Chapter 49: Is it a brother or an uncle?
In addition to guarding the river, Huaihe Village also guards a big mountain, but this mountain has not been developed, and it does not prevent most people from passing, and you don't need to pass through here if you want to go to the town, so there are not many people who usually come to the mountain to pick some wild vegetables and fruits, cut some wood, etc.
This mountain is also under the management of Huaihe Village, and it doesn't matter if you pick wild fruits, but you must submit a report to the village committee before cutting down the tree, otherwise it will be an encroachment on the property of the village committee.
The people of Huaihe Village are still accustomed to living on flat land, and there are many mosquitoes, insects, rats and ants on the mountain, and safety is not guaranteed during heavy rainstorms.
Halfway up the mountain, there is only one house, which belongs to the old man Jin.
Old man Jin didn't care much about life or death before, and he didn't care if the house was safe or not.
But that's no longer the case.
Old Man Jin couldn't help but smile lovingly as he looked at the child lying in his freshly nailed small wooden bed.
With such a child, there is indeed a feeling that life has been foggy now.
After all, Old Man Jin hadn't taken care of a child for many years, and although he had a note written to him by Chu Yuefang, he was still a little worried about whether he could take care of him.
Thankfully, there wasn't the scrambling he had imagined.
Feed the milk powder and paste on time, Xiao Longsheng is also delicious, and he will shout when he pees, but he doesn't cry or make trouble.
Old man Jin is most fortunate that this child doesn't like to cry, otherwise he will definitely panic when he cries, and if he doesn't cry, it's nothing.
Seeing that the sun was gradually coming to the middle, the old man Jin sat down on the earthen stove he had built.
He doesn't use a briquette stove, or burns firewood more handily, not to mention guarding this mountain, how much firewood is not enough for him to pick up.
"Uncle Kim!"
As soon as Old Man Jin made the fire bigger, he heard a shout, and when he raised his head, he saw Ling Hancheng and Ling Mu's father and son coming together.
"Hey, you two are here, come and sit down!" Old man Jin pointed to the wooden stool beside him.
These workmanship is rigorous, and there is no trace of wood to be found, and the wooden furniture is all made by the old man Jin himself.
I can't find anyone better than him.
After Ling Hancheng and Ling Mu sat down, Ling Hancheng said, "Uncle Jin, how is it, do you think you can handle this child after taking care of it?" ”
Old man Jin said happily: "Hehe, don't mention how good this is, this kid is obedient, never cries or makes trouble, and hums twice when he is hungry and thirsty, which is very worry-free." ”
Looking at Old Man Jin's extraordinarily relaxed appearance, you can also see that this is definitely not a lie.
But don't cry or make trouble......
"This is the same temperament as our daughter!" Ling Hancheng said with some surprise.
Could it be that children who have been discarded have such commonalities?
It's kind of incredible.
Old man Jin said: "Anyway, this child looks so healthy, it's a good thing not to cry or make trouble, otherwise I really can't handle it." ”
Ling Hancheng nodded: "This is also ......"
After saying this, Ling Hancheng got down to business.
On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, he held a banquet for Xiao Linglong, and he specially came to tell Old Man Jin that he would also take the child to the banquet at that time.
In the past few years, it is not that no one else has come to invite Old Man Jin to dinner, after all, he is a lonely old man, but the carpentry work is done well, and other people also want to have a good relationship with him, but Old Man Jin is generally not willing to go.
But Ling Hancheng has a good relationship with him, and he personally came to invite him, so it is not good for Old Man Jin not to give this face.
"Okay, good, I'll definitely go then!"
Ling Hancheng was also relieved to hear Old Man Jin agree.
At this moment, the water was just boiling, and the old man Jin poured the paste of flour into the kettle, which now basically replaced the pot.
After cooking, pour it into a bowl, and the old man Jin added a little milk powder to it, which cooled a little, and then poured it into the bottle.
This bottle was specially bought from the town by the old man Jin.
"Come on, come on, it's time to eat~" He stuffed the pacifier into the little doll's mouth.
There was no need for Old Man Jin to do anything, Xiao Longsheng stretched out his arm and hugged the bottle, and then drank it with a clatter.
Although it was not the first time that Old Man Jin had fed Xiao Longsheng, he couldn't help but sigh that this child was so energetic at a young age.
"This kid should be able to do carpentry with me when he grows up, how can he support himself with a skill." Old man Jin said.
Ling Hancheng nodded and said, "Yes, I will definitely be able to inherit your craftsmanship in the future." Boss, aren't you going to see your little brother? ”
Ling Mu: "......"
The relationship between Ling Mu and Old Man Jin has always been very good, originally Old Man Jin finally had a child, he should be happy for Old Man Jin.
But it would be best if there was no previous thing.
Before Ling Mu could move, he heard Old Man Jin say, "This is not my brother." ”
Ling Hancheng was stunned for a moment.
yes.
He called Old Man Jin uncle, and the adopted son of Old Man Jin should be regarded as his contemporary, so he said...... Ling Mu and the others had to call Xiao Longsheng uncle.
……
Rao is Ling Mu's appearance has never been shocked, and when he heard this, he also felt that his expression was a little broken.
A little milk baby.
They have to call uncle.
This title is simply unacceptable!
Ling Hancheng didn't know what his son was thinking, anyway, he couldn't help but want to laugh now.
Old man Jin must not have any relationship with him, but he called old man Jin uncle, and the son adopted by old man Jin must be a generation older than his son.
Sounds kind of funny.
Ling Mu's face turned a little blue.
Old man Jin came over and patted Ling Mu on the shoulder with a smile: "Ling Mu, when your Uncle Ah Sheng can walk and run, I have to ask you and your younger brothers to play with him." ”
Old man Jin actually wants to lay out future interpersonal relationships for his adopted son.
Ling Hancheng has a high prestige in the village and is also very popular, and his children will definitely be the leaders among the children of Huaihe Village in the future.
Old man Jin himself is not very gregarious, but he didn't expect that Xiao Longsheng would be as unsociable as him in the future.
It is certainly not okay for people to live in the world and have no contact with other people at all.
Ling Mu looked at this "uncle" lying on the small wooden bed, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching a little, but he didn't say anything else for a long time.
It's all a sure thing, what room can he have as a child.
Staring at the blue face, Ling Mu nodded: "Ling Lin and I thought that in the future, we would take him to play......"
Old man Jin laughed: "Then I really want to ask you for it from now on!" ”
At this time, Xiao Longsheng on the wooden bed had already finished drinking the milk bottle, his eyes seemed to glance at Ling Mu, and then forced his eyes to continue to sleep.
- What kind of brother and uncle, the relationship between these people is really strange......
