Chapter 74
Seeing that this man was dumb, Da Lang felt a lot of emotion in his heart, felt sorry for him more and more, wished to thank him, and didn't think he was dirty, so he grabbed his hand and said, "My whole family is grateful for your kindness." Come on, come back with me."
The mute suddenly changed color, exerted force suddenly, not only withdrew his hand, but also led Da Lang into a somersault.
Da Lang was caught off guard, and sat on the ground with a plop. No one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.Da Lang is honest and honest by nature, he only said that beggars are cautious and not annoyed, he patted his buttocks and stood up by himself, but this time he stood where he was and said, "Don't be afraid, my family really just wants to thank you in person , otherwise, we are all sorry."
The dumb face was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Da Lang talked for a long time from the side, and he finally nodded.
When Dalang saw this, he immediately laughed silly, thinking that the matter was finally done, he pointed to the door and said, "There is a car at the door, you can go back with me."
The two of them came out one after the other, but fortunately the coachman still had a conscience, and he never left. From a distance, he saw Bai Dalang following behind him, it was so dark that he couldn't see what it was like, so he couldn't help feeling nervous, and muttered to himself. There was really someone, and when the other person approached, he realized that it was a sloppy beggar, and he was relieved instead.
When the coachman saw Bai Dalang beaming, he knew he had found someone, but he didn't know what he was looking for with a beggar, but he didn't ask, and hurriedly greeted him: "Come up quickly, it's getting dark."
When Da Lang climbed into the car, the dumb man struggled a bit. Only then did the former notice that his legs and feet seemed to be weak, and sighed for his pity.
After the two sat down, the coachman raised his whip and drove the cart. The road was considered remote, and the simple donkey cart was jolting to pieces. Finally, before it was completely dark, they passed the West Street. The winding lights on both sides reflected the sky. Bright red.
The Bai family had cooked the meal, and they were just waiting for Da Lang to come back. Originally, they didn't expect anything, but now, they heard an excited voice from outside the door, "Open the door, open the door, we found it!"
The aunt was overjoyed, she stood up abruptly, and then realized that she was being too aggressive, so she immediately shrugged and stared at the door panel with her eyes.
Bai Xin went to open the door, and saw his eldest brother standing at the door, with a figure behind him hidden in the darkness.
Dalang couldn't help but dragged him in. Bai Xin couldn't help but wondered if he could find the right person, so he looked him up and down, and saw that the person was about the same height as his elder brother, but was extremely thin, covered in rags and messy hair Like hay, the chin is full of stubble, as soon as it gets close, a sour smell immediately hits the nostrils, but the eyes are as open and upright as the elder sister said, and the common saying is that the eyes are the seedlings of the heart, I just feel this person Although it is sloppy, but after meeting the eyes, it will not make a bad impression on people.
The aunt couldn't sit still for a long time, she looked out frequently, but she could only see a vague outline, but she couldn't see the face clearly. She didn't know if the elder brother was looking for the right one, and she felt like a hundred claws scratching her heart.
Bai Xin hurriedly crossed his hands, and subconsciously led him into the room without saying anything else.
The mute had been hungry for a day, and when he smelled the aroma of the food, his stomach began to growl instinctively. His face was slightly red, and he pressed his stomach without any trace.
The aunt only took one look, and immediately recognized this man as the man who silently retreated from the ruined temple that night, with a happy expression on her face, she hurriedly nodded to her eldest brother and third brother, walked over and bowed, "Thank you for your kindness that day. "
The mute was a little embarrassed, and crossed his hands.
After the aunt finished speaking, her eyes turned red, obviously remembering what happened that day.
Cao Shi and Man Niang also shed some tears and stood up to worship.
When the mute saw the aunt, he realized that this family really came to thank him. At that time, he only had a quick glance in the temple, and the other party was curled up again, as if he were a little girl of eleven or twelve. Green dress, only to realize that the little lady is already in the year of jasper, dare not take a closer look, and hastily lowered her head.
Bai Xin saw this person's reaction in his eyes. He noticed the concern on the elder sister's face, and he paid special attention to this person in his heart.
The Bai family said they wanted to thank this man, originally they wanted to give some money, but now that it was getting late, they brought him from the Earth Temple to the city, and there was nowhere to settle him for a while, and they couldn't let him live at home. The whole family was embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, my family is also acting recklessly. I just want to thank you, but I haven't drawn up a charter. There are many girls in the family. It is really inconvenient to stay with you. I will go to the street to find a place for you. Arrange food and accommodation, and thank you tomorrow, how about you?"
The man nodded and shook his head again.
Bai Xin was puzzled, Da Lang stood up and whispered: "He is dumb."
The aunt couldn't help covering her mouth, and looked at the man with more concern.
Bai Xin felt a little grudged in his heart, so he repeated the words again.
The man nodded slowly at first, and when Bai Xin said he was looking for the mansion, he shook his head, pointed to his chest, and then made a walking motion with his right hand.
Bai Xin guessed and guessed, guessing that this person meant to thank him for accepting it, and there was no need for arranging board and lodging, he was leaving.
Bai Xin sighed, didn't know whether to say that this person was a high-minded person or what, and persuaded him: "It's late today, we brought you from the west of the city, if we ignore it, you won't even have a place to live, why? Are you really allowed to leave like this?"
The aunt also guessed what the man meant, so she couldn't speak to persuade him to stay, so she had to nod repeatedly to echo Bai Xin's words.
