Chapter 45: Celery
I wanted to squeeze in Kunzi's place, but it seems that it would be better to open a room again. Zhou Lin went downstairs to find Song Xiaoyun, Song Xiaoyun was wiping his wine glass, Song Xiaoyun saw the tear stains on Zhou Lin's clothes at first sight, but pretended not to see it, revealing a warm smile: "What else do you need?"
Zhou Lin said: "If it's the first acquaintance, your style is just right, if it's an acquaintance, you have done something." ”
Song Xiaoyun blinked and said, "Are we very familiar with each other?" ”
Zhou Lin stretched out his hand and said, "Zhou Lin, Shuangmu Lin." ”
Song Xiaoyun shook Zhou Lin's hand: "I think we're very familiar now, what's the matter with that ball on your clothes?"
Zhou Lin glared at him, and asked what is the lump on his clothes.
Zhou Lin talked about what happened just now, both of them were gentlemen, and Zhou Lin had nothing to hide. After listening to this, Song Xiaoyun nodded and said, if she can really go to the Yang family, it is her creation, and she will thank Brother Zhou.
Zhou Lin asked, "Why are you thanking me?"
Song Xiaoyun said: "I have always regarded Xiaoqin as my sister. ”
Zhou Lin said: "Coincidentally, I also treat Xiaoqin as my sister." Both laughed. Celery dealt them a good guy card on the front foot, and now they return a sister card.
Zhou Lin approached Song Xiaoyun mysteriously and asked, "Brother Song, do you know Aqing from Hongwa Village, have you ever stood behind the curtain wall?"
Song Xiaoyun immediately showed a knowing smile: "It turns out that Brother Zhou is interested in Aqing's sister-in-law, this woman has never been to my store, it is said that every time she comes to Shiyan Town, she is in a hurry, she buys salt and leaves, but it seems that she has not been to the town for more than half a year." This woman said that she was very spicy and very good at fighting. If Brother Zhou wants her, I'm afraid I won't be able to help. ”
Zhou Lin was relieved a lot and explained: "Brother Song misunderstood, Aqing is my brother's daughter-in-law. As he spoke, he pointed to his head, "I'm afraid that my brother will have more hats on his head." ”
Song Xiaoyun first made a look of surprise, then nodded, and then the smile on his face made people feel that he was very underwhelmed.
Zhou Lin asked Song Xiaoyun to open another room for himself, and before going upstairs, Zhou Lin asked Song Xiaoyun, "I told Brother Song so much, Brother Song won't charge me information confidentiality fees, right?" Song Xiaoyun said that the confidentiality fee is valid for five thousand years.
When Zhou Lin opened the door the next day, Xiaoqin stood in the corridor outside the door, holding a tray with two fruit shells in the tray. Xiaoqin changed her clothes, with a blue bottom and a floral top, a pair of black loose cloth pants on her lower body, and a pair of black cloth shoes on her feet. A girl from a landlord's wealthy family, just stood quietly with low eyebrows. Seeing Zhou Lin come out, Xiaoqin smiled and said, "Sir, I'm bringing you breakfast." The smile was restrained. Zhou Lin asked if he had eaten it? Xiaoqin replied that he had eaten it. Zhou Lin went to pick up the tray, and Xiaoqin insisted on sending it into the room by herself. This girl is really a maid's life, Zhou Lin has to let her go, and he will call Kunzi for breakfast.
During the meal, Zhou Lin and Kunzi were sitting, but Xiaoqin insisted on standing. Kunzi said, "Sister, you sit down, we can't eat when you stand." Xiao Qin sat down on the chair next to Zhou Lin, sitting very carefully, only the little half of her buttocks were on the chair, her legs together, and her hands were on her knees helplessly. Kunzi said again, "Sister, aren't you blocking us, how can we eat?" Zhou Lin looked at Kunzi, this was not a Kunzi who was reluctant to speak in the face of strangers, maybe his empathetic emotional perception of Xiaoqin last night made him feel close to this girl, and maybe pity and sympathy. It seems that Xiaoqin is going to have another brother again. Zhou Lin said to Xiaoqin, "Xiaoqin, don't call me Mr. in the future, there are only nine gentlemen in Jiuqiu, so you can call me Brother Lin Zi." Kunzi also said, "Call me Brother Kunzi, whoever dares to bully you in the future, brother will beat him." Zhou Lin was happy in his heart, and it was true.
