Xu Qing's mood was very complicated.
The person he had been teasing for a long time was even fiercer than a vicious dog.
Yet, she acted like a little rabbit.
"Even if you drag me with one hand and carry cotton pants on your back, Jiang He, are you still invincible in the world?"
He looked at Jiang He's clean little face with a strange expression.
"Ah?"
"What ah … Wait for me to make a call."
Xu Qing took out his phone and dialed the police number. He briefly explained the location and the appearance of the dog.
"It looks like a mad dog and is very aggressive."
He emphasized one last time and hung up the phone before looking back at the surveillance cameras.
There was no need to mobilize so many people to catch a vicious dog.
Even if someone really found out, no one would believe that this silly girl scared the dog away.
Jiang He followed behind him and sorted out his thoughts. What was he thinking about just now?
Yes, a weak girl …
"You're quite good at acting." Xu Qing felt that he had been careless. This girl killed without batting an eyelid. Her eyes would not even dry …
Yet, she acted like a little animal every day, wearing an apron and dragging her feet to cook. Her little butt would even twist and turn.
"What are you pretending for?" Jiang He's eyes widened.
"Do your eyes dry when you slash people?"
"I don't do it."
"…"
Under the winter sun, the powder blue down jacket reflected the warm light. Jiang He's face was blank. Her eyes that were full of heroic spirit when she first came had become a lot softer because she had put on a little weight.
The image in front of him slowly overlapped with the image of her pointing a sword at him when she first came to Xu Qing's eyes.
"I'm really brave."
Xu Qing shook his head with a smile. He held her hand tightly and turned to continue walking.
"Remember, you're a girl."
"And then?" Jiang He did not understand.
"Girls should be held in the palm of your hand. You should act scared and hide behind me, not roll up your sleeves and fight with the dog."
"I didn't fight with the dog."
"You almost hit it. What if you dirty your shoes by kicking it?" Xu Qing said patiently, "Always remember that you are a girl. If you want kisses, hugs, and lifts … Alright, I won't go too far. Anyway, don't lower yourself to the level of a dog. People won't be bullied by dogs, but there's no need to."
"We can avoid it and spend some time to make a call to the public security department to deal with it. If you fight with it, the moment it touches you, you've already lost. It doesn't matter if you dirty your clothes or shoes, it's an unnecessary trouble. Do you understand?"
"I don't understand."
"Because it's just a dog. It's not worth your trouble.
Hmm … Just like that Liangzi, he's no different from that dog. Originally, the two of us were having a good time, but he insisted on provoking me. If I pay attention to him, I'll lose. He'll waste our time whispering to each other with his worthless time. That's a huge loss. "
"Then why did you hit him?"
"Because he provoked you."
"…"
The two of them walked out of the path of the barber shop and strolled along the street.
"You're a girl. In the future, you don't need to wield a sword and risk your life against others. You just need to enjoy life." Xu Qing paused for a moment and said, "At most, you can use a knife to cook — do you miss your previous life of licking blood with a knife?"
Jiang He was silent for a moment. She looked up at the sky and sighed. "When there's a stable life, who would like to risk their life against others?"
"That's right. Let's live a good life in the future."
??
Jiang He felt that she was trapped again. She lowered her head and didn't say a word.
After a while, she responded with an almost inaudible "Mm".
Living a good life … is probably like this?
Xu Qing didn't notice her hesitation and strolled around according to the planned route.
The two of them strolled around for the whole morning. They had their hair cut, their nails done, and they bought two sets of clothes. They tried on everything in the shop first before buying. It was perfect.
B … Pfft.
They went home with the clothes they bought. They didn't cook. They ate fried pancakes outside and then continued to buy chicken, duck, fish, dried fruits, and fruits. They brought back big and small bags and put them on the table. It was obvious that they were preparing for the New Year.
