Li Daitao

Liang Xiao came out in a hurry at the time, Xu Ji's temperament was really unreasonable when he was stubborn, he insisted on doing whatever he wanted, and he didn't want to wait for a quarter of an hour, so he dragged him away forcefully.Even talking to Qin Shu was too late.

Xu Ji forced him to pull him out like this, and he felt uneasy.But Xu Ji walked on the street for a while, and couldn't help but be distracted by the fresh excitement in front of him, and gradually forgot the uneasiness in his heart. Speaking of which, he rarely had the opportunity to play so heartily and comfortably, and he couldn't help but He is a child of eight or nine years old, even though he is well-behaved and sensible on the street, but at this age, there is no one who does not like to play.

In addition, Xu Ji secretly tried to please him.His small pouch is full of loose silver coins, he is familiar with all the novelty and interesting things on the street, and he can buy whatever he wants, even if Liang Xiao doesn't want to take other people's things for nothing, his hands are forced It was stuffed full of all kinds of gadgets, and even if it rained in the sky later, it did not dampen the interest of the two children in the slightest.

When Liang Xiao finally thought it was time to go home, he only knew that the lights on both sides of the street were on, and he didn't remember how long it had been dark. He had never played so recklessly outside.Inevitably, I started to feel apprehensive.

Later, when he saw Qin Shu was already looking at the door of the store, Liang Xiao felt more and more uneasy. After only a few steps, he lingered for a long time before walking over.After calling out "Uncle Qin", he didn't know what to say.

Qin Shu didn't pay much attention to Liang Xiao, he looked past the restless child in front of him, and looked at Xu Ji behind him.

Xu Ji also saw Qin Shu from a long distance away. He was very happy at first, as if he wanted to run up to make out for some intimacy, but suddenly he saw Qin Shu's expression was calm, and he didn't show any surprise or joy when he saw him. .He couldn't help but pause for a while, Xu Ji didn't know what he thought of at this moment, this thick-skinned little guy actually hesitated and flinched, stopped and refused to come over, lowered his head and secretly looked at Qin Shu out of the corner of his eyes.

There was a stalemate like this for a while, at the end Xu Ji suddenly seemed annoyed again, snorted, turned around and ran in the direction he came from, stomping heavily.

He had only taken a few steps when Qin Shu saw a man who looked like an attendant not far away rushing up to Xu Ji and holding an umbrella over his head.Xu Ji stopped and looked back at him again. He was a little further away now, and the lights were dim, so he couldn't see his expression clearly through the rain.

Xu Ji took the umbrella from the man and held it up by himself. Compared with him, the umbrella seemed a bit huge. Most of him was covered under it, and it was a bit difficult. He seemed to be in a good mood, yes. But he didn't care about it, and just ran away with a big mushroom-like umbrella.

Seeing the entourage chasing after him, Qin Shu thought to himself that this family knew the seriousness, and they still remembered to let him follow him from a distance, not to let him mess around outside.Thinking that someone would take him home, he felt relieved.

At this time, he turned back to look at Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao stood there quietly with his head down all the time, anxiously waiting for Qin Shu to scold him for being playful.

From Qin Shu's angle, he couldn't see his expression, but he could see the tiny twirling hair on the top of his head, and the hair around the ear pinna was stained with moisture, sticking to his neck with some dampness.

Qin Shu was taken aback for a moment, and his heart softened before he knew it.There was still no expression of joy or anger on his face, but he took back what he originally wanted to warn him in his heart.Reaching out his hand to brush the moisture from the child's hair, he said slowly, "You haven't eaten dinner yet, I left you two meat buns."

Liang Xiao is a person who knows what is good and what is bad. It would be fine if he scolded him a few words. Seeing that Qin Shufei didn't say much, but was worried about starving himself, he felt more and more guilty, and whispered: "I ate on the street, Here are some snacks from Ji.”

As he said that, he hurriedly handed it over, but this was Xu Ji's idea. He was playful and mischievous, and every time he provoked Yi Zhen into anger, and when he really wanted to teach him a lesson, as long as Xu Ji pretended to be well-behaved, and remember to send some snacks With such an expression of heart, his father's anger will probably dissipate in no time.But he still can't understand that it's because Yi Zhen really loves him in his heart and doesn't want to part with him. Such a method is not suitable for everyone and it has been tried and tested.

