The host is a slime [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 44 Fiance Day 4
The house that the Ou family bought in Qingshui Town was not big, just a courtyard with two entrances and two exits. Although the poor boy was the son-in-law of a wealthy businessman, neither of the couple were extravagant people, let alone Qingshui Town. If the place is too big, it will be conspicuous if it is built too much, so the original district father built a yard here with his first income from doing business.
Although it is said that the couple will live here for the elderly when they are old, but compared with the ordinary ones that add a barrier wall between the south gables of the east and west wing rooms, divide the courtyard into two layers inside and outside, and set up two doors at the close of the barrier wall for entry and exit. On the basis of the pattern of two entrances and two exits, Qu's father also added more corridors and side rooms.
In this way, the courtyard, which was originally only 30 or 22 meters wide from east to west and 30 meters deep from north to south, was enlarged to [-] meters wide from east to west and more than [-] meters deep from north to south. Together they form the circular courtyard of the inner courtyard.
It's just that neither of them expected that in just over ten years, only Ou Mu and an old butler remained in the Ou family.
But for Ohm, this house doesn’t give him a big feeling—at the beginning, he and Atum didn’t travel on the grasslands all the time, and occasionally they would occupy a place with lush water and grass to settle for a day or two. In [-], they used to occupy the largest area of nearly a thousand square kilometers. Now this "site" of several hundred meters really cannot make him sigh "so big".
The old butler has also seen the situation of the Ou family in its heyday. To be honest, this courtyard with two entrances and two exits was not qualified as a temporary place for the main family in the past.
But the world is impermanent, and now there are no maids and servants. They want to clean the three main rooms, four side rooms and seven north rooms. The barrier wall separating the inner and outer courtyards, the two gates with four-column hanging flower gates...
It's not that they never thought of asking someone to help, but they only have more than 2000 taels of silver in their hands. The old housekeeper feels that it is not enough for the young master to marry a wife and have children to regain the family business when he grows up, so he is concerned about the matter of asking someone to clean it. , He gritted his teeth and didn't relax - but he just entered the yard twice, the old guy still has time and strength!
Although the old butler is now a servant and Ohm is the master, Ohm will not just watch the old man hunched over and trembling so busy that he can't even stand up straight, so he rolled up his sleeves and ignored the old butler while shaking his hands and saying No way, no way" pleading, and started cleaning neatly.
So when Tu Zongye came to the door, Ohm was wearing a blue turban on his head and a gray short brown cotton coat, only showing a white and tender cheek and a pair of big black eyes The tails of his eyes were raised slightly, and his red lips and white teeth made him look like a small lotus root just pulled out of the mud. It was so tender that one wanted to take a bite, to see if the juice would come out with a "click".
As a slime, Ohm didn't simulate the human form before, and he didn't know what he would look like after becoming a human.But just looking at this eye is really similar to his original caracal eyes. If it weren't for the obvious browbones, big and long eyes, and high nose bridge, these boys' characteristics are more obvious, it would really make people feel like a little girl.
In lady's words, even if it is to experience the world, some characteristics of the identity of the host and the experience will overlap, so that it will be more immersive.
※※※
Ohm still has an impression of Tu Zongye. After all, he only met yesterday, and the other person's appearance and demeanor are outstanding and unforgettable.
It's just that yesterday he was still thinking about the old housekeeper at home, so he only said a few words to him casually, and left quickly without even asking for compensation for the little pot.
Of course, what Ohm doesn't want to admit is that the eyes of the two brothers of the Tu family remind him of Atum when he was a child, and the look of the older one reminds him of Atum as an adult... Ohm is a little suspicious of himself Is it too memorable for Atum, so I have to lean on the big white lion when I see an outstanding one.
However, no matter how unforgettable, Ohm also believes that the emotions of the previous world should not be brought to the next world—although it is only twenty years old, he has been with the big white lion all his life, and he is already very satisfied.
So Ohm didn't want to get too involved with the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party would come to the door the next day as soon as he made up his mind.
Looking at the wheelchair under Tu Zongye, because of the reason of this era, he still needs his book boy to help push it behind, Ohm's eyes froze, and he wanted to support it subconsciously: "Why are you here?" Stretching out my hand, I noticed that I was dusting with a feather duster just now, and my fingers were a little dirty, I was really embarrassed.Ohm belatedly withdrew his hand, but he was caught by Tu Zongye, and a pair of black pupils looked at him fixedly: "Is Xiaomu not welcoming me?"
Wow, who is your name Xiaomu... But he looks disabled and weak, but his palms are warm... A few thoughts ran through Ohm's mind, and when he heard Tu Zongye's words, he shook his head and said: "It's not welcome, it's just that it's not convenient for you..." He said, and wanted to pull his hand back, but fortunately, the other party didn't intend to hold it, so he let go of it.But I don't know if it's Ohm's illusion, I always feel that the other party seems to pinch his fingers twice?
"Master? Is anyone here?" A slightly old voice came from the door, and the old butler, who was dressed similarly to Ohm, hurried out to check the situation when he saw that Ohm hadn't returned for a long time.Then he happened to meet Tu Zongye's eyes: "You are..." He felt that the other party was kind, but he couldn't remember it after a while.
But Tu Zongye recognized him right away—after all, he had done a survey before this: "This is Uncle Qu, right? I'm a boy from the Tu family. Her name was once called 'Rui Ying'."
