Many years ago, the first time we met, your tender eyes and joyful face

----------------

In Beiping in [-], although the streets were bustling with each other, most of the ordinary people wore khaki navy blue and various shades of gray as the main color. A group of two groups of figures wrapped into a ball moved slowly, and in a blink of an eye, it was completely dark.

Occasionally, the boys who were studying opera in Xifucheng's major class were brought out by adults to sing a monkey show, which added a touch of brightness to the gloomy surroundings.

Lu Zhu gathered the small cloak on his body, raised his hands in front of him, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your sugar-fried chestnuts!" The peddler yelled, wrapped a large handful of steaming hot sugar-fried chestnuts, bent down and handed them to Lu Zhu.

Feeling the heavy weight that the child's little hands could hardly hold, Lu Zhu lowered his head and looked at the oil paper bag in his hand: purple red and red chestnuts fried in sugar were wrapped in the yellow oil paper, and there was a thin layer of sugar coating on the outside. With a seductive luster, the warm white smoke can't wait to blow the sweet aroma of chestnuts to people's noses, teaching people to taste the fresh fragrance of winter without using their mouths.

"How is Lord Guan?" The vendor lowered his head and asked Lu Zhu, with a look of nostalgia on his face, and recalled: "When I was young, I sold snacks in a basket with a basket in the theater, and I had heard of Lord Guan." The play——hey, the singing and the figure are really amazing!"

"Father is in good health. No, he has been cultivating a group of newcomers these few years. When teaching them, he is full of energy!" Lu Zhu answered a few words neatly, then turned and walked towards the group of people at the monkey show.

When he turned around, he bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry, miss, I hope you will forgive me for being ignorant! Xiaodouzi, please apologize to miss!" The woman in the dark blue cardigan kept apologizing, regardless that it was not Lu Zhu who was knocked down, but her own son The son who was too thin and was knocked down by a child a few years younger than him.

The girl in front of her was only about four or five years old, wearing two buns and delicately crafted silk flowers, not to mention the satin dress she was wearing and the little red cloak she was wearing, just because of her full body The majesty and delicate skin have already shown that this little girl must have been raised and raised.

Those low-level prostitutes like them can't afford to provoke this kind of person.

Therefore, even if her seven-year-old son was the one who was knocked down, she had to apologize with a smile on her face.

"It's okay, I didn't pay attention to knocking him down, here, little brother, please eat chestnuts, don't be angry with me." Lu Zhu poured a handful of chestnuts in his hand, and handed them over with a smile.

"I don't blame you." The little boy named Xiaodouzi was dressed like a girl with a red headband, and covered his hands as if afraid of the cold, but his eyes were very bright.

"Eat one, it's very sweet." Lu Zhu forcefully stuffed a peeled chestnut into his mouth.

Once in the mouth, Xiaodouzi subconsciously chewed the chestnut pulp a few times.

The sweet, glutinous and delicate taste is slightly warm, as if dispelling the cold of winter at once.

The little girl in front of her smiled with crooked eyebrows, and the little pear dimple at the corner of her mouth was even more lively.

Seeing him, he couldn't help grinning the corners of his mouth foolishly, his stubborn little eyes softened by the smile, giving people a sense of happiness and anger, which meant that he was born a beauty.

"Life is very bitter, so we should eat more sweets." Looking at the little girl, she sighed like an old pedant, and when Xiaodouzi was about to say something, he was suddenly interrupted by another voice.

"Hey, isn't this Yanhong? I haven't seen it for a long time, you miss me..." The middle-aged man in a robe and vest was about to touch the woman's face when he said that, but he was pushed away by the woman.

"Let's go." Picking up Xiaodouzi, the woman hurriedly left.

"Stinky bitch, you!" The middle-aged man spat, probably because he was concerned about his identity, so he didn't continue to make dirty words on the street.

Lu Zhu raised his head and looked at the figure of the woman carrying the child away, the angry eyes of Xiaodouzi, who was helplessly taken away by her mother, were inappropriately bright and frightening in this gloomy environment.

This man...was really stubborn since he was a child.

However, now who would have imagined that this child named "Little Douzi" would grow up to be a magnificent and famous actress Cheng Dieyi in the future?

