Chapter 8 Live Well(1/2)

After sending Zhao Youcai and others away, Zhao Ce let out a long sigh.

The mess left behind by the original owner was done one after another.

The whole day hadn't even passed, and he was very tired.

Zhao Ce's mind is in a mess now, thinking about the glorious past of the original owner.

He rubbed his eyebrows.

I remembered that there was a little pitiful person waiting for me behind.

Zhao Ce closed the door and walked to the backyard.

There was already a lot of dirty laundry in the tub on the patio.

Where the clothes were hung, his quilt was still hanging out.

But the little girl was not seen.

There were some small noises in the room, and Zhao Ce walked directly over there.

The door of the room was wide open, and Zhao Ce, who was afraid of mosquitoes, knocked on the door and then walked in.

Everything in the house has been tidied up.

The little girl was standing in front of the suitcase, helping him fold all the clothes inside neatly.

On one of the stools, there was a tattered little bundle.

I guess this was what the little girl was carrying when I brought her back yesterday.

The baggage was so small that Zhao Ce suspected that it contained only a replacement set of tattered clothes.

Su Cai'er heard a knock on the door and turned around to see Zhao Ce.

I was about to call me husband.

Then I remembered that I would have to leave sooner or later.

Her big eyes drooped with sadness.

Zhao Ce sat at the table in his room, knocked on the table, and asked, "Your name is Su Caier?"

Su Cai'er said "hmm" and silently put the clothes in her hands away.

He closed the suitcase lightly and walked slowly to Zhao Ce.

This little girl is stunted, even though she is almost sixteen years old.

He's really not that tall.

Standing, he is about the same height as Zhao Ce sitting on the stool.

Standing in front of him like this, only the two white tips of his ears were left.

Zhao Ce took a look and looked away.

"I ask you questions and you answer them honestly, okay?"

Su Cai'er had no objection and nodded her little head.

Zhao Ce then asked: "Will your eyes affect your ability to see?"

The little head shook.

He seemed to feel that this was not good, and he said in a low voice with frustration, "It won't affect me."

Zhao Ce pointed to the robe he was wearing and asked her: "What color is this?"

Su Cai'er raised her eyelids and took a look.

I don’t understand why my husband suddenly asked me about the color of my clothes.

"Is it... cyan?"

Zhao Ce also looked down.

This robe looks brand new. It was probably worn by the original owner for a visit to a brothel.

A new robe specially bought.

This is a very common robe worn by scholars in the Ming Dynasty. It is bright blue.

It can also be considered cyan.

Zhao Ce said: "Not bad."

It seems that this vision is indeed not affected.

Zhao Ce also breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't mean to discriminate.

My legs and feet are a little better, at least they don't affect my daily life.

If there is still a problem with this vision, this little girl will be in a terrible situation.

After hearing what Zhao Ce said, Su Caier blinked her eyes in confusion.

But thinking about her own eyes, she lowered her eyes in shame.

Su Cai'er whispered: "The clothes are all folded."

"There is no new quilt cover. My husband will use it tonight."

"When your husband gets up tomorrow, I will take it off and wash it with his dirty clothes."

"Then......"

Su Cai'er took a deep breath and smiled slightly at Zhao Ce.

"After washing tomorrow, I will leave."

Zhao Ce looked at her sad face, with the words "I don't want to leave" written all over her face.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"Let's go? Where?"

"You're about to leave, do you still have to help me with my work?"

Su Cai'er thought, her husband knew that she was leaving, so he smiled so happily.

Sure enough, my choice was the right one.

My husband is a scholar and it’s hard to shame yourself into leaving alone.

But he is a good person, so he cannot let anything bad happen to him because of him.

"When I came back yesterday, I saw there were mountains nearby."

"I'll go find a cave to live in the mountains."

At this time, Zhao Ce, who didn't know that he had silently swallowed the "good guy card", raised his eyebrows.

"Cave?"

"There are not only wolves in the mountains, but also big insects."

"With your small body, a big insect can bite you in one bite."

"Aren't you afraid?"

After Zhao Ce finished speaking, the little girl trembled with fear.

She hesitated and said: "I, I don't have meat, it doesn't taste good."

"Big bug..."

"Big bugs can eat meaty animals!"

Zhao Ce couldn't help but laugh again.

I had just been in the hall with Zhao Youcai and others for so long, and I was really tired.

But now that I am teasing this little girl, I feel a lot more relaxed.

But this little girl is too timid and cannot be teased too much.

Zhao Ce said: "In this case, then don't leave."

"I spent money to marry you back. Although Geng Tie hasn't been registered with the Yamen yet, we can still be considered husband and wife."

"Since we are husband and wife, this is your home."

"Stay in peace."

After Zhao Ce finished speaking, the little girl's head suddenly lifted up.

Those eyes looked at him brightly.

"Can I really stay?"

"But my eyes..."
