Chapter 101: No Appetite Left
Li Guolou was in the small courtyard, and after running for more than ten minutes, he was so tired that he couldn't breathe, he felt that his body was not well, and his shortness of breath and chest tightness were completely different from his usual state. If you have an illness and injured your body, you have to take your time if you want to recover. Originally, I wanted to show off my martial arts foundation, but now it seems that I am still a peaceful person, and I can't afford to toss.
Seeing Xie Xiuzhu snuggling among the pillars, looking at him silently and affectionately, and not afraid of being seen by the servants, Li Guolou approached and said in a low voice: "It's cold outside, you go in, I've practiced, go to the kitchen for breakfast, where are you eating?" ”
Xie Xiuzhu rolled her eyes and said: "It's already like this, you still have to pretend, eat together!" After speaking, he handed a cotton coat to Li Guolou and asked him not to catch a cold.
Li Guolou looked at the kitchen room embarrassedly, and several servants were inside. He originally wanted to go in and eat with them as if nothing happened, did he want to live in the dead room of the "former old man Wei Wenshao" like the old man from now on?
Xie Xiuzhu saw through Li Guolou's thoughts, took his hand, and said, "Be generous, there are no outsiders here, let's go to the kitchen to eat, no one dares to look down on you." ”
Li Guolou glanced at Xie Xiuzhu, feeling ashamed, this should be what he said to Xie Xiuzhu, he and Xie Xiuzhu have been sleeping in the same room for two nights, but he still can't let go, and he doesn't dare to face the eyes of others.
Li Guolou got up freely, put Xie Xiuzhu's left hand in his arm, and said with a smile: "Second grandmother, you have to hook me like this in the future, so that it will be like a family." ”
Xie Xiuzhu was happy in her heart, and said coquettishly: "Foreign devils only walk like this." He said so, but he still hooked it firmly and walked to the kitchen room openly.
"Second grandma early! Little plum early! The people in the kitchen didn't seem to see Li Guolou and Xie Xiuzhu hooked up, and greeted each other first.
"Well, everyone's morning!" Li Guolou is full of style, but he has the style of a foreign devil.
"Godfather, you look good today, are you going out?" Wei Xiaoliu asked inappropriately.
Xie Xiuzhu said coquettishly: "Xiaolou has to rest for a day today, and he won't go anywhere." After speaking, he winked at Mama Xie and told Mama Xie that she was completely in control of the situation, and she was the eldest sister here.
Breakfast preserved egg and vegetable porridge, as well as Wowotou, Li Guolou ate sweetly, and smeared spicy sauce on Wowotou, this weird way of eating is incomprehensible.
Xie Xiuzhu asked strangely: "Xiaolou, what kind of way do you eat?" ”
Li Guolou said: "Oh, this is a habit I developed in the UK, the British use cheese to spread on the bread slices, I am foreign for Chinese use, I like to eat with sauce." ”
Xie Xiuzhu grabbed a nest head and said, "Then I'll try it too, I can eat spicy food, I'm from Sichuan, I'm not afraid of spicy!" ”
Eating and laughing: "Well, it's really different, I like it too." ”
Li Guolou glanced at Xie Xiuzhu, and did not expose her lies, she was sold to Huamanlou since she was a child, and she no longer knew where she was, but she only knew that the person who sold her to Huamanlou in the end was from Sichuan. The kind of person who picks out a smart and clever little girl from many girls and sells it for a high price should be a human trafficker, which is Xie Xiuzhu's father? Xie Xiuzhu confided in him and told him about his childhood, he just listened silently, he didn't tell Xie Xiuzhu his reasoning, and left some good memories for Xie Xiuzhu. Everyone has a different experience, and Xie Xiuzhu should be lucky because she survives adversity every time.
Li Guolou asked Wei Xiaoliu how he lied for him, and was there any loophole?
Wei Xiaoliu said: "Don't worry, godfather, your brothers will cover for you, everyone knows that there are many things in the yamen." However, Uncle Li can't make the decision when it comes to buying a house, and he wants you to draw a mortgage on the deed, and he wants you to do it yourself when you get well. Anyway, you've already paid the deposit, and people aren't afraid of you running away. ”
Li Guolou hated to go out today, but he didn't have the skills to get out, and said meaningfully: "Hey, everything is burning his eyebrows." ”
Xie Xiuzhu admonished: "Jin Langzhong will come later, you better be too peaceful." I'm panting when I'm running, and I'm embarrassed to say that I'm a kung fu master, where is it tossed like this, do you think I can't hear it? ”
Li Guolou glared at Wei Xiaoliu angrily, and even reported to Xie Xiuzhu what his godfather had done, he was still a godson, a white-eyed wolf inside and out.
Wei Xiaoliu was clever and said hurriedly: "Second grandma, I still have something to do, so I'll leave." ”
Xie Xiuzhu said without revealing it: "Don't worry, Xiao Liuzi, Xiaolou will mention you in the future, your marriage and Xiaolou and I will take care of you, so you can go on an errand." ”
Without waiting for Wei Xiaoliu to say words of gratitude, Wei Xiaoqi interjected: "Second grandmother, Xiao Lizi, and me." ”
Xu Biao pointed to his nose and said, "I, I want it too!" ”
The master ate, and the servants stood aside waiting for the dispatch, but they were not afraid of Li Guolou, listening to the wind is rain, and hearing that Wei Xiaoliu had benefited, Wei Xiaoqi and Xu Biao couldn't help but stick a shot.
