: Eating Melon in the Age of Literature (5)

Everything was going on in the courtyard, but Gu Qingcheng didn't know it.

She led Qiao Qiao out of the alley and walked towards the machine factory.

The full name of the machinery factory is Five Star Machinery Factory. It is a medium-sized factory with more than 1,000 employees.

Including family members, there are three to four thousand people.

The machinery factory has its own canteen, school and hospital.

Most of the residents in nearby courtyards are employees of machinery factories.

After walking out of the alley and walking north for ten minutes, you will see the gate of the machinery factory.

In front of the machine factory is a spacious road, and the spacious door has a strong sense of age.

There are slogans painted on the walls on both sides.

Gu Qingcheng stood across the road, looking at the appearance of the machinery factory.

"Mom, shall we go find daddy?"

Three-year-old Qiao Qiao is in a state of confusion.

She can already understand adults' words, but she can't understand them.

A few days ago, there were always people saying things like "poor" and "losing her father at such a young age" in front of her.

Qiao Qiao didn't understand how she could "lost her father", while Qiao'er had a father!

Dad also liked her very much and would secretly give her a piece of candy or a piece of meat every time he got off work.

However, she did not see her father during this period of time.

The little girl was very frightened.

But she has learned to read people's faces.

Grandpa has a gloomy face, and he often loses his temper while drinking.

Grandma was either wiping away tears or scolding her mother, looking at her with disgust.

As for mother, she is still pregnant with her brother, but she is busy inside and outside.

Working from morning to night, mother and daughter finally slept together at night. Before Qiao Qiao could ask anything, mother fell asleep.

Qiao Qiao didn't dare to ask. He didn't have time to ask, and the doubts in his heart were piling up.

She also became more and more frightened.

Today grandma was scolding mom again. Mom didn't cry and apologize as usual, but took her out.

Qiao Qiao had a hunch that her life might change.

Now we came to the familiar road.

Qiao Qiao didn't know the road, but she remembered the five little stars carved on the screen wall at the entrance of the machinery factory.

In my memory, my father often carried her here to play.

The uncles and aunts who came in and out of the factory also liked to tease and talk to her.

Every time she talks in a sweet voice according to the adults' wishes, her father will smile happily.

This time my mother brought her here, is she looking for her father?

If Qiaoer talks more, will he be able to see his father? Will his father be happy?

"Qiao'er, dad is dead! He is a hero who saves people!"

Gu Qingcheng knelt down and looked level with Qiao Qiao.

She didn't coax, but told the truth directly.

Three-year-old children are indeed not very sensible, but they should learn to be sensible.

"died?"

"Yes! He turned into a star and went to the sky!"

"...Then will I be able to see my father again?"

"No! But there are photos of dad at home. If you miss dad, you can look at the photos!"

"Wow~ I miss daddy! I miss daddy!!"

Qiao Qiao finally understood the meaning of "death": her father had turned into a photo and could no longer hold Qiao'er.

Gu Qingcheng hugged Qiao Qiao hard and patted her back gently.

She didn't say too many words. The pain of losing her father cannot be comforted by just a few words.

It doesn't matter if you cry, the atmosphere in Qiao's family has been too depressing recently.

The three-year-old was frightened.

Cry and release your emotions, and the three of them, mother and son, will live a good life in the future!

After crying for a while, Qiao Qiao didn't know whether she was tired from crying or had already accepted this fact.

She squirmed and didn't continue to cry.

Gu Qingcheng took out a blue-checked handkerchief with a white background from his trouser pocket and carefully wiped Qiao Qiao's face clean.

"Executor, what are you going to do? Deliberately take the child to a place she is familiar with, then tell her the cruel truth, and then make her cry?"

Huoshui couldn't understand Gu Qingcheng's operation, so he couldn't help but jump out and ask.

Gu Qingcheng secretly rolled his eyes, "Yes! I did it on purpose! Who told me to be a bad person?"

Huoshui: ...Although I always secretly diss your character, I also know that you are not a boring person.

Gu Qingcheng always has a purpose in everything he does.

She always has a target in mind!

However, Huoshui still couldn't imagine what "plan" Gu Qingcheng could have.

Gu Qingcheng: ...You little retard, of course you can’t guess it.

Gu Qingcheng also obtained such useful information from the corner of the original owner's memory.

She had an idea instantly.

However, before that, she still needs to make preparations.

Gu Qingcheng thought, and with a swish sound, a transparent system panel appeared in front of her.

Her eyes fell on the "lattice space".

Activate your thoughts, and the powerful pills placed in the grid space disappear instantly.

A pill appeared in Gu Qingcheng's palm.

She held Qiao Qiao with one hand, raised her other hand and gently brushed her lips, and Daliwan entered her mouth instantly.

Malisin-sized pills melt in your mouth and are absorbed by the body instantly.

Gu Qingcheng felt that he suddenly had endless strength.

The child, who weighs more than 20 kilograms, initially found it difficult to hold.

But at this moment, Gu Qingcheng seemed not to feel Qiao Qiao's weight.

To Gu Qingcheng, Qiao Qiao was probably as good as a feather.

"This Dali Pill is indeed miraculous."

Gu Qingcheng gently clenched his fist, the vigorous power seemed to be extremely important.

"Executor, why do you want to take Dali Pill?"

"Do you want to rely on this amazing power to find a job in a machinery factory?"

"Executors are now industrialized, and human power is not so important!"

Huoshui became more and more confused and couldn't help but chatter in the depths of Gu Qingcheng's sea of ​​consciousness.

Gu Qingcheng was so annoyed by it that with a thought, he locked Huoshui into the small dark room.

Huoshui was forced to "turn off the microphone" in an instant, and Gu Qingcheng's ears were finally quiet.

After a while, three or four large trucks slowly came from one side.

"coming!"

Gu Qingcheng's eyes lit up, and she crossed the street with her child in her arms.

Yesterday, the original owner had a "heart-to-heart" chat with Lu Xinhua.

While chatting, Lu Xinhua mentioned that a batch of important equipment would be shipped to the factory this afternoon.

Lu Xinhua is a porter in the machinery factory. If there is any purchase or shipment in the factory, they will know in advance.
