Fisherman

These days, Zhao Qian has been busy with a lot of things. At night, Zhao Qian just falls out of bed and sleeps, but today he regained the gambling house and went to a big event. Xianli's account book.

In Di Guangzu's gambling shop, he only pays dividends every month and doesn't have to worry about reading the books. However, the restaurant is his own shop, so he has to pay more attention to everything.

I don't know how long he looked at it, but the place next to him was still empty. He put down the account book, and was about to go out to see what the young man was doing, but he didn't come in to sleep. He just put on his slippers, and Brother Zhou walked in slowly.

He raised his head and was stunned for a moment, Brother Zhou put a handkerchief on his shoulders, it was autumn, and he wore more clothes at night than in summer, but he had never seen Brother Zhou wearing this white dress before. In pajamas, under the dim oil lamp, the young man's hair is still dripping, and he rubs his hair on the back of his head from time to time, which is very seductive.

"Why haven't I seen you wearing this suit?" He sat on the edge of the bed and kept looking at him with his chin propped up.

Brother Zhou noticed his gaze, and turned his face away in embarrassment. He said that he would be found out if he changed his clothes on purpose, so he lingered outside for a long time before he got up his breath and said, "It's getting cold."

Zhao Qian smiled, pulled him into her arms, let him do it on her body, took the handkerchief and rubbed it on his head: "Didn't I say it several times, don't wash your hair at night, if you don't wipe it You'll get a headache after doing it."

Brother Zhou didn't speak, and let him rub his head.Zhao Qian wiped it and then buried his head. The smell of saponins was very good. After taking a bath, the young man was as refreshing as bamboo after rain, so he couldn't help but want to get closer.

"Brother Zhao, do you think I'm tall?"

Zhao Qian didn't understand why the young man said that. He thought for a while, and the little brothers he had met in his memory were all short and not as tall as his wife, so he paused and nodded in agreement: "Indeed Pretty high."

Hearing this, Brother Zhou's heart sank, sure enough!He is tall and strong, but men still like thinner and shorter brothers. He thought that if he hadn't lived under the same roof with Brother Zhao by chance, would someone as outstanding as Brother Zhao not have looked at him at all.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Qian saw the young man asked and didn't speak, turned his head to look at him, saw the young man's face was calm, his eyes were full of disappointment, his heart skipped a beat, did he say something wrong?

"Today, is that son good-looking today?"

Zhao Qian's brows tightened, and he reflected on himself, no matter how much he thought, he couldn't think of taking a second look, or showing that young master's different expression, words and actions!

"Why are you being weird tonight and asking some strange questions?"

Brother Zhou turned his head to look at him, did not answer his words, but instead waited with anticipation for the answer to the previous question.Zhao Qian took it for granted, "I didn't pay attention to it. I see so many people every day, how could I remember clearly?"

"is it?"

"Then if he comes to the restaurant again in the future, can I take a closer look?"

"No need!" Brother Zhou hurriedly said.

Zhao Qian pinched the boy's cheek, made up the kiss that was interrupted today, and rubbed against his neck. Zhou Geer was thinking about today's affairs, and suddenly something resisted him. The son pulled his thoughts back, he was no longer an ignorant little brother, but he still couldn't help blushing.

"Brother Zhao!" He subconsciously wanted to get up from his arms, how could Zhao Qian let someone run away, put his arms around his waist and put him on the bed.

He buried it on the young man's neck, greedily smelling the fresh scent on his body, and said hoarsely, "Help Brother Zhao."

Brother Zhou was originally full of depression, but he was tricked into going to bed in the end, and he lost everything...

It rained in the middle of the night, and the rain didn't stop the next morning. One autumn rain and one cold. Only after it rained did I feel that autumn had really come.

Zhao Qian changed into a thicker robe, and when she went downstairs, she found that the mistresses who came to work were still wearing the mistress uniforms that were uniformly issued before. It was light and cool to wear at that time, but today the weather is cold.

"You all go back and add some clothes before you go to work. I asked the tailor to make two sets of thicker clothes. It's better to wear when it's cold."

When the boys heard this, they rubbed their hands together: "Thank you, Boss Zhao."

"Let's go!"

After the mistresses left, the couple had breakfast together. Zhao Qian saw that the boy was a little sleepy: "Go back to sleep for a while."

Brother Zhou quickly shook his head: "Not sleepy."

Zhao Qian rubbed his head helplessly: "I'm going to the gambling house later to arrange some basic things. Do you want to go out for a walk with me?"

"Can we go together?"

"Of course."

After eating, Zhao Qian pointed to an oil-paper umbrella. It wasn't raining much outside, but it would definitely get wet after a long time. He held Brother Zhou's shoulders, and the two went to the casino.

The rainy ancient street has the smell of rain. Not many people go out in this weather, and it is inconvenient to walk outside with an umbrella.

When they arrived at the casino, Zhong Jiu had already led his brothers to clear out the broken tables, chairs and benches yesterday. When the two entered, the casino was very empty, and several brothers were sweeping the floor.

"Boss Zhao, you're here!"

