Chapter 4 Gangsters
Xue Lao stood at the door of the house and looked around, it was almost dark, and Xue Hao hadn't come back yet. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He couldn't help but be a little worried, after all, Xue Hao was only a ten-year-old child.
At this moment, a thin figure appeared in Xue Lao's sight. This person is Xue Hao, I saw him holding shoes in his arms, and holding a roast chicken in his left hand, walking towards Xue Lao.
"Hao'er, where did you come from?"
Xue Hao: "Grandpa, let's go back and talk about it." Xue Hao walked into the house, put down everything first, and then told Xue Lao and Xue Ling'er how he made money.
"These shoes are what you thought of to earn from the advertising slogan?"
Xue Hao nodded: "Not only these two pairs of shoes, but also two taels of silver, the roast chicken was bought with this money." Grandpa, try it and see if these boots fit. ”
Hearing Xue Hao's urging, Xue Lao put on his boots, stood up and walked two steps, and the thick soles of his boots smashed on the ground with a clang. These boots are a little big, but Xue Lao is indescribably comfortable in his heart, and he didn't take them off after putting them on.
Xue Ling'er: "Hao'er, you are really a genius. Only a genius can come up with such a good advertising slogan. ”
Hearing the compliment, Xue Hao was a little embarrassed: "I just think about it casually." ”
Xue Lao couldn't cry or laugh a little, other geniuses were all eight years old who could chant poetry and ten years old and could do right, but Xue Hao used strange advertising words to make money.
Xue Ling'er looked at the only pair of shoes left on the ground, and felt a little lost in her heart, but then she stopped thinking about it, Xue Hao was already very good to make money.
"Sister, this is for you. Xue Hao handed the card to Xue Ling'er.
From the first glance of the hairpin, Xue Ling'er's eyes couldn't be taken off, she took it carefully with both hands, and after playing with it in her hands, she said: "This is very expensive, how can you waste it so much, you should save the money." ”
Although Xue Ling'er said this, Xue Hao saw that the dimples on Xue Linger's face had not disappeared from the moment she saw the hairpin.
"Sister, this is not expensive, you can wear it. ”
"Hmm. Xue Ling'er slowly put the hairpin on her head, but there was no mirror at home, so she couldn't see it, so she could only ask Xue Hao, "Hao'er, do you think I look so good?"
Xue Hao: "Good-looking, sister, you look the best." You'd better cook first, I'm starving. If he didn't urge, it was estimated that Xue Ling'er would have been intoxicated with joy and forget to cook, and he would be hungry.
Xue Ling'er hummed a little song and went to cook.
Xue Ling'er is only twelve years old, but she is already a little beauty embryo. So when she usually goes out, she deliberately smears her face. Plus dressed shabby, like a beggar, it's fine.
Xue Lao kept walking around the room, and the sound of his boots clattering regularly. Since putting on the new boots, Xue Lao felt that he couldn't sit still at all, and he wanted to take two steps if he had nothing to do.
Soon, Xue Ling'er cooked the meal. This time it's rice with roast chicken, and everyone has a few pieces of chicken in their bowl.
Xue Lao looked at the hairpin on Xue Ling'er's head, and then at the chicken in the bowl, and couldn't help but say, "Hao'er, you can't waste it like this in the future." I have to save up the money to hire an awakened master for you. ”
Xue Hao seemed to have seen the Awakened Master twice in his memory, but both ended in failure. Now he doesn't know what an Awakened Master is, and he doesn't care.
Xue Hao: "Grandpa, I don't want to awaken the master." Wouldn't it be nice for us to do this? Don't worry, I'll make a lot of money in the future, so that we can all have new clothes to wear and meat to eat every day!"
Xue Lao: "Haha, that's right, as long as life is good, it doesn't matter whether you wake up or not." After speaking, Xue Lao swallowed his saliva and began to eat.
Although he said that Xue Hao was wasteful, in the face of chicken, Xue Lao couldn't help but drool. He hadn't tasted meat in a long time.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. This was the sound of a paw slicing through the wooden door, and Xue Hao knew who it was.
"I'm going to get rid of it. Xue Hao said, and then went out with a rice bowl.
Sure enough, it was the stray dog at the door. This stray dog has already come twice since Xue Hao crossed over. Every time they come when they eat.
This is a puppy, it looks like it was born not long ago, dirty, and gray.
"The nose is quite smart, I know that we eat," Xue Hao said, "Didn't you say it last time, we can't afford to raise you." ”
The little greyhound barked twice, did not leave, nor did he enter the door, just looked at Xue Hao pitifully.
"Forget it, I'll feed you again. Today is considered your luck and there is something delicious. Xue Hao took out a few gnawed chicken bones from the bowl and put them in front of the puppy.
The puppy looked very hungry and crushed all the chicken bones into his stomach and barked in satisfaction.
Xue Hao stretched out his hand and pointed to the east: "You go over there, this is a slum area, and that side is a rich area." Maybe you'll meet some kind rich man to adopt you. Here you have to endure hardship. ”
The puppy seemed to understand Xue Hao's words, turned around and ran away.
After eating, Xue Hao lay on the bed and rested with his stomach.
He's thinking about where he's going to make money tomorrow. Today such a deal is a one-time thing, and it is impossible to make a living from it. How many times can he use all kinds of advertising words in his head, and what should he do when he runs out?
Suddenly, a shout came from outside the door: "Xue Erhu, are you there?"
Because Xue Lao relies on an erhu all the year round, people nearby call him Xue Erhu.
Xue Lao frowned, and said to Xue Hao and Xue Ling'er: "You two stay in the house and don't come out." With that, he walked out the door.
Xue Lao said this, which aroused Xue Hao's curiosity. He stood in the doorway, looking out through the crack in the doorway.
Opposite Xue Lao was a thin and thin-eyed person.
This man's name is Wang Erhei, and he is a bastard in the slums, doing some pimping to make a living. Once I saw Xue Ling'er's true face, I was worried about it. Although Xue Ling'er is only twelve years old, some rich people like this.
"Xue Erhu, how is it, have you thought about it? You are so poor, raising a girl is also a drag, why don't you let me find a good family......
Xue Lao: "Hmph! Get out of here, die of this heart." "Xue Lao may not dare to offend others, but a gangster in the slums, he is really not afraid of this old bone.
"Alas, don't be so angry, you have something to say. I'm definitely going to find a good family, and at least let Ling'er be accepted as a concubine, how about it?"
"Wang Erhei, if you don't leave, don't blame me for being unkind. Saying that, Xue Lao was going to pick up the wooden stick next to him.
When Wang Erhei saw Xue Lao's posture, he didn't dare to stay longer, so he turned around and left.
"Phew, you bastard, dare to worry about Ling'er?" Xue Lao turned around and went back to the house.
