Xiaomei walked on the lawn in the backyard with a stack of clean sheets.
Before, Ronggui and Hana accidentally dropped the sheets on the ground when they came to dry the sheets. That's not to mention, the lawn here is not an ordinary lawn. It is not grass but herbs. The grass seedlings, who were not very good looking, broke down at the sight. Hana didn't mention the honor. After all, two people fell down at the same time and crushed the grass, but the little girl's eyes were shriveled. It was easy to ask When he came out, Ronggui only heard the little girl say, "This is what my father... planted by himself..."
Ronggui... Who is Ronggui~ Planting an apple seedling can make the apple seedling abandon the house and grow to the landlord's house downstairs.
Fortunately, although Xiaomei works in the studio, he doesn't know if it is because he wants to receive Ronggui's distress signal at any time. He habitually opens the window and door, and the sound from the door enters Xiaomei's ears, not waiting for Ronggui. Asking for help, Xiaomei appeared at the door.
At this moment, Xiaomei, who is 1.1 meter tall, is almost 1.8 meters tall in Ronggui's heart!
Picking up the dirty sheets and hanging them on her shoulders, Xiaomei immediately helped Ronggui, and then picked up the little girl. In the end, Xiaomei Shiran hung the dirty sheets and went back into the laundry room, and the washing machine rumbled again. , Xiaomei came over with a small wooden barrel and a small shovel in the other hand.
He squatted near the plants that had been crushed by two people, and he helped the plants with their broken waists up one by one. For those with minor injuries, he tied their waists straight again with cloth strips, and for those with severe injuries, he simply used scissors to cut them up. Cut by the waist.
"This kind can only be cut and it will grow, but it will take a long time." Xiaomei explained.
Then he dug up the soil and looked at the root of this herbal seedling, dug out a few black lumps and threw them into the wooden bucket, Xiaomei said: "I need to order insecticide tomorrow, Muxuelan (the herbal medicine) name) was originally supposed to be very flexible, an herb with a flexibility comparable to lawn grass, and if it breaks, it means there is a problem with its growth, most likely because of worms on the roots.”
"It's considered that you discovered it early. If the pest infestation continues, the entire piece of Muxuelan will not be able to be preserved."
After Xiaomei finished speaking, she handed the small wooden bucket and shovel to Ronggui, and then went upstairs.
Leaving Ronggui behind, carrying a small wooden barrel and a shovel, he first smiled stupidly: "So we were lucky in disguise, and we discovered the hidden danger in advance~"
Little Hana nodded in agreement, and immediately, the little girl's eyes couldn't help but float into the bucket in Ronggui's hand:
"This worm is really fat!" the little girl exclaimed.
Ronggui: ? ?
"Insects? What bugs?" Rong Gui said, following the little girl's line of sight to... his hand, only to see a black and big bug crawling on his hand at some point! That's not all, he watched as there were several other blacker and fatter bugs crawling from the bucket to his hands!
"Ah!!!" With a scream, Ronggui hurriedly threw away the bucket and shovel in his hand.
"Are there any bugs on my body? Are there any bugs on my head? On my back, on my back?"
Ronggui shouted and ran all over the yard. In the end, Hana reminded him that there might be other bugs in the yard. He just stiffened, and hurried to the direction of the house, standing at the door, he was dead. down.
No way, he's not afraid of anything else, he's just afraid of insects!
Whether it is a black bug with a hard shell, or a long, soft, squirming bug, he is all afraid of it~
So, when Xiaomei came down with the rewashed sheets, all she saw was Ronggui who was holding the door frame and refused to go down to the lawn.
The small wooden bucket and shovel that were given to Ronggui before were taken over by Hana, holding the shovel in her left hand and the bucket in her right hand. The little girl not only picked up all the bugs that had escaped before, but also began to actively dig up other bugs in the original place. Come.
There's no way around this~ Children of this age basically like to dig bugs~ Whether they are hard-shelled or soft and squirming, in the eyes of children, they are the best toys~
So, in the following time: Xiaomei was drying the sheets, Hana was digging for bugs, and Ronggui... Ronggui probably also felt that she was useless, and when Xiaomei had dried the sheets and came back up, she said to Xiaomei guiltily:
"Sorry, you are so busy, you have to come and help me, do you delay the progress?"
