Chapter 10: Can You Not Be So Cute?
Am I stinky and shameless?
Hehe...... What about your face?
Something outside of the body, right?
Su Xiaobei pondered for a moment: "He...... tui!”
Who knew that his action tilted the nose of the "gas canister" on the second floor next door, shook the hand that was drying clothes, and the freshly washed clothes fell directly from the terrace.
Syllable!
Loud and sound.
Su Xiaobei saw it clearly, the golden red belly pocket, impartial, just fell on a steaming dog poop.
"Su Xiaobei, I'm not done with you!!"
"Gas canisters" shouted with red eyes and almost madness.
A few black lines flowed down Su Xiaobei's head, and he gestured a middle finger towards the "gas canister".
Brain-dead, right?
You didn't hold your clothes steady and fell on the dog's poop, do you blame me?
Besides, that dog poop seems to be pulled by your light bulb, right?
The "gas canister" was annoyed, picked up a flip-flop from the terrace, and smashed it down at Su Xiaobei.
Su Xiaobei flashed lightly, feeling that this flip-flop was a little familiar, and touched his nose: "Hey, aren't these my shoes?"
"You ......"
The "gas canister" trembled and almost exploded on the spot.
Su Xiaobei smiled, ignored her, picked up his flip-flops, and whistled back to his small shop casually.
Jingle ......
The sunny day doll hanging in front of the small shop moves with the wind, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
As soon as Su Xiaobei walked into the shop, a hunchbacked old man with a crutch followed him into the shop.
Don't look at the hunchbacked old man's silver hair and silver beard, but his face is ruddy, especially his eyes, which are not cloudy at all, and look bright.
"Grandpa, come and see the plants, slide carefully!" Su Xiaobei reminded with a smile.
In his eyes, this was just a lonely old man who happened to be passing by, but the moment the other party raised his wrist and looked at his watch, Su Xiaobei immediately changed his opinion of him.
Groove ......
Lange & Söhne?
It is understated, subtle, rigorous, sophisticated, advocating tradition, but leading fashion.
In the world of watches, it can be regarded as a maverick brand.
Although Su Xiaobei doesn't know much about watches, he still knows a little about this watch.
When young people wear this watch, it's called: Rich!
When the old man wears this watch, that is: old and rich!
It's just that he never expected that the hunchbacked old man in front of him, who was not good-looking, would be a super tyrant.
Knowing the identity of the other party, Su Xiaobei did not immediately surround the store like a fly and sell the plants in the store, but let the old man let him freely enjoy the grass, trees, flowers and Zen in the store.
The hunchbacked old man, on crutches, wandered around the house for a while, then suddenly paused and asked, "Young man, are you the owner of this shop?"
"Yes, Grandpa. Su Xiaobei smiled, it was an honor to be able to talk to a local tyrant who casually wore more than a million watches.
"Oh......" the hunchbacked old man thought for a moment, and then walked unhurriedly towards the door with his crutches.
He walked very slowly.
When you are older, your legs and feet are not good, and you will definitely walk very slowly.
But he is different, although he walks slowly, but his pace is steady.
Walking to the door, he paused again: "Young man, it's convenient to ask, who was the previous owner of this shop?"
"Oh, that's my grandfather. Su Xiaobei replied truthfully. In its opinion
"Your grandfather?" the hunchbacked old man turned around in surprise and looked Su Xiaobei up and down, "Isn't my brother unmarried all his life?
Su Xiaobei smiled: "I am an orphan, and my grandfather adopted me." ”
The hunchbacked old man suddenly said: "I see, where does my brother live now?"
Seeing that Su Xiaobei looked at him with a little more vigilance, the hunchbacked old man hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, it's really a bit abrupt to ask for the home address when I come up, but it's not a secret, I and your grandfather Su Rui are old friends, but there is some misunderstanding between us, so this trip back to China, I rushed back here as soon as possible, just to visit my brother, to catch up with the old days, or to apologize, anyway, I have too much to say to him." ”
Grandpa was poor all his life.
