1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 97 Magpie
As soon as the sky was getting bright, a group of magpies surrounded the roof of the small courtyard to announce the good news. Sometimes they would chirp twice, sometimes two or three times, and they would go up and down over the courtyard.

Luo Tao didn't pay attention to their existence, and just washed himself, using clean water to wash away the filth of the night. The main thing is that Luo Tao never saw a magpie, and his wife Su Guilan made a lot of noise while cooking.

"Wash clean, clean clean"

Luo Tao took the toothbrush and went back and forth in his mouth, brushing it up and down violently. As he got closer, he heard the continuous sound of "times".

A mouthful of white sputum, turn on the faucet, tilt your head and mouth upwards, take a sip of water, "gugu" clean up the mouth, then spit it out, and then repeat this a few times, it feels like rinsing the toothbrush, He returned home with a towel over his shoulders.

There is no need to use a cup to brush your teeth today. Carrying a cup is a burden.

"Is the little guy awake?" Luo Tao asked Zhu Lin softly.

"Haha, he woke up early but didn't want to get up. He stayed in bed even though it was warm." Zhu Lin wanted to laugh as he said this. The little guy is now the happy fruit of the family.

"You go have breakfast and go to class first!" Luo Tao said to Zhu Lin. It won't be long before she ends her classes in Nortel's acting training class.

Last year, she got addicted to acting in "Little Courtyard" directed by Gianzhuangzhuang, and sometimes she even asked Luo Tao to write a script for her.

Luo Tao also wanted to pick up a pen and tailor-make a novel for her, but he didn't know how to write the beginning. After thinking about it, he might as well forget it. When he writes novels, he relies entirely on inspiration and other people's experiences.

She can only wait for director Wu Tianming of Xi'an Film Studio to adapt "Mountains Away and Roads Away", otherwise I won't be able to help her.

Luo Tao, who couldn't write the manuscript, had no choice but to turn around and persuade Zhu Lin to accumulate more acting experience and not to rush for success.

She didn't agree with what Luo Tao said, and kept talking to the effect that Luo Tao had opinions on her acting.

She was still angry for a while, but luckily someone asked her to act, otherwise Luo Taofei would go crazy from being tortured by her.

"Well, you wake up the little one and remember to rinse his mouth before eating." Zhu Lin brushed his shoulder-length hair a few times in front of the mirror and asked Luo Tao to take care of the little one's affairs.

"understood."

Speaking of gargling is superfluous, most of the mouthwash is drunk by the little guy, how could he understand this mouthwash at such a young age.

This is the only bad thing about studying medicine. He always pays attention to hygienic living. The little baby who is only one year old has to start learning to protect his mouth. Isn’t this difficult for him? Then he thought about it and followed his wife’s instructions.

"Well, I'm leaving then." After Zhu Lin got Luo Tao's promise, she went to the north room to have breakfast and then go to class.

Luo Tao looked at the little guy who was huddled under the quilt on the kang. His little eyes were bright. Luo Tao pushed the quilt and he shrank in.

"Son, it's time to get up. Look at the sun, the sun is drying your ass. Daddy will take you for a bird walk today. Would you like to go?" Luo Tao said to the quilt.

The little guy didn't show his head either, hiding under the covers and making no movement.

Luo Tao had no choice but to lift the quilt and let him know the dangers of society.

"Ha" Luo Tao really lifted it halfway and saw a big, smooth butt. The crotchless long johns were too revealing.

After copying it to him, the sample still wanted to run away, "Can't we run away yet?"

Luo Tao gently scratched his armpits a few times, tickling the flesh.

"Haha" he smiled, waving his little hands and twisting around.

As long as he didn't cry, Luo Tao dressed him skillfully, combed his hair with his hands, put on a hat, tsk tsk, this little handsome guy is too handsome, Sai Luo Tao.

As soon as she left the bedroom door, Su Guilan walked in.

"Hey, little darling, wake up."

She couldn't help but snatch the child from Luo Tao's arms, praising the little guy and straightening his crooked hat with her hands.

She ignored Luo Tao and carried the little guy to the north room for dinner. She kept talking and nagging the little guy.

Luo Tao patted himself and followed.

"It's time to eat." He met Zhu Lin before entering the room.

"Well, go in and eat quickly, I won't tell you anymore." Zhu Lin was still chewing the rice in his mouth, and hurriedly went to the east wing to get his things to prepare for class.

"Is my dad gone?"

"Well, I took the birdcage for a walk early in the morning, had some food and then went to work." Su Guilan replied to Luo Tao while feeding the little guy custard.

One egg custard meal a day, it seems that he has not suffered much in these years.

"My dad is really diligent. There is still more than an hour before work." Luo Tao took a sip of porridge and chewed a bite of steamed buns and said.

"Hmph, you're a good model for your father's factory." Su Guilan was slightly offended, and occasionally wiped little October's mouth with a white handkerchief.

