Chapter 417 The Little Match Selling Roses
Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, then he squatted down with a smile and looked at the little girl, "Little girl, come on, praise us, I will buy more"
"This My sister is so beautiful. She is like a goddess descending to earth. She is as beautiful as the fairy sister on TV." A smile appeared on the corner of Mo Li's mouth. Although she is usually quite cold, she was praised by others, especially on such a joyful day. A little girl praised me, which made her quite happy.
“No more?” When Liu Jun heard this, why should he praise Mo Li instead of him? Praise him.
"No, no" the little girl was a little timid.
"Come on, praise me." Liu Jun took out a hundred-dollar bill and shook it.
The girl looked at the hundred-dollar bill longingly, hesitated for a while, and finally shook her head, "Brother, grandma won't let me lie."
"... Damn, I Mom still won’t let me spend money randomly, buy a rose with a hammer.” Liu Jun collapsed, is he so ugly?
"Brother, just buy one for your sister!" As she said that, the little girl quickly grabbed Liu Jun's sleeve, for fear that Liu Jun would not buy it.
"Come on, praise me, praise me and I will buy it." The little girl hesitated again, and then walked towards another couple, leaving Liu Jun in tears, deeply doubting his life.
Although the light was dim, Mo Li still saw tears flashing in the little girl's eyes. She turned around and left, continuing to look for couples. However, the next few couples rejected the little girl without hesitation. After all, even if I buy it, I will only buy fresh roses.
“Little sister, wait!”
Looking at the little girl blowing in the night wind, Mo Li walked over, squatted down, and randomly selected among the little girl’s roses. One flower.
Holding the rose, Mo Li looked up at Liu Jun and said only a few words, "The flowers are very fragrant, I like them."
"Isn't he handsome? He's handsome, and Mo Li doesn't dislike him." Liu Jun strode over, asked about the price, took nine flowers, and handed the hundred-yuan bill to the little girl.
"Thank you, brother and sister!" The little girl who was about to cry just now showed her white teeth.
It was just the hundred-dollar bill that Liu Jun gave to the little girl, which made the little girl a little embarrassed. She didn't sell a single flower, and there was neither change nor change. Liu Jun and Mo Li were Her first order.
“Brother, I didn’t sell a single flower today, why not give it to me when you have some change!” The little girl’s immature hands were holding a hundred yuan, and there were tears on the little girl’s face. , said with a serious face.
"Huh? It's okay, little girl, count how much these roses cost. My brother has packed them all." Liu Jun makes money much easier now. Although he didn't check how much money was in his card, it was tens of millions. There are still some, so he is also an invisible rich man.
The little girl couldn't believe her ears "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Mo Li glanced at Liu Jun, squatted down, and helped the little girl count the roses.
The total amount of roses was a little more than 300 yuan. Liu Jun gave 500 yuan, but the little girl insisted not to take it and only agreed to take 300 yuan. In the end, Liu Jun could not resist her and had to agree.
"By the way, little girl, would you mind telling me your name, brother or sister?" Liu Jun thought for a while and asked.
"Of course you can. Grandma said you can't tell bad people your name, but my brother and sister are good people, so I can tell you. Brother and sister, my name is Little Match."
"The rose seller Little match?" Liu Jun had a strange expression.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Little Match looked innocent.
"It's okay, it's okay." Liu Jun waved his hands repeatedly. The name was quite casual.
The roses were sold, which made the little girl very happy. She jumped up and bid farewell to Liu Jun and the others, "Brother, sister, goodbye!"
Liu Jun and Mo Li waved to the little girl. The girl said goodbye and looked at the little girl's back, feeling much relieved.
Although the roses in her hands were a little dry and withered, Mo Li didn't dislike them at all. Instead, she felt they were very beautiful. This was the first time she had received roses from the opposite sex, and Liuli had only given them to the same sex. He glanced at Liu Jun and said, "Let's go!"
After Liu Jun Moli turned around and walked away for a while, Liuli jumped over and came looking for him.