Breakfast was porridge, both of them drank quickly, and when the husks were almost empty, Zhou Lin thought that something was wrong, and he asked Xiaoqin if there was breakfast included in the accommodation here. Xiaoqin shook her head, and Zhou Lin reprimanded her with a straight face, and she only had a few seeds in her pocket, and she began to spend indiscriminately. Xiaoqin was about to cry, she just wanted to repay why Brother Lin Zige was angry. Zhou Lin's tone softened, "Xiaoqin, we are elder brothers, do we need to repay my brother for doing something for my sister?" Xiaoqin nodded. Zhou Lin lost his temper, he said to Xiaoqin seriously, "We don't need you to reciprocate anything, you can live happily, it is the best reward for us." Xiaoqin's tears flowed down again. Zhou Lin walked over, wiped her tears, and got closer, only to find that there were many needles and threads on her clothes, Zhou Lin frowned, but was looked at by Xiaoqin, who raised her head.
Xiao Qin helped clean up, taking away the tray and leftover husks. Before leaving, she said the location of her house, and the two promised to go over to visit the door after they were busy.
Mr. Five's house is not far from Chunmanlou, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk. In Shiyan Town, which is generally two or three storeys, Mr. Five's bungalow courtyard looks very inconspicuous, and the courtyard walls and gate are very ordinary, without any decoration. The courtyard gate was closed, and there was no one else in sight on the small street in front of the door, which was a little gloomy.
Zhou Lin stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door, but it was quiet inside, and there was no movement. Zhou Lin just knocked on the door over and over again, and when he knocked for the tenth time, there was a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, Zhou Lin took a step back and waited quietly. The door opened a crack, and Lao Yuan poked his head out, said "Mr. is not a guest" and closed the door again. Zhou Lin shouted outside the door, "Old Yuan, it's me." Lao Yuan replied behind the door, "I know it's you", and no sound came from there. Kunzi was so angry that he stepped forward to slam the door, but Zhou Lin grabbed him and said that he would come back tomorrow.
Xiaoqin's house is near Chunmanlou, the straight-line distance is less than 200 meters, and if you start from the gate of Chunmanlou, you can reach it by turning a few corners. Xiaoqin's house is a low grass house, lying quietly under a three-story building, outside the grass house is a small courtyard surrounded by low shrubs, and the fruity green skirt is drying in the small courtyard, and the skirt is still dripping with water. Kunzi called out to Sister Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin ran out of the room, her sleeves rolled up high, Brother Linzi, Brother Kunzi, why did you come back so soon? Only then did Zhou Lin notice that Xiaoqin did not have a bracelet on her hand.
followed Xiaoqin into the house, the furnishings in the house were simple, but it was also well-equipped. The grass house was Song Xiaoyun's former residence, and it has been idle there since the Spring Manlou was built, and it has not been returned. The grass house can't get back many energy points, and you have to ask the soul planter to help, and after removing the reward, there is almost nothing left. After Xiaoqin came, Song Xiaoyun gave it to Xiaoqin.
