527. So poor
At this moment, Qin Lu's eyes were tightly locked on the two children in the front.
One big and one small, wearing clothes of the same material. Except for some slight differences in the details of the clothes, the styles are not much different.
Qin Lu's eyes followed the movements of the children, never leaving even half an inch from the youngest child.
Yesterday, I couldn't see clearly from a distance, I could only vaguely see the outline, and it just felt like it.
Now that the child was only a dozen steps away from him, Qin Lu's eyes turned red involuntarily when he saw a face that was almost exactly the same as his sister's.
When I think about the fact that my sister, whom I have loved so much since I was a child, is no longer alive after just two decades, I feel even more sad and my heart is as sharp as a knife.
If he had known this earlier, he would not have allowed his sister to enter the palace even if he was disobedient. At worst, he would have stayed in Bingzhou for the rest of his life and not returned to Shengjing.
Even the emperor can't do anything about the generals who are not willing to accept their orders.
It's a pity that there is no if.
Bian Qiong also opened her eyes wide, fixed her eyes on the youngest child, and looked at the general in surprise.
No wonder the general was so sure after just one glance.
He looked so similar, if he wasn't the general's child, he really wouldn't believe it.
The two of them looked at Kangkang so unabashedly that An An noticed almost immediately and instinctively blocked Kangkang's body.
They shouldn't be bad people who could get into his house, but they looked at Kangkang very strangely. They seemed excited but a little depressed, especially one of them had red eyes.
An An couldn't help but look at these eyes a few more times, her eyes moved, and then she took her brother's hand and walked faster.
This... person has an inexplicable familiarity in his appearance, especially his eyes. For some reason, he has a very bad feeling.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Kangkang glanced at the two people under the tree curiously, and followed his brother almost half-running with his short legs.
"It's nothing, brother is hungry."
As soon as he heard that he was hungry, Kangkang's eyes suddenly changed, and he even took the initiative to pull his brother to speed up a bit.
"Brother, I'm hungry too. Let's hurry up."
"Okay." As he ran, An An turned around and glanced at the two people behind him who didn't look away, and entered the main courtyard with his younger brother.
The other children also saw Qin and Lu. Although they were curious as to why they were at the door, they nodded politely and caught up with their brothers.
These children...are the children of the Salesian Home.
The two of them followed.
When I arrived at the main courtyard, I saw a dozen children surrounding Gu Dong's house, and a big black dog with its tail licking happily, and a familiar little shadow lying on its body.
As they entered, the big black dog looked at them excitedly.
He actually saw the warning in a dog's eyes, the half-bared fangs telling them that they would be rude if they approached it again.
"Dahei, be good, you are a guest." Kangkang was closest to Dahei and was the first to notice that something was wrong with Dahei. He hugged Dahei without changing his movements and said softly.
"Wow..." Dahei barked at the little master who hugged him as a response, then looked at the master and then at the two people standing at the door of the main courtyard, as if asking, until the master nodded, Dahei
He glared threateningly again before calming down and letting his little master do whatever he wanted...
What a smart black dog, Qin Lu and Bian Qiong both sighed at the same time.
"Okay, kids, quickly put your things away and clean up after yourself. It's time to start dinner." Gulan glanced at the two people at the door, clapped his hands at the children and said.
Seeing that the children were all going to wash up, Gu Lan walked towards Qin Lu.
"Mr. Qin, if you don't mind, let's have dinner together for a while. Can we talk about the matter after dinner?"
Although it was a discussion, Gu Dongjia's tone told him that there was no room for rejection. Although his eyes were light, they were full of oppression.
Qin Lu was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
After guarding the border for so many years, countless people died under his hands, which made him feel oppressed. This seemingly weak Gu Dongjia was indeed no ordinary person.
He wanted to have his children eat together.
"This is such a nuisance to Gu Dong's family." Qin Lu said with a smile.
"You're welcome." Gu Lan nodded lightly, then looked at the steward who was standing by, "Steward, take the young master to clean his hands."
"Sir, please..."
Butler Jin quickly led the way.
At the same time, the food in the dining room has been placed neatly.
The children who had washed their hands couldn't wait to enter the dining room. When they saw the two separate tables, they just stopped for a moment and consciously sat at the outermost table.
Thinking of that strange uncle, An An, who originally wanted to sit with her father, decisively took her brother and brothers and sisters to sit together.
Although there were many children, the table was specially designed, so it didn't seem crowded even with more than a dozen children sitting together.
This was what Qin Lu and Bianqiong saw when they came in with Gu Dong's family. Children of all sizes were sitting at the table in an orderly manner, one big and one small, waiting.
The moment they came in, they all stood up, and a dozen pairs of curious eyes looked at them.
Kangkang was the liveliest and most restless one. He slid down from the couch and ran to his father's side.
"Dad, who are they?" The little guy pointed at Qin and Lu.
"Kangkang, have you forgotten again?" Gu Lan looked at his son's hand.
"Ah... I'm sorry." Kangkang immediately apologized to the two strangers when he realized he was wrong.
"Why did you say sorry?"
Listening to the fat little guy saying sorry to himself in a soft and clear childish voice, and looking at his sister's identical eyes, Qin Lu's heart softened at that moment.
How can I be willing to let the little guy say sorry to him?
Besides, where is the apology?
Kangkang glanced at his father and saw that he was not angry, so he spoke.
"Kangkang pointed his finger at people and ignored them. Kangkang just forgot again, so I'm sorry." When he said this, there was a little annoyance in the little man's eyes.
"It's okay. You're still young, so it's normal to not remember."
Taking a deep look at Gu Dongjia, this child was well taught.
Qin Lu knelt down and looked at Kang Kang at eye level, trying hard to maintain his excitement. Despite this, there was still an unavoidable tremor in his voice.
"Kangkang is not young. Daddy said that Kangkang is already a little adult. Kangkang can help daddy solve his worries. But I still have to thank you... Uncle, I don't blame you."
After saying the word "uncle", Kangkang subconsciously raised his head and looked at his father. When he saw that his father did not correct him, he smiled with satisfaction.
"Your...name is Kangkang?" Qin Lu sniffed his sour nose and said hoarsely.
"Yeah" Kangkang nodded.
I looked at the strange uncle in front of me strangely. He had already said his name was Kangkang many times, but he still couldn't remember it.
There must be something wrong with the uncle's brain, otherwise why would he not be able to remember something so simple? Thinking of this, Kangkang couldn't help but look at the strange uncle sympathetically.
Alas! I have a bad mind and am so pitiful!
Thinking of this, Kangkang patted the unfamiliar uncle on his arm and comforted him: "Uncle, don't be sad, Kangkang won't tell others."
Then he saw Qin Lu's excited eyes getting redder. He didn't expect his nephew to be so sensitive and kind at such a young age, and he even comforted him.
Qin Lu had subconsciously ignored this very strange saying that he would not tell others.
