Men and women eating in the courtyard

Chapter 510 An immature idea

"Sister~wuwu"

"Jiaojiao~"

Seeing that the cruel man was gone, the two girls hugged each other and cried again.

Both of them hated each other in their hearts: they hated their master for being cruel, they hated their senior brother for being ruthless, and they hated themselves for being unlucky.

When they were tired from crying, they returned to the fire room. Looking at the dark dishes and the mushy rice, they felt that life was meaningless.

Perhaps the two have lived and studied together since childhood, and their relationship is closer than that of biological sisters.

The two looked at each other in silence, looking at each other like this, and they could see what the other was thinking.

Tong Huimei stretched out her hand to wipe Jin Jiaojiao's tears, then sniffed resolutely and put back her own tears.

"Sister, how will we live in the future?"

"I don't know either"

Tong Huimei looked at Jin Jiaojiao and said bitterly: "I can't carry it on my shoulders, and I can't lift it with my hands. You and I can only sing, how can we eat?"

In the past, apprentices like them could make money wherever they worked.

But this is not the past. Opera singers must have a staff and a unit.

If you want to go out and set up a stage to sing in an opera, that's not possible. It's not allowed now.

They did go out to perform with Master, but it was all in the name of Master, so that was okay.

Because their master was famous, the theater also gave them face, and the troupe gave the money to the master, so they were considered to be working for the master.

But now that the master is gone, or secretly, who will invite them?

Besides, you have to have someone to sing with, and I’ve never heard of a two-person troupe.

Thinking about it this way, the two of them are useless people.

Tong Huimei took Jin Jiaojiao's hand, and no longer thought about eating, she walked out swaying, stumbling, and miserable.

They took the hemp rope that Master and the others had left from packing their luggage from the railing. They walked back to the kitchen with pale faces, stepped on the kitchen stools and threw the hemp rope onto the beam.

The firehouse at this time had no roof, and the beams and fortresses could be seen directly.

So the two of them could throw the rope up to the beam, and there was a possibility of hanging themselves.

The two sisters looked at each other with tears in their eyes, stepped on the stool and got on the noose together.

They had thought about it, they came together and they left together.

I've had enough of these days of fear. If I can't eat well or sleep well, I'm afraid that the new landlord will come.

Today the wait finally came, but the ultimatum really came.

He is just a drifter in the world, a rootless duckweed, and just walks away.

——

Li Xuewu drove the car back. He was about to reach the street. He was thinking that something was wrong. With his eyes fixed, he turned the steering wheel fiercely and drove back.

There were many people on the street at this time, and he couldn't drive faster, so he could only hide and drive slowly.

When I got to the gate, I didn't turn off the engine. I jumped out of the car and rushed to the courtyard. When I entered the courtyard, I saw it was quiet, and I thought it was bad.

He looked at the kitchen door again, but it was tightly closed. He ran over and kicked it open, only to see two people hanging on the rope in panic.

"What the hell!"

Gritting his teeth, Li Xuewu took out his pistol and fired two shots at the two ropes on the beam.

As the gunfire rang out, the two people hanging by the hemp rope fell to the ground one after another and fell on the fallen stool, letting out a cry of pain.

Li Xuewu breathed heavily, stared at the two of them and cursed: "I didn't mess with you, did you? Are you trying to get away with me?"

The two of them didn't have time to respond to Li Xuewu at the moment. They were lying on the ground, covering their chins with their hands and coughing.

Li Xuewu walked over and kicked the two of them away with his feet. Seeing his liver-colored face slowly fading and his coughing sound also slowly slowing down, he knew that he had returned in time.

It wasn't that he had a clever plan, but that he really remembered the despair in their eyes just now.

The first thing I thought about was whether the two girls would set the house on fire in a fit of anger, but when they entered the courtyard and saw no one, they thought of this.

Unfortunately, he saw his father Li Shun once, with bulging eyes and a long tongue...

Damn it, if something like this happened to the house we just bought, we would be in big trouble.

When the two of them stopped coughing and started crying, Li Xuewu knew that they were alive.

"stand up!"

