Cui Wu looked at the sun and told Li Longyan that he and Wang San were going back to the village soon, and if they delayed a little longer, it was estimated that it would be dark when they returned to the village.

Li Longyan sighed, the two friends will be able to go home soon, but they don't know how long they will stay in this Baili Town.

He envied the two of them, but he didn't know that the two of them envied him even more, thinking that he had such a good kung fu, and he could still live in the Feixue Gang, and he could deal with those powerful people every day, how fascinating!

Sending off the two friends, Li Longyan wandered around the east of the town alone for a while, and suddenly remembered that the mother-in-law said yesterday that she and the girl named Xiaofei were in the thyme flower shop in the east of the town.

Taking out the red bracelet in his arms, Li Longyan secretly put it on his wrist, and his face couldn't help but feel a little hot.

He walked down the street, looking all the way to see where there were flower shops.

At this time, Li Longyan was wearing a green shirt, at a young age, his already delicate appearance added a bit of bookishness.

Turn the corner of the street, look to both sides, only to see the opposite side of a shop door full of flowers, the shop hung a plaque, on the book "thyme" three big characters, the flower shop door a girl is sitting there, bowing her head to weave something.

Li Longyan's heart was a little inexplicably fast, he wandered in place twice, and then walked to the opposite side.

When I approached and looked at the girl, she was knitting a few straws with a ring or something. The girl's fingers were nimble, and a few sticks of grass were wrapped around her hand, and in a short time, a straw ring was almost formed.

Li Longyan took off his wide-brimmed hat, coughed, and smiled: "Xiaofei, what are you doing?"

The girl looked up, stunned for a moment, then stood up and exclaimed in surprise, "It's you...... Brother Long Yan! You changed your clothes, I almost didn't recognize you! You ...... How did you end up here?"

Li Longyan said: "Well, I heard that there is a big thing in the east of this town, come and see the excitement, and then ..... Then just walk around and see you here. ”

Xiao Fei smiled, lowered her head, and saw the red bracelet on Li Longyan's wrist, her face was flushed, and her eyes showed a look of joy.

Li Longyan smiled and said, "When I came over, you were knitting the ring, you knitted it so well!"

Xiaofei's face turned even redder, and said: "I'm playing blindly, I don't know if you watch it for a long time, it's really ......" She looked at Li Longyan and said angrily: "Brother Longyan, you are so bad, you don't tell me when you come, just watch it secretly from the side." ”

Li Longyan smiled and said, "I'm afraid of disturbing you! If you are distracted and this ring is broken and you want to cry to me, what should I do?"

Xiao Fei grinned and said, "Then you buy it, and you should pay me for it." ”

Li Longyan said: "Okay, you will deceive me! However, I see that your ring is not badly knitted, and you will not suffer a loss if you buy it, give it to me, how much does it cost?"

Xiao Fei pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "I'm joking with you! If you want it, I'll give it to you, no money." This kind of ring, you can buy several for a penny, and it's not worth much. I bought it for fun and wore it for a day or two, and then threw it away. ”

Li Longyan's heart moved, looking at the flower shop platform, there were still a lot of this kind of straw rings and straw bracelets, which were obviously made up by Xiaofei one by one. Looking at Xiaofei's simple clothes and thin body, thinking of the way she was engrossed in weaving just now, Li Longyan's heart suddenly swelled with indescribable sadness and pity.

took the ring handed over by Xiaofei and put it on his finger, just enough to put it on. Li Longyan praised: "Xiaofei, you are so good, this ring is so well braided!"

Xiao Fei showed a happy and smug look in her eyes, she took Li Longyan's hand, looked at the appearance of wearing the ring, and said, "Originally, there was a small flower tied to it, but you are a big man, forget it!"

After that, he looked up at Li Longyan, and suddenly found that Li Longyan's clear eyes showed a gentle expression, his heart jumped, and he slowly let go, and his face instantly turned red to his neck.

Li Longyan said: "You give you a bracelet and a ring, I will take advantage of it! Otherwise, I will also give you something." He took the silver chain from his neck, handed it to Xiaofei, and said, "This is what my mother gave me when I was a child, and I gave it to you." ”

The silver chain and the silver medal tied to it are made of pure silver, and if it is not extremely expensive, it is worth some money. Xiaofei took it and looked at it, and said, "This picture is so well carved, there are swallows and weeping willows, it looks like the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River!"

Li Longyan was slightly surprised and said, "Do you know the scenery of Jiangnan? Have you ever been to Jiangnan?"

Xiaofei nodded and said, "I was originally born in Hangzhou, Jiangnan. When I was seven years old, my parents fell ill and died, leaving me alone, and several relatives helped me for a while, and then I ...... There was less relief, and then I met my mother-in-law, who took me up. My mother-in-law and I have been to many places over the years, and we only came here at this time last year. That's a year. ”

Li Longyan listened to her accent, and it was really similar to her parents.

Xiaofei said: "Brother Long Yan, this chain was given to you by your mother, is your mother also from Jiangnan?"

Li Longyan nodded and said: "Yes, my parents are from Jiangnan, and when I was a child, I was also born in Hangzhou, Jiangnan. So, we're still fellow countrymen!haha!"

Xiaofei said with a smile: "As the saying goes, when a fellow sees a fellow countryman, his eyes are full of tears, should we hug his head and cry?"

Li Longyan laughed, he saw that this Xiaofei was very funny, and he added a little love.

