Chapter 92 Xiaorou's Go and Stay
After dinner that day, everyone cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Xiaorou helped Zhen Xing wash the dishes. Qi Bosong picked up the sword on the table, pulled it out of the scabbard, and wiped it with a clean handkerchief.
There is no dust on the sword, and the sword has never killed anyone. However, this is undoubtedly a superior sword. Even in the dark room, there will be a little cold light.
Xiaorou held a tray in her hand, and as soon as she walked in, she couldn't help but be shocked when she saw Qi Bosong holding the sword in her hand. Qi Bosong was shocked when he saw Xiaorou, so he hurriedly sent the sword back to the scabbard and smiled at Xiaorou.
Xiaorou put the tea in the tray on the table, and Qi Bosong's eyes regained his gentle eyes. He picked up the naughty little tiger.
This little tiger has been getting fatter and fatter recently. The round belly, if it is, it will be a little difficult to let it drill the mouse hole now! Qi Boxong grabbed his little short hair, which was so funny.
The little tiger "meowed" twice, and Qi Boxong put it on the sofa. Xiaohu rushed into Xiaorou's arms. Qi Boxong couldn't help frowning. It turned out that even cats liked beautiful women.
"Brother, today, I heard from Brother Xiao Fuzi that the goods in the warehouse have been cleared, and other goods have not been bitten by mice!" Xiaorou said.
Qi Boxong nodded, which was also a burst of embarrassment.
What do you say when a lonely man and a woman live in the same room? The most annoying thing is Zhen Xing. Why don't you come back? He and Xiaorou are not familiar with each other. What can he say to her?
Qi Bosong rubbed his fingers boredly. Seeing this, Xiaorou hurriedly said, "Brother, I saw a bruise on your hand two days ago. I don't know if it's better now?"
Qi Bosong was even more embarrassed when he heard this. He looked at his hand and said with a smile, "I didn't know that my hand was injured. Ha ha, we rude people are like this."
"Big brother is really modest. How can a room full of books be said to be rude? I stayed in that room for two days, and I felt that it was stained with books. Xiaorou lowered her head and said while touching the little tiger's hair.
Qi Bosong seemed to have found a topic and hurriedly asked, "Do you like reading?"
Xiaorou blushed and lowered her head and said, "In the past, I learned a few words from my father. However, when I was a child, my family was poor and I didn't read seriously!"
"Oh, there are some books in that room. If you like to read them, just take them. Ha ha, it's also what I saved when I had nothing to do with Zhen Xing in the past two years. There are no good books, just take them out and read them when you have nothing to do. Qi Bosong said.
Xiaorou's eyes couldn't help shining. She raised her head and looked at Qi Boxong excitedly.
"Brother, is it really okay?" Xiaorou asked.
Qi Bosong smiled and said, "What's wrong? You can watch it if you like it. Zhen Xing usually likes to watch "Taiping Guangji" and "Sou Shen Ji" and so on. She likes that kind!"
Xiaorou nodded. At this time, Zhenxing finished packing up everything before she came in. Qi Bosong was relieved. Really, I didn't know what I was busy with just now.
"Sister, I made tea. Try it!" Xiaorou quickly put down Xiaohu and stood up.
Zhen Xing nodded, sat next to Qi Boxong, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Zhen Xing laughed and showed a small dimple. Qi Bosong looked at Zhen Xing happily. This girl, like a little tiger recently, has gained weight again, and a small dimple appeared on her fat face.
"Is it cold?" As Qi Bosong said, he took Zhen Xing's hand. No, Zhen Xing's hands are cold. It's the most waste of hands after washing. Every time Qi Boxong scrambles to wash the dishes, Zhenxing always won't let it.
"Xiaorou, shall we go to the temple tomorrow? I heard that the nearby Longquan Temple is the most effective. We went up the mountain to worship and pray for good luck. How's it going?" Zhen Xing said excitedly.
Xiaorou looked up at Zhen Xing and Qi Boxong, and blushed and lowered her head.
"Sister, tomorrow, I want to apply for a washerwoman. I'm afraid I can't go with my sister!" Xiaorou muttered in a low voice.
"The washerwoman? I don't agree!" Zhen Xing said.
Qi Bosong immediately gently pinched Zhen Xing's hand. You are still a girl. If you do that kind of work too much, it will hurt your body. Besides, you hang out with a group of widows every day. Do you still want to get married? Zhen Xing said.
Qi Bosong frowned and took a deep breath. This Zhen Xing is really nosy. She doesn't go out to work. Are you going to feed her?
"Sister, I can't be your drag. You are kind-hearted, saved me, and helped bury my mother. With this, even if Xiaorou dies a thousand times, she can't repay you. Sister, you'd better let me try it. I can't be a burden to you!" Xiaorou said that her eyes turned red again.
"You can't say that. Just think of us as your own brother and sister-in-law. You are a girl, how can you go to that kind of place! The rest of my life will be destroyed!" Zhen Xing said.
