Tao Ran is happy

Holding the coarse porcelain cup in his hands, he lifted it up and slowly sucked it along the mouth of the cup.

The hot water is soaked in some kind of leaves that I don't know where to pick, but compared with tea, it has a special refreshing and long-lasting fragrance in the mouth.

Couldn't help squinting, and smiled.

Unexpectedly, Father Wu is also very good at enjoying life.

"Sir, how is the water?" Father Wu greeted Mrs. Wu to go to the kitchen to prepare meals. Turning around at this time, probably seeing my expression, he twisted the tobacco leaves and asked a little proudly.

"This is the best in the world, it can be called peerless," said the lower body sideways, sitting upright, lowering his eyes and smiling slightly, "Thank you, old man, for your hospitality."

You've seen me praise Zhongyi's sincerity.

"Alas, Mr. Xiao can joke like this," Father Wu waved his hands seemingly indifferently, but smiled even more happily, "Don't talk to the old man, um, this kind of..."

The villagers are naturally impatient with red tape.

Immediately accepted the gift, said with a smile: "Three people walking together must have my teacher."

Who said that only those who are learned are the most capable?

No matter merchants, farmers, hunters or craftsmen, they all have amazing experience and experience, which is worth learning.

At least in the way of keeping in good health, this old man is much better than the master who is thrown books and pots by me every day in anger.

After thinking about it, he smiled again, "Could it be that the old man still hides his secrets, so he won't accept this disciple?" Then he looked at him eagerly.

Take one general, ask for one, no matter what, you have to go to the origin of the leaves and the brewing method.

After learning it, he will have another wonderful skill in the future, which can relieve the master's emotions.

More importantly, I can take some pressure off myself...

After all, it is not easy to please each time afterwards...

I can still...soak it for Gu Ning...

"Really, little sir, you..." The old man smiled again and shook his head.

It is not forbidden to teach.

My heart was beautiful again, and I smiled.

Gu Ning came in from the outside at this time, smiled and nodded, "Father."

Except for the cloak, she shook off the snow on her shoulders, walked over to me, and sat down touching the hem of her clothes.

"Is Mr. Gu satisfied with the work of those boys?" Father Wu tapped the cigarette rod on the table leg, lit the fire, and took a puff of dry smoke.

"You guys have excellent workmanship. They worked hard to build that house. It's really my luck." After taking the water I poured for him, Gu Ning held it up, smiled and praised.

"That's good, that's good." Father Wu also narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"But, after all, it has delayed everyone for many days. The weather is cold at this time, and it's the new year," Gu Ning said, copied his sleeve pocket, took something wrapped in a small cloth towel, put it in front of the table, and opened it. , "Give me some drinks for everyone."

This is what he counted before he went out in the morning. There were scraps of silver and copper plates. The price was combined, no more than [-] cash, and distributed to the ten families who followed him to help. Compared with the artisan families in the city, it was slightly more. But it is also cost-effective.

Dad frowned, "This..."

"It's not easy in today's world, and there are not many. Dad doesn't have to refuse." Gu Ning pushed the cloth towel forward.

I also nodded, "I will stay here for a long time in the future, if my father doesn't accept me, I won't see you?" Gu Ning and I were rich and well-off before we came here, so we didn't give more because we were afraid that you wouldn't want it.

"Well, since the two gentlemen said so, the old man also..." After all, he is a simple person, and he does not pretend to be pretentious.

Looking at Gu Ning and smiling.

"When do gentlemen plan to teach?" Sure enough, as the head of a village, he was most concerned about the dolls in the village. "Houpo has already built a private school."

"It will be ready after the next year," Gu Ning replied, and there is still less than half a month left, "I still need to tidy up the house and buy some books."

"Do you need any help?"

"Father, don't bother. I have a set car with my brother, so it only takes one or two trips."

"Is that so..."

Light snow was falling thinly from the sky, it didn't block the sight, and it didn't see mud when it fell to the ground.

Even the children in the village are not well-clothed and pampered compared to those of the big families in the city, so they seem not afraid of the cold, breathe heat, wear warm clothes, and still chase and play freely.

