Chapter 3: Xue Ling'er

"Hook-hook-huo" A rooster crow woke Lu Zhe up from his sleep, opened his sleepy and hazy eyes, yawned and stretched his waist to sit up from the wooden board, looking at the already bright sky outside, Lu Zhe got down from the wooden board, took out the water he took yesterday from behind the pillar, drank two sips, looked at the bottom of the Buddha statue, shook his head, and shouted under the Buddha statue: I put the buns and pickles that I didn't finish yesterday in the cabinet behind the Buddha statue, if you are hungry, come out to eat.

There was no movement under the Buddha statue, Lu Zhe shrugged helplessly, and walked down the mountain quickly.

Came to Qingxi Wharf, Lu Zhe went to the oil sixth to get the work as usual, and came to the house where the oil sixth was, Lu Zhe knocked on the door, and after hearing the promise, he pushed the door in, entered the house, and found that the oil old six was talking to a girl, and the girl had her back to Lu Zhe, but it can be seen from her graceful back that this girl must have a good appearance.

Lu Zhe stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, and said to the oil old man: Sixth uncle, I'm sorry to disturb your conversation.

You Lao Liu didn't get angry, but stood up and said to Lu Zhe: Come, Lu Zhe, let me introduce you, this is my daughter, Xue Ling'er.

Hearing this, Lu Zhe was slightly stunned, the girl in front of him with her back to herself was the daughter of the fat oil old six?

The graceful figure slowly stood up, turned to look at Lu Zhe, when he turned his face, Lu Zhe couldn't help but be stunned, this girl can be described as a natural beauty, captivating the country and the city. I guess I'm about 14 years old. A delicate melon seed face, faint thin eyebrows, bright eyes, a cocked nose, cherry-like lips, three thousand green silk perpendicular to the waist, two sideburns hanging down on the shoulders, a purple ribbon tied on the right sideburns, a dress made of pale green silk. The body is uneven. Resolute is a beautiful embryo. Although this girl's beauty may not be anything in the entire Shenxia Continent, it can be regarded as one of the best in this Qingxi City and even in this Oga Empire.

Lu Zhe's surprise was not because of the girl's beauty, but because he cared about why the fat oil sixth had such a beautiful and moving daughter.

The girl turned around, and what caught her eye was a taller, slightly thin teenager, the teenager looked down and thought about something, while the teenager was thinking, the girl carefully observed the young man in front of her, a handsome face, probably because of malnutrition, the face was slightly thin, a light gray coarse cloth shirt, completely incomparable with his own clothes made of fine silk, a pair of straw sandals made of grass branches, completely a laborer's dress, but the age of the young man in front of him was probably similar to his own, originally the age of reading or playing, but he had to come to the dock to do hard labor, thinking of this, Xue Ling'er felt a trace of pity for the life experience of the young man in front of her.

The girl quickly finished looking at the young man in front of her, and when she saw that the young man in front of her was still pondering, she shouted to Lu Zhe: Hey.

Lu Zhe was interrupted by the girl's voice, raised his head to look at the girl in front of him, and said calmly: Something?

The ordinary words that could no longer be ordinary came into the girl's ears, and there was a hint of baby voice in her voice, which made Xue Ling'er even more pity. So, the cold voice asked a little softly: Who are you?

"Oh, me, I'm just a part-time worker, carrying things," Lu Zhe said with a shrug and a smile, as if he didn't hear the soft voice from the girl's mouth.

The girl was slightly stunned, although she had already guessed, but after hearing the young man's affirmation, the girl was a little surprised, a fourteen-year-old worker, unless he was a person with a very miserable background.

"I ask you what your name is," came the girl's mouth in a delicate, cold voice mixed with some pity.

"Lu Zhe" was crisp and without a trace of muddy and watery sound came out of Lu Zhe's mouth.

"Lu Zhe, yes, okay, I remember you," the girl said.

