Chapter 172: Leaving the Old Man Behind (I)
Xu was because of the shower just now, and his gray beard was obviously not as stained and dirty as before. After tidying up, it's much more pleasing to the eye now. The gray strands of hair were erected with strips of black cloth, and now there was no hair covering his face, and the scars on his face were visible. It's just that in the face of everyone's curious eyes, he didn't dodge, but seemed very calm.
Perhaps, this is another man with a story.
"My surname is Su, you can call me Old Man Su, or Old Man Su." Taking a sip of tea, the old man said lightly, then he looked at Fang Xiaoxiao and asked softly, "I don't know the girl's surname?" ”
Fang Xiaoxiao sat on the main seat with a calm expression. Liu Qi'er and Sanya stood on either side of her, while Liu Dong sat opposite Old Man Su.
"My name is Fang Xiaoxiao, and I am the eldest sister of several of them. This is Sanya, this is Liu Que'er, and the young man opposite you is Liu Dong. ”
When he heard the old man introduce his surname Su, Fang Xiaoxiao was a little disappointed. Originally, she smelled the faint fragrance of flowers, and she thought that this old man was the miracle doctor she said. But now, she felt that she might be disappointed. This old man shouldn't be.
Especially that face, although the original face of his close relatives looks like, but now looking at this scarred face, it really doesn't look like the vague shadow in his memory!
Although he said this with the old man's face as usual, many thoughts flashed in Fang Xiaoxiao's heart in an instant. It's just that these thoughts are well hidden by her, so no one here has found out.
Of course, there is also Old Man Su who has the same thoughts as her. At this moment, Old Man Su's heart was also very uneasy. He was dragged by others, so he deliberately fainted at the gate of the Fang Mansion. As for what the other people in the family are called, it has nothing to do with him, he just needs to remember this woman named Fang Xiaoxiao, this name must be deeply remembered in his mind.
It's just that what makes him a little nervous is that he doesn't know what that person is going to do himself?
Liu Dong had been observing the expression of the old man Su on the other side. When he found that he was sometimes sad, sometimes hesitant, sometimes empty, and sometimes overwhelmed, he deliberately knocked on the table on the side, stared at him with his eyes and asked, "Do you think you are strange old man?" Aren't you curious about your sudden appearance in someone else's house right now? Don't you want to know how you got to our house? When you wake up and find yourself in an unfamiliar environment, facing a large group of strange people, don't you have a word to say? Is your mental quality really that good? Or are you pretending? ”
"Stinky boy! What do you think my old man is going to pretend? Besides, what's the point of pretending to be this? Old man Su didn't seem to be particularly emotional, and said a little coyly, "Old man, I like to drink, I love to drink, and I often get drunk and pour it casually, and the next day I wake up and can't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, and it's common to be confused." What's so surprising about this? Anyway, this time I still found a family to sleep on your kang, so that I wouldn't wake up like last time and find myself lying on a stone in the river, but fortunately my life was great, and the water almost didn't wash me away, otherwise, I would have become the water ghost who asked for my life! ”
Simple and crude.
The old man's meaning is self-evident. Not to mention lying on your kang this time, I've even experienced such a thing as almost dying when I woke up, do you think this little thing can surprise me? I've long since developed the ability to deal with things without being shocked by honor and disgrace.
After all, he is a child, although Liu Dong is tall, he still tends to be a child in his bones. As soon as he heard that Old Man Su had such skills, he was naturally admired. He looked at Old Man Su excitedly, and said with some expectation, "Old man, do you need a disciple for this unique skill?" What do you think of me as a person? Why don't you take me as an apprentice? I'll carry you forward! ”
Poof!
With a chuckle, Liu Dong looked back, it turned out that Liu Qi'er couldn't hold back for a while, and was covering her mouth and snickering at the moment.
"Liu Que'er, what are you laughing at? What's so funny? ”
"Liu Dong, I think you're itchy now, right?" Liu Queer didn't smile, and pretended to be a gesture, "I warn you, don't you hurry up and chop wood, believe it or not, I'll smoke you to death?" ”
"Sister Xiaoxiao, can you clean up this girl Liu Que'er? She's been exploiting me all the time these days, and I'm about to be exploited to death by her! If this continues, what will I live? Liu Dong wailed, making a very aggrieved look and complaining.
It's just a pity that Fang Xiaoxiao didn't pay attention to him. Instead, he continued to speak to Old Man Su, "Originally, we didn't know about the old man, and besides, you didn't wake up, and we didn't know what to do next." Now that you're sober and don't know what you're going to do next, do you need us to send you home if you go home? ”
Hearing this, Old Man Su's eyes flashed. Then he lowered his head and gently hid the fog from his eyes. Then he picked up the tea in front of him and drank it all. I don't know why, Liu **ran felt that the atmosphere at this moment was so depressing. After a while, Old Man Su shook his head leisurely and said, "No need." I don't have a home, old man. ”
"How can you not have a home?" Liu Dong was curious, "You should have children at such an age, right?" What about your children? You ......"
"Ahem......"
Before Liu Dong's words were finished, Liu Qi'er coughed a few times, which meant that he stopped the topic. How can anyone not have a home? Unless something happened, according to Old Man Su's current expression, these things made him very sad. Since it makes him very sad, what is Liu Dong, a stinky boy, asking? It has aroused the sadness of others!
"Old man, I am a walking corpse, I call the world home on weekdays, and I have no relatives and no home. It doesn't matter where I go, but one thing, I'm never a human being. It has always been owed to me, and I never owe it to others. Since you have saved me kindly, then I will stay at your house for a month, and I will leave when I have repaid the favor. ”
Old man Su said with a calm face, but Liu Que'er had a disgusted expression in his ears. She had never seen anyone so thick-skinned. I don't think there's anything wrong with listening to the first half of the sentence, but the second half of the sentence is a big problem! Obviously, I want to eat and drink, so let's just say it! It's enough to say that it's so high-sounding!
