Chapter 72: Good Samaritans

I began to regret it because I felt that I had a gut feeling that the person was probably a warm-hearted person. Then there was the fact that it was getting dark. If you still can't find a place to live and eat at night, the situation will be even more difficult.

I stood there, scratching my dirty hair with my hands from time to time, and walking up and down the road from time to time, like an ant on a hot pan.

It was getting dark, and the sun left a little of her light to the earth, and then hid below the plane. The clear blue sky was as clear as water, and a bright moon hung on one side of the sky, and around it, several particularly bright stars could be seen.

A cool breeze blew, bringing some coolness to this hot summer day. But my heart is not easy at all. On top of that, I forgot a few clothes I brought with me when I came home in Wei Junshen's marriage agency, and I haven't showered for a week, and I'm itching to death.

What's worse is that my unassuming stomach started to crumble again. "What can I do about this?" I wanted to cry, but there were no tears, and I felt uncomfortable when I didn't cry. What kind of mood people are in that situation of wanting to cry without tears, only I deeply understand.

While I was distressed, the short man who had just walked past me came back from outside the village. I was just about to muster up the courage to greet him, but he had already come to me: "Young man, what are you doing here?"

I listened to him ask me, and the grievances in my stomach rushed out in an instant, and I couldn't help crying "wow". When the man saw me like this, he hurried up to persuade him.

When I cried and explained to him what had happened, the man patted me on the shoulder and said in a hearty voice, "Little brother, don't be sad. It's also your blessing to meet me today. To be honest with you, I'm also a person who often runs around, so I understand the difficulties of being alone outside.

If you don't like it, let's go to my house for a meal first. With that, he took my hand and left.

With such a man saying that he would help me, the stone in my heart fell to the ground, and I stopped crying and followed him to his house. In order not to make me too upset, he found fault and talked to me on the way.

Seeing that he spoke politely, I also let go of my psychological baggage and said to him: "When I saw you passing by me just now, I was going to greet you, but I felt embarrassed. ”

As soon as the man heard me say this, he said, "What's so embarrassing about that?" I just passed by you, and I looked like you were in trouble, and I wanted to ask you, but I happened to go out and had something important, so I planned to ask you again when I came back, but I didn't expect that to be the case. ”

We walked and talked until we arrived at his door.

Although the reform and opening up had just been carried out at that time, his house had already built a magnificent small western-style building, which reminded me of what he had just said. I thought he might as well be a businessman. I thought as I followed him into his yard.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a woman in her thirties holding a two or three-year-old child in her arms, the child's big eyes, long eyelashes, and red face looked really cute. "This is my lover. The man pointed to the woman and said.

"Sister-in-law. "I walked up to the woman, gave a casual call, and stood in the courtyard. When the man saw that I was a little restrained, he took me by the hand and went into his house, and sat me on the sofa, and took the hand of his wife, who had come in with us, and the child said to her:

"You go stir-fry a few vegetables, cook some porridge, and distill a few steamed buns. When the woman heard what her husband said, she hurried into the kitchen and went to work. The child in the man's arms looked at me timidly with big eyes, and when I went to look at her, he hurriedly turned his head away.

I sat there bored, so I grabbed a newspaper and read it.

In a few moments, the woman had already prepared four dishes and one soup and put them on the table. Then he brought steamed buns and porridge. The man handed the child back to his wife, arranged for me to sit across from him, and asked me if I was drinking.

Oh my God, people don't care about your food because they sympathize with you, don't know who you are and what kind of wine you drink. So I said, I don't drink. When the man heard that I couldn't drink, he said to me, "If you don't know how to drink, you can eat first, and I'll have a few cups."

Then he stood up, took a bottle of liquor from the bar, and began to pour himself a drink. When I saw that the man was very open-minded, I was no longer restrained, and stretched out my hand to take the steamed bun.

