Siheyuan: Chen Xueru helped me intercept Hu Qin Huairu

Chapter 199 I just want to give the poor girl a home
Looking at Zheng Peipei who was devouring his food, Li Xiuzhu sighed, took out a bottle of soda, opened it and handed it over.

"Have a drink, don't choke."

Zheng Peipei quickly took the drink and took a sip, then wolfed it down.

It wasn't until she finished eating that she seemed to come to life again.

(I’ll post another 18-inch one. I think this one looks good and is recognizable.)
Li Xiuzhu warned at this time: "When you go out, you should eat less and drink less what others give you, because you won't know if they have put drugs in what you eat."

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei smiled with a complicated expression and said, "People are going to starve to death. Does it make any difference whether we can take medicine or not?"

Li Xiuzhu was stunned for a moment, yes, is there a difference?
I'm afraid that at this time, you would take the medicine even if you knew it was being administered.

But at this moment, Zheng Peipei stared at Li Xiuzhu and asked, "So, did my brother drug me?"

"Brother, do you want to do something to me?"

Li Xiuzhu was numb, and quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't, I just wanted to remind you."

Only then did Zheng Peipei smile again.

Li Xiuzhu suddenly thought of a report he had read about Zheng Peipei.

Of course, this was Zheng Peipei's feeling. Li Xiuzhu was silent for a long time. Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, he suddenly said: "I am a British Hong Kong Islander and can marry many wives."

Based on past experience, the little girl should have fallen asleep.

This night was somewhat long for Li Xiuzhu, but it seemed very short for the little girl.

After cleaning up and leaving home, she came back again and became the wife of the Grand Master in Zhou Xingxing's movie.

"Please, brother."

Li Xiuzhu came back to his senses, was startled, and said subconsciously: "Wouldn't it be better for you to sleep over there?"

Zheng Peipei suddenly smiled shyly, restrained his movements and did not move, just looking at Li Xiuzhu.

Poor people who just promised Jiang Meiying and Chen Xueru to find a few less.

But, but... who makes the little guy so pitiful?

Zheng Peipei was a relatively traditional person. She entered a Shaw Brothers training class because she couldn't speak Cantonese. Then she stopped acting because she got married. She was pregnant eight times and had four miscarriages. She stopped only after giving birth to her son.

A warm atmosphere rose between the two of them, as warm as the sunlight streaming in from the window.

With expectation in his eyes and a little nervousness in his voice, he asked: "Brother, do you mean...are you willing to take me home?"

Is it so easy to sleep?

Li Xiuzhu was silent for a moment, turned around and lay on his side, facing Zheng Peipei.

With Zheng Peipei like this, no man can say no, right?

It's like waking up on a summer morning and seeing the one you love.

Li Xiuzhu smiled amusedly.

"I have no choice. If I had any choice, why would I go to her?"

Zheng Peipei seemed to have guessed Li Xiuzhu's answer a long time ago, and said: "As soon as I fall asleep over there, it will definitely be chaotic. What if the conductor checks the ticket again, what if someone comes to buy a ticket."

Yawning, Zheng Peipei opened his eyes and saw those eyes as bright as stars.

Looking at the charming Zheng Peipei, Li Xiuzhu had to admit that he was a little lost in this brother's voice.

Just when Li Xiuzhu was silent, Zheng Peipei suddenly spoke again: "Can I sleep with you for a while?"

Li Xiuzhu asked curiously: "Didn't you say you were looking for Mom? Why don't you want to go?"

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei's heart skipped a beat, and his heart jumped rapidly.

When Zheng Peipei approached Li Xiu's bamboo shop, he still hesitated for a moment, but then he firmed his gaze, lay down in it, and unfolded the quilt.

Zheng Peipei was silent for a moment and said: "I don't know what my mother's situation is over there, and if she can abandon me once, she may abandon me a second time."

But he couldn't see Zheng Peipei, the little girl was more than a head behind him.

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei's eyes suddenly darkened.

"Well, thank you brother."

"Okay, then you can sleep inside. When people come, I will help you block them."

Li Xiuzhu also lay down.

Li Xiuzhu became even more numb, as if he saw the neighbor's aunt and the bachelor.

"I have a wife."

Suddenly Li Xiuzhu froze, and the little girl pulled her hand behind her. She was nestling in his arms, and her two little hands were folded between them. She didn't know whether it was to make the space bigger and more comfortable, or to make peace. He got closer.

Well, what's wrong with him? He just wanted to give these poor girls a home.