What is especially rare is that from Xiaofei's story just now, he knew that Xiaofei was not very happy in childhood, and later followed the mother-in-law and did not live a good life, but even so, she still failed to wear away her vitality and optimism.

Well, in the fourteen or fifteen-year-old flower season, even if life is hard, there is always laughter.

Xiaofei played with the silver chain for a while, then returned it to Li Longyan, and said: "Brother Longyan, this silver chain is too valuable, I can't ask for it; besides, this is what your mother gave you when you were a child, I heard that adults wear these things for children, it is to protect the peace, you should still wear it." ”

Li Longyan took the silver chain and said with a smile: "Since it is to protect peace, then I want to give it to you." If you wear it, you will have good luck every day, and you will not meet bad people. ”

Thinking of yesterday's events, Xiaofei sighed and said, "The bad guys in the world can't hide. Brother Long Yan, thank you for saving me yesterday, if it weren't for you, my mother-in-law and I don't know what would have happened now!"

Li Longyan said: "That's nothing. If someone bullies you in the future, I will help you beat him the same. The bad guys can't hide anymore, so you don't have to hide, see one and beat the other. Oh, you hold this chain. ”

In front of the girls, Li Longyan also acted as a hero, and his words were full of arrogance, with a look of contempt for the world.

Xiao Fei sneered, but didn't take the silver chain, only said: "You are so powerful, even adults can beat you, by the way, how many times did you get hurt from them yesterday?"

Li Longyan pouted and said, "No! They are too small to beat me, so they beat me more than a dozen times, and I can stand it!"

With this courage, Li Longyan became bold, grabbed Xiaofei's hand, put the silver chain into her hand, and said: "Don't shirk it, I gave it to you sincerely, if you don't want it, it's ...... You just don't think of me as a friend!"

Seeing his anxious pale face, Xiaofei hesitated for a moment, and finally took the silver chain, she glanced at Li Longyan, then lowered her head, and after a while, said in a low voice: "Thank you, Brother Longyan...... You've treated me so well!"

Li Longyan saw that her long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she wanted to cry sadly, and she couldn't bear it in her heart. He laughed, "Don't just thank me, put it on and let me see." ”

Xiaofei smiled and nodded, turned half of her body, swept up the long hair on the back of her head, put the silver chain on her neck, and half of her face felt Li Longyan's enthusiastic gaze, and turned red again.

When she turned around, Li Longyan nodded again and again, and praised: "Not bad, it's much better than me wearing! Well, this silver chain is too ordinary, and it is not worthy of you." ”

Xiao Fei's cheeks were smiling, her eyes were shining brightly, and her face was like a flower. She said: "Brother Long Yan, you are too good at praising people, I am so ugly, but I can trample this chain." ”

Li Longyan smiled and said: "Are you ugly, if you are ugly, there will be no beautiful women in the world!" He tried his best to praise, just wanted to make Xiaofei happy, in fact, although Xiaofei was born quite beautifully, but due to the pressure of life, long-term nourishment is insufficient, and some of them are yellow and thin, and they are still young and have not yet achieved their figures, so they can't be called beautiful at the moment.

But the words of praise are happy after all, Xiaofei has no friends of the same age in her life, and now she is suddenly praised by a handsome young man of the same age, and she can't help but be happy in her heart, and she is a little faintly proud.

She saw Li Longyan standing there, sighed, moved her stool in front of Li Longyan, and said, "I'm really stupid, you've been standing for a long time, and I don't know how to give you a seat." Li Longyan said: "It's okay, I'm not tired." Xiao Fei said, "You wait a while." "Run to the store.

After coming out after a while, she carried a stool in one hand and a bowl of water in the other, and said to Li Longyan: "Brother Longyan, drink a bowl of water." Put the stool next to Li Longyan and sit down next to him.

Li Longyan took the bowl of water and saw a few petals floating on the water, exuding a faint fragrance. He drank it in one gulp and said, "Xiaofei, is this flower shop opened by you and your mother-in-law?

Xiaofei sighed: "We have a rich flower shop! This is someone else's flower shop, and my mother-in-law and I are only here to help." My mother-in-law is sleeping at this time, and she has the habit of taking a nap. ”

Li Longyan said: "You have grown so big, has it always been your mother-in-law who has taken you?"

Xiaofei said: "Yes, I met my mother-in-law when I was a child. I was nine years old and was helping people in a laundry. Once, when I was walking in the store with a lot of clothes, I accidentally swept an inkstone, which fell to the ground and shattered, and the ink stained the ground, and the boss scolded me fiercely and wanted to deduct my salary. Later, when I stopped working, I sat in front of the store and cried secretly, and my mother-in-law happened to pass by and asked me why I was pitiful. She chatted with me and asked me if I would like to go with her, saying that with her, I would have a good life in a few years. I didn't see my mother-in-law like a bad person, so I agreed to follow her. ”

Li Longyan was surprised: "You didn't know your mother-in-law at that time, so you agreed to go with her?"

Xiao Fei let out a long sigh and said, "What can I do? I'm alone anyway, and it's the same when I get there." Besides, the owner of the laundry was necrotic, not to mention the little salary, and scolded people at every turn, when my mother-in-law wanted to take me away, the month was almost over, but when he heard that I was leaving, he didn't give me a penny, and I did it for nothing that month. Forget it, I can't compete with him, and it's better to leave early than to stay there and be angry. ”

When Li Longyan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a wave of anger in his heart, only to feel that the boss was also hateful. I also think that Xiaofei is alone, working to support herself, and she has to suffer day and night;
