Out of the hospital, the old man originally wanted Yu Chao and the others to go back by himself first, but he didn't say what he was going to do, looking a little embarrassed.

Yu Chao thought to himself, is he afraid of troublesome himself?

Hey, what's the matter, along the way.

So Yu Chao and the community staff sent the old man to the car half-supported and half-pulled.

On the way back to see the old man back, Yu Chao found that this Uncle Fang seemed to be very restrained, and the community staff in the front row talked to him, and he only answered that sentence occasionally.

Uncle Fang's back is a little arched, but it doesn't look like a natural hunchback, but there is a feeling of being bent by the hardships of life.

The clothes he wears are still the same "really good" (local dialect, I don't know what to call it) from decades ago, well, it's the kind that often appears on TV, with a pocket on the top and bottom, a windbreaker button, and the color of the clothes is gray.

The sleeves may be washed too many times, some of them are worn out, and the overall color is about to turn yellow. In addition, it is not uncommon to have dirt and dust in the relationship between farm work.

Well, the pants have two big patches on the knees, and the trousers are a little long and rolled up.

An old pair of cloth shoes may have been worn for too long, and the toes can be seen from the front ends, and the surrounding areas are covered in mud.

Uncle Fang was sitting precariously, his whole body shrank inward as much as he could, some distance away from Yu Chao, as if he was a little worried that he was too dirty and would dirty Yu Chao or his car.

The two calloused hands were intertwined, and they didn't dare to move, their heads were buried very low, their ears were a little red, and they didn't even dare to lean their backs on the seats.

Yu Chao was also from a poor family, so he naturally understood the old man's mentality, so he thought of comforting him not to be so restrained.

However, it may not be good to say it directly, and Yu Chao doesn't have that mouth, so he thought of another idea.

"Uncle Fang, listen to your people, you used to be a master stone carver?

When I came down from the mountain, I seemed to pass by in front of your house, and I felt that the stone lions and the grinding plate were very strong workmanship. ”

Uncle Fang's body trembled, and he raised his head to look at Yu Chao for the first time.

"Young man, do you like those things? Then I'll give it to you, you paid in advance in the hospital just now, and I don't have any money to pay you, old man, or use those things to offset the bill?"

Belch?

After a long time, it turned out that the old man had been worried about this just now!

Yu Chao waved his hand and said, "Uncle Fang, don't think about it so much. We met by fate, don't take it to heart if you don't have money, it was given by me voluntarily, and there is absolutely no other meaning.

I just admire your craftsmanship and think that a craftsman like you is having a hard time, and I am really happy to be able to help. ”

When the old man heard this, he buried his head again, and said self-deprecatingly: "Yes, those stone carvings are too big and heavy, and it is very troublesome to get out, and they are not a good thing, so you should not look down on them." ”

Hey, isn't this old man getting into the horns?

We really don't mean that!

"Uncle Fang, I didn't mean to look down on you. I think it's just a friend of you, we all know each other, and it's not a big deal.

To be honest, I appreciate your old craft. In this way, I still have a few friends in the mountains, and I will help you find a local tyrant buyer when I go back, help you pull the thread, and I will definitely sell it to you at a good price.

As for you, take the money and improve your life, so you don't have to work so hard. If it's okay, just go around, eat whatever you want, play wherever you want, and live each day happily, okay?"

The old man shook his head, "I don't sell it, the old man is old, those were carved when he was young, but unfortunately he can't sell them."

Now, if you want it, I'll give it to you, and I'll pay for the medical bills. If it's not enough, the old man can't help it, you look at what is valuable at home, you take it at will. ”

The community worker in the front row laughed.

"Hehe, uncle, you're really interesting. Don't Mr. Yu just want to help you, if you really want to talk about it, your stone carvings are more than that medical expenses!

You can rest assured, Mr. Yu will help you introduce buyers, go back and collect the money, ask someone to repair the house, improve your life or something. ”

The old man looked disbelieving, "You are all good people, I know.

But those stones are worthless, they are all over the mountains, and they used to sell a millstone for only two buckets of wheat, but now they are even less valuable.

I've heard that some people can carve it out with a machine, and it's more beautiful and convenient than mine.

Even if my stuff is worth a few bucks, it will cost more money to get it out, and it won't be worth it. The old man can't ignore his conscience and let good people have no good reward. ”

Well, this old man is too stubborn, isn't he?

The community worker shook his head, not knowing what to say.

Yu Chao thought about it and took out his mobile phone directly and dialed it.

"Hey, old Tan, well, it's okay, we're on our way back. ”

"There is such a thing, when I was walking in the mountains, I found a pair of stone lions, and I don't have to say anything about the craftsmanship of the carving.

You see if you need such a pair over there, for music or something, can't you also use it? ”

"Oh, by the way, there's also a grinding disc, which is used to push the grind, well, grinding tofu you know?

Turn around and put it on the side of the street, hand-grinding tofu, hehe, it's also a gimmick. ”

"Okay, you want to buy it? Okay, I'll go with you when we get there, and you have to buy it when you see it." Okay, we'll get back in touch when we get there. ”

Yu Chao hung up the phone and smiled at the old man: "Uncle Fang, look, I have even found a buyer for you, don't look back and don't want to sell!"

If you really don't want to owe me money, then you might as well sell those stone carvings and pay me back. Don't worry, there must be a lot of them!"

"Really, someone can buy it, and it's worth a lot of money?" the old man felt a little incredible.

It's not like no one came to ask at the beginning, but those people all said that it was very troublesome to get out. If you want to move to the mountain road, not to mention the distance, it is still a downhill road, such a heavy stone, how hard it is to rely on people, and if you are not careful, you will have an accident.

As for relying on machines, such as what kind of crane, you can't drive it at all, and the cost of renting a car is thousands of yuan, and others are not willing to buy it.

"Then how do they get out after they buy it? It's so heavy, the old man doesn't estimate that there are seven or eight young and energetic young men, and he can't carry them out at all, so the money has to be spent for a long time!"

Yu Chao didn't know, he just wanted to help the old man.

"It's okay, my friend is from an engineering background, he has experience in these, as long as he wants, he will definitely be able to think of a way to get it out, as for the money, hehe, others don't lack that, just want to get some face-saving things." ”

The old man seemed a little excited, his hands wiped and wiped on his thighs, his mouth moved slightly, and his breathing became rapid.

Hey, in fact, it's good to buy it, it's a big deal to go back to the Xuanmen Association, if you need it, you can refine some feng shui effects yourself, and you can get it back if you keep a lot of money.

If you can help, it's okay if you don't have the ability, if you have the ability, and you just happen to meet it, it's good to accumulate virtue for yourself.

The old man may be used to it, although he has a subsistence allowance, with his spending power, he can live a good life, but he has no heart, how difficult it is for this person to live!

Yu Chao didn't think about helping a little more, but how could he help?

The old man doesn't seem to want to owe favors to others, it's not good to give money, he can only help as much as possible, and everyone is happy if he can do his best.