Li Xuewu looked at the two of them like mud monkeys, stared and said angrily: "Do you have any grudge against me? Have I offended you two?"

Tong Huimei held Jin Jiaojiao and just cried there, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances she had suffered these days.

Li Xuewu raised his head and looked at the two bullet heads on the beam, and couldn't help but frown.

These two people really know how to choose a place. If they come here to cook in the future, the more they think about it, the more scared they will become.

Li Xuewu looked at his watch. He couldn't afford to spend time with these two people, let alone get angry.

"stand up"

Although Li Xuewu's voice was still cold this time, there was no angry tone, and he frowned at the two of them and said, "If tears could solve the problem, the streets would be flooded with rivers."

Seeing Li Xuewu say this, Tong Huimei was one year older after all, and she endured the crying and pulled Jin Jiaojiao to stand up.

Both of their clothes were stained by the water on the kitchen floor. They couldn't tell where they fell when they fell. Now their faces were crying like tabby cats.

Li Xuewu looked at the embarrassed figures of the two people, pointed his fingers and said: "Look at this virtue, even if you become a ghost, you are still a ghost, and no one will want to see you wherever you go."

Seeing Li Xuewuxun's unpleasantness, both of them snorted the hair on their faces with their hands.

"You still know how to care about your image!"

Li Xuewu glared angrily, then looked at the dark dish stained with baju on the pot table, and said with a smile: "I'm still starving to death."

After saying this, he turned to look at the two people and emphasized: "Hungry, ugly, and crybaby ghost."

"Woooo..."

"Hold it back!"

Seeing that Jin Jiaojiao was about to cry again, Li Xuewu scolded her in a low voice, which frightened Jin Jiaojiao into suppressing her cry.

Li Xuewu glared, looked at her and reprimanded: "You still have the nerve to cry, your brain is usually filled with water, right?"

After speaking, he looked at the two of them, breathed a long sigh of relief, pointed outside and said, "Go, wash your face and change clothes."

Tong Huimei looked up at Li Xuewu in surprise, wondering what this meant.

Jin Jiaojiao pursed her lips, looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "Wash... wash your face? Change clothes? Why?"

Li Xuewu said angrily: "I'm afraid you'll be cold on the road, so you're going to be a ghost. Dress up neatly and wear something nice. I'll drive you to the western suburbs for target shooting."

Hearing what Li Xuewu said, Jin Jiaojiao was frightened and turned pale. She pursed her lips and wanted to cry again, but she didn't dare to cry when she saw Li Xuewu's staring eyes.

Tong Huimei grabbed Jin Jiaojiao's hand, glanced at Li Xuewu, and then pulled the sisters who were connected by fate out of the kitchen door.

Li Xuewu watched the two people go out and sighed. He was also scared now.

Later, I was afraid that I would kick the accelerator and drive home and have dinner...

There are two more hanging here. Three days later, they are still smelly.

He looked down at the dark dishes on the pot table and sighed helplessly.

These two people are capable enough to live their lives like useless people.

He lifted up the stool on the ground, put away the two hemp ropes, and stuffed them directly into the stove door.

He filled up the fire at the door of the stove pit, filled two ladles of water into the pot, and then left the kitchen door.

As soon as I walked around the yard, I saw two policemen entering the yard, followed by several old ladies with small feet.

"Li...Director Li?"

When the police saw Li Xuewu standing in the yard, their eyes couldn't help but widen, and they couldn't believe it.

Li Xuewu turned around, looked at the two of them, and asked, "Is it from Jiaodaokou?"

"yes"

The two saluted in unison and reported: "Some people in the street reported that they heard gunshots. Let's come and take a look."

"Um"

At this moment, Li Xuewu saw the two sisters washing their faces, changing clothes and walking out of the backyard.

Seeing the police inspector and the street aunt standing at the door of Chuihua Gate, they both lowered their heads in shame.

Although I was scared, I still walked over with trembling legs.

Li Xuewu glanced at the two of them. Each was wearing cloth shoes, navy blue trousers, a white floral shirt, and a cotton jacket.

Looking at him like this, except that he lowered his head to hide the marks on his neck, there was nothing wrong with him.

