Chapter 37
The timeline still has to go back to the night before the broadcast of the emergency news.
In the long and quiet alleyway, a thin woman in a black dress was wearing a hat that covered half of her face. Her fair ankles were looming with the swaying of the skirt, and her high heels clacked as she stepped on the steps.
Such a gorgeous and beautiful scene has to make people imagine.
It’s just that this exciting woman is holding a child, a girl, with one hand.
The girl’s hair was a little messy (it was messed up by Mu Fei), and a small face was quietly lying on the woman’s shoulders while crying.
Scenes like this are always indescribably weird.
After all, no one could imagine that a woman of this size would have the strength to hold a slightly older child with one hand, not to mention that she was very good-looking, she couldn’t tell her age at all, she was very young, and she didn’t look like a mother.
It is because of such an unimaginable scene that passers-by who brush shoulders with him are still a little hesitant about whether or not to strike up a conversation with him.
However, when the child lying on the woman’s shoulder raised his head, the adult man who was going to approach the beautiful adult to chat with him somewhat retreated, because the child just stared at their faces silently.
A pair of deep black eyes stared at you expressionlessly.
To be stared at so unabashedly, everyone felt horrified.
After the passers-by with visiting eyes left in embarrassment, You Ran lowered his eyelids again, and his eyes still fell on the injured hand of the adult.
I don’t know why, it was obviously a dark night and there was only a little moonlight in the alley, You Ran could still see the small puncture marks on the adults.
Pantothenic acid in her heart, she even hoped that the adult’s wound would be placed on her, because she could endure the pain, but she didn’t want the adult to be hurt a little.
“Sir, You Ran, but, you can, yourself, go.” You Ran discussed with Lord Mu Fei in a low voice, she didn’t want to be a burden on her own, she was afraid that she would be too heavy.
Mu Fei walked to the entrance of the alley and stopped.
Because there are street lights.
There is no light in the roadway, and it is difficult for human children to walk on such uneven stone steps for the night vision of human children.
So she put You Ran down, looked down at the little guy’s frozen red face, and asked.
“Yuran.”
The usual cold voice of the adults came from above, and You Ran raised his head and looked carefully at the white face of the adults.
“You gave that gold coin, did that person change it?” Mu Fei suddenly remembered that the gold coin he gave was made of pure gold, and at least he could buy all the goods in the store.
This little thing won’t be directly given to the candy seller and run to find her.
You Ran listened and immediately thought of the scene at that time.
She took the marshmallow, gave the heavy gold coin to the other party, and then… she ran away.
Yes, she was looking for her lord like a mad dog with epilepsy. The lord found it, but the gold coin was also handed over to the dessert chef.
Marshmallows are also ruined.
Gold coins are given, but nothing is taken back. This is the worst thing!
“Master, my lord, I, I…” You Ran shivered, she was a physiological reaction to something wrong.
Started stuttering again.
Mu Fei raised his eyebrows, this little thing is so timid, he can be scared like this if he asks a little bit, looking at his expression, he gave gold coins to others but didn’t get anything back.
Mu Fei’s nature as a half-businessman always felt that it was more or less a loss for a business that gave money and didn’t get anything back.
“Sir, you, you…you punish me.” After You Ran said, she bit her lips and lowered her head. She couldn’t say that she didn’t want change because she wanted to look for an adult, because that was not the reason.
Mu Fei looked helplessly at this little thing that was willing to be punished. He really couldn’t play with it, and it was easy to feel a subtle sense of guilt when he was teased.
But she spoke with a sullen tone.
“How do you want me to punish you?”
After listening to You Ran, she twisted her fingers in both hands, and she was about to cry. She had already become a child who did something wrong, but she knew that if she didn’t say anything, the adults might really want her because of her stupidity. .
“My lord, I, I can, come, come to the market… make money.”
You Ran knows that although many restaurants and shops have signs that prohibit the use of child labor in response to the rulers, in private, everyone is secretly recruiting child labor to work as coolies, because it is very cheap, and even if something goes wrong, they will. Wipe off clean.
Therefore, she can find a place to work, and then earn money, earn money equivalent to that gold coin, and give it to adults.
