Chapter 45: The old man is happy
After dinner, Xu Jiaorong and Bai Suzhen cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.
Xu Xian and the four of them sat there and continued to chat, Li Gongfu spoke humorously and knowledgeably, which made Ao Luan laugh and pestered Li Gongfu to tell him a story.
After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Xu Jiaorong walked over and said disdainfully: "What he said, you can believe it in three points." ”
Ao Luan hurriedly ran to Xu Jiaorong's side, and said coquettishly: "Sister Xu, can I stay at your house for a few more days? I can pay for food and accommodation, give, this is a high-quality jade pendant, carry it on your body all the year round, and you can still live without illness and life." ”
Xu Jiaorong took it and looked at it, then handed it to Ao Luan and said: "Little girl, I'm not old, my heart is not small, I don't lack your food, if you want to live for a few days, if you don't have money for food, put it away, don't lose it." ”
Ao Luan put away the jade pendant in a depressed mood, and then became happy again, and said: "Then give this hosta to my sister, you must accept it, I heard my parents say that you must pay for living in someone else's house." ”
Xu Jiaorong said with a smile: "Little girl, ghost elf, you are a friend of the green girl, naturally this is not someone else's home, just treat it as your own home, so you don't have to pay." ”
Ao Luan tilted his head and thought for a while, and muttered, "It seems to be true." ”
The others said directly, secretly saying that this little girl is too simple.
Xiaoqing glanced at Xu Jiaorong gratefully, since he came to the Li Mansion, he had never regarded this place as his home.
Hearing Xu Jiaorong's words today, her heart trembled, and a warm current flowed through the bottom of her heart, and her whole body was warm.
"Is this what home feels like?"
Xiaoqing originally kept a trace of distance from everyone else, even Xu Xian, and she didn't want to be too close.
But just now, she felt that the distance between her and the others had disappeared, completely gone.
Listening to Ao Luan's words again, it feels so pleasant and beautiful, and there is a feeling of enjoying it very much.
The ninety-nine scattered gourd in Xu Xian's sea of consciousness trembled slightly, and a clear sound sounded in his sea of knowledge.
Xu Xian looked up at the sky suddenly, and a dark cloud floated under the moon like a jade disk, and the dark cloud was extremely thick, like a divine dragon.
When Xu Xian raised his head, Bai Suzhen was also sensitive, looking at the dark clouds in the air.
The others were unaware and were still talking happily.
"The moon is really round tonight, but that dark cloud is too disappointing. Xu Xian muttered.
Bai Suzhen glanced at Xu Xian strangely and didn't think much about it.
"Official, why did you suddenly sigh? Did you encounter something?" Bai Suzhen asked softly.
Xu Xian shook his head and said, "No, it's just a moment of emotion." ”
The dark clouds drifted to the edge of the West Lake, turned into a black light and fell to the ground, and the black light dispersed, revealing two people.
A middle-aged man, an old man.
The middle-aged man was burly and tall, wearing a royal robe and a crown, and his body was full of steam, like the lord of all waters.
The old man was short in stature, wearing an official uniform, carrying a turtle shell, holding a white jade wat board in his hand, and stood respectfully beside the middle-aged man.
"You saw it all?"
The man wearing the crown had a grim expression, his eyes were shining, and he said coldly.
The old man's eyes were confused, and he nodded hurriedly for some reason, and said, "My subordinates have seen it, and they have all seen it." ”
"What do you see?"
The old man's eyelids didn't seem to be able to open, the whole person was confused, and when he heard the question, he hummed and chirped: "Well, what the king said is that the king is smart, the king is wise, and what the king sees, the little one sees, and sees everything." ”
The middle-aged man pointed at the old man, flicked his sleeves for the last time, and disappeared into a black light.
"You show me my little heart, and if anything goes wrong, never come back. ”
A voice that hit the heart echoed in the old man's ears, and the frightened old man hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king, the little one must let the little princess have fun, eat happily, do whatever she wants, and love it. ”
After a long time, the old man raised his head, his sleepy little eyes disappeared, and a pair of mung bean-sized eyes were spinning around, with a hint of light in his eyes.