Li Guolou glanced at Xie Xiuzhu, turned his head to look at a few servants, and said: "We will be a family in the future, although you are slaves, my second grandmother and I will take care of your life, but the girl's family, my second grandmother and I don't have a ready-made person in our hands now, you two have a suitable partner, I and the second grandmother will handle the marriage for the two of you, if you don't have to wait, the second grandmother and I won't play tricks." ”
As soon as the words fell, Wei Xiaoqi said: "Little Lizi, then buy two maids." Relying on ourselves that we have not landed in our own lives, we still have to come forward with the master. ”
Li Guolou saw that they were all young, and couldn't help but soften, and said: "Okay, after the sacrifice day of Master Wei, at the end of next year, I promise to let you hold the lady." But you two can't pick and choose, think clearly about your own conditions, don't be a toad who wants to eat swan meat. A little girl like Wen Shuijuan, you two don't have to think about it. ”
Wei Xiaoliu snickered on the side, his eyes showed a Mimi expression, the master found a good girl for him, and he already felt impatient.
Xu Biao said: "I'm not picky! ”
Li Guolou glanced at it and said, "Well, that's good, don't be nervous then, you can make great progress in speaking now." And said: "Little Seventh Son, what do you say?" ”
Wei Xiaoqi was helpless, why didn't he have Wei Xiaoliu's life, and said, "Just get by!" ”
Li Guolou sighed, what kind of family is this? Not long after the master's death, he was thinking about the wrong from top to bottom, and said that he would work for the master all his life, which was not a good thing.
After Jin Langzhong came, Xie Xiuzhu asked, "Xiaolou, do you want to listen to me sing?" ”
Li Guolou was startled, and hurriedly said: "Second grandma, it's not good here, let's sing in another place in the future." ”
Xie Xiuzhu said: "Fake serious, then what are we playing?" ”
Li Guolou hugged Xie Xiuzhu and said, "Then let me hold you and tell you a story, I am very good at coaxing children, and I promise that you will never get tired of listening to it." ”
Leaning on the bed, holding Xie Xiuzhu in his arms, Li Guolou told the two stories of "Snow White" and "Crystal Slipper", Li Guolou couldn't bear it, and said: "I will tell two more stories in the afternoon, and now my throat can't bear it." ”
Although Xie Xiuzhu was unwilling, she was afraid that Li Guolou would be too tired, so she said helplessly: "Well, Xiaolou speaks so well, why have I never heard it." ”
Li Guolou said: "These are forbidden books, many of them promote Western religions, and some insult the imperial power, so they are not allowed to be translated into Chinese, and the Qing Empire is too feudal." ”
Xie Xiuzhu said: "Well, I know, then you rest, I'll write down the story you wrote, and when you wake up later, you can help me see if the writing is good?" ”
Li Guolou didn't expect Xie Xiuzhu's cultural quality to be so good, and he could still write articles, he looked down on Xie Xiuzhu, who was born as a singer, no wonder the first-class ingot singer is worth a lot of money. After a while, he fell asleep, and at noon, Li Guolou was woken up by Xie Xiuzhu and told him to get up for lunch.
Li Guolou is still willing to go to the room next to the kitchen room to eat, the dishes are still hot, and there are more people, he has forgotten that he is a young master, and he is used to eating in a crowded place. Although Xie Xiuzhu was a little reluctant in her heart, her face did not show it, and she still followed Li Guolou's meaning, took his arm, and walked along the corridor to the dining room next to the kitchen.
After sitting down, Xie Xiuzhu said with affection: "Xiaolou, eat and watch the dishes cooked by Xie Ma, no worse than Xiaofang." ”
Li Guolou rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "Xiaofang! It's not that he was in a panic, thinking of Xiao Fang's fierce and stern expression, he felt that he had done something wrong, and he had no appetite all of a sudden.
At this moment, the gate in the courtyard "clanged", and the peaceful and unseemly life was broken.
Xie Xiuzhu was a little annoyed, and said dissatisfiedly: "Little Qizi, go and see who it is, if the neighbors come to borrow something, send it away, and do less if you borrow or not pay it back, here!" It's not your turn to be a good person. ”
Wei Xiaoqi was scolded by Xie Xiuzhu, and ran out to open the door, and after a while, Wei Xiaoqi ran back quickly, panting, and said with a pale face: "Second grandma, it's not good Chen Xiangfang is outside the door." ”
Everyone in the room was shocked, and Li Guolou and Xie Xiuzhu stood up quickly.
Xie Xiuzhu said hurriedly: "Did you let her in?" ”
Li Guolou said: "What did Xiaofang say? ”
Wei Xiaoqi looked at the two masters and said distressedly: "How dare I open the door and say that I want to talk to the master and let her wait for a while." ”
Xie Xiuzhu hurriedly said: "Then what should I do, what should I do?" This girl came to the door, Xiaolou, why don't you hide? ”
At the moment of crisis, Fang showed his true character as a hero, Li Guolou made a decision in an instant, and under his pale face, he said calmly: "It must be that bazi who has a cheap mouth, tell his sister, his sister's mouth is even cheaper, tell Xiaofang that I am here." Now don't be afraid, I'll lie on the bed, second grandma, you welcome Xiaofang into the house generously, don't lower your eyebrows and be afraid of her, you are not afraid of the shadow, just say that you saved my life, don't say anything else, I'll deal with it. ”
Li Guolou broke out in a cold sweat in horror, it really looked like he was seriously ill, and he ran quickly to the room, throwing Xie Xiuzhu aside, no matter what others thought.