"Brother, please relax, and can you turn to your side? It's a bit crowded."

Although it was dark now, it was still early. Li Xiuzhu was not sleepy yet, and the little girl was already breathing evenly.

Zheng Peipei showed a sweet smile and suddenly asked: "Brother, do you want a wife or not?"

"And I heard that the accents there are very strong."

"Ok!"

Hearing Li Xiuzhu's words, Zheng Peipei hugged Li Xiuzhu happily and smiled brightly.

Smiling, he couldn't help but stand on tiptoes.

It's a pity that she was lying down at this time and was on tiptoe.

But she still worked hard enough.

Seeing her working so hard, Li Xiuzhu felt amused and lowered his head slightly.

The next second, softness arrived as expected.

After a long time, their lips parted, and Li Xiuzhu asked, "Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?"

Zheng Peipei nodded when she heard this, then quickly shook her head, making Li Xiuzhu look confused.

Is this necessary or not?
"Not hungry?"

Just when Li Xiuzhu said this, the sound of "Gululu" sounded.

Li Xiuzhu thought it was from him, but he didn't expect it to be the other way around.

Seeing Zheng Peipei blushing and dodging, Li Xiuzhu smiled again.

Also, coming from the devil's capital, I lost my things early. The ham and bread yesterday were probably Zheng Peipei's meal for the whole day. How could he not be hungry?

"Come on, let's get up and eat. I happen to be a little hungry too."

Zheng Peipei then asked in a low voice: "I ate my brother's rations. What does my brother eat?"

It turned out that I was worried about this.

"Don't worry. If you take care of enough, you won't be hungry."

Suddenly Zheng Peipei remembered that she didn't seem to know her brother's name.

Well, he is no longer her brother, but her man.

"Brother, what's your name?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said funnyly: "You dare to leave with me even if you don't even know my name. How dare you?"

Zheng Peipei blushed when he heard this, but looked at Li Xiuzhu and said, "I can make a big decision in three minutes."

"Once you make a decision, just work hard in this direction and won't think about any regrets."

Li Xiuzhu nodded and said, "It's a bit too emotional and not advisable."

"But emotional matters are often just a matter of enthusiasm and impulsiveness."

"My name is Li Xiuzhu, Muzi Li, which means cultivating one's body like bamboo."

"I think I did too."

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei's eyes were filled with admiration.

"Brother, you are so awesome."

Li Xiuzhu smiled. He had always felt that he was not worthy of the word Xiuzhu, until one day he suddenly discovered that there were bamboo shoots next to the bamboo.

Looking at the bamboos next to the bamboos, he realized.

Isn't this the story of a male bamboo and a bunch of female bamboos? This bamboo shoot is the crystallization of their love.

Apart from the stain that he likes women, he is worthy of the reputation of bamboo.

"Let's eat."

Li Xiuzhu said as he took out ham sausage, braised beef, drinks and bread from the black bag on the ground.

"Eat first. There aren't many convenient things to eat on the train. These foods don't taste very good and won't disturb others."

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei believed that Li Xiuzhu had a lot of food. He nodded and said, "Thank you, brother."

As Zheng Peipei said, he opened a bag of bread and handed it to Li Xiuzhu first, then opened the beef and handed it to Li Xiuzhu.

Then Zheng Peipei started eating by himself. While eating, he looked at Li Xiuzhu with a smile.

"You girl, why are you always staring at me? Are there stains on my face, or is there something dirty?"

Zheng Peipei swallowed what was in her mouth after hearing this, and then said: "No, I suddenly felt very happy, thank you, brother."

Li Xiuzhu smiled helplessly, who can refuse a girl who has eyes for you?
Time passed by noon. After Li Xiuzhu and Li Xiuzhu had something to eat, the sound of ticket checking sounded outside the door again.

Zheng Peipei's expression changed and she wanted to get out of the bunk, but Li Xiuzhu held her back.

"Brother~"

The voice of grievance and grievance with a soft and weak voice immediately made people feel softer, but the ticket checker outside the door did not like the little girl.

However, Li Xiuzhu smiled, then turned his hand, and a ticket appeared in Li Xiuzhu's hand. It seemed that it was the kind of replacement ticket that the conductor only had.

"Here, you made up the ticket."

Obviously this is a ticket he just transferred through space.

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei became numb and took the ticket from Li Xiuzhu in disbelief.

"Brother, is there anything wrong with this ticket?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said: "I am your man now, will I harm you? Sit across from me."

