74. Hospitality is sincere
There were two oil lamps lit in the room, and although it was still dim, it was much brighter than at other times.
The wooden table was full of bowls, and Chun Tao was still busy, bringing in a big bowl of stew.
"This is our family's own dried vegetables." Chun Tao said, looking at the girl who was sitting.
Although the girl was dressed ordinarily, Chun Tao inexplicably felt that this girl had another kind of extravagance.
It is clean extravagance.
She was a little reserved and shy, and hurriedly added, "Stewed in lard."
She brought out the best in the house and entertained her.
Meng Xichang said, "Chun Tao doesn't need to cook so many dishes."
"How can that be, it's Brother Ah Shui, your family's relatives." Chun Tao said, "We must treat them well."
After saying that, he glanced at Qixing gratefully, turned around and went out.
Seven Stars smiled and said, "If you want to entertain, you can entertain, and you can finish the food you have at home—"
Speaking of which, he glanced at the pheasant.
The pheasant took over, "I'll go and unload what we bought."
She got up and walked out, and there was a noisy shout of excuses and thank-you in the courtyard, and the stove room was bustling.
This is a family where mother and daughter depend on each other has never been lively.
Meng Xichang listened silently for a moment, thanked Qixing, and said, "The matter of the Rolling Earth Dragon, sure enough, the Seven Masters came in person."
Qixing said, "Earlier, I saw that the news that the bandits were impersonating Momen was passed by you, so I thought that you should be nearby, so I thought that when the Rolling Dragon rescued you, it was you who led away the officers and soldiers, right?"
Meng Xichang nodded, "It's me." He smiled again, "It's an honor to help."
Qixing looked at Meng Xichang's right hand: "This hand is..."
Meng Xichang didn't hide it, and generously pulled up his sleeve with his left hand: "It's okay, it's just a broken hand."
The sleeves are pulled up, revealing the remaining half of the forearm.
Meng Xichang gestured on his arm: "Thanks to the timely rescue of the eldest mother and Chun Tao, they helped me hire a doctor, and spent a lot of money on medicine, otherwise the whole arm would not be saved, and now it is like this-"
He shook his bare forearms.
"It's just a little missing, which is good."
Chun Tao and Qing Pheasant also walked in with food at this time, and when they heard this, they both sighed in their hearts.
Without hands, what's the difference between having an extra arm and a less?
These are words of comfort to yourself and others.
Qixing raised his hand to support Meng Xichang's wrist, looked carefully under the oil lamp, and nodded: "Yes, this is indeed very good."
Chun Tao was stunned, but the pheasant was fine, she knew that what Miss said sometimes sounded strange.
Meng Xichang laughed and said, "The bad thing is that without my hands, I can no longer be chivalrous and righteous like before."
Having said that, he did not secretly feel sad, but only expressed regret.
Qixing nodded: "I just thought of this, according to Meng Xia's temperament, you will definitely take matters into your own hands when you encounter that kind of thief, but this time I only sent a message, so I guessed that you were in trouble."
It turned out to be the case, so she came here, Meng Xichang looked at the girl sitting opposite, although he knew that Momen helped each other, although he never cared about human relations, and had always acted alone, but at this moment he was still inexplicably soft.
"Thank you." He said, smiling again, "However, don't sympathize with me in the seven masters, people in the rivers and lakes, life and death have long been put aside, not to mention that it's just one hand, I'm not sad and sad."
Chun Tao whispered, "Brother Ah Shui's chivalrous heart is there, and he can still be chivalrous."
Meng Xichang laughed, "Miss Chun Tao is right."
Seven stars picked up the tea bowl.
Meng Xichang picked up his tea bowl with his left hand, touched it lightly, and the two of them drank it all.
"However, I'm not welcome to the Seven Masters." He said, "The eldest lady and Chun Tao saved me, and I couldn't repay me empty-handed, so I borrowed some money from the seven masters."
Chun Tao hurriedly said, "Brother Ah Shui, don't say that, we don't want you
of money."
Seven Stars had already said yes, "Money is not an issue, other than that, I can do something for you."
For him? Meng Xichang was slightly stunned, what is the matter?
Qixing reached out again and dragged his mutilated right arm, measuring his hand inch by inch, looking at it inch by inch.
