Quick Wear: Who said soft girls have to be obedient! biu!

Si Qin came back to his senses, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "No... I didn't think about anything."

He observed Gu Zhen several more times. She was so good at pretending to be a boy that it was hard to tell. She was much better than her "brother". However, Si Qin could still make out some clues with a known eye.

Later, every time he faced Gu Zhen, Si Qin became a little shy, but he admired her even more. In Si Qin's heart, Gu Zhen had become a heroine.

Gu Zhen didn't know that she had been exposed yet, and there was no sign of blushing on his dark face that was weathered by the wind and rain. She just felt it was strange. Why didn't he dare to look her in the eye for no reason?

"I came to discuss something with you. Is it convenient for you? Let's go out for a walk."

There was a musty smell in the dilapidated temple, making it hard to breathe.

Si Qin didn't know what the other party wanted to talk to him about, but he still followed Gu Zhen out obediently. They stood under a tree. He lowered his head and saw Gu Zhen's earlobe.

He had never seen any women before, but he felt that Gu Zhen's ears were different from those of the rough men, they were round and delicate, really beautiful.

Si Qin's face was burning and he turned away to look at the trees in the distance.

Gu Zhen asked bluntly: "Are you willing to go to the North with us?"

"Are you willing...ah? Go to the North? Me?" Si Qin was absent-minded at first, and only realized what the other party asked after he blurted out the question.

"Of course I am willing. I am an orphan, and it doesn't matter where I go. But I promised Xiaodouzi and the others that I would take care of these people for the rest of their lives. If I go to the North with you, what will happen to these children? The youngest is only four years old. You don't know how tragically her parents died. I..."

Si Qin talked a lot about how miserable the life stories of these children were. Gu Zhen listened patiently without interrupting.

Finally, the young man raised his head stubbornly, not wanting to let the tears fall, but his eyes were red beyond belief, and a tear still slid into his hair. He refused Gu Zhen with difficulty, "I'm sorry, thank you for your kindness, I'd better stay."

Gu Zhen took out a handkerchief from her bosom and offered it to him, "Wipe it."

If it weren't for this group of kids, Si Qin would have lived a comfortable life on his own. He is smart, hardworking and studious, and he can make a name for himself anywhere.

Gu Zhen admires such people very much. They are kind, upright, and pure-hearted. They are very good partners.

"I'll take you with me," Gu Zhen said calmly, throwing down a bomb. "My great-grandmother couldn't bear to leave Xiaodouzi and the others. The north is in chaos. As long as you're not afraid, we can start our own business over there and help each other."

Gu Zhen has also thought about it carefully. If he can have a helper like Si Qin around him, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

She can afford to raise several children.

Si Qin was shocked and couldn't believe it. "We...they...don't you think they are a burden?"

In addition to him, there are eight children left here now, four boys and four girls, the youngest of whom is only four years old.

"We still have to hire an escort company to go to the North. Children are not cheap. With nine of us, food, accommodation and transportation will be a huge expense. I can't afford it."

Si Qin admitted that the proposal was so tempting that he could hardly control the urge to agree to it.

Gu Zhen patted his shoulder and said, "When we get to the North, we will do some small business. Instead of hiring people, we should train everyone so that the children can have a skill to rely on. Don't worry, I won't help you for nothing. From now until they grow up, they will work for me for free. Isn't it worth it?"

"As for the money, you don't have to worry. I have a few recipes handed down in my family. I have sold them to the restaurant for some money. I can totally afford to take you to the North."

Gu Zhen had inquired and found out that there were very few types of recipes in that era, so she went to the largest restaurant in Tongzhou and bought two recipes.

A lion's head and a smoked duck were exchanged for fifty taels of silver.

In fact, it was a loss, but Gu Zhen didn't want to get too entangled and let the restaurant take more advantages so that it would not focus on her.

Afterwards, she went to the rouge shop and bought a recipe for ointment, which she had studied on her own in various worlds when she had nothing to do. It was harmless to people and the effect was very good.

After some bargaining, the prescription was sold for seventy taels.

People who know the business don’t need to match it, they can tell at a glance that it is a high-end product.

No matter how difficult the world is, there is always a shortage of rich people. The proprietress of the rouge shop felt that she had made a fortune as she bought someone's ancestral recipe for only seventy taels.

Si Qin felt touched and guilty, thinking that Gu Zhen sold the family heirlooms for them, which made his throat choke.

"I... I don't know how to thank you," Si Qin wiped his eyes, "I'll sign a contract to sell myself to you. From now on, I won't ask for any wages. I'll find food on my own. You can do any work for me."

Fool, Gu Zhen smiled and secretly complained about him in her heart.

If she had a bad heart, she could have gotten a servant for nothing.

"When we get to the North, I won't be polite to you when you are needed everywhere. Let's go. Don't stay here. I have found an inn. You can rest for a night. We will meet at Weiyuan Escort Agency tomorrow morning and try to get to the North before the New Year."

Si Qin nodded heavily and ran in to tell the children the good news.

He had a feeling that the world was so big and he finally had a home.

When Xiaodouzi and the others heard the news, they ran out cheering and hugged Gu Zhen.

"Big brother, are you serious? Are you willing to take us away?"

"Wow! I can do anything! I can go without meals! Big brother, please take me away!"

"Wo Wo Wo, you don't have to eat!"

"I can too!"

Gu Zhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She felt like she was covered with little carrot heads. She touched them one by one and said, "Be good, you still have to eat. If you don't eat enough, how can you help your brother? Your brother still wants to teach you how to read and write!"

It was such a joyful scene. Si Qin pursed his lips and turned away, clutching the handkerchief tightly.

A tear fell from the corner of his eye, and he felt that he could even die for Gu Zhen in this life.

.

Gu Zhen took them to the inn. Since the children were young, they booked a room for them. The waiter brought hot water, and Gu Fan and Wei Fengrong took them to take a bath.

The water alone was changed several times.

Finally, I washed out a few clean and fragrant little radish heads.

Si Qin was the older boy, hiding behind a screen to take a shower. He knew there were three women outside. His face turned red and purple, and he didn't even know how he finished taking a shower.

When he came out, Gu Zhen couldn't help but whistle.

What a young man with rosy lips and white teeth! After washing away the dirt, he looks so beautiful, with a pair of watery eyes that are shy and nervous.

Gu Zhen felt a little embarrassed after whistling. He touched his nose and pointed at the table and said, "Eat quickly. We've been waiting for you."

She had money in her hands, and today was a special day, so she ordered a table full of delicious dishes.

"Eat slowly," Gu Zhen wiped the corners of Xiaodouzi's mouth, "Don't eat too fast, or you'll get an upset stomach. Brother will take care of your meals from now on, so don't rush this meal."

"Eat some vegetables. You haven't had any oily food for a long time. Don't get food stuck in your stomach at night." Gu Fan picked up some food for them one by one.

Wei Fengrong looked at the group of children with a smile, "There are still some clothes. I will alter them and change them into new ones."

They have both food and clothes, and the little kids take a bite of the steamed bun and shed a tear, which is so heartbreaking.

Si Qin thought about it again and again, then suddenly stood up and knelt straight down in front of Gu Zhen and the other two: "I, Si Qin, have no way of repaying you for your great kindness. From now on, I will work like a cow or a horse for you, and I will go through fire and water for you without hesitation!"

Xiaodouzi and a few others also jumped down from their stools and knelt down together.
