Looking through the gap in the crowd, I saw a petite figure curled up on the ground, dressed in tattered clothes, dirty, no different from a beggar, the only difference was that she did not pick up the money that those well-wishers gave her, as if she would rather starve to death than be so charity and pity from others.

King Zhao's heart suddenly pinched, on that petite figure, he seemed to see his former self, the key is that he couldn't be more familiar with this figure.

King Zhao took a deep breath, put the green bamboo on his body aside, quickly ran to the dirty girl's side, and squatted down without hesitation, staring at the girl's pale little face with his eyes.

The girl who was still alive seemed to notice that there was a strange gaze on her, and immediately opened her tired eyes weakly, and when he saw the young man, he was stunned for a while, his face kept changing, and after a long time, the girl sneered: It turned out to be you, Zhao Bawang, are you here to see my joke?

Ye Xi girl, look at me like this, do you look like a person who is qualified to see other people's jokes? King Zhao suddenly grinned, and there was a bit of self-deprecation in that smile.

Yes, at least my jokes, you are entitled to see them, the girl struggled to sit up with all the strength she had left, all eyes were focused on the boy's face, and said with great seriousness, but you can still remember my name, thank you so much.

Thank you? King Zhao was a little puzzled, he then asked, do you still have the strength to walk? Do you want me to carry it?

The girl asked, her eyes widening;

Of course it's with me, do you want me to die and not save me, the young man said confidently;

Zhao Bawang, you have a pretty good memory, four or five years have passed, you can still write down this sentence word for word, it is a reading embryo, the girl was stunned for a moment, and showed a smile, and the young girl was talking like an old friend.

The boy rolled his eyes, then sighed and said, "I can't do anything with books, otherwise I would be the future pillar of the country."

The girl was stunned in place, as if she had seen something incredible, and King Zhao was also stunned, "What are you in a daze, you want me to help you up?"

The girl didn't move, "What if you carry me?"

I could be mistaken as a delinquent teenager or even beaten to death as a trafficker.

It is also said, who will be fed and carry a beggar home, if it is not said, it is strange, the girl sneered;

Can you speak well, don't you know what kind of person my King Zhao is?

Do people get better, I don't care about angry teenagers and girls, and at a young age, she seems to have seen through the world.

I don't know about others, but I Zhao Wang will not change, the young man took a deep breath and said with a determined face;

The girl was silent.

The boy coughed, stared at the girl, and said, "How did you become such a mother-in-law now? ”

The girl remained silent.

King Zhao said helplessly, it's not that I don't want to see you these years, but I don't have the face to go, there have been several times, I stood opposite the orphanage, I didn't have the courage to go in to find you, I thought to myself, no matter how bad the orphanage is, at least two meals a day is safe, and there is rice to eat, all month long, you can taste the meat once or twice, it is much better than me outside, besides, when I left, but I let go of the cruel words before leaving, you see my down-and-out appearance, if the woman sees it, Maybe you're going to use me as a negative teaching material, but when the time comes, will you be able to bear it?

The girl stared at the boy as if she wanted to see something in the boy's face, until the boy said the last word, and the beggar girl sneered: Why can't I bear it?

The young man said with a dark face: Anyway, if that woman scolds you, I will definitely not be able to bear it, and I will beat her.

Seeing that the girl didn't react at all, King Zhao squatted on the ground, scratching his head with both hands, and said with a blank face: Do you want me to forcibly resist you away?

Zhao Bawang, do you plan to raise me so that I can be your daughter-in-law? The girl suddenly narrowed her eyes and her voice was cold, and she asked;

The boy was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.

Haha, you really have this thief's heart, but your vision is really good, the girl gasped and grinned;

"Virtue!" said the young man, giving her a blank look, and said angrily, "Come, come, I will help you up."

With the support of the young man, the weak girl slowly stood up, as for the crumpled renminbi on the ground, she didn't use her eyes to look at it since the beginning, but she remembered a lot of backs in her heart, and maybe she wouldn't forget it until she died.

Teenagers don't take it to heart, and when they're young, who doesn't have a little self-esteem?

The boy wanted to squat down and walk with the girl on his back, but the angry girl just smiled, as if she was really worried that the boy would be treated as a human trafficker by the people around her, so she shook her head and refused, meaning that she could still walk.

The boy didn't insist, leading the way in front of the head, the boy in front deliberately slowed down, and the girl in the back desperately wanted to go faster.

