Chapter 40: Soft-heartedness

Just after the Lantern Festival, the number of people who made customized clothes was instantly less than half, and there were not many people who knew that they embroidered the village, and the business in the embroidery village was even more deserted at this time, except for a few sets of dresses that had not been done before, and there were no new guests for the time being.

Lu Linlang is not in a hurry, it is just that she has been recuperating well in the past two days, and she will have the strength to do more things when she is well, otherwise she will not be able to perform well even if there are guests coming to her door now.

The lark takes care of the embroidery village inside and out very neatly, and when she is idle, Lu Linlang will teach her a little something, and now the lark has also been doing chores in the store from the beginning, and slowly participated in making clothes.

She doesn't learn very fast, but fortunately, she is relatively stable, and Lu Linlang can also spare some extra time to do other more important things.

Just after lunch, Lu Linlang was a little tired, and said goodbye to the lark and went to the backyard to rest, as soon as the front foot entered the house, there was some movement on the back foot Murong Zheng, she looked back at the door, Murong Zheng was carrying a medicine bag in his hand, and there were two little girls behind him.

The two girls were thin and small, the clothes on their bodies looked a little cramped, and they were not tall, Lu Linlang felt a little familiar, and Murong Zheng had already walked towards her.

The two girls stood in the courtyard and didn't dare to approach, Lu Linlang was a little curious, "Why did you bring two girls back from outside?" What are you doing here? ”

"You don't remember?" Murong Zheng put the medicine bag in his hand on the windowsill, turned sideways and let the two girls behind him all be exposed in front of Lu Linlang, "You can take a good look at it." ”

Lu Linlang felt a little familiar when she looked at it from a distance, and when she looked closer, she suddenly remembered that this was not the little girl she helped save on the street that day? At that time, this girl also said that she could make clothes, and she also gave her a broken piece of silver, so that she could come to the embroidery village the next day, and she also released her pigeons, why did she follow Murong Zheng today?

"I ran into them when I went to the hospital to buy medicine just now, this girl still remembers me, and if she has to come along, I can't help it." Murong Zheng glanced at the two girls lightly.

Lu Linlang frowned and looked at the two girls in the yard, one was the one she saw on the street that day, and the other should be her sister, the two sisters looked very similar, she was originally very angry about this matter, but now when she saw these two thin little girls like monkeys, she couldn't say anything.

"What are you doing with me now? I've already recruited people, and I can't support them with too many people. ”

"Sister, I, we came here to make it clear to you, it wasn't that we didn't come that day, it was something at home, we couldn't come, and later, then I forgot the address you told me, until I met this big brother today...... "The girl who spoke was the girl I met on the street that day, that is, my sister, she looked bolder, and the other sister kept her head down, not daring to look up at them at all.

"What does it have to do with me what's going on in your family? I'll just be a good person, and you won't have to look for me. Lu Linlang said and turned around and prepared to go back to the house, looking at the pitiful appearance of the two girls, she was afraid that she would be soft-hearted after a while.

"Sister......" The little girl called her again, and trotted a few steps in front of her, stretched out a dirty little hand to her, spread out her palm, and there were a few copper plates in her palm, "These are the silver you gave me, only this is the only thing, I will pay you back first, and I will pay back the rest slowly later, my mother is dead, my sister and I can only buy her a straw mat, and we can't even afford a funeral, we didn't mean not to come, and we are not liars......"

The little girl's voice was still crisp, but the palm of the hand dragging the copper plate trembled slightly, although Lu Linlang didn't have much money, but these copper plates would not be deliberately coming back for her, but her eyes were glued to these copper plates at the moment, probably because of the cold wind, and her eyes were a little dry.

She blinked vigorously a few times, reached over and took the copper plates.

The little girl was relieved when she saw her take the copper plate, and looked up at her, "We will return the rest to you, thank you for saving me last time, my sister and I will never forget it." ”

After speaking, she turned around and returned to her sister's side, took her sister's hand, and the two little girls were about to leave together, but Lu Linlang couldn't help but stop them, "Wait a minute, do you have a place to live now?" ”

"Yes!" The little girl nodded, but her eyes were a little evasive, and Murong Zheng, who was standing on the side, snorted coldly, "Is the bridge cave also considered a residence?" ”

The little girl lowered her eyes and didn't speak, her fingers were clenched together, Lu Linlang glanced at Murong Zheng, and then walked a few steps towards the two of them, "I still have a house in the courtyard, you two can live here temporarily, it just so happens that I lack some people here to clean and cook or something, can you?" ”

"Sister......" The little girl's voice trembled a little, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked up at her and wanted to say something but couldn't say it.

