Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 113 Women don’t have to marry (45)

After adjusting his position, Jiang Qiucheng's mood calmed down a little.

Turning around, he saw the oil paper bag in Li's second hand. He probably guessed that the other party had just taken the time to buy midnight snacks, and the doubts in his heart dissipated a little.

"Little girl, it's so late. If you didn't stay at home, why did you come here alone?"

"But you got separated from your family while visiting the night market? Do you need our help?"

Hearing her question, the little girl lowered her head in embarrassment, then shook her head and whispered.

"We are not separated. My family lives in the alley behind."

Hearing this, Jiang Qiucheng looked behind her. The alley was quiet, and there wasn't even a wild cat walking around.

"Since home is not far away, why did you run out alone?"

Recalling the situation just now, Jiang Qiucheng felt a chill down her back. Fortunately, it was just an error, otherwise she wouldn't have known how deep a shadow it would have left on her.

"I, I also want to play the ring game."

"This is my money, can you let me use it once?"

The little girl opened her palm, revealing a copper coin that she had been holding tightly in her palm. When Jiang Qiucheng was in a daze, the little girl stuffed the copper coin in and begged pitifully in a low voice.

"Sister, please, I really want that doll."

"I know I don't have enough money, so I just want a circle. Just let me try it once."

"Just now I hid and watched secretly for a long time. I wanted to ask my mother-in-law to take me to play once, but she said these were all lies and told me not to believe it, but I clearly saw many people succeed."

"I picked up this copper coin on the street corner before. I kept it on my body. I originally wanted to exchange it for half a biscuit, but now I can use it to buy you a chance to set a trap, okay?"

……

The little girl raised her head and stared at you longingly. Jiang Qiucheng admitted that she really couldn't refuse.

She turned her head and glanced at Li Er, who was standing aside without saying a word, wanting to see the other party's attitude. Seeing Jiang Qiucheng, Li Er gave him a calm look, apparently intending to let Jiang Qiucheng take matters into his own hands.

Seeing that her boss was not impatient, Jiang Qiucheng felt more confident. She knelt down, looked into the little girl's eyes and said seriously.

"Although our game rules are three circles for five cents, it is already very late now and it is the closing stage. We can give you some discounts and allow you to buy a rattan circle for only one penny."

Hearing this, the little girl's eyes immediately surged with uncontrollable joy.

"But sister is a little curious, why do you like this tiger-head rag doll so much?"

No wonder Jiang Qiucheng was confused, because this tiger-headed rag doll looked a bit old. Its cloth surface was no longer bright and bright, just like an ancient map, recording the passage of time.

The head of the doll is the image of a naive tiger. It has some wear and tear, but its former might can still be seen vaguely.

The eyes were sewn with black buttons and had lost their former luster. The mouth was open, revealing two pointed tiger teeth. The body part is already a little soft, and the filling has collapsed, making it look a little weak. My limbs also seemed a little weak, and I couldn't move into various poses as flexibly as before.

Such tiger-headed rag dolls are very common in every household. Mothers will use the scraps of cloth left over from clothing to sew and mend to make more unique tiger-headed rag dolls. In a life of scarcity, children One of the few companion dolls. If we really want to compare, at most the overall color tone of this tiger head rag doll is more harmonious. It can be seen at a glance that it is made by craftsmen for sale.

Because this thing is very common, Jiang Qiucheng placed it in the first few rows from the beginning, but when the show ended, no one was willing to take it away.

Just when Jiang Qiucheng thought that this rag doll was going to continue to eat dust in the cargo box, this little girl suddenly appeared in such an unexpected way, and it really seemed like she would come looking for her by fate.

Hearing Jiang Qiucheng's question, the little girl hesitated for a moment and said sadly.

"I used to have a tiger-head rag doll that looked very similar to it. My grandma made it for me. I liked it very much and would sleep with it every day."

"But... A few years ago, my mother-in-law got seriously ill. After falling asleep, she never woke up again."

"My father married a new mother-in-law, and she gave birth to a younger brother. My younger brother liked my tiger-headed doll, so he took it away from me. When I went to ask for it again, it was completely gone."

After saying that her beloved doll was missing, the little girl's voice was obviously choked up, and there were tears in her eyes.

"Oh oh oh, my baby is gone. The new mother-in-law will only make it for my brother, not me anymore."

"I heard her calling me a loser and saying that I would always leave home in the future, so there was no need to spend too much time on me."

"My father doesn't like me to begin with, and he dislikes me even less after hearing what she said."

It is undoubtedly a cruel thing for a young child to admit that his relatives do not like him at all.

After hearing this, Jiang Qiucheng and Li Er looked at each other, and they both saw some emotion in each other's eyes.

Some people are richly clothed and well-fed, and pampered by the whole family; some people have nothing to eat, and their father does not care for them, let alone their stepmother. Sometimes, fate is so cruel.

Just when Jiang Qiucheng felt compassion and wanted to give the tiger-head rag doll directly to the little girl, the other party's words made her instantly look at him with admiration.

"The tiger-headed doll that grandma gave me is gone. I want to win another one for myself!"

"When I used to play alone, I liked throwing stones the most. Every time I threw the stones, I could throw them far and accurately."

"Try it for me!"

It may be due to inertial thinking. When she meets these more vulnerable groups, her instinctive reaction is to help directly and solve the most fundamental problem in one step, but she ignores the other party's own wishes.

Compared to giving the tiger-head rag doll directly to the little girl, it is obviously more meaningful to let her win the rag doll for herself.

"Okay! Sister appreciates you!"

"Here, here is your vine circle, take it."

Jiang Qiucheng did not give in anymore, but directly accepted the penny, took a rattan circle and handed it to her.

After taking the rattan ring, the little girl looked attentively and stared at the tiger-head rag doll not far away. After a few breaths, she threw the rattan ring in her hand outwards.

The eyes of Jiang Qiucheng and Li Er also followed the arc thrown by the rattan circle, moving from top to bottom.