Qin Shu just glanced at it without expressing anything, and asked Liang Xiao to wrap it up and put it away.

He was worried that Liang Xiao would not be able to find him when he came back, so he made excuses from the feast early on.But they waited at the door for a long time. Seeing that it was not too early, they borrowed umbrellas and lanterns from the store, and the two went back.

Because Qin Shu had to hold the umbrella, and in the other hand held all kinds of odds and ends that Xu Ji bought today, and he had no time to hold Liang Xiao with his hands, so he had to let Liang Xiao hold his clothes and snuggle up to him, and the lantern had to let Liang Xiao Xiao held it in the other hand. Fortunately, it was not far from the county seat, and the roads were well repaired. The two of them walked slowly, but it was smooth.

Liang Xiao got close to him, and smelled a faint smell of alcohol on his body. In his impression, Qin Shu rarely drank alcohol, so he couldn't help being a little surprised: "Uncle Qin, have you been drinking?"

"Huh?" Qin Shu didn't pay much attention, since Liang Xiao asked, he just answered casually. "I'm happy today, but I only drank two glasses."

He was probably really in a good mood, and there was a slight joy in his usually gloomy eyebrows and eyes, and suddenly he seemed to be a lot more lively. He hadn't drank alcohol for a long time, even though it was only two glasses of thin wine, he still couldn't drink it now. He was still a little bit drunk, so he didn't care much about whether the person listening to him was Liang Xiao or someone else, and couldn't help but continued: "The shopkeeper Li brought it up at the banquet today, someone wants to tell you Uncle Meng A family affair..."

Liang Xiao never imagined that this was the case, and he forgot to walk for a moment in a daze.Qin Shu noticed that he had stopped, frowned slightly, and looked at him strangely: "What's wrong with you?"

It was inevitable that Ran Xiao was a little surprised, but maybe because of the previous experience, it didn't feel as abrupt and unacceptable as the last time Mrs. Sun deliberately made peace with Uncle Qin.

He was just slightly taken aback, but suddenly remembered Xu Ji's nonsense, and blurted out: "If Uncle Meng gets married, then I will become a fool? I..."

Qin Shu didn't seem to expect that he was worried about this, so he couldn't help but chuckled lightly.Wei Wei glanced at the cranky child in surprise: "Who did you hear that from? You're not Uncle Meng's son, so you're his son?" He paused for a moment, as if he understood what the child was worried about. , said lightly. "When Uncle Meng marries a wife, you will live with me, and I will support you."

Xu Ji talked to Liang Xiao behind his back these days, and whenever he mentioned Qin Shu, he would always talk about your father on the left and your father on the right. Tong Yan Wuji believed it to be true, but he got used to hearing it more or less.

This is also due to Xu Ji's blessing. When Qin Shu said that he was not Meng Zhang's son, he didn't think too much about it. Liang Xiao didn't feel too sad when he heard it. Oh.

After walking a few more steps, he asked curiously again: "Uncle Qin, Uncle Meng is getting married, are you happy?"

Qin Shu hardly hesitated, hummed lightly, and there seemed to be a slight joyful smile in his voice, paused, and then said: "But it depends on Meng Zhang's intentions, the girl from that family You should know, sister Baguio who bought you candy a few times. He also knows everything, so he shouldn’t have any objections.”

Liang Xiao glanced in his heart, he didn't know if Qin Shupi knew that the matchmaker Mrs. Sun wanted to talk about should be this sister Li, but he was just guessing, completely groundless.Looking up and seeing Qin Shu's brows and eyes with some joy, I just feel that my mood has improved a lot.So, relying on the child's unique cunning, he decided not to tell this matter again. Anyway, he felt that Uncle Qin's temperament should not pay attention to who the media space that Aunt Sun wanted to talk about last time.

But he still has some doubts in his heart. Perhaps Qin Shu is more kind to him today than before, which made him bold enough to ask again: "But Uncle Qin, why are you so happy that Uncle Meng got married, but you yourself don't want to?" What about getting married?"