"Parents nowadays are really irresponsible. There are so many people, and a child just goes out to hang out by himself. If I hadn't blocked him just now, the child would be gone." Liuli picked up something in front of a stall. , said indifferently.
Liu Jun and Mo Li looked at each other and asked at the same time: "Liu Li, what kind of kid are you? What did you just block?"
What they both thought about at the same time was that they had just sold roses. Little matches, because New Year’s Eve is such a lively time when many children go out, accompanied by a bunch of relatives and parents. "I don't know what it is. It seems to be a cat demon with a bit of corpse energy. I also forgot about the little girl. I only remember that she had two ponytails and she looked quite innocent and cute."
"Which direction are you going?" Liu Jun and Mo Li thought at the same time that this girl was Little Match. Although Liuli was blocked, whether the opponent was a cat demon or a corpse demon, it was impossible to give up after finding the target, so Little Match was in danger.
The two of them ran in the direction Liuli pointed. In the chaotic flow of people, their eyes fell on an old lady with tattered clothes and a stooped back. At this moment, the old lady looked like a beggar. He was silently following behind a little girl. Judging from her back and clothes, she looked like a little match.
"How can we do it? Just take it away?" Liu Jun frowned.
"No, there are too many people." Mo Li shook his head and frowned, but this place was crowded. If they angered each other and caused other casualties, they would regret it to death.
“Damn, this dirty guy actually works overtime during the Chinese New Year, which makes me have to work overtime too. I really want to chop her up.” Liu Jun gritted his teeth and looked at the old lady.
"Calm down, let's follow him first. This dirty thing will definitely not attack in a crowded place, as long as we don't disturb it." Mo Li motioned to Liu Jun to calm down a little.
As he said that, Liu Jun and the others followed quietly. The little girl was still immersed in excitement and did not notice the danger at all.
Fireworks bloomed in the night sky, people were noisy, and Little Match walked out of the square.
Because of New Year's Eve, except for the square, the streets were still very deserted. Under the street lights, the shadows of small matches danced. After crossing two streets, I saw no one around. The old lady who was following me finally wanted to take action. .
The hunchbacked old lady took two quick steps and caught up with the little match, making a hoarse sound in her throat.
"Little girl, why are you alone at night? It's very dangerous. Where are your parents?"
The hunchbacked old lady's old face is very weathered, with no trace of flesh under the wrinkled skin, and those shadowy eyes The blue eyes were shocking, and although they were smiling, they were dark.
The appearance of the hunchbacked old lady startled Little Match, and he blinked his big eyes and said, "My parents don't want me anymore, and my grandma is also sick. Grandma, are you alone too?"
"Yes, where do you live?" The hunchbacked old lady tried to keep her tone calm.
“My home is in the suburbs!”
Little Match showed no signs of wariness against this hunchbacked old lady who suddenly appeared. "What a coincidence, I am also in the suburbs!" the hunchbacked old lady said with a smile.
As everyone knows, the hunchbacked old lady distracted her attention by chatting with the little match. She quietly grabbed the little match with her other hand. It was not a human hand at all. It was covered with yellow hair and nails. It was black, reflecting a sharp cold light under the light.
Seeing that the claws were about to fall, the corners of the hunchbacked old woman's mouth inadvertently raised.
"Little match!"
Liu Jun's voice suddenly came, making the hunchbacked old lady look panicked and quickly retracted her paws.
Little Match turned his head and shouted happily, "Brother, sister!"
Seeing that his success was about to be destroyed, the hunchbacked old lady was so angry that her body was shaking, and she stared at Liu Jun and Moli with hateful eyes. .
Mo Li stepped forward, hugged the little match into his arms, put his hands in front of him to protect the little match, and took a deep look at the hunchbacked old lady.
“Sister, this old lady lives in the same place as me!” Little Match looked innocent.
"Really? Where do you live?" Mo Li asked, holding Little Match's cold hand.
"Suburbs!"
"What a coincidence, brother and sister are going there too, how about we come together!" Mo Li said, gently touching the little match's head.
"Of course! Little Match likes his brother and sister." Little Match looked happy and nodded repeatedly.
