Early the next morning, Lao Niu's barber shop opened its doors and put up a "normal business" sign.
Then he sat at the door and peeled peas, which was his lunch. As for breakfast, he cooked a bowl of wontons and ate them.
The first business of the day didn't come until ten o'clock in the morning, when an old man came to get a haircut.
Lao Niu operated skillfully and chatted with the other party at the same time.
This is the old man from Huangjia Village, I know him.
"Go get a towel." Lao Niu said suddenly while getting a haircut.
The old man on the chair was stunned for a moment and asked: "Are you talking about me?"
Lao Niu reacted, looked around, and landed on the corner of the sofa. Wan Xiaohu usually stayed there quietly, but today it was empty.
Wan Xiaohu was sent to an orphanage by him!
"I'll get a towel." Lao Niu said.
Normally Wan Xiaohu would help him fight.
This morning, Lao Niu forgot the fact that Wan Xiaohu had left several times and called him to help get things.
Business was very good today. People came into the store one after another without stopping until 1:30 noon. He took the time to cook and eat.
Halfway through the meal, another person came into the shop to get a haircut.
Lao Niu put down his bowl and chopsticks and wiped his mouth. It was important to give the customer a haircut first.
At this time, his cell phone rang. He was busy washing the customer's hair and did not answer it, but the phone rang over and over again. Even the customer couldn't bear it and asked him to answer the phone first.
Lao Niu put down the hair clippers and saw an unfamiliar mobile phone number. After connecting, the other party introduced that it was from the orphanage.
Wan Xiaohu had a fight in the orphanage and asked him to take Wan Xiaohu back.
Lao Niu didn't believe that Wan Xiaohu could fight. With his soft character, he would only be bullied and would not take the initiative to hit others.
After hanging up the phone, Lao Niu didn't say whether he wanted to answer the call.
He continued to cut the guest's hair, but accidentally touched the guest's scalp, and the guest grinned.
Lao Niu quickly apologized and quickly collected his thoughts, and helped the other party cut it without asking for money.
Another person came into the store...
In the evening, Zhang Tan took Xiaobai and went to the orphanage to visit Wan Xiaohu.
Xiaobai holds a cloth tiger in his arms, which is a gift for Wan Xiaohu.
They are all tiger cubs, so I gave them a cloth tiger.
At this time, no children from Little Red Horse Academy had arrived yet, so Zhang Tan and Xiao Bai set off.
They found the orphanage and expressed their intention to come, but the person in charge told them that Wan Xiaohu was no longer in the orphanage.
At the same time, Tan Xier's child had dinner and walked to the Little Red Horse accompanied by her sister.
She was carrying a small schoolbag. There were homework books and pencils in the small schoolbag. Her sister asked her not to take these. There is no homework in kindergarten.
But Xi'er insisted on bringing her with her. Although she didn't have any homework, Xiaobai did. She wanted to accompany Xiaobai to do his homework, so she had to do all the pretense.
When the two passed by the barber shop, Xi'er felt guilty. Last night, she smashed the door of the shop with pebbles. She didn't know if she would be discovered and then arrested.
Xi'er walked around to the other side of Tan Jin'er, not close to the barber shop, and lowered her head, taking small steps in a hurry, timid and full of a sense of justice.
"Xiaohu~~bring a towel~~~"
Suddenly, Lao Niu's cry came from the barber shop. Xi'er was excited, let out a sigh, and looked over from her sister's feet.
"Wan Xiaohu~~~" Xi'er said crisply, rubbing her eyes, a little unbelievable, why Wan Xiaohu came back again.
When Wan Xiaohu heard her shout, he bared his teeth and smiled at her, then trotted and gave the towel to Lao Niu.
"It's Wan Xiaohu who's back~" Xi'er said happily to her sister, jumping up and down the road. After she returned to Little Red Horse, she immediately told the children the good news.
The little magpie always brings good news. The children are very excited and quickly gather in the yard to visit Wan Xiaohu.
Luliu ran out with a handful of plastic gold hoops, but was disarmed by Xiaomi the next second.
When Dudu saw this, he quickly threw away the small shovel in his hand and took the initiative to explain: "It was the pomegranate that was stuffed to me."
Liliu: "..."
The number of times I betrayed my friends for glory finally began to suffer backlash.
Wan Xiaohu was picked up by Lao Niu again. This child was bullied in the orphanage, his nose was broken, and he had a lot of nosebleeds.
Lao Niu thought he was just a doormat, but he didn't expect that this little guy either didn't take action or was unambiguous when he did.
When someone broke his nose, he bit someone else's hand.
Lao Niu rushed to the orphanage and saw his miserable appearance. He only said: "Come with me? Life will be very hard."
Wan Xiaohu followed him back without saying a word.
The cloth tiger that Xiaobai didn't give away could be given away this time, and he handed it to Wan Xiaohu personally.
And Lao Niu was finally no longer resented by the children, and every mouthful of Grandpa Niu screamed happily.
"Do you want to cut your hair? Cut your hair before leaving." Lao Niu said.
Xi'er was the first one to run away holding her little head in her arms.
Only she knew how ugly her godfather's hair style was, and she would never get a haircut at Grandpa Niu's place.
When the other children saw this, they thought it was not a haircut, but a haircut, and they all ran away with their heads in their hands in fright.
Soon, Wan Xiaohu was the only friend left in the barber shop.
Lao Niu didn't even intend to let him go, and said: "Your hair is very long too. Come on, there is no one around right now. Sit on the chair and give you a haircut."
Wan Xiaohu was startled and grimaced. It seemed that Grandpa Niu didn't ask him to sit on a chair, but asked him to stand on the guillotine.
Lao Niu: "What? You don't want to?"
My cooking skills are actually looked down upon by the children. My uncle can tolerate it, but my aunt can't! Why don't I send him back to the orphanage?
Wan Xiaohu quickly bared his teeth and smiled fawningly, hugged Buhu, sat on the barber chair obediently, looked at himself in the mirror and muttered.
"What? I didn't hear clearly." Lao Niu said.
Wan Xiaohu said: "I don't want to be bald~"
He found that Grandpa Niu was cutting hair, either short or bald.
"Okay, I'll give you a fashionable haircut and put down the cloth tiger. You're not a girl. Why are you holding the cloth tiger all day long?"
Lao Niu's hair cutting skills are excellent, but his research on hair styles is behind the trend and not fashionable enough, so young people nearby are not willing to come to his place. Only people of the same age and older will patronize.
He gave Wan Xiaohu a short haircut and praised Wan Xiaohu's round head, which was very suitable for a bald head.
This frightened Wan Xiaohu and waved his hands quickly.
After cutting his hair, Wan Xiaohu took the initiative to pick up the broom and sweep up the broken hair on the floor.
The old cow scooped up two spoonfuls of rice, washed it and put it into the rice cooker to cook. Then he took the vegetable basket and started peeling peas in preparation for dinner.
After sweeping the floor, taking out the garbage, and peeling Lao Niu's peas, he stood up, looked at the bustling West Chang'an Street, and then at the fireworks-filled Huangjia Village, then returned home and closed the rolling door.
, the day's work is over for him, and next is his own interest time.
The old man and the young man had dinner. Lao Niu threw an old book to Wan Xiaohu, while he lay under the lamp and continued writing unknown stories.
Wan Xiaohu picked up the old book with a smile on his face. This time it was not a magazine for adults, but a fairy tale book.
The room fell into silence. One was writing furiously, with gray hair, and the other was concentrating on reading, with a childish face. Under the pale yellow light, they were exceptionally harmonious.