She said, "I'll make you a hand."
......
......
When Qixing and Pheasant returned home, Mrs. Yang's maidservant Mengchan sat in the courtyard and cut shoes with Aunt Guo.
Seeing the two of them entering the door, Meng Chan smiled and asked, "Is it fun to step on spring?" You've gone far enough this time."
Seven Stars smiled and said, "It's not the same as the spring over there, it's not the same as our flavor."
That's enough, Meng Chan won't ask where she went and what she saw, and she didn't come to gossip.
"We're going back to Xucheng in a few days." She said, "Will you come with us?"
Qixing thanked: "I have taken a lot of embroidery work for the blessings of Mrs. Tuo and the old lady, and I have already sent a letter to Linglong Fang, waiting for their arrangement."
Meng Chan smiled and said happily: "Linglong Fang is going to open a branch in the capital, and you will be the shopkeeper."
Everyone has their own future, and Mengzen did not persuade again.
When Mrs. Yang set off, Qixing took the pheasant to see off in person, and after saying goodbye, the willows on the road were still there, and the eyes were green, and the pheasant was quite emotional.
"It's still winter when I came." She said, "In the blink of an eye, it's red and green."
She turned her head to look at Qixing again, she grew taller again after the New Year, changed into a spring shirt, and her waist was full of hand, but she didn't look slender, her shoulders and back were straight, and she was more and more handsome like green bamboo.
In a blink of an eye, the young lady is no longer the cowardly and miserable orphan girl in the Lu family, not only has she gained a firm foothold in Xucheng, but she can also help the owner open a branch in the capital.
......
......
"Come today, don't come today—"
Gao Xiaoliu picked up the petals and threw them out one by one.
The petals in the basket here are about to bottom out, and a shopkeeper comes in with a basket of flowers.
"Someone out there will do it for us." He whispered to the shopkeeper indoors, "Childe might as well go to the casino to gamble money, when the gambling money is still won, the girl scattered the money one by one, and lost all her money."
It's also expensive to buy so many flowers every day.
The shopkeeper indoors whispered comfortingly: "When it comes to summer, if you spend more, it will be cheaper."
It seems to be right, but what's not right, what the shop guy wants to say, he hears Gao Xiaoliu shouting "Hey-"
Then the man who was slumped against the window, as soft as a boneless, propped himself up, almost half of his body leaning out of the window.
Oh my God, Childe won't be able to wait for the summer, and the two shopkeepers hurriedly rushed over, hugging their legs one left and one right.
Gao Xiaoliu didn't plant it from the window, he grabbed the window spirit with one hand, waved it with the other, and the petals in his hand fell with it.
There were two women standing at the door of the Huixian Building on the street, and one of them raised her head, looked at the flying petals, and raised her hand to pinch them.
......
......
"An ink man? Female?"
In the dimly lit tent, the rich man asked.
Zhike nodded: "He is younger than his son, and he is very good-looking."
Speaking of which, I laughed.
"I wanted to go over and take a closer look, but Childe drove me away."
The rich man sighed and breathed a sigh of relief: "You don't have to buy flowers in the future, right? We don't have to turn the fairy house into a flower shop."
Zhike laughed and sighed: "Childe has never been out since he was a child, and he has no partners of the same age, and now when he sees such a person, no wonder he likes it." And curious, "I wonder what they're talking about?"
The rich man sighed, "No matter what he says, he must have thought it sounded good, and a smile bloomed on his face."
......
.......
Gao Xiaoliu looked upright and looked at the table in front of him.
"Why did you only order these dishes, you're welcome when you come home." He said.
The female voice on the other side said, "That's how you eat at home."
It's a straight little girl, Gao Xiaoliu raised his head and looked at the other side.
It's blue sky and daylight, the room is bright, it's not a night of drowsy life and death struggle, and this sister is no longer covered with a cloak and scarf.
She was wearing a cyan dress, and there were no ornaments on her head and ears, but in front of the glittering Gao Xiaoliu, she did not lose her color, but became more soft.
Gao Xiaoliu looked at her and was slightly stunned.
"Oh, you-" Gao Xiaoliu suddenly pointed at her, "I've seen it."