You Ran saw that the adult did not respond to her plea, she reached out a little anxiously but did not dare to grab the adult’s dress, so she could only gesture in mid-air.
“Sir, you, you believe, believe me, I, can… can” can do anything to make money.
The two people under the street light, one big and one small, the young child was trying hard to prove himself, stumbling about how to make money, while the adult just stared at her quietly, his expression changed from indifferent to serious. A strange crack appeared.
She just didn’t speak, You Ran was like a machine that didn’t have enough sex, shooting bullets out like a machine gun, telling herself that she could wash dishes, do a handyman, mop the floor, shine shoes… In short, all kinds of tiring, Dirty, physical work that even adults hate, she said she could do it.
This kid is not joking, but proving:
As long as she Mu Fei said, “Well, do it, so I won’t abandon you”, You Ran will overcome all difficulties and do these overloaded coolies.
“You Ran.” Mu Fei called her.
“Sir…” You Ran looked up at him pitifully, hoping that the other party would not say heartless words.
“Has anyone said that you speak like a squirrel, a squirrel that can do a lot of gestures.” Mu Fei bent down slightly, his face instantly approached You Ran’s face, and looked directly into the other party’s pure eyes.
You Ran was startled by the sudden approach of Lord Mu Fei, she foolishly lowered her hand that had been gesturing various tasks in the air, “If the pine, the squirrel, the adults, like it, then I think, want to become ,squirrel.”
Listening to the words that could not bear the harsh words, Mu Fei finally stopped being a cold old face and couldn’t help laughing. She took off her hat and put it heavily on You Ran’s head.
Then straighten up.
“You, remember, I, Mu Fei, will never break my promise. I said that if I let you be self-willed tonight, it will make you self-willed. It is nothing more than giving out a gold coin, even if it is hundreds of them, I will not punish you. , be at ease.”
Mu Fei said lightly, the slight smile on the corner of his mouth made You Ran look dumbfounded.
Lord Mu Fei’s smile always made You Ran stunned for a long time.
Mu Fei pointed to the dessert shop in front of him. Unfortunately, it has already hung up the signboard of Dashuo.
However, although the cotton candy cart at the door was closed, the candy maker did not leave.
“Let’s go and see this one. If the other party doesn’t admit the fact that you gave gold coins, then buy another one.” Mu Fei pushed a small thing that was stunned in place, and then walked straight to the cotton candy pusher. car.
You Ran immediately followed.
“Yo, kid, you’re finally back! I’m still waiting for you here!” The dessert master who was packing the marshmallow cart saw You Ran who was wearing a hat.
You Ran was a little terrified, she turned to look at Lord Mu Fei, who was just looking at her very gently.
You Ran said in a low voice, wanting to tell him about the gold coins he gave to the other party before.
“That, first, sir, before me”
“I know what you’re going to say, kid,” the pastry chef took out the glowing pure gold coin from the box in the marshmallow cart, and he laughed out loud, “When you gave me this gold coin, I was stunned and didn’t pay attention, there were so many people at the time, I thought you just gave me coins, but it turned out to be this, you really startled me!”
You Ran smiled embarrassedly.
The pastry chef handed the gold coin to You Ran, then asked You Ran to wait a moment, and took out the well-preserved little squirrel marshmallow from the glass window on the side, which was huge.
He also handed it to Yu Ran.
You Ran looked at this sudden surprise, her eyes widened in surprise, and then she looked at Mr. Mu Fei beside him as if begging.
And the adults just nodded to her, indicating that she could make her own decisions.
“There is no child who doesn’t like cotton candy. You look like you are crying and you have a bad nose. You must have not eaten it, right? It happens to be the last one, so I will give it to you. Take it.” Master Dessert He smiled and signaled Xiao Youran to accept it.
You Ran swallowed, and after finally looking at Lord Mu Fei, he stretched out his little hand to take the oversized squirrel marshmallow.
Mu Fei always had a light expression on his face. Seeing the smile on You Ran’s face, he felt relieved.
I promised the little guy to come here to find food, but because of my own reasons, I didn’t eat anything. Of course, it was a bit difficult.
“Do you also run the dessert shop in the back?” Mu Fei stepped forward to chat with the kind old man.
