Slow and immortal

Chapter 231

Chapter 230

Although she didn't know why Xiao Yao cried so sadly, Yue'er obediently let her hug her tightly, even so tight that she couldn't breathe. Sprinkled with soup.

After a long time, when Xiao Yao finally had enough crying, she realized that she had ruined another lunch.

"...I'm sorry" she apologized again.

Yue'er didn't mind either, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Yue'er will re-download for sister."

"No, I'll do it myself, thank you for your face." Xiao Yao's eyes were swollen like walnuts.But after crying a lot, he let go of everything in his heart, and his mood was unexpectedly relaxed and calm.

She rubbed Yue'er's hair bun, picked up the bowl on the ground, walked to the stove, looked at the steaming cauldron and the ingredients and seasonings on the stove, she couldn't help but took a deep breath and sighed: There have been several I haven't touched these pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar for a hundred years.

Yue'er and Wu Ma watched her clumsily busy in front of the stove, the elder and the younger first looked at each other and smiled, then Yue'er happily ran to Xiao Yao's side, smiling, "Sister Xiao, I'll help. "

Xiao Yao didn't refuse either, and followed her skillful movements, learning while watching, and then picked up the lost skills again.

Wu Ma looked at the two with satisfaction, and finally joined with a smile. The atmosphere in the kitchen was harmonious for a while.None of them noticed that there were two figures standing outside the door since just now, but now they left quietly, just like when they came.

After Xiao Yao finished eating the noodles she made, she cleaned the pots and bowls again, and then went back to the hut where she lived, and cleaned up all the mess on the floor.After finishing everything, she tightened her palms and made up her mind to talk to the man named Chu Xun.

It was on the way there that Xiao Yao noticed the appearance of the Chu Mansion.In fact, it seems far-fetched to call this place a mansion. It looks like a small courtyard made up of several residential houses. It is square and has a large courtyard in the middle. There are six wing rooms in the east, west, north, and south.When she passed by the small courtyard, she found that there were a lot of sundries piled up in the courtyard. Among them, several large tanks took up the most space. There were also wooden shelves nearby. Piles are also mixed in.

She came to a wing room on the north side, tapped twice, and after a while, a lazy male voice sounded: "Come in."

As soon as Xiao Yao pushed open the door, she met the other party with a pair of dark and careless eyes, as if she knew she would come.The corner of the man's lips raised, and he smiled very nicely: "Miss Xiao is looking for me?"

"Yes," Xiao Yao nodded solemnly, directly expressing her intentions: "Xiao Yao is very grateful to Mr. Chu for saving his life. I am grateful for the life-saving grace. I was reckless earlier and offended you. I am here to apologize to you. .”

"Miss Xiao has figured it out? I just don't know how the girl is going to repay this kindness and make an apology." Chu Xun put his hand on his chin, a little bored.

Seeing that the other party was not polite to her at all, Xiao Yao let go of her original anxiety. She was afraid that he would nod politely and tell her to get out.

"Young Master Chu, I don't know if there is a shortage of people in your house. I can do anything, and I don't need wages, as long as I have a bed to eat."

Xiao Yao spoke very sincerely. At this moment, she clearly understood that she was no longer a high-ranking cultivator, and she had returned to the cautious and hard-working Xiao Yao when she was ten years old.Even though she has not lowered her status to speak like this for a long time, she has become a little strange and a little clumsy, but she will still work hard. She believes that this is not shameful or shameful, it is just a different way of life.

"Can do anything?" A smile flashed in Chu Xun's eyes, which was quite thought-provoking, "What can coolies do? I really lack labor here."

"Yes! When I was ten years old, I could carry Chai Yi and carry two buckets. Mr. Chu, when can I go to work?" Xiao Yao was afraid that he would regret it, so she nodded quickly to show that she could.

Seeing that she agreed without even thinking about it, Chu Xun was slightly surprised, but it was fleeting, "Don't worry about it, I'm not a place where people are exploited, and I still have to pay wages. How about it, I'll give you a month Half a penny. For dinner, there are only five of us here, so you can eat with us. As for where to live..." He thought for a while, "My room is tight, would you like to share a room with Xiaoyue? "

"I am willing! Thank you, Mr. Chu." Thinking of the girl with a round face who loves to smile, Xiao Yao's heart warmed, and the expression on her face softened a little, and she readily agreed.

"Well," Chu Xun nodded, "Then you go back to the original house to tidy up and move to Xiaoyue's. I will let Ah Yi go over tomorrow morning and tell you what to do."

"Okay, Mr. Chu, then I'll go down."

"and many more."

Just as she was about to leave, she was called by Chu Xun again, "Don't call me Mr. Chu from now on, just call me by my name."

"How can this be done, the young master is Xiao Yao's parents for food and clothing." Xiao Yao felt that it was a bit inappropriate to call him by his name directly, after thinking about it, he said: "Since the young master doesn't like it, how about I call you young master like Xiaoyue? "

This time Chu Xun didn't object anymore, he nodded slightly, his beautiful phoenix eyes raised slightly, "That's fine, then you can go."

