The next day, just after lunch, Du Sheng ran and jumped all the way to Granny Meng's residence. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is a small bungalow, located in the corner of the orphanage, although it is a single house, but it is only a dozen square meters, the right side of the small piece of land against the wall is surrounded by a low hedge, which is full of red, red, green and green flowers and plants.

"Granny Meng, these flowers are so beautiful, did you plant them?" Du Sheng asked as he picked up the kettle next to him and watered the flowers.

Granny Meng was lying on the rocking chair next to the garden, watching Du Sheng busy before and after, and couldn't help laughing again.

"Granny Meng, let me ask you." Du Sheng pouted dissatisfiedly.

"Hehe, of course my mother-in-law planted it." Granny Meng squinted, letting the rocking chair sway gently with the gentle breeze.

"Now, so much, are you too busy?" Du Sheng asked again.

"My mother-in-law is too busy to be busy, so I want you to help."

"Oh, Granny Meng, there are so many weeds here, I'll help you." Du Sheng said, simply lying on the ground, stretching out his hand to pull it out.

"Don't pull it out, don't pull it out." Granny Meng hurriedly waved her hand to dissuade her.

"Why?" Du Sheng didn't understand: "The book clearly says that if you get rid of weeds, these flowers planted by your mother-in-law can bloom better." ”

"Silly boy. Whether it is a flower or a grass, they all have souls and lives. Granny Meng paused, saw Du Sheng's blank face, and explained with a smile: "If you like the flowers planted by your mother-in-law, take care of them, and if you don't like those weeds, pull them out, so if one day, you become those weeds, what will you think?" ”

"Hmm-" Du Sheng thought for a moment and replied honestly, "I will feel that I am a big villain!" ”

Granny Meng nodded: "So, whether it's flowers or weeds, we all have to take good care of it and let them live well, you say, right?" ”

"Mm-hmm, mother-in-law is right!" Du Sheng raised his hands in agreement: "I don't want to be like a big ass, I only be good to the children I like, and if I don't like it, I will always bully them and die." After speaking, Du Sheng hurriedly planted the two small grasses that he had just pulled out and carefully planted them back.

"Du Sheng is so good." Granny Meng nodded appreciatively.

"Eh, mother-in-law, look at you!" Du Sheng suddenly pointed to an inconspicuous corner of the flowers as if he had discovered a new continent and exclaimed, "Is this also my mother-in-law's flower?" It's so beautiful! ”

Mother-in-law Meng looked in the direction Du Sheng pointed, and this look was stunned.

This is a small flower, similar to irises, but it is snow-white, even the rhizomes and leaves are pure white, except for the stamens that are a little pink, although peculiar, but extremely petite, so quietly hidden in the flowers, if you don't look closely, it is really difficult to find.

"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law?" Du Sheng saw that Granny Meng didn't answer for a long time, and he was curious and anxious.

After a long while, Granny Meng came back to her senses and smiled at Du Sheng: "Mother-in-law has planted a lot of flowers, I can't remember clearly." ”

"Huh? All right. Du Sheng sighed in disappointment. I looked closely at this strange and fragile little life.

"Are you so young because you're afraid of being discovered?" Du Sheng said to himself, stretching out his little hand to caress the petals.

"Be careful!" Granny Meng suddenly became nervous.

Du Sheng was so frightened that he retracted his hand and looked at Granny Meng with big eyes.

"Well, this flower is too small, my mother-in-law is afraid that you will break it." Granny Meng smiled and explained.

"Oh, that's right. I know, mother-in-law, I will take care of it in the future. Du Sheng patted his chest and promised, and after speaking, he looked at the little flower again: "Be careful・・・・・・ haha, I will tell you to be careful of the flower in the future!" ”

"Hehe, kid, come here." Granny Meng said, taking out two pieces of candy from her pocket: "Look, Mother-in-law gave it to you." ”

"Oh yes! Mother-in-law is the best! Du Sheng saw that the candy was still a flower, rushed over in three or two steps, grabbed the candy like a little bandit and ate it.