"Sister, we met by chance. You can save Xiaorou at the most critical moment. Xiaorou can't repay you in her life. Xiaorou, Xiaorou can't be a burden to you!" With that, Xiaorou's tears fell down.
Qi Bosong took a sip of tea calmly. Seeing that everyone was in a deadlock, Xiaohu felt bored. He jumped down from the sofa and climbed directly to Zhen Xing's ** to sleep.
"In my opinion, it's better to let Xiaorou try it first. Xiaorou is also a girl with backbone. I think Xiaorou can try it. If not, ask Xiaorou to go to the supermarket to help. That day, I saw that Xiaorou was careful. If Niangde didn't want her to do the laundry, I asked her to help Sun Dequan sort out the goods. However, this supermarket is a place with many men after all. In the future, I'm afraid it will have some impact on Xiaorou. Qi Bosong said.
"Real, why do you ask her to apply for a washerwoman? Just stay and help Sun Dequan!" Zhen Xing said angrily.
"There are many men in the supermarket after all. It's a big girl's house. It's like an exhibition every day. How bad is it? In the future, this reputation will spread. How can she get married? You have to think about Xiaorou's future!" Qi Bosong said.
"But she went to be a washerwoman, so what will she do in the future?" Zhen Xing refuted it.
"Brother, sister, don't quarrel about Xiaorou!" Xiaorou suddenly said.
Qi Bosong squeezed his lips, and he couldn't explain it clearly to Zhen Xing. Zhen Xing has such a cow temper. She is so stubborn that she can't pull back ten cows.
"Brother, sister, you'd better let Xiaorou have a try." Xiaorou said.
Zhen Xing turned Qi Boxong's eyes white and sighed.
On the morning of the second day, Qi Boxong went to work first, and Zhen Xing stayed at home. Xiaorou packed up the simple luggage. The luggage was really simple and terrible. There were only a few clothes. Zhen Xing was sad when she saw it.
In particular, when she came to Yili with Qi Boxong, she had nothing. I had to buy a few sets of clothes on the road. From a dilapidated yard to today's big house, it can be said that it has gone through ups and downs all the way. Think about it, have she and Qi Bosong experienced less in the past two years?
Seeing this girl, Zhen Xing seemed to see herself before. Strong and stubborn, with a trace of stubbornness in disapprence, Zhenxing looked at the girl and gently patted her on the shoulder.
"Let's go!" Zhen Xing said.
The two came to the laundry on West Street together. Zhen Xing and Xiao Rou walked around one pole and one pole of clothes. Those clothes are either about to dry or dripping with wet drops of water. Zhen Xing couldn't help frowning and looking at the sewage flowing all over the ground. The laundry lady was dressed in dark blue earthen clothes, and her sleeves were raised high, revealing her red arms covered by cold water and ice.
The laundry lady laughed and said vulgar words as she washed the clothes. Zhen Xing remembered the poor woman she had seen somewhere in the past. The old woman was not young. In order to make a living, sew clothes for all kinds of people.
Xiaorou walked in front with a bag, and Zhen Xing walked in the back in a cotton-padded jacket. Zhen Xing pushed away the wet clothes one by one, and Xiao Rou asked several washer maids about the details of the application.
The washerwoman looked up and down at Xiaorou, and the three monks had no food to eat. Everyone knows this truth very well. The laundry ladies avoided Xiaorou from afar. At the sight of Xiaorou asking questions, they pretended to be deaf and dumb.
Zhen Xing looked at this group of women coldly, just like those women in the palace. When she saw a foreign enemy, the first way she thought of was to kill the foreign enemy. However, everyone doesn't make a living. Why is there a need to be embarrassed?
"Xiao Rou, let's go!" Zhen Xing said.
"Sister!" Xiaorou said.
"Don't you see what their attitude is? How can you tell me to rest assured that you stay here? What if you are bullied? Don't worry, I have a bite of food, and I won't make you hungry!" Zhen Xing said.
"But, sister..." Xiaorou hesitated for a moment.
"Come back with me. This is not the place you should stay. If you are willing, you and Sun Dequan will manage the warehouse. This is not an easy job. Although there are more men, it will always be easier than here. Zhen Xing said.
Xiaorou's eyes turned red again, nodded, and a crystal tear fell down with the fluctuation of Xiaorou's body.
When Qi Bosong saw that Zhen Xing brought Xiao Rou back, he couldn't help smiling bitterly. He had already guessed that Zhen Xing would not let Xiaorou do that kind of work. But he deliberately didn't stop it.
He knew Zhen Xing's temper that if he was blocking him this time, Zhen Xing would never stop with him. Just let her go. Hey, this little girl, a big girl, comes to their house. If she can't get married, she can't keep her son as a child bride, can she?
Qi Bosong was so worried about this that his hair was about to turn gray. A good girl came, but she couldn't let those chew their tongues outside say something. Otherwise, it will ruin his reputation for half of his life!
Qi Bosong looked at Zhen Xing's red face and smiled bitterly.
