the village to help with the work, and there was an honorarium, right?"

"That's right."

Xiu'er's face was flushed, and she lowered her head and whispered, "I, my mother said...... She also wanted to go to the pottery kiln to do things, and she said that she was also considered laborer, and she could do what men could do. ”

Gu Qing was stunned, she didn't expect her to make this request.

Seeing that Gu Qing was silent for a long time, Xiu'er hurriedly said: "I can also take on half of the labor, I work with my mother, and the remuneration can be less, okay?" ”

Gu Qing frowned, looking at Xiu'er's anxious appearance, presumably her family was already very poor, otherwise she would not have shown up to do hard work in the pottery kiln.

However, when I think that the people working in the pottery kiln are rough men, working shirtless all day long and talking about meat and vegetarian jokes, it is really inappropriate for Xiu'er's mother and daughter to be in that environment.

Song Gensheng next to him was also anxious, staring at him expectantly with a red face.

Gu Qing blinked and decided to send a favor, so he turned his head to look at Song Gensheng and said: "What about the pottery kiln, there should be no shortage of labor for the time being, and it is inappropriate for women to do that kind of rough work, Gensheng, do you want to arrange a job for Xiu'er's mother and daughter?" ”

Song Gensheng nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes!" Absolutely! ”

Xiu'er looked at Song Gensheng, and her eyes were grateful.

Gu Qing said with a smile: "For the sake of Gensheng's face, Xiu'er, you and your mother just cook for the laborers of the pottery kiln, I will distribute the food to you every day, Xiu'er, you work hard to go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, your mother and daughter can cook one meal a day, I will give you a reward of two cents a day, how about it?" ”

Xiu'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted Gu Qing to thank her, and when she raised her head, her face was already full of tears.

"Brother Gu family, your great kindness, my mother and I will remember it for the rest of our lives."

Gu Qing pulled Song Gensheng over: "Thank him, I didn't plan to invite someone, but Gensheng helped you say good things, so I changed my mind." ”

Xiu'er saluted Song Gensheng again: "Thank you, Brother Song." ”

After thanking her, Xiu'er confessed her guilt and jumped home with a bamboo basket, and she could see that she was very happy and couldn't wait to tell her mother the good news.

Song Gensheng said gratefully: "Thank you for helping me." ”

"You're welcome to mention it in passing."

Song Gensheng said embarrassedly: "In order to help me, in addition to paying the villagers a fee, you also have to pay an extra meal every day, which is a big expense." ”

"After all, it's a neighbor, I won't suffer if I give more benefits, and besides, someone will naturally help me pay the bills for the extra part I pay, so why not."

Song Gensheng was curious: "Who?" ”

Gu Qing looked at the mountain road at the entrance of the village, snuggled his chin, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Them." ”

At the end of the mountain road, two groups of people and horses slowly walked towards Shiqiao Village.