Lu Linlang looked away from looking at them, "I'm not pitiful for you, it's just that my place here is a little too big, and I can't be busy alone, do you see these medicine bags?" I'm just sick and don't even have a decoction person, if you can do it, you can stay, if not, I didn't say it. ”

Murong Zheng looked at the medicine bag on the windowsill, who said that she didn't even have a person to decoct medicine, wasn't he going to the kitchen to decoct medicine for her? Looking at Lu Linlang's pretended blunt tone, this girl is really a knife mouth tofu heart, but it just so happened that she found two little girls to do chores in the yard, and he was also happy.

"We can, we can do it, sister!" The little girl nodded again and again, and then dragged a girl who was about the same age as her, and the two nodded together, their eyes full of longing.

Lu Linlang hugged his arms at this time, looked elsewhere and pretended to be careless, "Okay, that house over there, you go and clean up by yourself, if there is anything missing, come to me again, I have to go sleep for a while now, I have a headache." ”

As he spoke, he was about to turn around and go back, when he suddenly stopped, "By the way, what's your name?" ”

"My name is Qinghong, my sister's name is Lanyi, we all follow our mother's surname Bai, and my sister can call us by our name directly." Qinghong grinned happily, her eyes were shining, and her voice was exceptionally crisp.

"Okay, I've made a note of it, you guys go get busy." Lu Linlang returned to the room, and silently read their names again in his heart, the names are not bad, it seems that their mother is by no means an ordinary rural peasant woman, but unfortunately she was born at the wrong time and has passed away.

Murong Zheng was still in the courtyard, watching these two girls immediately roll up their sleeves and get busy, they still went to the kitchen first with the medicine bag, looking at Lu Linlang's energetic appearance just now, he was afraid that he had bought these medicines too much.

Qinghong and Lanyi were busy cleaning up the house in the courtyard outside, and the two of them were very neat, and the room was not big, so it happened that the two of them lived in the yard, and they cleaned the yard again.

When Lu Linlang woke up, it was already dark outside, she vaguely smelled the aroma of the food, and thought she was dreaming, got up and walked to the door, the yard was neat and new, even she thought that she hadn't woken up yet, and when she walked down the steps and walked around to know that it was true.

"Miss, you're awake, we're ready for dinner." Lu Linlang was still surprised by the yard, Qinghong ran out of the kitchen and looked at Lu Linlang with a smile.

Lu Linlang was slightly stunned and frowned, "Miss? Who is Miss? ”

"I see that the girls outside are called that, you took us in, you are our master, of course we have to call you Miss." Qinghong blinked, what she said was not unreasonable, but Lu Linlang was still very unaccustomed to it.

At this time, the lark from the embroidery village in the front yard came over, "Shopkeeper, the time has come, I'll go back first." Lu Linlang nodded and beckoned to her, and the lark glanced at Qinghong before turning to leave, when was there an extra girl in this yard?

"You can just call me the shopkeeper like she did, don't call me Miss, it sounds weird." Lu Linlang walked to the kitchen as she spoke, the aroma of the food really came from here, and it wasn't her dreaming.

Qinghong nodded repeatedly, "Okay, we've made a note of it, and we'll call you the shopkeeper in the future." ”

It was my sister Lan Yi who was busy in the kitchen, and when she saw Lu Linlang coming in, she looked a little nervous, and put down the food in her hand in a restrained manner, "Palm...... Shopkeeper, the meal is ready, you can eat it while it's hot. ”

"You're good at this, you make all these dishes?" Lu Linlang looked at the four dishes on the table, although it was not a big fish or meat, it looked very attractive in color and smelled very fragrant.

Lan Yi nodded, and lowered his head a little shyly, "I didn't do well, don't dislike it." ”

"It looks good, you all sit down and eat together, by the way, what about Murong Zheng?" Lu Linlang always thinks of Murong Zheng when he eats, as if he will be hungry if he doesn't eat with him.

"That big brother just went out and said you don't have to wait for him." It was Qinghong who accosted her, who stood far away, looked at the food on the table and swallowed, then turned her head away, as if forcing herself not to look at it again.

"Oh, then we won't wait for him, you two should come over too." Lu Linlang sat down at the dinner table, saw the two little girls standing far away, and frowned, "I said that I am not the master, and you are not subordinates, if you want to stay here, don't set up some strange rules for yourself in the future, I don't like it." ”

Hearing Lu Linlang say this, the two girls also hurriedly sat down at the table, but they looked very restrained, and the clothes on their bodies looked a little small, revealing a small section of their wrists, and they were already very shabby.

Lu Linlang glanced at them lightly, "Okay, let's eat." "There are two more people around me to eat together, and it seems that even my appetite has improved a lot.
