Chapter 3 Roast Chicken
Uncle Shen asked the family to go to the young lady's room to get two clean clothes first.
The kid looked as if he was about the same size as Miss.
Shen Bo took the boy's hand, like a charitable uncle, and walked step by step to a side room in the West Courtyard.
"Kid, how old are you?"
In order to take care of the boy, Uncle Shen deliberately walked steadily and slowly, and now this picture looks like the scene of the grandfather and grandson strolling through the pavilion after the winter snow.
"I'm six years old." The boy looked up at the wrinkled, amiable uncle.
"Oh, it's only six."
"Uncle, I heard everyone call you Uncle Shen, can I also call you Uncle Shen?" The boy asked, a little timidly.
Since the misfortune at home last year, the little brother disappeared from the streets within two days, and he was not able to accompany him for a few days
It's been a year since the days of wandering and begging.
In these days, he has been chased by dogs, stoned by other children, and there was also a person who had been friends with him and secretly took something from home for him to eat, but was seen by the child's mother......
not only scolded him as a "wild baby", but also scolded the child, and he was no longer allowed to stay with the person who asked for food, otherwise he would break his hands.
The boy was wearing a piece of clothing from home, tattered, one more, one less, once hungry at night, ran to other doors to order food, and was scolded by others.
If the homeless man next to him has something to eat, he can give him two bites. However, those homeless people are also hungry and full.
One evening, it was already dark.
In the depths of an alley, he met a homeless man who ran to steal two roast chickens from someone's kitchen, and the boy whispered to him for a bite to eat......
"Uncle, can you give me a bite? I'm so hungry. ”
The homeless man lowered his head and swallowed the oily chicken thighs, and swallowed his mouth full of meat. The homeless man looked up at him and glared at him viciously: "Fuck off! I want to eat and steal it myself! ”
The boy was frightened by the vicious look in his eyes, and he hid in the abandoned hut next to the alley. This is where he lives.
"It smells so good." The boy's nose was hooked, but there were two roast chickens outside, he hadn't eaten for two days, how could he have begged for meat to eat?
Suddenly, a few housekeepers came running outside, and the homeless man seemed to know that they were looking for him, and without raising his head, he grabbed the oily roast chicken with two hands, and gnawed it into his stomach.
A punch and kick came to them, and they still had several large knives in their hands.
"Yo, you thief, the food is quite beautiful, let you eat! I told you to eat again! Several pairs of eyes in the dark were staring at him in the dark alley.
"Hmm!" The homeless man couldn't scream, those people kicked him on the back, and the back of the knife was on him, and he didn't look at it, he still stared at the uneaten roast chicken in his hand.
"Eat! Eat to death! ”
In the darkness of the night, the men were like black wild cats, staring at a mad mouse.
"It's not okay to give you what you can, we can't eat so well as our subordinates, you are so capable! What a capability! Eat! ”
The men surrounded the homeless man and kicked him incessantly, when suddenly, in the quiet of the night, a dog barked, and the sound of the dog broke the silence......
"Ahh Traitor! Bastard! Dare bite me! ”
The homeless man opened his teeth and bit down the arm of the man closest to him, like a dog. The man hit him on the head with his hand, but he still didn't let go, and he was like a mad dog.
"What are you doing! Are you waiting for me to be bitten to death? ”
It seems that the homeless man bit the leader of these people, and as soon as he gave the order, a person next to him immediately raised the knife in his hand and slashed at the homeless man's neck.
But then the homeless man relented, and he turned his head, and the knife fell on the homeless man's ear.
Syllable.
The homeless man's ears and the roast chicken in his hand fell to the ground......
The boy quickly covered his mouth, he was afraid that he would call out! He saw the homeless man's ears on the ground, and the blood that was pouring down his ears!
The boy suddenly forgot about hunger, he couldn't smell the roast chicken, he felt so disgusting, all the smell of blood came to his face.
The homeless man said, "Ah! Ah......h
The rat-staring, wildcat-like men were suddenly dumbfounded.
"Crazy! Who told you to go under the knife? Next to it is the yamen, do you want to die! ”
"I, I ......"