[Reward anchor 999 Battlestar: Rongmen Inn advance team arrives, please give Zhang Houzi a happy ending, Dieyi is really too bitter!The anchor loves him so much! ——A small heart is not a respect! 】

[Reward the anchor with 520 battleships: Brother!Finally, the emperor's giant baby I've been longing for! ! ! 】

【Eh?What's the situation, isn't this the anchor of Old Port Style? Why did he come to Jinghua Old Dream? 】

[Look at the title of the live broadcast room, the time and space of the Friendship Competition event - the anchor of the old port will broadcast "Farewell My Concubine", and the anchor of Jinghua will broadcast "Xinzha Junior Sister"! 】

[Reward the anchor with 520 battleships: I don't care who broadcasts it, as long as there is my beloved Young Master Rong! 】

While watching the reward screen, Lu Zhu walked back to the crowd with the oil paper bag in his hand, and saw the woman named Yanhong again.

She was watching a monkey show with Xiaodouzi in her arms, with a gentle smile, but also a bit of charming style.

It's just that this group of monkey performers are still immature in their studies, so they lost their hand for a while, not only aroused a lot of applause, but even a few tall and burly men came out more and more, grabbed the leader and scolded: " What kind of obscene stuff, he. Mom dares to show his face here!"

"I. Fuck. Your uncle!" Seeing someone coming to smash the scene, Xiao Shitou, who is a big brother, was instantly annoyed. He pushed Lu Zhu into the crowd to let her hide, and then stood two steps forward. come out.

"Everyone, stand still and don't move, real money buys real goods, my little stone is playing for real today, open your eyes!" As he spoke, he motioned for one of his juniors to bring a brick, gritted his teeth, and shouted , He smashed the brick into two pieces with his head.

For a while, cheers and applause were endless.

Walking back with a handful of odds and ends, Xiao Shitou glanced at the juniors who were happily following behind, and then at Lu Zhu who was walking beside him with a sullen face, and said in a low voice, "Hey!" , Honghong, what do you want to eat or buy? Tell the elder brother!"

"I'm rich!" As if afraid that Lu Zhu would not believe it, he patted his bulging trouser pockets vigorously with his hands.

"No, I'd better buy a plaster for yourself." Lu Zhu waved his hand.

Xiao Shitou was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he thought that Lu Zhu hadn't expected anything wrong, and his heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, when he returned to the class and saw Master Guan's black face, Xiao Shitou, who knew that something was wrong, immediately lay down on the bench and yelled.

"What are you shouting about? I haven't greeted you yet!" Master Guan mercilessly picked up the long knife for practicing opera and gave him a heavy hit on the buttocks, scolding while beating him: "You big brother shit, you f-m... You can’t even act like a monkey... How will you be a human being in the future! Don’t think that I can spare you if you played a trick today, it’s a dirty trick!”

"Master, Hong Hong is choking on a chestnut!" a kid shouted hastily.

"Oh my little ancestor, why are you so careless!" Master Guan immediately became anxious when he heard this, he dropped the long knife in his hand and ran to Lu Zhu's side, picked her up and patted her on the back repeatedly.

"Ahem...Father, I'm fine..." Lu Zhu coughed twice.

"My darling, you really frightened my father. From now on, please don't eat so fast, eat slowly, huh?" Master Guan hugged Lu Zhu and gently brushed her off, with a big smile on his face. The appearance of a loving father is very different from the appearance of scolding his apprentice just now.

Others also think it's quite correct. The only daughter of the master is the junior sister of the general class. The soft and glutinous dumplings make people's hearts melt at first glance. This is so delicate and pampered, it's normal!

And these monkeys, if they don't hit Fang Jiewa for three days, they should be hit!

Xiaodouzi, who was led by her mother Yanhong to stand in the yard, looked at her coldly, and could tell at a glance that the little girl was faking.

She even secretly winked at the boy lying on the bench.

After being disturbed by Lu Zhu, Master Guan didn't have time to worry about continuing to teach Xiao Shitou a lesson.After coaxing Lu Zhu a few words, and training the boys angrily to take good care of Lu Zhu, he waved his hands to let everyone continue to practice, and then called Yanhong into the back room to talk.

After a while, Lu Zhu, who was sitting on the chair on the left side of the hall eating snacks, saw Yanhong dragging Xiaodouzi out with a complicated face.

