Chapter Eighty-Seven: Skipping School
In the early morning, the dew is still on the leaves and petals, and a small child walks on the winding path. As the dew evaporated from the sun, beads of sweat rolled out on the child's forehead.
"Sister, Sister Chuntao, why do I look like a little brother in that person?" March and the group arrived at the dock with a donkey cart, and when September looked around, they saw a child crouching near their stall.
"How is it possible, he is in a private school!" March has been listless because of yesterday's incident, and it is useless for Chun Tao to solve all the way.
"I look like a wax moon." Chun Tao looked in the direction of September's finger.
The kid just raised his head when October saw it. "It's really a little brother! Younger brother! ”
As soon as Layue heard October's voice, she immediately stood up, but instead of running over, she froze in place.
In March, the donkey cart drove to the stall, and in October, he went to call Layue, and the rest of the people brought down the contents of the cart.
"Little brother, what's wrong with you?" October walked to Layue's side.
Layue twisted her little face, gritted her teeth and said, "My legs are numb." ”
"Then sit down and I'll rub it for you." Layue sat back on the ground as October said, and asked her to help press her legs.
October pressed his leg and asked, "Why did you come to the county seat, shouldn't you be in a private school?" ”
"Fifth sister, you tap, tap, it hurts! Hemp! "Layue kept calling and did not answer October's questions.
"Even if you don't answer me, the second sister will ask, and you won't be able to run."
"I see, rambling!"
"You—" October let go of Layue's leg and stood up. Press it yourself! What brother? It's not cute at all. ”
Not to be outdone, Layue shot back: "Are you a sister?" I don't love my brother at all. ”
"Humph! I'll ignore you. With that, he turned around and left.
"Fifth sister, fifth sister! You can press it for me again! Layue shouted behind her, and the louder she shouted, the faster October would run.
When September saw October come back, he immediately asked, "Did you ask?" ”
"If he doesn't say it, I can't help it, you let the second sister ask!" October huffed and cleaned up the plates.
"I don't care, my own affairs haven't come to fruition yet!" March was in a bad mood and saw that the things in the car were gone, so he turned the donkey's head around and prepared to go back.
"March, you... Slow down! Chun Tao wanted to say some more words of persuasion, but she had already said a lot on the way, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
"Yes, let's go." March flicked the whip so hard that the donkey was frightened and spread his legs and ran away.
Chun Tao frowned, becoming more and more worried.
"Okay, she's not a child anymore, she can handle her own affairs." Zhou Kuiruo stepped forward and patted Chun Tao's back gently.
"Really?" Can a fifteen-year-old really deal with emotional problems?
Chun Tao always looks at problems from the perspective of modern people, but forgets that in this era, the thoughts of fifteen-year-old children are the thoughts of adults.
"You'd better deal with this kid in front of you first!" Chun Tao turned her head and looked at Zhou Kuiruo in confusion, Zhou Kuiruo raised her chin behind her, and as soon as Chun Tao turned around, she saw Layue walking towards her slowly.
"Why aren't you in a private school? Did you skip school? Chun Tao looked Layue up and down and saw his shoes covered with mud.
"I don't want to go to a private school, I can't understand what the master is teaching, and I don't tell him when I ask, I just let me read it myself." As he spoke, Layue pounced towards the spring peach.
Chun Tao instinctively stepped back, but before she could move, she was picked up. As soon as Chun Tao turned her head, she saw Zhou Kuiruo with a serious face.
"Sister Chun Tao!" As soon as Layue screamed, Chun Tao looked at him again. Chun Tao listened to Layue's speech while patting off Zhou Kuiruo's hand on his waist.
"Sister Chuntao, you let me learn words from you, okay? I'll be serious. ”
"Your father and mother want you to gain fame, I will only do it simply. You should learn from the Master. ”
"But I can't understand it, how can I get fame?"
"You're young now, you'll be able to understand later." Seeing that the workers on the dock were gradually gathering in front of the stall, Chun Tao did not want to entangle with him any more. "Okay, you sit down and eat something, I won't agree."
"Sister Chun Tao!" Layue wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Zhou Kuiruo reaching out. "Brother Zhou?"
"Do you know if men and women are intimate?"
"Know... Know! Zhou Kuiruo lost his usual signature smile, and he looked a little worried.
"Now that you know, why did you just pounce on Chun Tao?"
"I just want to tug at the corner of Sister Chuntao's clothes, not to hug her."
"That's good, sit down and eat!" After listening to Layue's words, Zhou Kuiruo turned sunny and regained his smile, and Layue also breathed a sigh of relief and sat down to eat something.
That's a lot of people! If I behave well now, maybe Sister Chun Tao will agree to teach me! Just do it, and Layue, who has set a goal for herself, suddenly came to the spirit.
"Fifth sister, I'll help you bring it over." Before she could react in October, Layue took away the plate in her hand.
"It's not from that table, it's from the side." Seeing that Layue put the wrong table, October reacted.
"Little sister, hurry up and help!" In September, he was collecting money, and Chun Tao was serving vegetables alone, and he was too busy.
"Here we are." October immediately threw down the wax moon and returned to the rice bucket to start serving rice.
Layue came to September's side and whispered, "Fourth sister, I can also help." ”
"Then you go and help clean up the table, and then wash the plates!"
"Huh? Is there anything else? ”
"Will you take money? Do you know how much the rice holds? Do you know how much the dish holds? If you don't know, just go wash the dishes and put away the table! September asked, Layue didn't know any of them, and stood in place.
No, I can't give up, I must ask Sister Chun Tao to give me a book with paintings. Wash the dishes, wash the dishes, I don't believe I can't do it.
After secretly cheering herself up, Layue collected all the empty plates on the table into a large basin, added plant ash, picked up the loofah and began to wash it without saying a word.
When Chun Tao finished using the dinner plate, they found that Layue was squatting on the ground washing dishes, "sitting on a small stool to wash." ”
Chun Tao took out a small stool out of nowhere and handed it to Layue. "Thank you, Sister Chuntao."
Chun Tao nodded, picked up the cleaned dinner plate and left.
After sending off the last group of guests, the four of them could finally rest.
Chun Tao drank pumpkin soup and looked at Layue, thought for a while and asked, "Why do you want to learn words from me?" ”
September and October also looked at Layue curiously, everything has a reason, Layue must have some important reason why she wants to study with Chun Tao so much.
"Didn't you say that you are the only one who transcribes books for the students you teach? I also want good books. ”
September and October both grew their mouths in surprise, and Chun Tao's stiff face couldn't be maintained, and he twitched slightly. "That's all you for?"
"Yes! I didn't like to listen to my master read and read, but the books were not good-looking. It's a waste of money to go to a private school, and the fourth sister can not only make money with you but also study, I want to. ”
"You won't be rich when you come."
Layue thought for a while and asked weakly: "No money, there is always food, right?" ”
"You don't have to say it, I won't agree, I'll go back after eating." After speaking, Chun Tao got up and went to serve the meal.
Layue wanted to beg again when she was eating, but was blocked by Chun Tao's sentence "Eat silently, sleep silently".
And on the way back, facing her second sister who was in a bad mood, Layue didn't dare to say more.
