Ran Qiu pinched his brows with a headache and asked helplessly, "What on earth does Song Zhiqing want to do?"
Ran Qiu looked at her calmly. His eyes were not sharp, but he saw through everything.
Seeing this, Song Zhi coughed lightly: "It's not a big deal."
She recounted the story, her expression filled with helplessness.
"This is what happened. The dormitory for the educated youth collapsed and needed to be rebuilt. The team leader asked the educated youth to find a place to live on their own."
Hearing this, Ran Qiu had already guessed everything. He raised his eyes and looked at her in surprise.
Sure enough, the next second Song Zhi continued, "So, we came here today mainly to discuss with you, Teacher Ran, whether we can stay at your house for a few days. We won't disturb you for too long. After the educated youth dormitory is repaired, we will go back."
Without waiting for Ran Qiu to respond, she quickly talked about the rent.
"We don't live here for free, we pay rent."
Ran Qiu: "?"
Ran Qiu: “No.”
Rong Zhengqing was not very surprised by this result.
After all, who among the serious young men would be willing to live with three female educated youth in an ambiguous relationship? If gossips spread, would he still be able to get married in the future?
If one plan fails, try another.
Song Zhi pinched her thigh quietly, her eyes turned red, and she looked at Ran Qiu pitifully.
"I'm new here and I don't know the place. If I can't find any other place to stay, I'll just get to know you guys. If I can't find a place to stay, I'll go live in the cowshed."
Speaking of pitiful things, she sniffed sadly, and her whole face was full of anxiety.
"It's the dead of winter, and the cowshed is full of ice and cow dung. I'm afraid it will turn into ice in just two days."
Seeing that Ran Qiu remained unmoved, Song Zhi gritted his teeth and gave Nie Jinmei a look.
If they can't persuade Ran Qiu, they will really have to sleep in the cowshed!
Nie Jinmei immediately understood what he meant and quickly followed suit, acting pitifully.
"Yeah, my leg is injured, and I'm afraid I'll be frozen to the point of becoming disabled..."
At this moment, she thought about all the sad things in her life, and forced out a few tears, looking even more pitiful than Song Zhi.
Rong Zhengqing stood aside, watching Nie Jinmei...
She pursed her lips, speechless. Nie Jinmei was an honest girl before, but after playing with Song Zhi for just a few days, she was led astray by her!
When the three little guys heard this, they became anxious.
They had just been to the educated youth dormitory, which had collapsed into ruins, but they had no idea that Song Zhi was so miserable. He had no place to live and had to live in the cowshed. They knew what the cowshed was like best - it was smelly and cold.
The three little guys hurriedly and pitifully grabbed the corner of Ran Qiu's clothes and pleaded for Song Zhi.
"Brother Qiu, just agree to big sister. Don't we have three empty rooms in our house? They can be just right for them to live in. The cowshed is so smelly and cold. Big sister will get sick if she lives there!" San Ya was so anxious that her eyes were red. Big sister was so good to them, she didn't want her big sister to sleep in the cowshed.
Dabao and Erbao also quickly said: "Brother Qiu, Big Sister and the others are all good people, let's help them."
They didn't understand why Ran Qiu refused, they only knew that Song Zhi would be very pitiful if she had no place to live.
The three little guys thought very simply. Song Zhi had given them food before and helped them a lot. Now that Song Zhi was in trouble, they wanted to repay him.
"Brother Qiu, didn't you say that people should be grateful? Big sister gave us a lot of food before, and we should repay her." San Ya looked at Ran Qiu's tense face and her tone became more anxious. She gritted her teeth and blurted out everything in her heart.
Ran Qiu looked at the three of them and pursed his lips helplessly.
He raised his eyes and looked at Song Zhi.
Song Zhi immediately put on a pitiful look again, her clear and clean eyes were full of pleading, but she was afraid that she didn't even say the word "beg him".
Ran Qiu: "..."
He was speechless for a moment.
The three little guys were still begging desperately. Listening to their words, Ran Qiu frowned.
The three little ones were even more confused at this moment.
Brother Qiu is usually kind and enthusiastic. They don’t understand why he is unwilling to help the elder sister today?
Rong Zhengqing looked at Ran Qiu, an honest man, being embarrassed in this way, and suddenly felt that compared with Song Zhi and the others, he was considered a good person.
The other party was obviously unhappy, but they even resorted to torture.
Seeing that Ran Qiu was about to collapse, Rong Zhengqing's remaining sense of justice suddenly erupted.
Why do these young ladies from the city have to make things difficult for an honest man from the countryside?
Rong Zhengqing didn't believe that if Song Zhi didn't live in Ran Qiu's house, she would really go to the cowshed.
She had a lot of money and could always find a place to live.
Thinking of this, Rong Zhengqing made up his mind, stepped forward, and said in a smooth-talking manner, "Teacher Ran has already said that it's no use, so let's not embarrass him anymore. It's too cold out, so let's just go back quickly."
After she finished speaking, she grabbed Song Zhi and Nie Jinmei's hands and tried to pull them out of the yard.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, and Ran Qiu showing no sign of giving in, Song Zhi didn't force it anymore. He sighed dejectedly and said, "Okay, then let's go back to the bullpen."
She pulled her hand away from Rong Zhengqing, supported Nie Jinmei, and limped out.
Although the snow in the yard had been swept, there was still a thick layer of snow outside. Wherever you stepped on it, a pit would form. The cold snow poured into your shoes, soaking your socks.
The north wind was howling, blowing against the two people's clothes which were not very thick. They both subconsciously huddled up and walked forward trembling, making their backs look even more miserable and helpless.
Rong Zhengqing was stunned for a long time. She never expected that Song Zhi would be so easy to talk to.
Could it be that he suddenly felt guilty and changed his personality?
Seeing that the two of them had walked a long way away, she hurriedly followed them.
The three little ones looked at the pitiful backs of Song Zhi and the others, their eyes red with anxiety and they almost cried. They pulled Ran Qiu's hand and said anxiously: "Brother Qiu, please, please help the big sisters and the others!"
Ran Qiu really couldn't ignore those three pairs of pleading eyes.
But the three of them were all educated youth, living in the home of a bachelor like him, it was really...
"Brother Qiu!"
When the three little guys saw that Song Zhi and the others were about to disappear, they were so anxious that tears suddenly fell from their eyes. The hot tears fell on the back of Ran Qiu's hand, making his heart tremble.
The three of them have always been sensible, rarely cry or make a fuss, and never ask him for anything.
Now she is crying and making a fuss because of Song Zhi.
Ran Qiu's eyes dimmed slightly. He raised his eyes and looked at the three figures that were gradually moving away. The three of them were wearing thin clothes and had difficulty walking. It seemed as if the cold wind could blow them away. They looked really pitiful.
The man who had not yet turned evil pursed his lips silently, but finally relaxed and shouted at their backs.
"Wait a moment."
