Just when Lin Xiaoling was stunned, someone suddenly came outside the door.

It's an old man in rags.

Shattered clothes, sticks picked up by the roadside, and carrying an old white cloth bag.

However, it is very steady to walk.

"Is the boss there?" The old man grinned, revealing a mouthful of loose teeth.

Hey, seeing someone more pitiful than himself, Xiao Ling felt sad for a while.

"Old man, I am." Xiao Ling stood up.

"I'm looking for your dad." Well?

"Old man, my dad is not here, you look for me the same."

The old man glanced at Xiao Ling carefully.

"Little girl, it's really not good to look for you. I have something to do, and only your dad can help me do it. ”

Does this old man know my father?

"Little girl, I want your father to help with this, boys are okay, girls are not suitable." The old man said it very seriously.

That's patriarchy, isn't it?

Is there anything we girls can't do?

Cut~

"Grandpa, my dad hasn't been home lately. I'm in charge of everything in this hotel. ”

"What's the matter with you, it's the same as I said."

"What I want to do, ordinary people can't do."

The old man looked mysterious.

Seeing this, Zhao Wen Carmen went to Carmen's shop.

Only the two of them were left in the hall.

That's where I can speak.

Now the workers have moved their positions to the courtyard, and the kitchen is full of people.

Xiao Ling let the old man onto the sofa.

Poured him a cup of tea.

The old man asked again.

"You say, your father is not at home, is he going away?"

"Sort of."

"And when will he be back?"

"I don't know."

"Then I'll wait for him to come back."

The old man added, "It's just that I don't know if I can wait until the day your father comes back." ”

After saying the last word, the old man sighed long.

"Old man, what you are talking about, is it about yin and yang?"

In this area, people are in charge of the traffic between the yin and the yang, and they are all called yin and yang.

What kind of fortune telling, communicating with the souls of ancestors, choosing a day to change names, etc., are all of them.

Originally, there were a few people in every village.

Later, they all slowly walked out.

Dad used to do both, but it was because he couldn't look at it.

Some of the villagers don't understand and cheat money indiscriminately.

Some of the people who want to see are so pitiful that they don't even have the money to be cheated of.

So, what Dad showed them was free.

"Think of it as a virtue." Dad explained this to Mom at the time.

It's just, what about the accumulation of virtue?

Why did Dad himself disappear after so many years?

Xiao Ling didn't understand.

Now, what she wants to figure out is the old man in front of her.

Is there anything he can do that he can help with?

When I took over my father's class, I should have carried everything on my shoulders.

"Little girl, do you know this?"

The old man was a little skeptical.

"Grandpa, Dad taught me some before."

"Now my dad isn't here, and you're in a hurry."

"Look, why don't I try to help you first?"

The old man thought about it, too.

I don't know how long I can survive this body.

Wouldn't it be better if this little girl really had her father's ability?

As the old saying goes, heroes come out of teenagers.

Isn't this girl the same?

So, the old man opened his mouth and said.

Originally.

The old man has been haunted by a dream for more than half a year.

In the dream, his wife, who had been deceased for many years, kept saying that his second daughter, who died that year, had been looking for trouble with her.

Yes, in the world over there, his wife was bullied by his own daughter.

He's here, but he can't do anything.

I can only do it in a hurry.

"Old man, how many children do you have?" It's a bit presumptuous, but it's worth asking.

"That's five."

Talking to the elderly is more emotional.

Every word is uttered with a sigh.

That old feeling, hey.

"The first four are all daughters. Back then, I just wanted to give birth to a son, so that I could pass on the incense. ”

"But, the family is poor."

"When the second girl was very young, she loved to get sick."

"At that time, the third girl was already born, and the fourth was in the old woman's belly."

"I'm the only one working in the family. There are also old people on it. ”

"I didn't have much work to make money back then."

"It's a problem to afford to feed the whole family. In the countryside, it's okay to eat nothing more than a little coarse. ”

"I just don't have any money."

"You say you don't have money to buy clothes. You can wear other people's old clothes, and we're not afraid of being embarrassed, right? ”

"If you don't have money to buy medicine, it's a big problem."

"There's nowhere to borrow it, it's the same situation for everyone."

"Poor second girl, just so sick and feverish."

"In the end, he died of fever."

When the old man saw someone talking with him, he couldn't close the conversation as soon as he opened it.

Tears as he spoke.

Xiao Ling couldn't help it.

"Later, the fifth one was finally a son."

"Maybe it's my life."

"When this son was born, there were some problems."

"It's not good here." The old man pointed to his head.

"I can't read, I can't work, and I have problems speaking."

"I can only keep it all the time."

"As for my wife, I gave birth to five, and my body is broken."

"Within a few years, I went."

"The three daughters are all married."

"In the past few years, I have followed my husband's family and gone out to work."

"I'm the only one left in the house, and that stupid son."

"I can't stay here too long, I'll have to go back and get him food later."

Ay!

This......

"I just want to meet my wife and my second girl."

"I want to tell the second girl, we really can't help it, it's not that we didn't save her at that time."

"Now that I think about it, I really, regret it."

"Look, it's good to have a few daughters."

"Hey!"

"You said you could only see your wife in a dream, right?"

Dreams.

Perhaps this is the least tiring situation for the elderly.

Well.

"Yes, I used to dream about my wife occasionally, but now I have it every day."

"In my dreams, she cried, and I couldn't even speak."

The old man had tears on his face.

Xiao Ling took out two pieces of paper and handed them to the old man.

"Grandpa, wipe your face first."

With that, Xiao Ling got up.

I went to the fifth aunt's house to fry two dishes, considering that they should not have eaten meat for a long time, so I specially added a meat dish.

Go to the second floor again and look for the reporter's brother.

Yes, again I asked him to borrow a car.

Send this poor old man home first.

Tonight, let's help this old man first.

After arranging a meal, the old man reluctantly got into the car.

"Grandpa, rest early in the evening." Xiao Ling waved his hand.

"Take care of yourself."

He also has a disabled son to take care of.

Ay.

After sending the old man away, Xiao Ling sat on the sofa, stunned.

Why is it that everyone has such a pitiful time?

Why can't I see my father once in my dreams?

I don't know if my mother will dream of my father.

I'm in a daze.

At the door, another man broke in.