Xiaomei squinted at him: "Don't delay, I just made a composition analyzer with ready-made materials and injected the strong nutrient solution into it. It is now analyzing the possible synthesis paths, and it will probably be analyzed tomorrow morning. I was free for a while."
Ronggui blinked.
Since Xiaomei is free, it seems that the strength he held to the door frame just now was a little too strong, and the door doesn't seem to be able to close. Why don't you... ask Xiaomei to repair the door while she is free
So, in the next effort, Xiaomei began to repair the door.
Xiaomei was busy working, Ronggui was next to him, and he wanted to help deliver the tools. Unfortunately, he didn't know anything about maintenance.
Although it is useless, it is still inseparable.
The little girl occasionally glanced in the direction of the two while digging for bugs, laughed, and then continued to dig bugs.
In short, Xiaomei went out and there was no problem that could not be solved. The dirty and dilapidated house like a haunted house became warm again after his cleaning and maintenance.
The broken light bulbs were all replaced with new ones; the squeaking door shafts that lacked lubricant were re-oiled, and the doors opened and closed smoothly and silently again; the badly worn floors were all waxed; all the fabrics in the house were All were removed and cleaned, and the old smell in the house was replaced by a fresh smell of washing powder.
Everything looks just perfect!
Apart from-
"Oops, all the sheets have been washed, you have nothing to cover today." The cleaning was too thorough, and when he was about to leave, Ronggui was a little dumbfounded.
After thinking and thinking, Ronggui finally looked at Xiaomei: "How about we take Hana back to the house we rented for one night?"
Xiaomei didn't say a word.
He didn't say anything, just didn't object. After discussing with Hana for a while, Ronggui happily packed Hana home.
In fact, it was also a little bit of his selfishness. He could not bear to let the little girl live in such a haunted house by herself, not to mention that the little girl's dead parents came back every day in that house.
Although I know that they are my parents, and I miss them very much, for such an old child, the appearance of their parents is still too scary. They are afraid and looking forward to it. This child is very tangled every day.
At least one day at least, at least today, he wanted to make this child easy.
With this in mind, Ronggui took Hana back to the newly rented house that he and Xiaomei rented, and then—
"Agui, the house you live in... looks like a haunted house!" Before getting off the bus, the little girl whispered and bit her ears with Ronggui.
Honorable Mention: …
Oops, forgot about this one.
The house they live in is actually not much better than the little girl's own home!
A little girl who lives in a "haunted house" can say that the place where she lives is a "haunted house". How "ghost" is this house~
After wandering outside for a day, Ronggui almost forgot his terrible landlord. Now that he came back, the fear that had disappeared before floated up from the bottom of his heart again, and finally Xiaomei called him to get off, and he jumped stiffly. Down the rhubarb.
Holding Hana's little hand tightly, Ronggui's heart was extremely nervous.
The house with a large area is still dark. Because he doesn't want to see the green "ghost", Ronggui decides not to use the thermal imaging mode. In this way, the house is really dark to him.
The room was quiet, the two little robots were walking lightly, and the little girl subconsciously lowered their footsteps under their leadership. For a while, there was no sound in the room.
until-
As he was walking, Ronggui's foot was crooked, and when he managed to stabilize his body, did he realize that he had actually stepped on a floor? !
There was such a sudden sound in the quiet room, and the movement was extraordinarily loud.
Oops! You've done something wrong again! Just when Rong Gui was shocked and scared, an old voice suddenly came from the room.
"You didn't step on it, the floor was already broken."
The small hand in his hand suddenly grabbed his own hand, and Hana's small body suddenly stuck to Ronggui's body.
Ronggui finally activated the thermal imaging system, holding the little girl's shoulder with one stiff hand.
A faint green "ghost" reappeared in his field of vision. In the living room that was completely dark, the old woman was sitting on a rocking chair, her fingers were slowly moving, this was...
Knitting
In a dark, quiet haunted house, an old lady is sitting in the living room and knitting... Is there anything more terrifying than this
Ronggui was almost scared to cry!