"Okay, eat slowly, let's play, my mother-in-law wants to sleep for a while." Granny Meng waved her hand.

"Well, mother-in-law, you sleep, I'll come to see you tomorrow." After Du Sheng finished speaking, he jumped away chewing candy.

It wasn't until Du Sheng disappeared around the corner that Granny Meng turned her eyes, looked at the strange little white flower, and pondered again.

"Prison Kite - How can there be a Prison Kite in the world?"

Thinking about it, Granny Meng frowned.

Prison Kite - Beware of flowers.

Day after day, every day at noon, Du Sheng would come to Granny Meng's yard to water all the flowers and plants, especially for the white "careful flower" special care, sometimes the mother-in-law read in the house, sometimes walked around the house with her hands behind her back, sometimes simply stood next to her, squinting and watching Du Sheng busy before and after, but more often still lying on the eternal rocking chair, talking and laughing, until she unconsciously took a nap.

Every time he finished watering the flowers, Du Sheng would get two pieces of sugar, no more, no less. Du Sheng didn't know where Granny Meng got so much sugar, once Du Sheng took advantage of Granny Meng's nap and sneaked into the house to search for it, but he didn't find a single candy.

"Mother-in-law, where did you hide all the sugar?" Du Sheng lay on Granny Meng's lap and asked curiously.

"Little glutton, my mother-in-law won't tell you. lest thou steal it. Granny Meng symbolically knocked Du Sheng's head.

"Hmph, if you don't say it, you won't say it." Du Sheng pouted.

In this way, from winter to summer, and from summer to winter, the flowers in the yard bloomed and thanked, thanked and opened, only this "careful flower", but it is always blooming all year round, undefeated all year round, although it is still petite, but the color of the flower is more and more white.

Before you know it, six years have passed.

"Be careful, you say, our mother-in-law sleeps here every day and doesn't move around, it's not good for your health, right?" Du Sheng sat cross-legged by the small courtyard, chatting with "Careful" while watering flowers.

The "careful" flowers reflected in the sun, lined with unfallen water droplets, look particularly delicate.

Twelve or thirteen-year-old Du Sheng, although he is still childish, he has also begun to look like a teenager, but he looks thinner than children of the same age.

"Eh, my mother-in-law is too old to walk." Granny Meng lay in the rocking chair, smiling and shaking her head.

"That's not good, I read the book that the older you get, the more you move, otherwise you really can't move." Du Sheng said, patting the dust on his buttocks, and picked up Granny Meng: "Come, I'll help you walk two steps." ”

"Okay, mother-in-law listens to you." Granny Meng couldn't resist it, but she let Du Sheng carry her and scattered around the house.

"Child," Granny Meng said slowly as she walked, "In the past few years, there have been people who want to adopt you, why don't you want to go?" ”

"I'm not going," Du Sheng kicked a small pebble along the way: "I'm leaving, who will water your old flowers." ”

"Eh," Granny Meng sighed, "You are still young, how can you always accompany me, an old woman?" ”

"Why not? My mother-in-law is my dearest person in this world, and of course I have to accompany my mother-in-law. Du Sheng thought about it, suddenly stopped, looked at Granny Meng and said, "Mother-in-law, do you want to drive me away?" When I'm older, I'll be working in an orphanage, and I won't eat rice. ”

"Silly boy, what are you thinking?" Granny Meng knocked on Du Sheng's head, just like when she was a child, it didn't hurt, but unconsciously, Du Sheng was already as tall as Granny Meng, and it was not as easy as it used to be to knock Du Sheng's head.

"Mother-in-law is old, if one day, mother-in-law is gone, you have to live well, you know?" The mother-in-law still said slowly.

"Mother-in-law is good, how can you say that if you don't see it, you won't see it, besides, I walk with you every day, and you are in good health!" Du Sheng said with an oath.

Granny Meng just smiled and said nothing more, but there was a faint layer of imperceptible sadness between her eyebrows.

After going around twice, Granny Meng stopped and habitually reached into her pocket again.