The dumb man finally nodded his head when he saw that the hospitality was hard to refuse. Bai Xin immediately took out some money, took the man away, found a place for him nearby, and ordered a table of food. He wanted to chat for a while, just to test it out, but This man was dumb and could only nod and shake his head. Bai Xin couldn't find out why, so he had to sit for a while and then left.
When Bai Xin returned home, the elder sister hurriedly asked, "Is it arranged?"
"It's all arranged."
"Look at him dressed in rags. Fortunately, it is summer now. If it catches up with winter, he will freeze to death. Let's buy him some clothes tomorrow... I originally said I would give him some money, but sooner or later the money will be spent. How about Just follow the third brother's other method, let him buy some rouge and powder, and it won't be a problem to get enough food and clothing." The eldest sister muttered to herself again, she didn't realize it herself, her concern was too obvious.
Mrs. Cao is a mother. I already have guesses, and I can't help worrying. I can't eat anymore. "Ma'am, don't forget, he is dumb, so he can't sell."
The aunt's words stopped abruptly, and then she became frowning again.
Bai Xin was really having a headache, that man was dumb, so he couldn't sell the goods naturally, and he couldn't think of any other way to thank him besides giving money. Could it be that he really wanted to "promise with his body"?Although at first glance, he is indeed of good character, but after all he has never gotten along with him, Bai Xin is still not at ease. Besides, he is dumb. Even though the eldest sister is a bit old, he still wants to find a perfect husband for her.
"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow. Let's ask the man what he means first. I think his behavior is weird. We have made arrangements, and he may not be happy."
Everyone has their own concerns, and the meal is a bit tasteless.
The next day, Bai Xin asked to set up a stall, so he had to let the elder brother take the money to buy two sets of clothes for the man, and it was better to make a side note.
Da Lang is sincere, he will not make insinuations, but instead speaks out his original plan.
The man knew that he was dumb and couldn't even do hawking, so naturally he couldn't sell goods, his eyes darkened, and he shook his head bitterly.
In the evening, when Bai Xin came back early, Da Lang also brought the mute back. Bai Xin didn't recognize him anymore. After washing and changing into new clothes, the man became radiant, with sword-like eyebrows and star-eyed eyes, and tough features. He was actually a handsome man. man.
The Bai family was taken aback, and the aunt blushed even more when she saw it, and hid behind her back.
Bai Xin thought to himself that the elder sister had already cared about her, and if this would send her away, she would be saddened. He wanted to match up, but he always cared that the other party was dumb. Let our whole family admire you. I don’t know why you are in trouble. If you are trapped in the capital and have no money to go back to your hometown, my family can help you a little bit. If you still want to stay in the capital, I will find some work for you. Do you want to?”
The dumb compared himself, shook his head, and then he mouthed the word "home", and Bai Xin connected them together to get the answer "I don't have a home".
After confirming, Bai Xin asked again, "I don't know if I can find some work for you, would you like it?"
The mute thought it was a matter of selling goods, his expression was a little stiff, and he pointed to his throat.
Bai Xin understood, and said again: "It's not that I'm going to sell goods on the street. You see, my family is also doing some small businesses, and it's getting a little too busy. If you don't mind, you can stay at my house to help during the day. I wonder if you want to?"
Everyone shouted, Cao Shi wanted to refute, and asked Bai Xin to calm him down with his eyes.
The mute couldn't believe it. He secretly glanced at everyone, then nodded heavily, as a response.
Bai Xin added, "But my family doesn't have any spare room, so I have to find a place for you alone."
The dumb heard that he was still in control, and immediately felt embarrassed, and gestured a few words with his mouth. Bai Xin didn't understand, and the dumb was a little anxious. He pointed to the outside while still lip-syncing. A word, but I really can't figure out what it said.
The mute no longer tried to lip-sync, but drew a roof shape with both hands, then closed his eyes and pretended to be sleeping, and finally patted his chest. Bai Xin could barely guess that he meant that he could find a place to sleep.
After the discussion, the mute left in a hurry, and Bai Xin didn't know where he went.
Seeing that he was gone, Mrs. Cao immediately muttered, "It's really inconvenient to keep him at home during the day when our family's children are absent. No way, you will send him away tomorrow."
This Bai Xin also thought of it a long time ago, but he shook his head, "Let the eldest brother stay at home in the future."
Da Lang was taken aback, thinking that he didn't sell well, and immediately became uneasy.
Dalang has a clumsy mouth and clumsy cheeks. He is really not suitable for selling goods. He still stays in the busy area, and his sales are not as good as those of the street vendors. Bai Xin doesn't blame him, but comforts him: "Our business is getting better and better. Sooner or later It is also necessary to hire people, instead of hiring others, it is better to let the eldest brother watch at home, the more incense products are made every day, and naturally you can make more money, at worst, I will hire some shopkeepers."
After Da Lang heard this, Fang no longer blamed himself so much, and patted his chest, "Brother has strength, I will make more for you at home."
Mrs. Cao still disagreed, "That man doesn't know where he came from, what if we tell him to steal our balm recipe?"
Bai Xin smiled and said: "Mother, according to what you said, then all those who do business should not hire people. Besides, the few things I made are not complicated. Anyone who has some skills can buy them when they go home. Research it."
Bai Xin has never told his family that in fact, there have been soap balls and rouge creams similar to his in various places, and the business will be affected to some extent, but because he named "Tianxiangtang" in advance, he knows It is the first one, so overall the impact is not big.
Mrs. Cao was speechless, so she had to compromise temporarily, but secretly vowed to keep an eye on the mute, and if there was anything wrong, she would be caught.