Li Xuewu turned his head, looked at the two policemen and said: "There is a rat running in the kitchen. He is the boss. I fired two shots."

"Rat?..."

After hearing Li Xuewu's explanation, everyone in the courtyard opened their eyes wide.

The two policemen and the old ladies behind them couldn't believe that Li Xuewu did it for two mice.

The two sisters in the courtyard couldn't believe that Li Xuewu called them mice.

Quite the boss...

Li Xuewu waved to the two policemen and took them to the kitchen to see the bullet holes in the beams and the warheads inside. He also removed the magazine from his firearm and showed them to them.

The two of them believed Li Xuewu's words when they saw the bullet hole. This was their leader's leadership, and that's not all.

"Understood"

The two of them didn't say anything else. At this time, the management of firearms was just that. If ordinary people did this, they would have to give a lecture.

But Li Xuewu can't talk about a few dishes here and train the leader.

Li Xuewu didn't explain why he was here. He sent the two of them out and then returned to the yard.

The two sisters had stopped crying a long time ago, but they were not in a good mood at the moment, but they finally let go of the stone in their hearts for the time being.

This person did not call the police to chase them away, but also settled the matter, as if Yang Bailao had temporarily passed the New Year's Eve.

Li Xuewu shook his chin and looked at the two of them with toothache.

"are you hungry?"

"No……"

Tong Huimei was about to say she wasn't hungry, but Jin Jiaojiao's stomach growled in disgrace.

Jin Jiaojiao was also embarrassed, her face turned red, she held her stomach and lowered her head.

Li Xuewu drooped his eyelids and waved his hands to the two of them, indicating that they should follow.

They both raised their heads and saw the man who had already left the hanging flower door. They looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"Not coming yet?"

Li Xuewu's figure was no longer visible, but the sound came from the hall, and the two of them hurriedly followed.

Li Xuewu stood by the door. When the two of them came out timidly, he locked the door with the lock.

Both of them looked at the lock with pale faces. They were afraid of Li Xuewu's lock, and then said goodbye to them.

Fortunately, Li Xuewu didn't say that, but his tone wasn't much better either.

"Get in the car, why don't I treat you two?" After saying that, he jumped into the car.

Seeing that Li Xuewu didn't chase them away, the two of them quickly got in the car.

Perhaps they were afraid of Li Xuewu, so they all crowded into the back and sat down.

Li Xuewu didn't care and drove his car towards the street.

After such a delay, it was already half past six in the evening. It was hard to say whether the family would eat or not, and it was hard to explain why they were taking these two people back.

He simply found a restaurant at the entrance of the street and parked the car at the door.

Seeing Li Xuewu turn off the engine and get out of the car, the two frightened quails jumped out of the car again under Li Xuewu's gloomy eyes.

Xu fell from the rafter and broke his leg, so his movements when getting out of the car were a little unstable.

But Li Xuewu just looked at it and didn't help him, let alone ask.

He took the lead to enter the door, asked the waiter in the store for a table near the corner, pointed to the table and motioned to the two people behind him, and then went to order.

The restaurant here is not big, and there are only a few dishes, all written on the small blackboard.

A plate of peanuts, a bowl of chicken stewed with potatoes, a plate of scrambled eggs, and a large bowl of dumpling soup.

After ordering eight more steamed buns and paying one yuan and twenty cents and the corresponding food stamps, Li Xuewu went to the corner seat when the waiter responded, "Just wait at your seat."

Li Xuewu rarely eats out, but he also knows the current situation of restaurants, which are not sparse in ingredients. The three of them ordered three dishes and eight steamed buns. This was considering that the two of them were hungry, so he ate Many reasons.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to eat so much.

Even if I paid one yuan and two, the chicken would be too expensive, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get there.

Walking to the Eight Immortals table, Li Xuewu kicked the bench and sat down, then looked at the two quails sitting opposite.

There were not too many or too few people eating in the room today. It was very lively at the moment, and some people were looking over here.

After all, a young man with a gun stuck in his hand and two girls coming in for dinner is very conspicuous.

