Chapter 147: Living Together Without Marriage? (1st Update)
Just do it, Hu Man has one of the biggest advantages, that is, he never procrastinates, but he thought about it again, since he wants to get a library, it is better to put it on the fourth floor, after all, the third floor is sandwiched between eating and playing mahjong, and some people are going back and forth up and down the stairs is a little noisy, and it is more appropriate to put mahjong on the third floor.
Just put the bookcase, she doesn't make any tricks, but the sofa tea set is still necessary, the bookshelves are very common styles, but the quality is good, the bookshelves are easy to get, but there are too many books, and there has been an endless stream of people moving books to them.
Hu Man casually put a cushion on the ground, picked it up with a few literacy readers, divided it into categories, and then made a brand of what type of book each bookshelf was, and then placed it on it.
Because it is impossible to collect all at once, it seems that it is still a long-term project, but it does not prevent the official opening at that time, Hu Man picked two layers of management with good knowledge, including book rental records and account management.
After a whole day of tinkering with books, Hu Man's whole body was already sore and his back hurt, and when he went downstairs, the workers had already left.
I was thinking that I wouldn't cook today, and I would go out for a meal, but I saw Wu Zhan coming back, and just wanted to catch up, only to see a woman behind him.
The first thought that popped into her heart was, this is Su Lijiu's brutal sister? Sure enough, Wu Zhan was a little helpless: "Manman, this is Miss Su."
Hu Man took a closer look, she looked quite delicate, but the domineering face was not too obvious, and she smiled out of politeness: "Miss Su."
Su Jia sighed: "This is what my brother said about your lady?" But didn't he say that you weren't married? Didn't get married...... Actually live together? ”
"Miss Su!" Wu Zhan's tone was a little deep: "This is a private matter between us, doesn't Miss Su just want to come and see the restaurant?"
Su Jia pulled her lips, and sure enough, she looked around at the restaurant, it's not that she has little knowledge, she has never been to this high-grade restaurant in Changling, she has never seen such a restaurant, she is a little confused, but she looked at Hu Man, and she didn't want to open her mouth to ask.
Hu Man glanced at her and shook his head at Wu Zhan: "It's okay, you go in and wash up, you didn't cook today, go out to eat!"
Su Jia saw that Wu Zhan had also left, so he slowly spoke: "Do you know how my brother describes you?" Rich girl! Fortune of fortune! ”
Hu Man smiled: "Rich girl? Compared with you, my money is also called money? ”
"It's not that you're rich, it's that you're good at making money." Su Jia sighed: "My brother rarely praises people, especially women...... If he hadn't said you were a martial woman, I would have thought he liked you! ”
"Miss Su, you can't talk nonsense." Hu Man propped up the table with his hands facing back: "What is the identity of Master Su, what are our identities!" Isn't it the most important thing for you people with heads and faces? Don't say that Su Gongzi can't like me, even if we really like each other, your parents won't allow me to marry Su Gongzi, just like that, they won't let you... It's the same as marrying a martial artist! ”
Su Jia twisted her eyebrows: "Joke, of course I won't marry him!" Can I take a fancy to him? Who is he? ”
"He's my man." Hu Man pursed his lips: "I don't need Miss Su to look at it."
Yu Guang saw Wu Zhan coming, Hu Man smiled: "We're going out to eat, do you want Miss Su together?"
Su Jia pouted: "I think too much." He didn't say goodbye, shook his hand and left.
"What did she say?" Wu Zhan looked at Su Jia's back.
"It's nothing, some things about my daughter's family, let's eat." Hu Man held his arm, when he came back yesterday, he thought that this woman was deliberately looking for trouble and injured Wu Zhan, but today it seems that it is really an unintentional person who does not recruit people!
"How many guest officers are there?" In a tavern, the shopkeeper came over to greet him very warmly.
"Both." Hu Man and Wu Zhan found a place to sit down, ordered two dishes and rice, and ate while chatting about the restaurant.
Listening to a noise on the side of the stairs, mixed with scolding and begging for mercy, the two looked over curiously, only to see a thin boy curled up in the corner, Xiao Er was pointing to his nose and scolding, and kicked a few times from time to time.
Hu Man frowned, a little unable to look at it, looked at the guests around him, as if he didn't see it, but as if they were all used to it, Hu Man grabbed a guy and asked, "What's the matter, that kid?"
"Oh, it was bought by our shopkeeper, I thought I could use it as a buddy! Who knows how lazy and weak they are, and they always don't work. ”
Hu Man couldn't help but look at it again, and happened to meet the child's eyes, which were clearly full of helplessness and fear, he was so scared, would he rather be beaten than work?
Hu Man couldn't take his eyes off his eyes, hesitated, and the martial arts next to him had already stood up and walked over, and grabbed the hand that the guy was going to fight: "Don't fight."
