Chapter 8: Adoption (2)
Xia Taobai was discharged from the hospital three days ago, and he would come to Liucun every day for the past three days, in order to find Zou Yi, through these three days of investigation, Zou Yi's background has also been clear, leaving aside the mysterious master behind him, as far as Zou Yi's current situation is concerned, life is not satisfactory, and he is also an orphan, I am afraid that there are no relatives in this world, and he can take care of his life so orderly at a young age, which also makes Xia Taobai, who is accustomed to wind and waves, moved.
"Going to school?" Zou Yi is a little embarrassed by this question, it's not that he doesn't want to go to school, and his mother's wish is that he hopes that he can study and become a talent, but the master also said that books must be read, but it's not time yet.
"What, don't want to go to school? Or are you afraid of running out of money? Xia Taobai said with a smile.
Zou Yi glanced at Old Man Liu, and said helplessly: "I want to go to school when I grow up." ”
How could Zou Yi's small actions hide from the worldly Xia Taobai, and quietly inquired: "Is the master not letting you?" ”
Hearing him talk about the master, Zou Yi was not surprised, he was able to find this place and asked around, although there were not many people who knew about the Tao about the matter of apprenticeship on the mountain, it was not a secret, he shook his head and said: "Master also wants me to go to school, but he said that it is still early to go to school." ”
"That's it" Since the master said so, Xia Taobai didn't say anything more, but looked at Zou Yi's eyes and became more and more gentle.
"Xiao Yi, Uncle Xia has another question for you, I don't know what you think."
"You ask," Zou Yi said dryly.
"Well, that's the case, your aunt has always wanted a son, and your uncle likes you very much, how do you think of being your uncle's son?" Xia Taobai said cautiously.
To tell the truth, from the first sight of Zou Yi, Xia Taobai fell in love with this child, although he was born in the countryside, he has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and his skin is a little darker, but after all, he is a boy, and they all say that a man wants to be black to be a man, which makes him a little more manly; After some exchanges later, Xia Taobai likes Zou Yi more and more, kind-hearted, well-spoken, and respectful of teachers, even those big families can't cultivate such children, I originally heard that Zou Yi had a master and dispelled the idea, but this will come out again.
Xia Taobai's mouth frightened a few people in the room, Liu Lin knew that the old fairy on the mountain was not easy to mess with, when he went up the mountain to enter the Tao, he also worshiped a master, his master also had an identity in the Dao Gate of Qiyun Mountain, but when he mentioned the master of the little guy, he had to respectfully call the old-timer, it is conceivable that what kind of identity the old fairy should be, but now this Xia Taobai is clearly grabbing apprentices with him, if the old fairy starts a fire, I really don't know who else can stop it.
However, the first person to speak was the director of the Family Planning Office who had been sitting in the corner as an audience, coughed dryly, obviously choked by Xia Taobai's words, and said: "Xia Dong, this is not appropriate." ”
Of course, what he said was inappropriate did not mean that Xia Taobai could not adopt Zou Yi, but he felt that Zou Yi could not afford such a great blessing.
"What's inappropriate, Director Meng, don't think that Xiao Yi took advantage of me, but in fact, I took advantage of it," Xia Taobai said with a smile.
"Mr. Xia, I think it's best to listen to Yi'er's opinion on this matter first" Liu Lin couldn't sit still, listening to the meaning of these two, it seemed that this was settled, if he didn't speak again, it would be a big disaster.
"Yes, yes, this matter depends on Xiao Yi's own thoughts" Xia Taobai looked at Zou Yi and said expectantly.
In fact, the most shocking thing is not the above two, Zou Yi will still have a long mouth, hearing Xia Taobai ask himself, first uh-huh twice, after coming back to his senses to sort out his thoughts, then said helplessly: "I can't be the master of this, I want to go back and ask the master, he said, one day as a teacher and a father for life." ”
As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Lin and Director Meng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but Xia Taobai couldn't help but feel a little lost, reached out and touched Zou Yi's head, and said with a wry smile: "Good boy, it's my uncle who doesn't have this blessing." ”
Looking at Xia Taobai, Zou Yi was also a little moved in his heart, and he could see that the man in front of him really liked him, and that fatherly care couldn't be faked, but unfortunately Zou Yi couldn't tolerate anyone in his heart except his mother, of course, there was also the master on the mountain, in the past few years of getting along, he really regarded the master as a grandfather, and this feeling even exceeded the longing for his mother.
