Chapter 119: Old Man

Tang Nian looked in the direction of the voice and saw that he was still holding an old man with a beard and gray hair.

Although the old man was rickety, he had a slight smile on his face, and his eyes were narrowed into a slit.

She naturally remembered this old man, on weekdays, as long as he went to buy noodles, he would go to the east of the city to find this old man, and he always sat there selling the small things on his stall.

Seeing him coming, Tang Nian stepped forward to help his grandfather, and asked happily, "Grandpa, are you still happy what you ate just now?" ”

The old man rolled his eyes slightly, looked at Tang Nian and said with a smile: "Naturally happy, the old man never thought that Miss Tang would have such exquisite craftsmanship, which simply amazed the old man." ”

Tang Nian listened to the praise of the old man, and not only a few crimsons rose on his cheeks.

Then he looked elsewhere with a smile, and when he saw Fu Si following behind Yin Mo who was standing beside Tang Nian, his face changed suddenly.

Fu Si's eyes lowered slightly and the old man's gaze turned to his heart, and the original memories also appeared in his mind one by one.

He remembered that when he took Lu Shuixiu to the boat that had been prepared at the east end of the village that day, the old man seemed to raise his head from time to time, and always looked in their direction.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a slight panic on his face, if the old man debunked this matter in front of Tang Nian, how would he explain?

But the old man only stared at him slightly, turned his head again, and talked to Tang Nian with a smile.

Seeing that he didn't want to expose the matter, Fu Si's heart that was hanging high finally fell back into his heart.

Yin Mo looked sideways, seeing that Fu Si was a little different from usual, his eyes were slightly surprised.

Fu Si only gave him a faint look, Yin Mo's heart instantly understood, and then he turned his eyes and watched the old man's every move.

For some reason, he always felt that this old man was a little strange beyond words.

When the old man and Tang Nian walked to the other side, Yin Mo couldn't help but wave his fan, fanned it a few times, and then asked Gu Lin, "Do you know that old man?" ”

Gu Lin rolled his eyes and stared at Yin Mo with dark eyes, his eyes were slightly deep, and he didn't know what he meant by this.

Yin Mo naturally understood, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Do you think this old man looks familiar?"

Although the old man had gray hair, gray beard, and even his eyebrows were white, he was so long that he fell to the sides of his cheeks.

Not only that, but the wrinkles on the face are like hills and ravines.

He was already skinny, and his messy hair blocked half of his face, making it even more difficult to see his original face.

But even so, Yin Mo still felt that something was wrong.

Gu Lin thought carefully for a moment, this old man should have come after he moved to the village.

But he couldn't remember exactly when it was, there were so many people in the village, and he and Mrs. Gu had always disliked socializing, so naturally they wouldn't know so much about the affairs of the village.

"I don't know." After that, Gu Lin stopped standing still and continued to talk to him, and walked in the direction of An Bao and Ah Hao.

Yin Mo lowered his eyes slightly, looking like Fu Si whispered, "What do you think?" ”

Fu Si put his voice very soft, and approached Yin Mo's ear and said, "I always feel that this old man is a little familiar, but I can't remember it for a while. ”

After a pause, seeing the deep confusion on his master's face, Fu Si couldn't help but speak again: "Otherwise, I will take someone to check his origin." ”

Yin Mo nodded slightly, and he agreed to him.

His eyes kept locked on the old man who was talking to Tang Nian, thoughtfully.

His curly eyelashes trembled slightly, and he suddenly spoke to Fu Si again, "Be careful." ”

No matter how harmless and weak this old man looks on the surface, he always feels that the origin of this old man is definitely not simple.

Perhaps because he fled with his father since he was a child, he learned to read words and emotions at a young age.

During that time, my father was very decadent, and he had no choice, and he couldn't let himself go hungry, so he had to go out with the little change to buy some ingredients and come back to cook them himself.

But that period was an extraordinary period, and all towns and cities posted their notices, and there was no way, Yin Mo could only put the ashes on his face at that time, and he could only go out to buy some things when he was dressed in tatters.

Not only that, but he had to be more and more cautious, as long as he saw that something was wrong with any adult touching his eyes, he had to flee immediately, and if he was caught, it would be miserable.

Fu Si nodded, and then immediately set about it.

And Yin Mo's favorite is also him, as long as he tells something, he will find out as soon as possible.

"Everyone, eat and drink and have fun today!" Tang Nian shuttled between the crowds, his eyebrows and eyes were full of joy, and he was very comfortable.

Many villagers gave her many reasonable opinions, and she accepted them one by one.

After a while, the villagers gradually went out of the courtyard of the Gu family and went back in the direction of their own home.

Tang Nian greeted them at the door, welcomed them to the store from which they came, and took care of the business.

Naturally, the villagers all agreed.

Seeing that the people were about to leave, Tang Nian said a lot of words, and became a little dry, and when he was about to turn his head and go home, he found a small child squatting not far from her.

She frowned slightly, then thought for a moment, slowly stepped forward and squatted down, raised her hand and touched the child's messy hair and asked, "Whose child are you?" Why is it that you squat here alone and don't go home with your parents? ”

The child felt the touch coming from his head, and he shrank back in fear, and after shrinking for a while, he raised his head tremblingly and glanced at Tang Nian.

Tang Nian couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart when he saw him with such a frightened appearance.

After thinking about it carefully, I didn't seem to see this kid come in in the courtyard.

Could it be that you got lost around here?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Tang Nian was patient again, and asked softly again, "What's wrong?" What happened? Is it okay for you to tell your sister? If you and your parents get lost, my sister will help you find them. ”

When the child heard the words "Daddy", a few tears hung on the corners of his eyes.

Seeing him like this, Tang Nian probably had a number in his heart.

But the child was still young, and she didn't want to say it in front of him.

Just as she was thinking about what she should say next, she suddenly heard a "coo" cry in her ears.
