Chapter 71 Rong Tao

"Is it so expensive? Is it possible that your shop is made of gold? When Li Guyu heard this price, he was a little unacceptable.

"My guest house is at this price, I can live if I can afford it, and if I can't afford it, I will pull it down." When the owner of the guest house saw that Li Guyu was reluctant to settle even eight yuan, he knew that she must be a poor person, and his face changed in an instant.

"What kind of attitude do you have! Who said I couldn't afford to live, here you go! Li Guyu took out the money from his pocket, slapped it on the owner of the guest house, then snatched the key from his hand, and left the counter of the guest house with heavy steps.

Li Guyu walked to the backyard and looked for her room after room, and finally Li Guyu found the room that belonged to her in a corner, and Li Guyu unloaded the heavy backpack on his body. Lying on the bed, looking for the right position. But she was so tired, but she couldn't sleep here. He was wondering if Cao Jianhua had a place to sleep at this time? Will he be pierced by merciless bullets on the battlefield? These thoughts made Li Guyu a little tired. She simply didn't want to, turned around, and continued to lie on the bed. With my eyes closed, I don't know what to think.

In this way, Li Guyu quietly fell asleep and had no dreams all night.

It wasn't the familiar rooster crowing that woke her up early in the morning, nor the gentle sunshine. She heard the noisy streets, pedestrians coming and going, hawkers hawking on the side of the road. All the voices were mixed together, and Li Guyu didn't feel sleepy. She got up and dressed, and went to the bathroom to wash her face. She carried the heavy bamboo basket on her back.

Li Guyu didn't see the owner of the guest house when she went out, so she directly put the key on the counter, left the guest house with her bamboo basket on her back, and embarked on the journey back to the small mountain village.

At first, she walked finely, because after all, she had rested all night, so she didn't feel much tired, but as time went by, the weight of the basket on her shoulders seemed to get heavier and heavier, and she seemed to be more and more unable to take a step, and it became more and more difficult to walk.

So Li Guyu could only walk for a while and then stop to rest, and at this time, a man on a bicycle stopped in front of Li Guyu.

"Little girl, it's you, do you remember me? I bought your preserved fruit in the first place! The visitor stepped on the bicycle with one foot on the ground and tilted the bicycle at an angle. Holding the handlebars with both hands, he tilted his head to Li Guyu and said.

"You, you are?" Li Guyu was now a little out of breath by the bamboo basket on her shoulder, so she directly removed the bamboo basket from her shoulder and put it on the ground, she carefully looked at the man in front of her. But she found that in her memory, this person seemed to have never appeared, and she couldn't find any memories of him.

"It's the one I took the lead in buying your preserved fruits, little girl, you don't remember me! Oh, that's really sad for me! Then I'll introduce me now! My name is Rong Tao, what about you? Girl? Rong Tao still looked cynical, very different from Li Guyu's appearance when he first saw him.

Hearing Rong Tao say this, Li Guyu finally remembered that man. "Oh it's you, I haven't thanked you properly, if it weren't for you taking the lead in buying my preserved fruit, maybe no one would have dared to taste it until now!" Li Guyu said with some gratitude.

"Hey, what a big deal, even if I don't buy it, someone will definitely buy it, the things you make are so delicious, they won't be buried!" Rong Tao didn't treat the original incident as a big thing, but in his heart, this little girl who could cook food left a deep impression on him.

"Where are you going? Why don't I send you, you see that you are tired of walking by yourself! Rong Tao didn't wait for Li Guyu to speak before he saw the bamboo basket that Li Guyu put on the ground, 'It seems that the things on this little girl's back are not light, otherwise how tired and sweaty, after all, it is almost late autumn, I will help her take a ride, let her be more relaxed, it will definitely not be easy for her to be a little girl!'

"Ah, no, no, no, no, why are you embarrassed to bother you? I'm almost home! Li Guyu hurriedly postponed it, after all, although she and Rong Tao said that it was the second time they met, they were just strangers after all, how could she let someone she didn't know help her do such a troublesome thing?" Hey, what's this, come on! Rong Tao got off the bike, stopped the bicycle support, and reached out to pick up Li Guyu's back basket and put it on the back seat of the bicycle.

"I really don't need to, I don't want to trouble you, I can do it myself!" Li Guyu picked up the basket from the ground as he spoke, and was about to walk forward with his back on his back.

