Chapter 30: The Landlord
"Horses, you really dare to think that ordinary people can't have them." A trace of astonishment flashed in Yao Changsheng's eyes, and he looked at Tao Qini and said, this is really easy, he closed his eyes, he didn't know the whole picture, he couldn't think crankily because of her every word, it was easy to be taken away by her.
"The mule." Tao Qini looked at him and said hopefully, she was very persistent in wanting to have a means of transportation, as if the road was long.
Yao Changsheng pointed to the sky, "It's possible to sleep at night." ”
is not small, and it is more realistic for her to dream.
"What about the donkey!" Tao Qini said persistently.
Yao Changsheng looked at her persistent and said, "I can get it to count your ability." Holding his wrists with both hands, he said, "Admire, admire." The words fell and stared at the desolate mountains, and there was no hair, let alone horses.
Tao Qini's black and white eyes turned, "I'm thinking, this hunger and cold steal my heart." ”
"You ......" Yao Changsheng suddenly lowered his face and said, "How can you do this, no, no, how can you do such a despicable thing." He said sharply, "Don't do it, let alone have this idea!" ”
"Ahem...... Tao Qini was so shocked that she coughed, "Where do you want to go, there is a way to steal, and you won't do unrighteous things." ”
"That's not going to work, a gentleman should sit upright." Yao Changsheng looked at her with a straight face and said seriously, "You can't lose your basic backbone as a human being just because life is difficult now." These words came out of his mouth very weakly, and the wind bones were a fart in his eyes.
His heart was already as black as ink, maybe there were only five of them left in this world, and a rare kind thought came out, he didn't want her to be impulsive and do something he would regret.
"Jun ...... Son! Tao Qini said in a long voice, looking at him with deep meaning.
Yao Changsheng's dark eyes flashed lightly, looking at her with a little weak heart, avoiding her gaze, blinking, and saying in his heart: What am I doing with a weak heart? Don't say that they have murderous intentions, they just don't have murderous intentions, just a few untouchables, and if they die, they will die.
What is the kind heart, he looked at her frankly and said, "You may not understand that you are a gentleman, you have to be kind to others." ”
Without speculating for more than half a sentence, Tao Qini raised her eyes and watched the sky gradually darken, so she stood up and said, "Mother! He walked over to her and crouched down beside her, watching as she was doing the dirty laundry they had changed.
"What's wrong?" Shen tilted his head to look at her and asked.
"We're full of food and drink, shouldn't we wash up, I really can't stand it." Tao Qini pulled her hair in disgust and said, "It's too late, the water should be cold." ”
"Good!" Shen put his clothes on the pebbles, got up and went to find Tao Fifteen, who was collecting firewood to prepare for the evening, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Tao fifteen nodded when he heard this, returned to the bonfire with firewood and looked at Yao Changsheng and said, "Young Master Yao, take a step to speak." Then he pulled his son Tao Liuyi and the three of them out of the sky together.
After they left, Tao Qini directly took off her tattered clothes, jumped into the water, and swam back and forth in the water like a fish.
"Nil, come here." Shen beckoned to her who was spreading joy in the water.
Tao Qini swam over, and Qing Lingling's eyes looked at her, "What are you doing?" ”
"Comb your hair!" Shen Shi took the grate and said, looked at her sitting in the water with her back to him, and said, "It's a little painful!" ”
"I know, this hair hasn't been combed for a long time, it's already knotted." Tao Qini shrunk her neck and squeezed her eyes and said, "That mother's comb is too dense, doesn't there be a wide ruler?" ”
"No, it's dense enough to comb the fleas out of your hair." Shen carefully combed her hair, looking at her dry and yellow hair, and sighed distressedly.
"Mother, what are you sighing at?" Tao Qini asked with concern.
"Good hair, look at the present." Shen looked at her with gloomy eyes and said.
"Just take care of it." Tao Qini comforted her when she heard this.
"I just don't know when." Shen gently combed her hair through little by little.
"Mother, I'll do the rest by myself in the water." Tao Qini turned to look at her and said, took the comb from her hand, looked up at her and asked, "Mother, why don't you wash it?" ”
"I'll wash our clothes first." Shen's eyes were like this clear pool of water, filled with a faint smile, looking at her and saying gently, "You wash first, I'm not in a hurry." ”
"Alright then!" Tao Qini stuck her head in the water, continued to comb her hair, and when her hair was cleaned, she began to rub her body, as if she had withdrawn a layer of skin.
Tao Qini looked at her sunburned skin, "When will it turn white!" ”
"Don't think about it." Shen swam over and looked at her and said, the washed clothes were placed on the big stone one by one.
"Why? Covering will still turn white. Tao Qini wiped the water on her face and looked at her and said.
"We have been dealing with the land all our lives, how can we cover up in the wind and the sun?" Shen looked at her tenderly and said, "Silly girl." ”
"My mother never thought about changing the way of living." Tao Qini looked at her and asked curiously.
Shen looked at her with a frown and said, "Change the way you live?" How to change? ”
"What kind of life do you want to live?" Tao Qini asked expectantly.
"What kind of life do you want to live?" Shen looked at her and pondered for a moment and said, "Landlord!" The family has purchased more than 100 acres of land, so it is good not to worry about food and clothing. I couldn't have imagined that these untouchables were qualified to own land! By chance, when we meet Yao Gongzi, we can change to civilians, and we can buy land. ”
No wonder he spared no effort to help Yao Changsheng, all for the sake of planning for the future. This is also what they dare to think and hope for, and can do.
Tao Qini looked at her innocently and said, "You're not afraid that he will lie to you!" ”
"The son of a big family, how did he fall here, so miserable." Tao Qini looked at her with a smile in her eyes and said deliberately.
"No, although we were embarrassed when we saw him for the first time, he was better dressed than the rich families in the county." Shen Shi looked at her and thought about it again, "Look at the fine skin and tender meat compared to our rough skin and thick flesh, even if he exaggerates his family background, it is easy to help us change to civilians." He took a deep breath and said, "It's too difficult for us, and for Yao Gongzi, it's a matter of moving your mouth." ”
Tao Qini looked at her and smiled, but said in her heart: Hope! I don't want to guess, but I plan for the worst in my heart.
"Hehe......" Shen smiled when he heard this, "Come and I'll rub your back." ”
The mother and daughter rubbed each other's backs, washed them thoroughly, and changed into clean clothes that barely covered their bodies.
"Burn the fire higher, and I'll go and call them in." Shen looked at her and admonished.
Tao Qini nodded, and threw the dry firewood she had picked up into the fire.
