Chapter 161: When people care, they have a destination

People change. Just because Chao Gai likes sticks doesn't mean he doesn't like women.

It's just that in the past, his energy was all on those political affairs, and he always felt that drinking and eating meat was more interesting than women.

Once people encounter despair and are on the verge of death, they can't help but think of the idea of ​​reproducing future generations.

In the past, Chao Gai was a very wealthy man. Wherever he went, he was surrounded by people, and he was rarely alone.

When he becomes the commander of the navy, it will be completely different.

He now has a small courtyard of his own, with no bankers and no servants.

Chao Gai stared at the young lady in front of him, somewhat in disbelief.

He was still holding a plate of hot sesame cakes in his hand, as if he had forgotten it, and just stared at Chen Qian'er.

Chen Qian'er had mixed feelings in her heart. She was betting on her fate.

She remembered the words of the eldest brother on the ship. The commander in front of her clearly had a high status and was extremely decisive in his actions.

"The civilian girl didn't mean to hide it, she was just afraid of attracting bad people and ruining my innocence. Please don't blame me, Commander." Chen Qian'er said cautiously.

Chao Gai laughed loudly and then looked away, but he couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.

Chen Qian'er was also keenly aware of the meaning contained in the other person's eyes.

She had always been very proud of her appearance, and Chao Gai's reaction was obviously in line with her expectations.

Chao Gai put the sesame cakes on the table and suddenly wanted to laugh: "Then Liu Heizi said you were ugly, but I didn't expect you to be beautiful."

"The commander originally wanted to find someone to help him, but he didn't think about appearance at all." Chen Qian'er also said.

Chao Gai nodded: "It's really interesting to talk to smart people."

When he first chose this girl, he really liked her because she was "ugly and dark". Chao Gai felt that this would save him a lot of trouble and would not make him have any other thoughts.

But what’s the result?

It turns out that the things on his face were all deliberately done by him.

If that guy Liu Heizi knew about it, I'm afraid there would be another round of ridicule.

Chao Gai looked over again and saw that the girl was wearing his clothes. Even though it was the smallest clothes she could find, it was still very big when it fell on Chen Qian'er, as if she was wearing a large robe. A closer look showed how petite and cute this girl was.

This girl's skin is very white, her eyes are big and black, she has thin eyebrows, a high bridge of nose, light pink lips, and her iconic oval face. Although she is thin, her natural beauty cannot be concealed.

"Gu Gu Gu~~"

At this time, there was a sound from the little girl's stomach.

"Alas!" Chen Qian'er covered her belly with one hand and lowered her head in shame. The smell of the hot sesame cakes made her index finger twitch, and her five internal organs were protesting.

She was seasick in the morning and had no appetite at all. By this moment, she was really hungry.

However, Chen Qian'er felt really sad when a grown man heard her looking so embarrassed.

Chao Gai instantly noticed her thoughts, sat down quietly, and said softly: "People will be hungry, so eat first to fill your stomach. From now on, you will live here. Don't worry about other things."

Chen Qian'er still wanted to struggle a few times and stood in front of the stone table. She really didn't want to look like a starving ghost.

Chao Gai showed a fatherly smile and instantly understood what the girl was thinking. He immediately picked up a piece of cake and handed it to her hand: "You eat the cake, I'll go out first."

He did this just because he didn't want to embarrass the other party.

Chen Qian'er pinched the slightly hot sesame cake in her hand, and the scent of grain rushed into her nose, refreshing her heart and mind.

She looked at Chao Gai's tall figure and left straight away, heading out of the yard.

"Please don't leave." I don't know why, Chen Qian'er suddenly said.

Chao Gai turned his head and looked at Chen Qian'er with confusion.

Chen Qian'er was also surprised at herself, why she dared to come up with this idea. Now that the matter has come to this, she seems to be willing to give up: "After my parents passed away, I never ate with anyone again. I thought..."

Before Chen Qian'er could finish speaking, the softness in Chao Gai's heart was instantly touched.

Chao Gai looked at her, sitting alone on the stone bench, her small shoulders shaking slightly, she was really pitiful.

For some reason, at this moment, Chao Gai suddenly thought of what brother Lin Chong said.

This world has been completely changed, with treacherous ministers in power, incompetent officials, widespread corruption, and lax military preparedness, but ultimately the people suffer.

