Lun said that the accountant had asked him to help write a lot of letters these days, and this was an advance salary.After eating, he took enough money to buy shoes, and handed over the rest of the money to Liu Hai.

Liu Hai didn't refuse either, staring at the bag of broken silver in his hand in a daze.

When Wu Zonglun arrived at the fish shop the next afternoon, the accountant really found him something to do, but instead he copied a bunch of ledgers. Wu Zonglun had no choice but to sit down and copy the whole afternoon.After finally getting off work, he trotted all the way to the tailor shop, but fortunately he caught up with it before closing.

After he picked out the shoes and went home, he saw Mrs. Yu sitting alone in the yard weaving fish baskets, and said, "Mother, I bought you sweet-scented osmanthus cake, where are your bangs?"

Yu stopped and was stunned: "Didn't Liu Hai go looking for you? Why, you didn't come back together?"

Wu Zonglun was also stunned: "No, he didn't look for me. It doesn't matter, I will meet him."

When he went out, he saw Liu Haishen walking back with one foot shallow and one foot shallow.

Wu Zonglun saw that Liu Hai's complexion was not good, so he didn't ask him where he was going, but helped him to go home, took out new shoes and helped Liu Hai change into it himself.

Seeing that instead of smiling, Liu Hai had a sad look on his face, he couldn't help but worry: "Hai'er? What's the matter? Where did you go this afternoon?"

Liu Hai didn't answer, for a long time, he suddenly said: "Why do you still have a pair?"

Wu Zonglun said: "Didn't you say that you need to go up the mountain to pay for shoes, I just want to buy two pairs for you to wear."

"Isn't it good for the two of us to have a pair?" Liu Hai pointed to Wu Zonglun's shoes. Wu Zonglun looked down and saw a small hole in the toe.

He smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's okay, just make it up."

In fact, ordinary people seldom buy shoes, and those with female relatives buy materials to make shoes by themselves, but Yu is blind and cannot afford needles and threads.No one taught Liu Hai how to sew since he was a child, so he could only do some mending, and he couldn't do the difficult work of making shoes.Therefore, he cherishes his shoes very much on weekdays, and he does not wear cloth shoes when he can wear straw sandals. When he goes up the mountain, if he stands on a flat bottom to chop firewood, he will probably take off his shoes.

This is the first time he has two pairs of brand new shoes at the same time.

Liu Hai looked at the shoes in his hand, and suddenly covered his mouth, tears fell down, Wu Zonglun knew what happened to Liu Hai, and didn't rush him, just stepped forward and hugged him, waiting for Liu Hai to calm down Say it yourself.

But before Liu Hai said anything, Yu Shi came in, and the two hurriedly separated and sat down.Mrs. Yu asked Liu Hai where he was just now, and Liu Hai said: "I went to look for Brother Wu, but I couldn't find it."

The head hangs lower.

Yu couldn't see his expression, believed it, and sighed: "I'm tired of being together all day long, can't I see enough? Why do I have to chase after him to pick him up? It's not a good thing for two people to be too tired!"

Shaking his head, he said, "Zong Lun, what kind of sweet-scented osmanthus cake is it? It makes my teeth hurt. Take it and eat it, I don't like such sweet and greasy things!"

Wu Zonglun knew that Yu Shi's mouth was tough and his heart was soft. What she said just now was rough but not rough.

He suddenly realized that he was with Liu Hai every day, wishing not to be separated all the time, wishing to put his heart on him, but it was because he still had some worries in his heart.If two people live each day as if it were their last, they will be happy, but their worries will also increase, but it has nothing to do with being free and unrestrained.

After the two of them had dinner, they waited on Mrs. Yu to rest again.Wu Zonglun just lay on the bed and sighed: "Is there anything else you can't tell me?"

Liu Hai lowered his head and tugged at the corner of his clothes: "I went to the pawnshop today to redeem your green jade hairpin."

Wu Zonglun suddenly understood everything.At the beginning, he was pawning a death pawn, and he was afraid that Liu Hai would see the pawn ticket and wanted to redeem it, but judging by his expression, he probably couldn't redeem it.

Wu Zonglun changed his tone with a relaxed tone: "You haven't redeemed it, have you? It's hard to redeem it after death, Hai'er, don't take it to heart."

Liu Haidao: "When you come back from the capital, the only thing you have on you is this hairpin. It must be very important to you, right? I went to the pawnshop today, but the shopkeeper said that the hairpin has been bought away. I... ...If only I could redeem it sooner..."

Wu Zonglun yawned and said: "It's just an object, Haier, don't take it too seriously. When the old man gave me the jade hairpin, he once said that the meaning of this object is to hope that I can show my ambition with jade and be a modest gentleman. Trapped by foreign objects." He jumped out of bed, held Liu Hai's hand and said, "It means that the most important thing is to be happy and at ease when you go to which mountain to sing which song. Liu Hai, you are with me, just remember to be happy That's fine, don't think about anything else, okay?"