"Look at you, what a little girl is so strong, this thing must not be light, you see your tired sweat, give me something quickly, I will follow you and don't lose it, what are you afraid of? Don't you believe me? Rong Tao was originally just kind-hearted, but unexpectedly, Li Guyu's resignation, he felt that since he was now by Li Guyu's side, he couldn't let a little girl carry such a heavy thing.

'Yes, I just don't believe you, if you put my brown paper on the cart and ride away, where will I go after you!' Li Guyu just thought about this in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it, because she knew that no matter what reason Rong Tao came to help her, he was kind to her. She ignored what Rong Tao said and continued to walk forward.

Seeing this, Rong Tao was also interested, he boarded the bicycle, caught up with Li Guyu in two or three steps, and grabbed her back basket with one hand and was about to lift it up.

"Hey, what are you doing? Why are you like this? I said I don't care about you, what are you doing! Li Guyu was a little caught off guard, and when she was pulled by a force behind her, she had no choice but to stretch her arms back and get out of the back basket. When she stood still, she began to scold Rong Tao!

"I really don't mean anything else, I just see that you're too tired and want to help you, well, if you're angry, then you better continue to carry it..."Rong Tao was a little surprised by Li Guyu's words, he sat on the saddle of the bicycle, one hand still holding the back basket, and looked at Li Guyu blankly.

Li Guyu also realized at this time that she had gone too far, and Rong Tao just wanted to help her, so she said to Rong Tao again. "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now, because your actions really scared me, I admit that when I first met you, I didn't trust you, so I didn't want to give my backpack to anyone else, but now I'm very sorry for what I just did, I'm sorry! I know you've meant so much to me! Li Guyu was very sincere and apologized to Rong Tao.

"Hey, it's okay, I can understand, after all, you are a little girl walking on this kind of road, and when you meet a man like me, everyone will think too much! I'll hold this basket for you, after all, you're a little girl, this basket is really too heavy, and it's not good if it hits your spine! Rong Tao waved his hand indifferently, and scratched his head with nowhere to put his hand when he finally spoke.

Li Guyu didn't refuse him anymore, but helped Rong Tao put her bamboo basket on the back seat of the bicycle, and then Rong Tao slowly rode the bicycle to follow Li Guyu's pace.

The years are quiet, because of your company. The rest of my life is cold, and I am no longer alone. If people who don't know see this scene of Rong Tao and Li Guyu, they will definitely think that they are two young couples who have just entered love. And this scene of Li Guyu and Rong Tao happened to be seen by a soldier under Cao Jianhua, how did this soldier know Li Guyu? Because Fengdong took him to find Cao Jianhua at the beginning, he saw Cao Jianhua silently watching a woman from a distance, and with Cao Jianhua's gaze, he found that this person was Li Guyu.

But Cao Jianhua just watched, and didn't step forward to disturb her. In this way, Li Guyu had already left a bad impression in their hearts before he saw Cao Jianhua's soldiers. Because they felt that Li Guyu could let Cao Jianhua watch silently and not come to look for Cao Jianhua, which was a great disrespect to Cao Jianhua.

Li Guyu didn't expect that the part of the road she and Rong Tao walked together would be seen by Cao Jianhua's soldiers, nor did she expect that this incident would cause great trouble to her future life, let alone that she and Cao Jianhua would almost become strangers because of such a trivial matter, and she didn't know everything now. When all this happened, Li Guyu felt very regretful, but there was no regret medicine in the world.

Now Li Guyu returned home accompanied by Rong Tao, Rong Tao removed his back basket and helped Li Guyu put the back basket in the house. Li Guyu wanted to beckon him to drink a glass of water, but Rong Tao shirked and said that he would leave first if he had something to do, and he didn't even drink saliva.

After Rong Tao left, Li Guyu began to be busy and began to pack the preserved fruits. In the process, she felt very tired, but also very fulfilling.

After Li Guyu packed all the remaining fruit recipes, she thought about when she was going to buy sweet potatoes and make money from dried fruits, because after all, fruits will become very perishable after autumn, and in winter, it is difficult to find even a fruit, and there is no condition to make a shop, so she can only find another way to make dried sweet potatoes.

Thinking of this, Li Guyu couldn't care about eating, she changed her clothes, and her clothes came to the locust tree where she met the group of children at the beginning. Sure enough, the children were still playing there. So she walked to the center of the child and said to the child. "Children, sister, I don't need fruit now, but I need sweet potatoes now, if you have them, you can also exchange them with me, but this time we have to pay by the pound, I can already give you two cents, you go back and ask your father and mother if they want to sell it, and then come back and tell me okay?"

"Good!" The children scattered.