However, when I was halfway through my hand, I suddenly saw that the woman was gone, so I withdrew my hand. "Big brother, sister-in-law hasn't eaten yet. "Oh. When the man saw me ask him, he took a glass of wine and drank it down, then pursed his lips and said, "She's in the kitchen." ”

"Let her eat with us. I said. When I say this, of course, I mean it. In fact, I didn't want her to sit with us at all. I'm not much of a family, and I'm going to be uncomfortable with her here.

The man probably knew this, but at the same time he was afraid that I would feel uncomfortable, so he said to me, "She keeps the food for herself when she stir-fries." She's here, and I'm afraid you'll be restrained. When he said that, it really spoke to my heart. So I stopped being polite and began to devour it.

When we finished eating, it was completely dark. The man looked out and said to me, "It's getting dark, and I can't let you live here." In this case, I'll give you ten dollars, and you can go to a hotel on the street and take a shower by the way, do you think it's okay?"

Oh my God, when he said this, I was burning high incense, so why didn't I want to? But I was too embarrassed to take his money. When the man saw this, he shoved the money into my trouser pocket and sent me out of the village. When we parted, he said to me, "You stay there for one night today, and then come back to me tomorrow." I listened and said, "Okay." ”

So, I went to the market, inquired about a hostel, and lived in it for five dollars. After staying in the hostel, I took a shower and washed my dirty clothes by the way. When I saw that there was a fan in the hostel, I put my laundry in front of the fan and blew it.

By the time I woke up the next morning, my clothes were almost dry. I took out the ten dollars the man gave me and ate a big bowl of noodles for the remaining five dollars, and the man was going to go to him. I'm going to open my mouth to him again and ask him for a little fare.

But, halfway through, I suddenly changed my mind again. Reader, why did I change my mind? I don't know if it's an advantage or a disadvantage, it's just that I'm sorry.

No matter what happens to me, I'm so embarrassed, even when I'm about to lose my life. This characteristic is a major obstacle to my way of life. When people are like this, when they are in trouble, they should find someone to help them, what is there to be embarrassed about? But I am so embarrassed.

Although I know that I have this shortcoming, I just can't get rid of it. I still have an idea, that is, the man took care of my sumptuous meal last night, and gave me ten yuan, as a kind person, it can be regarded as benevolent and righteous. As for the phrase "I'll find you tomorrow," I think it's just a polite remark.

I don't know if I have lived up to the kindness of others when I think like this, maybe they really want to help me, and I just live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Anyway, I decided not to bother the good Samaritan anymore, and I decided to be reborn in another way.

With this in mind, I stopped going to the village where the man was, but changed directions and walked to another village. The villages in the countryside were much the same, most of them were surrounded by trees and rows of houses. The village I came to was much like this, except that there was a pond at the entrance of the village, and some willow trees were planted on it.

From the outside, the village runs north-south, with a large road in the middle of the village. And the pond is at the end of the road. It does not mean that you walk directly into the pond from the main road, but that there is a cross road perpendicular to the main road that is the shore of the pond.

I came to the right-angled bend of the two roads and stood there watching.

After a while, I saw a man in his fifties untying an animal from a poplar tree and walked over to greet him. I told the man that I had been deceived, I was penniless, and I wanted to find something to do, whether I gave money or not, I just needed to take care of the food.

When the man heard this, he pulled the rope to tie the cattle with one hand, scratched his scalp with the other and said to me, "Young man, we are all farmers, we have no financial resources, and we can't afford to hire people. If you want to find a job, you have to go to xxx and yyy. ”

As soon as I heard this, I hurriedly asked, "What are the two of them doing?" "They collect peanut shells, crush them with a grinder, and sell them to the feed factory. As he spoke, the man pulled the animal and prepared to leave. I followed him. We chatted as we walked.

When we reached the middle of the road, the man stopped, pointed forward with his hand, and said to me, "If you want to find the one to fetch feed, you can count the third in the fourth row from here." Then the man took the animal and went in the other direction.

I looked at his back and said, "Uncle, thank you." When I had finished speaking, I followed the direction he pointed to find the house.
