In the dilapidated hall, the old man Wang and the old woman made a special trip to light two candlesticks, and even took out the melon seeds that had been prepared in advance today, and began to place them on the round table in the hall to entertain the pork seller's father and son.

Although these two fathers and sons are not nobles, they are also slightly wealthy masters on the street, at least if they climb up with this pork seller in the future, they will naturally have less silver to buy meat or something from him in the future.

Moreover, the son of this pork dealer was also polite for several weeks, and after entering the house, he personally gave him two gift boxes, and also called an uncle affectionately and politely, the more the old man Wang looked at it, the more he felt that the pork jerky son was pleasing to the eye, and the smile on his face was really strong and undulating, and it was difficult to hide his joy.

After Xu Guichun entered the hall, he saw a few days of laughter, and the atmosphere was lively and harmonious.

Seeing her enter, the eyes of several people present also fell towards her, and in an instant, the slightly young man who was sitting there had a brightness in his eyes, and the whole person was slightly restrained.

"Gui Chun, you're here." Old man Wang hurriedly got up, personally led Xu Guichun to the pork seller's father and son, and said with a smile: "This is my daughter Guichun." ”

As he spoke, without waiting for the reaction of the pork seller's father and son, he hurriedly began to introduce Xu Guichun, "Guichun, this is the Uncle Mo I mentioned to you a few days ago, and this Mo Gang Mo Xian's nephew. ”

Xu Guichun's expression moved slightly, his eyes looked at Mo Gang, and he smiled slightly stiffly.

She was a little beautiful, although she was born poor, but she also stayed in the Gaomen family for a few years, and her skin was also white, although the whole person was not good-looking, but she was also beautiful and jasper, which was eye-catching.

Mo Gang became more and more restrained, although he was a rough man, but he rarely had contact with women, not to mention, the purpose of coming this time was really very special, and when he saw Xu Guichun looking at him like this, he became more and more restrained in his heart, so he had to lower his eyes, and called Xu Guichun a little embarrassed, "Miss Xu." ”

Old man Wang took all of Mo Gang's reactions in his eyes, felt that there was a drama in his heart, and his face was even more smiling, and then he pushed Xu Guichun slightly and sat next to Mo Gang.

Mo Gang became more and more restrained, and his cheeks were slightly red.

Old man Mo sneered and joked at his son: "I kill pigs and slaughter meat all day long, but I see that your kid is very profitable." Why is it that when I see this Miss Xu now, I am like this! ”

As he spoke, his voice was raised, and he said, "You stupid man! Why don't you pour a cup of tea for Miss Xu. ”

Mo Gang hurriedly reacted, and immediately reached out to pour tea for Gui Chun, but because he was too restrained and excited in his heart, the tea filled the cup and flowed on the table.

He was startled, and immediately apologized and wanted to wipe the wet table in front of Xu Guichun for Xu Guichun, but his movements were slightly hurried and rude, and he completely knocked over the tea cup in front of Xu Guichun.

Suddenly, the tea flowed out, instantly wetting Xu Guichun's dress.

Mo Gang was startled, the whole person stood up, and immediately subconsciously reached out to wipe Xu Guichun's dress, but as soon as his hands were about to touch Xu Guichun's dress, he suddenly reacted, and his hands immediately froze in the air.

Xu Guichun was extremely embarrassed, and Mo Gang was also extremely embarrassed.

Old man Mo immediately scolded Mo Gang, and Old Man Wang hurriedly started to play round, and then asked Xu Guichun to hurry back to the house to change clothes, don't catch a cold.

This episode, although it was embarrassing and hasty, but in Xu Guichun's eyes, he felt that Na Mo Gang was like a stunned youth, although he was not as noble and elegant as the person before, but he was also honest and loyal, and he looked a little passable.

After returning to the house to change dresses, when I returned to the hall again, my mother had already cooked the meal, and several people sat around a table and began to eat.

Outside, the sky had already sunk, the cold wind was blowing, and the sound of swaying trees could even be heard outside the door.

During the whole night's dinner, several people ate slowly, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious, Old Man Wang and Old Man Mo were also very happy.

After the meal, the night was dark.

