Chapter 96: Coming Home

The woman was stunned by Nan Qiaomu's slap, Leng Leng looked at Nan Qiaomu for a long time, and then howled like a pig.

Some local people who were familiar with the restaurant owner were about to step forward to help, but when they saw that behind Ye Huan and the four of them, a group of burly and fierce-looking black-clothed men had gathered around at some point, and their momentum was terrifying.

The crowd who was about to move immediately chose to watch, and refused to come out again.

The woman howled for a while, seeing that the situation was not right, Ye Huan's eyes were blazing with anger, and seeing his expression, it seemed that she wanted to beat them, the woman quickly shut up, dragged the fainted male boss into the house, closed the door tightly, and never dared to come out again.

Ye Huan turned around and picked up Xiaoqing, wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, and the dirty stains, and turned her head to look at the crowd of onlookers in the market, some of them were truck drivers from other places, and some were owners of local restaurants and grocery stores, all of whom looked at him in awe.

Ye Huan looked at everyone, and the sour memories of many years ago came to his heart.

Suppressing the churning emotions in his heart, Ye Huan hugged Xiaoqing and said loudly to the crowd of onlookers: "We are orphans, we don't collect the sky, we don't raise the earth, but we don't steal or rob, and we haven't reached out to beg for you, our faces are dirty, our hands are dirty, but our hearts are clean!" We are not small to eat, not before, and even less in the future! Don't look at us with that kind of look at us when we ask for food, the children who come out of our welfare homes are all upright people! Except for our miserable background, we are no worse than any of you! ”

Nan Qiaomu and the three of them stood behind Ye Huan, looking at his slightly trembling body, and the tears of the three of them couldn't help but flow all over their faces.

Holding Xiaoqing tightly, Ye Huan turned around and got into the car.

"Brother Huan, we're not asking for food, are we?" Xiao Qing blinked his big clear eyes and asked in a low voice.

Ye Huan nodded heavily: "We don't ask for food, we will live happier than everyone else in the future!" ”

The convoy left the bazaar, and the welfare institute was not far from the bazaar, and in the low wall, a three-story old building stood lonely, dilapidated and mottled, like an old man who was barely breathing, with his old and weak body, doing his best to protect a faith that had been unswerving for decades.

One by one, the children with a sad background grew up, and when they went out, the children who were still crying in their infancy were brought in.

Year after year, the old building bears the suffering of the children, witnesses the heat and coldness of the world, and countless laughter and crying are staged in this building.

This is a forgotten corner of the world, but every child who goes out remembers it all the time, in addition to material scarcity, the most in the old building is sweet happiness, which is especially precious in poverty.

Ye Huan and the four of them looked at the old building that was getting closer and closer, their eyes gradually moistened, thinking back to the old dean's angry scolding, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.

The four of them looked at each other, and each other had warm smiles in their eyes.

Went home.

The convoy stopped in front of the welfare home, and a group of children curiously gathered around, pointing to a row of Mercedes-Benz cars and discussing.

Ye Huan hugged Xiaoqing and got out of the car and exhaled a long breath.

The children stared at Ye Huan timidly, and no one dared to come forward to speak.

The corners of Ye Huan's mouth widened, and he shouted strangely: "You little bastards, don't you know me?" ”

The children cried out with joy.

"Brother Huan, it's Brother Huan!"

"Brother Huan and Sister Qiao Mu are back!"

"I'll call the dean's grandfather ......"

Ye Huan laughed, stepped forward to pick up a child, whether his little face was dirty or not, and tried to take a sip on his face.

The monkey and Zhang San walked behind with an unhappy face, and the monkey muttered hatefully: "These little rabbit cubs, there is only Brother Huan in their eyes, don't we also stand here alive?" Listen to their tone as if we were dead outside......"

Zhang San nodded indignantly: "That's it!" ”

A group of children surrounded Ye Huan and walked happily all the way into the courtyard.

In the courtyard behind the old building there is a reading log cabin, which is the residence of the old dean.

Everyone talked and laughed and walked to the front of the wooden house, and the old dean's rickety body slowly walked out, still with that full of energy, and scolded and scolded: "What are a bunch of rabbits arguing about?" ”

The children were not afraid of him, and they still laughed and laughed.

Ye Huan stepped forward with a smile and said, "Old dean, Xiao Huanzi greets you, you are auspicious." ”

As he spoke, he also gave him a thousand calls.

