Chapter Seventy-One: The Meaning of Life

Wang Xiu rushed to the old man's residence as fast as he could, and when he saw the children, some were happily playing, some were reading in the room, and only Li Caixuan was accompanied in the house, and he came back with a sigh of relief.

"Is anyone following?" Wang Xiu couldn't be completely relieved and asked more.

He Wei shook his head and said, "Don't worry, no one is paying attention." ”

"That's good, that's good." Wang Xiu put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "I'm worried that it's redundant, during this time, Zhu Rong can't afford to make trouble." ”

"How?" What is a blink, I don't know what's going on.

Wang Xiu told Zhu Rong's sniffing as it was, and the old man and He Wei laughed heartily, both mourning for the poor child.

He Wei looked at Wang Xiu meaningfully and said, "With Lord Zhizhou here, why did you miss an opportunity?" ”

"Chenzhou only!" Wang Xiu was reluctant to go deep and summarized it in one word, but the expected heroism was fully displayed.

The old man's eyes lit up and he sighed: "The official has good ambitions!" ”

Li Caixuan's big eyes flashed and looked at Wang Xiu curiously.

Wang Xiuwan smiled and said: "Lao Su has a good reputation, and when I saw Lao Su with hard work, I realized that I was shallow in the past. ”

"People who have achieved nothing, let the officials laugh, cough cough." The old man coughed again, and Li Caixuan hurriedly beat the old man's back.

"Okay, it's not early, I'll rest early, I'll come back tomorrow." Wang Xiu smacked her lips, wanted to speak and stopped, and finally got up to say goodbye.

"It's okay, the officials will go back to rest earlier, and the old man wants to talk more with the children." The old man said lightly.

When Wang Xiu heard this, he looked at the old man in surprise, the quiet smile in the face of death, and the face full of ravines were full of calmness towards death.

Maybe it's because I saw through the life and death of the world! A burst of sadness rose in his heart, mixed with a little relief, some people have been prosperous and rich all their lives, but they died and couldn't see through the world, and they were born for a hundred years, he sighed lightly and said with a long sigh: "Farewell." ”

That night, in the study room of the Zhu family's compound, Zhu Rong stood honestly, his face was very gray, and he peeked at his father from time to time.

Zhu Lianqi walked back and forth, his face was red for a while, pale for a while, and when he was tired, he stopped in front of Zhu Rong and shouted: "Rebel, look at the good things you have done, you dare to be presumptuous in front of Lord Zhizhou, and you don't want to live anymore." ”

Zhu Rong cried with a sad face, like a dead mother, and said weakly: "Dad, I don't know!" ”

"Don't know?" Zhu Lianqi saw that his son was very unenlightened, even more stupid than the fat pig, so he couldn't help but come up angrily, and said sharply: "Even if Lord Zhizhou is not there, you are presumptuous in the public, in case something happens, where will I put my face?" And again, Who is it, and who can make you sinned? Needless to say, even the Sun family is not something you can offend. ”

"Wang Xiu just relied on something." Zhu Rong still didn't understand, and defended himself very unconvinced.

Zhu Lianqi was furious, his whole body trembled, and he pointed at Zhu Rong slowly, and said: "You, you don't understand who people are, you dare to humiliate wantonly, and you have to find a splash of skin and hurt people, I sue you, you want to beat Wang Xiu today, don't talk about yourself, even you Lao Tzu and I will be finished." ”

Zhu Rong shivered all over, and his eyes were glazed.

"Scared? Everything is prosperous, the proprietor is silent, why has he stayed in Shangshui for more than a month? Let you read more books, but you spend all day drinking, you go to see the correct theory of mind, Wang Xiu and Shen Mo, what are the works of the three people, Wang Xiu is the writer, understand? "Zhu Rongqi hates that iron can't become steel, if Zhu Rong wasn't his only son, he would be eager to slaughter this guy now.

Zhu Rong was shocked, and immediately petrified, Nuo Nuo said: "What. How so. He, he has that great ability? ”

"Hmph, in normal times, I have to stammer a thing or two with Wang Xiuba, you rebel actually made me lose a great opportunity, and I lost face in front of Zhizhou." Zhu Lianqi is angry when he thinks about it, but he has been in the economy for more than 20 years, and what he thinks in his heart is definitely not what he says, his son offended Wang Xiu, maybe it was a chance for him to see what to do.

