Chapter 142
"It seems that you still remember me," Gu Wenheng saw the child's pupils shrank, and guessed it immediately.
Xiaodongzi held the clothes in his hand, nodded stiffly, he still remembered that the young lady gave him some food.
"where is your family?"
Xiaodongzi's voice was hoarse, "It's gone, it's gone."
Uncle Hu, who has been raising him all the time, finally failed to survive the cold winter and fell down in that ruined temple forever.
Without Uncle Hu, he couldn't even keep his only shelter, the ruined temple.
He dare not stay in the county now, for fear that seeing those who have families, relatives, and friends will make him feel even more lonely.
Sitting under this icy city wall, he could at least feel that the world was as cold as his heart, and this was his destination.
Gu Wenheng saw that he had the will to die, so he squatted down and looked at him at the same level, "From the moment a person comes into this world, he must learn to bear pain. Some words are suitable for rotten in the heart, and some pain are suitable for silently forgetting.
There is no luck or misfortune in this world. All the pain and joy are the judgments of your own heart.
You have struggled in this world for so many years, do you just want to let go?
Ask yourself, are you willing? "
Xiao Dongzi looked up at Gu Wenheng, "So what if you are not willing? Like me, either become a beggar, or sell yourself into slavery? Can I choose?"
Gu Wenheng sighed, there are many situations like this child in front of him, "Even if he is a slave or a beggar, at least he did not come to this world for nothing.
Forget it, we two are destined, get up and follow me! "
Gu Wenheng felt the bitter cold wind at the gate of the city, and wrapped his clothes even tighter.
Looking at the other party's thin clothes, it is estimated that they should rely on the things in their arms to keep warm.
"Where are you going? I won't sell myself." This was his last stubbornness. He told Uncle Hu before that he would not go his way, let alone sell himself as a slave.
At the same time, I was wondering whether if I had listened to Uncle Hu's words, could I have stolen medical expenses and food to feed my hunger, so that Uncle Hu would not have to lie in the ruined temple cold, hungry, and in pain.
"Don't sell yourself, didn't you say you can drive a car before? Come to my house and be a coachman."
Seeing that the other party hadn't moved, Gu Wenheng couldn't help frowning, "Why? Don't you want to?"
Xiaodongzi shook his head stiffly, and said with some guilt, "My feet seem to be frozen and I can't move."
Gu Wenheng, "..."

Gu Wenheng took the man to the shop and threw him in a side room, and found him a suit of clothes, "Fire the kang by yourself, and you will live here temporarily in the future."
Looking at the skinny child, Gu Wenheng couldn't help frowning and asked, "How old are you?"
Xiaodongzi, "I'm probably thirteen or fourteen years old."
Jin Qianqian, "No specific birthday?"
Xiaodongzi shook his head, "Uncle Hu picked me up on the side of the road, he has always been in a muddle, and he doesn't remember when he picked me up.
But he said I should be thirteen or fourteen years old. "
"This is still a child laborer!" Gu Wenheng rubbed his chin. Although there is no such thing as a child laborer, it seems a little uncomfortable to let such a young child do things.
Jin Qianqian, "Why don't you let him stay in the store for a while, there is no such thing as child labor here.
Look at those children born in the family, and those personal guards, which one was not cultivated since childhood? "
Gu Wenheng stared at Xiaodongzi for a while, watched him hide in a corner, and then pulled Jin Qianqian and turned around to go out.
"It seems that we need to change our thinking," Gu Wenheng tapped the table with two fingers, "We can go to the prostitute's place to find some children who are not too old or too young. In the future, our family will also need to add staff, and we need someone for other chores." Cuisine."
Gu Wenheng grabbed Jin Qianqian's hand and flipped it over and over again, "Now we have a better life, and it's time to buy some people back."
Jin Qianqian was silent for a while, "Then don't pick those young ones too much, those young girls, I'm afraid I won't be too embarrassed to handle them."
This will always require a transition period, although it is not stupid enough to talk about equality with the people of the dynasty, but she can't accept it in her heart when she sees a child of a few years scrambling to do things in front of her all day long.
Gu Wenheng patted her head, "We all have to get used to it in the future, and if I prepare for the Juren examination next year, the book boy should also be prepared."
"Then what should he do?" Jin Qianqian pointed to the room where Xiaodongzi was, "He doesn't want to sell himself as a slave, shall we hire him like Sister-in-law Xiang?"
Gu Wenheng, "He told me at our door before that he could drive a car, let him try it first!"
"Could it be too thin? I'm afraid he won't be able to pull the rein." The road was already slippery in the ice and snow, and Jin Qianqian's first reaction was to refuse to entrust his life to such a child.
Gu Wenheng, "I will follow outside to watch for a few days. This kid should have a lot of self-esteem. If he is not allowed to do things, it probably won't work."

"Father, what did you ask me for?" As soon as Lu Ping entered the living room, he sat directly opposite Lu Tongzhi.
"Are you messing around outside again these days? You don't come home all day long. If I hadn't asked your mother to leave a message with you, wouldn't I still not be able to see you today?" Lu Tongzhi pointed at his son and preached.
Lu Ping, "Look at what dad said, I'm not busy with business.
This prince Bai sent invitations to our brothers to celebrate his being canonized as Marquis of Wu'an.
For such an important event, we have to prepare gifts in advance.
If the things are poor at that time, wouldn't it be a joke for everyone. "
"This Prince Bai also invited you to a banquet?"
"That's not true, anyway, we also went out of the city to fight wolves together, so there is still some friendship.
how about it?Your son is not fooling around, is he? "
Lu Tongzhi said, "This has nothing to do with me, besides, your mother must have taken the money you asked for.
But I can tell you, if you are walking outside these days, you'd better be honest with me, don't squeeze into crowded places, and don't be fooled into corners by fools. "
Lu Ping sat up straight, "Father, you asked me to come here to talk about this? I'm not a three-year-old child, and I know how to take care of myself."
After finishing speaking, he wanted to stand up and leave, but Lu Tongzhi patted the table, "I'm not doing this for your own good. If you don't pay attention during this time, a daughter-in-law will fall from the sky, don't blame me for not reminding you."
"Heh, can a daughter-in-law still fall from the sky?" Lu Ping said with a teasing expression on his face, "Then those bachelors snatched it away a long time ago. When will you get me?"
"Don't fool around here, shall I tell you the truth now? You know Mrs. Xiao's daughter."
"I know! I've seen it from afar, but what do they have to do with this matter?" Lu Ping disliked his father's closeness the most. Wouldn't it be nice for a big man to speak up?I have to hesitate here.
