Chapter 99: The Story of the Golden Leaf
"That's a shame. Jin Ye sighed, but he didn't look too uncomfortable, as if he had expected this to be the result.
"But after all, I have been in the blood wolf for so many years, and it was the blood wolf who cultivated me, and this time it was the blood wolf who saved my life, so although my people are not in the blood wolf, my heart will always be the blood wolf, as long as the blood wolf is in need, I can do anything for the blood wolf at any time. Huang Fei believed that Jin Ye would definitely not bring him in order to keep him, so he put his words in place first, so as not to be passive when he got it, since he had decided to repay the blood wolf, he had to do it decently, and he had to be a good person.
"I'm glad you can say that, at least you're a sentient and righteous person. Jin Ye suddenly reached out and grabbed Huang Fei's hand and patted it gently on the back of his hand.
Huang Fei didn't dodge, he felt that this feeling was amazing, as if he was being coaxed to sleep by an elder.
"Let's get down to business, I originally asked you to do one thing this time, but I decided on one more thing just now, which means that there are two things that you need to do now. Jin Ye withdrew his hand, sat up straight and said.
"Just tell me, I'll do it. Huang Fei knew that Jin Ye had already proposed it and would not give himself a chance to refuse, so he happily agreed.
"The first thing is that there is a task that you need to complete, you have already left the blood wolf, and I shouldn't bother you anymore, but I don't think anyone can complete this matter except you. So even if you don't have a blood wolf this time, I'll find a way to get you back. Regarding the content of the task, it is still the old rule, and you will be notified before the execution. Jin Ye finally began to talk about the real purpose of looking for Huang Feilai. And the meaning is also very clear, it must be done.
"The second thing is my personal matter, and it is also an idea that I have just risen, but the decision on this matter is up to you, and it is up to you to decide whether you agree or not. Jin Ye's eyes were full of anticipation when he said this.
"Say what? Huang Fei felt strange, what was going on?
"You're an orphan, aren't you?" asked Jin Ye.
Huang Fei nodded, the fact that he was an orphan was not a secret in the blood wolf.
"Actually, like you, I haven't seen my parents since I was a child, and I'm an orphan. Jin Ye said with some sadness.
Huang Fei's eyes widened suddenly, he didn't expect Jin Ye to be an orphan, and at this moment, she actually felt a little sympathetic.
"I think, if you don't dislike it, let me be your grandmother, and we will be relatives in the future. Jin Ye's request made Huang Fei stunned, but he quickly understood that no matter how strong Jin Ye was, she was old after all, and she always wanted to have a home.
"Grandma. Huang Fei stood up and shouted.
"Hey. Jin Yemei agreed with a smile.
"Grandma. Huang Fei shouted again.
"Hey. Jin Ye was even happier now.
Huang Fei was also quite happy, although he didn't know why Jin Ye wanted to recognize himself as her grandson, but he really experienced the feeling of having an elder.
"From now on, you will be the grandson of my Golden Leaf, and everything I have will be yours. "Jin Ye is very generous, this is clearly to make Huang Fei her heir.
Although Huang Fei is also a very thick-skinned person, Jin Ye's boldness still makes him a little unacceptable: "This... , Grandma, that's not good. ”
"What's so bad? I have no children, no daughters, no worries, now there is only a grandson like you, who will I give my things to you?" Jin Ye glared at him: "Of course, it's not for you, you still have to give me a pension." ”
"Look at what you said, since I recognize you as a grandmother, then these are my duties, you can rest assured, I will definitely be filial to you, and I only have a relative like you. Although Huang Fei has no parents, he also knows what filial piety is, and when he opened his mouth to call Jin Ye his grandmother, he understood that he had another responsibility on his shoulders.
Listening to Huang Fei's words, Jin Ye couldn't stop nodding, and it could be seen that she was very satisfied.
"Are you interested in hearing grandma's story?" said Jin Ye suddenly.
Huang Fei nodded hurriedly, he was really interested in this female boss of the blood wolf, she was so mysterious, there must be a lot of untold stories.
"Then I'll tell you about it, hehehe, I've never told anyone else about these things, so I'll tell my eldest grandson about it today. Jin Ye beckoned and motioned for Huang Fei to sit closer.
Huang Fei carried a chair and sat beside Jin Ye, looking like he was really like a grandfather and grandson sitting together telling a story.
"I was born in a war era, full of artillery fire and corpses. Jin Ye began to tell Huang Fei his own story, just like a memoir, from the very beginning.
