Chapter 433 Reminiscing About Childhood (Please Vote for Me!!!)
"It's time to eat. Wow, it smells so good." Damai came to the stove and smelled it, with a satisfied look on his face.
Mr. Ma has also served the rice and is looking forward to it.
When the last dish was brought to the table, Damai suddenly said: "Sister Hongdou probably hasn't eaten yet. How about I ask her to come down and eat together."
"Okay, this dish is enough anyway."
After Mr. Ma finished speaking, Damai was about to go upstairs to call someone when he saw Xu Hongdou's door opened.
"Sister Hongdou, come and eat. Today we have braised pork ribs, which are delicious." Damai waved.
Xu Hongdou smiled at Damai, but did not answer. She walked down the stairs and came to the small courtyard. However, she did not approach the kitchen. Instead, she smiled at Damai and said, "Thank you, Damai, but no, I have to go out for something." trip."
After saying that, Xu Hongdou glanced at Qin Hao again.
Damai looked at Xu Hongdou's leaving figure, then looked at Qin Hao, and whispered: "Brother Hao, have you made Sister Hongdou angry? Why does she look at you like that?"
"Ahem, don't talk when you eat or sleep. Talking while eating is not conducive to digestion." Qin Hao was slightly embarrassed and prepared to change the topic.
Mr. Ma said to Damai with a joking face: "Oh, you kid, why don't you have any sharp eyesight? This person obviously has an unusual relationship with someone. It's not common for minor conflicts to arise."
"Master Ma, what's the unusual relationship? Who is this person and this person?" Damai's face was full of confusion.
Qin Hao glared at Master Ma angrily, then put a piece of braised pork ribs into the barley bowl: "Don't listen to his nonsense."
"oh."
Mr. Ma chuckled: "Okay, I won't say it, I won't say it anymore, someone will become angry from shame."
After eating and drinking, Master Ma was washing the dishes and Damai went back to catch up on his sleep. Qin Hao leisurely leaned back on the recliner and was about to take a nap when Xie Zhiyao barged in.
"You are really good at riding the 'little cutie' back from the racecourse, throwing it at my house and forgetting about it. Return it to me quickly." Seeing Qin Hao's comfortable state, Xie Zhiyao couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Qin Hao exposed it on the spot: "You just don't want to see others live a leisurely life, so why don't you just send it yourself? I have to make a trip."
"I'm not free right now. I'm going to visit Uncle Heshun later." Xie Zhiyao would not admit that he was jealous.
Qin Hao yawned: "Are you helping Mr. Xie introduce business again?"
Xie Zhiyao nodded.
Qin Hao couldn't help complaining: "Tell me, why are you doing this? You work hard to help him with business. You don't make a penny, and Teacher Xie doesn't appreciate it. To put it bluntly, you are just cheap."
Xie Zhiyao sighed: "Yes, I am a bitch, but no matter what, I still call him uncle. I can help him a little bit."
These words left Qin Hao speechless. After experiencing so many worlds, Xie Zhiyao was the first person he had ever encountered who devoted himself selflessly to others.
"Yes, you are not seeking for yourself, but only for others. I am being narrow-minded."
Xie Zhiyao was happy: "Why do you suddenly think so highly of me?"
"It's definitely out of emotion. For a good person like you, I decided to stay away from you. Generally, good people don't end well." Qin Hao joked.
Xie Zhiyao rolled his eyes: "That mouth of yours is really damaging."
After the laughter, Qin Hao said seriously: "Actually, with Teacher Xie's current reputation, there is really no shortage of work. His current problem is that the apprentice can't see hope. I think, instead of introducing business to Teacher Xie, why not Why not spend more time and help Xia Xia make short videos."
Xie Zhiyao thought for a while: "Well, what you said makes sense, but it doesn't conflict with helping Uncle Heshun introduce business. Let me help him negotiate the deal first."
After saying that, Xie Zhiyao stood up and left, saying something before walking to the door.
"The little cutie is at the door. Remember to help me return it to the racecourse. There are tourists coming in the afternoon and they have already made reservations. Don't delay."
There was no other way, Qin Hao could only get up, stretched out and said hello to Mr. Ma before leaving the courtyard.
At the door, the "little cutie" was scratching his hooves impatiently. When he saw Qin Hao coming out, he immediately snorted and stretched his head over to please him.
Qin Hao patted the "little cutie" on the horse's face, and did not get on the horse, but led it slowly to the racecourse.
When passing by Gesanghua Hotel, Xu Hongdou happened to come out of it, and the two bumped into each other. However, Xu Hongdou did not give Qin Hao a good look and turned around to leave.
As a result, the "little cutie" recognized Xu Hongdou, stretched out her face to please her, and blocked Xu Hongdou's way.
