Chapter 103: Bricklayer Quirks

"Not a ghost?" The visitor was obviously disappointed, "Isn't there no way to do it?" There is no way for my child to be saved? His eyes were red, and he sat down on the spot, rubbing his hands together on his trousers, as if he was anxious about losing something important.

"It's not a ghost, what's that?" I asked Grandpa.

Grandpa said, "I don't know, it's not a ghost anyway, I'm sure." You'll find out what it's when you get there. ”

When the man heard his grandfather say this, he immediately got up, took his grandfather's hand and begged, "Uncle, please go to my house and have a look." I know you're good at catching ghosts, but if you're not a ghost, you can go and see it, and you have to give me a little hope if you use a dead horse as a live horse doctor. Otherwise, my two children will have to wait until they die, please. ”

Grandpa's face was difficult. Grandpa has run back and forth between Hongjiaduan and Thrush Village for the matter of ghost prostitutes, and he really needs to take a good rest. Besides, after half a month, you have to beware of the appearance of ghost prostitutes, and at that time, you will have to deal with ghost prostitutes.

I saw my grandfather's thoughts, and helped the man persuade him: "This person is running from a neighboring county, so it can be seen that the situation is critical. Anyway, the ghost prostitute will have to wait a while for it to appear. We can go to him first, and at the same time, we can look at the second half of the ancient book, and learn more about the ghost prostitute, the better the chance of winning. ”

Actually, where is it not the same to read ancient books? But I really didn't have the words to persuade my grandfather, so I had to say this.

The man looked at me gratefully, and nodded to my grandfather.

When Grandpa saw me say this, he thought for a moment and said, "Okay." I promised to go with you, but we're going to get back quickly. There's a lot of work to do at home. ”

A lot of times my grandfather accommodates me, and as long as I speak, it seems that he has a hard time saying nothing. Later, my grandfather contracted a mild tuberculosis because he smoked too much, and every time I ate at my grandfather's house, my mother had to prepare two pairs of chopsticks for my grandfather. A pair of chopsticks to the grandfather's bowl, change a pair of chopsticks and then eat it, so as to avoid the grandfather's chopsticks from directly touching the dishes on the table, to prevent the virus from infecting us.

I think my mother's approach hurt my grandfather's heart a little, and I feel very sorry for my grandfather. The mother said, this is for the health of your child, the resistance of adults is strong, and it is not good for children to be infected. Grandpa immediately smiled and said, this is good, Liang Zai, do you know, this is called "chopsticks". He also told me about the origin of the title "chopsticks".

Grandpa was such a humble person at home, never asking for anything or complaining about anything.

When the man saw that his grandfather had promised to go to his place, he was so happy that he didn't know where to put it, and he touched his clothes countless times with his two hands, and smiled stupidly. One of his hands touched the pocket of his jacket, which was bulging. He immediately remembered, and hurriedly took out the cigarette inside and lit it for his grandfather: "Hey, hey, I almost forgot that I still have cigarettes on me." I should have smoked it for you, but I forgot everything in a hurry. ”

Grandpa took a puff and said, "I haven't smoked this brand of cigarettes yet, it tastes so good!" "Grandpa is like that, when he talks about cigarettes, he is energetic.

The man seemed to be still in a state of confusion, and it took a long time to hear his grandfather's words, and he stammered, "Huh? What did you just say? ”

Grandpa smiled and said, "Don't be so happy. I agreed, but I'm not sure I can help you. ”

"Hey, look at what you said. There will certainly be no problem for you to go, I believe you. The man smiled flatteringly at his grandfather. He pulled out another cigarette and handed it to me. I saw that his head was indeed hot, and I was still a junior high school student, so how could I smoke.

I said, "I'm a student, I don't smoke." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, as if he had just realized that I was a teenager, and hurriedly waved his hand embarrassedly, saying, "Look at you, I'm really confused." How can I give you cigarettes, you're still a student. ”

He put the cigarette back in his pocket, rubbed his hands together and asked, "When are we leaving?" ”

"The sooner the better." Grandpa said, "Let's go after dinner, and you will have a meal when you come to my house." ”

The man said, "What's so embarrassing about that?" That being said, there was no embarrassment in his tone, and his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile. We turned and went into the house, and he followed us in, and said in a rambling voice, "That's embarrassing, that's really disturbing." ”

At the dinner table, he introduced himself and said that he was a bricklayer from a certain county, and his name was Hao Jianfang. It seems that his parents expected this son to be a bricklayer by nature when they gave birth to him.

When eating, he picked and picked in the bowl, only the lean meat to eat, and turned the peppers aside. The amount of rice is also large, and after eating five bowls of rice in a row, the pot at the bottom of the pot has been scraped dry. After eating, he also used chopsticks to pick up a few rice grains stuck in the bowl one by one into his mouth.

Grandpa couldn't look past it and said, "Build a house, you still have to eat." If it's not enough, I'll ask my wife to cook more. ”

"Enough is enough," he said, waving his chopsticks, "I've come from home to your county, and I've eaten very little along the way." My daughter-in-law didn't make me many oil cakes, and I didn't eat them halfway. ”

"You can buy something to eat on the way." Grandpa said. I thought to myself that his financial conditions might not be good.

He said: "It's a little bit to be able to save. ”

Grandma praised him and said, "You are a man who can run a family." My wife can save some money on oil and salt by smoking less, but he just can't quit. If only he had as thrifty as you. ”

After eating, it was a little dark. Jianfang drank a cup of hot tea and asked his grandfather, "Shall we go now?" ”

Grandpa said, "Okay." "Grandpa asked me if I wanted to go, and I said go.

Jianfang said: "Bring a flashlight, it's not easy to walk at night." ”

"Walking?" I was surprised. I don't want to go if I walk. Although I don't know how far the neighboring county is, it is indispensable to have a good walk. I thought that Jianfang would call a car for us to take us there, but I didn't expect this person to pick the door so much.

Grandpa also looked embarrassed: "My body is old, and I'm afraid I'll lie down when I walk so many ways." Can you call a car to take you there? It's good that the road is short, but you're too far away to get there tomorrow morning. ”

Jianfang was stunned for a while and said, "Call a car?" I came on foot, and it's not hard to walk. But if you want to call a car, then I'll call one, do you care about that little money to save my child, you say? ”

I was dissatisfied, and deliberately said, "I'm not going to walk, or we can call a car ourselves." ”

He smiled and said, "I'll call a taxi." It's not good to do this, and I'm going to trouble you to go to my house to help after eating at your house. ”
