Chapter 19 Hibiscus Out of Water
Yun Qichen paused his hands, tapped his fan again, and asked, "Where did he go?"
"I don't know." The child shook his head.
"Let's go home, he will definitely go home to announce the good news after the exam."
The child said speculatively.
Yun Qichen nodded thoughtfully, and said, "You don't even know where he is from."
"He promised you to come back?" Yun Qichen asked.
The child didn't speak, but Yun Qichen felt that he was right when he looked at him.
Yun Qichen shook his fan slowly, and said, "Do you have a place to live?"
The child looked like a fool, and said, "Then why don't I sleep on the street with Zhang Sheng?"
Yun Qichen closed his mouth and said, "Why don't you find a regular job?"
The child sneered and said, "Do you dare? I'll do it for you."
The child said mockingly: "Thiefs will not be accepted."
Yun Qichen saw the sadness of a 14-year-old in his 40-year-old eyes. The things in this world have never been extra kind to anyone, nor will they be extra merciful.
As they walked, they came to a house.
The house is not small, and the child took out the key to enter.
"Come in. What are you doing?" The child let Yun Qichen in.
"This is your house?"
Yun Qichen never thought that this brat would have such a big house.
The child knew he was surprised, but he didn't have much emotion, probably because many people have been so surprised before.
Yun Qichen went inside and took a sip of free water.Except for the one he lived in, the others seemed to have not been cleaned for a long time. The house was too big for him to clean it himself.
Yun Qichen looked around, and when he entered the bedroom, he was attracted by the painting hanging by the bed.
"Don't just go into other people's bedrooms, don't you know?"
Yun Qichen didn't answer: "You drew this?"
"Zhang Sheng."
Zhang Sheng?Yun Qichen approached and took a closer look. This work is not bad, it looks like a lotus flower.
Looking to the side, Yun Qichen frowned, and gently stroked the poem.A branch of hibiscus comes out of the Xiangshui River, and it is always sunny and full of flowers.
This handwriting... Yun Qichen recalled what was left of the scroll he saw in the old man's dead son's room that night. The handwriting on it was very similar to the handwriting of the two poems in front of him.
The child didn't know what Yun Qichen was looking at, and thought he was admiring the beauty of the painting.
Showing off proudly: "Isn't Zhang Sheng's calligraphy and painting beautiful?"
Yun Qichen nodded and said, "It's really beautiful."
Yun Qichen didn't ask the old man what his son's name was at that place, if it was really him that this brat met, then maybe...
Yun Qichen still wanted to ask Huairou what he meant, but he also had some plans in mind.
After staying here for a while, Yun Qichen said that he should go.
The children were not sent far.
After Yun Qichen left, he paced slowly on the street. Anyway, he didn't have any money on him, and he couldn't buy anything.It's not bad to go shopping.It doesn't matter if you walk around, you just walk to the door of the pharmacy.
Yun Qichen frowned, "How did you come here? Could it be that you are addicted to medicine..."
Yun Qichen waved his fan to smell the smell of medicine, turned around and planned to leave.
Turning around, Yun Qichen saw two familiar figures.Yun Qichen looked carefully, isn't it the old man and the aunt?
Yun Qichen hurried forward to meet him, "Old man, aunt."
The old man didn't expect to meet Yun Qichen here, so he said very kindly, "My lord, why did I meet you here?"
Yun Qichen nodded and said, "We found an inn here to rest."
"I'm ashamed to say that yesterday's lantern show was late, and Ah Rou and I didn't sleep." Yun Qichen said embarrassedly, "I can only stay here for one more night."
The old man nodded after hearing this, and said, "I'll show her her legs."
The old man gestured to the aunt, and Yun Qichen noticed that the aunt was unhappy.
The old man patted her on the shoulder.
"It just happened to go to a hotel after seeing the illness." The old man said.
Yun Qichen suddenly thought, the shopkeeper said that the hotel is gone.Yun Qichen thought for a while and said: "The hotel probably has no vacancies, otherwise, you should take a look first, and I will take you to a place after reading."
Yun Qichen couldn't help thinking of that child, and thought to himself, it seems that this time he can't ask Ah Rou first.
The old man naturally trusted Yun Qichen, nodded, and led the aunt into the medical clinic.
Yun Qichen followed behind and went in. The medical clinic is not big, but there are quite a lot of patients.
Yun Qichen talked to a person who was queuing up to get medicine, and asked him why there are so many people here, isn't there a big medical center?
The man waved his hand and said, "Oh, the Great Medical Center is now used by the county lord, so we can't grab him."
Yun Qichen frowned, it was the county master again.
"But the doctors in this clinic are better than those there. I've always loved coming here."
Yun Qichen nodded perfunctorily, and the uncle and aunt had already lined up to go in.
Yun Qichen sat outside and waited.
I don't know where the county master came from, why didn't he say a good word to him.
Yun Qichen couldn't figure it out, if a county magistrate couldn't get the recognition of the people, wouldn't it be a failure?
Yun Qichen sat here and waited for a while, then the inside came out.
"How's it going?" Yun Qichen went up to him and asked.
"The doctor said, it can be cured." The old man looked at Yun Qichen with a smile.
The aunt said: "What are you doing with all this wronged money? It's better to save it for your retirement."
The old man smiled and told Yun Qichen that she was like this.
So the two finished grabbing the medicine and followed Yun Qichen to the residence.
Yun Qichen turned around and turned into the gate of the child's house, and said, "It's never been so difficult to walk before."
Knocking on the door, it was still the face of a child.
"What's the matter?" The child glanced at Yun Qichen, and then saw two old people behind him.
Yun Qichen opened the door and said, "Let us go in first. What a joke inside and outside the door."
The child sneered, and said, "Don't you think that you came to me because... huh?"
Yun Qichen tried a little bit to open the door, and said, "Quan Dang do me a favor, do you want to make money?"
The child was skeptical, he always felt that this person was more wicked than himself, and said, "What's the matter?"
As soon as Yun Qichen heard him ask this question, he knew that this matter was discussed, and said: "I have two old friends, the Lantern Festival Inn is full, let them stay here for a few days?"
The child wanted to close the door without even thinking about it, but Yun Qichen quickly blocked the door and said, "Ten taels."
"thirty."
"Why are you still sitting on the ground and raising the price?"
"It's much better than blackmailing you." The child sneered.
"...Success!" Yun Qichen gritted his teeth and agreed.
The child also nodded and opened the door.
Yun Qichen thought, never thought that one day he would be tricked by a child.
Two old people walked in, Yun Qichen originally wanted to introduce, but before Yun Qichen asked the child's name, he was here.
The child said impatiently: "Qiao Fan"
Joe bother?When Yun Qichen heard the name, he immediately felt that it suited his temperament.
"This is Uncle Zhang, call someone." Yun Qichen said.
The old man didn't notice anything wrong, and said, "Baby, my old lady and I are here to trouble you for two days."
The child nodded in agreement, but didn't call anyone.Yun Qichen smiled and said nothing.
After the decision was made, Yun Qichen helped them tidy up a room before it was over.Before leaving, he said that he would bring Xie Yi to see them when he had time.
The author has something to say: Well... a branch of hibiscus grows out of the Xiangshui River, and the flowers are always blooming when it is sunny.The writing is a bit rough, but do you see any difference?
