40 arms are warm
The next day, when the sky was still bright, Du Xiaoxian got up, put on his uniform, and carried a broom to the front yard to sweep the floor.
The sky was a soft milky white, and the east was already tinged with a hint of rose. The morning breeze is cool, with a little moisture, pouring in from the nasal cavity to the five internal organs, which is extremely refreshing. Du Xiaoxian stretched his waist and looked back at the window on the second floor, the glass was closed, and the beige curtains were tightly covered, Du Xiaoxian rubbed his nose and thought, the young master shouldn't have gotten up yet, right?
She cleaned the ground in the front yard, picked up dead leaves in the grass, and then walked along the brick driveway to the gate. The road was not dirty, and it was not difficult to sweep it, and when she reached the iron gate, she swept the fallen leaves together and shoveled them into the large basket with a small shovel. Only then did he straighten up and rest for a while.
The fallen leaves on the ground were cleaned, and the rest was the fallen leaves in the grass on the side of the road, which was not easy to sweep, so she could only use the ones she picked up, so she carried the bamboo basket on her back, and then squatted on the ground to pick up the fallen leaves and garbage. In fact, she also has a pair of gloves and a basket in her tools, and she is not comfortable using the basket, and the gloves are simply reluctant to use, so they are all saved. Anyway, she's not a delicate lady, just wash her hands when they're dirty.
The dew in the grass wet the upper of her shoes, Du Xiaoxian stomped her feet, looked around to see if there was anyone, took off her shoes and put them on the tiles, when she was at home, because she was afraid of wearing out her shoes, she often played barefoot in summer and autumn. When I got here, I didn't have to worry about wearing out my shoes, so the ground was smooth and clean, and I sent her two new pairs of black cloth shoes. So she wore shoes every day, and gradually got used to it.
The soft grass was very comfortable to step on, and if it weren't for the fear of the dew getting her clothes wet, she would really want to sit down. The bright red sun rose from mid-air, and thousands of golden rays sprinkled onto the earth, Du Xiaoxian looked up at the sky, the sunlight was not dazzling, warm and comfortable, she saw Gu Nianbin's window ajar, the curtains fluttered gently in the morning breeze, the lights were not turned on in the house, it seemed a little dark, Du Xiaoxian squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully for a while, and was not sure whether Gu Nianbin had gotten up.
She looked down at her injured hand, the burn marks darker than yesterday's, a dark red. The feeling of being hot is not at all. It's all good, so you don't need to rub the medicine, right? She is dry-skinned, this little injury is really nothing, but she promised the young master last night...... Du Xiaoxian hesitated and looked up at Gu Nianbin's window again, sighed lightly, lowered his head and began to pick up leaves. She's a simple-minded person, and she doesn't want to think about things that she can't think of clearly.
By the time she returned to the front yard, the bamboo basket on her back had already filled most of the fallen leaves. The morning's work is basically done, and when she comes back from school, she cleans up again, and the day's work is over. She stood up and stretched her waist, and then looked up, Gu Nianbin stood in front of the window, smiling and waving to her.
Du Xiaoxian's face turned red, like a child who had done something wrong and was caught red-handed, wringing his fingers nervously. His eyes were still looking at Gu Nianbin. At this time, her mind was blank again, and she didn't realize what Gu Nianbin was waving at her for? I felt that Gu Nianbin was a little shy, this kind of shyness was different from the usual embarrassment, and he was like a little rabbit in his heart, jumping fast and vigorously.
Gu Nianbin also laughed, the little girl was too easily frightened. But it's already better than before, at least the shy ones dare to look at him. In the golden sunshine, the little girl stood on the green lawn, smirking at him with a simple red face, and her pretty appearance made Gu Nianbin feel a strange emotion in his heart. As if it was joy, and as if it was ...... Disturbed.
He beckoned to her again, Du Xiaoxian remembered this time, quickly put down the bamboo basket, trotted up the steps, lay on the side of the door and secretly looked inside, there was no one in the hall, she was relieved, ran upstairs on tiptoe, touched Gu Nianbin's door like a thief, twisted the doorknob and flashed in, and then turned around and closed it gently, only then did she take a long breath.
When she turned around, she was startled again, Gu Nianbin was standing behind her, she was almost about to bump into him, Du Xiaoxian was so frightened that she took two steps back and leaned against the door, and slapped her chest a few times, "Less, young master, you scared me to death." ”
Gu Nianbin looked at her with interest, raised his eyebrows, and took a step closer to her: "Why am I scaring you?" ”
His snort was almost all sprayed on her face, warm, itchy, like a feather brushing her face, and her heart suddenly raced again, her face was hot, and even her neck was red.
Gu Nianbin raised his hand and wiped it on her forehead, and said in a gentle voice, "What are you running?" I sweated out in the morning! ”
Du Xiaoxian wanted to dodge, but she didn't move, the big hand seemed to have magic power, making her freeze there, the whole person was in a trance, Gu Nianbin, who was close at hand, exuded the breath of a mature man, which made her panic but greedy. Somehow, she suddenly laughed at him.
The smile bloomed like a deep valley orchid, which was amazing, making Gu Nianbin lose his mind for a moment. He even saw her little pink tongue flash between her teeth, and he took a step back and turned to the convulsions to take the ointment.
