Chapter 162: Old Days
When Liang Tian was young, his body was not good, and he was the youngest among his brothers and sisters, and he looked even more thin and bullied. Liang Tian, who was ten years old, was as thin as a seven or eight-year-old child, and only reached the waist of an adult in the crowd.
At that time, the teacher invited by the family was still there, he was a pedantic old man, his eyes were not very good, and he was often teased by the noisy eldest sister Liang Xiyue and the pampered Zhou Ling'er.
The brother and sister were bored in a few classes, so they often took advantage of Mr. Teaching's lunch break to sneak out of Mr. Teacher's house and go to the city to play.
At that time, Liang Xiyue was just the age of marriage, and she got the position of her husband's family from the family members, so she took her younger siblings to take a look around there. On the way, several people were greedy for fun, and gradually forgot their original intentions, and the more they walked, the more they deviated from the road to Wang's house.
Inadvertently, a few people have been staying outside for an afternoon, and it has already been the time for the family to pick them up, and several people are also a little panicked, after all, this matter is only known to Mr. Teach, not a big deal, if you let the family know, it is indispensable for a person to receive a family law.
Liang Xiyue walked back with a few people, but the more she walked, the faster it got darker, and she saw the smoke rising from the cooking smoke in the surrounding houses, and the stomachs of several people became more and more hungry.
Although Liang Tian was the youngest child, he didn't dare to be coquettish in front of a group of people, so he could only pull the sleeve of the second sister from time to time, and said aggrievedly, "Second sister, I'm hungry." ”
"Bear with me, we'll be able to eat when we get home." Liang Yue was also a little unbearable in her heart, the amount of food in the little sister has always been not small, and it should be even more uncomfortable to walk for an afternoon, but there is no place to sell baked cakes, where to find something to eat.
The two sisters of their own family were considerate of Xiyue, and followed all the way back, but the brothers and sisters in the next room were not so obedient, and when Zhou Linger also felt hungry, the group began to mess up.
Huai'an is a person who can endure, and he also persuaded Ling'er to endure it again, but he couldn't bear to see Ling'er hungry, so under Ling'er's instigation, he quietly led people to the alley halfway to find some food to eat.
Liang Tian was the first to find out about this matter, pulled the sleeve of the second sister, and whispered, "Second sister, Brother Huai'an, they went over there." ”
"Sister, they're gone." Liang Yue heard Xiaomei speak, only to find that there were only three of her own family left in the team of five people, so she hurriedly said to Xiyue.
Liang Xiyue originally wanted to go back, but she was a little unhappy to be interrupted inexplicably, frowned, turned around and said, "It's really worrying!" I wouldn't have taken them with me if I had known. Then he took two steps forward before reluctantly turning back and saying, "Yueni, you go and call them back, my little sister and I are waiting for you here." ”
Liang Yue didn't want to go, but she had to follow Liang Xiyue's wishes, after all, it was impossible to ask her little sister to find someone, so she told Liang Tian not to leave here, and then follow the direction of the two of them.
After a cup of tea, no one came back, and Liang Xiyue became even more impatient, thinking that these three people must have gone to steal food. Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Liang Xiyue couldn't help but tremble, and said to Liang Tian in her heart, "You wait here, I'll call them back." ”
Liang Tian nodded lightly, sent the eldest sister away a little timidly, and began to wait alone on the side of the road. On the road near night, there are often some passers-by, young and old, of all shapes.
At first, I could stand it, kicking the stone at my feet, and walking back and forth a few steps, it was not difficult to be a child waiting for someone to come back. But the deeper the night gets, the more uneasy Liang Tian's heart becomes, and then looking at the passers-by who come and go, he feels that the night is terrible, and slowly, he is shrouded in this kind of fear.
Liang Tian thought to himself, as long as he walked a little ahead, there should be some bright places waiting for them, so he really took a few steps forward. But the more he walked, the more uneasy Liang Tian's heart became, and the more his advancing legs couldn't stop, he walked farther and farther, and walked faster and faster.
It's just that the road is too far, less than half a distance, and Liang Tian's remaining strength has been exhausted. The night was darker, and the sound of insects from far and near was even worse, Liang Tian dragged his two unconscious legs, and continued to walk forward, his stomach became more and more hungry, and the occasional smell of vegetables made Liang Tian even more uncomfortable.
Liang Tian suddenly felt very aggrieved, this Wang family didn't want to go by himself, and he had already said that he wanted to go back, but they still said that they wanted to go, and left themselves there alone and waited for them to come back.
Last time, last time, every time they let themselves wait there, in the end they waited for a beating, and the mother-in-law of the family took herself back, and she couldn't help but say that it was a beating, as if all the ideas were made by themselves, and she was the bad boy who didn't listen to people.
Liang Tian didn't wait this time, but he couldn't go back, and the way home would always be so far. Although Liang Tian hated these things in his heart, the tears still flowed down uncontrollably, falling as he walked, and even his voice did not restrain after a long time, he wiped his tears all the way and walked back all the way, and he didn't care about anyone he met on the way.
