I became an old man in my leisure time

Chapter 040 Snowball fight, asking for favors

"Xiaoman, look here." Gu Ke shamelessly used the name calling method.

Xiaoman subconsciously raised her head.

Huh! Pia!

The sneak attack was successful, and Xiaoman, who was still laughing foolishly, disappeared with only a white patch of skin.

She was caught off guard, and suddenly "blind", and felt a chill all over her head, and was stunned for a moment.

Bai Suqing burst out laughing, and raised her hand to the side of her face to avoid being seen laughing.

Xiaoman's stupid head raised, and the posture of accurately catching the snowball with her face was too funny, she couldn't help it.

Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and finally reacted: I was, actually, attacked by Gu Ke? How could he be attacked?

The naughty child from the mountain village didn't have the habit of crying when being beaten, so he could only give an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and a ball for a ball.

The snow in the mountains became a battlefield for the two people, with snow foam in the air and snowballs flying, mixed with shouts of mutual challenge: "Don't run, stand still if you have the guts."

"Don't chase me if you have the guts, take my ball."

"Oh, look at me, I'm shooting all the way around."

"Haha, I can't hit you. Take my ten thousand balls and return to the clan."

"Ahhhh, you're a scoundrel, hiding dirt in the snow."

Bai Suqing smiled without saying a word, and floated back more than ten meters, happy that the two men were playing monkeys for her for free.

Perhaps in this winter in Yulong Valley, she and they will not be lonely.

Gu Ke and Xiaoman played for a while, but saw five figures floating from the direction of the Ancestral Mausoleum Hall. The red robes in the front were extremely eye-catching in the snow, but they were Miss Qin and the four girls of Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju.

He stopped running and raised his hand to signal a pause, but Xiaoman couldn't stop in time, and a big snowball had already hit him, hitting half of his head white.

Miss Qin just landed a few meters away, with a very strange expression on her face.

She seemed to want to laugh but didn't, and seemed to want to say something but didn't, and felt a little stuck for a while.

Meishu was the most considerate, and hurriedly bowed to Gu Ke and said: "Mr. Su, it snowed suddenly today, and Miss was worried about you, so she came to see you."

Gu Ke nodded to Miss Qin after hearing this: "Thank you Miss Qin for your concern, we are fine here. Well, why don't you go have a cup of hot tea and talk slowly?"

Miss Qin finally adjusted her facial expression and nodded lightly: "That's great."

The fact that Miss Qin could say "great" in her mouth would increase the friendship between the two parties in the game by at least +10 several times.

Gu Ke smiled in his heart, wiped the snow residue on his head, and led the way.

On the more than 100-meter mountain road back, he did not forget to chat with Miss Qin.

Miss Qin answered questions such as how the six maids recovered, the effects of purple wheat and purple leaf tea, etc.

Although she didn't talk much, she was not perfunctory at all, and she was as honest as ever.

Back to the hut, Gu Ke and Miss Qin sat down at the stone table outside the door, and Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju retreated to the door of the hut and waited.

Xiaoman first served the two purple leaf tea.

This is Gu Ke and Bai Suqing's current favorite. There is almost always a big pot warming on the small oven, so they can drink it at any time, and the quantity is large enough to satisfy them.

Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju were naturally not ignored, and Xiaoman also served them a bowl.

After all, he was her and Gu Ke's cheap master, and he never slacked off when teaching them martial arts. Both of them were not difficult to get along with, and their relationship became much more familiar in a few days.

Before, when Miss Qin and Gu Ke drank tea, the four of them had to get the consent or invitation of one of them before they could drink beside them.

Now, Miss Qin asked them to build a good relationship with Gu Ke and Xiao Man, and they also told their experience of getting along with Gu Ke and Xiao Man when they went back.

The conclusion is that Gu Ke is not from a wealthy family, and you can't pay too much attention to complicated rules and etiquette when getting along with others, which will make him feel alienated.

However, Miss Qin and the others also unanimously agreed that Gu Ke is definitely not an ordinary person.

First of all, his figure and appearance have changed a lot from when he was just rescued.

His skin color has gradually become whiter, and his height has increased by more than half a foot. He looks like an ordinary child of fifteen or sixteen years old.

Secondly, his speech and behavior are also not like a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, and he is quite mature.

In addition, he doesn't quite understand the rules and etiquette of wealthy families, but he is very particular about the details of life.

Wash your hands before meals, rinse your mouth after meals, take off your straw sandals before entering the house, and then clean the dust and dirt on your cloth shoes, and even urge Xiaoman to do it together.

He won't talk too close to people, and he won't spit too much. Although his words are straightforward and simple, he doesn't burst into vulgarity.

He doesn't like sweet food, and prefers the light-tasting purple leaf tea. He doesn't act pretentiously when eating, but he won't gobble it up.

Not to mention ordinary families, some local gentry and wealthy people are not so particular.

After discussing with Miss Qin and the others, they could only guess that he was definitely not a commoner, and was most likely from a hermit sect in the Northern Desert.

That's why he spoke with a Northern Desert accent, but he didn't quite understand the rules and etiquette of the Dawu Dynasty, and he also wanted to know about the situation of the Dawu Dynasty and the four vassal states in the southeast, northwest, and northeast.

If Gu Ke knew, he would just smile and pass it by.

In his previous life, he was a person who received nine years of compulsory education, and he was still in the Internet age of information explosion.

As long as you are not those who are used to nodding your head and mindless entertainment, you basically only need to open Baidu and enter keywords to learn any basic knowledge.

The knowledge obtained in this way is not worth mentioning compared to professionals, but in ancient times when the illiteracy rate was more than 99%, it is definitely considered to be well-educated.

Gu Ke here probably guessed the reason why Miss Qin came to the door in person today from some of her expressions.

He didn't like beating around the bush, waiting for her to speak would be a waste of time, so he took the initiative to speak: "It snowed heavily today, and the weather will get colder. The ancestral mausoleum is damp and cold, so we need to prepare more firewood."

Miss Qin's eyes lit up, and she nodded involuntarily: "That's right."

Gu Ke waited for a few breaths, but didn't wait for her second half of the sentence. He smiled helplessly and helped her to make the request: "It will be difficult to collect firewood after the snow. The gray thatch and dwarf pine in my field grow rapidly, and I need to cut off a part of them every day to leave space for them to continue growing. If you are free, come to help clean them up, how about it?"

Miss Qin was quicker than her brain again. After nodding, she felt that she was too unrestrained. She quickly picked up the tea bowl and drank water tactfully to cover up the little embarrassment.

After finishing the adjustment, she put down the tea bowl and nodded solemnly: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Su. The palace is really cold and there is a great shortage of firewood. We will not refuse. If you need anything in the future, please ask."

Gu Ke smiled and nodded: "Okay, I have something to ask for now."

Miss Qin and the four girls Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju all looked at each other. They really had never seen someone who was so quick and decisive in collecting debts.

"Mr. Su, please speak." Miss Qin remained calm and took it.

Gu Ke looked at Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju: "I think the four of you..."
