The lonely man and widow are at the age of marriage, not only Luo Gan's mind is turbulent, but Dong Xiaoling is a little unconsciously leaning out to the side.

During these days, Luo Gan's care for Dong Xiaoling was in her eyes, and she asked if there was any man in this world who could be so good to her besides her brother? She rubbed her palm hot and leaned under Luo Gan's short brown. Luo Gan instantly stiffened and moved to the side.

His head burned in a daze, but he didn't understand what Dong Xiaoling was doing.

"Brother Luo Gan. ”

Luo Qian took a deep breath and spit it out, "Xiao Ling, I said that I would treat you like my own sister." ”

The people around him fell into silence for a long time, and Luo Gan wrapped the rags that barely blocked the wind, and the night was over. He didn't sleep deeply, and he woke up not long after the pharmacy on the street opened.

Dragging his numb legs, Luo Gan woke up Dong Xiaoling, and the two of them walked towards the pharmacy together. Dong Xiaoling cowered and hid behind, just at this time, a plainly dressed girl went out with a dustpan. She ducked aside in fear, but the girl didn't say anything to chase them.

The two of them froze to the side, and the girl who took out the garbage looked at them strangely as she walked back. "Is it to see a doctor?"

The girl in the pharmacy actually took the initiative to call them into the pharmacy.

This pharmacy is not big, located in an inconspicuous corner of the street, and in addition to the girl, there are also old and young people who are busy working.

As soon as she entered the house, the girl shouted at the old and young, "The patient is here! Old man Luo should stop embroidering and come out to see a doctor." ”

Luo Gan, who was weak and weak, was pressed to sit on the chair by the girl, and he put away his hand, for fear that the mud on his sleeve would get on the table.

"Got it, got it, it really is. Old man Luo scolded and threw down the embroidery that he had only gotten today, and dragged the young man who was watching to come over to see Luo Gan.

While diagnosing Luo, he also gave a lecture to the teenager. By the time he finally grasped the medicine, Luo Gan was already drowsy.

Dong Xiaoling put on his old robe, she knew that it was time to pay for the medicine.

The girl roughly calculated, the medicine money was twenty yuan, and Dong Xiaoling still lacked a few yuan in hand. She discharged the dozen cents and panicked.

Who knew that the girl in this pharmacy took it and counted twenty wen, and enthusiastically asked the young man to help them boil medicine, and took Luo Gan to the back room to rest.

Although the girl said that she was afraid of blocking the guests, Dong Xiaoling's heart was warm. She used to think that the people outside were as evil as Sanli Village, but it turned out that wicked people could only be seen in Sanli Village.

Dong Xiaoling offered to help the girl take care of the patient, and the two girls of average age got together and chatted a lot. The girl is called Lin Zhinian, who was sold to the landlord's house by her father and mother at the age of ten, escaped by her wit, and was rescued by Lao Langzhong and stayed in the pharmacy since then.

Dong Xiaoling greatly admired the cleverness of the ruling year, after all, she relied on Luo Qian to get here. There were not many people who came to the pharmacy, the two girls chatted to their heart's content, and Old Man Luo unscrupulously started embroidery again, pricking up his ears from time to time to eavesdrop.

Lin Zhinian quietly asked about the relationship between Dong Xiaoling and Luo Gan, Dong Xiaoling lowered his head shyly, "What should I say......?"

"Hee-hee, needless to say, I know. ”

"I ...... Nothing ...... "wishful thinking, Dong Xiaoling doesn't know how to say it."

"Actually," Lin Zhinian put on her ear, "I made a marriage contract with his son after I was rescued by Lao Langzhong." ”

"Ahh

"My parents moved away and didn't want me, so who else could I rely on. Although the marriage contract was made, he has been living in seclusion all these years, I don't know where he lives, and no one has seen him except Lao Langzhong. Later, the old man fell ill and died. Lin Zhinian felt sorry for Dong Xiaoling's experience, and he didn't know what the future would be, "But he gave me a letter, saying that he would only be good to me in this life." Moreover, they will come to me to get married at the beginning of spring next year. ”

Dong Xiaoling breathed a sigh of relief and said that it was good, and his tone was a little sour.

"I don't know what kind of person he is. ”

The two girls look forward to an ethereal future together, and they don't know the fate that is quietly coming.

Dong Xiaoling guessed that according to Luo Gan's temperament, he would definitely not be able to stay, and sure enough, after sleeping peacefully, he was ready to resign. He didn't want to go to Lin Zhinian's help, and offered to do things for them.

Old man Luo finally put down the embroidery and arranged a task for him as he wished: first bath and change clothes.

Everyone was puzzled, but Old Man Luo hoped that Luo Gan could wash himself first and then wash the bedding he had been lying on. Luo Gan didn't say a word, and followed the boy out.

Dong Xiaoling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, she liked to stay in Lin Zhinian's pharmacy, it was freezing outside, and she had to sleep on the street when she went out. The girl's family is soft and weak, how can she endure the hardships of wandering?

In fact, Old Man Luo arranged a series of tasks, and Luo Gan began to be busy all day.

Seeing that Luo Gan had taken care of the cleaning, pouring water, laundry, and cooking, Lin Zhinian simply took Dong Xiaoling out on the street to play.

There aren't many places to play in the girl's house, and neither of them has much money on them, just to see the lively life of others.

But the crowded stalls sell stinky tofu that is popular all over the city and is inexpensive, Dong Xiaoling has never eaten this thing, so Lin Zhinian volunteered to go in and buy stinky tofu. Stinky tofu is notorious, Dong Xiaoling was smoked far away, and he was secretly surprised in his heart, how could such a stinky thing be so cute!

