Chapter 398: First Encounter
Father Jiang quickly realized that his action was a little inappropriate, and coughed, "You're from the north, right?" There are people sent by the government to provide disaster relief, you can go to them and ask for something to eat. ”
Wang Sheng was still silent and didn't speak, Jiang Miaomiao pulled Jiang's father's clothes, "Dad, this little brother has no one to take care of, can you let him go back to our house?" ”
"This ......" Father Jiang was a little surprised, Miao Miao should have seen this young man for the first time, why did he like him so much, and there was a trace of jealousy in his heart.
Immediately I felt very funny, Miao Miao just sympathized with this young man, although his daughter was a little delicate, but she was kind by nature.
"Miao Miao, my brother also has his own family, how can he go home with us?" Father Jiang explained with a smile, pulling Jiang Guo'er and preparing to leave.
Jiang Miaomiao leaned on Jiang's father's shoulder and looked at Wang Sheng, for some reason, she felt empty in her heart, as if she had lost something very important.
As he walked, Jiang's father suddenly noticed a cold on his back, and when he stopped to look, his daughter was crying to tears.
"Miao Miao, what's wrong?" Father Jiang looked at Jiang Miaomiao nervously.
Jiang Miaomiao shook her head while crying, she couldn't tell what was wrong with her, but she was crying more and more.
Father Jiang couldn't coax him well, Jiang Guo'er suddenly said, "My sister shouldn't be reluctant to give up that little boy, right?" ”
Father Jiang's hand that wiped her tears froze in place, and asked in a low voice, "Miao Miao, are you reluctant to give up that brother?" ”
After seeing the immature little daughter nodding, Jiang's father was in a very complicated mood.
"Miao Miao, my father has already told you just now, we can't take that brother home, you are a good boy, you should be sensible." Jiang's father patiently explained to Jiang Miaomiao.
Jiang Miaomiao lowered her head and peeled off her little hands, and replied with a sob, "But the little brother looks so pitiful." ”
In the end, Jiang's father really had no choice, so he had to promise Jiang Miaomiao to go back and have a look, and if the little boy didn't have parents, he would consider taking him home.
Father Jiang sighed helplessly in his heart, if this boy is really an orphan, then what should he do? Do you really want to bring him home? So how should he explain to his wife that he brought a child back after a trip?
Fortunately, by the time they returned to their original place, they had already seen a middle-aged couple surrounding the boy.
After Wang Sheng heard the footsteps, he looked up, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Brother." Jiang Miaomiao struggled to get down in Jiang's father's arms, and as soon as Jiang's father put her down, she immediately ran to Wang Sheng.
"Brother, brother." Jiang Miaomiao asked Wang Sheng with a smile, "Is this your family?" ”
Wang Sheng nodded lightly, Jiang Miaomiao of course regretted that he couldn't come to his house, but he was also happy for him, and took his hand and said to himself.
Here, Jiang's father and Wang Sheng's father and mother also began to chat.
Jiang's father knew that their family's surname was Wang, and they fled here because their hometown was in trouble. Just now, Wang Sheng's parents heard that someone was giving porridge at the gate of the city, so they ran over and lined up.
Father Jiang frowned, and said with some displeasure, "Your husband and wife's hearts are inevitably too big, so you left the child here like this, what if you are taken away by the flower child?" ”
The royal father is an honest and honest man, and after hearing this, he scratched his head, and his words were full of guilt, "Brother Jiang is right, we heard that someone was distributing food at the time, and we were afraid that we would not be able to receive it if we were late, but we didn't expect the child to follow us." ”
"It's okay for the kid." Father Jiang could also understand their feelings, "What are your plans next?" ”
"We ...... It's not very clear either. The royal father's eyes were full of confusion, but when his eyes moved to the small bag of grain under his feet, there was a glimmer of light again.
"The court sent us a bag of grain, enough for us to live for several days, although I don't know anything, but I also have the strength, just find some work in the city these days, so that we won't starve to death."
Father Jiang listened to his words and couldn't help but shake his head, there were many victims in the city, and he wanted to find a job in the city, I'm afraid it would not be so easy.
He was originally a warm-hearted person, and seeing that his daughter liked the son of the Wang family so much, he couldn't help but remind, "I'm afraid you can't find a place to stay in the city, why don't you go to our village first, it's the autumn harvest and farming, and every family needs help." ”
The Wang family and his wife glanced at each other and said with gratitude, "Thank you Brother Jiang for reminding me." ”
In the end, the Wang family followed Jiang's father back to Jiangjia Village.
Jiang's father set up an ox cart, and from time to time there was the sound of his little daughter chirping behind him, sighing and shaking his head.
Jiang's mother is a very hearty and hospitable woman, and after knowing what happened to the Wang family, she smiled and said that they should live in their own house first.
The royal father and queen mother were excited and moved, and thanked Jiang's father and Jiang's mother again.