This...... Bamboo...... When she came to the four green bamboos, the girl was stunned, because the four green bamboos were very thick, and they were about 100 catties to say the least, and the young man's thin body was ...... Can you afford it?

The boy didn't notice the girl's strange expression, nodded, and said proudly, "How is it?

Your Zhao Bawang's vision is naturally good, the girl secretly took a deep breath, and there was an inexplicable pain in her heart, this pain was difficult to describe, but it was heartbreaking.

The young man set up the green bamboo and walked in front to lead the way, the girl walked beside him, falling behind the young man a step or two, at this moment there were crystal tears in her eyes, it should be afraid of being seen by the young man, she hurriedly wiped it away, and there was a reluctant smile on her pale face.

Along the way, King Zhao asked a few words from time to time about the girl's life in the orphanage, and at the same time, the girl would also ask him how he had come over the years.

Within a few minutes, the two of them came to the very dilapidated courtyard, and before they entered the door, King Zhao shouted loudly: "Old man, you hurry up and get away, you are not responsible for crashing to death."

The old man had just come out of the house at this moment, holding a dry tobacco stick in his hand, and when he heard this, he immediately scolded with a dark face: "Rabbit cub, you are blind, I am still in the house, if you have the ability, you can knock over this wall first, and then I will sit in the house and wait for you to come and die."

Old man, the wall of this courtyard is a little higher, I can't see the situation inside, I'm not worried that you suddenly jump out of a corner, what if you come to a bamboo piercing your heart? When the time comes, even if you don't want to say hello to the old man of Hades, the two ghost things of black and white impermanence will definitely not let you go, the young man strode into the garden, grinning;

The old man's face became darker, like a shrew scolding the sky and the earth on the street, scolding, you goddamn bastard, the little king in diving, .......

Just scolded two sentences, the old man suddenly found that there was a little girl in the yard, immediately stopped, stunned, he didn't expect that the boy went out for a trip, and actually came back with a little girl, what kind of trouble is this?

The weak and skinny girl was also stunned, and the young man and the old man greeted each other like this, but she could feel that the family affection between the old man and the young man surpassed that of flesh and blood.

The old man was stunned for a moment, turned his head and squinted at the young man, pointed at the girl with the dry tobacco stick in his hand and asked, "What is your daughter-in-law?"

King Zhao, who was just about to put the bamboo on the ground, stumbled, but fortunately it was one end of the green bamboo that hit the wall, so he didn't fall down, King Zhao turned his head and glared at the old man viciously, and roared angrily: "There are guests coming, you still don't go to cook?

Who knew that the old man actually stiffened his neck and said confidently: If it is a granddaughter-in-law, he will do it, not a granddaughter-in-law, it is cool there, and where to stay.

King Zhao, who had just put down the bamboo on his shoulder, felt a pain in his eggs and gritted his teeth, and said, "Can you afford a grandson?"

Aren't you?" the old man asked with a glaring eye, solemnly;

The young man was struck by lightning, and immediately jumped to his feet and shouted: Old ghost, I will tell you at the end, I am not your grandson, do you think that if you say this, I will get you a coffin, don't even think about it, that inferior coffin will cost more than a thousand.

The old man said very calmly, "With this girl as your daughter-in-law for free, you can buy me a good coffin with the money in the box."

"Grass...... That money is not ......" The young man wants to vomit blood, how old is he, then he will think of pooling money to marry a daughter-in-law.

Why? Aren't you satisfied with having this girl as your daughter-in-law in the future? You still want to get a concubine? The old man interrupted the young man's words and asked with squinted eyes;

I'm too lazy to tell you, in the future, the room inside will be given to her, I'll squeeze a room with you, King Zhao shook his hand and put the knife on the side, and immediately closed the coffin, which means that the girl will live here in the future.

Little calf, this house is yours?" the old man asked angrily;

Hehe, isn't that mine?" the young man smiled evilly;

, I'm not dead yet, the old man scolded angrily, then turned his head to look at the girl with a slightly red face, and after a pause, he muttered to himself...... It would be great if I could live for another ten years, and then I would be able to hold my great-grandchildren.

King Zhao's lungs hurt, this old man still wants to live for another ten years, what kind of daydreaming in the daytime, besides, if this old ghost lives for another ten years, doesn't this want his King Zhao's life.

Hello old man, the girl saw the old man's eyes looking at her, and immediately greeted her very politely.

I've always been very good, and I've been my granddaughter-in-law since then, and I've let that stupid boy do all the hard work and dirty work, and the old man can't stop laughing from ear to ear, and he can't talk anymore.