"Then thank you for your appreciation," Lu Zhe's face was still as clear as an ancient well. It's just a slight bend of her body, which can be regarded as thanking her for saying this.

"Hmm" Xue Ling'er nodded, turned around, and sat down.

"Sixth Uncle, is there anything else?" Lu Zhe's questioning voice came out.

"No?" replied the oil old six.

"If I don't have it, I'll go out to work, Uncle Six, I'm leaving" Waving his hand at the oil Lao Liu, Lu Zhe opened the door and left.

The girl sat on the chair and faced the oil sixth, lowered her head and pondered for a while, looked up at the oil old six and said slowly: Father, I don't know what you think of this young man?

After hearing his daughter's words, You Lao Liu was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: Hehe, in general, he is very serious about doing things, what's wrong? As soon as his tone changed, the sixth oil pretended to be angry and said.

"What do you think of this stinky boy" This time it was the turn of the sixth oil to ask Xue Ling'er.

"Hmm" Xue Ling'er lowered her head in thought, and did not speak.

"Oh, would you care about a boy? That's a little surprising to me, isn't it...... Hehe, that stinky boy is so blessed" You Lao Liu's words were very serious at first, and he said with a smile at the end.

"Don't talk useless nonsense. Xue Ling'er's face was like an iceberg.

You Lao Liu ate his daughter's deflated, and he didn't get angry, just shrugged his shoulders casually.

"Actually, I always feel that he is different from the boys I usually see" The cold voice came from the girl's mouth, but this time there was no emotion in it.

"Oh, it's different, what's the difference, it's all one nose and two eyes. The only difference is that he supports himself by himself" Hearing his daughter's words, You Lao Liu shook his head with a slight wry smile and said slowly.

"Feed yourself?" Xue Ling'er asked suspiciously.

"Not only does he support himself, I remember that he seems to have to take care of a disabled person," You Lao Liu said lightly after thinking for a while.

"Take care of a disabled person, just him?" Hearing this, Xue Ling'er's eyebrows moved slightly, and she asked in disbelief.

"Yes, everyone at Qingxi Wharf knows about this," said the oil Lao Liu, sitting on a chair and drinking tea.

At a young age, you will take care of people, it seems that the old saying is good, the children of the poor are in charge of the house early. Xue Ling'er said silently in her heart.

"By the way, you just said that he supports himself, what about his parents?" Xue Ling'er asked as she sat down.

"No, he didn't have parents, he floated from Qinghai five years ago, we all thought he was dead, but, after salvage, I pressed his chest a few times, spit a few mouthfuls of water, and he woke up. We asked him, and he said he didn't remember anything, only that his name was Lu Zhe, and then he settled down at this Qingxi Wharf, and he lived there for five years," You Lao Liu recalled with his cheeks in his hands.

"Huh?" Hearing this, Xue Ling'er was slightly stunned.

"Why are you lying to you" After hearing Xue Ling'er's questioning tone, You Lao Liu leaned on the chair and explained with his eyes slightly closed.

After inquiring about Lu Zhe, Xue Ling'er turned around and left the room of the sixth oil, and the sixth oil was leaning on the chair and taking a nap, the afternoon of July was a sultry afternoon when he wanted people to sleep.

At the end of work, it was already afternoon, about five or six o'clock, Lu Zhe shook his dusty clothes, put them on his body, and was about to go to Qian Laosi to change money, when he was suddenly stopped by a very familiar voice

"Wait, Lu Zhe, I have something to say to you" A familiar voice came, causing Lu Zhe to stop, turn around and look in the direction of the source of the voice, only to see a fat figure standing there.

"Something's wrong, Sixth Uncle" Lu Zhe started walking towards the location of the fat shadow.

The fat shadow is really the oil old man who is trying to get a job, seeing Lu Zhe coming, the oil old man smiled slightly, and when Lu Zhe walked in front of him, he said slowly: That's the case, do you remember my beautiful daughter you saw today?