In fact, there are
In the darkness, the old woman stretched out her arm, only to see her groping a few times, and after a crisp "click" sound, a dim little yellow light lit up in the room.
Two bowls full of blood were placed on the small round table beside the old woman! If you look closely, there is a fork on each bowl!
It's like offering meals to the dead - Ronggui is horrified!
Oops... Is the system Xiaomei repaired about to fail? He felt as if he was going to faint again...
Reaching out a hand to cover his forehead, Ronggui was feeling dizzy. Suddenly, he heard Xiaomei say: "The two of us are using mechanical bodies now, so we don't need to eat."
Only then did Ronggui realize: Ah... So this is what the landlady prepared for them... Dinner
The old woman's white eyes flicked in their direction, her wrinkled hands resting on the sweater needles again.
"That… "
No need to continue to listen, Ronggui immediately guessed what the old woman wanted to say next: it was nothing more than that the things that were prepared were not used, so they would not need to prepare for them in the future, let them go upstairs by themselves... and so on.
Suddenly there was a sense of guilt in his heart, Ronggui happened to hear Hana's stomach gurgling, he quickly interrupted the old woman's words and said loudly: "Great, Hana hasn't had dinner yet! These two bowls The rice just happened to be eaten by the little guy."
"Hahaha, I was too careless. I was cleaning up, but I forgot to prepare dinner for Hana."
"Hana, you too, you have to tell me when I'm hungry~" After speaking, Ronggui patted the little girl's head.
The thin lips were pressed into a stiff straight line again, and the old woman stopped talking.
Boldly, Ronggui led Hana towards the old woman's direction.
Looking up close, the face of the old woman in the dark still looks very scary, but even more scary than her face is the two bowls of rice on the small round table: the thick red thing on it, if you look closely, it should be a kind of sauce , the sauce covered the whole bowl, and it was completely impossible to see what was under it.
This thing... edible
Ronggui glanced at Hana hesitantly: If this thing is really weird, he would rather make the old lady sad than let Hana eat this meal.
However, at this time, Hana couldn't notice Ronggui's sight at all. The little girl only had the two bowls of rice in her eyes, and Ronggui heard her swallowing.
"It smells so good..." the little girl whispered.
Then, he picked up a big bowl from the small round table, the little girl sat on the carpet, pulled out a fork and dig a piece of rice, her eyes lit up, and the little girl's next move could only be described as gobbling.
Eating one bowl was not enough, the little girl immediately picked up the second bowl and ate two big bowls of red rice. The little girl was content to hold her stomach and burp.
"It's delicious! What's this?" The sense of satisfaction after eating the delicious food overcame the fear, and the little girl dared to speak.
The peculiar and tender voice of the little girl made the old woman stunned for a while, and then a coil was passed around her hand, and the old woman then said slowly:
"It's red shrimp rice."
"Use fresh red shrimp grass to make a thick paste, which is good to cover on ordinary rice."
"I have bad eyes, so I can only cook simple meals now." At the end, the old woman added.
Ronggui didn't feel anything wrong yet, but the little girl's eyes suddenly lit up: "Is this the legendary red shrimp rice!!!"
"The legendary herb that can taste seafood! Not only is it delicious, but it is also very good for the body~ Red shrimp grass is a very expensive, very expensive, very expensive herb!"
Ronggui's eyes immediately moved to the two large bowls that were licked up.
Is it so delicious and so precious? what! Too bad I can't eat it! ! !
"It's not very precious, I just want it to be easy to do." With a light snort, the old woman said calmly.
The old woman's eyes were still terrifyingly white, and the lines on her face were still stiff and serious, but at this moment, when Ronggui looked at the old woman again, she no longer felt terrible about her.
They will use precious herbs to prepare dinner for the new tenants. When they come back late, the old people have been waiting for them. This…
This is simply touching the good landlord of the whole tower!
"What's the matter with this child? Your child?" After knitting the yarn quietly for a while, the old woman spoke again, another explosive question.
"Hey? How is it possible~ Xiaomei and I are golden bachelors~ This child is... our employer!" After thinking about it, Rong Gui said.