What happened to this little girl who originally came from a wealthy family? Her family was ruined and she became a slave. If Liangshan hadn't rescued her, what would have been her future fate?

It's really unknowable.

At this moment, Chao Gai finally understood what Lin Chong meant by what he said.

"It is said that saving the world's common people has only been seen in history books before. Only today did I know that there are real heroes who do such things." Chao Gai understood in an instant. At this moment, he admired Lin Chong even more.

At this moment, many of Chao Gai's past thoughts underwent drastic changes.

"Okay! I'll accompany you!" Chao Gai stood up, sat across from the girl, picked up the sesame cake, and the two of them started eating together.

Chen Qian'er held the cake with both hands and felt that today's sesame cake was particularly fragrant and delicious.

"I will do my best in the future and will not let you down."

"I am a warrior. I usually train soldiers. I don't stay at home often. You don't have much to do. I just wear ordinary clothes." Chao Gai said, "When I finish my work, you can do whatever you want, everywhere.

It’s okay to wander around. But, you can’t leave Liangshan without permission.”

"I understand. I will take care of this family." Chen Qian'er put down the cake and nodded solemnly.

Home?

Chao Gai's heart moved inexplicably. He hadn't heard the word home for a long time.

Ever since the birthday party incident happened, he seems to have been afraid to mention the word family.

However, when this little girl said she was leaving home, he seemed to have found his home.

At this moment, Chao Gai suddenly thought of what brother Lin Chong said.

Once a person has a care, he has a destination. Is this what home means?

"You go and have a rest later, and then you can get back to work tomorrow."

"No, after I eat well, I will wash and dry the clothes for the master. I can't be a freeloader. I have to clean the small yard so that you can have hot meals and warm wine every time you come back."

Chen Qian'er said seriously.

Chao Gai laughed loudly. For some reason, he was looking forward to it.

"Okay, then it seems that my luck has come, Chao Gaishun. Chao Gaishun said casually, and then seemed to think of something, "Wait for me for a while, and I will have something that I can use as a meeting gift."

Meeting gift?

Chen Qian'er tilted her head, a little confused.

After a while, Chao Gai walked out of the inner room, took out a small object and put it on the table.

"This thing is called Tianxiang. Even though it is small, it is extremely expensive. It can be sold for ten taels of gold in Tokyo. I have also made a contribution and received a reward from the boss. But this thing is for my daughter's family. It is useless to leave it to me.

Since you are here today, I just want to give it to you as a gift." Chao Gai said in a deep voice.

A gift?

Chen Qian'er's eyes turned slightly red. She had not received any gifts for two years since her parents passed away.

At this moment, Chen Qian'er's eyes were filled with tears. She pinched Tianxiang, but her tears fell down.

"Don't you like it?" Chao Gai was a little at a loss.

If Lin Chong saw this scene, he would definitely laugh and say that Chao Gai was born a strong and straight man.

Chen Qian'er shook her head, pinched Tianxiang, and said after a while: "I like it, I like it very much. I was so happy that I cried with joy."

Chao Gai then breathed a sigh of relief. Alas, this woman also cried when she was sad and also when she was happy.

He is a big old man, he is really confused.

"The head of the house said that this is for us women, what is it for?" Chen Qian'er asked curiously, "This thing is worth ten taels of gold, it is too precious. The head of the house does not receive salary for no merit, but I still can't accept it.

, I accept your wishes."

Chao Gai was a little surprised. Hearing this girl say this, he had a better impression of her.

"No matter how expensive the thing is, it is for use." Chao Gai said nonchalantly, "Take it! This thing is used to scrub the body with water when bathing. It can clean the skin and produce a very fragrant smell."

"ah……"

When Chao Gai said such a private matter, Chen Qian'er felt like she was holding a hot potato.

She couldn't even help but think that if she hadn't known that the head of the house was so careless, someone else might have thought that he did it deliberately and it was just a hint.

This is a private thing belonging to my daughter's family, and I would generally not talk about it rashly.

However, Chen Qian'er probably also knew that the boss in front of her rarely interacted with women.

"God has mercy on me and allowed me to meet such a good master." The big stone hanging in Chen Qian'er's heart, the most terrifying and frightening scene, luckily it never happened.

She even prepared for the worst, but luckily she was lucky enough to protect him in the end.
