Chapter 141: The Night Before the Storm
After Song Jinyao got everything done, she pulled Gu Chao over and let her eat breakfast on the table.
"Eat, you're here so early, you definitely haven't had time to eat."
Gu Chao was already a little hungry, so he didn't use chopsticks, so he directly stuffed a piece of pastry into his mouth with his hand and chewed it.
Song Jinyao also laughed at her for being so flustered, and wiped the scraps from the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
"With chopsticks, your hands are dirty."
Gu Chao said with a smile while chewing.
"It's okay, when we divided pastries in the mountains, it was all like this, I was used to it, besides, if I ate something with my hands, I would get sick, so with my physique, can I still practice martial arts?"
Song Jinyao listened, but still handed him a pair of chopsticks, and then sat down to eat together.
Song Jinyao chewed two bites and said again.
"You guys are really free and happy there, everyone must be like brothers and sisters, I really want to go to your place."
Gu Chao was excited when he heard it.
"Okay, okay, we helped your father, your father should have a good impression of the Qingzun Pavilion now, right? Let you go and play with us, your dad won't refuse, right? ”
Song Jinyao puffed out her cheeks and tilted her head uncertainly.
"I don't know, let's talk about it then, you've been very busy lately, haven't you? When I'm free one day, I'll bother again. ”
Then Song Jinyao swallowed the food in his mouth and continued.
"Gu Chao, I think fate is really wonderful, I think when you first came to my house, I was still very resistant to you, I didn't expect us to become such good friends now, speaking of which, you tolerate me, if you change someone else, I can't stand me anymore."
"I could see at a glance that you were a paper tiger, I wasn't so careful, and you're a good girl, you don't have to be so presumptuous."
Song Jinyao shook his head.
"I'm not a good girl, my dad is already so protective of me, but I still don't know how to clean myself, I want you to help me at the beginning, I lost my temper with you on the way, and now I think about it is really bad."
"Your self-preservation, which is not called not understanding, is your father's overkill, if you know such things, you will not be easily deceived by him, Erma Ayi deceived you, it's not your fault, now you just need to take good care of yourself and live a good life in the future."
Song Jinyao smiled with relief.
"You always reassure me, if only you were my sister."
Gu Chao also smiled warmly at Song Jinyao.
"I don't have sisters, you can be, who said sisters have to be related by blood? There are also mutual opposites between sisters, but as long as we can warm each other, we are sisters, and we have to be good. ”
Song Jinyao put down her chopsticks and came over to hold Gu Chao's hand.
"Thank you, you can always be by my side and help me every time I am about to collapse, I think you must be God, too lucky for my life, I have been trapped in this small courtyard for so many years, and finally have such a good friend as you."
Gu Chao was a little embarrassed by what he said, so in order to divert her attention, he first ate a piece of pastry, and then said.
"Don't patronize and talk, you also eat this pastry, although it is delicious, but if you eat a few more pieces, it is a little sweet and greasy, drink tea!"
Gu Chao personally poured her another cup of tea.
Song Jin took the teacup and said.
"Let me tell you, my father was supposed to come back today, but today he sent someone to seal a letter and came back, saying that there are still things to deal with over there, at least this evening will be rushed back, or the two of us will go out to play?"
Gu Chao wanted to agree to come down, but since he was afraid that Song Jinyao couldn't go out easily, and besides, Ling Zhuo sent her here today, the original intention was to let her not hang out on the street, so as not to be seen by Erma Ayi's people, if the two of them went to the street together, wouldn't it just be possible to catch them all?
"Don't, they asked me to come to you today because they have something on the street, let me not go out to hang around, or I will teach you a few tricks of self-defense, so that in the future, if you are in danger alone, you can also protect yourself."
In order to divert Song Jinyao's attention, Gu Chao hurriedly thought of a new gadget for her.
Song Jinyao's eyes lit up at first, and then slowly dimmed.
"Perhaps...... Maybe I can't learn, you see, although I look slender, but after so many years of doing it here, my body bones have long been brittle, and I can't stand those twists and crooked. ”
"Oh, it's not for you to fight, it's just for you to be able to protect yourself when you're in danger, it's not for you to dance with knives and guns, besides, we have some unique skills in Qingzun Pavilion, and it's not easy to pass them on to others."
Song Jinyao shook her sleeves.
"I'm going to change into lighter clothes now, or it's going to be a trouble wherever this silk sara skirt is hooked."
"Wait, you haven't used your breakfast, just eat these two pieces, you can't eat it?"
Song Jinyao replied as she walked behind the screen, opened the big wooden box and rummaged for clothes.
"Don't worry about this, my family's maidservants, all of them are idle at home, they are all idle flowers, and within two hours, they will serve me something to eat, I often only taste a little bit, otherwise I would have become a big fat girl."
"Since it's a maidservant girl, why don't you do something in the house? How can it be idle? ”
Song Jinyao said with a belt behind the screen.
"Think about it, everyone has to serve the master, but how many masters are there in my family? My dad was always outside, and he was greeted by the guys in the shop, my mother......... Not to mention, there are no other aunts or children at home, just me, so they have to come to serve me, but I can't eat much by myself for three meals a day, so even the kitchen is resting, and the pantry is also resting. ”
"Then your dad doesn't know how to cut some people out? It's a waste for so many people to stay here, and it's also an expense to open silver. ”
Song Jinyao walked out from behind the screen, at this time she had already replaced the delicate big skirt she had changed into in the morning with a lighter small skirt, and she also checked her clothes belt to see if it was tightly tied.
"Many of my maids are poor girls bought from human teeth, you sell them, they have to endure hardships, stay in my house, idle is idle, so that they can survive, but my family often has something to do, my garden is so big, always have to serve flowers and plants, feed livestock, but to say that there is the busiest time, that is, my father brought other businessmen to the family for dinner, the time for the family to have a banquet, at that time, the whole house is lively."
"Your father not only has a set of business, but also a bodhisattva."
Song Jinyao sighed deeply as she opened the door, and said with a slight frown.
"Yes, in your eyes, he is good at everything, but he doesn't have time to spend with me, and he doesn't take into account my feelings, he just uses his will to keep me alive, and never asks me if I want it."
Gu Chao walked up, took her shoulder, and led her out of the room.
"Don't get into a dead end, so that your mood will be narrow in the future, and it will be fine in the future, isn't this me?"
Looking at Gu Chao's warm and firm eyes, the two girls looked at each other, smiled at each other, and happily played in the house.