Two pieces of candy, this habit is the same as watering flowers, and it has been maintained for six years unconsciously, although candy is no longer a rare thing, but Du Sheng is happy to accept it every time.

However, this time was different from the past, when the things were taken out of his pocket, even Du Sheng was dumbfounded.

"Is this ・・・・・・ chocolate?" Du Sheng stared at the rectangular piece wrapped in tin foil in Granny Meng's hand, and was stunned for a long time before stammering.

Although seen in magazines and advertisements, this extravagant snack is still a fantasy for the children in the orphanage.

"Hehe, try it." Granny Meng smiled and handed the chocolate to Du Sheng.

Du Sheng carefully unpacked the package and gently bit down a small piece.

"Hmm! Super delicious! Du Sheng was so excited that he was almost speechless.

"Eat more if it's delicious. Mother-in-law still has. Granny Meng said, took out several pieces from her pocket and stuffed them all into Du Sheng's hands.

"Long live my mother-in-law!"

As usual, the laughter drifted away in this slightly cold afternoon.

In the blink of an eye, it is night.

Du Sheng slept hazy, and suddenly the urge to urinate came. I had to put on my shirt and pants and hurried to the toilet.

On the way back, Du Sheng smashed the taste of chocolate as he walked, thinking about how many more pieces he would fool around tomorrow.

Inadvertently, Du Sheng seemed to see a strange glimmer of light flashing in Granny Meng's hut. Faint, blue, not too eye-catching, but it really broke into Du Sheng's eyes.

"Hey, what is Granny Meng doing? That light just now looked weird, and it didn't look like a light. Du Sheng picked his head: "Could it be that you are secretly making chocolate?" ”

As soon as this idea popped up, all kinds of magical pictures came into mind: "Well-it must be, I said, how can my mother-in-law have such an expensive snack, she must have made it quietly." ”

Curiosity completely ruled Du Sheng, and he didn't care about this slightly cold body, Du Sheng tiptoed and moved towards the hut step by step.

The closer he got closer, Du Sheng faintly heard the sound of a conversation, his voice was very low, and he couldn't hear the content clearly, but he could feel that the atmosphere of the conversation was a little heavy.

"Who is my mother-in-law talking to?" Du Sheng thought and quietly leaned to the window.

The moonlight reflected the clumsy back of Granny Meng, but the conversation was between two strange people, one tall and thin, dressed in white, and the other black and short, dressed in black.

Granny Meng held her hands behind her back as usual and bent her waist, but she formed a subtle confrontation with these two weirdos.

"Does it have to be in such a hurry?" Granny Meng sighed.

"What the boss means, let's ask you to go back as soon as possible." The man in white bowed his hand like an ancient man and said respectfully.

"Okay, please, and let you two brothers come forward, my old woman can't afford it." Granny Meng waved her hand.

"You also know the character of the Maharaja, so it's better not to embarrass the two of me." The man in black was respectful, but there was a bit of ferocity in his words.

"My old woman is old, where is your opponent, no matter what I say, you have to tie me back even if you tie me up, right?"

"You have said this seriously," the man in white leaned over slightly: "It's just business, please don't be surprised by Meng Lao." ”

"Forget it," Granny Meng thought for a while: "Go back, go back, but you have to promise me first, you can't embarrass this child." ”

"Regarding this, Meng Lao doesn't have to worry about it." Humane in white.

"Humph!" Granny Meng snorted coldly, and in an instant, the faint blue light erupted like an oily flame, enveloping Granny Meng.

"Since I have protected this child for ten years, I am not afraid to protect him for another ten years! If you don't make it clear, my old bone might as well move it again today! ”

"Bang!" The door slammed open.

"You are not allowed to hurt Granny Meng!" Du Sheng choked back tears, and an arrow step was in front of Granny Meng.

A ghostly light flashed from behind, and Du Sheng only felt a shock in his chest, and then he collapsed to the ground in a groggy state.

"Good boy, get some sleep, and you'll be fine tomorrow." Granny Meng's voice.

"Mother-in-law・・・・・・ mother-in-law・・・・・・" Du Sheng struggled, and finally slowly closed his eyes.