When they saw that the three of them were staring at each other without speaking, everyone around them also turned their heads.

It wasn't until the waiter brought the dishes on a tray and placed them on the table that Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao reacted.

They glanced at Li Xuewu just now, and each of them avoided the gaze of the person opposite, lowering their heads and saying nothing.

Now that the food was on the table, everyone felt empty in their stomachs.

Li Xuewu looked at the two people opposite him who were peeking at him, took a pair of chopsticks from the bamboo chopstick cage, and then tapped the table with the chopsticks.

Seeing Li Xuewu's eyes, the two hesitated, timidly and tentatively stretched out their hands.

When their hands touched the chopsticks, they didn't see any reaction from Li Xuewu, so they each took a pair of chopsticks.

Li Xuewu ignored them and just pushed the bowl of stewed chicken in front of the two of them. Then he took the steamed buns and started eating the dishes on the table.

Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

I didn't expect that I could still eat. Finally, I didn't have to eat the lumps of charcoal I made.

Seeing that the man opposite was eating quickly, they both took the steamed buns and started eating.

Maybe he was hungry, so he no longer cared about his image. Although he still kept his mouth small and remained reserved, his chopsticks danced faster than Li Xuewu's.

After a steamed bun was eaten, the two people's faces became lively.

Tong Huimei looked at Li Xuewu, hesitated, and tentatively stretched out her hand to take Li Xuewu's rice bowl.

But seeing Li Xuewu squinting his eyes and looking at her like a tiger, he couldn't help but explain nervously: "I...I'll serve you soup."

“Can’t bear it”

Li Xuewu glanced at her, moved his bowl next to the soup bowl, scooped two spoonfuls of soup for himself with a spoon, and continued to eat.

Seeing Li Xuewu's attitude, Tong Huimei took Jin Jiaojiao's bowl with some bitterness.

After filling both of their bowls with soup, they took the steamed buns and started eating the soup in small bites.

Because I had a steamed bun to cushion my belly, I regained my reserved look now.

I don’t know if their master’s upbringing was strict, or if their mistress’s education was good, but the eating etiquette was very particular.

Li Xuewu observed with the corner of his eyes that this was Miss Jiao's life and Miss Jiao's illness.

It is completely an old tradition passed down by old-school artists. Female apprentices must be pampered when they grow up.

These female apprentices are not only performing on stage, but more likely a tool for them to maintain their dignity.

These actresses are good-looking and talented, and they have been trained to be well-educated, and most of them are concubines.

As long as one of them is favored, there will be no trouble for them to perform at local venues.

So when Li Xuewu saw their appearance and living habits, he knew that their master was not a kind person either.

Of course, there are no kind people in this world. All the gifts given by fate have been secretly marked with a price.

How can there be so many talented people and beautiful women, all kinds of filth are insignificant in front of the flowers and under the moon.

Relatively speaking, Li Xuewu lives a more realistic life, seemingly utilitarian, but he also lives a clear life.

We are all people with "a lot" of life experience, and if we play with people who are just starting to fall in love or love and hate, that's not childish, that's just being ignorant.

Of course, Li Xuewu didn't expect to get any price from the two of them for today's meal, and he probably wouldn't be able to get it.

If you lose money, you will definitely lose money. The only way to make money is to eat one more steamed bun.

Tong Huimei and Tong Huimei ate the first steamed bun quickly, but the second steamed bun slowed down.

Seeing that Li Xuewu refused to eat the chicken in the bowl, the two of them ate it reservedly.

After they finished eating the steamed buns in their hands, there was only one steamed bun left in the basket.

There were still dishes on the plate, but Li Xuewu stopped the chopsticks in his hand, wiped his mouth with the handkerchief in his pocket, and then looked at the two people opposite who had also stopped using their chopsticks.

"Are you full?"

"Eat...have eaten"

Jin Jiaojiao looked at Li Xuewu and did not dare to speak, but it was Tong Huimei who answered.

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows when he heard this answer. If he spoke rudely again, wouldn't he be impolite?

Or do you have to learn how to speak so appropriately?

When you are full, you are full, but you are eating well.