Seeing Father Wu's smile, he reckoned that he was also happy about this Ruixue.

Next year is bound to be a bumper year.

In this world, it is rare, rare to be able to enjoy such leisure and ease.

but for me...

What I hate the most in my life, apart from chopped green onion, ginger, and kelp, is probably the snow.

After all, whoever has been frozen in the heavy snow and cold wind for several hours, or even almost died of freezing to death, probably won't like it.

With a psychological shadow, every year when I see this white thing, my knees seem to recall the day, and there is an illusion of prickling pain.

"Rong'er?" Gu Ning looked sideways, with the cloak on his arm, with a concerned expression, "Would you like to rest and go tomorrow?"

"It's nothing." Smiling at him, such a small problem is nothing.

This body is a young and strong guy, so there is nothing to worry about.

After going out, Gu Ning set up the car, fearing that I would be cold, so he put an extra quilt inside.

And judging by the pattern of the quilt, it was the same bed that I played like crazy that day, drew a map, planned to be destroyed by me, and was saved by him in time.

He even smiled and said yes, to keep a souvenir.

This this……

Can't he be more conservative?

Who is the ancient between us?

Both cheeks were suddenly held by both hands, and warm heat was passed over.

"What's wrong? Your face is so red? Are you sick?" He frowned, pressed his forehead, and pressed it, "It's a little hot..."

"No……"

"Ok?"

Hold the fox to warm your hands, look at the quilt in the carriage, and then look at him, his face is even hotter.

Gu Ning also turned his head, looked in the carriage, paused, and then looked back at me.

The eyes are crooked.

"Don't worry, if you want to use it, we will always use it."

His face swelled, it was hot.

This sanctimonious, animal-faced fellow!

Gu Ning, his brows and eyes were tender, and his eyes were even more curved.

"Where did the thief come from!" A loud voice came over, "How dare you run away here to play wild!"

Hearing the sound and looking around, I saw a middle-aged man tightly holding a small wrist, staring with anger on his face.

"No! I'm not!" The one who was caught was a four or five-year-old child. Although his neck was stuck and his face was stubborn, he couldn't help being scared at such a young age, and tears were already in his eyes.

"No, then what is in your hand!" The man tugged at the child, "Come on, let's go to the official and let the official talk about it!"

"You...you let go! Otherwise, I'll tell my father!" The child cried even harder, "Lai Shun! Lai Shun! Get out of here!"

Hearing the sound, the man stopped in his tracks, hesitated for a moment, lowered his head and looked back and forth at the child he was holding in his hands, his expression gradually became startled.

After all, you are also in business. You should have some experience in observing people and looking at them. Did you finally realize something was wrong?

"Young master, your pastry."

"Thank you." After paying the bill, he took a small package wrapped in oiled paper and put it in his skirt.

Stepping forward, saluting, "This big brother."

"Ah? Ah, young master." The man became nervous, he didn't let go, and he didn't let go.

What are you afraid of, I look like a bad guy?

Smiling slightly, he leaned over again, stroking the child's head, "Where does your family live?"

When the child saw me, he became vigilant, hid, and kept his mouth shut.

Couldn't help but smile, "Aren't you afraid of your father worrying about you sneaking out?" Although the clothes he was wearing were all old materials, but such a pink and jade-carved appearance, white, tender, tender and sweet bun face, was not delicious. It's delicious to keep, how can it come out?

And if something happens, I have to go to my father to complain, and find someone to come forward...

The child's expression changed, his voice became much quieter, he dawdled, and looked up at me, "You, do you know your father?"

Is this afraid?

It seems that he is still a strict father.

However, although I don't know him well, with your attitude, I'm afraid he has a lot of background.

"Young master, your father must be in a hurry right now." He patted his head and stopped hiding this time, took out the snack bag and gave him an osmanthus cake, "Let's go back earlier."

Seeing him dodging his eyes, he added, "The longer the delay, the greater the punishment."

Sure enough, her little face turned pale, and tears began to flow again.

oops!so cute!

