Bai Xian made do in the staircase on the first floor of the dance hall storage room. He didn't live in a decent house.
In the cold winter, he had no bed, just a broken mattress, which was given by the people in the dance hall.
Fortunately, he was strong and not afraid of the cold.
At more than five o'clock in the morning, he woke up and was ready to change shifts.
He simply groomed and changed into clothes. As soon as he looked up, he saw haoxue coming out of the upstairs.
The first and second floors are storage rooms, and the third and fourth floors are dormitories for singers and dancers.
Haoxue is a little famous. She has a separate room, but she doesn't allow Bai Xian to live in it.
Seeing that he woke up, haoxue rushed to him and jumped into his arms.
She has a nice smell of incense. It's the smell of being warmed by a high bed all night.
Embrace only a few seconds, she released Bai Xian.
She was a petite figure, so she stepped back and stepped back up three flights of stairs, so that she could see Bai Xian's face clearly and her eyes were flush with him.
"Did I get drunk again last night?" She smiled.
She is a woman with delicate eyebrows and eyes. Even if she is infected with the wind and dust, she is also very charming.
Bai Xian didn't say anything.
Haoxue sighed: "I didn't die drunk at that time. I knew it in my heart, but I couldn't control myself, especially when I was drunk.
I hate this world, my parents who abandoned me when I was a child, the people in welfare hall and the guests. My heart is too bitter, only you are still by my side.
I have nothing but you. I dare to insult you like that. I deserve it. I had a dream yesterday that you despised me and left by yourself. Stone, will you dislike me? "
"No." Bai Xian's voice is low and stuffy. It seems that he smoked all night and his throat is bad.
Haoxue laughed.
She said, "I'm relieved that stone keeps its word. I've saved a lot of money recently. In another year and a half, we can get away. Stone, when we buy land in the countryside, can you grow it?"
Bai Xian didn't answer.
Haoxue continued: "no, it doesn't matter. You can learn. You can learn everything quickly. When the agriculture is free, we can go fishing and catch loach, and a group of children run around us."
Bai Xian made a sound.
Haoxue reached out and touched his face: "look at me, it's early in the morning. Say what's available and what's not. Well, you go to work and be smart."
Bai Xian made another sound and went out.
When he came to the door of the ballroom, someone whistled at him.
He saw the man from the ninth master.
The man pointed to a pocket not far away, turned and disappeared at the end of the street.
Bai Xian went over and opened his pocket. It was full of rice, more than 50 kilograms.
Zhang Xinmei looked at Si yuzao's face and knew that all the rice Gu Chen bought yesterday was gone. She specially asked someone to send it.
Bai Xian was so insensitive that he picked it up and went to the broken alley where Gu Chen lived.
He hid the rice at the entrance of the alley before changing shifts with his companions.
My companion stayed up all night, yawned and turned away.
Bai Xian carries the rice again and walks to the door of Gu Chen's house.
Gu has got up and is making breakfast.
Seeing him, she lowered her eyebrows and eyes. When she couldn't see him, she continued to turn on the stove and reheated the rice porridge that had been cooked in the middle of the night last night.
Bai Xian put the rice at her door and blocked her way back to the house.
Gu was surprised.
"What is this?" Gu asked.
Bai Xian didn't answer. He turned and retreated back to the position he had been monitoring, without saying anything.
Gu Kun opened his pocket and saw MI.
This is long grain japonica rice, which is more expensive than her own, and a lot.
She looked at Bai Xian's direction again.
Bai Xian's eyes were cold, and he looked ferocious.
Gu Zhen thinks it must be from Zhang Xinmei. Although Zhang Xinmei pressed for the whereabouts of the document, she always remembered that she was Si yuzao's aunt.
Even if it is a dog raised by Si yuzao, Zhang Xinmei will be kind to her, not to mention that she is still a little aunt.
It was hard for Gu to push such heavy rice home.
She wasted so much energy that she was sweating all over in the cold winter.
Busy, she suddenly shouted to Bai Xian at the door, "hello."
