Chapter 158: Two Children

Li Xiaonuan said that chili peppers are spicy and poisonous, but they can be eaten. There are also people who can't eat it, but there are few people like that.

Such contradictory words are the most unbelievable. It's just that many people who have been in contact with Xiao Chili do have the symptoms that Li Xiaonuan said. Therefore, everyone is convinced of Li Xiaonuan's statement.

"Xiao Nuan, if your eyes are really spicy and poisonous, how can you treat them?" The one who asked was an old man who came in a hurry.

From the back of the old man's rickety vicissitudes, it can be seen what kind of days he has passed. Judging from the old man's slightly ragged clothes, it is clear that he is not doing much well now.

"Grandpa, whose eyes in your family are spicy and poisonous?" Li Xiaonuan asked curiously.

The old man couldn't straighten up because he was bent all the time. Moreover, the old man kept his head down, and his head seemed to be unable to lift up. Therefore, Li Xiaonuan failed to capture the sadness and anger on the old man's face.

"It's my two unproductive grandsons, who are very bad in their eyes right now, and they are about to be ruined. Xiao Nuan, you should be poor and poor grandpa, I don't have much time, help my two grandsons. The old man said, really old tears.

But Li Xiaonuan listened very unpleasantly. From the old man's words, it can be seen that it was his two grandsons who spoiled these chili peppers. It's just that the old man's words actually implied coercion.

If Li Xiaonuan is unwilling to help the elderly, then it will be regarded as disrespecting the elderly. If Li Xiaonuan agrees to help, then the ruined chili field will end in nothing. It's just that in that case, who will be willing to grow chili farmers. In the end, it was still Li Xiaonuan who suffered a loss and carried the black pot.

"Old man, listen to what you say, and I will know that you are a learned man. It's just that I don't dare to answer your words. Look at the ground at your feet and how do you feel? Who does not have an old man in the house of the owner of the land, and who does not expect the things of the land to live? ”

Xiao Nuan didn't know why the old man's grandson was poisoned. But as things stand, your grandson has nothing to do with the spoiling of crops. Old man, why don't you let your two grandchildren come out and tell me what the hell is going on. ”

As Li Xiaonuan said in a warm voice, the people present also tasted a little bit of taste. Many people who are familiar with the old man are vying to tell Li Xiaonuan something about the two grandsons.

"Xiao Nuan, the two grandsons of the old Song Tou were picked up by him, the eldest one is only eight years old this year, and the younger one is not yet five years old." Aunt Zhou whispered in Li Xiaonuan's ear.

"Auntie, what about his family? I think he seemed to have a son. Li Xiaonuan didn't expect the so-called grandson to be like that.

Aunt Huang sighed on the side: "His son is not successful, he doesn't do his job all day, he fools around, and he hasn't come back for a long time." Originally, Lao Song Tou had a bit of a family business, but unfortunately he was defeated by his mother-in-law and his son. Even the original identity of Lao Song Tou's private school teaching was lost by those two people. ”

Li Xiaonuan was shocked, but she didn't expect that the old Song Tou was still a teacher: "Auntie, where did Grandpa Song pick up the two children?" ”

"It's the year before last. Old Song Tou went to the city to set up a stall to write letters for others, and someone threw the two children at his stall and ran away. There was no way, Lao Song Tou had to take the two children home and raise them. Granny Yu said.

Li Xiaonuan instantly felt guilty for his prescient thoughts. For this reason, she said apologetically to the old Song Tou: "Grandpa Song, it was Xiao Nuan who went too far, and Xiao Nuan apologized to you." Let's go, I'll go with you to your house to wash the eyes of your two grandchildren. ”

As she spoke, Li Xiaonuan turned her head again and explained some things to Zhou Jingjing in a low voice. Zhou Jingjing listened to it and ran away with a smile.

Old Song Tou lived in the westernmost part of the old Zhou village, in a dilapidated house. Although the roof is covered with tiles, it has been damaged by visual inspection. The mud walls of the yard had long since fallen off and collapsed, and were overgrown with all kinds of weeds and vines.

Li Xiaonuan stepped into the overgrown yard, looked at the crooked and hollowed out door of the main house and sighed. In the air, there is a faint smell of fresh chili peppers.

was brought into a sunny room on the left side of the main room by Lao Song Tou, and Li Xiaonuan was frightened by the two small figures curled up on the wooden bed.

Maybe it's because he can't stand the spiciness, the little one's eyes have been scratched out of blood by himself, and he is humming weakly at the moment, and he has no strength to struggle.

The big one could stand it, but he still rubbed his eyes with his hands from time to time.

The embarrassment of the two children made Li Xiaonuan very sad. They were so weak that they could tell they hadn't had enough to eat for a long time. Their exposed necks and faces were devoid of any flesh except a layer of skin that covered the bones.

This made Li Xiaonuan think about the days when they first wore it, and their family was also drinking half-full gruel. The whole family was thin and flat.

Seeing that the little child stretched out his little hand to his eyes again, Li Xiaonuan hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed it.

"Aunt Zhou, you go and help me get a basin of clean water to wash the eyes of these two children. No, they have to be washed all over. If my guess is correct, these two children must have been the ones who went to the field to pick peppers last night. As for who took them, we have to wait for their situation to get better before we can ask. Li Xiaonuan said.

Aunt Zhou went out to find a basin to fetch water with red eyes. Old Song Tou stood quietly to the side from beginning to end, except for a worried glance at the two children when he entered the door, there was no movement.

"Aunt Huang, you help them find out if they have clean clothes. The clothes on their bodies were all filled with chili juice, and if they hadn't changed quickly, they might have died of spicy juice. Li Xiaonuan said as she helped the two children undress.

I don't know if I don't know it, but as soon as I take it off, I scared the people who followed up to see the excitement. The two children's thin, withered bodies were covered with dredging. Looks like it was just added yesterday. The body that is already so thin that there is only a handful of bones left looks even more worrying.

It wasn't until the two children were placed in a basin of cold water that they stopped humming weakly. Li Xiaonuan used the water in the small basin and the clean handkerchief handed over by Lao Song Tou to carefully wash the eyes of the two children to alleviate their burning pain.

Zhou Jingjing soon came to Lao Song Tou's house with a jar of wine and a small jar of vinegar. Li Xiaonuan asked people to help change the clean water and come back, help the two children clean their bodies, and then poured the entire jar of liquor into the empty basin.

"Aunt Zhou, Aunt Huang, you help them wipe the wine on their bodies, don't stop. Jingjing, pour half a bowl of vinegar into that small basin, and then fill half a bowl of water for me. Grandpa Song, if you still have a clean handkerchief at home, find me two too. Li Xiaonuan spoke repeatedly, and those people moved.

When Li Xiaonuan easily put the handkerchief soaked in vinegar water over the eyes and faces of the two children, he was really relieved.