"Oh, you're talking about Miss Xue," Lu Zhe recalled and replied lightly.

"How is my daughter?" asked with a wicked smile on his face.

"Hey, I really don't know, Sixth Uncle, where did you cultivate the blessings in your previous life, you have such a beautiful and moving daughter, I dare to guarantee that when your daughter grows up, the matchmaker will definitely break through the threshold" Lu Zhe first patted the shoulder of the oil sixth, and then said to the oil sixth with a thumbs up.

"Hey, you only know one and you don't know the other," said the sixth oil with a sigh.

"Oh, what's the matter, listening to your tone, having such a beautiful daughter has become a burden" Lu Zhe asked suspiciously.

"Hey, you just said that the matchmaker will break through the threshold in the future, let alone in the future, now the threshold of my family has been stepped on" The sigh of the sixth oil increased a little.

"This is very good" Lu Zhe's question increased again, isn't this good?

"Hey, I and his mother can greet the matchmaker, but, you don't know, my daughter is proud of herself, and he almost didn't look at the people who came, which stumped me and his mother," said the oil Lao Liu.

"Oh, this is also normal, your daughter has such courage, you two should be happy" Lu Zhe was not too surprised after hearing the explanation of the sixth oil, because it is normal for a beauty like him to be proud of himself.

"The girl is not in the middle, and in two years she will be at the age when she should get married," You Lao Liu sighed and said.

This time it was Lu Zhe's turn to make a difficulty, it stands to reason that their family's affairs have nothing to do with themselves, why would you Lao Liu talk to himself about his daughter with such great interest today? Whether his daughter marries or not has nothing to do with him, and he is not marrying himself, a girl like her daughter, Lu Zhe doesn't even bother to think about it, even if he thinks about it, people won't look down on him, so it's better to work more and get paid if he has time to think. The most important thing now is to hurry up to Qian Lao Si to get the money, and the guy who picked the door and got home wished that he was late, and then took the opportunity to deduct his wages. Therefore, now Lu Zhe is trying to find an excuse to slip away.

Just when Lu Zhe wanted to make an excuse, You Lao Liu stopped the topic of her daughter, changed the conversation, and said to Lu Zhe: Boy, do you remember that my daughter spoke to you first today.

"Well, yes," Lu Zhe replied when he was interrupted by Oil Lao Liu.

"Well, it's not simple, you don't know, my daughter usually sees the little guys of the dignitaries and nobles, and after a long time, my daughter is not even bothering to glance at those dignitaries and nobles, because she rarely speaks, so her temperament is very cold and arrogant. However, because she is so beautiful, those high-ranking and aristocratic guys have come to the door one by one to match, even the city lord has mentioned marriage, but he has no one to look at, I asked her why, she always said that her destiny will always come, and she said that even if she marries, she will marry an extraordinary person. Because of his cold and arrogant personality, he rarely takes the initiative to talk to others, she took the initiative to talk to you today, I don't think it's simple" Oil Lao Liu's serious look amused Lu Zhe, his face originally had a lot of meat, as soon as he was serious, he frowned, and the meat on his face was squeezed out, just squeezing his eyes away, looking like a meatball.

Suppressing his laughter, Lu Zhe said with a serious face: What kind of good sign is that, didn't you say that he is a big iceberg? Besides, all the words of me and her add up to exactly five sentences. After speaking, Lu Zhe also stretched out five fingers and gestured.

"Well, you don't know, this is indeed a good sign, I just said, because of cold arrogance, she is very dislike to talk, even the mayor's son She only said three words" The old man said "um" fiercely, and then Yan sรน stretched out three fingers and said.

This time it made Lu Zhe cry and laugh, and the words of the sixth oil made Lu Zhe think that he and her daughter said five sentences like money falling from the sky.

"What the hell is the matter with you," Lu Zhe finally asked impatiently.