Bai Xian looked at her.
"Can you help me pour the rice into the rice jar?" Gu said, "I really can't carry it..."
Bai Xian had no words and walked into her room.
He followed her every day, but he never came in.
The room was small and dim. It is said that the old houses have a lingering musty smell, but she doesn't have it here, with a faint smell of orange peel.
Bai Xian saw that she lit a small stove under the window, baking grapefruit peel on the stove.
Without saying a word, he came forward to help her carry the rice and poured it into the jar.
He was so strong that Gu Zhen was too tired to carry a bag of rice. He picked it up easily.
When he was finished, he asked, "what else to do?"
Gu pointed to the table.
Two bowls and chopsticks, rice porridge, steamed stuffed buns and a plate of pickles have been arranged on her small dinner table.
"So early, haven't you had breakfast yet? Thank you for sending me back yesterday. Otherwise, I would definitely get sick if I was caught in the rain all the way." Gu's voice was low.
Bai Xian looked at the breakfast on the table and was stunned.
He was silent for two seconds, then grabbed two steamed stuffed buns, brought rice porridge, bowed his head and walked out of her room.
Leaning against the wall, he silently stuffed the two steamed buns in his hand into his stomach and drank two mouthfuls of porridge.
Rice porridge is hot. In such a cold winter, drinking it can warm people's internal organs.
Bai Xian leaned against the wall and drank.
He finished his last sip, remained silent for a long time, walked back and put the bowl at the door of her yard.
Gu Zhen went out after 20 minutes, picked up the bowl, locked the door and went to work.
Bai Xian sat on a stone stool downstairs of their newspaper office.
When it was almost ten o'clock, he found someone looking at him upstairs, so he raised his eyes.
Just hit Gu Chen's eyes.
Gu Zhen smiled.
A moment later, she came down and took a book to him: "this is a novel. Take it and read it, otherwise it's boring to sit idle."
Bai Xian didn't answer.
His expression was cold and his voice was not so friendly: "I can't read."
Gu's hand stiffened.
Bai Xian looked down at her and asked, "what do you want to do?"
Gu Zhen was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole in the ground. Her face was pale and she slowly withdrew her hand. There was a voice in her heart asking herself, "what do I want to do?"
"Miss Gu." A car stopped. The man leaned against the door with glasses and looked at this side with a little vigilance. "Miss Gu, are you in trouble?"
Gu Zhen returns to his senses.
Her face was very ugly. She hurried back: "no, Luo Zhubi, I know someone."
People you know?
Bai Xian felt that this sentence inexplicably drilled into his heart.
He sat down again, bored and looking at the street view.
This day, after sending Gu Zhen home, he changed shifts with his companions. He still went to the dance hall to help bring tea and water, and then wash the dishes.
He doesn't do this every day. He just helps occasionally. After all, people give him a stairwell to live in.
This dance hall is also hung on the bright side of the business, the manager is clearly hung man, secretly is also the eyes of nine.
Yesterday, the little dancer crowded around him again: "brother Bai, are you okay?" The dancer's surname is sun. It is said that she is the daughter of a scholar's family. Her father was infected with opium and destroyed the family. Her family owes a lot of debt. She is only 17 years old this year. She hasn't finished middle school. She can't find any other business at all, so she has to come
Be a dancer and support your family while paying off your debts.
She has an unusual affection for Bai Xian. Even if she was humiliated like haoxue yesterday, she still came to him.
Bai Xian doesn't want to cause trouble to others.
Whether he responds or does not respond, he will hurt the little girl of others, and he has no ability to save the family from suffering. He simply pretends to be indifferent and ignores her.
"I'm sorry, but I don't want to be enthusiastic today."
Sun Xuehao said, "I'm fine. I'm drunk."
Bai Xian looked at her: "Xiao Sun, can you read?"
"Yes." Xiao Sun said. She has studied for many years. If she hadn't had an accident at home, she could work as a clerk and earn a meager salary. Bai Xian hesitated for a long time: "can you teach me to read?"