Xu Hongdou naturally thought that this was Qin Hao's instruction and glared at him again.
Qin Hao said he was wronged: "This has nothing to do with me. It may just recognize you and say hello."
After Qin Hao said this, Xu Hongdou looked at the agitated "little cutie" again, stretched out his hand to touch its face, and sure enough, the "little cutie" became obedient immediately, and even rubbed his head against Xu Hongdou's body. , just like a child acting coquettishly, making Xu Hongdou finally have a smile on his face.
"Okay, I apologize for my rude behavior before. Next time this happens again, I will definitely say hello to you in advance."
Facing Qin Hao's seemingly sincere apology, Xu Hongdou sneered: "Do you still want a next time? I'm dreaming!"
After saying that, Xu Hongdou patted the "little cutie" on the head, then turned and left.
Just as the "cutie" was about to follow, Qin Hao slapped it on the forehead and said angrily: "Let's go back to the racecourse."
The "little cutie" followed behind aggrievedly.
On the other side, after Xu Hongdou and Qin Hao separated, they unknowingly wandered into the market. Grandma Xie spotted her from afar and waved to her enthusiastically.
"Thank you, grandma, did you make these yourself? Your hands are so skillful." Xu Hongdou praised while holding a cloth tiger.
Xie Grandma nodded kindly: "Which one do you like, Grandma will give it to you."
"No, I just think your craftsmanship is really good." Xu Hongdou said and began to change the subject: "Thank you, grandma, how much can you sell today?"
Grandma Xie smiled and said, "It doesn't cost much. When it's good, it's one or two hundred, and when it's bad, it's just dozens of yuan. That's enough for our family's food and pocket money."
Xu Hongdou couldn't help but feel a little confused. Grandma Xie's son and daughter-in-law were not at home, so she should send money back. What's more, she got her son Xie Zhiyuan back, so why would an old lady go out to set up a stall to earn living expenses? There is also Xie Zhiyao, who is still "not doing a proper job" in his thirties and can't even support his family. No wonder he doesn't have a girlfriend and has to go on a blind date.
Xu Hongdou suddenly felt lucky that she had messed up the blind date yesterday, otherwise the female teacher would have jumped into the fire pit.
"Thank you grandma, I'm going to go shopping first, and we'll talk later."
"Okay, take your time and stroll around."
Here, when Qin Hao led the "little cutie" to the racecourse, tourists had already arrived. There were six or seven people, all young men and women. Originally, Qin Hao planned to hand the "little cutie" to Uncle Deqing and leave, but it turned out that He was mistaken by two tourist girls as the staff of the racecourse and asked Qin Hao to teach them how to ride horses.
Qin Hao originally refused, but Uncle Deqing trotted over: "Xiao Qin, it's great that you're here. I'm the only one at the racecourse today. There are so many people who want to ride horses. I really can't handle it." , just help me."
Well, everyone asked for it, so Qin Hao could only make a cameo appearance and started to be an equestrian coach.
But Qin Hao soon discovered that the two girls were not interested in riding horses at all. They kept asking about his personal situation, where he was from, whether he had a girlfriend, etc.
Qin Hao exchanged some perfunctory words with them here and there, finally wasted the two hours of riding lessons, and quickly left.
Not long after I walked out, my phone rang. When I saw it was an unfamiliar number, I hesitated and pressed the answer button.
"Hello."
"Hello, do you know Xu Hongdou?"
Qin Hao was stunned for a moment: "I know you, who are you?"
"I'm Xu Hongdou's mother. That's it. Xu Hongdou's phone has been unreachable. I remember she called me from this number before. Can you help me call her?"
Qin Hao remembered that Xu Hongdou did come to him to borrow his cell phone the day he arrived. It seemed that he was reporting to his family that he was safe.
"Auntie, I'm outside now, and Xu Hongdou has also gone out. How about this? I'll look for her later. If I can't find her for the time being, can I wait until she comes back and call you back?"
Mother Xu's grateful voice came from the other end of the phone: "Okay, thank you very much. This Hongdou is also true. I broke my mobile phone when I was traveling far away. I couldn't find it all day long, but it made us anxious." .”
"Okay, just stop saying a few words and let others laugh."
No need to ask, this must be Father Xu.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Hao walked towards Yunmiao Village to see if he could meet her on the road. If he couldn't, there was nothing he could do. Anyway, Mother Xu had nothing urgent to do.
However, forget it, I actually ran into Xu Hongdou right next to the ancient tree in Yunmiao Village. She was taking pictures everywhere.
Xu Hongdou took the camera and took pictures, but an "uninvited guest" suddenly appeared in the lens. Xu Hongdou was about to ignore it and pretend not to see it, but was stopped by Qin Hao.