"Well, it's convenient to talk now."

General Li Xuewu pushed the bowl in front of him to the side and said: "Let's talk about the matter calmly and try to solve it today."

When Jin Jiaojiao saw what Li Xuewu said, she pursed her lips and looked at Tong Huimei, thinking that Tong Huimei should talk to Li Xuewu.

Tong Huimei lowered her head and hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Thank you..."

Li Xuewu heard her wanting to thank her, but before she could finish her words, he stretched out his hand and waved.

"Don't say thank you. What you should say more is an apology, but it doesn't make any sense."

"yes"

Tong Huimei took a small bite of the cherry, waited for Li Xuewu to finish, then nodded and said: "We were wrong, we caused you trouble."

He bowed slightly as he spoke, and then explained: "We really have no way to survive, and we just couldn't think about it for the moment..."

Li Xuewu tilted his head, looked at the two of them for a while, and asked, "What's going on?"

"What?"

Tong Huimei didn't realize what Li Xuewu meant by asking. She was stunned for a moment and then understood.

Without waiting for Li Xuewu to repeat the question, he said nervously: "We can do anything..."

"Can you cook?"

"..."

"Moving bricks?"

"..."

"And mud?"

"..."

Hearing Li Xuewu ask this, Tong Huimei was speechless. Every time Li Xuewu asked, her head lowered.

Seeing the contempt in Li Xuewu's eyes, Jin Jiaojiao, who was sitting next to him, whispered: "We can sing..."

"oh"

Li Xuewu turned to look at her, responded noncommittally, and then asked: "Then why don't you go to opera to support yourself? Didn't you just say that there is no way to survive?"

Seeing Li Xuewu asking this, Jin Jiaojiao didn't dare to say anything again. Tong Huimei pulled her companion, raised her head and looked at Li Xuewu and said helplessly: "She and I both grew up in elementary school arts and have never learned anything else..."

"Then you can't do everything."

Li Xuewu looked at Tong Huimei and said, "So stop being able to do anything."

"yes"

Tong Huimei also understood what Li Xuewu meant and nodded resignedly.

But it felt like a piece of glass was broken in her heart. The skills she relied on to survive could not be earned in this society.

From this point of view, the hard work of the two of them for more than ten years seems to be a waste of time.

At the very least, in front of this person, the two of them are useless.

Li Xuewu thought the same way. He couldn't even eat, yet he dared to say he knew everything.

Why don't you put your own food in your mouth when you know how to do everything?

"This house is mine"

Li Xuewu emphasized: "I have nothing to do with you two."

"yes"

Tong Huimei's expression changed, but since Li Xuewu said it, she would resolve it calmly today.

She had no choice but to continue the conversation in response to Li Xuewu's words. If there was no way out, depending on the face of their daughter's family, they would not do anything like occupying other people's houses and not leaving.

Li Xuewu emphasized again: "So you must move."

Seeing Li Xuewu say this, both of their faces turned pale. They looked at the dishes on the table. They had appetites just now, but now they felt cold in their hearts.

Li Xuewu looked at the faces of the two and breathed out his breath. He frowned slightly, shook his chin, and asked, "So, you want me to support you?"

Tong Huimei suddenly raised her head and looked at Li Xuewu with wide eyes, unable to believe that Li Xuewu would say this.

In other words, she couldn't believe that Li Xuewu would say such a thing based on his identity.

Li Xuewu looked at her with the same expression and said: "I don't want to leave, I can't live, I hang myself when I'm kicked out, I just love to cry."

Seeing that Li Xuewu's words were quite rhyming, Jin Jiaojiao, who was sitting beside her, pursed her lips and almost bit her tongue.

Li Xuewu ignored her, but looked at Tong Huimei, who was in charge, and asked, "If you stay here like this, will you all have to starve to death in the house sooner or later if I don't come?"

Tong Huimei thought about the few cents the two of them had in their hands. They were running out of ammunition and food.

Tonight, the plate was dark, but it was the last bit of food the two of them had frugally. After eating this meal, they didn’t know where to get their next meal.

