Chapter 840 80 Brother Soldier, a drop of water does not need to be repaid with your body 33
When Guan's mother came out of the kitchen, she only saw the loving appearance of the brother and sister.
"You two young people are up quite early. Jingxing, you should eat more quickly. You've been busy all morning."
No one would dislike a young person who is diligent and not arrogant, especially one who is excellent but not arrogant.
Guan's mother really likes Lu Jingxing. He always gets up earlier than herself in the morning to help her make breakfast. Even this morning when she got up, little Lu was already helping to make breakfast at home.
After she took over, Xiao Lu started chopping wood in the yard again, and pushed his old man into a hole in the ground.
Miaomiao was very satisfied as she ate the brown sugar bun that Lu Jingxing handed over.
Finally, I don’t have to eat sweet potato porridge with pickles every day, and there isn’t a drop of oil in the vegetable garden anymore.
Miaomiao felt that she had started to gain weight in just two days.
Could it be that her mother had used up all the family savings?
Guan Chongshan, who had already helped clean up the garbage in the stove, came out holding a brown sugar bun. Seeing the two children eating the brown sugar buns, he sat down at the eight-immortal table.
"Xiao Lu, how about I take you to the county town today?
Miaomiao used to stay in school all the time and had few opportunities to visit the county town. She didn't know anything, so how could she lead the way?
I have lived in Yuyun County for over forty years. If there is anything going on in the county, I often go there and can help you if you need any help."
Lu Jingxing was still watching the little girl slurping the brown sugar from the brown sugar bun out of the corner of his eye. Her mouth was dyed black and red, and his Adam's apple was rolling because of the sweetness. But suddenly he heard his father-in-law's blind words.
Fortunately, he had thought of it a long time ago, so he answered calmly.
"Uncle, I appreciate your kindness, but the affairs of the village cannot be separated from you. As a brother, I am just taking Miaomiao to walk around the county to familiarize herself with the environment.
Miaomiao is already an adult, she can’t always be under your protection, right?
Don't worry, I just discussed with her that we won't come back for dinner tonight, and we'll come back earlier than yesterday.
By then, some things will have come to fruition.”
Lu Jingxing's words "there are results" immediately reminded Guan Chongshan of Miaomiao's job that had failed and then became popular again, and the fact that the child still didn't know that the job at the guesthouse had failed.
Forget it, just get to know Xiao Lu better. When you live there in the future, Xiao Lu can also be a support for Miao Miao.
"Dad, don't worry. I'll just go and join in the fun and get a free meal from Big Brother Lu. Watching the bad guys get caught is much more interesting than listening to the gossip in the village."
Miaomiao was sincere in what she said. Since she couldn't help for a few days anyway, it was a good opportunity to familiarize herself with her future work environment.
Miaomiao's eyes were bright and full of anticipation for the future when she entered the guesthouse.
Guan Zhongshan was not that persistent, but now that the two of them had said that, he could not refute it anymore, so he could only give orders.
"Go early and come back early. Your brother Lu is going to do some serious business. Be good."
Miaomiao nodded obediently and agreed. Before leaving, Guan Chongshan gave her ten yuan so that she could eat outside, as the saying goes, "A poor family is rich on the road."
Miaomiao obediently took the money her father gave her, and silently calculated in her heart that when she got a job, she could keep half of the money to supplement the family expenses and let her parents eat better.
Early in the morning, perhaps because it was still early, there were not many pedestrians on the road. The glances and the discomfort between the two people last night seemed to have disappeared, and Miaomiao felt more at ease.
When we arrived at the county town, it was just past seven o'clock, which was the right time for breakfast.
Lu Jingxing took Miaomiao for a stroll in the morning market of the county town. Miaomiao's attention could not help but be drawn to the sugar-roasted chestnut stall on the corner of the street. Although it was quite far away, she could not help but take two deep breaths through her nose, and her eyes were bright as if stars fell from them.
Miaomiao thought her action was relatively secretive, but she didn't expect that Lu Jingxing had been observing her silently, and her every move was within Lu Jingxing's sight.
Miaomiao touched the rolled-up handkerchief on her wrist. The ten yuan given by her father was placed in the handkerchief and rolled up on her wrist.
She just saw that chestnuts cost fifty cents per pound, enough to buy three meat buns from a state-owned restaurant.
So, even though the chestnuts were boiling in the iron pan until they were shiny and the aroma of caramel was penetrating into her nostrils, Miaomiao suppressed her craving when she thought that this money could be enough for several meals.
Let's wait until she gets a job and gets paid. I heard that temporary workers in the guesthouse can earn 30 yuan a month. Then she can buy half a pound, peel it slowly and eat it however she wants.
As she was thinking about it, she looked up and saw Lu Jingxing, who had been standing next to her just now, walking towards her with an oil-paper bag and handing it to her without saying a word.
The paper bag was warm, and you could smell the sweet aroma through the paper.
Miaomiao hurriedly pushed it back.
"Stop pushing."
Lu Jingxing held Miaomiao's hand to stop her movements. When their hands touched each other, it was as if an electric current ran through her, causing Miaomiao to shiver subconsciously.
"Take it as a snack. It's nothing to treat your brother to a snack.
Otherwise, when you make money in the future, you can treat me to a delicious meal, okay?"
Lu Jingxing's attitude was too frank, and the fragrance in the paper bag was too strong, so Miaomiao couldn't help herself.
"Okay, I'll send some local specialties to Brother Lu then."
At this time, Miaomiao didn't know that her job was ruined. She just thought that the two of them would have no more contact in the future except for this task, so the first thing she thought of was mailing.
She didn't think that Lu Jingxing would come to this small county twice. He was a career-oriented man, and it was possible that he would only pass by the small county where a cannon fodder passerby lived.
Lu Jingxing looked at the little girl's calm expression, and a barely perceptible emotion flashed in his eyes.
It seemed that she didn't even have the slightest bit of reluctance to leave me. This heartless little thing, even when I fed her yesterday and the day before yesterday, she didn't feel the slightest bit of reluctance to leave...
As Lu Jingxing watched, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Forget it, his little girl hasn't figured it out yet.
Maybe, when they are really together, my addiction will subside a little?
But letting go is impossible. How can a wolf let go of food once it has already got it's mouth?
Lu Jingxing suppressed his emotions and pointed to a stone staircase not far away.
