Chapter 44 Shocked
The people from Lian Kuiban were shocked by Du He again.
But the response this time was not as big as Du He disappeared last time.
If a person does something shocking, everyone will react fiercely, but if he often does something shocking, everyone will get used to it.
Du He brought back a little girl.
Looking at how he was at most thirteen or fourteen years old, he held Du He's hand tightly and looked at the people around him with a vigilant look, like a little child bride.
Everyone smiled and shook Du He's eyes, but Du He turned a deaf ear and formally asked to meet Jiang Zhongye with Nanfeng.
Jiang Ling was not here, and Jiang Zhongye was not very satisfied with the little girl with cold eyes.
Everyone knows the origin of Nanfeng. Although Jiang Zhongye wants to find a servant like a little sister for his daughter, Nanfeng is not suitable. She is too complicated and Jiang Ling is too simple. Jiang Zhongye hopes that his daughter can always be so innocent and simple, rather than losing her kindness to the world early like Nanfeng.
"Ahe, Liankui class is a male class, and there is no special place for women. Her age is not suitable for practicing qigong from an apprentice..."
Jiang Zhongye thought about the words, not wanting Du He to think that he was deliberately suppressing him.
After the last incident, Du He saw these things openly, and Jiang Zhongye was even more careful and sensitive, for fear that Du He would run again... The Du sister-in-law's eyes were really hard to resist.
Du He did not do anything more to bother about this matter, and simply said: "Master, I didn't ask her to be a disciple. I want to hire her as my servant, so I came to tell you that I will be responsible for all her expenses. I also rented an empty room from the team when I live, but I just hope that the master can allow her to stay in the team."
"You want to hire someone?! Ah, how much do you have to rent a house and hire her if you have two and a half dollars a month?"
Jiang Zhongye asked incredible questions as if he had heard something incredible.
Du He said without hesitation: "I will not withdraw the two and a half dollars of macabre wages in the future. They will use them to rent a house. I want the suite with a shower room. As for the employment cost, I will write to my mother for help."
Jiang Zhongye frowned. Du He, who was more difficult to deal with after being hidden by his current sharp edge, had no way out and finally nodded.
Du He's approach is more like the self-indulgence of a rich child who cannot bear the pain, but Jiang Zhongye, who knows Du He's personality, feels something different.
Compared to when he first came to Liankuiban, Du He seemed to be more confident, so confident that Jiang Zhongye was uneasy.
Why can a young man who is a newcomer and arrogant person who can take all his wages to enjoy without leaving any way out for himself?
After Du He left, Jiang Zhongye thought about it but still couldn't figure it out.
Jiang Ling came back late that night and had no interest in the movements in the team. He excitedly took a bouquet of flowers in the house to arrange flowers.
It is rare to find flowers in winter. In order to please the beauty, Captain He tried his best to get a large bouquet of daisies, which made Jiang Ling's whole heart immersed in touch, and he had no time to care about anything else.
Nanfeng, who had been crying, tidying up the more comfortable and secret inner room in Du He and letting her live, finally couldn't help it, and burst into Du He's arms with a "wow" cry and rushed into Du He's arms.
Du He tried several times before gently patting Nanfeng's back, comforting him for a long time before he placed Nanfengping, who was crying and asleep, on the bed, and dealt with him on the hard board outside for a night.
Du He is the only child, which was very rare in the 1930s. He has watched the vast group of other people's brothers and sisters since he was a child, but he was the only one who took him. He has always envied those children with younger brothers and sisters.
Now Nanfeng has satisfied all Du He's fantasy about his sister, Du He feels that he may have to work harder to make money.
Nanfeng is well-behaved, smart, sensible and caring, but he is too thin. Du He dared not shoot her hard, for fear that Nanfeng would be beaten by him if he accidentally tried to use force.
After the boy became his brother, his growth was a momentary matter. Du He was still a little hesitant, but he settled down almost when he saw Nanfeng still holding his fingers tightly after he fell asleep.
It's just a choice, it doesn't hurt the law, and there is still money to take care of Nanfeng. What's wrong with it?
Early the next morning, Du He took Nanfeng out.
He told the people in the team that he was going out to help Nanfeng buy daily necessities, but in fact Du He changed his steps and took Nanfeng to the women's bathhouse and bought a few clothes for Nanfeng. The originally weak girl transformed into a graceful little beauty.
Afterwards, Du He explained to Nanfeng a few words and took her to the Wansui Pavilion.
At the beginning, the boy at the entrance of the Wansui Pavilion was reluctant to let him in, but Du He casually said Takahashi Takahashi's name and immediately received the treatment of a VIP. Not only was he warmly welcomed into the private room, but after a short while, he was respectfully invited to the backyard of the Wansui Pavilion by Fujiwara who came in person.
The Japanese-style courtyard exudes a sense of silence, but Du He turned around a corridor, but was robbed of all his attention by the scene in front of him.
In the courtyard covered with white stones, a girl in a kimono is dancing to the music.
The music seems to be played by shakuhachi in Japan, but the song is a traditional Chinese folk song. The dance dance of a girl in kimono is full of tenderness and vitality. Du He stood there and watched it for a long time before he woke up at the end of the song.
"good!"
Du He shouted loudly, applauding the dance girl, her eyes full of admiration.
Du He, who has been used to seeing Swan Lake, discovered for the first time that the beauty of dance can be so elegant and implicit, and full of vitality. This is a completely different performance mode from foreign dances, but it is still wonderful.
Takahashi's eyes lit up and stood up. The shakuhashi in his hand was casually placed aside. The girl in the kimono turned around and glared at him with a angrily anger, quickly put on wooden clogs, and stood behind Takahashi's side.
"Little brother, you finally come. Over the past period of time, I have understood what it means to be eager to see and seek talented people!"
Takahashi came over with a smile, hugged Du He happily, patted Du He on the shoulder, frowned and asked, "Why have you lost so much? Those soldiers tortured you?"
Du He reacted instantly and asked in surprise: "How do you know about my fight with the soldiers?"
"Hmph, I'm still behaved when I get a cheap one. My father made many calls late at night for you. I don't know how many favors I've paid for, so I've saved you!"
The girl behind Takahashi Takahashi muttered angrily, Du He heard it, but Takahashi Takahashi rebuked unhappily: "Haiyu, stop the sound!"
Du He waved his hand and asked seriously: "Mr. Takahashi, is this Miss Haiyu's true words?"
Takahashi grinned awkwardly and sighed.
"A gentleman does not take credit for me. I help you without authorization. I also said that I would claim to be self-proclaimed, but I did not do it well. I hope my brother will not be surprised."