After Xiao Yao left, a cold-faced young man walked in from the back of the room, his eyes were fixed on Chu Xun, and his face was a bit puzzled.

"Master, her identity is unknown, so you are so relieved to let her stay?"

"She is no longer a monk, so she won't cause any trouble. Besides, because of me, Yue'er, no child in the neighborhood is willing to get close to her on weekdays. It can be seen that this child likes her very much, so stay as a companion Pretty good too."

"Then young master, don't you think it's too dark to be a coolie for only half a sling of copper coins for a month? Even if you do the transportation at the miserly Old Man Li on the East Street, you will be provided with food and shelter, and you will still have a sling of copper coins every month."

"..."

"Yi, don't you think there's too much nonsense?"

"Then pretend I didn't ask, young master, I'll go out first."

Looking at the back of the young man leaving, he smiled even more. He tapped on the edge of the table and whispered in his mouth, which only he could hear, "I was just joking... Who would have thought she would agree so readily..."

Besides, Xiao Yao went back to the house and simply packed up her things before moving into Yue'er's house.When Yue'er heard that she wanted to stay, she giggled happily, and affectionately helped her put the quilt and pillow away, then took her hand and acted coquettishly,

"It's great that Sister Xiao is willing to stay, otherwise it would be boring to have only Wu Ma accompany Yue'er on weekdays."

Listening to her childish voice complaining softly, Xiao Yao couldn't help showing a rare smile on her face.She is penniless and has no fixed residence, so even if she wants to return to Xianyumen, she still has to make a long-term plan slowly.If you want to survive during this period, you have to eat and sleep, and have a place to stay in the secular world.She chose this place, mostly because of this kind and lovely girl, and this small mansion, which can give her a calm and soothing feeling.

"Actually, Yue'er can also go to the neighborhood to find other children to play with, and Mama Wu is too old to play anymore." She gently pinched the rosy little apple's face as she spoke.

I didn't think it would be okay if I didn't say it, but Yue'er's smile darkened instantly when she said it, she seemed a little aggrieved and angry, "I don't like to play with them, because they always speak ill of the young master, but the young master is obviously a good person people!"

Xiao Yao originally wanted to ask why, but when she saw her serious and sad face, she couldn't bear to add to her sadness. A doll at this age should smile more, so she gently took her into her arms Said: "It's okay, my sister will play with you in the future."

In an instant, the soft and waxy body in his arms trembled slightly, and when he raised his head again, his eyes sparkled, "Sister really wants to play with Yue'er, and won't you hate the young master?"

"Of course." Xiao Yao nodded solemnly, even though she didn't know the true meaning of the latter sentence.

"I knew Sister Xiao was a good person!"

Yue'er threw herself into Xiao Yao's arms again, her chubby body rubbed against her body, and the two got along harmoniously like a pair of real sisters.

After such a good night's sleep, Xiao Yao got up early the next day before dawn.When she came to the courtyard, the indifferent boy named Ah Yi was already standing in the courtyard waiting for her.

"How strong are you?" The boy didn't even say hello when he opened his mouth, and went straight to the point.

"I don't know," Xiao Yao was slightly taken aback, she really hadn't thought about this question.

"Can the stone pier over there be moved?" He pointed to a stone pier about half a meter high and the size of a bucket.

"I don't know, let me try it first." At this moment, Xiao Yao completely forgot that she was no longer a monk, and before she was a Broken Pill, she thought that it shouldn't be difficult, so she nodded seriously and rolled up her sleeves Walked to the side of the stone pier.

"puff,"

At the same time, the conversation between the two made Chu Xun, who was watching everything through the window not far away, couldn't help but choked on his tea.

Ah Yi of his family has a solid eye, and in his eyes, except for Yue'er, other women are probably not women.If he said he was a coolie, he would definitely measure it according to the standard of a coolie.

But it's fine if Ah Yi has a solid eye, why is this Miss Xiao also acting stupid with him? , Cough, no, I have to go there by myself.

But before he stepped out of the room, he saw that Xiao Yao had already lifted the stone pier easily, still supporting it with one hand.

Not only was Chu Xun surprised, but even Ah Yi, who was always stingy and showed his emotions, couldn't help being slightly moved, and praised: "It seems that the half hanging copper coin is really worth the money!"

"Really? Actually, it's nothing. I can lift even heavier weights." For some reason, Xiao Yao couldn't help being a little proud of being praised by the cold-faced young man, and a big stone fell in her heart. This shows that she is at least not a useless person. Don't be afraid of being driven away if you don't do well.Sui looked at her hands with satisfaction, and she couldn't figure it out, since the pill was broken, her strength seemed to be stronger than before.

"Ha ha,"

At this moment, a burst of laughter came from not far away. Turning her head, she saw the handsome young master, leaning against the railing with his head tilted, laughing happily with his belly in his arms. His exaggerated smile was bright. And dazzling, completely different from the mocking smile with a little alienation before.

Xiao Yao suddenly remembered that she was no longer an omnipotent monk, so...

She looked at the boy who didn't seem to be joking at all, and finally her eyes locked on the man who was about to collapse with laughter.

This young master is really annoying.