"I just said that I made up for it after getting on the bus yesterday. The parental relationship on your letter of introduction can be used to make up for this ticket."

Zheng Peipei sat across from him nervously after hearing this, that is... until the matter is settled, you will still be nervous about the dangers you are about to face, even if you know that there is a 90% chance of passing safely.

Soon there was a knock on the door, and Li Xiuzhu stood up and opened the door.

The other party was not surprised at all when he saw Li Xiuzhu and the little girl, and thought they were the children brought by Li Xiuzhu.

Not surprisingly, the conductors of a train change frequently. No one can stay up for thirty-six hours a day, right?

"Show me your ticket and letter of introduction."

The two took out their tickets and saw that their tickets were different. The other party was stunned and realized that they were not together.

Only then did I read the letter of introduction.

At this time, Zheng Peipei was also extremely nervous.

Fortunately, what Li Xiuzhu said was true. This ticket was really valid, as was the letter of introduction.

It wasn't until the conductor left that Zheng Peipei breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he threw himself into Li Xiuzhu's arms and said, "Thank you, brother."

"Thank you for nothing. Take a look at the scenery outside the window. We are almost entering the three eastern provinces. The outside is not so deserted."

"Ah."

The train finally entered Harbin at 6 o'clock the next morning.

It's winter in Harbin now, and even if it's just winter, it's already minus 20 degrees.

Before getting off the bus, Zheng Peipei, who had been freezing as soon as he got off the bus, shivered and became energetic.

At this moment, a windbreaker fell on Zheng Peipei.

"It's a bit cold in Harbin in the winter, so a windbreaker can be of some use. Let's find a guest house to rest first."

Zheng Peipei said quickly: "Brother, I'm not cold."

But as soon as she finished speaking, a plush hat covered her head.

"Whether it's cold or not, I'm not blind. Let's go."

Li Xiuzhu found a guest house that looked good and took Zheng Peipei to check in.

Although the hostel clearly stipulates that only couples can stay together, this is not a problem.

His family lacked everything except a letter of introduction. It was nothing more than asking Zheng Peipei to use a pseudonym and pretend to be a few years older.

Li Xiuzhu said: "You should have a good rest here first. I have left food for you. There is also a place to eat downstairs."

"Brother, are you leaving?" There was a hint of panic and confusion in his big eyes.

Li Xiuzhu nodded and reassured: "I came here because of something. I have to pick up three people to go to the capital."

"But because we haven't reached an agreement yet and the weather is still so cold, it's inconvenient to take you with us."

"Don't worry, I'll be back after we finish talking."

"This is my address in the capital. If I really don't come back, go find me at home."

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei silently took the note in his hand, not very interested, but still said: "Brother, I will wait for you to come back. I will keep waiting."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you wait in vain."

"Lock the door. If you hear a voice that is not mine, don't open the door."

Li Xiuzhu left the key, thinking that Zheng Peipei might go downstairs for dinner.

Hearing this, Zheng Peipei hurriedly said: "Brother, take the key, I won't go downstairs."

Li Xiuzhu was startled when he heard this, smiled and said, "Okay, there is food in the bag."

Li Xiuzhu said, picked up the keys on the table and went out.

Taiping Hutong
This place is even worse than Li Xiuzhu thought. The road is dirt and there is a shallow ditch in the road. He doesn't know if it is for drainage.

If so, it’s really a bit understated.

Li Xiuzhu followed the house number for a long time and finally saw No. 89 Taiping Hutong.

Right behind him, there were many people staring at him.

It can be seen that the security in this area is really bad, but they are only children, about ten years old.

Li Xiuzhu knocked on the door, and after a while an old voice came.

"Who?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled and replied: "I'm from Beijing. We met last time. I was the one who helped Zheng Guangming with his eyes."

Li Xiuzhu's words made the old man's eyes light up, and he hurriedly took a few steps.

However, when he arrived at the door, the old man was not in a hurry to open the door. Instead, he opened the door and took a look, confirming that it was Li Xiuzhu who opened the door.

As soon as Li Xiuzhu entered the house, the old man locked the door. If Li Xiuzhu hadn't had a good attitude and strong strength, he would probably have thought that the old lady wanted to make money and kill herself.

"This……"

As if she knew what Li Xiuzhu wanted to say, the old lady said, "Our alley is a mess, so we keep the door closed whenever we can."

"Mr. Li, why are you here in person? Didn't you mean to write a letter?"

Li Xiuzhu heard this and said: "I originally wanted to write a letter at first, but I was afraid that you would have trouble getting through because you didn't have money, so I just came to pick it up."

