Chapter 7: "My Child"

Gu Huai thinks that he is not a soft-hearted person, but he is not a hard-hearted person, he seemed to think of something after hearing Luo Qing say that he no longer has a home, in the end, he left Luo Qing behind.

"But a little girl, I don't lack such a mouthful of food, just let her stay, and she can take care of my blind man."

That's what he told others, but what he thought of others was unknown.

On this day, Luo Qing's body was finally all right, and Gu Huai took her out.

"Brother, where are we going?"

Luo Qing and Gu Huai sat in the body of the ox cart, while Uncle Zhong sat in front and drove the cattle with a pole.

"Go to the city and run some errands."

Luo Qing didn't ask any more, but quietly pinched the corner of Gu Huai's clothes scattered on the side.

Gu Huai couldn't see it, but he felt very sensitive, knowing that it was Luo Qing and uneasy, but he didn't say anything, just let her grab the corner of his clothes, and he held the folding fan and shook it carelessly.

Entering Delan County, Luo Qing took the lead in getting off the ox cart, and then turned around to help Gu Huai down, and when he stood still, she reached out and gently smoothed the corners of his clothes.

And Gu Huai told Uncle Zhong to pick them up after noon, and when everything was ordered, he was led forward by Luo Qing.

Luo Qing found a shop that sold ready-to-wear according to Gu Huai's meaning, and as soon as he entered the store, Xiao Er greeted him with a smile: "Two guest officers, please inside, I don't know who is buying clothes?" ”

Before Luo Qing could speak, Gu Huai, who could listen to the side, said, "My child." ”

Just these few words made her feel that her whole heart had fallen into a honey jar, so sweet that she couldn't tell the difference between east and west, and when she reacted again, tears had flowed all over her face.

"Qingqing, Qingqing?"

Luo Qing wiped away the tears on his face in a panic and responded, "What's wrong?" Brother. ”

"I've been calling you for a long time, what's wrong? Isn't this garment appropriate? Gu Huai's eyes were not good, and Luo Qing was crying silently, he didn't know it.

Luo Qing shook his head, and then realized that Gu Huai couldn't see it, so he said, "No need, I have clothes, I ...... Let's just go over there and get it...... Don't spend this unjust money......"

She didn't dare to go alone, just because her good-looking brother said that, she thought, she has a home again, and her good-looking brother must be willing to go to Qiaotou Village with her to get clothes.

Besides, since she is going to follow her good-looking brother in the future, she has to plan a lot for her good-looking brother, and this ready-to-wear will cost a lot of silver.

Where did Gu Huai not understand Luo Qing's mind? It's just that I'm afraid of spending my own money.

He unfolded the folding fan, fanned himself unhurriedly, and deliberately shook his head and sighed: "Qingqing, this is disgusted that my blind man can't make much money?" ”

"Nope!" Luo Qing's head shook like a rattle, "How can Qingqing dislike my brother?" Although my brother has an eye disease, he is no different from ordinary people. ”

"That Qingqing ......," Gu Huai closed the folding fan and pointed to the ready-to-wear in the store.

"Then I'll see." Luo Qing's eyes swept over one dress after another, and finally chose a bright red cloth skirt, which had no extra decorations, just a very simple style.

The shopkeeper was busy and said: "The little girl's skin is like congealed fat, and she looks like red lips and white teeth, so she must look good in this big red dress." ”

Gu Huai smiled, noncommittal, and turned his head to ask Luo Qing on the side: "Qingqing likes it?" ”

Luo Qing put his hands around Gu Huai's arm: "Brother can see me at a glance." ”

Gu Huai smiled, but he didn't expect his unintentional words to be remembered by this child, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he just tapped the top of her hair with a fan.

"You......"

Luo Qing was a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly took the clothes from the small second-hand shop and went into the room to try them on.

As the shopkeeper said, being lined by the red dress, Luo Qing looked really as delicate as a flower, which made people's eyes shine.