"What am I, idiot, go!"
There was another dog barking outside the alley.
"I'll fight with you!"
The homeless man picked up a piece of tile from the ground and slashed at the face of the man who had cut off his ear, and there was a bloody cut on the man's face.
"Damn, I don't know what to do!" The man he had bitten suddenly kicked the homeless man two meters away, and the homeless man slammed into the grass cart with a thud.
"Uh......" His mouth was wide open in pain, and his body suddenly stopped moving, a pair of dead fish-like eyes staring at the men.
"Brother! Elder brother! He seems to be dead......" The person next to him suddenly panicked, and the one next to him entered the main gate of the official mansion.
The man was suddenly stunned, his hands kept shaking, I don't know if it was because he was scared or because he had just been bitten.
"Brother, let's go! If you are seen for a while, you can't leave, let's go! ”
The man who cut off his ears pulled the "brother" in his mouth, staggered out of the alley, and after a while, the person was gone, and even the barking of dogs could not be heard.
People are gone...... The little boy was still squatting in the corner of the broken hut, not daring to move, he was very afraid, afraid of the dead man staring outside, afraid of the ear that fell on the ground, afraid of the blood stains everywhere outside, and even afraid of the sudden flash of the barking of the dog.
The boy wrapped himself in the rags he had picked up and shrunk into the nest of broken grass, was that the price of stealing?
He was so frightened that he forgot about hunger, hunger, hunger, and fell asleep in that haystack that no one could see.
The next morning, the little boy shrunk his neck as if it was going to rain, and the wind was blowing outside.
The boy ran out and saw the homeless man who died yesterday, and he didn't dare to approach it at all, he thought it was too terrible, and he wanted to live in a different place.
The boy ran back to the hut, picked up two pieces of clothing on the ground, and walked out, and as soon as he reached the door of the hut, he suddenly smelled a scent, as if it was nearby.
However, yesterday's roast chicken has obviously been eaten by that person?
The little boy followed the scent and pulled through the haystack at the door, looking for it, hoping to find something to eat.
Just then, he found a paper roast chicken behind a pile of grass! But the paper was rotten, and the roast chicken was stained with a little soil.
He understood that it was stolen by the homeless man before he had time to eat, but he didn't dare to eat it, he was afraid that he would be seen and end up with the homeless man.
The boy looked around, and there was no one around, so he quickly wrapped the chicken in a torn garment, and ran all the way to a temple where he had been in the beginning of his wanderings, and he knew that there was no one there.
There was not a single incense in the temple, only a Buddha statue, and some tattered pieces that no one wanted.
The boy was happy, he forgot about being afraid.
"Roast chicken!" He pulled off the chicken leg and took a big bite in his mouth.
"Delicious!"
It's the best thing he's ever eaten in these days of wandering, and it's his own! He doesn't have to be afraid of people beating him, he doesn't have to be afraid of others robbing him, because no one knows that there is a roast chicken here.
It's like last night so scared that I forgot to be hungry! The difference is that he forgot his fears today because he was full.
There was a few thunderstorms outside, and it was going to rain.
Just let the rain go on forever, and it's best to cover up the smell of the roast chicken.
"Kid! Child! Uncle Shen's cry called the boy back.
"Huh?" The boy came to his senses.
Perhaps, for him, all these ups and downs made him not know what to do.
"Kid." Shen Bo touched his head and looked at him kindly.
"Child, I will be your Uncle Shen from now on. You're a good boy, and everybody will be nice to you. You, very lucky, the Lou family is a good family, you don't have to wander in the future. ”
Shen Bo stood outside the wing room and looked at this poor, but clear-eyed boy, this is a distressing good boy.
The boy smiled, and he hugged Shen Bo's arm. He could feel the kindness from the Lou family, and he liked everyone he met here, and they were very nice to him.
"Yes, thank you Uncle Shen, I will be obedient."
Uncle Shen smiled reassuringly, and pulled the boy into the wing room to bathe and change clothes, after today, it was the beginning of the child's new life.