Zhu Rong trembled, I don't know what to do, he is gentle and elegant in normal times, and he is quite popular among the young scholars of Wanqiu, and when he encounters a crisis, he reveals his true form, pretending to meet someone who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, and kicks it on the stainless steel plate, no way!

"Say, why did you have a conflict with Wang Xiu, I asked you to be polite on weekdays, you did a good job, why did you rob someone else's private room today?" Zhu Lianqi is old and spicy, and directly points to the trigger point of the problem.

Zhu Rong thought for a long time, shook his head, and looked confused.

"Whoever you are going with, what do you say, give me a careful consideration." Zhu Xianqi's face was ugly, and he couldn't wait to slap his son twice, but he didn't know that he was instigated by everyone, and he was stupid to count the money when he was sold.

"Two of our county's. And Zhang Qiyuan from Shangshui County, yes, Zhang Qiyuan." Zhu Rong's eyes lit up.

Early the next morning, Wang Xiu had just gotten up to wash, and He Wei led Zong Liang to come in a panic, and the first thing he said was: "Big Daddy went to bed in the morning." ”

Wang Xiu didn't have too much stunned, let alone panic, just endless sadness and desolation, and that moment of emptiness.

When he arrived at the house, he stood in front of the old man with a calm face who had returned home, without tears, but just stood and stared, and his ears were still full of the conversation he had with the old man yesterday.

"How can the old man not know that they steal property in private for the treatment of the little old man, but they have no heart. The old man knew that his days were numbered, but overnight, he saw that the officials were kind and kind-hearted, and he was cheeky to make a request to the officials. ”

"Seeing the outside, meeting is fate, as long as you are within your ability, you will live up to your trust."

"Thank you to the officials, the old man can't bear to see the bad environment of the nursing home, since a few years ago he took in ten orphans, these children have their own merits, I believe the officials can see it. The old man's time is short, and he hopes that the officials will pity these orphans after the old man, take them in, but beg them to eat. ”

"Lao Su rest assured, Wang Xiu will live up to his expectations, please return, please also ask Lao Su to promise the next thing."

"Please also have a good meal."

"Huh. The old man is better than obeying his fate. ”

Yesterday was vivid, Wang Xiu really wanted to cry, but he still held back, he couldn't show even a trace of cowardice in front of the children, at least now he thinks that a man crying in front of others is a sign of cowardice.

The only thing that comforted him was that the old man calmly walked the last journey of his life, and although the last night was not so perfect, the old man was unfazed.

The only thing that made him regret was that he was so stupid that he didn't ask the old man's surname all the time, it shouldn't be, it's really too careless!

The only thing that made him happy was that he had a clearer direction, which should be said to be an important goal to work towards in the general direction, and ten children.

"Uncle, Daddy is gone." Li Caixuan hugged his arm, crying pear blossoms with rain, which was very pitiful.

"Lao Su, Lao Su has a high surname, who of you knows?" Wang Xiu was a little embarrassed in her sadness.

Zong Liang glanced at Wang Xiu, his face was full of surprise, but he was very ashamed, turned to look at the younger brothers, and said, "Who of you knows? ”

Wang Xiu was so surprised that she almost didn't get angry, after living for so many years, this group of children didn't know the name of the old man. It's no wonder that they are all twelve or thirteen-year-old orphans, less than ten years old when they were taken in, and they are used to calling their big daddy, where have they ever thought about the name of the old man, do you think that the old man with high character has not even left his name? Heaven is unfair!

"Big daddy often writes high characters, I don't know if it will be a surname." Qin Min said weakly.

Wang Xiu frowned for a while, then slowly shook his head and said softly: "It's not proper, it's inappropriate!" ”

He Wei sighed deeply and said, "Why care about the surname, wouldn't it be better to have an anonymous name." ”

Wang Xiu looked at what is in surprise, when there is silence, what is like the stars that are covered by the bright moon, and now they are only shining little by little, even if there are many unsatisfactory people, people, how many can be called perfect people?

"Go to the outside of the city to find a good place to bury, and let the old house be buried in peace." Wang Xiu said, turned to look at a child, and said in a deep voice: "Lao Su has entrusted you to me, and you will follow me from today on." ”

The children were silently crying silently.

Wang Xiu turned around and hugged Li Caixuan again, looking at the old man who seemed to be sleeping, his eyes became extremely resolute, and he said softly: "Don't worry, Lao Su." ”xh118