Jiang Miaomiao was the happiest to hear the news, and she immediately took Wang Sheng's hand, "Brother, will you live in our house in the future?" I can give you my rag doll to play with. ”
When Jiang Guo'er heard this, she pursed her lips dissatisfiedly, "Miao Miao, you don't let me touch your rag doll, how can you give it to him?" ”
Jiang Miaomiao hugged Wang Sheng's arm with a smile, "I just want to." ”
From the first time she saw this brother, she was extremely happy in her heart, as if she had found something very important.
Mother Jiang had never seen her little daughter like someone so much, and after glancing at Wang Sheng, she understood a little in her heart.
After a simple grooming, the boy showed a delicate and handsome face, Miao Miao has liked good-looking people since she was a child, Wang Sheng is the best-looking boy she has ever seen, and it is normal for the youngest daughter to like to play with him.
Wang Sheng's parents naturally would not live in Jiang's house in vain, and immediately offered to help them work to pay off their debts. Jiang's mother didn't postpone it, she agreed with a smile, but the conversation changed, and she said, "But you still have to pay a little for how much you work, and it costs 20 yuan a day for a long worker, so it's better to add 15 yuan a day for you." ”
Wang Sheng's parents didn't want it, but Jiang's mother was very persistent, and they had to accept it with gratitude.
That night, the family of three was crammed into one bed.
"Sheng'er, I see that Miao Miao likes to play with you very much, you can accompany her more." The Queen Mother said with gratitude, "If it weren't for Uncle Jiang's help, our family would probably still be sleeping on the streets." ”
Wang Sheng still didn't speak, and the queen mother knew that her son was withdrawn by nature and didn't like to play with other children, so she couldn't help but ask, "Don't you like Miao Miao?" ”
There was still silence in response to her, and just when she was about to fall asleep in a daze, she seemed to vaguely hear Wang Sheng's answer, "No." ”
The next day, when the sun had just peeked out, Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, and Wang Sheng's parents went out to work, leaving only a few children to look after the house at home.
Jiang Miaomiao has been circling around Wang Sheng since she woke up in the morning. Jiang Guo'er really couldn't stand her dog-legged appearance, took out a three-character scripture, and put it in front of Jiang Miaomiao angrily.
"You'll have to memorize this before you can go to school."
Jiang's father and Jiang's mother are very diligent, and the family has a small amount of savings, plus they think that reading and writing is a good thing, so they let their daughter also enter the school.
Now Jiang Miaomiao has also reached the time to go to school, but the school in the village has long had a rule that she must be able to memorize the three-character scripture before accepting it.
Jiang Miaomiao felt a headache when she saw the book in front of her, and turned her head away, "I don't want to memorize it, I want to play with my brother." ”
"Nope." Jiang Guo'er was just about to teach Jiang Miaomiao a few words, when she saw that the young man who had not spoken was weak enough to take the book in front of her and walked up to Jiang Miaomiao, "I'll teach you." ”
"At the beginning of man, his nature is good."
When the two adults came back, they saw such a scene, Wang Sheng was holding a book and teaching Jiang Miaomiao very much, and Jiang Miaomiao, who had never been able to sit still before, actually followed the study honestly.
Mother Jiang was deeply relieved that someone could finally control her little daughter.
After more than ten days of getting up early and returning late, the busy autumn harvest has finally passed.
And after getting along during this time, the two families also cultivated a little friendship, and finally with the help of the Jiang family, Wang Sheng's father and mother found a dilapidated and abandoned small house in the village, and after a simple repair, they settled down.
But in this way, the Wang family has no reason to continue to live in the Jiang family, the day they left, Jiang Miaomiao cried tears, and pulled Wang Sheng's sleeve to prevent him from leaving.
Jiang's father and Jiang's mother felt very troubled by this, just when they were about to take Jiang Miaomiao away by force.
Wang Sheng, who had not spoken, squatted in front of Jiang Miaomiao, who was crying breathlessly, and gently and carefully wiped the tears from her face, "Don't cry, you can come to my house to play, every day." He deliberately accentuated the last few words.
Jiang Miaomiao's tear-soaked eyes looked at Wang Sheng misty, "Really? ”
"Hmm." Wang Sheng nodded solemnly.
Jiang Miaomiao stretched out her little thumb, "Then let's pull the hook." ”
Looking at the serious appearance of the children, the two parents looked at each other and smiled.
Time passes, and eight years have passed in the blink of an eye.
"Wang Sheng, have you finished the homework assigned by the master last time?"
Jiang Miaomiao has now become a delicate girl, with an innocent and romantic smile on her face, since she grew up, she no longer calls Brother Wang Sheng, but directly calls him by his name.
The young man with a cold temperament beside her, that is, Wang Sheng, frowned slightly, "Are you playing and not doing your homework again?" ”
Jiang Miaomiao smiled, "The homework assigned by the master is too difficult, and I am not as smart as you, I know that you must have done it a long time ago." ”
Wang Sheng's eyes were full of helplessness when he looked at her, and there was a hint of pampering, "I promised my aunt that I wouldn't be able to help you with your homework anymore." ”