"Today we were working at our employer's house, and we accidentally washed all the sheets and Hana's clothes. Isn't it impossible to sleep at all? So... I brought her back." Rong Gui quickly explained it again, and at the end, he asked pitifully, "There are two people who rented the house. We occasionally bring more people back... Should... It's not a breach of the contract, right?"
Being able to let him talk to people pitifully (← is actually a coquettish tone), it seems that he is really not afraid - Xiaomei glanced at Ronggui without a trace.
"Where are the parents of the little girl...?" Ignoring Ronggui's last question, the old woman asked him immediately.
"This..." When it comes to Hana's sadness, Ronggui didn't answer right away.
In the end, it was Hana who answered the question herself.
"My parents are gone, they... have become undead..." The little girl's weak voice was especially pitiful.
"Oh." The old woman only said this, and said nothing.
This is really a hard-to-talk old lady-the surroundings became dead silence again, Hana's little hand took Ronggui's again, facing this deadly silence, Ronggui didn't know what to do.
What broke the silence was the percussion.
Ronggui turned his head to look, only to realize that Xiaomei ran over at some point, squatting on the floor, he was beating...
Ronggui then remembered: the floor that he had trampled on before.
Xiaomei, you are so kind! This will help me make up for my mistakes - thinking of this, Ronggui looks at Xiaomei with thanks again.
His eyes were so hot that Xiaomei couldn't help but turn her head, glanced at him slowly, then turned her head slowly and continued to repair the floor.
"Ah... the floor over there is a little broken, too, Xiaomei, can you fix it too?"
"There are also large cracks in the glass of the windows..."
Looking around the room, Ronggui also found some other work for Xiaomei.
The old woman continued to sew. She seemed to have heard the movements of Ronggui and Xiaomei, and she seemed to have not heard...
Until Hana yawned a little.
"It's getting late, the child is sleepy, you take her to sleep."
After the old man finished speaking, he paused, then added after a while, "I have some clothes that she might be able to wear. You guys are waiting here."
After saying this, the old man stood up, and she didn't need to fumble. She turned into the next room like a completely normal person. When she came out after a while, she had a stack of clothes in her hand.
Very nice little dress in typical Cicero style with a nice embroidered pattern on it, it looks amazing!
"I can't see what the little girl looks like. I just picked up a few pieces, can I wear them?" The old man asked seemingly casually.
"Appropriate! Appropriate! Ah~ These skirts are so beautiful~" Ronggui, who had unfolded the skirt and saw the complete appearance of the skirt, was simply stunned by the workmanship of the skirt! Not only did he watch it by himself, but he also pulled Hana to watch it together. Like children of the same age, Hana was completely stunned when she saw these skirts!
Thinking that these skirts can be worn by herself, the little girl is so happy!
"It's fine if you can wear it." She nodded reservedly, and the old woman immediately said, "I'm going to bed, you guys should go to bed too."
Then, she slammed the door shut.
However, Ronggui is not so afraid of her cold face now. With the skirt in his hand, Ronggui and the little girl looked at each other, and both of them laughed.
This night, Xiao Hana slept with Ronggui on the left and Xiaomei on the right, and she was caught in the middle.
The "sleep" of the two little robots is very simple. The shutdown is considered "sleep", and the room is quiet again. Hana looked left, then right, and finally—
With a grunt, she rolled into Ronggui's arms and fell asleep.
It didn't take long for the little girl's characteristic light breathing sound to come from next door.
Xiaomei, who had been "sleeping" on her back, suddenly had a faint orchid in her eyes and turned her head slightly. He first looked at Ronggui, and then his eyes fell on the little girl who was hugging Ronggui and was sleeping soundly.
He just kept watching, watching—
The night passed quickly.
The author has something to say: "Are there any bugs on my body? Are there any on my head? On my back, on my back?"
Ronggui shouted and ran all over the yard. In the end, Hana reminded him that there might be other bugs in the yard. He just stiffened, and hurried to the direction of the house, standing at the door, he was dead. down.
No way, he's not afraid of anything else, he's just afraid of insects!
Liar, you are still afraid of ghosts.