During the war years, Huang Fei was immediately attracted, and now it is an era of peace, and there is no war anymore. Although he was also a mercenary, he had participated in countless missions, and he had seen countless guns and dead people, but that could only be called a battle, and war was completely different. War is like a forest, and battle is at best a tree, and there is no comparison.
Kaneha was born during the war years, which coincided with the world war, when the whole world was in chaos, every country was caught in the war, and she had not seen her parents since she could remember, and she may have died in the war a long time ago. I don't know what my surname is, or what place I am from, but I live with a group of beggars every day, and they are called beggars. Since it is a help, there must be a helper, and the help is the person who leads everyone to live together.
At that time, banknotes were not valuable, and sometimes a pocket of banknotes could not even buy a steamed bun. In troubled times, the most valuable thing is gold, and people with family backgrounds will do everything they can to collect gold. In order to be easy to carry and use, gold is generally fashioned into gold bricks, gold bars or gold leaves. Because Jin Ye is a girl and has no name or surname, the helper named her Jin Ye, hoping that she can be a rich man in the future. This name has also accompanied Jin Ye for a lifetime, and looking at today's situation, the original wish of the helper has also come true.
The division of labor in the beggar gang is very clear, everyone has their own position and responsibilities, there are special people who are responsible for begging, some are responsible for stealing, and there are people who protect the safety of the gang, and they do their own thing. Jin Ye was still the age of babbling at the time, and he was the youngest in the gang, so he couldn't do anything. It's precisely because of her young age that she gets special attention from everyone in the gang from top to bottom, and she will leave a bite for anything to eat and drink.
In this way, although the gold leaf is hard, it can be regarded as a smooth growth.
After slowly becoming sensible, like all children without parents, Jin Ye also wanted to know who his parents were, but after asking everyone in the gang, the answer was the same: I don't know. After further questioning, I realized that I was picked up on the side of the road, and my cry at that time alarmed an old beggar who was begging for food, and the old beggar followed the cry to find it, and finally found the golden leaf lying in a bamboo basket crying sadly in a bush. The old beggar relented, and brought her back.
This kind of thing was a common occurrence at that time, and the tragedy of the separation of wives and the destruction of families continued to be staged every day. The gold leaf is still a good fate, it was picked up, and it survived if it was able to have something to eat, and those who were starved to death and taken away by wild beasts were much more miserable.
Jin Ye is much more sensible than children of the same age, she did not cry and shout to find her own parents, but buried this matter deep in her heart, she knew that in this kind of world, wanting to find her parents back is simply a pipe dream, what should be done now, and the only thing to do, is to live.
In Jin Ye's childhood memories, the most impressive thing left on her was hunger. In those days, the common people starved to death, let alone these beggars? Sometimes they couldn't even eat a mouthful of food for several days, and people in the gang starved to death every day, Jin Ye watched those companions who were still talking and laughing together last night and couldn't wake up after a night, she was used to seeing death and even numb at a young age.
Now that she has grown up, she can no longer wait for others to take care of her every day for nothing as before, and she doesn't have to wait for the helper's instructions, Jin Ye takes the initiative to go out to beg with the begging team every day, hesitating that she is young and has a sweet mouth, so she will always ask for a little more food than others, and gradually she will become the pillar of the gang.
It's not enough to just beg for food, although Jin Ye grew up in the beggar gang and has never studied or read, but her mind is very broad, and she knows how to think and design her own life at a young age.
She knows that if she begs for food like this, then she can only be a beggar for the rest of her life, and she will always be looked down upon by others and called Hanako. Therefore, she has to try to change her fate, and the beggar gang provides her with a good place to learn.
In the eyes of the world, the beggars are the most humble and lowly group, but such a group is unimaginably complex.
There are two main types of beggars in the beggar gang, one is called Hanako, this kind of beggar belongs to the kind of profession that asks for food, they don't know anything except food, so those who are starved to death are usually this kind of people. Also in today's words is a technical talent, although it is the identity of a beggar, but most of them are stunts, this kind of person will not starve wherever he goes, joining the beggar gang also has its own difficulties, most of this kind of people are to use the identity of a beggar to hide their true identity, so as to be able to protect themselves.
In fact, there is another kind of person, but it is rare, that kind of people who play life, they are debauched and do not like to be restrained, so they become beggars and live this free and easy life.
So while begging, Jin Ye deliberately approached these people, the purpose was very simple, she wanted to learn from these people.
