Li Daitao

"Uncle Meng." Liang Xiao waited until evening, saw Meng Zhang's figure appearing at the intersection, and rushed forward from afar.

But he didn't want to have another strange child in the carriage.Meng Zhang got out of the car first, but he didn't wait for Meng Zhang to reach out to hug him, and he was about to jump down by holding on to the shaft of the car.

Ordinary people's carriages are naturally not too tall, but compared to him, he is even smaller, and if he didn't check it for a while, he would fall into a somersault.It happened to bump into Liang Xiao who happened to come to the side.

The one who was pressed down and made a meat pad didn't make a sound, but the one who hit someone burst into tears and burst into tears.

"I met a group of robbers in the middle of the road, and this child was rescued at that time. He refused to go into the city with others, so he had to be brought back first."

Liang Xiao was very sensible, he didn't care about being hurt by him, he hugged this child who looked younger than him and coaxed him, but Meng Zhang said this to the person who came after him.

"I haven't heard of any gangsters nearby in these years." Hearing the words, the visitor glanced at the child twice. What's the matter, he didn't wear gold or silver on his body, not even a piece of the iconic jade pendant, but the clothes on his body were made of extremely high-quality materials, obviously he came from a wealthy family.He saw it in his eyes, but his expression was a little flat, and his tone was neither happy nor sad. "You should send him to the government first, his family must be in a hurry."

It's not that I want to see you first.Meng Zhang said in his heart, but the words only lingered in his heart, and he couldn't say a word in front of Xiao Shu.After recovering his surname, Qin Shu has become more and more reticent in recent years.The two of them were silent for a while, but they were still the clever child. Seeing this situation, he immediately stopped crying and said, "My family is still far behind. I ran ahead to play first. Now send me into the city." I can't find my family members either. I'll just stay at my uncle's house for one night." It was a proper Northern Jin official dialect.

After he talked for a long time, Meng Zhang finally found an opportunity to interject: "I have already asked shopkeeper Zhang and the others to report to the government, and the carriage is also for sending him off."

Qin Shu nodded and said nothing else, but found that someone was holding his feet, and when he looked down, it turned out that the child was very familiar and was trying to climb on top of him. Qin Shu looked down and looked at him. , stretched out his hand towards him, and it was written all over his face——you hug me.

Qin Shu was stunned by him for a moment, and before he had time to think about it, he hugged him in a daze.

"Uncle." The little guy was obviously very satisfied, rubbing his tear-stained face on his shoulder, and said to Qin Shu in a coquettish voice: "My name is Xiao Ji, Ji after the rain. "As he spoke, he was afraid that Qin Shu would not understand, so he insisted on holding Qin Shu's hand, and using his fleshy little fingers to write strokes in the palm of his hand for Qin Shu to read.

He is a head shorter than Liang Xiao, but he is stronger than Liang Xiao, and his body is full of flesh. Meng Zhang also hugged him, knowing that this child is really heavy. Seeing Qin Shu holding him with one hand, It was obviously a little difficult, and he wanted to take him over. The little guy who called himself Xu Ji was not happy, so he twisted his body, hugged Qin Shu and refused to let him go.Although Qin Shu didn't like to talk and laugh, Xu Ji obviously liked this uncle whom he met for the first time and was very indifferent, more than Meng Zhang, the benefactor who saved him.

Seeing this, Meng Zhang had no choice but to take Liang Xiao with one hand, and walked back with the carriage.After talking a few words about this business trip, he came to the door of the house.

Going to the southwest from here, although it is a barren land, it is rich in high-quality jade, but the road is difficult. Few merchants take this road, but Qin Shu chose this road. After several years of stumbles, two years In front of the next store, Meng Zhang volunteered to pick out the purchase matter, and Qin Shu only concentrated on matters such as jade selection and carving.He was originally a determined character, if he focused on a certain matter, he would be able to go head-on. Within a few years, his actions were somewhat majestic, and he had gained a reputation in the industry.

Even though he was reticent and seldom smiled, he was rarely calm.Meng Zhang was content with being able to accompany him silently, and even vaguely hoped that this kind of life would last forever. They lived in a yard on the outskirts of the county town.There are several home-cooked dishes on the small kitchen table.There was one more person out of nowhere, so another pair of bowls and chopsticks were added.

Xu Ji looked at Jiaogui, but he was not picky at this time, and ate all the food given to him.After the meal, he boiled hot water and took a bath for him, and found a pair of Liang Xiao's clean clothes for him to put on.The little guy seems to have finally settled down, with a small mouth, very eloquent.Originally, there were three people in this family, but he didn't talk as much as him alone.Speaking of his family is from the capital city, how old is he this year, he is already literate, how many gentlemen he has visited, what books he has read, what kind of business is he doing at home, it just so happens that his family is coming here to visit friends, he slipped out first when he was mischievous, etc. Said angrily.

Liang Xiao's eight-year-old child didn't feel anything, but the two adults always felt that there was something unnatural. The child was tall, and with his small mouth full of tongues, his speech seemed to be drafted in advance. And there is no flaw, but it is completely impossible to see that he is only over five years old.Moreover, there was no wild crying like an ordinary child after a disaster, and he was as calm as playing.

But it is also because he is too young, and he can't think of going anywhere else. He only thinks that he is bold by nature, and then he is spoiled by his family, so he becomes the master who knows nothing about the sky and the earth.

But when he was still afraid, he cleaned up a vacant room for him to stay overnight temporarily at night, but he hugged the pillow and wanted to pester Qin Shu desperately, holding his little head pitifully and saying: "Uncle, I am afraid of the dark alone. Seeing that Qin Shu's expression was a little loose, without waiting for others to speak, he sneaked in from Qin Shu's side very cleverly, took off his shoes and socks, and climbed onto the bed.

Qin Shu watched him put his pillow inside, rolled around the quilt a few times, rubbed it back and forth on the pillow twice happily, then stretched his waist and yawned, showing a very intoxicated expression - completely pretending to be in Like his own home.

Seeing where Qin Shu was still standing, he stretched out his hand to beckon: "Uncle, I don't take up any space at all. You see, the two of us can sleep well." He shrank back in the bed while talking Said, and looked at Qin Shu with a puzzled face.

Qin Shu had never seen such a familiar and thick-skinned guy, and the other party was just a child, so he really couldn't handle him.I had no choice but to walk over slowly, covered him with the quilt, and said softly, "Go to sleep."

Xu Ji turned over, hugged one of his arms, and said, "Uncle, tell me a story! Tell me a story, and I'll go to bed obediently."

The corner of Qin Shu's mouth twitched slightly, and finally ignored his sudden request, paused, and pulled his hand out.He said softly: "I still have something to do, go to sleep." After saying that, he ignored Xu Ji's puffy face and went to the outside room.When he turned back, Xu Ji had already fallen asleep, but his face was still bulging.