The old lady was not stupid, her eyes lit up when she heard this, and she asked nervously and excitedly: "You, you mean our bright eyes can be saved?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said: "The veteran Chinese doctor still needs to see it in practice, but he is 70% sure that it can be cured."

The old lady became even more excited when she heard this, 70% is not a small deal.

But as soon as he finished getting excited, he realized that Li Xiuzhu hadn't been let into the house yet, so he hurriedly said: "Oh, look at me, Mr. Li hasn't been let in yet, please come in quickly."

"Juan, Juan, come out and greet Mr. Li."

Zheng Juan had heard a knock on the door before, but she didn't know who it was and thought it was a neighbor.

However, few neighbors came to her house. After all, her family was too poor to borrow soy sauce.

But when Li Xiuzhu entered the yard, Zheng Juan had already seen it through the window.

Zheng Juan's face changed and she immediately showed an expression of surprise.

The fact that the other party can come means that my brother's illness is under control.

Then he thought of the other party's conditions, and there was a trace of hesitation on his face, but it was only for a second.

After all, it was not time to just get the information, there was enough time for her to think about it.

And she had already thought about it, but when the matter came, she still hesitated.

When Zheng Juan heard her mother's voice, she quickly opened the door and said to Li Xiuzhu, "Brother, you are here. Come in quickly. It's cold outside."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and followed in.

There were two Kangs in the room. Li Xiuzhu took one look at them and Zheng Juan said, "Brother, please sit on the Kangs. We are all like this in the Northeast."

"You sit down and I'll give you a glass of water."

Li Xiuzhu didn't refuse. After Zheng Juan poured the water, he asked strangely: "You... where is your mother?"

Zheng Juan hurriedly said: "I didn't say, but I should have gone shopping for groceries. Brother, it's not easy for you to come here. My mother will definitely let you have a meal."

When Li Xiuzhu heard this, he quickly looked towards the yard. There was no one in the yard.

Li Xiuzhu then said: "Really, what kind of food are you buying? I'm mainly here to tell you about bright eyes."

Zheng Guangming was also in the room, but he looked for a long time before he saw Li Xiuzhu through the small hole in his pupils. Hearing what Li Xiuzhu said, he was unfazed.

"Brother, I don't want to be treated anymore."

Li Xiuzhu was startled when he heard this, and Zheng Juan hurriedly said: "Guangming, what are you talking about? We will treat it. Brother, don't listen to his nonsense."

Zheng Guangming shook his head when he heard this and said, "I don't want my sister to marry someone I don't like because of me."

This was not the first time Zheng Juan heard this. She was not moved but only nervous when she heard this.

"Brother, I didn't. Don't listen to his nonsense."

"Zheng Guangming, if you dare to say another word, my legs will be broken for you."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. This is our second meeting. Your brother is right."

"Guangming, do you think this is good?"

"I will write an IOU to you and your sister. As long as you and your sister can repay it within five years after you start working, you can find the boy you like."

Hearing this, Zheng Guangming hurriedly asked: "Brother, is what you said true?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "Of course it's true. Do you want to pull the hook?"

Zheng Guangming hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his finger, and said, "Brother, you can't lie to me."

Li Xiuzhu glanced at his little finger that was crooked to the side, stretched out his little finger and pulled it with the other person.

He smiled and said, "Can you cure the disease now?"

"Ok!"

Zheng Juan asked with a complicated look on her face: "Brother, why? You're not worth it."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and touched Zheng Juan's head and said, "It's worth it, because your name is Zheng Juan."

"Zheng Juan deserves better..."

Worth the world.

At least that's what everyone says.

"In addition, during this period, I will help you find a home in the capital. First, it will cure your eyes for the sake of light."

"Second, it's not safe where you live."

"The third is to go to school for you and Guangming."

"Don't refuse. I will arrange a leisurely job for your mother as best I can."

"Thank you, brother. I will never forget your kindness to our family in my life." Zheng Juan said and hurriedly said to Zheng Guangming: "Come here, Guangming, give your brother a quick kiss."

"No, I haven't hung it on the wall yet."

After Li Xiuzhu said this, Zheng Juan could no longer force Zheng Guangming to kowtow.

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "If it's okay, I'll leave first."

"Tell your mother to pack your luggage in the next two days, and I'll meet you at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Zheng Juan hurriedly said: "Brother, please stay for a meal, otherwise I won't be able to explain to my mother."

Li Xiuzhu thought for a while and nodded. He was not in a hurry.