Luo Tao now thinks that it is better to eat. When chatting with Su Guilan, he is either shocked to death or the knowledge contained in the topics of conversation is overwhelming.

……

Su Guilan was sitting in the yard holding her shoes. Hehe, I prepared these for Luo Tao. I am a very smart person.

Luo Tao was sitting on the Xiaoyao chair, reading a book and teasing little October, who was sitting on a children's chair and playing with wooden cars.

"Knock, knock, knock"

Su Guilan looked at Luo Tao and motioned for him to open the door to welcome guests.Luo Tao put down the "Quan Zhi" published in the 13th year of Tongzhi in his hand, stood up and opened the door.

"squeak"

"Ah! Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wang, why are you here?"

It didn't matter if Luo Tao didn't open the door. Once he opened the door, the two big guys stood in front of the door carrying gifts.

"I didn't expect us to come!" Mr. Zhang said with a smile while leaning on a bamboo stick.

"Hehe, how dare I think about this? The arrival of my second elder really made my humble house shine." Luo Tao laughed so hard that both of his teeth came out.

Mr. Wang Shixiang said: "Haha, you are really talkative."

"Mr. Wang, let's go to the hospital first."

"Give!"

Mr. Wang directly pushed the gift towards Luo Tao's property, then helped Mr. Zhang into the courtyard.

"Haha, take a good look at his small courtyard. It's really nice." Mr. Zhang said to Mr. Wang.

They were chatting, and Luo Tao stood behind him, closed the door, and called out, "Mom is here as a distinguished guest. Let's make tea."

When Su Guilan in the yard heard his shout, she hurriedly put down her work and came to welcome the guests.

"Hey, Mr. Zhang, why are you here, who is this old gentleman?"

"Oh, his name is Wang Shixiang, and he is a great scholar."

"Hey, hello, Mr. Wang, please come in quickly." Su Guilan was excited and a very capable person. What kind of virtue had he accumulated in his previous life to be able to meet such people one after another.

"Okay, oh, this little guy is here too!" Mr. Zhang saw Little October and walked a lot faster. This little cutie is so annoying.

Su Guilan went to make tea, while Luo Tao chatted with the little ones.

"Do you want to read the book about ancient coins?" Mr. Wang picked up the book Luo Tao had just read.

"Hey, what do you think of this "Quanzhi" as a thread-bound book in the Tongzhi period?" Mr. Wang was surprised by the age of the book, and asked Luo Tao what he had learned from his studies.

Luo Tao replied honestly: "I know it but I don't know why."

"Well, seeing you like this in the book can be regarded as a foundation. In the future, I will have more exposure to real objects before I dare to explain it. Do you understand?"

"Do you understand that it's okay to just study? I'm afraid that the treasure is right in front of me and I don't know it."

"Haha, can you tell whether something is genuine or not if it is put in front of your eyes?" Mr. Wang teased Luo Tao.

"Um, now I'm collecting things with the principle that I'd rather kill the wrong than let them go. After I collect them, won't there be an elder to keep an eye on them?" Luo Tao said with a playful smile.

"Hey, you are really good at scheming, so I have to take a look at your things first to see if they are worth being plotted by you." Mr. Wang said with a smile to Mr. Zhang.

Mr. Zhang teased the little guy and laughed heartily when he heard him say that.

Su Guilan had already made the tea and brought it out.

"Two gentlemen, you have tea." Su Guilan set up the tea set again.

"Okay, don't be busy. I see you are making cloth shoes, right?" Mr. Zhang said.

"Yes, Luo Tao said that Neiliansheng's cloth shoes were not easy to wear, so he asked me to make a few pairs." Su Guilan replied.

"Mom, I didn't say that Neiliansheng's shoes are bad. We can just talk about it at home. We can't say that when we go out. What if someone comes to find us?" Luo Tao is considered a big man. What if this happens in the future? It would be too embarrassing to buy other people's shoes if someone picked up the matter.

"Haha" looked at these two old gentlemen and was very happy.

"I didn't go outside and say, it's not that Mr. Zhang asked, so I just answered."

"You boy, be careful that Neiliansheng won't sell you shoes in the future."

"Mr. Wang, please stop teasing me. How about you try this Dahongpao?"

"Okay, let's try it today."

The two gentlemen held the teacups in one hand and the tea cover in the other hand to pick the tea leaves, took a sip and savored them carefully for a long time.

"Autumn tea has a distinctive, mellow and sweet taste. It is considered a good tea."

"Well, Mr. Zhang is right, you have a lot of good things!" Mr. Wang said.

The three of them were chatting, and sometimes a child was added, saying "um, um" and patting the toys.

"Knock, knock, knock"

Hearing the knock on the door, everyone looked at the door, Luo Tao thought to himself who is this?

　Thank you for the [-]-coin reward from the official [No One Calls Me]
