Chapter 4 fetching water & shaving hair

The dog's arms holding the cat were slightly tightened. Even though he had never read a book, he knew that hair should not be cut randomly. Cutting hair is not a good thing. , there used to be a punishment for sinners who shaved off their hair.

Qu Qing's face was pale, and he didn't put on a fierce expression to force them to do anything, but the dog knew that he couldn't resist, this was the first day he brought the cat to this house, and Qu Qing could have put the cat If you can let him and the cat stay, then cutting off his hair is nothing.

Thinking of this, he agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

Qu Qing also heaved a sigh of relief, after all, if the other party values ​​hair more than life, he really doesn't know what to do, he absolutely doesn't want to experience the feeling of feeding lice for himself.

Turning around and holding the wooden bucket to poke the stream, the dog saw this and wanted to carry the water. Qu Qing glanced at his thin body and slender wrists, with his body turned slightly to one side, blocking his hand to carry the wooden bucket. Opening his mouth to reject him, Qu Qing hesitated when he saw the visible panic on his face, and asked him to fetch half a basin of water with the wooden basin and go back.

The panic on Gou'er's face dissipated when he heard this, and then faint joy appeared.

Qu Qing understands that this man is like this because he is dependent on others and has no dependence, so he is always in a state of instability, constantly looking at other people's faces and doing more things to prove the value of his existence.

When he went to other people's houses when he was a child, he also had this feeling more or less, but it was not serious to this extent.

Qu Qing seemed to casually glance at the man who was following him a few steps behind him very hard. From the corner of his eyes, he saw that he did not listen to his advice and only filled the basin with water, but filled the whole basin, so Now when walking, the water in the basin swayed from side to side and spilled a lot, and most of the clothes on his body were wet, and the smaller one next to him almost had to run to catch up, maybe his body was not well developed, and he After falling a few times, Qu Qing noticed that he had fallen so much in one day, not to mention crying, he didn't even see a drop of tears from him.

Doesn't he hurt?

Qu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, pretended to be tired and put down the wooden barrel, then switched to the other hand to carry it, and when he walked again, his steps were already much slower than before.

At the beginning, the dog really couldn’t keep up with Qu Qing’s footsteps, and the water in the basin was always spilled. While he blamed himself for his clumsiness, he didn’t dare to lag behind at all. For the cat who was struggling to follow, he I don't dare to have time to help, and I don't want to say anything encouraging to Mao'er, for fear of causing Qu Qing's displeasure. After all, Mao'er... and Qu Qing have no blood relationship, and even now he is not sure, Qu Qing What is Qing's plan for Mao'er?

If... If he wants to drive the cat away, he will never stay.

When the dog was thinking about these things anxiously, seeing Qu Qing suddenly stop, and then walked again, he was surprised to find that it was not so difficult for him to keep up, and the cat finally stopped running and took a short walk. The legs ran desperately to keep up.

After entering the threshold, Qu Qing speeded up his pace in vain, went to the kitchen and put down the wooden bucket, then turned around and took the wooden basin filled with water from the man. When he got it, the weight of the wooden basin made him feel a little hard Suddenly secretly surprised.

Before the dog could react, the arm that was so sore that it was almost unbearable suddenly became lighter. He raised his head and looked at Qu Qing's back in a daze.

Seeing Qu Qing enter the kitchen, he hesitated for a moment. He wanted to go to help, but he remembered that he was not allowed to enter even the kitchen at home, because he was wary of him and the cat, and ordinary people's kitchens are not easy to let outsiders enter. , Thinking of this, he didn't dare to follow without authorization, and he didn't dare to enter the house, so he stood in the yard, thinking that he would wait for Qu Qing to come out and give him orders. .

After Qu Qing took the water and prepared the firewood, he rummaged for a long time, and found that there was neither any fire book nor matches. He almost scratched his head and scratched his head, wishing impatiently that he had a lighter in his hand at this time.

In the end, I gave up, thinking about letting the native outside come, he should know how to light the fire.

Now he is a little lucky that the mysterious person gave him a native roommate, otherwise he is a modern person with black eyes, if he is the only one, he might really be caught blind.

Qu Qing went out and saw the man with his back turned to him, basking in the sun with his wet clothes on his chest, while the child next to him, whose clothes were not wet, imitated the adult next to him, looking very imposing. Sunning in a good manner, Qu Qing looked at this scene and found it very interesting, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly unconsciously, with a smile in his eyes, he opened his mouth and said to the person's back: "Hey, what's your name. "

The sudden sound startled the two of them, the dog immediately put down his clothes and turned around, and the cat also hid behind the dog vigilantly.

Seeing their nervousness, Qu Qing felt that he was a bit like a bandit entering the village to them, the smile in his eyes faded away, the dog probably realized that his behavior had gone too far, but he didn't know what to say, I had no choice but to answer Qu Qing's question humbly: "I... call Hua... Hua Gou'er, and everyone in my family calls me Gou'er."