The candy maker nodded. The shop in the back sells chocolate desserts with exquisite packaging, but marshmallows must be made fresh to taste delicious. They are cheap and do not make money. No one wants to make them, but it is a celebration. Make the kids happy.
“In that case, I want to buy a bag of candy for this gold coin, okay?” Mu Fei smiled and expressed his feelings to the other party.
When the old master heard this, his face was embarrassed. This pure gold coin can buy more than all the candies in his shop. The other party just bought a bag, and he has no money to return.
“This…”
“You don’t need to give change, you deserve it.” Mu Fei knew the scruples of this kind sugar-making old man, put the gold coin on the glass of his cart, and took You Ran into the shop.
The old man looked at the back of the well-dressed woman, was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward immediately, and opened the door of the dessert shop for their two last guests.
The warm and soft lights were re-lit in the store, and rows of beautifully placed candies were displayed in front of them.
You Ran looked at all this in surprise, she had never seen so many such beautiful chocolate candies.
Then You Ran was attracted by a set of exquisite round chocolates, which seemed to be a set, each small round chocolate with a cartoon face carved by the craftsmanship of the sugar maker.
You Ran looked at one of the chocolates, Her Royal Highness wearing a hat, and she thought of this adjective.
Like Mr. Mu Fei.
The sugar maker looked at You Ran staring at the chocolate. The set of chocolates was originally sold in limited quantities every day. Because they were all handmade and carved with patterns, he could only make one serving a day, so the girl The one in front of me is expected to be sold tomorrow.
“Kid, do you like this set?” The sugar maker stepped forward and asked You Ran.
You Ran nodded happily, with a silly smile on his face, which made Mu Fei walk forward a little curiously, wanting to see what this little thing likes.
Mu Fei squinted his golden brown eyes and glanced briefly at the five round chocolates with shapes similar to cartoon faces.
Mu Fei frowned, not quite understanding.
You Ran pointed to the shapes of the two villains on the far side, “Lord, you, look!”
Mu Fei had to look again, but saw nothing.
“This, like, like Aunt Dai, this, like, Dao Lei, first, sir.” You Ranluo excitedly informed Lord Mu Fei of the new continent he had discovered.
Mu Fei looked at it with cold eyes, but he didn’t feel it.
It’s just that the little guy is still pointing at the chocolate and continues to express, “This, so cute, cute, like Han and Sheng teacher.”
When did Han Sheng, the old guy, get involved with “cute”.
Mu Fei suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
“She, she looks like He Rui, sister…”
Well, He Rui is a new little gardener who organizes the flowerbed. He seems to have a good relationship with Xiao Youran, and even the gardener appeared.
Just because these guys make this little thing so happy?
Mu Fei’s eyes were gloomy and he was about to ask the boss to quickly pack this chocolate bag, and then let the little thing learn to shut up.
“But, still, my lord, this, this is the best looking.”
You Ran shyly gestured like the last chocolate treasure, and let Lord Mu Fei look at it.
Mu Fei originally wanted to reprimand You Ran for talking too much, but she didn’t expect to hear the last sentence. Then she raised her eyebrows and followed the direction You Ran pointed to, looking at the little cartoon round chocolate with a hat.
Well, that one is indeed the prettiest.
“Then please pack this.” Mu Fei said to the sugar maker in a kind tone.
The sugar maker was in a trance for a moment, thinking that the other party was angry.
Obviously, Mu Fei was in a good mood at the moment.
She thinks it’s good for children to talk a little bit more. Who makes tonight a ‘children’s night’.
After arriving home, You Ran distributed the sweetest candy gift box to her similar people.
Aunt Dai, Dao Lei, Han Sheng and the little gardener were all very happy to receive this gift from a human child.
And Mu Fei, who was sitting in the study, listened to the bursts of cheerful laughter downstairs. It seemed that there were very few such sounds in her mansion.
She was not displeased, but silently closed the book, and she was waiting.
Waiting for You Ran to give him that piece of chocolate that looks so much like himself.
As everyone knows, only that piece of chocolate with the most special significance was placed in a place that only the little guy knew about, and she planned to keep it hidden for a while.
Therefore, Mr. Mu Fei waited in the study all night without seeing the chocolate in return, and a circle of dark circles appeared under his gloomy eyes.
It looks even scarier.