"That woman wanted to entrust her son to our class, but the master saw - this kid is actually a six-fingered child! No wonder he kept covering his hands with his hands, so it wasn't because he was afraid of the cold..." The most gossiping little mangzi sneaked over, He laughed and said: "Master said, if the patriarch does not reward the meal, no one will do that!"

As soon as the words fell, there was an extremely painful scream from outside, and the boy who was leaning on the wall and practicing kung fu fell several times in shock.

Immediately afterwards, Yanhong rushed in holding Xiaodouzi with blood on her hands.

Grabbing Xiaodouzi who kept screaming loudly, kowtowed and pressed her handprint on the deed, Yanhong put the dark blue coat on him, and then walked away quickly without looking back.

"Mother..." As if confused by this series of events, Xiaodouzi finally stopped screaming, yelled blankly and turned his head, only seeing the snowflakes in the yard at the door.

Because the weather was too cold, the blood on his hands quickly turned sticky, and even the severe pain of the wound on his hands seemed to be covered by the cold that penetrated into the bone marrow.

Seeing the newcomer being taken to treat the wound, Xiao Manzi exclaimed in a low voice: "Oh my god, his mother is really cruel. In order to let the master accept him, he directly caught the kitchen knife man outside the door." Old man, just chop it up all at once..."

When he said this, Xiao Manzi almost grinned and "hissed", as if he could feel the pain of cutting his fingers.

"Don't yell here! What should I do if I scare Honghong for a while?!" Xiao Shitou scratched his face with a big ear.

While they started practicing again, Lu Zhu jumped off the chair, walked through the corridor, and sneaked to the next door.

At this time, the way to treat the wound is still very rough. I just took some incense burner ash or something and mixed it with the black medicinal paste, directly paste it on the wound, and then tied it with a rag to finish the job.

During the whole process, Xiaodouzi kept a cold face and didn't say a word.

"You kid can bear it." The old man who helped him bandage the wound couldn't help but sigh when he saw his appearance.

Xiaodouzi seemed to be too lazy to pay attention to him, rolled his eyes slightly, and then shifted his gaze to the front.

Then he saw a little head holding the door frame and peeking in sideways.

A corner of the little cloak fell down due to the movement of the body, and it was still eye-catching with the rare bright color seen on the dark street before.

White snow, red clothes, big black eyes, and the mottled peeling marks of the carved and hollow door painted with red lacquer seem to reflect the imprint of the years. The sky outside the door is covered by large clouds. The original clear blue, The crow perched on the dead branch in the yard was startled by the sound of falling snow, and flapped its wings and flew away into the distance.

From the painter's point of view, this is a very humanistic style painting.

It’s just that Xiaodouzi at this time is still young and can’t understand words. The only thing he thinks about this picture is that the little girl really looks like a pink and tender doll popping out of the New Year painting.

When he was still in the flower building with his mother before, every New Year, there would be a lot of New Year pictures posted in the building. The gloom of the past year was swept away, replaced by dazzling gold and red colors, which seemed to be able to reflect the blue sky. into bright red.

I thought that the blue sky in my old dream had already been driven away by today's dark and gray, but I didn't expect that after the redness reappeared in front of my eyes, the snow that had fallen for a long time seemed to be dispelled by this gorgeous color. Gradually, a corner of the blue sky appeared again.

At night, Xiaodouzi was sent to the Datongpu room where the boys slept.

Although I was frightened by Xiaodouzi's encounter today and felt a little bit of sympathy for him, but when I saw that he looked completely different from the short-scalp monkey on my side, and stood opposite him as if he stood out from the crowd and stood blankly Looking at this side, everyone couldn't help being a little annoyed.

"Where did you come from the brothel! Go away!" Not only were they swearing dirtyly, someone even reached out and snatched the dark blue coat his mother had left for him.

Two fists were no match for four hands, and after the outer shirt was taken away, someone threw it on the ground, laughing loudly for fun: "The things from the kiln fell on the ground!"

This kind of humiliation of being isolated and played with made Xiaodouzi's face cold in an instant.

When he picked up his coat and wanted to throw it into the brazier next to him, the door was suddenly pulled open from the outside.

The howling cold wind at night suddenly rushed in, breaking through the warmth that had been gathered in the room with great difficulty. A few boys who were used to sleeping shirtless were blown like this, and immediately rushed back to the bunk to grab the quilt, screaming in unison.

