Quick Wear: BE cannon fodder does not follow the routine

Chapter 544 Sir, Please Stay (6)

"Forget it, it's my fault that I, as your uncle, am incompetent." The man left the house with an axe, and the others looked at each other.

"Everyone, get up."

"Mother, Father will not care about us anymore."

"Don't worry about him. Mom will find you something delicious. This matter has nothing to do with you." The woman helped the four children up and wiped her tears.

Right now, there is war at the border and refugees are coming in continuously. They also need to survive, so how can they take a burden with them?

One month later…

"My handwriting has been much better recently. The teacher said that a scholar should be looked at with new eyes after three days of absence. Xiaoxi, am I good?"

"Great, Miss, you have always been great." As expected of the protagonist with a huge halo, she understood things at once. Why didn't she have that? Gu Yuxi was very envious.

Deng Moci was delighted and said, "Hey, mother is going to visit the farm outside tomorrow morning. It would be great if we could go with her."

"Miss, do you want to go out and have some fun?"

"Well, I just want to go out, but many people won't let me go out. Xiaoxi, I want to eat the shortbread made by the grandma at the end of the alley."

"Miss, if we can't go out, we can ask someone to buy it for us."

"I don't have any silver and can't go out...silver!" Deng Moci's eyes lit up, and she seemed to know where she could get the silver.

"Xiao Xi, come with me quickly. I want to go find my brother. He will definitely be happy to take me with him."

Gu Yuxi quickly caught up with Deng Moci in front of her. The cue was the useless phrase "Literature can stabilize a country". She couldn't find the target of the task for a moment, so she might as well live a carefree life like a child should.

"Miss, wait for me."

"I won't wait for you, you chase me!" Deng Moci winked mischievously at the person behind him.

Soon, Deng Moci and the other arrived at Deng Wenjie's residence. The servant reminded her, "Miss, the young master is studying in the study. Please go in and continue."

"Dongfeng, you are being lazy."

"It was the young master who said he wanted to be alone."

"You are not allowed to come with me. I will go find my big brother by myself."

Seeing Deng Moci leave, Gu Yuxi tactfully stayed outside the door and waited, but she didn't expect Dong Feng to come over and ask, "Xiao Xi, what is the young lady going to do?"

"Borrow money to buy food and play. Madam said that we can't give her the money in her account office, so that she can study with the master in peace during this time."

"Well, Madam has good intentions, but Miss has made a lot of progress in her studies recently."

"Ah."

Dong Feng looked at the cold maid and went over to her and said, "Xiao Xi, smile more. It's not good to be cold."

"I don't want to laugh now. I can't laugh."

"Then I'll make you laugh and tell you a joke."

"I do not want to hear."

"No, I'm telling you..."

Deng Wenjie in the room had his eyes closed, his brows slightly furrowed, and was lost in deep memories of the beautiful dream he had last night.

The scene in the dream unfolded slowly in his mind like a colorful painting: the figure of the mysterious man gradually became clearer, and he was seen kneeling on the ground humbly, begging for mercy from a woman.

The woman had a graceful figure, and there seemed to be a complicated emotional entanglement between her and the man. The two of them made love on the bed, and the red waves rolled, making people blush.

Thinking of this, Deng Wenjie's cheeks flushed and his heart beat faster. However, what impressed him more was the heroine.

She was in a beautiful courtyard full of flowers, moving lightly among the flowers like a dancing butterfly.

From time to time, she would stop, stretch out her delicate hands, and playfully tease the carp playing in the lotus pond.

The scene changed, and she boarded a small boat with a broken-string pipa in her arms, and began to play it leisurely.

The melodious and pleasant piano music was like the sound of nature. It could be heard clearly in the dream, lingering in the ears for a long time.

At the same time, the man was holding a small doll, concentrating on sketching the woman opposite him...

Deng Wenjie worked hard to outline the contours of the woman in his dreams, as if he wanted to freeze the woman's peerless beauty forever on the canvas.

But every time he was about to see the woman's face clearly, the image would gradually dissipate like smoke, becoming more and more blurred, and finally disappearing without a trace.

No matter how hard he tried, he could no longer trace the woman's true appearance.

"Huh——" Deng Wenjie sighed and slowly came back to his senses from the dreamlike memories.

At this moment, a slight sound of footsteps came from far away. His heart tightened, and in panic he hurriedly put away the unfinished painting carefully and hid it deep in the drawer.

"Brother!" A clear and sweet voice was heard, and a girl in a pink skirt and double buns came running towards them like a happy little bird.

"Mo Ci, why are you here?" The young man was slightly startled, and then an indulgent smile appeared on his face.

"Why can't I come! Don't you welcome me?" Deng Moci asked with her hands on her hips and pouting her lips. She looked so cute and adorable.

"How could I not welcome you, my dear sister? But at this moment, shouldn't you be learning piano with the teacher?" The man touched her head gently.

"Hmph, the teacher has something to do and can't come to teach today. Besides, mother has to go to the farm, and there is no one in the mansion to play with me. I'm so bored. By the way, brother, I want to eat some pastries outside, but I don't have any money. Can you lend me some?" The little girl blinked her bright big eyes and looked at him expectantly.

"You! You spent all your money so quickly again?" The man shook his head helplessly.

"Oh, no, that's not the case. My mother didn't let Xiaoxi give me so much pocket money, saying that she was afraid that I would spend it recklessly. All my money this month is kept by my mother. Xiaoxi really doesn't have a penny." Deng Moci explained aggrievedly.

"My brother is going to meet some friends today. It seems inappropriate to bring you along, right?"

"Why is it inappropriate? I want to go too. We are friends at the academy, right?"

"Forget it, I'll just take you out to see the world."

"Brother, you are the best."

Deng Wenjie tidied up the things on the table and left the study with his sister. He saw Dongfeng telling jokes to Gu Yuxi, but the maid was not interested.

"Come on, smile! Isn't this funny? If you don't like it, I'll tell you another one."

Gu Yuxi looked at the little book boy in front of him and thought to himself: The stories told by this child are indeed a bit boring, but at least he tried his best to tell them, so I have to give him some face, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Yuxi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and revealed a faint smile.

It was the time when the hibiscus flowers were in full bloom. The tree was covered with flowers, and the breeze blew, causing a few petals to fall. Gu Yuxi, standing under the tree, had a smile as blooming as a flower, which made people feel like they were bathed in the spring breeze.
