Picking up a greedy snake [Liao Zhai]

In the end, Gu Huai was no match for the Siberian Husky's coquettishness, so he had no choice but to take him on the road together.

The master and the servant sat in the cabin, chatting with the boatman one after another, while the husky was wagging its tail joyfully beside Gu Huai, turning around, hanging out its long tongue, and licking him from time to time. hands, as if the energy will never run out.

He held the dog's face, pinched the soft skin on its lower jaw, tugged it lightly, then turned his head and said to Fu An with a smile, "What name do you want to name this dog?"

Fu An yawned listlessly and said, "You can figure it out yourself."

"I think it's Xiaoqing," Gu Huai called happily while rubbing the husky's neck, "Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing..."

The dog barked twice as if he understood, and flicked its tail excitedly.

Fu An looked away helplessly.He has never been interested in creatures like dogs. In his opinion, animals are animals. Compared with the life and death of those cats and dogs, he cares more about how much salary he can get this month.

It's just that his young master wants to keep a dog, and he doesn't object. Dogs are no better than snakes. As for dogs, it's fine if they get annoyed and kicked up.He is not afraid of dogs, he knows that dogs are bullying by nature, and he is sure and capable of scaring barking dogs into trembling.

In his opinion, things like snakes are truly terrifying, and they usually lie there coldly, looking at him lazily, thinking about how to rush up and bite off a piece of his flesh anytime, anywhere. .

Therefore, after having the shadow of getting along with Er Qing, Fu An felt that he was really grateful to God when he recalled that Huai raised a dog.

Gu Huai called out the name "Xiaoqing", and another figure couldn't help appearing in front of his eyes. His voice became smaller and smaller, and finally a little choked up.

He stopped his movements slowly and lowered his head. Although the corners of his mouth were still raised and there was still a smile on his face, his eyes were already stained with unresolved sadness and heartache.

The huskies seemed to be affected by Gu Huai's emotions, and they stopped making noise, lying on the ground and looking up at Gu Huai with their eyelids raised.

"The color of this dog's coat is really nice." The stout and strong boatman looked back at them and said.

This was the first time the boatman had spoken on his own initiative since they got on the boat.Before, they were the ones who asked a question, and the boatman answered, with a very dull tone and expression.

Gu Huai was taken aback for a moment, then smiled kindly and said, "That's right."

"Oh, our young master is kind-hearted, so he likes to take in these animals that have nowhere to go. You don't know, our young master adopted a snake from the mountains last time, but it scared me." Fu An continued in an exaggerated tone. .

The boatman stopped talking and continued to row his boat, his hands on the oars trembling slightly.

Fu'an's chatterbox opened up. Although no one paid any attention to him, he still said to himself: "Actually, this dog was picked up by the young master just now. We saw a few men surrounding this dog and wanted to kill it. My young master I was kind enough to buy it.”

"Buy it?"

"No, I gave a few of them a silver ticket of 50 taels..."

Gu Huai coughed twice, and shouted, "Fu'an, go get me the kettle over there, I'm a little thirsty."

Fu An's words were interrupted in the middle, and a displeased expression appeared on his face.But after all, he didn't dare to disobey Gu Huai's order, obediently walked to the other side of the cabin, took the water bottle and handed it to Gu Huai, looking a bit reluctant.

Gu Huai took the water bottle from Fu'an, didn't drink it, and put it aside.

The boatman's dull and hoarse voice sounded again: "This young man is really generous. It looks like he is from a wealthy family. Our whole family can't spend ten taels of silver a year."

Gu Huai smiled, noncommittal.

Fu An proudly puffed out his chest, and said contemptuously and arrogantly: "That's right, let me tell you, my young master won't pay attention to me at 50 taels. Do you know who our master is? It's from Taiyuan City Gu Yuanwai! Back then, Gu Yuanwai was..."

"Fu'an!" Gu Huai's voice was tinged with anger, and he interrupted Fu'an again.

This Fu'an is really heartless, he doesn't know the reason why he doesn't reveal his wealth when he is away from home.

Gu Huai knew very well that the current world is not particularly peaceful, and many people starve to death every year. "The granary knows the etiquette, and the food and clothing are sufficient to know the honor and disgrace." Now the common people can't even fill their stomachs, so they don't care about etiquette, justice and shame.

In such a world, Fuan's actions just now seemed to hold up a sign saying "We have a lot of money, come and grab me!", isn't this courting death?

Although there are only him, Fu An, and the boatman on board now, he is willing to give this seemingly honest boatman a certain amount of trust, but what Fu An said, no matter how honest and responsible the boatman is, it is inevitable that he will have some feelings after hearing what he said. Think differently.

Fu An turned his head in confusion, as if he didn't know what mistake he had made, and asked, "Master, are you hungry or thirsty this time?"

