Qingben beauty

Chapter 22

Walk along the long corridor until you reach the end, there is a small door next to it, and behind the small door is a small staircase.

Climbing up from the stairs, there are several small rooms with a floor height of less than two meters, separated by more than a hundred square meters, and a narrow passage in the middle, with incandescent lights on.

Xuemei led me to the door of the last room.

Just as she raised her hand, someone said inside: "Is there a guest?"

"It's not a guest, it's a relative of Boss Gao. Boss Gao said to send it to you." Xuemei put down her hand, with a look of disdain on her face, but her voice was soft and soft.

"Send me here?" Following the voice, the door opened, and a stooped old woman in her early sixties stood in the light in front of the door.

"Yes, what Boss Gao meant." Xuemei still said in that tone.

I sneaked a glance at her from the corner of my eye, saw the obvious disdain on her face, and then turned back to look at the old woman.

If you take a closer look, you can see that the old woman's eyes are a kind of strange gray color, which looks quite scary.

I have seen this kind of eyes before, Gu Mingyuan said, what kind of obstacle is too strong, so the eyeballs are broken.

The old woman is blind!
I took a small half step to the side, keeping away from Xuemei.

I don't like how Xuemei treats this old woman.

"What does Boss Gao mean?" the old woman asked back.

"Yes." Xuemei said with a smile, then turned to me and said, "This is Aunt Liu, the most powerful person here, and you will live with her from now on. Yes, he'll tell you."

After finishing speaking, Xuemei turned around and left, her high heels stomping on the floor, as if she wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

I glanced at Xuemei's back, stepped forward and bowed to Granny Liu, and said, "My name is Gu Qing, I have strength, and I can help you with things."

Granny Liu didn't make a sound.

I didn't get up, I kept my bent over posture.

After a full minute, Granny Liu snorted and said, "How old are you?"

"It's fourteen, it's full today." I stood up straight and said.

"Fourteen?" Granny Liu sneered again: "Fourteen is not too young. If you want to make money, the next job will be much easier."

I froze for a moment, then turned my head and glanced in the direction Xuemei was walking.

What's next?

I don't quite understand the meaning of this sentence, but I understand one thing, there is no free lunch in the world, I am a 14-year-old girl who has not gone to school...

An easy and lucrative job...

At the beginning, I would rather kneel down than steal or grab. Now, I can only make money with my own hands.

I bent down to Granny Liu again, and said, "Aunt Liu, I just want to rely on my own strength to earn a living honestly."

I lowered my head and couldn't see Granny Liu's expression. I could only see her feet in blue cloth shoes rubbing on the ground.

Then, her voice was flat and cold and said, "Come in."

When I stood up straight, Granny Liu had already gone back into the room. The door was open, and the room was deep into the room. The light in the corridor seemed to be unable to penetrate, but only a few inches away, it was pitch black. one slice.

This made the door look like a silent mouth, separating the inside and the outside into two worlds.

I was a little apprehensive and hesitated in my steps.

But this hesitation was only for a few seconds. When I heard Granny Liu coughing like a chuckle, I immediately raised my foot and walked inside.

Whatever it means to be inside, it can't be worse than staying outside.

The lights in the room were not turned on, and there was a huge color difference with the light outside. When I stepped in, my eyes couldn't react for a moment, and my eyes were pitch black, and then it seemed that countless stars lit up.

It was so bright that my head was dizzy for a moment.

Then, I tripped over an unknown object on the ground and fell straight to the ground.

His head just hit Granny Liu's blue cloth shoe.

"You're a bit on the head..." Granny Liu let out a chuckle, her voice paused, and she sighed, "Okay, this is fate, so I'll accept you as an apprentice, right?"

apprentice?

This fall was a bit hard, my body was in pain, and there seemed to be many birds flying in front of my eyes, and I couldn't respond to Granny Liu's words.

But I instinctively know that an apprentice corresponds to a master, and as long as the word "master" is used, it is to teach skills!
Immediately, I knocked my head on her blue cloth shoe twice again, and called out: "Master!"

Granny Liu laughed: "You are clever, but, since the master has been called, do you know what to do?"

doing what?
I got up from the ground in a hurry, first put down the quilt on my back, and then groped, kneeling upright, upright, upright...

Although the room was pitch black and I couldn't see anything, I still followed the etiquette taught by Mingyuan, which is said to be the most formal and sincere etiquette in ancient times, and folded my hands and paid homage three times.

Granny Liu's breathing seemed to be a little tighter, and after I finished saluting, she asked, "Who did you learn this from?"

"My grandpa." I raised my head and looked in the direction of the voice.

After the first period of time, I can see some light in my eyes at this time. Although Granny Liu's face is still not clear, the expression on that face is obviously much more relaxed.

From the very beginning, I had a feeling that although Granny Liu was blind, she could feel all my movements. Now it seems that I didn't feel wrong.

Gu Mingyuan said that if you want others to be sincere to you, you have to be sincere to others. This ceremony looks simple, but it doesn't have any intentions. As long as you understand it, the other party will know every action you make.

Even a blind person can feel it.

"Your grandfather? You have a grandfather who understands this, why do you still come here?" Granny Liu asked.

"He's dead." After saying these three words, my heart was still sore suddenly, causing my voice to pause. I took a deep breath, and after suppressing the astringency in my eyes, I continued. : "I'm an orphan, he adopted me, he died two months ago, his family..."

My heart hurt again, and I pressed my hand on my heart, and I couldn't speak anymore.

Gu Mingyuan's children said that Gu Mingyuan did not go through the adoption procedures, so I have nothing to do with him...

Granny Liu reached out and patted my shoulder, and said to the door, "The switch is there, go and close the door, and clean your own bed first."

I responded with a low voice, stood up and touched the door, then the switch, and turned on the light.

When the light came on, I closed the door, and after turning around, I gasped suddenly in fright.