Liu Hai nodded, but tears still fell: "But... I feel very sorry for you, Brother Wu..."

Wu Zonglun said with a smile: "If there is a destiny, we will naturally meet again, so don't worry about it."

be accused

ten,

More than two months passed, and both of them slowly put this matter behind their heads.

Now that the seasons are changing between summer and autumn, Yu's cough and asthma symptoms have been significantly relieved, and she is not as uncomfortable as in previous years. She also knows in her heart that this is due to Wu Zonglun, and she is more kind to him.

The couple had a fruitful summer too.Under the care of the accountant of Yuhang, Wu Zonglun found a lot of copying errands. This job is easier than doing coolies, and relatively earns more, but it takes a lot of time and energy. In order not to take up the time of lingering with Liu Hai at night, he They all went to the fish store early to copy.

In this way, five coins of silver were saved.

Including some remnants from last time's retouching fee, I got a total of three, two or five dollars.

Liu Hai has always lived a life without any spare money. He was very happy to see the money, but he didn't know where to put it or how to use it.

Wu Zonglun said: "Let's keep it with mother for safekeeping, she can feel more at ease with the money."

Liu Hai also thought it was a good idea.

A few days later, the two were lying on the bed lingering. After the rain cleared and the clouds cleared, both were a little sleepy but couldn't fall asleep.Wu Zonglun suddenly said seriously: "Hai'er, mother called me over today and taught me a lesson."

Liu Hai sat up nervously: "What did she say again? Brother Ang, don't take it to heart."

Wu Zonglun said: "She said that she has some money left now, and she wants to marry you a wife."

Liu Hai said anxiously: "I won't marry!"

Wu Zonglun sighed: "She said that the purpose of marrying a daughter-in-law this time is to carry on your family line, so don't take it to heart. She also specially found a silly girl from Aunt Ma Hua, and she said that she would come to the door in a few days."

Liu Hai was stunned for a while, and was about to get out of bed after putting on his clothes.Wu Zonglun hurriedly stopped him: "Don't go! Are you really not tempted? If I walk ahead of you, there will be no one to die for you in the future without children."

These are Yu Shi's original words. In fact, Wu Zonglun had already convinced Yu Shi at that time.But he felt a little guilty in his heart. How could he, a scholar, not know the truth that no future is better?If he hadn't provoked Liu Hai, Liu Hai might have grown up with children now, and his life would be more stable.

But I don't know if Liu Hai will regret it because he has no descendants?Even... Regret because you know yourself?

Liu Hai's eyes widened: "One day, if you walk ahead of me, I'll finish our funerals and go with you."

Wu Zonglun said: "What should I do when I am old and have no one to rely on?"

Liu Hai bowed his head: "I've thought about it a long time ago. When the pirates broke out, many people died in the village, and there are also a few orphans that no one asks now. We can find someone who is destined to stay as an adopted son. Black skin is not bad. , people are very simple and honest, and Goudan and Erya are both clever, but we have to wait until we are able to support our children."

Wu Zonglun now knows why Liu Hai's children surrounded him as soon as he entered the village. One is that he has a good heart and sends food to those who are helpless.Another one, I'm afraid that even these children want to be picked by Liu Hai to be his adopted son...

Seeing that he was silent, Liu Hai said urgently: "Brother Wu, my mother has big ideas, I have to persuade her now, or it will be too late when she really brings him home."

Wu Zonglun hurriedly said: "I've already persuaded you, and Mother didn't say anything more. In fact, I said this just now because I was afraid that you would regret it in the future. Liu Hai, you have to think clearly, you won't regret taking the medicine then."

Liu Hai was so angry that he threw the pillow over: "You...that's how you miss me!"

He was too angry to say anything, and ran outside the house to sulk.

For the first time, Wu Zonglun did not chase after him to comfort him.

After staying up in the middle of the night, Liu Hai felt sad, curled up and planned to spend the night on the ground, Wu Zonglun came over and called Liu Hai into the room to sleep.

Liu Hai was so angry that his eyes and nose were red: "Didn't you tell me to think it through? I have already thought it through. Let me ask you, what are you going to do if I really bring someone home?!"

Wu Zonglun paused: "Then I will move the place for you."

Liu Hai couldn't help crying: "Wu Zonglun! You bully!"

Wu Zonglun's eyes were also red: "I thought it over just now, if you want a child... I can't tolerate you having someone else, then I will move the place for you until you walk...you will never be able to find it." to the place to go.”

Liu Hai sniffed and rubbed his eyes: "Okay, I have the same heart for you! Wu Zonglun, listen carefully: I don't want any children in my life, and I will never like anyone else except you. You can't be so suspicious of me From now on, whenever my mother or anyone wants to persuade me to get married, you can help me refuse."

Seeing his miserable appearance, Wu Zonglun stepped forward to help him wipe his eyes: "Me too. If someone persuades me, you can directly refuse for me."

Liu Hai said angrily: "You just deliberately bullied me, didn't you?! You clearly know my heart, but you like to see me cry, so you insist on saying those sad things