"Uncle Xia, don't you have any children?"
"Of course, my uncle has a daughter, who is two years older than you, you have to call my sister, and if you have a chance, my uncle will bring her over to play with you."
Xia Taobai can also let go, since he can't do it, then he simply doesn't think about it.
"Okay, call Xiaopang, this kid likes to see beautiful women the most" Zou Yi said innocently.
It's just that as soon as these words came out, Old Man Liu's face instantly drooped, and he almost couldn't get up in one breath, and then looked at Zou Yi's cunning eyes, feeling that this little guy deliberately made himself ugly, and he was suddenly angry, if he didn't scruple about having a guest here, he would have been scolded at this time.
"Xiao Yi, Uncle Xia's life was saved by you, but in the end nothing helped you, otherwise, you can tell me what you want, as long as Uncle Xia can do it, it will satisfy you."
"Are you really satisfied?" Zou Yi couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it's true, could it be that Uncle Xia will still lie to you?" Xia Taobai said seriously.
"Oh, in that case, Uncle Xia, you can give me some money." Saying that, Zou Yi stretched out his little hand in front of Xia Taobai.
"Zou Yi, don't be big or small, do you have such a talk" Hearing Zou Yi ask Xia Taobai for money, Director Meng couldn't look at it, he didn't want to make Xia Taobai feel that the people in Qiyun Mountain were so greedy for money and had no quality because of Zou Yi, but he didn't want to think about it, if Zou Yi really cared about this, as long as he promised Xia Taobai just now, he would already become a rich boy by this time, and he still needed to make so many detours.
Zou Yi didn't seem to hear Director Meng's words, the little hand was still firmly placed in front of Xia Taobai, Xia Taobai stopped Director Meng from continuing, and said with interest: "Xiao Yi, money is a good thing, tell me, how much do you want?" ”
Zou Yi tilted his head and thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Five hundred." ”
"How much?" Xia Taobai thought he had heard it wrong, so he couldn't help but ask again.
"Five hundred yuan, not a single point is missing," Zou Yi gritted his teeth and said firmly.
"Eh, five hundred yuan" Xia Taobai's old face turned red, very embarrassed, this kid asked himself for five hundred yuan, and asked twice, and then thought that his life was only worth five hundred yuan when he arrived at Zou Yi, he really couldn't laugh or cry. It's just that he didn't know that these five hundred yuan was already a huge amount of money in Zou Yi's mind.
"Can you tell me what you're doing with the five hundred?" Xia Taobai said curiously.
Zou Yi counted with his fingers: "Make two sets of clothes for the master first, the one on his body can no longer be worn, well, I have to buy two pairs of shoes for the master; There is also a master who likes to write, even there is no rice paper on the mountain, it is all yellow paper, so I need to buy more rice paper; I also have to buy a piece of inkstone, and the one that Master is using now is broken; Radio, yes, I have to buy a radio, it's the kind of thing that can hear sounds, it's boring on the mountain, and Master won't go down with me, so let him listen to the radio when I'm not on the mountain; My mother said that I wanted to eat cake on my birthday, but I had never eaten cake with my mother, so that's all, five hundred yuan should be enough. ”
Zou Yi only cared about talking, but he didn't notice that Xia Taobai's eyes were already covered with a layer of mist, and Old Man Liu wiped a few old tears.
"I really didn't expect that five hundred yuan can buy so many things" Xia Taobai pulled Zou Yi's little hand and took him into his arms, touched Zou Yi's head, and said with emotion: "Good boy, your five hundred yuan is a lesson that Uncle Xia can't buy for five million." ”