Usually the two of them rarely go out, they are the kind of people who never leave the front door and are not allowed to step forward from the second door.

The master left in a hurry and only said a word to the two of them. Their fate was over and they had to make a living.

These few cents were saved by their frugality, and they usually don't get a piece of it.

It was impossible for them to go to the vegetable market to pick up vegetables. First, they would lose face, and second, they would not be able to find a vegetable market.

How else could Li Xuewu say that the two of them would starve to death? These two people are worse than Sister Lou.

"I'm sorry for causing you any trouble."

It seemed that this was the only thing Tong Huimei could say, and she couldn't say anything else and had no reason to say it.

Li Xuewu drooped his eyelids and said: "I am most afraid of trouble, but trouble must be solved when it comes to me, so there are two ways."

Seeing what Li Xuewu said, Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao both looked at Li Xuewu, waiting for Li Xuewu to continue.

Li Xuewu paused and said: "One, if I delay renting the house for a month, it will be a good time to find you a house and a good way to make a living. I won't charge rent, but don't cause damage, let alone stay inside." Playing with self-mutilation.”

Jin Jiaojiao's eyes were still shining, but after listening to Li Xuewu's words, the light dimmed again.

What they lack now is not the time to live in a house, but the food in their mouths.

Not even rice, because they couldn't turn it into rice.

At least... at least there must be a cook...

Tong Huimei said nothing, her eyes remained unchanged, looking at Li Xuewu, waiting for the second way.

Li Xuewu waited for the two of them to finish their reaction, and then continued: "Second, I support you, and all the food and clothing are mine. You don't have to make money or find a house, but you know what this means."

After listening to Li Xuewu's words, Tong Huimei's face finally changed, her face was as white as snow, and her shoulders were about to collapse.

Jin Jiaojiao looked at Li Xuewu and then at Tong Huimei.

She is younger, but she knows everything she needs to know. The stories in the drama are more exciting and cruel than reality.

"You support us?"

Jin Jiaojiao was more direct than Tong Huimei. After looking at Li Xuewu for a while, she asked: "Aren't you... a cadre?"

Li Xuewu looked at her and did not answer the question. Apparently he only wanted to hear answers, not questions.

Jin Jiaojiao was obviously aware of Li Xuewu's intention. She looked at Li Xuewu with wide eyes and her calculations were rattling in her heart.

"We really don't have to make money? We don't have to cook and eat by ourselves? Do the laundry..."

Li Xuewu squinted his eyes and said: "If you can't even wash clothes, I will send you to the moat in a while."

"go……"

Jin Jiaojiao was just about to ask why she was going to the moat, but she remembered that when she came out just now, the man said he wanted to do target practice with the two of them.

Then go to the moat and you will understand what it means.

At this moment, I also shrank my neck, not daring to raise any more conditions, but I had already thought about it.

"I...I can do my own laundry."

Jin Jiaojiao's answer was that she had chosen her own path, and it also surprised Tong Huimei who was sitting beside her.

"Jiaojiao!"

Li Xuewu looked at the girl and raised his eyebrows. He deliberately gave two ways, forcing the two of them to go out on their own.

At this time, no one has any self-esteem. Given this month, even if he goes to the street to do some work of gluing matchboxes, he can make ends meet.

Renting a house is very cheap now, just a few cents a month, so you wouldn't choose the second option, right?

But this girl seemed to have discovered some secret to living a life of lying idle, and she resolutely chose the path of no return by committing herself to others.

"Sister, are you still thinking about that person?"

Jin Jiaojiao revealed Tong Huimei's thoughts and said angrily: "What has he told you? You are still thinking about him. Now that we have neither money nor food, can we still beg for food?"

"Um"

Li Xuewu nodded and interjected: "This is a decent businessman."

Seeing Li Xuewu's expression, Jin Jiaojiao looked at her continuously, took Tong Huimei's hand and whispered: "I don't have the shame to beg for food."

Tong Huimei also lowered her head and shed tears at this moment. She was full of hatred in her heart and couldn't express the bitterness in her mouth.

Jin Jiaojiao asked for food, but there was no way she could do it. She had been so hungry these past few days and she didn't even think about stepping out of the door.