Ohm: Oh?
However, after the old butler was slightly stunned, his eyes widened suddenly, and his gray beard trembled because of the sudden mood swing: "Rui, Miss Rui Ying? You, you are..." The old butler was originally from the home of Qu Mu's mother. The housekeeper, so she also knew about the friends of Ou Mu's mother who used to be in her boudoir.
The old housekeeper stammered, and didn't know how to express himself for a while, but Tu Zongye seemed to understand the other party's unfinished meaning, and the smile on his face became more and more sincere: "Looking at your reaction, I'm not mistaken." .”
"Hey, you can't say 'you' ah 'you'. Master Tu, you can just call me district steward." The old steward was a little flattered. In his opinion, the other party was Tu Shilang's son, and he could treat him well. An old servant's attitude is so polite, he seems to see the girl who is clearly the daughter of a family but has no arrogance of a young lady, and there is a hint of tears in the cloudy eyes for a moment-this person is very old Yes, I can't help but recall some memories.
※※※
Because there are visitors, Ohm can't wear a cleaning outfit anymore, but when he changed into a visitor's clothes and came out, he found that Tu Zongye and the old housekeeper had already chatted enthusiastically?
"In fact, it shouldn't be so late. It's just that I encountered some troubles here. I thought that if I didn't solve them, I was afraid that Xiaomu's side would be involved at that time, so I delayed a lot of time. In the end, I found out about the Ou family's problems. When I heard the news, and... oh, fortunately, we met in time, one after the other, it seems that it is really destined by heaven." The old housekeeper has completely followed the rhythm of the other party: "Isn't this Young Master Tu, it was your fault that you were at the Ou family back then, alas, it doesn’t matter if you don’t mention the past, I’m grateful that you can come here without worrying about your original affection. But, what you said one after the other...?”
Tu Zongye smiled, and Ah Quan at the side thought that I finally had a chance to speak, so he quickly explained yesterday's incident of robbery in a concise and concise manner without losing focus.
It should be said that he is indeed the bookboy next to Tu Zongye, among other things, this talking ability is really much higher than that of ordinary servants.
Originally, the old housekeeper was grateful that he and the young master still had old friends visiting when he and the young master were so down and out, but when he heard that this kind of life-saving kindness had happened, he was even more moved to tears: "So there is still this kindness! This is really, this I really don't know how to thank you..."
Ohm was also surprised: "Those bodyguards belong to you?" The bandits behind were still brought to the Yamen by the group of bodyguards, thinking about the scene at that time, "Were you in that carriage at that time?"
Seeing that Ohm immediately grasped the point that Tu Zongye wanted to ignore, he was afraid that the other party would misunderstand him—although he had thought of not being in touch with each other until the meeting yesterday—he quickly explained: "At that time, Zongqin was in In the carriage, I was worried that he was accidentally injured, and in my current situation..." He looked at his immobile legs in a little disappointment.
Ah Quan also showed a sad face behind him.
Ohm and the old butler were immediately taken away by him, thinking that he had touched each other's pain: "Sorry." He found out that the other party's leg was sick when he first met yesterday, but at that time they were just strangers who had met once. People, so I didn't take it to heart. Now that I know that they have so much fate, I can't help but care.
I don't know if his slime's talent skills can be used now. If the other party only hurts the flesh, maybe...
Tu Zongye smiled calmly: "You don't need to apologize to me."
Ohm was still a little embarrassed, so he changed the subject a little bluntly: "By the way, why didn't Tu Zongqin come today?"
Tu Zongye did not intend to continue to sell miserably, but followed his words: "He slipped out to play halfway yesterday, and today he will be fined to double his homework. And...today is to talk about me and you, he There is no need for a child."
Ohm saw that the other party looked at him as if they were peach blossom petals blooming beside the road in spring, and his heart beat faster for some reason: "What about me and you?"
The old butler at the side also looked over with doubts.
Tu Zongye took out a warm and translucent fish jade pendant from his arms: "I don't know if you still have this, Xiao Mu?"
"This?" Ohm didn't know why, but his body had already reacted first, and pulled out a thin rope from his neck, on which was hanging the same jade pendant, "There are two?"
"Xiao Mu, come here." Tu Zongye said affectionately.
Tu Zongye himself is tall, even if he is sitting, he is not much shorter than Ohm who is standing. He put the fish jade pendant in his hand and the jade pendant from Ohm's neck together - the texture is the same as that in Tu Zongye's hand The fish jade pendant is exactly the same, the only difference is that the direction of the fish mouth and fish tail are reversed.But it is precisely because of this that these two jade pendants in opposite directions can just merge into a perfect ring.
"Ah...!" Seeing this scene, the old housekeeper suddenly recalled the memory deep in his mind, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "This, this is not the beginning—!"
Ohm subconsciously clenched the jade pendant in his hand. From the information, he remembered that the jade pendant had been hung around his neck since he was a child: "What was it back then?"
Tu Zongye put the combined jade pendant into Ohm's hand, and the jade pendant that was warmed by his palm still had a slight warmth: "This is our engagement token."
Ohm: "...huh?"
Although it is said that the couple will live here for the elderly when they are old, but compared with the ordinary ones that add a barrier wall between the south gables of the east and west wing rooms, divide the courtyard into two layers inside and outside, and set up two doors at the close of the barrier wall for entry and exit.
