Chapter 364: A Strange Thing
Traveling from the south of the city to the east of the city, along the way, there were guys who got off the bus one after another and returned to their respective jobs. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Seeing that it was almost at the foot of Dongshan, the originally mighty Zhao Siniang and his party were now only left with Zhao Siniang, Jiang Helianzi and Wan Qixian, as well as the old man who was driving the car.
After some hesitation, he saw that there was no one around, so he stopped the car.
"Uncle Mao, is something wrong?" Zhao Siniang found that the car had stopped, and asked with confusion.
"This ......" The old man was a little embarrassed to speak, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
In Zhao Siniang's opinion, the old man is really a wonderful person. Just asked him to ask for a doctor, he drove around the neighborhood in the car, and saw that the people at the door of Zhao Erlang's house had dispersed, and he came back again. I also invited a doctor, and I didn't even invite a person back. His approach really won Zhao Siniang's heart.
What difficulties will he have in such an old man who can do things, and he can't resort to it?
Zhao Siniang thought about it carefully, she remembered that the old man's family background was not very good, and their whole family, including her daughter-in-law, were all porters on the dock, and they all relied on selling their strength to eat, and it was difficult to even ensure food and clothing, and it was very difficult. But he had a blind old lady who was seriously ill a few years ago and had to hang herself by taking medicine. How can such a family afford a medicine jar, his poor family will soon see the bottom, and if he continues like this, I am afraid that he will have to run to borrow money from Yinzi.
Where can I borrow money at will? It's a broken thing, and you can't mess with anything. In order not to go that far, his son and daughter-in-law all put pressure on Lao Maotou, persuading him not to spend the family's money on his blind old lady anymore, and let him do less of those futile and useless work.
The old man wanted to save his mother's life, but he couldn't withstand the pressure from his son and daughter-in-law, so he sat on the dock and cried in desperation.
This scene happened to be seen by Zhao Siniang, who was wandering around, and she saw that the fifty or sixty-year-old man was actually crying like a child, even if her heart was not particularly soft, she couldn't help but feel pity. After she asked about the difficulties of the old man, she hired him and his daughter-in-law.
The old man and his daughter-in-law have been picking goods on the dock for a lifetime, and their bodies have long been exhausted. So, Zhao Siniang asked Lao Maotou to drive a car to her house, and asked his daughter-in-law to go to her house to eat soup in the food shop. The work is all light work, but the treatment given by Zhao Siniang is not low, not only is it enough for their husband and wife to support a large family, but even the old lady's medicine money has been settled.
"Uncle Mao, have you encountered any difficulties again? If that's the case, just tell me that if I can reach out, I'll definitely reach out. Don't be embarrassed! Zhao Siniang said with a smile.
The old man hurriedly shook his hand and said: "No, no, thanks to the care of the owner, now that the little old man is having a good time, where will he encounter any difficulties?" ”
Seeing that Zhao Siniang treated him sincerely, the old man gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and confided in the thing that was not easy to say.
It's a long story.
It turned out that Zhao Siniang's family took pity on the elderly, even if they were in a hurry, they would not let Lao Maotou wait for a few elderly old men to transport goods in the wind and rain, but let them stay at her house and wait. She has to meet someone in her family who needs to go out for something, so she will call them over to catch the car.
The population of Zhao Siniang's family is already small, and only Zhao Sanniang and Zhao Yongzhong often use cars when they go out, but there are as many as four or five coachmen in her family, so the old man is idle and panicked many times.
The old impostor is different from other old men, those old men like to be lively, they love to go to the teahouse to read books and listen when they have nothing to do, and the old impostor has been on the bustling dock for most of his life, and he is the most annoying. He also loves to listen to books, but he would rather go back and listen to his little grandchildren than go to a crowded teahouse to join in the fun. When he is free, he likes to find a secluded place and smoke a shisha deliciously.
The old man was waiting in a deserted corner when he discovered something strange.
It is said that in order to take care of Li Cuiping, Zhao Yongzhong and his wife took her and her family to Fucheng. In line with the principle that it is more convenient to take care of them nearby, Zhao Yongzhong and his wife originally planned to let them live in their own home. But Mrs. Chen said that their family is a widow, and it is not good to live in other people's homes to attract bad luck to others, no matter how Zhao Yongzhong and his wife persuade her, she just refuses to move into Zhao Siniang's house.
Zhao Yongzhong and his wife had no choice but to choose another residence nearby for the Li family. According to Mrs. Chen's wishes, the new residence is located on the corner of the street, and the surroundings are very secluded, and outsiders will never pass through this widow's door if they have nothing to do, which is very suitable for their family to close the door and live.
The Li family seems to be so scrupulous in their duties, but they were seen by the old man, at dusk, the Li family opened the back door for a young man who was behind closed doors, and after a long time, until it was completely dark, the young man quietly left from the back door of the Li family with a burden.
It is a bit strange that the widow of the Li family secretly entertained a big man when it was not too late.
The old man couldn't help but gossip, but whenever he didn't have any work in the evening, he would be in that hidden corner, staring at the back door of the Li family.
It doesn't matter if you don't stare at it, you will be shocked when you stare at it. The young man would go to the widow's door every once in a while, and when he came, he would basically come empty-handed, but when it was time to leave, he would most likely return with a large bag and a small bag.
It is true that whether the Li family is upside down or not is not a matter of his old head, he just looks at the excitement, at most he is happy in his heart, and there is no need to do anything to expose this matter.
But the old man knows the Li family's family background. I think that when Zhao Yongzhong and his wife brought the Li family to Fucheng, he also went to pick up people. He remembered very well that none of the luggage brought by the Li family could fill a car, and those luggage were all broken copper and iron, and they were not worth a few silver coins at all. In other words, the Li family itself does not have much furniture, and what their family has now comes from Zhao Siniang's family.
Zhao Siniang's family is grateful to Li Cuiping for being widowed for Zhao Yongxiao, so she gave the Li family such a good treatment. But the Li family took Zhao Siniang's money, but they were secretly raising Han, and they were a little sorry for Zhao Siniang's family.
Originally, he wanted to tell Zhao Sanniang about this, but he thought about it, but he was embarrassed to speak.
Now that Zhao Siniang is back, she has to visit Li Cuiping, and she is grateful for Zhao Siniang's kindness to him, and she really can't bear to see her in the dark, and after hesitating, she finally told her about it.