The world outside that threshold seemed to be full of wild beasts, making them afraid to go out, let alone accept the reality.

They were used to the life in the house and thought it would be good to live like this for the rest of their lives.

This may be the natural desire for protection of a child who has no father or mother and grows in a desolate environment.

Seeing that her sister was silent, Jin Jiaojiao glanced at the person sitting opposite and whispered in Tong Huimei's ear: "You can see the money at first sight. I used gold bars to buy Master's house. I eavesdropped that night, and so did the other Masters and Uncles." I sold the house to him and it was all settled in gold bars."

Tong Huimei turned her head slightly and looked at Jin Jiaojiao, with a bitter look on her face.

Jin Jiaojiao did not cry, but wiped the tears of the young lady and said: "You and I are both ghosts living in the drama. Since I want to be a ghost, then I don't want to be a hungry, ugly and crying ghost."

Tong Huimei shed tears when she saw her little sister's words, making Li Xuewu look like a bully who forced his good boy to do...

"Dangdang"

Li Xuewu tapped the table with his fingers and said: "I'm in a hurry. If you two have agreed, then we can talk openly and honestly. If you are not in a hurry, you can find time to cry when you are free."

Seeing that the person opposite was so "cruel", Tong Huimei also held back her tears.

Jin Jiaojiao wanted to choose the second path, but she did not have the courage to choose the first one. She could only look at Li Xuewu and wait for the next chapter.

Li Xuewu also looked at her and asked, "So, you still want me to support you?"

"yes"

At this moment, Tong Huimei nodded sadly and said, "Please take care of He... He... in the future."

After a few words, she didn't say the next words. Li Xuewu nodded and said, "Come on, I value credibility the most, so I won't sign any agreement. Let's go back now."

After hearing Li Xuewu's words, Tong Huimei's face had just turned a little red, and now it turned white again.

But the roots of his ears turned red again.

Go back...go back, go back for what?

Li Xuewu ignored her and asked the waiter at the counter if he had anything to pack, even if he just borrowed a lunch box. There were some dishes left over there.

The waiter looked at the gun on Li Xuewu's waist and asked, "Comrade, which unit are you from?"

Generally speaking, many professions or units can carry guns, especially this kind of pistol.

But Li Xuewu's pistol was very special, and since he carried it so blatantly, the unit must be nearby or have a special status.

After all, even if you have a gun, it will be in your clothes or bag.

Li Xuewu took out his work permit, put it on the counter, and explained: "My home is two streets away from here. I'll have someone deliver it to me tomorrow morning."

The waiter looked at Li Xuewu's ID and was shocked by his position.

However, she and Li Xuewu are not from the same company, so there is nothing to be afraid of Li Xuewu.

So he put the ID in his hand back on the counter and replied: "There is no extra lunch box, but is it okay to have a plastic bag?"

"You still have this here?"

The waiter did not doubt his ID, but Li Xuewu had doubts about this restaurant.

Plastic bags are very expensive at this time, and it can be said that they are not yet popular in ordinary cities, let alone rural areas.

But the waiter said nonchalantly: "The manager did it. He said that all the goldfish sellers use this disguise. Our place is next to the school. There are many people who come to eat during the day and take away too many. The manager thought of this. ".

“Your manager is really a strange person”

Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and asked, "Just use a plastic bag. How much does it cost?"

What he was thinking was that it was his own idea to take away the uneaten food, and others were not obligated to provide anything for free.

But the waiter replied: "No money, but you have to register for me, our manager wants it."

Li Xuewu looked at the registration book that the waiter brought over, but raised his eyebrows.

This manager is very clever. The people registered here are all people from the unit. If nothing else, the unit plus name is a relationship.

As expected, no one in Qinxing is simple, there are so many tricks.

After writing my name and the unit name of the steel rolling mill, I accepted a plastic bag and some pieces of brown paper given by the waiter.

"Thank you, sorry for your trouble"

I thanked the waiter, and then returned to the table to pack up the leftovers, but Tong Huimei rushed to take them.