"Oh……"

Qu Qing thought the name was really random. Although he had heard that in ancient times, poor families would give their children a humble name before they grew up, just to make it easier for them to support them, but this person looks quite big now, so how could he still be called? Such a name.

He didn't express any opinion on this simple and casual name, and then turned his eyes to the child: "What's his name?"

Surprise flashed in Gou'er's eyes, and his voice was two points higher. He hurriedly pulled Mao'er to him and introduced: "His name is Mao'er, he has no surname..."

Because his family did not allow him to use his own surname on the picked-up child, nor did he give him a name, so he gave the cat a name that was very similar to himself.

Cats and dogs?Qu Qing meditated for a moment in his heart, lamenting that he really didn't care about it, and there was an atmosphere of being ignored everywhere. Judging from the reaction of the middle-aged woman during the day, the status of the big and small in the family is probably very low .

"I see, so, dog, can you make a fire?"

Qu Qing's voice was neither fast nor slow in Gou'er's ears, it was elegant and friendly, and it was completely different from the bluffing, frivolous and rude ordinary farmer. He didn't understand that he hated Qu Qing so much in the first place. But at this moment, he felt that there was nothing wrong with him.

"Yes, I will," he nodded hastily, "I will do all the housework, and I will do it very well."

"Then you come and boil the water."

After giving the order, the dog went in, found the flint, and lit the fire with two nimble strokes. Only then did Qu Qing know how the fire was lit here, thinking that he must try it himself later.

After cleaning the cauldron and boiling the water, he went out and began to search for scissors again, but after searching for a long time, let alone scissors, he didn't even find a knife. Thinking that he had to cut his hair, Qu Qing finally He set his sights on the kitchen knife.

Heads must be cut.

Thinking of those lice, Qu Qing went to pick up the kitchen knife, looked at the dull blade, then took a bowl and sharpened the knife with the bottom of the bowl.

The dog squatting next to the match to gather firewood heard the sound of sharpening the knife, and was inexplicably terrified. It quietly raised its head and looked at Qu Qing several times, while the cat outside, because Qu Qing was inside, did not dare to come in, so it just walked in. He sneaked a peek inside the door, and dodged aside as soon as Qu Qing went out. At this time, he watched Qu Qing sharpen his knife, and with one eye, he watched the adult's movements in puzzlement.

After sharpening the knife, Qu Qing went to take a stool and put it in the yard. With the knife in his hand, seeing the fearful eyes of the two, he rolled his eyes and pinched all his long hair in his hands. The hair was cut off from the root with a knife.

Seeing his movements, one big and one small were stunned in shock.

After the hair was cut off, he felt a lot lighter on his head, but as he touched the uneven hair, he thought that he must find a way to trim it properly, otherwise it would definitely look ugly.

Holding a large handful of black hair about half a meter long that was cut off in his hand, he thought that he had been washed to death just now, and a lot of soap horns were wasted, so he should shave it, otherwise he probably wouldn't have the time to deal with it so much s hair.Looking at the two of them, he said in a gentle voice, "Cat, dog, you two, who will come first?"

The dog blushed inexplicably when he heard his name called, and then pulled the cat to him: "I'll come first."

Qu Qing nodded and asked him to sit on the chair. Considering that in order to completely eradicate lice, the hair should not have the chance to hide the lice, and it would be unsightly to shave it too short. He thought about it and decided to leave a finger-knuckle length Hair begins to shave.

Gou'er felt that his hands picked up his hair strand by strand, and saw the things that belonged to his body move away from him little by little. He thought he would be sad, but looked at Qu Qing's serious face. , he found that not only was he not sad, but he also felt a kind of unspeakable joy.

He personally shaved himself and the cat, and he shaved himself. Does this mean that he will not drive himself and the cat away?

When shaving his head, Qu Qing noticed that there was still greenness between his brows and eyes, so he asked curiously, "How old are you this year?"

"I... will be eighteen next month..." Speaking of this, he slightly lowered his head and eyes. In fact, everyone in the family is considered to be a false age, and his mother often whispered in his ears that he will soon be 19 years old. Old man, why can't he get married? He knows that he is old, and most husbands don't like him so old, so when he said it, he deliberately said his real age. Anyway... this is not a lie .Even so, he still dared not look at Qu Qing with a guilty conscience.

Qu Qing didn't know what was going on in his heart at all, he just sighed silently in his heart, he was only seventeen, indeed he was only an older child.

The cat standing on the side watched Qu Qing shave the dog's head curiously, without blinking his eyes, perhaps because Qu Qing's movements were very gentle, and he had never spoken ill of him before, so his fear was not as great as before. It was so intense that he even secretly looked at Qu Qing curiously.

Qu Qing raised his head and met Mao'er's gaze, then smiled kindly at him.

The cat brushed the ground and buried its head on its chest again.

Qu Qing felt a little distressed at once, could it be that he laughed terribly?