Gu Huai was choked by Fu'an's confident and reluctant tone. He was surprised to find that his personal servant no longer had the slightest respect for him.Although he has never had a young master's airs, and he treats the servants around him as equal friends, but Fu'an's tone and behavior just now made him feel that things might develop into an uncontrollable situation.

Gu Huai shook his head: "No, not at all, you guys stop talking about this, talk about something else."

This time, Fu An didn't even answer a word, he just turned his head away, walked to the boatman and squatted down, chatting with him cheerfully.Fu An deliberately lowered his voice as if he was afraid that the content of the conversation would be heard by Gu Huai.

Gu Huai looked at Fu'an's back, heard the low laughter from the two from time to time, and began to reflect on his previous behavior over and over again.He found that he really failed to establish prestige in front of his servants.

When he first transmigrated to this world, he had the thinking of a modern person and firmly believed that everyone was equal, and he couldn't let those servants have the idea of ​​being inferior.

But now it seems that I was too naive back then.He is powerless to change the feudal society that has lasted for thousands of years in China, let alone change people's deep-rooted thinking.Sometimes, instead of doing as the Romans do, but sticking to one's own stubborn and childish ideas, it may be self-defeating.

Feeling Gu Huai's depressed mood, Xiaoqing arched the back of his hand with the top of her head, and sobbed twice coquettishly.Gu Huai was tickled by his fur, laughed twice, and hugged the husky into his arms like a pillow.

At night, Gu Huai sat in the cabin holding the sleeping Xiaoqing, listening to the snoring sound of the sleeping Fuan.He couldn't fall asleep, and when he closed his eyes, all he saw was that person's face.

At this time, the boatman came in and exchanged glances with Gu Huai.

Gu Huai always felt that there was something wrong with this look, like a beast that had been hungry for a long time saw a fat lamb.But the boatman soon lowered his eyes dumbly, with a meek and honest look, which made Gu Huai deny his thoughts just now.

The two of them didn't speak, and Fu'an's even and long snoring sounded in the cabin.

I don't know how long it took, the boatman's snoring also rose from low to high, intertwined with Fu'an's, and the rhythm was strangely harmonious.Gu Huai's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally he fell into a dreamland in a daze.

In the middle of the night, a strange faint fragrance wafted into the cabin, causing the three people inside to completely lose consciousness in an instant.Then, an emerald green figure appeared leisurely.

Lan Yuyan stared at Gu Huai who was hugging a big black and white dog with red eyes, and was so angry that the top of her head was about to smoke.

He always thought that only he could enjoy Gu Huai's hug and Gu Huai's touch, but now seeing this dog, he felt something in his heart shatter with a "snap".

He stepped forward unceremoniously, grabbed the dog by its tail and pulled it out of Gu Huai's arms.

Gu Huai's body lacked a support, and he fell limply to one side.

The sleeping dog's tail was pulled violently by someone, and his whole body trembled violently, then he opened his eyes and turned his head to face Lan Yuyan's hand, about to bite it off, Lan Yuyan quickly grabbed the dog's long mouth, restrained live it.

Xiaoqing wrinkled her nose, let out a threatening roar from her throat, twisted and struggled vigorously.Lan Yuyan picked it up easily, and was about to go out and throw it into the river with a look of disdain.

At this time, a hoarse and weak voice sounded from behind: "Young Master Lan..."

Lan Yuyan's whole body stiffened in an instant. He had clearly applied Gu Huai's ecstasy incense just now, so why did he still wake up?

Husky took the opportunity to break free from Lan Yuyan's grip, and ran to Gu Huai's side with his tongue to rub against his leg.

As if Gu Huai didn't see it, he staggered towards Lan Yuyan: "Young Master Lan... don't leave, okay..."

Lan Yuyan's heart trembled, she turned her head ecstatically, and embraced Gu Huai, who was about to fall to the ground, into her arms.

Gu Huai's eyes had no brilliance, they were as empty as a pool of stagnant water.Lan Yuyan knew that he was intoxicated by his own enchanting incense, and he was still in a dream.

Lan Yuyan stroked Gu Huai's hair pityingly, and her previous hatred for Gu Huai without saying goodbye disappeared in an instant.

He touched Gu Huai's face, and his fair and handsome face was stained with a faint blush.

Gu Huai stared at him blankly, and said softly: "I know this is a dream, only in a dream can I dare to hug you like this..."

Lan Yuyan was so excited that her heart almost jumped out.

"So... don't go, okay? Let me see you for a while..." Gu Huai smiled lightly, hugged Lan Yuyan, and kissed him lightly on the lips.

Lan Yuyan was dizzy for a while from the overwhelming joy and embarrassment, she didn't notice that Gu Huai's body fell limply on the ground again, and fell asleep.

Lan Yuyan felt that the scenery in front of him was spinning, he patted his face, and fled out in a panic.
