Chapter 151: Like a Brother
Dong Wan shook his fan, looked at the team with some nervousness, and a little bit of anticipation, and said to Miss Feifei: "That's nature, they are heroes, how can I compare with them." ”
When Fei Fei saw him like this, she felt that she had said the wrong thing, and said with a sigh in her mouth: "Brother Wan, you can't be presumptuous, our girls in Lepeiyuan can get out of the sea of suffering because of you, you are also a hero, no worse than them at all!" ”
Dong Wan touched the top of Fei Fei's hair as if coaxing his sister: "Oh, my sister is really good at talking!" ”
The moment Dong Wan's hand touched the top of Fei Fei's head, Fei Fei's cheeks immediately turned crimson, and she lowered her head shyly.
However, Dong Wan didn't notice Fei Fei's unusual little daughter's delicate appearance, talking to Fei Fei in her mouth, her eyes and thoughts were on the returning soldiers.
Although he blocked most of his face behind the fan, he scanned each soldier with a pair of expectant eyes, for fear of leaving one behind.
But Dong Wan and Fei Fei kept watching the long line pass by them. Dong Wan carefully examined every face, and he could be sure that he didn't see Chu Shancheng.
What's going on, didn't it mean that Chu Shancheng went to Saddle to work as a meticulous worker, and cooperated with the soldiers of the border defense to win this victory?
What Shi Qian said, it won't be that the news is false.
Dong Wan watched the team pass by, took the fan that was blocking in front of him, and fanned himself.
Wouldn't it be better not to see it, what's going on with this inexplicable expectation of yourself?
His eyes drooped, the corners of his mouth twitched for a moment, and he smiled again, looking at Fei Fei next to him.
Pretending to be happy, he hugged Fei Fei's thin waist all of a sudden, unfolded the fan in a chic manner, and fanned Fei Fei: "It's not lively and beautiful, let's go?" ”
Fei Fei was suddenly hugged into Dong Wan's arms, and her body stiffened suddenly, but she just lowered her head and said softly, "Hmm." "Yes.
Dong Wan's mind was not on Fei Fei, so he naturally didn't realize her unnaturalness.
Instead, after sending Fei Fei home, Dong Wan's expression suddenly fell lonely.
While kicking the stones on the side of the road, I walked slowly home.
At first glance, others looked like they were full of worries, bowing their heads and eyebrows, looking a little tired and a little sad.
Dong Wanjia lives in the deepest alley of Lepei Garden, and when Dong Wan goes home, it is evening, and one by one the girls carry lanterns out of the house, their shoulders are half leaking, leaning on the door or the mouth of the alley, holding their arms.
Dong Wan is very familiar with every girl here, if they are involved in a lawsuit, or encounter troubles that cannot be solved, everyone has formed a unanimous understanding, that is, to find Brother Dong Wan of Lepeiyuan.
From lifting the pen and splashing ink, being a litigator to help them fight lawsuits, to playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, they are all involved in and can teach them.
Since Dong Wan came to this Lepei Garden, he has taken care of these sisters like the patriarch of these girls, and he has not asked for it.
Even more than half of the girls voluntarily signed a deed of sale with Dong Wan and became the girls under Dong Wan.
Dong Wan couldn't accept the deed of sale at first, so he took matters into his own hands and changed the content of the previous deed of sale, after Dong Wan bought the girls, it didn't matter to arrange their residences to solve the troubles they encountered, and Dong Wan also needed relief when his life was down.
Compared with the statement "deed of sale", to be more precise, Dong Wan raised a group of daughters and had to buy them with his own money.
But the girls all felt at ease that they sold themselves to Dong Wan, as if he could solve all their worries for them, and Dong Wan really couldn't refuse.
Dong Wan relied on the money that Shi Qian gave her and some of the money she usually earned as a lawyer, and there were more and more girls under her hands, and she had been hiding this matter from Mao Xiang and Shi Qian.
Otherwise, let them know, I'm afraid that they think she is unreasonable and nosy.
Dong Wan just saw that the girls were young, and it was really difficult for him to come out to make a living, and he thought that he could help the girls under his wing and protect them.
Dong Wan walked all the way, looking at a group of girls whose clothes were not well dressed, he felt uncomfortable, pulled the blouse for this girl, lifted the skirt for that girl, and made a joke or two, and unconsciously, his mood improved.
Dong Wan also seems to understand why Lepeiyuan Hutong can grow up and attract so many men to sing in this kind of place every night, this bright and delicate girl looks, just looking at it, she is also in a good mood!
When Dong Wan paced home, the lantern was already lit at the door of the house, and the small table in the courtyard was full of prepared meals, which were buttoned up with other plates to prevent it from getting cold, and the door was open in the side room, and the candlelight was lit.
It seems that Mao Xiang came back early to cook a meal, and he should be reading in the house.
Dong Wan's pace slowed down, entered the side room where Mao Xiang was, and knocked on the open door with a "pum", but his feet had already entered the room.
There were many books on the table of the impostor, and he relied on the faint candlelight, writing something with a pen, and his expression was focused and serious.
Knowing that he raised his head when he heard Dong Wan knocking on the door, his eyes were shaken by the candlelight, and he squinted in the direction of Dong Wan, because he hadn't spoken for a long time, and his voice was still a little hoarse: "I'm back, wash my hands and get ready to eat." ”
Mao Xiang said as he put the brush on the inkstone and put a bookmark on the book he was reading.
Dong Wan nodded and washed his hands in some silence.
When he came out, Mao Xiang was bending down and taking down the dishes that were buckled on top of the side dishes.
Because there are only two people to eat, Mao Xiang made it very simple, a bowl was placed in a square yellow rice cake, red dates were placed in it, and some honey and sugar were sprinkled on it.
Another small dish of Kung Pao chicken and a large bowl of pearl jade white jade soup.
There is also a small bowl of millet porridge in front of one person, in which some dates and lilies are placed, and the color is also very beautiful.
Since Mao Xiang recovered from his injuries in Nanjing and was demoted to the capital by the emperor, he has always been taking care of Dong Wan.
For more than a year, Dong Wan has really managed to keep his fingers from touching the spring water, in addition to washing his own clothes, he is also responsible for cleaning his house, and the whole yard is taken care of. Including the dog's small flowers to eat, drink, and Lazar, the vegetables and flowers grown in the yard.
Usually, Mao Xiang doesn't eat, drink tea, or go out to watch a play with his colleagues or the like.
Every day when I came out of Hanlin Courtyard, I went directly back to Lepeiyuan Hutong and took care of everything at home, just waiting for Dong Wan to come back and eat together.
Usually eating, Mao Xiang doesn't take the initiative to speak, just listening to Dong Wan talking about what he has seen and heard for a day, Mao Xiang eats the food in his hand quietly, and sometimes listens to Dong Wan's eyebrows dancing when he encounters any problems when he fights a lawsuit in the hall, Mao Xiang will also interject a sentence or two from time to time, no more, no less, because he is repairing the Liang Law, which is a good advice and strategy for Dong Wan when he is fighting a lawsuit in the hall.
The two of them are really like brothers, living a stable life, simple and comfortable.