Qin Shu seemed to be stopped by his question. He didn't speak for a long time, and said lightly for a long time: "Your Uncle Meng is also quite old. Others at his age have already fathered several children. If it weren't for the many years because of me He should have started a family and settled down a long time ago. The child will not be a few years younger than you." When he said this, he seemed to finally be in high spirits, and his voice gradually became low and inaudible: "As for me, with your Uncle Meng It's different. In my life, I will never marry another wife. "

He forced a smile, and said to Liang Xiao: "If you follow me, you don't have to worry about becoming a drag bottle one day."

Liang Xiao could tell from his words that his good mood just now was gone, but he didn't know which sentence he said was wrong, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Fortunately, I have already seen the sporadic lights in the village, and after walking for a while, I will be home.

The house was dark, only some lights were on in the kitchen, but no one was there. Liang Xiao held up the lantern to shine a light on it, and saw a half-closed silk umbrella leaning against the door. He suddenly let out a surprise and said, "This is Baguio." Sister's umbrella, I saw her go out with this umbrella two days ago. Sister Biguio came here today, did you forget the umbrella here?"

Then I saw the food box on the side. There were two pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table, both of which looked like they had been moved, but the dishes seemed a bit messy. Unfortunately, two stools fell down, and even a piece of water-colored silk handkerchief fell on the ground.

Qin Shu's expression inevitably became a little weird, but Liang Xiao didn't know what was going on, but was instinctively worried about Meng Zhang.

He hurriedly called Uncle Meng, and hurried to Meng Zhang's room to see what happened.

Meng Zhang's room was pitch black, but the door was ajar. Liang Xiao took a lantern and took a random look at it. Seeing that the door was ajar, he raised his foot and wanted to rush in: "Meng..."

Before he could speak, Qin Shu covered his mouth and dragged him back.

Qin Shu covered his eyes and mouth, and pushed him out dozens of steps together.Come to the stone table in the courtyard.Only then did he let go of his hand, and saw that under the dim light of the lantern, Qin Shu's expression was a little weird, like a subtle embarrassment and unbelievable.

But in front of the child, he couldn't say anything, so he could only whisper to Liang Xiao: "Didn't you see that there was wine on the table, Uncle Meng was drunk and fell asleep, don't bother him anymore. "

Liang Xiao was taken aback by his unbelievable behavior, and he didn't dare to move at this moment. His eyes were covered by Qin Shu just now, but his ears were still exposed, as if under the rustling wind and rain. In the middle, I heard some very strange noises.He looked at Qin Shu, but saw that Qin Shu was slightly startled, his expression was either happy or sad, and he didn't really care about him.

After saying these few words with Liang Xiao, he waved his hand to let Liang Xiao go back to sleep, but forgot to ask him to wash up first.And he himself didn't seem to know that the rain had already wet the table and stool, so he slowly sat down on the stone bench. Liang Xiao saw it, and boldly reminded him: "Uncle Qin, the stool is wet, be careful not to catch a cold. "

Qin Shu seemed to have to think about it before he could understand what he was talking about. After a while, he said "oh", stood up again, and still waved his hands to wake Liang Xiao up.

When Liang Xiao went to the room, he didn't care about the wetness of the stool, and sat back again, resting his forehead on the same wet table with one hand, always feeling that the things in front of him were unreal as if they were separated by a layer of veil.He felt that he should blame Meng Zhang for acting like this, but there was an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart.

He only felt pain like a needle prick in his brain, which was the surge of alcohol, but he just thought that he really didn't drink enough wine tonight.If he was really drunk, he wouldn't have such absurd, weird and inexplicable dreams.

Qin Shuru sat there for a moment in a daze, never thinking of going back to sleep, and he probably couldn't fall asleep. He hesitated for a while, mentioned the lantern that Liang Xiao had just brought along, gently pushed the door and walked out.

It is only three or four miles from here to the city. This place is a small town, and there is not even a decent city gate, but there are a lot of merchants, and even at night, there are still restaurants and restaurants doing business.Qin Shu was a little erratic, and he didn't realize how long the road was. He almost bumped into someone when he entered the city gate, and that person gave him a hand, but he was in a daze. I'm sorry, but I didn't even look closely at the person's appearance.

He didn't have much money on him, so he found a secluded place, took out the last copper coin on his body, gave it to the waiter in the shop and changed it into a sprinkle, and drank quietly by himself.