The old dean squinted his eyes for a moment, and snorted: "It turns out that you are the rabbit cub who came back, and you scourged Lao Tzu's dog last time, who do you want to harm this time?" ”

"Look at what you said, who can I harm such a kind and sunny child? The dog was an accident last time, why don't you boast about my so many advantages? ”

The old dean scolded with a smile: "You have the advantage of fart!" From childhood to adulthood, there is not a day when you don't cause trouble for Lao Tzu, fortunately you got out early, otherwise Lao Tzu would have to live ten years less. ”

Ye Huan was unhappy: "What are these words?" Didn't you also enjoy the blessings when I was in the courtyard? ”

The old dean's eyes glared: "Lao Tzu enjoys happiness with you?" Fart! When has Lao Tzu enjoyed your blessings? Half of my gray hair is gray from you. ”

Ye Huan said with a smile: "You remember your surname too badly, when I was ten years old, I went to the village with the monkey to steal chickens, stole more than a dozen chickens in one night, and added a meal to my younger brothers and sisters, don't you also eat very happily?" ”

The old dean was so angry that his beard curled: "Fart!" I'm so angry with you that I'm going to die, how can I eat the chicken you stole from? ”

Saying that, the old dean sneered again, and said with a serious face: "...... Lao Tzu just tasted two bites, see if they are ripe or not, don't let the little rabbits have tummy. ”

The crowd laughed.

The old dean said with a straight face: "You still have a smile!" How did I educate you before? Who taught you to steal from other people? ”

"Old dean, the family that was stolen beat the children in our yard during the day, let's take revenge, people are poor, we can't be bullied, right?"

"It's just a matter of stealing chickens, who among you has a brain problem, and you have to leave a font on the wall after stealing other people's chickens?"

Ye Huan and the monkey pointed at Zhang Sanyi at the same time.

Zhang San smiled dryly: "Doesn't the great theft of treasures throughout the ages have to leave a well-known font size?" I am following the example of the ancients......"

The old dean was so angry that he kicked him: "When I mentioned this, Lao Tzu was angry, what did you write on the wall of someone's house at that time?" ”

Zhang San said in a humble heart: "Chicken thieves, Ali Baba and the forty thieves ......"

The old dean said angrily: "You read too many fairy tale books that year, right?" Leave the number for such a long time, do you know what people say? ”

"What do people say?"

The old dean glanced at him and said slowly: "People directly gave you an abbreviation, [***] thief." ”

Zhang San's face turned green: "............"

The monkey lamented towards Ye Huan: "Zhang San, this kid has grown up, step by step on the road of the second, and has never deviated. ”

Ye Huan nodded in approval: "It's important to persevere, it's not easy for San'er." ”

Everyone gathered in front of the old dean's wooden house and chatted happily.

The atmosphere was very warm, and everyone's eyes were full of admiration when they looked at the old dean.

The old man has a big temper and likes to scold, and the children occasionally slap their little butts when they make mistakes, but in everyone's eyes, the old dean is their backbone and the backbone that really supports this welfare home.

The backbone of the heart is also getting old, and the years have left deep traces of vicissitudes on his face, in the past twenty years, from radiant to today's rickety, the old dean's gray hair is getting more and more, his waist is becoming more and more bent, and the burden on his shoulders is getting heavier and heavier, for twenty years, the old dean's appearance has been changing, from vigorous to aging, but in Ye Huan's heart, it seems that it has never changed.

The children who went out are all heartbroken for this real father, no matter what industry they are in, no matter how thin the income is, the children will always send back a little money every year, hundreds of yuan, thousands of yuan, although it can't solve the difficulties of hundreds of younger brothers and sisters, at least it can make the old dean less tired, and there is no need to drag the old body in the last years of the wind and candle, and stretch out his hand to the rich people who are so rich.

Everyone is unfortunate that they were abandoned by their ruthless parents when they were infants.

Everyone is lucky, at least in this cold world, they have met a really good father.

An old man who is willing to abandon even a man's self-esteem for the sake of his children, how fortunate the children are.

Pinching the blackened tobacco pouch pot, the old dean skillfully scooped a pot of dry tobacco from the tobacco pouch.

Ye Huan hurriedly took out a handful of Cuban cigars from his pocket and handed it to the old dean: "Don't smoke that thing, it's too rushing, it's not good for your health, try this, it is said to be a real Cuban origin, hundreds of dollars a piece." ”

The old dean was a little surprised: "A black thing costs hundreds of dollars?" …… Rich people are really evil. ”

Ye Huan cut off the cigar head with an eggplant scissor, lit it for the old dean, and said with a smile: "Why is it so expensive?" Naturally, there is a reason, men all over the world are willing to pay for it, and if you hear the reason, you must prefer it......"

The old dean took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and said, "What is the reason?" ”

Ye Huanwei smiled: "I heard that this kind of cigar is a rare thing in Cuba, it is hand-rubbed by those virgins who have never budded on their thighs. This cigarette is the most suitable for an old bachelor like you, and it will harden you when you smoke it......"

"Ahem, cough, ahem......" The old dean choked, coughing and his face flushed.

ps: There is a change in the evening......