After a while, Zheng's mother came back, holding a head of lettuce, a handful of dried beans, and a small piece of meat.

How small is it? At most, it's like three or two.

Before Li Xiuzhu came out, Zheng Juan's mother came in and said, "Mr. Li, I'm really sorry that I didn't buy fatter meat, and I don't have anything better to entertain you at home."

"It doesn't matter, this is already very good, and I don't particularly like eating fatty meat. It's okay to eat it once in a while. If you eat too much, you will get tired of it."

After hearing this, Mother Zheng remembered that Li Xiuzhu was a rich man, and he must not be greedy for fat meat. She immediately relaxed a lot and said quickly: "Then I will make you a braised pork with beans, which is a specialty of our Northeast. .”

"Row."

The food arrived soon, and there was only one dish in total, which was braised pork with beans. In addition to beans and meat, it also had the lettuce and vermicelli from before.

The red sauce is rich in oil, but the oil is very bland, and it looks like there is no oil at first glance.

However, Li Xiuzhu didn't mind it and picked up a bowl of rice from the table and started eating it.

This is the Northeast, and rice is not that valuable.

Li Xiuzhu took two bites and smiled helplessly when he saw the beauty holding the meat. He took a lot of it for the siblings.

Seeing this scene, Zheng's mother hurriedly stopped her.

"Mr. Li, don't give it to them. This is for you to eat, and they usually have something to eat."

Zheng Juan also hurriedly picked up the meat in her bowl and gave it to Li Xiuzhu. She hadn't moved it yet and it was still clean.

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "You really don't have to be like this. Do you think my red lips and white teeth make me look like someone who is short of food?"

"Juan, you and Guangming eat more, you look like your little faces are so hungry, they're all pale."

Zheng Juan glanced at her mother when she heard this, and when she saw her nodding, she started to eat in small bites.

It was obviously just a piece of meat, but I ate it four or five times before finishing it.

Li Xiuzhu saw that Zheng Juan had finished eating and gave him another chopstick. Zheng Juan quickly refused and said, "No, brother, I'll just have one piece."

"Guangming, Mom, you eat."

After seeing Li Xiuzhu finish eating, Mother Zheng asked: "Mr. Li, my family is bright..."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. Just pack your luggage and follow me in two days."

Zheng's mother was startled when she heard this.

"Luggage? Are you leaving with me? Is it in such a hurry? How much does it cost to see a doctor in Guangming?"

Li Xiuzhu said with a smile: "I will lend Guangming's medical expenses to Zheng Juan first. You can also sell the house. I will make arrangements for you when we get there."

"Including work."

"We are looking for a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Seeing a doctor does not happen overnight, and it is not convenient to run back and forth."

"And it's more suitable for Guangming and Juan'er to go to school there."

"Don't worry."

Zheng's mother felt numb after hearing this. She always felt like something was falling out of the sky. She asked in disbelief: "Is it borrowing, not letting Juan...?"

Li Xiuzhu said with a smile: "If Guangming doesn't want to, just lend it to Juan. We'll talk about the future later. I won't force Juan anyway."

This is Zheng Juan. Li Xiuzhu said this because he knew that Zheng Juan's character would 100% repay her kindness.

But Zheng Juan should also return the money to him before repaying her kindness.

Otherwise everyone would say that Zheng Juan is worthy of the world, but her life is not very good.

Hearing what Li Xiuzhu said, Zheng's mother said nothing, but held Li Xiuzhu's hand tightly, full of emotion.

"Come on, pack your bags. It's time to sell the house."

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to sell it, you can just think about it."

Li Xiuzhu left the Zheng family and walked to the river.

Taiping Hutong is not far from the Songhua River. Li Xiuzhu, who saw the Songhua River for the first time, couldn't help but slow down.

Anyway, it’s not lunch time yet, so I’m not in a hurry to go back.

It was the first freeze at this time, and the river surface had not yet frozen. The ice particles that had been frozen at night had long since disappeared under the sunlight.

There are many wooden steps on the shore of the Songhua River leading to the river. Some girls are washing clothes by the river.

Suddenly, in front of a staircase with only one person, a little girl was bending down to reach something with a mallet, but that action was extremely dangerous.

Li Xiuzhu stood not far away and shouted quickly: "Be careful."

I don't know if this voice frightened the little girl. The little girl lost her balance and fell into the water.

Li Xiuzhu was numb. Is this because he fell into the water?

Without having time to think about it, Li Xiuzhu quickly ran over following the figures floating on the river.