Hurry up and hug, pinch, poke, pinch.

Holding sesame seed cake in one hand and sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the other, he didn't dare to resist.

Hey.

Holding the little bun, he turned sideways, "Brother, how much is this biscuit?"

The man looked at me, then at the child, and even waved his hands, "This, no need, no need."

Xiao Baozi was surprised.

Pinched his face, "I don't know if I have to pay?"

She pouted, "I know! Father taught me!"

Oh, that is, "Didn't you bring it?"

Xiaozui grumbled even harder, "It's all on Laishun!"

It turned out to be the case.

But thinking that Laishun is going to make a living under the hands of the master, he must be taken care of with every possible care, how dare he let you here alone?

Regardless of this, "Brother, look, it's all..."

"Yes, my lord sees it clearly, the little one misunderstood."

He smiled and handed over the copper coins, "These..."

"This, no, no!" The man pushed and pushed, but refused to accept it.

Probably because I was afraid of accidentally offending the nobleman. After all, it is not easy for ordinary people to make a living with a small business.

"Brother, don't worry." He tucked the money over and smiled, "You also said it was all a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly."

Then he blinked again, "If it's not troublesome, make me two biscuits too."

It's not troublesome to solve the problem.

"Hehe, this..." The man patted his head, and smiled Hanhan, "Wait a minute, young master, I'll fix this for you, little one."

Thank you with a smile, pat the little bun again, and give him a sesame seed cake, "Remember next time, you have to make it clear, you are not happy if it is plainly misunderstood, aren't you?"

The little hand couldn't hold it anymore, so he could only hold it together, wrinkled his little nose, and replied, "Oh."

"Why don't you apologize to uncle soon?"

She pouted and bent the chubby waist, "I'm sorry." She is still very educated.

"What's wrong, what's wrong, it's all small faults."

Shaking his head, preventing the two of them from going back and forth politely, he said goodbye to the man, and walked out with the little bun in his arms, "Where is your home?"

You didn't have much scheming, and you followed me, a stranger, so easily. I mourn your father in silence.

Fortunately, it was me.

"..."

"I don't know?"

Nod.

"Then what's your name?"

"Mother calls me Shen'er."

"What's your last name? Didn't I tell you?"

"I told you, my surname is Xu."

Oh, Xu, Xu Shen, Xu...

"Xu Shen?!"

"Hmm." Responded crisply.

"..." Staring, the big black grape-like eyes looked back.

There was a TV forum in the vague memory...

Not alone...

The location is wrong, it should not be alone...

"Why did it take so long to buy dim sum?" After moving two small tables, two wooden basins, and a lot of small daily items in the car, Gu Ning turned to look at me.

Hastily went over to wipe his sweat, said with a smile: "On the way, I met someone arguing in the street, so I took a detour." By the way, I gave a little bun, but after walking a few steps, he was found by his servant named Laishun , vigilantly regarded them as enemies, and explained for a long time, and then saw them enter Xu's mansion, and then came back, "It's delayed." He reached out to catch the fox that sprang out of the carriage, and hugged the fox in his arms to smooth his fur.

Nodded, "It's fine." He patted my head as he said, "Don't worry me."

Rubbing over, "Okay." After a pause, he frowned again.

However, at that time, he was grabbed and scolded, and he was distracted. Looking back now, that servant's expression seems to be a little...

"What's wrong?"

Shaking his head, "It's okay."

There is no evidence, so rashly speaking, there is always a sense of provocation. When you are new to this place, you need to be more cautious. If you are not familiar with life, it is difficult to say...

Fortunately, I know where the child lives, and I will go back later and write an anonymous letter.

"Rong'er."

"Ok?"

I gathered my cloak and looked at the sun, "Go back today, I need to buy some cloth when I come back in a few days," then pinched my face, "It's Chinese New Year, I'll make you two new clothes."

"Okay." She smiled and pressed his palm, rubbing it.

"We have to talk about the new quilt that day, tonight..." Touching his lips with his fingertips, rubbing them back and forth, he said with a low laugh, "Let's use the bed in the car first."

"..."
