The crowd around looked at the man who ran away like a gust of wind, looked at each other for a while, and then looked at Gu Lang, who was standing at the door calmly and unhurt.

"What was the situation just now? Didn't you say that the boy would teach him a lesson?"

"That's how I see him running as if he was running for his life."

"Let me say, no matter how arrogant he is, he can't beat people in the street! If he doesn't, he will run away."

Faced with all kinds of gazes, Gu Lang stood there silently, looked at them with a smile, raised the volume a little, and said warmly:

After that, no matter what status or status you are, we will not make an exception!"

When they heard Gu Lang's words, the people below felt that he was very loud, and some were unconvinced and even wanted to sneer, but before they were about to speak, they thought of the fast-running county master just now Nephew, he swallowed the words he originally wanted to ridicule, and looked at Gu Lang with a bit more complicated eyes.

Gu Lang saw that almost all of the people below had listened to what he had said, and continued: "The visitors are customers, and we welcome you to visit in the future!"

After speaking, Gu Lang no longer cared about the reactions of those people, and turned around and entered the store.

Qiu Jiu glanced at the people who were still talking about Gu Lang's words, then looked at Gu Lang, who had turned away, and quickly chased after him.

Seeing Gu Lang returning to the backstage, Qiu Jiu did not immediately return to her post, but struggled for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Master, why did you do that just now? Do?"

Gu Lang casually flipped through the ledger and asked without raising his head, "Are you talking about my teaching that son, or what I just preached in person?"

Hearing his young master ask this, Qiu Jiu knew that he was going to answer him, and immediately said: "All."

Gu Lang glanced at today's accounts, very satisfied with today's income, then raised his head to look at his stupid subordinate, and explained:

"Teach that person a lesson in public. First, it is to kill chickens and warn monkeys, which can prevent more people from looking for trouble in the future. Second, it is to let the people watching the excitement around have more talk, and also let our store The reputation spreads farther."

Qiu Jiu listened, with a look of sudden realization on his face, gave Gu Lang a thumbs up, and said with sincere admiration: "You are still brilliant."

The corner of Gu Lang's mouth ticked slightly, looking at the subordinate who left with a look of admiration, and lowered his eyebrows at the ledger in his hand. In fact, there was another reason he didn't say just now. The reason why he chose such a tactful way to persuade the troublemaker, instead of using a more radical method, was because of his uncle, the current county magistrate. Seeing that the county magistrate had helped him so much, he still decided to let him go.

Just for that reason, Gu Lang felt that he didn't need to explain to Qiu Jiu, he only needed to know the first and second points.

With a look of admiration on his face, Qiu Jiu re-engaged in serving the guests, and he didn't have time to stop and rest until the last table of guests' dishes were all served.

Gu Lang sat leisurely behind the counter, looked at the remaining two tables of customers in the store, pondered for two seconds, waved his hand and stood beside him to rest, showing a bit of Qiu Jiu's way of doing nothing Come over, let him stand in his place to collect the money, walk slowly to the counter next to him, and walk in the direction of the back kitchen.

Looking at the direction where Gu Lang was leaving, Qiu Jiu shook his head in disapproval, "Young master is really, I went to see Chen Xing again, I'll see you soon."

Gu Lang didn't know that Qiu Jiu was muttering to himself behind his back, even if he did, he wouldn't care.

Gu Lang walked to the back kitchen, bypassed the helper who was sweeping the floor, the helper who was cleaning the dishes, nodded when they said hello to him, and then saw sitting on the reclining chair under the corridor, Chen Xing, who was beating his hand with pain on his face.

Gu Lang stopped for a moment as he walked over, then he sped up a lot, and came to Chen Xing's side in three steps and two steps.

down.

Gu Lang looked at the smile on Chen Xing's face, came to him, moved a small bench and sat beside him, looked at him and asked with concern: "What's wrong with the arm? ?"

Faced with Gu Lang, who was close to him, Chen Xing answered with a bit of coquettish coquettishness that he hadn't even noticed himself, "Too many dishes are ordered today, I can't handle it, now pain."

Gu Lang looked at the grievances on Chen Xing's face that he didn't even notice, pulled his hand under his doubtful eyes and massaged him gently , "I'll press it for you, it will be more comfortable to press."

Feeling Gu Lang's movements, Chen Xing felt a little embarrassed. When he wanted to withdraw his hand, Gu Lang didn't know where he pressed it, and pressed it hard, it hurt him. The son called out, "Ah!"

Gu Lang listened to his cry, turned his head to look at him, a little doubt in his eyes, as if he didn't quite understand what happened to him.