Xu Guichun was already sleepy.

When he forcibly cheered up to bid farewell to Mo Gang's father and son, while Old Man Mo and Old Man Wang were still greeting, Mo Gang suddenly mustered up the courage to walk towards Xu Guichun, and then stood quietly beside her, and handed her a small brocade box with a little restraint.

Xu Guichun was stunned for a moment and did not reach out to pick it up.

Mo Gang was a little nervous and a little embarrassed.

The old woman standing on the side hurriedly urged, "Gui Chun'er, Master Mo made a special trip to give you a gift, so don't accept it quickly." ”

Xu Guichun's expression moved slightly, and then he reached over slightly, accepted the brocade box, and then raised his eyes to look at him, and said in a gentle voice: "Thank you." ”

Mo Gang stretched out his hand and scratched his head, his honest nature was vividly displayed, and then he didn't say anything more, and immediately retreated to Old Man Mo's side, and then left with Old Man Mo.

Old man Wang personally said goodbye, and after sending Mo Gang and his son out of the hospital, he slowly turned around and came back.

"Gui Chun, what do you think of Mo Gang?" Old man Wang didn't like to lie either, and immediately asked straight to the point.

Xu Guichun's heart sank slightly, but he didn't speak.

The old couple both stared at her, seeing that she had been silent, but they were slightly anxious.

The old woman hurriedly said: "Gui Chun, my mother sees that Mo Gang is also honest, if you really follow him and live an ordinary life, it is also very good." And your father also told your Uncle Mo that if you get married, you will definitely bring Quan'er over. Your Uncle Mo and Mo Gang did not object, and said that they would take care of the whole child together. Gui Chun, this Chu Jingzhong, it's rare to find such a good family, if you hesitate, you will miss it. ”

The old woman's words were serious, and they knocked on Xu Guichun's heart word by word, which was really uncomfortable.

"Mother, Mo Gang is very good. My mother asked me to think about it first, I can't meet today, and I will fully accept him today. ”

Xu Guichun sighed and said in a low voice.

The old lady knew what she wanted, and she didn't say anything more, but just asked her a few more words, and then let her go back to the house.

The next day, the weather suddenly improved, and early in the morning, there were red wisps in the sky, which was extremely difficult to see.

Mo Gang did not go out with his father today, but only invited Xu Guichun to go out on the street.

Xu Guichun didn't want to go, but after all, he couldn't resist his mother's nagging, so he had to go out shopping with Mo Gang.

Throughout the day, Mo Gang was considerate and took great care of her, and when she came home at dusk, she had already held a lot of gifts in her arms, whether it was a jacket or gloves, whether it was a hairpin or a new shoe, everything was available. Even, Old Man Mo personally came over to send more than ten catties of pork.

Xu Guichun's heart was also slightly warm, it was rare to be so concerned in this life, and he was moved in his heart after all.

It's just that after returning to the house, her son was inexplicably angry, and she ignored her no matter what, she had to sigh again and again, and said helplessly: "Quan'er, my mother does all this for you." When you are older, you will be able to understand your mother's painstaking efforts. ”

After these words fell, he said no more, but after wiping the unconscious woman on the couch again, he sat down under the oil lamp and sewed again.

The night was dark. The night breeze outside the house also suddenly blew up.

Not long after, in the silent atmosphere, there was a sudden sound on the main couch not far away.

Xu Guichun was slightly stunned, and subconsciously raised his eyes, and saw that the woman on the couch not far away actually moved her hand slightly, pulling the futon, and the beautiful face of the city, although it was still slightly pale, but the eyes that had been tight for several years gradually began to open.

Awake?

Xu Guichun was shocked, and his complexion changed suddenly, and the surprise was intense.

She hurriedly called, "Dad, mother, come on, this girl is awake." ”

As soon as these words fell, he immediately walked quickly to the main couch not far away and sat down, and then looked at the woman on the couch with a surprised smile, and called out a little nervously, "Girl? ”

A candle flame flickered slightly on the desk not far away, and the dim light and fire filled the room around, hazy and gray, but it could not dispel all the darkness in the room.