Facing the mobile phone handed over by Qin Hao, Xu Hongdou's face was full of doubts.
Qin Hao told him about the phone call from Xu's mother just now.
"Did my mother tell me what happened?" Xu Hongdou asked.
Qin Hao shook his head and put the phone directly into her hand: "Call back and ask, and we'll find out."
Xu Hongdou hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you."
Then he walked aside to make a phone call, and Qin Hao didn't follow him. After all, it wasn't good to eavesdrop on other people's privacy.
After almost ten minutes, Xu Hongdou returned the phone and said, "Here, please."
"It's not like you to be so polite." Qin Hao teased.
Xu Hongdou pouted and muttered, "You speak as if you know me very well."
It was said that he was mumbling, but in fact the voice was quite loud. Qin Hao heard it clearly and was secretly amused. Not to mention, he really knew Xu Hongdou and even knew about the situation in her family. Of course, he couldn't say this, otherwise it would be bad. Will be regarded as a "pervert" by Xu Hongdou.
"I'm going back to the courtyard first. Do you want to continue shopping or..." Qin Hao asked.
Xu Hongdou said helplessly: "I will also go back to the courtyard. The tasks assigned by my mother must be completed first. Then I will lend you your phone."
"OK."
The two of them were walking side by side on the stone road in Yunmiao Village, Xu Hongdou suddenly said with emotion.
"People here should live happily, right?"
Qin Hao shook his head: "That's just because you feel happy. You see, most of the people here are old people and children. Most of the young and middle-aged people go out to work, that is, they come back during the holidays. Do you think children and old people Can you be happy?"
Xu Hongdou was silent for a long time after hearing this, and murmured: "Is life in a big city good? You live like a gear, spinning constantly every day. When the wear and tear becomes serious one day, you will be eliminated."
"Although big cities have the hardships of big cities, there is nothing we can do about it. People always have to survive. The elderly and children have to be fed. Problems such as education and medical care cannot be solved in rural areas. They can only force people to gather in cities, and it is difficult to leave their hometown. , As long as you can live a good life in your hometown, who would be willing to leave your hometown?" Qin Hao said with emotion.
Xu Hongdou stared at Qin Hao for a while: "You also lived in the countryside when you were a child?"
Qin Hao nodded: "When I was a kid, I would go back to my hometown during summer vacations. I would go up to the mountains to catch rabbits, go down to the rivers to catch fish, catch crabs in the creeks, chase chickens and chase dogs, which made the village a mess and everyone hated me."
Xu Hongdou couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: "Then you are really naughty."
"What about you? You weren't a good girl when you were a child, were you?" Qin Hao asked.
Xu Hongdou glanced sideways at Qin Hao: "When I was a child, I grew up with my grandma. At that time, my grandma raised a lot of chickens. I also told my grandma that I would not go back to school and would raise chickens with her. My sister I laughed at it for a while.”
Walking all the way, I arrived at the entrance of Youfeng Xiaoyuan before I knew it.
"We agreed that what happened before is over, and we are not allowed to find fault again." Qin Hao took the opportunity to propose.
Xu Hongdou snorted, but did not refute and went straight into the small courtyard.
Mr. Ma was lounging leisurely on the recliner when he saw Qin Hao and Xu Hongdou coming back one after another. While Xu Hongdou was going upstairs, he quietly said to Qin Hao: "How is it? Are you reconciled?"
"Master Ma, I think you should continue to meditate." Qin Hao rolled his eyes.
The mouth that eats people is short, and the hands that take people are short, so Mr. Ma had no choice but to close his mouth, step back, and pretend that nothing happened.
After a while, Xu Hongdou brought a notebook down, asked Qin Hao to borrow his cell phone, and then started making calls.
Qin Hao probably also heard some information. Basically, Xu Hongdou's cousin got married and was going to the capital for her honeymoon. She wanted to stay in Xu Hongdou's previous hotel. Xu Hongdou didn't tell his parents about his resignation, fearing that they would worry. Naturally, I was afraid that this matter would be exposed, so I wanted to arrange for my cousin and the others to stay in another hotel.
"There's no way you can hide it like this. They'll be even more worried if they find out." Qin Hao reminded Xu Hongdou after seeing him finish the phone call.
Xu Hongdou flipped up her somewhat messy hair: "If I tell them, they won't worry anymore? If I can't help, I'll add more trouble. It can only be hidden for a while."
"No, how do you know I'm hiding something from them?"
"Have you resigned? The rent of Youfeng Xiaoyuan starts from three months. Which company offers such good treatment? I can take three months' leave. You can also introduce it to me."
