Chapter 20: Little Dumb

The boy's face was still hidden in the messy hair, and he couldn't see clearly, but his sharp eyes were like the most alert and sharp beasts.

Being stared at by these cold eyes, Qin Liu felt like a prey.

"Why?!" The boy's voice was short and powerful, with urging and impatience.

Qin Liu was so frightened that he blurted out: "You are a Tartar, you can kill!" ”

The young man said with a gloomy anger and compassion: "You saved me, I won't kill you." However, if you always work against me, it will be difficult for the old man and the two children of your family to speak......" The voice was still a little exotic.

Qin Liu's legs were a little weak, and he was about to cry: "Uncle, you raise your noble hand, they are cripples and children, and they haven't offended you......"

"Then you leave me."

Qin Liu forcibly calmed himself down: "You let me think about it." ”

The young man's breath became even colder, and his body leaned forward, like a wild wolf ready to hunt.

Qin Liu hid backwards and hurriedly said, "You can stay, you have to have conditions!" ”

"Say!"

"First, you can't meet people like this, guests and guests will be scared away! Second, you have to dress up as a Central Plains person, and you can't hurt me! ”

"Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps were heard in the lobby.

As soon as the young man's body stood up straight, the figure of Old Man Lou appeared at the kitchen door, and he still held his shoulders with his hands in his hands: "Shopkeeper, the kang is ready." ”

Qin Liu said in shock: "You sit down and wait for a while, the face will be fine immediately." ”

The noodles were already overcooked, but Qin Liu didn't have the heart to think about this, so he hurriedly scooped up the noodles, trembling and shaking his hands and poured the soup on it, and stacked the beef. She put the bowl on the tray to be served, but the boy picked up the tray and walked out.

"Bang dang!"

The tray was placed heavily on the table, and the sound made Qin Liu in the kitchen tremble.

What a scourge left in the store!

Qin Liu hid in the kitchen and didn't dare to go out at all.

She tried to calm herself down, suppressed the trembling and brushed the pot.

After a while, Old Man Lou entered the kitchen with a tray, Qin Liu wanted to take the bowl and brush it, but was avoided by Old Man Lou: "Shopkeeper, I can't help it!" ”

Old man Lou brushed the bowl with the water in the basin, but he was a little unskilled and didn't know where to find water to rinse.

Qin Liu unscrewed the switch of the porcelain faucet, and the water flowed out of the faucet, and Old Man Lou was surprised.

He didn't say anything, put the dishes and chopsticks away, and said respectfully: "Shopkeeper, you go to rest first, and I'll wipe the hall again." ”

Qin Liu saw that the Tartar boy appeared at the door of the kitchen again, his heart tightened again, and his mouth was dry: "This, this is the new guy." I'm not busy today, so I'll get up tomorrow morning and get back to work. ”

Old man Lou arched his hand towards the young man, and said to Qin Liu: "My house is a big kang, let the little brother sleep in the same room with me, and it will save you from burning two kangs and spending more firewood." ”

Qin Liu was naturally willing, but she was afraid that the young man of the Tartar would not be willing, so she glanced at the young man with a weak heart, and saw that his aura around him was constricted, and he really looked like a down-and-out beggar at this time, so she said: "If you have no opinion, I have no opinion." ”

Qin Liu married the futon from the treasury and let Old Man Lou pick it up, took the two to the door of the hut in the backyard, and said, "You guys rest." ”

Old man Lou bowed and entered the house, but the Tartar boy shouted to Qin Liu, who turned around to leave: "Do you have any new clothes?" ”

Does Qin Liu dare to say no?

She said, "I'll get it." ”

Li Laohan made a new cotton jacket and cotton pants this year, and she was not willing to wear it, so she gave it to this tartar first, and then turned back to Li Laohan to make a new one.

Qin Liu took out Old Man Li's clothes, shoes and socks inside and out, and was just about to go out to see that the Tartar boy had already turned to the front and entered the east wing.

Qin Liu followed, and the Tartar boy had already begun to undress.

She hurriedly put her clothes on the stool next to her and exited the east wing.

Hearing the movement of scooping water inside, Qin Liu thought about it and reminded: "If you want to take a bath, there are shower things in the house, as well as bath beans, which are hot water." ”

The Tartar boy stopped scooping water and walked out of the east wing.

She feared that the Tartars would bathe in the east wing, and that the floor would be full of water and that many of the things she had worked so hard to buy would be damaged.

Li Laohan and Da Lang Erlang had already fallen asleep, Qin Liu didn't dare to disturb them, let the Tartar boy into his Westhouse shower room, and briefly introduced how to use it.

She herself went to the east wing and added a few handfuls of firewood to the boiler to ensure the supply of hot water.

The Tartar boy returned to the backyard hut after taking a bath, Qin Liu cleaned up, carried Erlang back to the West House, and finally fell asleep.

She hadn't slept for a long time, secretly laughing at her stupidity and cowardice.

At present, it is the Tartar soldiers who have a request for themselves, and they need to use their own stores to cover their identities. As long as I don't offend him, I should be fine.

As the Tartar said, he saved him!

Old man Lou is not afraid of that tartar at all, and Sister Ma Feng is not afraid either, why is he so afraid of jackals?

It was still the death of Da Lang's mother that frightened me.

The blood all over the ground, the big eyes that were blinding, and the half-cut off head was loosely attached to the body......

Qin Liu sighed, planning to deal with it carefully, and wait for this tartar to get tired of leaving by himself.

The old and weak women and children in her room really can't afford to offend ruthless people.

The next day, Qin Liu got up at the usual time, dressed Erlang who had woken up and handed it to Li Laohan and Li Dalang, who had already gotten up, and was about to make breakfast, but saw Old Man Li enter the house with a large tray of steaming steamed buns, and the Tartar boy behind him was holding a pot of steaming millet porridge in his hand.

Old man Lou smiled respectfully: "The shopkeeper got up, and I made breakfast." ”

Qin Liu was amazed at the diligence and initiative of this old man Lou, and hurriedly welcomed them into the main house.

Qin Liu helped put the food on the small table, and said to the old man Lou and the Tartar boy who were about to go out, "Sit down and eat together." ”

She quickly went to the kitchen to make two cold dishes - one cold cabbage and one sauce beef. Dude is new, so the dishes are hearty.

When the cold dishes were brought into the house, Li Laohan took his two children, Old Man Lou and Tartar Boy were eating steamed buns and drinking porridge.

Qin Liu beckoned everyone to eat vegetables: "It's not healthy to eat staple food, eat more vegetables and meat." ”

She introduced Old Man Lou and Tartar to Old Man Li and Erlang Lang: "This is Uncle Lou, this is, uh, little mute, I will help the store in the future." ”

Li Laohan chatted with Old Man Lou and the Tartar boy in a simple and kind manner.

Old man Lou answered all questions and had a very happy conversation with Old Man Li. The Tartar boy really looked like a mute, not saying a word, just eating.

Qin Liu saw that the Tartar boy was sitting on a small bench at this time, eating peacefully, wearing a cotton jacket that didn't fit well, he looked more and more long hands and feet, and his hair was messy to cover his face, and he was slightly relieved.

At this time, it seems that the Tartar boy is just a peasant boy who looks similar to Ma Yue, and he is a little unkempt.

Da Lang stared at the Tartar boy curiously, and enthusiastically handed him a steamed bun.

The tartar boy actually smiled at Da Lang, who smiled back shyly.

Erlang did the same, took a steamed bun, and staggered over with his short legs and handed the steamed bun to the tartar boy.