The shopkeeper gave another good compliment to Luo Qing like this, and the women who came in to choose clothes also echoed it, this compliment made Luo Qing more and more embarrassed, but it made Gu Huai happy.

Can you be unhappy when your child is praised by others?

With a wave of his hand, he wanted to buy it for Luo Qing again, but he was stopped by Luo Qing so he only bought two sets of skirts and a set of underwear.

"Brother, don't buy it, let's buy some cloth and go back and make it ourselves, so that we can save some silver." Luo Qing persuaded.

Gu Huai also knew what to do, and he was afraid that Luo Qing would be uneasy about this, so he nodded and agreed, and finally bought two batches of red cloth that had not been printed with any patterns in this ready-to-wear store, a crescent moon white, a white cloth with a small pear blossom printed on it, and a blue cloth, saying that he would come to get it after finishing his errands later.

"Brother, where are we going?" Luo Qing took Gu Huai's arm and went in the direction he was pointing.

"I went to a teahouse and made an appointment with a friend." Gu Huai replied patiently.

When he arrived at the teahouse and sat down, Gu Huai asked for a pot of Longjing before the rain, but he shook his head and put down the teacup after taking a casual sip.

Luo Qing was curious, picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, pretending to shake his head and sigh.

Gu Huai was curious: "What are you sighing for?" ”

"It's not as good as the tea my brother makes." After speaking, Luo Qing laughed to himself.

Gu Huai couldn't help but laugh when he heard this laughter, and the words that came to his mouth turned into a circle: "Yes, who are your brother and I, of course it is well cooked." ”

It was the first time Luo Qing had seen Gu Huai smile like this, how could she say it? In the past, he was also smiling, but he couldn't say that he was sincere, but now this smile is different.

At this moment, a male voice sounded in front of their table: "Really? When I have the chance, I would like to try the tea made by Brother Gu. ”

As the words fell, a man in a brown shirt with a light beard remained.

Luo Qing immediately smiled, not knowing what to do, but listened to Gu Huai, who was sitting on her right hand, say, "Brother Lin is here, drink tea." ”

Luo Qing thought, it turned out that this man who looked like a literati was his brother's friend.

"Qingqing." Gu Huai took out a piece of broken silver from his sleeve and gave it to Luo Qing, "I want to talk to you Brother Lin about something, you go next door to buy some pastries and come back, see if there are sugar gourds sold outside, if you want to eat, you can also buy a bunch, don't eat too much, it's not good for your teeth." ”

Luo Qing took the silver given by Gu Huai and obediently responded to them one by one.

After the people left, Lin Dian Shi said: "Why did Brother Gu change to bring a little doll now?" ”

"Yes, it's just that someone is bullying my child, I wonder if Brother Lin can help me this blind man?"

Gu Huai still had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and one hand was still casually turning the teacup, but Lin Dianshi faintly sensed that he was angry.

It was the first time he saw Gu Huai angry.

He immediately put a smile on his face and said, "Brother Gu said directly." ”

Gu Huai picked up the folding fan on the table, opened it gently, and shook it one by one.

"I heard that there is a family surnamed Ma in Qiaotou Village, and the two have three sons under their knees, and they also farm and help people on weekdays, but recently they have obtained a huge amount of money, and Lin Dianshi will not check it?"

Lin Dian Shi is clear: "It's time to check it." ”

Gu Huai still refused to give up: "I heard that they have three sons in the family, and one son is preparing for the township test in the county, how good can his son be if this parent is misbehaving?" I'm afraid that even if I get in, I will be a moth to my enlightenment, and I feel that Lin Dianshi should also be a good student to talk to the above. ”

Lin Dianshi was surprised, he had never seen such an aggressive Gu Huai, and he didn't plan to let their family turn over.

"Okay, Brother Gu, don't worry, I'll track it down."

Gu Huai raised the teacup in front of him: "Gu has thanked Brother Lin here." ”

Lin Dianshi also raised his teacup: "Brother Gu, you're polite." ”

Then they both drank it all.