The atmosphere, silent and depressing, as if something was tense, and looking around, in addition to the surprised and strong smile of the strange woman in front of the bed, there was only the dilapidated window edge blown by the night wind.

Yes, rundown.

Sihan's pupils shrank by half, and his pale complexion gradually increased a little colder. She didn't say anything immediately, but a moment later, there were a few hurried footsteps outside the door not far away, and when she subconsciously raised her eyes to look sideways, she saw two people pushing the door and trotting in.

The cold wind came in through the open door.

Sihan shuddered suddenly, and Xu Guichun hurriedly said, "Daddy, hurry up and close the door of the house, don't leave the girl cold." ”

Only then did the old man Wang react, and immediately turned back, and after closing all the doors of the house, he trotted over and stood in front of Sihan, looking at her as if he was looking at a rare thing.

The eyes of several people were full of surprise and interest, but in those pairs of pupils, there was a little scrutiny and scrutiny.

Being stared at like this, Sihan was displeased, but he was about to speak, but he tried hard, but it was difficult to open his mouth, let alone speak.

She was stunned, she really didn't expect that she was so weak now, even so weak that she couldn't even open her mouth, let alone speak. A fight that night was hideous and ferocious, and now when I wake up, those memories are still vivid, clear and vivid.

She didn't know how the battle ended, let alone the outcome, at this time, she had too many doubts and questions in her heart, and she wanted to throw them out for people to answer, but this time she couldn't say a word, let alone ask questions.

Her brow furrowed, and her face darkened.

Xu Guichun stared at her a few times, and asked with a little worry: "Girl, is there any discomfort in your body?" ”

As soon as these words fell, Sihan didn't say anything for a while.

Xu Guichun and his father and mother also noticed the difference, several people looked at each other, and each of them also sighed a little.

"Mother, the girl hasn't eaten raw for a few days, you go to the kitchen first and bring some porridge, and let the girl eat some porridge first."

The old woman nodded slowly, and turned to leave.

Old man Wang also shook his head helplessly, and after asking Xu Guichun to take care of him, he also turned around and left.

Xu Guichun sat quietly on the edge of the couch, her eyes were as soft as possible, for fear of disturbing Sihan, and seeing Sihan's eyes full of coldness and scrutiny, she explained in a low voice: "Girl, don't be afraid, we are civilians in Chujing, and we saved you in front of the house a few days ago." The girl has been having a high fever for the past few days, and this time she finally recovered, and if she recovers, she will definitely be blessed if she does not die. In the next few days, the girl only needs to be here to cultivate, if the girl wants to leave when, we will not stop her, the girl can do it herself. ”

Her voice was extremely gentle, without any sharp edge.

After these words were finished, the old woman had already brought the porridge into the house.

Xu Guichun hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, and said to Sihan with a little embarrassment: "The cold house is ugly, and there is nothing good to entertain the girl." I hope that the girl should not dislike this clear porridge, eat a little more this time, and you can also be at the bottom. ”

As soon as these words fell, his fingertips moved slightly, and he immediately scooped a spoonful of porridge with a spoon and fed it to Sihan.

Sihan's eyes were cold, and he didn't move.

Xu Guichun's hand was frozen in mid-air for a long time, and finally withdrew his hand and came back, smiling embarrassedly, "It's okay for the girl not to eat the porridge at this time, if the girl is hungry and wants to eat the porridge, just tell me." ”

After speaking, he slightly put the porridge on the low table next to the couch.

During the whole process, the old woman also stood aside to take in the view, her expression also changed slightly, her eyes fell towards Xu Guichun, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Guichun, you come out first, my mother has something to say to you." ”

Xu Guichun was slightly stunned, nodded, and just followed the old woman out of the house, he saw his father also standing not far from the door.

Her expression moved slightly, but she didn't speak, and after the door of the house was completely closed, she walked slowly to the old man Wang with her mother, and said slowly: "Daddy hasn't gone back to the house to rest?" ”

Old man Wang's face was full of anxiety, "Gui Chun, the woman in this house may not be able to stay for a long time. ”

Xu Guichun lowered his eyes and did not speak.