The fish was alive, so they put it in a bucket to be eaten in a few days. The duck was roasted. They were afraid that Jiang He was not familiar with it and it would be too hard to stew. After roasting it, they could just chop it and pour some sauce on it.
They didn't buy pork. Instead, they bought a few pounds of mutton and went back to make mutton dumplings. Jiang He didn't know how to make dumplings. Xu Qing had already planned to take her home to learn from Zhou Suzhi.
"Stop looking! Come and help me. Bring the glue. "
As soon as they bought the couplets, Xu Qing put them on and urged Jiang He, who was looking down at the flowers on her nails.
If they didn't put up the couplets during the New Year, they didn't feel comfortable going home. They always felt that no one lived in the old house.
"If you live in the countryside, you have to buy two paintings of door gods and put them on the door. You should be familiar with Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong … Oh, they are from the early Tang Dynasty. You are a few emperors away from them."
While squeezing the glue, he pressed the couplets on the wall. Xu Qing nagged. When he finished, he pressed the couplets again. He clapped his hands and took two steps back to look at his masterpiece.
Slowly, the universe grows old.
Dazzling the sun and the moon.
Horizontal: Celebrate the New Year!
"How is it?" Xu Qing turned his head and asked. He was very satisfied with the couplets he had chosen.
"It doesn't seem to be as long as other people's."
Jiang He looked left and right. She felt that six words were not as domineering as other people's ten words.
"Why do you compare the length of the couplets … Do you like long ones?"
"I think the long meaning is good."
"Then I have a good meaning." Xu Qing chuckled. Under her puzzled gaze, he took the glue back into the house. Then he came out and pressed it hard, for fear that it would fall.
"Oh, you stuck it on just like that?"
The chubby Cheng Yulan was holding Xiaoyan's hand as they walked down the stairs. They happened to see the two of them standing at the door and fiddling with the couplets.
"Yeah … It just so happens that Auntie helped us take a photo. It's right here at the door."
Xu Qing ran into the house, took out his phone, and handed it to Cheng Yulan. He closed the door and stood together with Jiang He, looking like a country bumpkin. He didn't make any hand gestures, just put one hand down, and held her hand with the other. He smiled brightly.
"I have to take two steps back … Okay, don't move." Cheng Yulan took the mobile phone and found the right angle. "Take another photo."
She took two photos and clicked her tongue. "Not bad. Your hair is well groomed.
Are you two going to spend the New Year here? "
"Where else? Hehe, are you going out?"
"We're going out for a walk!" Xiaoyan answered immediately.
Cheng Yulan was even more certain that the two of them were preparing to get married.
They would spend the New Year together, so there was a good chance they would be together.
After the two of them left, Xu Qing saw that the couplets were firmly stuck on the wall. The glue was half dry, so he stopped fiddling with it. He took Jiang He back to the house and closed the door. He tidied up the pile of New Year goods on the table and chased away White Gourd, who was sniffing around.
Fortunately, the roast duck was tightly wrapped, or the cat would have tasted it first.
"Close the kitchen door. Don't let it in to play with the fish."
After everything was tidied up, Xu Qing sat in front of the computer and turned it on. He connected his mobile phone to the computer and backed up the photos.
Jiang He grabbed a handful of pine nuts that she had bought and crunched them. She sat at the side and watched him work, eating one after another.
"Can I have one?" Xu Qing asked.
"Here."
The guy did not take it. He opened his mouth and tilted his head. "Ah …"
Jiang He blinked and threw the pine nuts into his mouth as if he was feeding a dog.
"It feels weird."
Xu Qing chewed the pine nuts and shrugged. He showed her the photo they had just taken.
"Why are you smiling so stupidly?" Jiang He asked.
"It's because you are too serious."
On the screen.
Xu Qing, who was smiling stupidly, and Jiang He, who looked serious, stood at the door and stared at the camera. Behind them was the dark red door and the brand-new couplets on both sides.
The way he stood and the composition of the picture were very old.