I've never heard him talk about it, and he has such a rich friend?
Su Xiaobei sighed softly: "I don't think it's necessary......"
The hunchbacked old man looked sincere, and wanted to continue to explain: "Child, it's not what you think, I ......"
"Grandpa, he's gone!"
"What...... What ?!!" When he heard these four words like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, the thin and thin body of the hunchbacked old man trembled suddenly, and the smile on his face instantly froze, with a thick shock, he couldn't believe his ears, and even his bright eyes became cloudy at that moment, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect him to ...... Well, when?"
"The year before last, I suffered a cardiac arrest and was not rescued!"
"Alas......" The hunchbacked old man secretly wiped a handful of tears, turned around and left the shop.
Looking at the slender and trembling back of the hunchbacked old man, Su Xiaobei didn't ask anything.
I suddenly remembered what my grandfather often said before his death: "Raising a pot of flowers, feeding a fish, making a pot of tea, loving someone, and leisurely life, isn't this life? Why care about the eyes of the world? Why do you have to fight for a fish to die in the net? In the past, let it pass......
Grandpa said these words with a kind smile on his face.
But Su Xiaobei knew that there was too much bitterness hidden behind that smile.
Grandpa, how are you doing over there?
I miss you......
……
"Brother?" Li Qingxi walked down with Dumb in his arms, and saw Su Xiaobei motionless at the door, and called twice without responding, "Brother, are you okay?"
It wasn't until Li Qingxi walked in front of him that Su Xiaobei came back to his senses: "Oh, it's okay." ”
Li Qingxi stroked Dumb's head, tilted his head and asked, "Are you busy in the store today?"
Dumb was a little comfortable to touch, and he closed his eyes and enjoyed it, and let out bursts of snoring from his throat.
"I'm not too busy, what's wrong?" Su Xiaobei asked, not knowing what kind of crooked idea this kid was playing.
"Hehe, if you're not busy, can you take me to the game hall?" Li Qingxi bent his eyes and showed a naughty smile on his face.
"No, you can't go to a place like that smoky miasma. Su Xiaobei immediately refused.
"Oops...... Brother, I'm fourteen years old......" Li Qingxi grabbed Su Xiaobei's arm and began to stalk, "I haven't been to the game hall for almost half a year, so you can take me to play once!"
"Gotta get it!" Su Xiaobei said that he admitted defeat, a little unbearable Li Qingxi spoiled himself.
A boy, can you not be so cute?
"Hehe, I know that Brother Bei is the best. Li Qingxi's green cheeks revealed a hint of cunning that "the treacherous plan succeeded".
Su Xiaobei sighed, took Dumb from Li Qingxi's hand, and put it down: "Dumb, you stay and watch the house, and I will go out with Brother Qingxi." ”
"Meow woo ......" Dumb expressed disbenement.
Cats are so bearable, are you embarrassed to go out by yourself?
Su Xiaobei closed the door of the store, hung up the U-shaped lock and the wooden sign of "If you have something to go out, come back immediately", walked out of the small shop side by side with Li Qingxi, walked through the ginkgo forest in the small square, and stopped a taxi on the side of the road.
"Brother, where is your third-hand bread?" asked Li Qingxi with a tilt of his head.
"The engine leaked oil and the tires punctured, and I haven't had time to fix it. Su Xiaobei shrugged helplessly, his four-handed bread didn't mention it, even if it was repaired, he had to step on the accelerator to climb up the small slope.
"Three days and two heads of problems, simply replaced, I think Jaguar XJ is good, if you don't have enough money, I can sponsor you 20. Li Qingxi smiled hippie.
"Well, you'd better keep it for the lollipops. Su Xiaobei's eyelids drooped, thinking that the little money in his bank card, let alone buying a car, was not enough to repair the car.