When Xiaoqin was busy, the three of them sat in the small courtyard and ate the fruit, and there were no tables and chairs in the small courtyard. Xiao Qin brought three small benches, and the fruit bowl containing the fruit was placed on the ground. Zhou Lin asked, Xiao Qin hasn't opened her soul wisdom yet, right? Xiao Qin shook her head. The Soul Initiation Pill and the Energy Bracelet are in the hands of Mr., and when someone needs to Inspire Soul, the village chief or town mayor will ask Mr. for it. There is no mayor in Shiyan Town, only the Salt Chamber of Commerce. Xiaoqin came late, Mr. Five closed his house for two years, and the weak girl from outside was not welcomed, so naturally no one cared about it. Zhou Lin said that if he could see Mr. Five, he would go to ask for a Soul Enlightenment Pill for Xiaoqin. Xiaoqin asked, "Can I become a soul master?" Zhou Lin said that he didn't know, it depended on talent. Xiaoqin let out an "oh". After a short cold scene, although the three of them said that their brothers and sisters shouted affectionately, after all, it was the first time they met, and there was still a sense of restraint.
Zhou Lin had to continue chatting, in fact, chatter was just his own definition, he talked a lot but rarely talked nonsense. He asked Xiaoqin, is your dress still the cotton one you worn? Xiaoqin was surprised that Brother Lin Zige knew everything, but Zhou Lin asked Song Xiaoyun why he didn't buy her a few more clothes.
Xiaoqin said: "Yes, that skirt was given to me by Brother Song." ”
Zhou Lin was surprised: "Just one?"
"Brother Song wanted to give me a few more clothes, but I didn't ask for it. ”
Zhou Lin asked why? Xiaoqin said that she was afraid that the sister-in-law of the Song family would be unhappy.
Zhou Lin laughed: "The house is all sent, how many clothes do you care about?"
Xiaoqin said: "The sister-in-law of the Song family only entered the door last year, and Brother Song had already done a lot of business at that time. She didn't know about this grass house. She knew that Brother Song took good care of me, and the clothes were visible. Zhou Lin smiled again, this little girl is really Yahuan's temperament and Yahuan's heart.
Zhou Lin asked: "Wufu still has jealous women?" Of course Zhou Lin knew that Wufu's women were also jealous, just like Aunt Tian, men would lose their temper when they ran out, but their bottom line was relatively high.
Xiaoqin said: "The sister-in-law of the Song family has not long come from her hometown. ”
Kunzi said on the side: "That Song glasses won't buy for you, my brother will buy them for you." ”
Xiaoqin glared at Kunzi, "Don't say that about Brother Song." Kunzi knew she had said the wrong thing. Compared with Brother Lin Zi, Xiaoqin is still very unfamiliar with Brother Kunzi.
Zhou Lin gently patted Xiaoqin's back and said comfortingly: "This Kunzi has no mouth, but he is an excellent person, so don't worry about it." We are not very familiar with Shiyan Town, or Xiaoqin will take us around. ”
Xiaoqin looked at the wet skirt, and hesitated, why don't we go again in the afternoon? Zhou Lin asked, Xiaoqin has something to do? Xiaoqin said, it's okay, I want to wait for the skirt to dry. Zhou Lin grabbed Xiaoqin's hand and pulled it up, and said, let's go, Xiaoqin is the most beautiful now. Xiaoqin asked, Brother Lin really doesn't like Xiaoqin's rustic? I saw you frowning in the morning. It turned out that the crux was here, Zhou Lin said, it was Brother Lin Zi's heartache for his little sister.
Coming out of a ready-to-wear store, Xiaoqin followed behind the two eldest brothers, still looking like a girl, but her steps were brisk, and her heart was unprecedentedly warm. Brother Lin Zi bought her more than a dozen clothes, and even bought a few sets of underwear that she had never worn, which was a little ashamed. She asked Brother Lin if her sister-in-law would be angry, but Brother Lin Zi said that if your sister-in-law is here, she will only buy you more.
Xiaoqin heard Brother Kun Zi asking Brother Lin Zi, when did you have a daughter-in-law, why didn't you say it? Brother Lin Zi said, because you never asked. Brother Kun Zi asked, where is it? Brother Kun Wu? Brother Lin Zige said, yes, she is the most considerate daughter-in-law in the world.
Xiaoqin thought, why do good men have daughters-in-law?