Li Xuewu let the two of them work, pointed to the door and said, "I'm going to prepare the car. I'll pack it up and come out."

"knew"

Both of them responded in a coquettish manner. Li Xuewu felt his ears itching and turned around to go out.

After I started the car, I waited for a while and then I saw the two people coming out.

After getting in the car, he stopped asking the two of them anything and drove the car back to the house with the two of them.

Because they were so close, it didn't take long. When Li Xuewu opened the lock and entered the yard, the two men followed Li Xuewu silently like ghosts.

Maybe it was because he had practiced his steps since he was young, but there was no sound when he walked. Li Xuewu always felt itchy behind him.

When they got to the backyard, they went upstairs with their faces red.

"Does this room belong to you?"

"yes"

Tong Huimei was still holding the plastic bag in her hand, but she couldn't find a place to put it with her other hand. She didn't know what this person was going to do.

Li Xuewu looked at the two beds and the two boxes containing clothes.

It seemed like everything was packed up and ready to go, but some of it was left outside.

"I'll carry your luggage, you pack your things, as soon as possible, I'm in a hurry."

When the two of them were stunned, Li Xuewu entered the room, rolled up the two blankets on the bed, and walked out with one pair under his arm.

"You...you...he..."

Jin Jiaojiao looked at Li Xuewu's back blankly, pointed her finger at Tong Huimei, and asked with her mouth open: "No... Isn't it agreed..."

Tong Huimei knew what she meant, but now she didn't know what Li Xuewu meant.

Originally, she thought Li Xuewu was going to bring the two of them back to do something, but what is he doing now?

But Li Xuewu said that he wanted them to pack their things, so he shouldn't just kick them out.

But when I thought about it, it was all agreed upon, that was...

When Li Xuewu returned upstairs, he saw two people standing next to two boxes and looking at him blankly.

"It doesn't matter if you haven't finished cleaning up. I'll clean it up when I come back tomorrow."

Li Xuewu stepped forward and carried two rattan boxes with handles. As he walked down, he said: "I have to go to work tomorrow and I don't have time to arrange for you. Now hurry up and take your wash basin with me."

The two looked at each other, had no choice but to take the washbasin on the floor, and followed Li Xuewu downstairs.

When he returned to the door, Li Xuewu secured the luggage and motioned for the two of them to get in the car.

The two of them knew that they were going to take them away. They would no longer live here. They might be taking them home...

Their thoughts were complicated, but Li Xuewu didn't have the courage. There were fewer people at night and the speed of the car increased.

Because there was luggage in the back, only one person could sit, and Jin Jiaojiao took the seat.

There was also a rattan box at Tong Huimei's feet, and she sat in the passenger seat.

I glanced at the man next to me, and then at the road ahead. Where are we going?

Li Xuewu didn't give the two people a chance to ask questions and concentrated on driving.

When I got to the place, I stopped the car without turning off the engine. I jumped out of the car and looked at the light coming from the concierge's window, then I knocked on the door.

"Who?!"

An impatient voice came from the window with yellow light, followed by a burst of yelling.

"The electricity bill has been paid, the water bill has been paid, but if I don't buy public bonds, you still have to do it..."

Zhou Changli's impatient voice stopped abruptly as the door opened. He really never expected that this person would come back so soon.

Li Xuewu looked at him and asked, "What are you shouting about?"

"No...no"

Zhou Changli looked at the black night and saw how the man standing at the door was more scary than during the day.

Li Xuewu glared at him, then turned around and said to the two people who were still in a daze in the car: "Get off the car, you will live here from now on."

Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao are no strangers to this place. Even if they don't know the way they came here, they still know this grand residence.

The two of them didn't dare to speak. They looked at the mansion that was dormant here like a beast. It was dark and scary.

But if this person says something, then you have to obey.

When Zhou Changli got a clear look at the people under the steps from Li Xuewu's side, his eyes widened.

This...where did I find such a beautiful girl?

Then I thought of what Li Xuewu just said, living... living here, doesn't that mean...

He had a half-baked idea.

The update is delayed by one day, and there are still more than 2,000 words left, but it is too late. I will definitely update it tomorrow.
