Qin Huai covered his mouth with horror in his eyes, looked at the photo in disbelief, and then looked at me.

I was a little depressed when I saw her expression, "You mean this uncle is like my father?" ”

Qin Huai shook his head desperately, "That drunkard!" That drunkard! ”

As soon as she said this, I quickly recalled the appearance of the drunkard, the big wide nose, the slitted eyes, the big buckteeth, and then looked at the photo carefully, isn't it the same style as this child!

It dawned on me, "We're here for the bandits?!" ”

At this time, the uncle walked in with a steaming copper kettle: "Alas, my son, I haven't seen him for months, and I don't know what work he does outside, every time he comes back to give me some money, he leaves." It's too big to keep. ”

Qin Huai tugged at my clothes and whispered to me, "Let's go first, it's too dangerous to stay here, if we run into his son, we'll be finished." ”

We originally wanted to be safe before we offered to spend the night here, but we stumbled into the drunkard's den, which might as well live in that three-story shabby shop, at least not to die.

I hurriedly asked, "Old man, will your son come back tonight?" ”

The uncle poured three cups of tea with difficulty, and the tea spilled on the table, "I don't know, he never told me in advance when he went home." ”

Before the words fell, a rough and familiar voice came in at the door!

"Daddy! I am back! ”

"Ouch, what's the matter, Gangzi is back!" The old man happily greeted him.

Gangzi walked into the house with crutches and teeth in ashes, and the moment he looked up and saw me and Qin Huai, the atmosphere froze to the freezing point.

"Gangzi, how did you do this leg!" The uncle took Gangzi's hand and looked at his leg carefully in distress.

And Gangzi just looked at us with a frown.

"Dad, who are they?" Gangzi asked coldly.

The old man hurriedly turned around and introduced: "They are guests, they have come to the village to do business, and this young man said that he wants to help me heal my back, he should be quite capable." ”

At this time, there happened to be an old man in the middle, and Gangzi and we had a great hatred and would not report it on the spot, so I quickly stepped forward and smiled slightly.

"Gangzi, huh? Hello, our name is Wu Yan, and this is my friend Qin Huai. We're here to see if there's anything you can do to cure your father's hunchback. ”

Gangzi gently let go of the old man's hand and walked in front of me on crutches, the resentful expression on his face covered with purple spots scared me Qin Huai back a step.

"Let's go, said in the courtyard."

Gangzi dropped a sentence, smiled at the old man and went out.

Qin Huai pulled me, and I patted the back of her hand: "It's okay, no matter how tiger things are in front of Dad, you have to put your claws away, don't worry, you just wait for me in the house, don't drink water." ”

I came to the courtyard and stood in front of Gangzi, he glared at me viciously, almost squeezing out the sentence from between his teeth, "Lao Tzu should have abolished you on the train!" ”

These words immediately lit me up, I nodded, and my tone became fierce, "Then in the yard, let's practice here, whoever dies will the grandson." ”

Gangzi was furious, if it weren't for the crutches, I was sure he would have pounced immediately, just when I was ready to fight, Gangzi exhaled.

"Can you cure my father?"

Gangzi turned his head and smiled innocently at the old man who was looking at him in the room.

I also looked back at the old man, and smiled as if I was intimacy with his son and I were going to kneel on the spot and bow down, "I can only say try my best, your father should have fallen under the spell." ”

"It's a curse again." Gangzi turned his head to take the cigarette from his pocket, but it was inconvenient for my two hands, so I took out my own cigarette and handed it to him along with the lighter.

Gangzi picked up one and took a sip, "You evil people are crooked and harm people all day long, scourge my mother and my father, and you harmed me again in the car yesterday, relying on your own evil arts to harm people everywhere, what a beast." ”

This scolding made me angry, and I pointed at his nose and said, "Why don't I harm you if you tease Qin Huai?" I've seen a scourge once, and if it weren't for your father's kindness, you thought you would be over with a broken hamstring?! Lao Tzu made all three of your legs broken. ”

This sentence obviously frightened Gangzi, it seemed that the two thighs were not as important to him as the one calf.

But it's not fun to quarrel, and in the end, Gangzi and I barely reached a consensus.

If I can cure his father's hunchback, then I will go out and divide left and right, and I will not nod my head when I see each other; But if it can't be cured, in the future, if you meet it in the forest, you will be beaten, and whoever dies will your grandson.

After entering the house, the atmosphere was harmonious for the time being.

Under my inquiry, the old man also told the story of his youth.

When the old man was young, he met a passing carpenter, and the carpenter said that he would repair the pillars and beams of the house for free, but after repairing, if the carpenter had anything in the house that he liked, he would ask the owner of the house to ask for it in return.

This encounter in this poor mountain village is comparable to the New Year, and everyone can't wait to bring the carpenter to their homes.

Besides, who can have valuable things at home in this place, what if you want a bed for the carpenter, cut a tree to make one, make a bed is simple, and the key to repairing the beams and pillars is not everyone who has this skill and strength.

The old man is no exception, after all, he was about to marry Gangzi's mother at that time, and the beams of this ancestral house have been cracked for many years and have not been taken care of, and now it is time to repair and get married.

That night it was finally the turn of the old man's house, and the carpenter's craftsmanship was really good, and he nailed the girder as strong as new in three times and five by two, and looked like the kind that would not collapse for one or two hundred years.

Before leaving, the carpenter wanted to ask the old man for a door tile in return, that is, the outermost tile on the eaves above the gate.

The old man was immediately unhappy, and said that if I give you the door tile, it will rain heavily in the future, and the rain will not flow straight up the gate, and the door will not be deformed and cracked after a long soak.

The carpenter was not angry, but nodded silently, then went back to the house and climbed on the beam, and then tinkered for a while, saying that he had added a few nails to the old man, which was more solid, and after the nails were finished, the carpenter left without saying anything.

At that time, no woman wanted to marry in the village, and they all wanted to get married, after all, if they were trapped in the village, they would definitely be poor and poor, and they would not be able to make a profit.

It was also for this reason that the old man became a lifelong event in his thirties and married a lame girl in the village.

More than a year later, the two gave birth to a boy, although he was healthy and white, white and fat, but extremely ugly, he was born with a big flat nose and small slitted eyes, and his hair was yellow and thin, and he couldn't grow half a finger in a year.

That is, on the night of Gangzi's birth, the old man's back was broken.

Early in the morning, the old man was woken up by a back pain, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that his nose was against his crotch, but at this time he couldn't sit up.

At this moment, Gangzi in the next room just shouted.

"Gangzi has gone to the ground!"