Zhao Qian put the umbrella at the door, looked at Brother Zhou, and felt relieved when he saw that he was not drenched by the rain.

"You guys arrived pretty early."

Zhong Jiu came out of the back room with hands full of dust, and glanced at Zhou Geer. It was unbelievable that the two of them were so close together, and he was a little uncomfortable: "I asked the brothers to clean up briefly, you see what we will do next. What do I have to do?"

"Go to the carpenter to make a few sets of tables and benches and come back. I have asked the painter to make cards. I have cleaned up the inside and outside of the casino. It is estimated that it will be open again in ten days." The people led by Zhong Jiu are long-term mess As a gambling shop, he knows how to do basic things, so he doesn't need to worry about it. At most, he needs to mention what is needed. Today, he came here just to go through the motions. By the way, he took his daughter-in-law out for a stroll to see the new business at home. .

He took Brother Zhou up and down the gambling house for a while, the second floor of the gambling house had a good view, Brother Zhou leaned on the railing and looked out.

"How about it, do you think there is something missing here?"

Brother Zhou turned around and smiled awkwardly: "I don't understand these things."

"Then let's go back."

Brother Zhou tugged at the corner of his clothes, wondering if he had spoiled Zhao Qian's interest, so he hurried up: "The matter is over?"

Zhao Qian held him by the hand: "I don't have anything to do, the main thing is that I want you to come here to have a look."

Having said that, Brother Zhou felt even more choked up. Brother Zhao finally found time to take him out to have a look, but he couldn't express any opinions.The two walked back silently holding the umbrella again, stepping on the green flagstone street, he said something flattering from the bottom of his heart: "Brother Zhao, you are really amazing."

Zhao Qian lowered her eyes, put one hand on his shoulder, frowned as if thinking carefully: "Which aspect are you referring to?"

"What, what aspect?"

He whispered in the young man's ear: "For example, you can save the words that I was great last night and say them at night. Don't say them on the street during the day. Walls have ears."

Brother Zhou opened his eyes wide and looked around for a few times. He was relieved to see passers-by wearing umbrellas and walking their own way. His face was very hot, and he was secretly annoyed at how he could say something so shameless. In terms of words, it seems that we should talk less in the future, so as not to make Brother Zhao laugh and lose face when there are many people.

Not daring to admit what happened at night, he said in embarrassment: "I, I mean, the thing about taking back the gambling house is very powerful..."

"Oh~ You said this, I still think you're talking about..." Before he finished speaking, Brother Zhou hurriedly covered his mouth, and looked around guiltily, for fear that he would speak without restraint. Talk to get someone's attention.

Seeing his reaction, Zhao Qian couldn't help laughing, how could she have such a cute daughter-in-law!

"You're still laughing!" Seeing this, Brother Zhou pushed him, and walked out of the umbrella by himself.

Zhao Qian quickly leaned forward: "Hey, I didn't tell a lie! Don't be angry!"

One of the two ran in the rain, and the other insisted on holding an umbrella. During the fight, they bumped into someone head-on, and there was a slap, the sound of falling into a puddle.

Brother Zhou was startled, and hurriedly turned his head to look. Zhao Qian was fine, but knocked a thin child to the ground. He walked over a few steps, and Zhao Qian had already helped the child up.

"Did you fall?"

The child broke away from Zhao Qian, and hurriedly went to the ground to pick up a white-faced steamed bun that fell into the puddle. It was already soiled by the water on the ground. The child picked up the steamed bun and wiped it on himself a few times.

Brother Zhou looked very pitiful, he was still wearing a short-sleeved summer dress full of patches in such a cold day, his hair was unkempt, and his thin body looked like he couldn't eat enough for a long time.

"I'm sorry, the steamed buns got dirty for you." With that said, Zhao Qian turned around and went to a stall on the other side, and bought a few steamed stuffed buns filled with meat that were just out of the basket and said, "Here, this is compensation for you." of."

"The child raised his black face and quickly took the bun: Thank you, brother."

Listening to the voice, I can recognize that it is a boy.

Zhao Qian asked, "Why are you here alone, where are your family members?"

The child couldn't wait to bite the meat bun, as if he hadn't eaten for a few days, but his hands froze when he heard this: "I don't know who my parents are, and I have been with my grandfather since I was a child, but my grandfather died of illness a few days ago. , it’s just me.”

"how old are you?"

"Ten years old."

Brother Zhou saw that the child was not as thin as a ten-year-old except that he was a little tall, and he couldn't help feeling sympathetic. When he took out some money and was about to give it to him, the child firmly shook his head: "Brother , I am ten years old, and I can do a lot of work, can you let me do something with you? I don’t want anything, just a bite to eat.”

Afraid that the two would not agree, the child said again: "I eat very little, and I don't need much food."

Although Brother Zhou felt sour, he couldn't make decisions about these matters. He looked at Zhao Qian who was on the side.

Zhao Qian, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Yes, but there must be a probationary period. If you can't do well and suffer during this period, you have to leave by yourself."

The child's eyes were shining brightly, and he said eagerly: "I will definitely do things well, and I can bear any hardship."

Zhao Qian nodded.