Du Xiaoxian sat obediently on the sofa, and when he came over, he stretched out his hand and said, "Young master, it's actually fine, it doesn't hurt at all." ”
Gu Nianbin sat down, took her hand and looked at the light carefully, and said, "It's better to apply some insurance again." As he spoke, he squeezed the ointment out and gently spread it on her, a thin layer of coolness.
Du Xiaoxian raised his eyes slightly, and saw Gu Nianbin with unkempt hair and a black vest, which was very different from his usual well-dressed appearance, but it had a lazy and uninhibited taste, which made people feel that they could be approached.
Du Xiaoxian remembered when she cried last night, Gu Nianbin hugged her, his arms were very strong, his arms were warm, and his heartbeat made her feel reassured. Du Xiaoxian suddenly sighed with emotion, it would be nice if he could stay by the young master's side all the time, he was good to her, he would protect her, stay by his side, she would always be safe.
But she also knew that it was impossible, the young master would marry Miss Xia, and then they would have children, and the young master would have his own family, so he would have no time to care about her anymore, and she would one day leave here and live her own life. Thinking of this, Du Xiaoxian felt a sense of loss in her heart.
Gu Nianbin smeared the medicine and put the medicine bottle in Du Xiaoxian's hand: "This is for you, don't be reckless in the future." ”
Du Xiaoxian blushed and said okay. Gu Nianbin stood up, "Okay, go down for breakfast, eat well and go to school." ”
Du Xiaoxian sighed, got up with the ointment and left, and was stopped by Gu Nianbin when he walked to the door: "Remember, don't help people on duty today." ”
"Okay, young master."
"You won't lie to me, will you?"
"No, it won't." Du Xiaoxian replied very simply, and his two big clear eyes looked at him and blinked.
Gu Nianbin smiled and waved her hand to let her go.
After Du Xiaoxian finished breakfast, he said to Uncle Xiao and went to school with his schoolbag, and when he walked to the front yard, he saw his wife and master taking a walk, and called them, Gu Guangxian smiled and nodded, and Fang Yaru told her to be careful on the road. Everything is no different from usual.
Du Xiaoxian walked out of the door and took a deep breath, she didn't expect last night's incident to be revealed so quickly. The young master doesn't blame her, it's because ...... Du Xiaoxian frowned and thought, is it because they are very familiar now? But Mrs. blamed her last night, and in the morning she saw that she looked loving again, the young master was right, Mrs. was a knife mouth tofu heart, but she said two words to her in a hurry, she didn't go to her heart at all, the whole thing came down, if there was not even a scolding her, then she didn't want to live!
Du Xiaoxian was in a particularly good mood today, straightened her small chest, faced the rising sun, and walked on the way to school in high spirits.
She is now familiar with Yang Liying and them, they play together every day, and basically do errands, but she is not annoyed at all, but she is very happy, it turns out that having friends is like this. What the young master said is right, be brave and make more friends. She was brave, so she made friends, and with friends, she became happy.
Yang Liying and the others also think it is good, although Du Xiaoxian is earthy and stupid, but they take good care of them, just like bringing a maid to school, and Du Xiaoxian takes care of all the miscellaneous things.
But when it was time to get out of school, Du Xiaoxian said that she couldn't be on duty for her, and Yang Liying's eyes widened, "Why don't you do it?" Isn't it all agreed? Besides, my hands hurt! ”
"My hand is also injured," Du Xiaoxian stretched out his hand to show her. "It's a big hot piece."
Yang Liying looked at it and said, "Isn't everything okay?" Okay, you can do it, no matter, Wang Qian and I are going to go shopping, so let's go first. ”
Du Xiaoxian's thin body stopped in front of her: "I really can't be on duty for you today, tomorrow, okay?" It's going to take a week anyway. ”
"No, you can do it for me today, otherwise-" Yang Liying snorted: "Otherwise, don't play with us in the future." ”
A poor worm, how dare you disobey her!
Du Xiaoxian tightened the schoolbag on his back, lowered his head and turned around and walked towards the door.
"Hey-" Yang Liying's eyes widened, this girl really ignored her threat? Why are you bold again?
She caught up with her and asked her again, "You really don't work for me?" ”
Du Xiaoxian shook his head: "It's really not okay today, but it can be tomorrow." After saying that, he turned around and walked away.
Yang Liying looked at her back and was a little stunned. What a strange girl, usually timid as a mouse, pitiful, but once she gets serious, it's really ...... There is a little bit of arrogance!
Du Xiaoxian walked out of the school gate all the way before he breathed a sigh of relief. Because of Gu Nianbin's request, she experienced the taste of refusal again. It was a little hard, but she did it. She has always been responsive to people's needs, and has never known how to refuse, feeling that refusal will make people sad, and she is not embarrassed to fall second.
This time she refused, she refused very decisively, and it was not as difficult as she imagined, and even gave her a little bit of confidence, Du Xiaoxian stood under the bus stop sign, and proudly straightened her small waist. She has really become braver, standing in the crowd, she can also hold her head high and not care about other people's eyes.
At this moment, a streamlined white convertible sports car stopped in front of her. The man in the driver's seat was wearing a pair of big sunglasses, showing a mouthful of big white teeth and smiling at her, Du Xiaoxian looked to both sides, thinking that he was smiling at her. Frightened, she slowly took two steps back. Twisted his face to look away.
