Gou is a poisonous milk in a strange world

Chapter 21 I'll Pick You Up
After a few days, Su Ze became more and more familiar with the life here. According to the usual practice, he first bought a newspaper, then went to the bakery to buy today's newly made small cakes and bread, and then made himself a cup of coffee worth one copper coin, and then Walked towards the slums with pleasant steps.

It is still a gloomy environment, and it is still dilapidated and low-rise houses. The slums here always seem to be covered with a thin layer of gray fog, which looks both depressed and lonely.

Although Su Ze goes back and forth here every day and is used to the environment here, every time he enters here, he still feels inexplicably gloomy and depressed.

But this time at the entrance of the gloomy street, there was a lovely figure. She was wearing a beautiful floral dress, her golden curly hair was flowing down, her round face was washed clean, and her pointed ears showed her Like a cute elf.

"Lilu!?" Su Ze shouted in surprise.

"Hey, the big brother is me." Li Lu narrowed her eyes and showed a cute smile.

"How did you come here, and you haven't smeared your face, it's very dangerous, do you know?"

"Because Lilu wants to pick up big brother." Lilu smiled sweetly, "Big brother has come to play with Lilu every day recently, and brought Lilu delicious cakes. Lilu also wants to come and wait for big brother once." .”

Lilu stood on the edge of the street, a small ditch blocked her way to Su Ze.

"It's a pity. Lilu can only wait here for her big brother at most, and she can't make it through." Lilu lowered her head in frustration as she spoke, and tightly squeezed the hem of her skirt with her small hands.

This ditch, which is less than one meter wide, is the drainage channel on the edge of Sezer, and it is also the dividing line between the aborigines and ordinary residents.

Aborigines have been barred from stepping over it all their lives
Seeing Li Lu's depressed mood, Su Ze could no longer utter her words of criticism.

He just stepped across the black and smelly ditch, walked to Lilu's side, and stretched out his big hand to rub the soft golden curly hair of little Lilu.

"Lilu is so beautiful today, big brother has never seen such a beautiful Lilu, is there anything happy about it? Could it be that I wear it specially for big brother? Haha~" Su Ze joked with a smile Dao, trying to divert the little girl's sad emotions.

The cute little Lilu blushed in an instant, and said falteringly, "No, Lilu Lilu just went to the field with her friends to pick some flowers, thought they were pretty, and decorated them on the skirt. Hmph, that's it." After saying that, Li Lu crossed her little hands arrogantly.

"Oh, that's it, big brother is so disappointed." Only then did Su Ze notice that what Lilu was wearing was not a new dress, but still the old white dress that was washed on weekdays, but it was now stained. With colorful flowers, it looks like a brand new skirt from a distance.

"Ah." Seeing Su Ze's deliberately disappointed expression, Li Lu panicked for a moment.

"I'm teasing you, little guy, hahaha."

"."

Su Ze has never smiled so heartily since he traveled here. Looking at the cute little Li's chubby face, he really wanted to squeeze her hands.

However, he soon noticed the gray figure leaning against the corner not far away, so he retracted his hand politely.

"As expected, the old man is still worried." Su Ze thought to himself.

Su Ze and Lilu chatted and laughed all the way through the narrow, crowded and uneven streets. When they came to Lilu's house, Grandpa Lilu was dressed in gray and sat by the bellows that pulled the fire. smoking his pipe.

Smoking is the only hobby of the old man, and blacksmithing can only be regarded as a means of making a living.

"Grandpa, grandpa, big brother came to play with me again, hehe." Li Lu happily took Su Ze's hand, greeted grandpa, and dragged Su Ze into the house.Su Ze couldn't react in time, so he reluctantly waved to Grandpa Lilu with a smile to show respect.

This time the old man didn't object, he just shook the pipe in his hand silently, and looked at his granddaughter with melancholy eyes.

This is the second time Su Ze's body has entered this room.

The first time was when Li Yuan was injured and rescued by Li Lu, but at that time Li Yuan was in a daze and didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment at all. When he came later, he was not allowed to enter the house like Su Ze.

This second time, Su Ze walked in awake.

The furnishing of the room is very simple, facing a wall covered with black cloth, on the right hand side is a mud-filled bunk, covered with a set of black-gray quilts that are not known to be dirty or of the original color, placed on the bed I bought a small table, which is where Lilu and grandpa usually eat.

On the left hand side, a shallow earth pit was dug, and burning wood was placed in the pit, which can not only keep warm in the cold night, but also cook simple food.

This simple big bed is where Grandpa Lilu sleeps.Lilu's bedroom is a small room separated by wooden boards, and a small wooden bed and table are placed inside.

"Look, big brother, isn't it pretty?" Lilu asked happily as she carefully hugged a bouquet of wild flowers from the room.

This flower has five petals, and each petal is a different color. It is a unique flower in the slums, so it is also regarded as an unlucky flower by those noble people.

"Pretty, as beautiful as Lilu." Su Ze praised earnestly.

"Okay, big brother likes the flowers Li Lu picks." Li Lu hugged the flowers happily and walked around, then handed the flowers to Su Ze, "Hey, I'll give it to you."

"Give it to me?" Su Ze was stunned. As a big man, he had never received a tweed.

"That's right, these are the flowers on the hillside behind us. They are colorful and beautiful. It is said that there are no flowers in the outside world. Lilu likes them very much. They say that what they like should be given to the person they like the most. Lilu Lu likes big brother, so she wants to give big brother all her favorite things. But what Lilu likes most is grandpa and these flowers, grandpa can't give big brother."

Seeing Li Lu's earnest explanation, Su Ze couldn't help laughing and joked, "I don't dare to ask for your grandpa."

"Cough cough!" There was a coughing sound from outside the house, Su Ze immediately fell silent, and Xiao Lilu immediately covered her mouth, and secretly laughed with Su Ze.

Then the old man walked into the room slowly with a pipe in hand, pulled up a small bench and sat down, and said to Su Ze, "Tell me, what's the matter."

"Grandpa." Lilu shouted coquettishly.

The old man looked at Lilu helplessly, and then his tone became a little gentler, "You have been back and forth for so many days, and you send cakes to Lilu every day, so there must be something wrong."

"We are so poor, what can you get?" The old man shook the ashes and continued, "I still want the old man to do something for you."

Su Ze chuckled, this old man is really straightforward.Hastily took out the drawings drawn in advance from the pocket of his clothes, and spread them carefully on the table.

"Actually, I just want to trouble you to pack something for me."