He turned into an old man with white hair and white beard, wearing a blue robe and holding a wooden staff.
It's just that his body is still not straight, and he has a big bag on his back, as if he is carrying a pot.
"Hey, hey, I can finally rest freely, alas, my busy head is big. ”
The old man he, and then muttered: "What is my name? ”
Gui Chengxiang staggered forward, humming a little song in his mouth and heading towards Qiantang.
He took one step, a few feet, and soon disappeared on the edge of the West Lake.
When he came to the door of Li Gongfu's house, the song had not yet been hummed.
When he raised his hand and knocked on the door, he was suddenly stunned and muttered, "What should I call the little princess? ”
"Bang ......"
Everyone in the courtyard was chatting happily when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Xu Xian hurriedly walked over to open the door, and saw Gui Chengxiang standing at the door, looking around with small eyes.
"You are ......"
"Let me introduce myself, the contemptible people are here, and they are here to find our girl. ”
"Who is your girl? Why did you come to our house to find it? Are you in the wrong place?"
Gui Chengxiang hurriedly shook his head again and again, and said, "That's right, that's right, he's at your house." ”
"And what do you say her name is?"
Gui Chengxiang was stunned for a moment, and said, "Of course it's called Ao Luan? What's wrong? Do you suspect that I'm a human trafficker?"
Xu Xian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, I'm just confirming, it's great that you're here, we're trying to find a way to send her back, but she just won't go back, I'm afraid you'll be in a hurry." ”
"Send it back? no, no, just take it here, just take it, don't worry, don't worry, can I go in?" Gui Chengxiang spoke, pushed Xu Xian away, and walked in directly.
"Three...... cough cough cough, little male, cough cough cough, little girl, who do you see coming?"
Gui Chengxiang quietly came to the side of everyone and shouted at Ao Luan, who was chattering with his hands and feet.
"Prime Minister Turtle, are you really here? My father ......"
"Little girl, are you unhappy? Surprised, am I not powerful?"
Hearing Ao Luan's words, a layer of fine beads of sweat immediately oozed from Gui Chengxiang's brows, and he hurriedly interrupted the other party's words, waving his hands and feet again and again.
Ao Luan tilted his head and thought for a while: "I'm very happy, I'm very surprised, you're really amazing." ”
Listening to the conversation between the two living treasure characters and watching the movements of the two, everyone was a little confused.
Especially Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen, the two of them already knew Ao Luan's identity, and then listened to Ao Luan's name for the old man, so they naturally guessed the identity of the old man.
Xu Xian was also a little confused, did he feel that the two of them were a little too far ahead? This way of thinking and expression can be regarded as very fashionable in later generations, let alone in ancient times?
"Girl, this is your family? He's your ......."
Li Gongfu's words were interrupted before he finished speaking, and Gui Chengxiang hurriedly said: "I'll introduce myself first, the contemptible people call Gui Cheng Xiang, Angelica Gui, Successful Cheng, Collar Item, Gui Cheng Xiang, it's a little girl, grandpa, cough cough, yes, it's grandpa." ”
Li Gongfu suddenly felt a little unconvinced, and said vigilantly: "Who are you? Is it the girl's grandfather who still has to think about it? I think you are a human trafficker." ”
As he spoke, Li Gongfu ran into the house and took out a big knife, and pointed the tip of the knife at Gui Chengxiang.
Gui Chengxiang immediately became anxious, trotted behind Ao Luan, and said, "Girl, speak quickly, if you don't say anything, I will become a meat filling." ”
Ao Luan hurriedly stopped Li Gongfu and said: "Uncle, he is really my grandfather, my grandfather likes to play and joke, he is really not a bad person." ”
After watching Ao Luan for a long time, he found that the other party was not lying, nor was he persecuted, so he put the knife back into the sheath.
Under Ao Luan's introduction, everyone slowly accepted the existence of Gui Chengxiang.