Chen Xing was also a little embarrassed by the call just now, with tears in the corners of his eyes, he looked at Gu Lang with blushing, and said in a low voice and embarrassed: " It just hurt a little bit just now, I didn't mean to."

Gu Lang looked at him and raised his eyebrows, wondering: "It hurts? But I remember, it'll be fine if you press it!"

He stared at Gu Lang, his eyes full of shock, as if he didn't quite understand why this happened.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's silly face, slightly raised the corners of his lips, and said warmly, "How?"

"I, I don't seem to be as sour as before!" Chen Xing knew that massage could relieve fatigue, but did not expect that massage could relieve fatigue so quickly.

Gu Lang looked at his silly appearance, did not say anything more, just asked him to give him the other hand, and he pressed it as well.

Chen Xing nodded very obediently and passed his hand. He watched Gu Lang massage himself seriously, and looked at his lowered eyebrows, and ripples began to appear in his heart.

Until Gu Lang finished massaging him and put down his hand, he still didn't come back to his senses.

"Okay."

Gu Lang's voice was like a foreign object dripping into the calm lake, causing ripples in it.

When Gu Lang raised his eyes to meet his eyes, Chen Xing suddenly came back to his senses, and withdrew his eyes at once, as if eager to change the subject: "You How can you massage so well?"

As soon as he asked this sentence, Chen Xing suddenly remembered Gu Lang's previous experience that he had heard before, and suddenly thought whether he would learn skills while seeking a living outside.

In just a moment, Chen Xing made up for a lonely child who was struggling to survive, had to learn to be courteous, learned to please others, and practiced such a skill so well it is good.

At this moment, Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang with love and love in his eyes, as if he saw a child who has suffered for many years.

Gu Lang didn't know what Chen Xing was thinking about, because he was drooping his eyebrows at this time, and some complicated emotions were rolling in his eyes, as if he was alone in some kind of distant memory In the middle of it, he then smiled softly, and in Chen Xing's inexplicable eyes, his eyes were gentle, and he said softly: "Because, I used to flatter my father like this all the time."

Chen Xing: ? ? ?

This answer is completely different from what he imagined.

Gu Lang looked at the stunned look in Chen Xing's eyes, the smile on his face became bigger and bigger, and the expression on his face was extraordinarily gentle, so gentle that Chen Xing was a little suspicious of Gu Lang in normal times Never showed such an expression.

Gu Lang seemed to be looking at Chen Xing, but also seemed not to look at him again, as if he was looking at some kind of picture from a long time ago, his voice was very soft,

“I am the youngest child in the family, and the youngest one in the family. I grew up in the love of my parents from childhood to adulthood. It rains when it rains, so I have a somewhat domineering personality. I am not allowed to do it on weekdays, but I have to do it. It is common to invite cats and dogs, and destroy porcelain."

Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang's memory, and never imagined that such a gentle-looking boy would be so mischievous before.

Gu Lang didn't pay attention to Chen Xing, and continued: "At that time, my mother and grandmother were very fond of me, as long as I admit a mistake and act coquettishly, I can be gently let go. Only my father has always been very strict with me. Whenever I find out that I have done something wrong again, he will either spank me or ask me to go to the spiritual seat of my ancestors to repent.

Although I was young at that time, I also felt a little bit ashamed. I felt that if I were beaten like this by my father, I would lose face. But I'm not too old, and I can't resist, but if I don't touch those things, I can't do it.

So, I went to my grandmother's maid to learn such a skill. Whenever I did something wrong, I would go to my father first to please, and then my father even knew about me. I can't bear to be too harsh on what I did wrong. "

When Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang and said these words, the smile on his face never went down, and even more, there was a bit of light on his face that he couldn't understand.

Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang must miss the time at that time. After all, to be able to shape a urchin into the silent appearance he is today, that child must have experienced many things on the road.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing's nose is suddenly a little sour. Before he came here, he was spoiled by his family since childhood. Even after coming here, I quickly adapted to the environment here, and I didn't suffer much. It's not like Gu Lang at all. He was raised coquettishly from a young age, but later he had to bear the hatred of his family being destroyed, and he needed to go out to seek a living at such a young age. It was really pitiful.

Gu Lang didn't know what Chen Xing was thinking, and when he pulled away from his memory, he looked at his red eyes, thinking that his hand was still hurting, and said to him warmly: "You every day It’s not good for your body to work hard like this, so let’s think of other ways to lighten your burden.”

The author has something to say: Today is also a day that can’t last forever.