The guy turned his head and saw that it was a guest eating, tall and big, and smiled: "Guest officer, it's not that I want to beat him, it's that he is always lazy and doesn't work, and he can't do it if he doesn't teach him a lesson!"
As he spoke, Hu Man also got up and came over, squatting down and looking at the child: "Are you afraid of them?"
The boy's dark eyes stared at Hu Man timidly, and then nodded slightly, Hu Man gently touched his hair: "You tell my sister, you don't want to be lazy, do you?"
The boy continued to nod, and Hu Man asked again, "Then why don't you tell your sister to work?"
The boy opened his mouth: "I don't have the strength." The voice is very low.
Hu Man raised his eyebrows, grabbed his wrist directly, and before he could check the pulse, his sleeves slipped up, and his arms were full of scars, some new and some old, Hu Man raised his head and asked the guy: "You actually abused him?"
The guy was also startled, and hurriedly waved his hand to deny: "This is not us!" At most, we are teaching a lesson, but we don't dare to kill people! ”
Hu Man slowly looked at the boy: "Is it you?"
The boy's eyes were helpless, he didn't nod or shake his head, Hu Man felt a little worried, he looked very delicate and white, but he was too thin, it didn't look normal, Hu Man gave him a pulse, and only said after a while: "Can't eat, can't sleep?" Feeling weak? Still want to die? ”
The boy nodded silently, Hu Man probably understood, and stood up: "You haven't taken this child to the doctor?"
The guy looked confused: "The shopkeeper didn't say anything, should we pay for his own medical treatment?" And he doesn't look sick! It's just timid and lazy. ”
Hu Man glanced at Wu Zhan and said in a low voice: "If this kid stays here, he will die sooner or later."
Wu Zhan knew that although she was usually very aggressive, she had the softest heart: "You want to buy him?"
Hu Man asked Xiao Er: "What about your shopkeeper?" Since it's useless for this kid to stay here, I want to buy it. ”
The boy looked up at Hu Man suddenly, and when he saw Hu Man smiling at him, the hand holding his fist suddenly loosened.
As soon as the guy heard that someone was willing to ask for this hot potato, he hurriedly ran back to find the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper was not there, but the proprietress came out, it was a woman in her forties, the woman was five big and three thick, and her voice was also loud: "You want to buy this child?" Okay, take thirty taels of silver! ”
Wu Zhan twisted his eyebrows: "Thirty taels? Will you buy this child back for thirty taels? ”
The proprietress snorted coldly: "It's thirty taels, a lot of points, love to buy it or not!"
"This boss lady is too dark, such a shoulder can't resist and can't be lifted, it's a waste of food to give away!" The guests at the other table couldn't help but tease.
The boy couldn't help but look up at Hu Man again, he knew that he was not worth thirty taels, and no one would pay so much money to buy a waste, but in his heart, he still thought that instead of dying here, he wanted to go with this young lady!
Hu Man also knew that thirty taels was more than enough to buy a healthy person, but this child's eyes were watery, too poignant, he took out a deep breath and took out thirty taels from his sleeve: "The money is here, take the deed of sale!"
The proprietress was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Hu Man to be so happy, she dared to open her mouth so much, she originally heard what Xiao Er said that this girl was very pitiful to this child, and she thought that if they didn't buy it, they would leave and then reduce the price, so she was busy: "Hey, wait!"
When he got the deed of sale, Hu Man glanced at the things that Xiao Er had packed up for him, just a broken bag, and there were two broken clothes in it, Hu Man threw it away directly, and looked at the child: "What's your name?"
The little second next to him replied: "Miss, he has no name, and he usually doesn't speak at all, we all call him dumb."
Hu Man sighed, there was really no human right in ancient times, and asked him again: "Then would you like to go back with me?"
The kid nodded, Hu Man smiled, pulled him up, and took him back to the restaurant directly.
"You will follow us here in the future, wait a while, I will cook." I wanted to be lazy, but I didn't finish the meal, so I had to cook it myself.
Wu Zhan took him directly to the backyard and brought him a set of small clothes: "Change into this first, the room... It's right next to us! ”
After explaining the martial arts and going to help Hu Man, the boy stood in the yard with his clothes for a while, and suddenly saw a very delicate kennel, with large green eyes, staring at him for a while, and then came out and walked over.
The boy was not afraid, and when it approached, he bent down very boldly and touched its head, and the big man probably thought that his breath smelled good, and he did not object, but only whined a few times.
The boy looked at the big money, it stood up upright and licked its hand, the corners of its mouth finally pulled a slight arc, I don't know how many years, how many years have not smiled.
Look at the new home, this restaurant that is many times better than that tavern, the very gentle young lady, he suddenly felt a little better in his heart, and his depressed mood was a little better, and he went to the room where Wu Zhan pointed out his clothes to change his clothes.
After changing his clothes, he looked in the mirror, washed his hands and his face before going out, and followed him into the restaurant, where he had always been able to enter and exit freely when there were no guests.