Lin Zhinian's small body squeezed into it hard, but he couldn't squeeze in, and his funny appearance made Dong Xiaoling laugh. When she covered her mouth and snickered, she heard a breezy male voice sounding next to her:

"Hey, I can't squeeze in. ”

When she looked up, she saw that the man who spoke was wearing a soapy scarf and a wide-sleeved robe, and this tall man was standing next to her. Dong Xiaoling's whole person was blocked in a shadow, and when she saw the smile on the man's lips, she couldn't help but lose her mind.

"Huh, girl?" the man noticed her, "do you want to eat stinky tofu too?"

"I ...... Never eaten. ”

The man put up his hands and sighed, "I still have to get up early in the future, and I can eat stinky tofu when I get up early." ”

Dong Xiaoling hung her head and pursed her lips and smiled, she had never seen such a son.

"Our Lin family actually has tofu to eat, but it's not stinky. The man looked at her with a smile on his face. Dong Xiaoling's face was reddened by the staring, and he said weakly: "It's good if it doesn't stink! It's so stinky, I really don't know how to eat it." ”

"Then ......" The man took out a jade plaque and blocked Dong Xiaoling with his wide body, and at the same time put the jade plaque in her hand, "Take this, come to Rujia Restaurant to find me tonight." ”

"I'll take you to eat fragrant and big hot tofu!" the man smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

The jade plate was engraved with words, and Dong Xiaoling was illiterate. But she wasn't going to tell anyone about it. Secretly hidden, when Lin Zhinian bought two stinky tofu back, she no longer had the heart to try the kind of fragrant experience that Lin Zhinian said.

......

After Luo Gan finished all the chores for Old Man Luo, he really decided to leave, even though Lin Zhinian proposed that he could exchange one day's work for one day's food and lodging. Dong Xiaoling was very reluctant in his heart, and hinted in every possible way that he wanted Lin Zhinian to keep people, and between the two sides of the dispute, they each compromised one step. At least one more night.

Lin Zhinian is very reluctant to give up Dong Xiaoling, a girl who is easily shy, in her eyes, Luo Qian is like a stinky and hard stone, except for the cooking skills, she is better than anyone else.

Seeing the busy figure in the kitchen, Old Man Luo hugged the young man and cried bitterly, "In my lifetime, I can finally pick up a cook for nothing...... "Yes, grandpa, the big brother doesn't talk much, and the stir-fry is first-class, and it's ...... Will also repair the roof!"

In fact, this is the real reason why Old Man Luo kept Luo Gan, and after a day of trial, they were very satisfied with this all-round logistician.

It doesn't have to be everything, in their hearts, it is perfect to be able to eat Lin Zhinian's dishes, and the salary is also small......

Before dinner began, the three of them got together to discuss how to keep the cook. The first plan proposed by Lin Zhinian was to start with Dong Xiaoling, on the grounds that the relationship between the two of them was different.

"What's the difference?" the boy with the nickname Sixteen asked stupidly.

Old man Luo was braiding his long beard with his flexible ten fingers, "The relationship between Lin Zhinian and Master." ”

"What are you talking about, old man!"

"I'm talking about the facts, aren't you going to marry your master?" Old man Luo looked fearless, after all, his head was already bald, and Lin Zhinian was no longer the girl who dared to pull her hair.

"Hmph!" Lin Zhinian and his fiancé are just nominal masters and apprentices, and the two have never met, so they have formed such a relationship. When she sulked, she suddenly remembered that Dong Xiaoling was not by her side, and she was sure that the two of them came back together.

sent Xiao Sixteen to look for Dong Xiaoling, but he searched all the houses but couldn't find it. Luo Gan, who had cooked the dishes, was not too excited when he heard that Dong Xiaoling was gone, which made Lin Zhinian a little surprised.

The four of them decided to finish their meal and go out to find someone.

......

They were looking for people on the street, but naturally they couldn't find Dong Xiaoling on the bed of the noble son.

After a long time, Dong Xiaoling didn't know how he got to this point.

At a young age, she knew that beauty could be exchanged for money, and if it weren't for the timely appearance of the old beggar, her room would have been filled with many people.

However, the old beggar appeared, and not only gave them food and clothing, but also secretly passed on to them the jar of self-defense. What was in that jar, Dong Xiaoling didn't know. The old beggar told them that if the jar was placed under Dong Xiaoling's bed, the man who coveted her would go crazy. If one day the people of the village want to drive them away, then drip their own blood into it, so that they can avenge themselves.

How revenge was avenged, Dong Xiaoling couldn't see it. What she could see was that although she left with Luo Gan, who was honest and willing to take care of her, her life was worse than before.

I have eaten the leftovers of other people's alms, slept in the garbage heap, and robbed the offerings of the lord of the land...... She went to the river and saw that her beauty was not diminished by poverty. Why did God treat her like this? If she could follow this man for a moment of spring supper, and the two of them would get married and suffer a little, she would be willing.

But this man actually thinks of himself as his sister......

If it weren't for Dong Xiaoling's normal reaction to see a man, she would almost suspect that Luo Gan had entered the palace. When she was woken up by Luo Gan's dream at night, she realized that Luo Gan would dream of a woman every day and call that name every day.

The first time she met her son lingered in the huge room, she soaked in the petal bath for the first time, wore soft and close-fitting fabric for the first time, and saw someone stare at her with loving eyes for the first time.

The son is like a breeze and a moon, muttering about ice and jade, playing with women in the palm of his hand.
