Chapter 298: Conscience
readx; The sound of cicadas chirping in the trees, he just turned seven years old and woke up from a nap, came out of the backyard in a daze to find his father, and his favorite "red tassel gun" was received by his mother and relatives......
Recently, my mother always said that Jiu'er is not young, and she can't always dance like this, so she should take care of herself, either follow her father to learn how to make wine, or read the knowledge taught by Mr. Private School......
Winemaking......
Little Jiu'er pouted, rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked towards the front hall of the restaurant, the wisps of wine wafted from the front hall to the backyard, and even existed in every part of the restaurant. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This smell made Jiu'er very unhappy, and he felt that he seemed to have been smelling these wines since he was born.
He really couldn't figure out what was so good about those rushing and spicy things! Ask him to say that the well water in the backyard is sweeter than these things called "wine" in bottles!
Then you should follow Mr. to do your studies!
The mother's words rang out in Jiu'er's mind again.
Ay!
In his little head, he doesn't know what "learning" is! It's just that Mr. Private School's words, in Jiu'er's eyes, are like Dad's wine koji, sour and smelly!
Xiao Jiu'er was very proud that he had thought of this "apt" metaphor, and he came to his senses and ran a few steps quickly, intending to tell his father exactly what he said.
Dad is not like his mother, no matter what happens, he always says that he is wrong. Dad would only hold up Jiu'er with his rough and powerful hands, and laugh loudly and said, "Our Jiu'er is so smart!" ā
"Daddy!" The more Jiu'er thought about it, the happier he felt, he shouted happily and rushed to the front hall.
At that time, the business of Xinghualou was a monopoly in Langjing City, and many drinkers waited outside the restaurant almost from the morning in order to drink a "Xinghuajiu", for fear that they would come late......
But what's going on today?
Why doesn't there be a single drinker in the huge Xinghualou?
Daddy stood in the middle of the hall. Who was the one in front of him?
"Daddy......" Little Jiu'er was a little scared, but she walked forward ignorantly.
"Don't come here!" Shopkeeper Li shouted loudly, he didn't look at his precious son at all, but stared at the person in front of him.
Jiu'er was stunned. Dad had never been so fierce to him.
He couldn't help but step back, and secretly glanced at the person in front of his father.
That person, as if sensing that Jiu'er was peeking at him, actually turned around and smiled at Jiu'er.
Wu Da!
It's like Wu Da. It doesn't seem to be him!
For some reason, that smile made Jiu'er feel very scared.
He ran to the backyard with a loud cry of "wow".
Many years later, Jiu'er understood what Wu Da's smile represented, it was a kind of undisguised hideousness and greed!
That night, Jiu'er and her sister Ah Cai lay side by side on the couch, Ah Cai was still young at the time, and had already fallen asleep, Jiu'er was always humming and chirping in bed because of Wu Da during the day.
Mrs. Li didn't understand what was going on with this son, who usually fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow, today. She patted Jiu'er gently with her hand, and at the same time talked to the shopkeeper Li without a match: "I'd rather offend a gentleman than a villain, that Wu Daneng did such a thing, why did you expose him in public today?" ā
Shopkeeper Li was writing something under the lamp, and when he heard his mother's words, he didn't look up, but just snorted heavily.
And when the little Jiu'er heard the word "Wu Da", she was even more frightened and motionless, and she didn't even dare to make a sound.
Mrs. Li mistakenly thought that her son was asleep. Then he got up and came to the table, looked at the few lines of small words written by the shopkeeper Li on the paper, and whispered, "What is this for?" ā
"Don't do anything!" Shopkeeper Li was originally a winemaker with a straightforward personality, and he couldn't have imagined that he would kindly take him in. Even the person who carefully teaches what he has learned all his life is such a wolf ambition.
He sped up his writing and whispered, "the boy, you should go and rest first, I'll be ready." ā
Mrs. Li has been running a restaurant all these years, and she can be regarded as a little literal. She didn't speak, just looked carefully at the words written on the paper by Shopkeeper Li, she watched, watched, but couldn't help but exclaim.
"Here's your wine......" she asked in a trembling voice.
I don't know what kind of powerful wine my father made to surprise my mother like this?
Jiu'er secretly opened one eye, but saw that Mrs. Li's expression became more and more frightened, and she reached out to grab the white paper full of handwriting!
"Nonsense!" Shopkeeper Li stretched out his hand to stop Mrs. Li, "Ah Yue, what kind of person I am, you still don't know!" ā
As soon as he said this, Mrs. Li, who was already panicked, stopped snatching, but she still stared at the piece of paper and asked, "You say, what's going on!" ā
Shopkeeper Li couldn't hide his wife, and sighed heavily, and then, he looked at Jiu'er and Ah Cai worriedly, and Jiu'er hurriedly closed his eyes.
"This is all that Wu Da ......" Shopkeeper Li lowered his voice more and more, "Don't panic, after all, I can't know people clearly, and I'll affect you." ā
At that time, Jiu'er didn't understand what his father said to his mother, he only remembered his mother's panicked face and his father's expression of remorse.
"Ah Yue, I will go to the Yamen tomorrow morning and expose his evil form to the world!" Shopkeeper Li took his wife's hand and looked at a pair of children on the couch, "Even if I have to pay for this Xinghualou, I have to save those who have eaten wine Gu by mistake!" ā
Wine Gu!
Jiu'er's heart seems to have been hit hard by something, this name sounds so terrible!
Ah Cai also seemed to dream about something, and suddenly cried in her sleep......
Mrs. Li hurriedly waved her hand to the shopkeeper Li, then walked to the couch, picked up Ah Cai, looked at Jiu'er in the "sleeping", and said softly: "Then Wu Da is so vicious, we always have to ......think about it in the long run."
"It's too late!" Shopkeeper Li couldn't help but shake his head, and said bitterly, "Today I found out that he added such a thing to the wine, what if I hadn't found out before...... Looks like it's not been a day or two......"
It is no wonder that the business of restaurants has been almost too good recently, and it is overcrowded every day from the opening of restaurants......
Mrs. Li hugged her little daughter who gradually stopped crying, turned her head to look at Jiu'er on the couch, and said softly: "Father, child, what you have to do, just do it." My children and I have endured all kinds of hardships ......."
This is the last words of her father and mother in Jiu'er's memory.
He only remembered that in front of the candlelight, his father's figure was so tall, he hugged his mother, hugged his sister, and looked at himself, if, if time stopped at that moment, how good would it be...... (To be continued.) )
