Chapter 750 Hopeless City (18)
Watching Zhou Ye use his crutch, he becomes more and more comfortable.
"This little girl..."
Qinhua is an old beauty. Even with her white hair, her youthful beauty can still be seen. She speaks very little and always likes to be busy in the kitchen alone, and then bring out the food on time when it is time to eat.
Zhou Ye likes her very much. Every time he comes to her, he talks more.
The old man sat at the table and looked at the two big steamed buns in front of Zhou Ye.
There was one of him there, but now Zhou Ye took it away from his bowl without mercy.
Of course, as he is older, he cannot cheat on this matter. He originally hoped that Zhou Ye could learn some traditional virtues of respecting the elderly and loving the young. However, this kid must have never gone to school when he was a child. He is not polite at all, and he is not worried about whether he will be hungry. With his belly, he took away the steamed buns readily and directly, and now they are still close to his Qin Hua Tao.
The old man was drinking his porridge, feeling a little regretful that he had asked her to come over to set up a fire for dinner.
After eating and drinking, Zhou Ye helped Qinhua wash the dishes and chopsticks.
All the water in Hopeless City comes from snow water. In order to save coal and firewood, everyone only uses cold water to meet their daily needs.
Qinhua suffers from severe rheumatism and cannot straighten up at night, let alone be exposed to cold water for too long.
Originally, the old man washed these dishes, but later Zhou Ye was willing to help, and of course the old man was welcome.
After washing the dishes, Zhou Ye leaned on his crutch and prepared to leave.
The old man looked at the crutch he had used for many years and asked angrily.
"Is my crutch still easy to use?"
Zhou Ye nodded.
“It works better than my previous one.”
Before I polished my hands, the top had already been polished smooth and round by the old man, and the height was just right.
"Huh, let's go, let's go."
This girl was not polite at all. She just left and disappeared into the snow with her beloved crutches. After Zhou Ye left, the old man closed the door and walked slowly back into the house.
It was obviously daytime, but the room was dark, damp, and extremely cold.
There was a basin of hot water burning on the stove. Qinhua sat in front of the stove to warm herself up. The old man followed her and sat down together.
"Sent away?"
"Well, this girl's temperament is really interesting."
Talking about Zhou Ye, the old man's chatter box started again.
Qinhua listened quietly, holding her face with her arms, her still bright eyes full of him.
"Daqi, you like that little girl very much."
"Hey, it's interesting, it's really interesting."
Qinhua smiled, slowly reached out and took off the spider web from the old man's head, and threw it into the stove.
"You are so old that you can't play chess against a little girl. If I were Zhou Ye, I wouldn't play with you."
When the old man heard this, his face showed no concern.
"You used to play chess with me every day, but now your legs and feet are not good, otherwise I wouldn't let that little girl accompany me. She plays chess very fiercely, leaving no escape route for herself or others."< br>
Qinhua flicked the fire on the stove and continued chatting with him.
"Didn't you say before that quality of chess reflects character? After playing a round, what do you think of that girl's character?"
This actually made the old man's face sink, and he thought seriously for a while. After a while, he patted his leg.
"She is just a naive girl with no authority. She is too straight-tempered and has a bad temper. But she is very interesting when playing chess. She will protect the weak soldiers on the chessboard and charge into the battle with her coolness. She has superb chess skills but no rules. , so rampant that you were defeated.”