Once people don't care about it, they are prone to encounter some bad things, and Liang Tian, who was crying while walking on the road, was no exception, and he bumped into a black shadow head-on, knocking Liang Tian back a few steps. The person who was hit was not an adult, just a half-old child, but he was taller than Liang Tian, and when he saw that some people were hit, he hurriedly came over to help him, for fear that this skinny child would fall somewhere.
"Are you alright?" A somewhat immature voice asked.
Liang Tian was already very aggrieved, and when he encountered such a thing, he was trampled on by that person in a panic, and he was even more unhappy, and said angrily, "You stepped on me!" As he spoke, he squatted down again, rubbing his already painful feet through his cloth boots.
The man also panicked, and quickly said, "Didn't I do it on purpose, was the injury serious?" As he spoke, he leaned over and took a look.
Liang Tian is also a weirdo, except for the second sister, anyone who gets close will feel flustered, seeing that person came over to see, he hurriedly stepped back, but when he looked up, he bumped into those bright eyes of autumn water, and his heartbeat immediately stopped for half a beat.
"Hmmm..." At a young age, he couldn't tell what was beautiful or ugly, but he felt that these eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky, Liang Tian quietly stepped back a little, covered the throbbing in his heart, and whispered, "There is still a little pain." ”
The man also squatted down, and he didn't know where he stepped on it in the black light, and then glanced at Liang Tian again, calmed down, and said, "Where is your home?" I'll carry you back. ”
"No!" Liang Tian hurriedly replied, it would be a preferential treatment to let him get close, and then he would go back, even if it was Mr. Teaching, it was difficult to explain clearly, there was a difference between men and women.
Liang Tian glanced around and found that there were stairs for him to sit on, so he said, "You go, I'll go over there and rest for a while and go back." ”
The man was a little reluctant, his face was full of worry about this little man who looked like he was only seven or eight years old, and when he saw the person limping towards that side, he quickly followed, and said, "Then I'll wait until you can go, it's so late, you are alone, and I don't want to go." ”
Maybe good-looking people are naturally trusted, and they have only met for the first time, but Liang Tian didn't think about guarding against him at all, and let him sit down beside him.
Goo, but as soon as he sat down, Liang Tian's stomach began to scream unobediently, one after another, and he could still endure it at home. But this was in front of the stranger, and he kept cooing, and he felt embarrassed, and he pulled the clothes on his stomach, trying to hide his voice, and supported himself to get up and go back.
I didn't want to, but I handed over half a baked cake and whispered, "If you don't dislike it, eat it." ”
It was at this time that Liang Tian swallowed his saliva, glanced at the man timidly, and then stretched out his hand to take the baked cake, hesitating whether to eat it or not.
"Don't worry, this is what I left over from my grandfather's grave, and you see I can eat it too." The man said and began to eat, but it was an exaggerated meal, as if he had been hungry for many meals.
Seeing that people were happy, Liang Tian couldn't twist anymore, and he also pulled out some cake crumbs and stuffed them into his mouth, tasting the taste of food, before finally taking off his guard and eating it in a big gulp.
"It's so late, why are you on the road alone?" Perhaps thinking that the two were too silent, the man began to talk to himself.
Although it was a mistake, Liang Tian felt that he should look better after receiving the grace of this person's meal, so he replied, "My sisters and I went to a relative's house and lost our way home. ”
"What about your sister? How can I leave you here alone. ”
"I don't know, maybe I'll go back." Liang Tian didn't want to delve into the people who entered the alley one by one, and they all disappeared in the end, anyway, they didn't go back on a detour as usual, and they happened to forget about themselves.
Although half of the baked cake was not full, the strength finally returned a little, and after enough rest, Liang Tian patted the dust on his buttocks, got up and said, "I'm going back, thank you for the baked cakes, but I don't have any silver on me now." ”
"It's okay, it's just half a baked cake, where is your home? I'll send you back, it's so late, and you're not safe alone. ”
I don't know why, Liang Tian always felt that this person was very kind, even more kind than the second sister who took care of him and grew up, so he always wanted to see him again, and glanced at himself, only the jade tied with the red rope on his hand was valuable.
Almost without hesitation, Liang Tian untied the red rope in his hand, put it in his hand, and said, "You take this, wait for me here tomorrow, I will treat you to something delicious." ”
Before anyone could excuse himself, a pair of big hands suddenly took the red rope back from the child's hand, pushed the child away again, and broke a sentence, "Where did the kid come from, looking at the little girl alone, did you come to cheat money!" ”
Liang Tian turned around and saw the man, who turned out to be the mother-in-law of the family, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I gave it to him, he didn't lie to me, you give it to him." After speaking, he went to pull the red rope on the mother-in-law's hand.
As if she hadn't heard, the mother-in-law hugged Liang Tian in her hand and said, "Third girl, let's go back, Madame is angry at home." ”
Liang Tian's strength couldn't withstand the mother-in-law who did rough work all the year round, and after struggling, she had to let her carry her back, looking at the depressed appearance of the person behind her, and shouted, "I'll wait for you here tomorrow." ”
