Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Child and the Son
Although the old woman could not see, the child who was called the little stone nodded silently, but did not speak. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The old woman turned her head, her eyes darkened, but there was a look of determination on her face.
"Is there something wrong with my little rock outside? If so, my wife will not tolerate it, and now I will let you take people away. ”
"Grandma!" Xiao Shi grabbed the old woman's sleeve, her face was full of reluctance, and two lines of tears flowed down instantly.
The old woman lost her kindness just now, and she grabbed the little stone by the shoulder and shook it desperately.
"How many times have I told you, after you are Zhongliang, your father was forced to take refuge here because he was framed by a slut, and he still wanted to serve the court until he died. We can be poor, but we must not do those things that are traitors, why don't you listen? ”
The old woman was emotional, her voice trembled, but her tone was categorical, and she didn't have the slightest intention of protecting her grandson, but Liu He and the others could see it clearly, and the old woman's face was clearly distressed and reluctant.
Wang Tie and Wei Xiao frowned, and Qin Shuang turned his head even more, unable to bear to look at it again.
Liu He walked over and sat down gently beside the old woman.
"Old man, don't worry, Xiaoshi is very well-behaved, and often helps others, just now my money bag fell and was picked up by him, and he also came to return it to me, we came this time, it is specially to thank you."
Xiao Shi turned his head to look at Liu He, with a hint of surprise on his face, but more of gratitude.
The old woman asked incredulously, "Really?" What you say is true? ”
Liu He gently took the old woman's hand, the calluses on the old man's hands were dense, very rough, listening to what the old man said just now, he was obviously from a big family, but he didn't know how much he had suffered since he fell here.
Liu He's heart was sour, but he still tried to keep a smile on his face.
"Of course it's true, it's all your old credit to be able to teach your grandson so well."
The old woman finally couldn't bear the sourness in her heart anymore, and instantly burst into tears, but she still didn't forget to stretch out her other hand to help her grandson wipe away the tears of grievance.
"I knew that my little stone was the most sensible, and he would not disappoint his dead father."
Liu He stood up and retreated back to his original place, he really couldn't bear to disturb this scene full of family affection, at this moment, except for the ancestors and grandchildren in front of him, everything else was superfluous.
After the old woman's mood stabilized and Xiao Shi stopped sobbing, Liu He said again.
"Old man, I heard Xiaoshi say that you are sick just now, I don't know if you have improved recently?"
The old woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled politely, "It's not a serious illness, don't worry, don't worry." ”
Xiao Shi said aggrievedly on the side: "Don't worry about anything, the doctor said, if you don't take medicine again, your illness should be delayed." ”
The old woman was obviously a little embarrassed, "Don't listen to Xiaoshi's nonsense, this child is too worried about me, in fact, I can get better without taking medicine." ”
Liu He understood as soon as he heard it, the old woman's illness must have been delayed because she had no money to buy medicine.
He turned around and glanced at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao suddenly understood, patted his chest, and motioned to bring the silver two on his body.
Only then did Liu He put his mind at ease, turned around and said to the old woman.
"Old man, since we have known each other for a while, it is fate, and you don't have to be polite to me. You should rest for a while, and I will take the little stone to buy medicine now. If there is anything, wait until you are cured. ”
Liu He knew that the old man would be at a loss for his generosity, and staying here would only make the old man even more embarrassed, so he turned around and walked out the door after he finished speaking.
Walking to the door, Liu He looked back at the equally overwhelmed little stone and smiled brightly.
"Let's go, take me around and buy something delicious."
When he was sure that the guy in front of him, who had disgusted him so much, was not talking, the little stone finally broke into tears and laughed, wiped the tears from his face, and strode after him.
That day, in that narrow and long alley, there was a rare scene.
A child in tattered clothes, followed by a well-dressed son. The two of them are quite contrasting, but they talked and laughed along the way.
"What do you want to do when you grow up?" Childe asked with a smile.
When the child heard this, he immediately came to his senses, "Of course, like my father, I went into battle as a general to kill the enemy." ”
Childe nodded, "Then do you know what a general is like?" ”
The child pursed his lips, "Of course you know, tall horses, golden helmets and golden armor." ”
Childe smiled and shook his head, "Then will you write the words "Golden Helmet and Golden Armor?" ”
The child shook his head.
"Then do you know how to march and set up?"
The child shook his head again.
"If you catch a spy and find out the information on him, can you understand it?"
The child shook his head anyway, a look of disappointment on his face.
"I'll teach you to read and write." Childe said softly.
The child looked disdainful, "Reading and literacy is a fart, and you can't go into battle to kill the enemy." ”
Childe stopped, "Reading can make you literate and hyphenated, not only can you write golden helmets and golden armor, but also allow you to understand military books and learn to arrange troops." When you learn this, you can naturally ride a tall horse and go into battle to kill the enemy. ”
The child's eyes lit up, "Really? ”
Childe smiled without saying a word, and strode forward.
The child froze in place, thinking for a long time, only to find that the son had drifted away, and hurriedly caught up.
"As long as I can be a general, let me do anything."
"What if you were to get out of here with me?" Childe stopped again and turned around and asked.
"Get out of here?" The child was obviously hesitant, "What about my grandmother?" And the big tiger, the little tiger, the little sparrow, what do they do? ”
Childe smiled indifferently, "As long as they want, they can go with you." ”
The child was a little excited, "Then you will also teach the big tiger, the little tiger and the little sparrow to read and write?" ”
In the alley that day, the child heard an answer that he didn't really understand until many years later.
"I want all the children in the world to have books, food, clothes, and a home to go back to."
Liu He took the small stone to grab the medicine, and went to the restaurant where Wang Tie had frequented for a turn, and the shopkeeper recognized Wang Tie at a glance in the crowd, and hurriedly ran to the door of the store to tear off the notice that Wang Tie had dared to repost for a long time after Wang Tie left.
Needless to say, you can guess that the content on the notice is what Wang Tie said that day, eat half of the sheep without taking a penny, and pay ten times the amount if you can't eat it.