The girl glared at the young man viciously, which seemed to mean to say, Zhao Bawang, if you sing and harmonize with this old man, I will become your daughter-in-law, this wishful thinking is really good, and it is free, you are really good, this girl admires you.

The young man looked innocent, he was really wronged, who would have thought that this old guy would speak so unabashedly and dare to say anything, it would really cost people's lives.

Girl, hurry up and come into the house, grandpa, I'll help you get food, the old man is happy and enthusiastic.

Phew, the old immortal, before he said a word, he became someone's grandfather, do you want to be shameless? King Zhao scolded secretly, and at the same time stepped forward to help the girl into the house.

The hut is not big and very shabby, with an old iron stove in the middle, a bed next to it, and the bedding in it is all old things, and on the middle wall, in addition to a door on one side, there is a large wooden cabinet in the middle, which is inlaid in the wall, and there are pots and pans in it, and there is a slightly larger wooden table in front of the wooden cabinet, which is also full of things, and there are a lot of piles under the wall.

This old ghost is very poor, so he can only grieve you, King Zhao said to the girl;

The old man stopped doing it, but turned his head and asked dissatisfiedly, "Boy, how do you speak, if it weren't for the support of you, would I be so poor?"

If you say this, even Old Man Yang will not believe you, the young man pouted;

Old man, let me stir-fry! King Zhao glanced at the steaming heat on the wooden barrel of steamed rice, and immediately knew that the old man had already cooked the rice, and all he needed was to stir-fry.

Hehe, you kid is really on the road, you have to show more in the future, only in this way, the little girl can look at you, the old man smiled and said;

Old man, I'm his sister, dear, the girl feels that she can't be silent, if she is silent, it will be tantamount to her acquiescence, as the saying goes, girls should be reserved, she still knows.

What? Are you his sister? The old man looked suspicious.

Well, yes, I used to grow up in the same orphanage as him, and I had a blood test, and it was definitely close, the girl said in a matter-of-fact manner;

Seeing the girl's unpretentious expression, the old man was struck by lightning, and immediately cried and said, "My coffin book."

Only King Zhao was stunned, and there was a black line on his forehead, this girl was smaller than him, and she was ashamed to say that she was his sister and her own, who would believe it? The dead old man acted very well in this play, and he could be an actor.

............

After eating, King Zhao boiled a little warm water for Ye Xi, let her go to the inner room to wash, and at the same time put one of his three sets of clothes on her.

Taking advantage of the girl's bathing time, King Zhao washed the girl's shabby coat and dried it in a sunny place, just summer, the sun is called a hot, it doesn't take an hour or two, the coat is dried, and the clothes that are changed later, the girl insists on washing it herself, and King Zhao didn't say anything.

Next, the boy and the girl cleaned up the room inside, and finally, King Zhao decided to make a wall from the middle and divide the room into two, anyway, there were just two doors to enter and exit, and it was enough to put two beds.

Ye Xi, when the time comes, I will make the space on the right a little bigger, and this bed will be given to you, and I will take you to buy a few clothes tomorrow, and you can hang it up when the time comes, King Zhao said while moving the big bed that can squeeze two or three people;

No, you can buy me a change of clothes when the time comes, and we will be half of us in this room, the girl shook her head;

You don't have to worry, I have enough of the old man's coffin, or buy a high-quality coffin, and I still have a lot of money to spare, it's okay to buy you two or three sets of clothes, let's not buy the very expensive kind, just go to the department store stall to pick a few sets, or a few dollars, Zhao Wang said;

I'm a boy, it doesn't matter if the room is bigger or smaller, just be able to sleep, but you're different, you're a girl, the room is bigger, it's convenient to change clothes, take a bath or something, Zhao Wang said;

King Zhao, thank you, the girl put down the things in her hand, stared at the young man, and said seriously;

When we were in the orphanage, we said that we don't need anyone to thank anyone between the two of us, King Zhao raised his head, looked at the girl and smiled;

"Yes!"

The girl snorted, and immediately turned her head, and tears fell quietly from her pupils, slowly wetting her cheeks.

I'm going to the mountains in a moment, are you going?" King Zhao pulled the corners of his mouth and asked;

"Go!"

The girl turned her head and smiled, very sure;

Well, the wall in the middle, I'm going to use bamboo strips to make it, so it doesn't take up space, but it needs more than ten green bamboos.