"Are you bullying him?!" Seeing the scene in the room, Xiao Shitou immediately yelled, and turned around to welcome Lu Zhu in, muttering incessantly: "My little aunt, in such a cold day, you What are you doing here on purpose? I’ll just send him there..."

"Honghong!" The group of boys on the Datong bunk suddenly became excited.

"Let me tell you, this kid is considered to be one of us when he enters the door. If he is a brother of the same door, he will not bully his own." Xiao Shitou closed the door with a sigh of relief, rubbed his hands together before continuing: "Master, tell me!" Well, for the past two years, first sharpen his temper and let him watch the night in Honghong's room. If you hurt him, he won't be able to watch the night and serve Honghong well, and Honghong will have to feel uncomfortable wherever he goes. Blame you!"

"No, no, we are all on our own and won't bully him!" The boys waved their hands again and again: Lu Zhu is not only the only daughter of Master Guan, but also the darling of the general class; Even they themselves were reluctant to see her crying, and tried their best to make her happy whenever they had time.

To put it simply, this is the spiritual pillar of the general class. When you see her sitting next to her and smiling sweetly to encourage you, you will be filled with inexhaustible energy, and no matter how hard the training is, it will become sweet.

Most of the children at this time are still innocent, and they also have clear love and hate. Xiaodouzi was drawn to his own side and was dedicated to guarding their darling, so he was naturally accepted by the children.

They not only apologized to him on the spot, but also put the dark blue t-shirt in the cabinet for storage, and then made a quilt to help him move to Lu Zhu's side.

On the first night of moving to Lu Zhu's house, Xiaodouzi also learned her name: Guan Xianghong.

These days, there are very few literate people, not to mention such a girl, even many boys are almost adults, so they will be randomly picked up by their parents or relatives, even if they have a name for others to call.For someone like Lu Zhu who has just turned one year old, Master Guan has been eager to find someone to give her a name, which shows how much she is favored.

However, most of the people in the class still call her "Honghong" by her baby name.

Fortunately, the little girl slept soundly at night, even though it was a night watch, she just rested on a small couch next to her bed.Compared with the days when I was hiding in the flower building and the drunken guests yelled and smashed things from time to time at night, I was so noisy that I couldn't sleep, but it was better.

In the dead of night, people can't help feeling sad and thinking.

When he was caught doing his fingerprints, he gave his mother a teary eye for the last time. The woman who had protected him in the flower house for seven years sent her own flesh and blood to someone else, but there was still only a hazy mist in her eyes.

In the dark room, she just straightened her hair with her own blood-stained hands. A pink silk flower on the sideburns was dyed red by the blood, and it became as bright red as her name.

She left without looking back.

And even when he left, there were no tears.

There is hatred in my heart, but I also understand why my mother is so cruel and ruthless.

It's not that I can't afford to support him, but it's because the boy is too old to keep, so I come to you—the words my mother cried to Master Guan are still ringing in my ears.

In order to survive in this difficult world, one must be cruel and ruthless.

"Red bean cake..." Just as Xiaodouzi opened his eyes and thought about it, a dreamy murmur suddenly came from the gauze curtain beside him.

Hearing clearly that the little girl wanted to eat even in her dream, Xiaodouzi couldn't help laughing softly.

In the gloomy world, only this touch of red is the most vivid color.

No wonder everyone in the class dotes on her.

After sleeping until dawn, Xiaodouzi got up automatically and consciously folded the quilt and made the bed, then opened the curtain and tucked the corner of the quilt for Lu Zhu who was still in a deep sleep.

The movements are delicate and gentle.

Looking at this sleeping bun face, she couldn't help poking her cheek lightly with her finger.

The unbelievably soft touch made him stunned for a moment, and immediately put his hands behind his back as if guilty of guilt.

After confirming that the little girl was not awakened by his actions, Xiaodouzi pushed the door lightly and walked out. Looking at the noisy hall opposite with many figures, he took a deep breath.

From now on, this will be his home.

The author has something to say:

small theater:

As soon as he started, Xiaodouzi was puzzled by the two big bosses with the most "real power" among the children.

Little Stone: I am a senior brother, and it is my duty to take care of my juniors!

(Inner os: The little junior sister wants to cover up this little guy who looks like a stick, so I dare not disobey!)
