Chapter 12 Bonding
The moaning like a wounded baby beast is unbearable.
No matter how ruthless a person is, there will be a trace of kindness left.
Gu Jiayao walked into the alley, and for safety reasons, she was just standing at the mouth of the alley.
In the shadow of the alley sat a man, his body curled up, his face buried in his thighs clenched by his arms, and if he had a furry tail, he would have surrounded his body.
The tall man shrunk into a small ball.
It's as if someone has been abandoned.
His hair was in a messy bun and his hair was shaggy, Gu Jiayao put his hands behind his back and secretly rubbed his dress.
"Ah, it's the one who just saved people."
Xiaohong realized that even if he buried his face, there were still a few whip marks on his body.
Gu Jiayao walked over slowly, the person who could throw down the goods and jump into the sea to save people didn't seem to be bad people.
When he was whipped by the overseer, Gu Jiayao seemed to feel that the tiger was being bullied by Shiba Dog.
Extremely ridiculous!
Now the tiger in her sixth sense is a small group, which can be said to have a tiger in her heart, sniffing roses.
"Are you alright?"
Gu Jiayao asked softly, hearing the gurgling sound of a hungry stomach.
He groaned from hunger, not from the wounds of the whip marks.
The young man raised his head slowly, his wet eyes were moist and beautiful, with a little shame and confusion.
He has handsome facial features, but he has a pair of gentle eyes, which does not lower his appearance, but makes people close to him and wants to be good to him.
Gu Jiayao survived the attacks of beautiful men and stylish men in modern times, but in the end, she couldn't refuse the eyes of the young man.
"I still have a tael of silver, you can take it and buy some food."
Gu Jiayao gave him half of the silver that Jiang left for herself, but fortunately, she didn't give all the silver because of her beauty.
The young man said shyly: "I don't want it, I have hands and feet, I can make money!" Tomorrow I will be able to find a job to carry the goods, I will not eat for a day, I will not be hungry......"
His stomach rumbled like a table, and Xiaohong couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The young man's face looked even more shy, and his bronzed skin became red copper.
This is an ambitious person who is self-reliant and refuses to help!
He eats with his strength, and does not rely on his face, otherwise he will be angry at his appearance, and the little daughter-in-law who flatters him will be willing to provide him with a meal.
When the Great Yan Emperor conquered the world, many men died, so the emperor encouraged the remarriage of widows, and instead taxed widows who kept festivals for their deceased husbands.
There is no shortage of rich people in the city of Guangzhou, and there will be no shortage of rich widows.
He can make a soft meal...... Gu Jiayao snuffed out the ridiculous thoughts in her mind.
His eyes seemed to see through her thoughts, and his gentle expression was more aggressive.
It was just a flash, and Gu Jiayao wondered if she was wrong.
"Have you been working on the docks?"
"Hmm."
The young man nodded, braced his arms on the ground, and rolled over, "Thank you so much." ”
Gu Jia's eyes flashed, and he asked with a smile: "What did I do that deserves a word of thanks from you?" ”
"You spoke to the merchant before he came to his aid." The young man smiled gratefully: "I remember the kindness of the merchants, and the first good person should not forget it. ”
Gu Jiayao asked, "Have you ever read?" ”
"Just know a few words."
"Since you know how to read, why do you work as a coolie on the dock and not find a job as a secretary?"
"I like to transport goods, I only need to carry the goods on my back, unlike the secretary who needs to worry about a lot of things."
“……”
The corners of Gu Jiayao's mouth stiffened, "What a weird and strange idea." ”
The young man smiled shyly and clasped his clasps, "If you have something to contribute, even if you come to the dock to find me, I will definitely repay the favor." ”
"Have you ever repaid the favor for saving people?"
"No, I didn't."
"You are not afraid of life and death to save people and you don't need anyone to reciprocate, I just said a few words to the rich businessman, one does not pay money, and the other is not dangerous, I don't need you to reciprocate."
Gu Jiayao's voice was low, and she raised her hand to stop the young man from speaking, "My words are just a recognition of good deeds, not all people in the world are ruthless and indifferent, and those who save people are regarded as fools, and those who ignore people who fall into the water are orthodox." ”
"I can't jump into the sea to save people, and I have my own concerns, which doesn't prevent me from agreeing with your good deeds."
The young man's face turned red again from praise, this time even his ears were red.
Gu Jiayao happened to face the young man with a side face, and clearly saw the hairs on his red ears, which were fluffy and soft in the sun, and it seemed that his ears were soft.
"Since you work at the docks and want to be well-informed, I just have something to ask you, so you won't refuse to help."
"As long as I know, I must know everything, and I will say everything."
The youth replied earnestly.
Gu Jiayao pretended to look up at the sky, "You come with me, find a clean place, I'll ask you carefully." ”
She turned around and walked out of the alley, Xiaohong glanced back at the young man standing in place, and asked softly, "Will he follow?" ”
"Yes." Gu Jiayao said with certainty that he was a good person who knew how to repay his kindness.
But such a good person may not be rewarded.
Gu Jiayao was worried that he would be bullied because he was too simple and kind.
Obviously, she has only met twice, she still has a bunch of troubles that have not been solved, and she lives in Jiang's mother's house, but she worries about strangers who don't know their names.
"Miss, he really came along."
Xiaohong's face was pleasantly surprised, obviously Xiaohong's aesthetics were the same as Gu Jiayao's, thinking that the young man was a handsome man.
The young man followed Gu Jiayao not far away, although he had seen many young masters from rich and noble families, and he had also seen good scholars.
He was still amazed by the young man in front of him.
In addition to the fact that the young man's body was thin and short, only to his chest, the young man's facial features were extremely delicate, and his lips were full and soft, exuding a faint luster.
He may not be able to keep up with others, and for some reason he doesn't want to see the young man disappointed.
Rewarding the teenager is probably an excuse.
Since Gu Jiayao investigated Gu Xi's case, she naturally went to the wine shop in person.
In addition to selling wine and food, this wine shop in Dongcheng also has some snacks such as wontons.
Gu Jiayao was arranged by the guy to a relatively clean position, because it was not a meal, there were not many diners in the restaurant, and many tables and chairs were empty.
There were only two or three tables of guests.
"How many sons are there?"
"Three."
Gu Jiayao said casually, raised her eyes and motioned for the young man to sit down, "Three wontons, two drawers of steamed buns, and two side dishes." ”
She had to take care of her wallet.
After a while, the young man served the food ordered by Gu Jiayao, and the young man's originally straight sitting posture was slightly relaxed.
The aroma of wontons and buns hit his nose, and oh no, his stomach was even hungrier.
"Eat." Gu Jiayao pushed a bowl of wonton over, "When you are full, you have the strength to help me." ”
She thought that the young man was doing manual work, and the amount of food must be not small, so she picked up the wonton in front of her and gave him more than half.
The young man muttered, "No, I have enough to eat." ”
Gu Jiayao said confidently: "I lose weight!" ”