The old woman also hurriedly said: "Yes, that woman has a very temper, not smiling, when I look at her eyes, she is extremely sharp, it is estimated that it is not easy to provoke." Moreover, as you can see, she can't speak, she is a mute, and this kind of person who stays at home for a long time must be a burden and a curse, and if this woman thinks that we are not well entertained and angry with us, we will also be unable to cope with it.

Xu Guichun's expression fluctuated, and deep in his heart, it also added a little complexity.

The woman on the couch looked extremely fierce, cold and inexplicable, giving people a sense of prudence and majesty for no reason, and she really couldn't speak, like a dumb person, but the woman's full of bearing and majesty, I think naturally she shouldn't be a thief.

Moreover, although the woman was awake, she was lying on the couch and could not move, and if she was really sent away by them at this time, would not let her die.

Xu Guichun had a little helplessness and pity in his heart, and his brows were furrowed very tightly, and he didn't say a word.

"What are you doing in a daze. You listened to what I said to your mother. Old man Wang spoke again, and his thick voice once again broke the silence around him.

Xu Guichun came back to his senses at this time, and raised his eyes slightly to look at the old man Wang, "The rescue has been saved to this place, and it doesn't hurt to let that girl stay here for a while." Our family is surrounded by four walls, maybe when the girl is healthy, maybe we don't need to take the initiative to send it, she will leave on her own. ”

As soon as these words fell, seeing that Old Man Wang was about to speak again, Xu Guichun hurriedly said: "It's getting late, Daddy and Mother rest early, I'll go back to the house." After saying that, without further delay, he immediately turned around and entered the house.

The old man and the old woman stood in place, so annoyed that they stomped their feet, and after a while, they finally forcibly pressed their minds and said no more. The girl in the house, although it is colder, but at present it is really not good or bad, and she is a mute, in case she is expelled from the house, she may not be harmed by someone, so, although they have not killed anyone, but they are also the murderers who indirectly harm others, if this thing happens, it is extremely unlucky.

His thoughts were churning and swaying, and Old Man Wang's face sank terribly.

The two stood in place for a long time before the old woman turned her eyes to look at the old man and said in a low voice, "Human life is great." Just listen to what Gui Chun says, I think that girl has an extraordinary temperament, even if she can't stay in the place where our family is surrounded by walls, she will take the initiative to leave without us rushing when the time comes. ”

Old man Wang was suddenly annoyed: "The kindness of a woman! How did you know that the girl would leave on her own initiative? What if the girl doesn't take the initiative to leave? Wouldn't our family have one more mouth to eat rice? Gui Chun dragged Quan'er back this time, and he had been eating white rice at home for a few months, and now he has added another one! Do you think our house is a place for charity soup kitchen? ”

The scolding voice was a little loud, even when the night wind blew, and it did not blow all his words away.

Xu Guichun frowned slightly, but he was helpless, he just stood by the door for a while, and then came back to his senses, but when his eyes just fell on the face of the woman lying on his back on the couch, he saw that the woman was tilting her head sideways, staring at her with complex and heavy eyes.

The two looked at each other just right, one was cold, and the other was surprised.

Xu Guichun was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly stood forward in front of Sihan's couch, and said embarrassedly: "My father and mother are that temper, although they like to nag, they are also kind-hearted. Don't think too much about it, just stay here. ”

As he spoke, he smiled at Sihan.

Sihan's pupils shrank, his heart fluctuated, and a complex and hideous feeling spread wantonly in the bottom of his heart.

Now that she sees this, she understands the so-called causes and consequences. She was seriously injured and comatose that night, and was rescued by the family, and now she finally woke up after a few days of high fever, and she has become a parasite for this poor family.

She never expected that her dignified eldest princess of Tanglin would also fall into the so-called eating white rice in the mouth of others, but even if she was full of resistance and dislike, she couldn't really refuse.

Her brows furrowed more and more, and her pale face was distant and cold, and she did not speak.

She was not angry and self-assured, and her body was full of strong cold and evil spirits, which made Xu Guichun feel a little frightened.

After only a moment, Xu Guichun didn't dare to look at it again, immediately lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Girl, rest more, I'll go over to sew clothes first." ”
