Chapter 766: An Old Couple!
But Duan Lengyan has already taken root in his heart, and it doesn't mean that it can be erased by erasing, Wan Dong sighed, a thousand things, and his heart is becoming more and more troubled.
Walking aimlessly on the streets of the War Imperial City, Wan Dong wanted to sort out all this, but the more he reasoned, the more chaotic he became, the more confused he became, and he couldn't wait to sawing his head open.
"Forget it, I can't figure it out, it's better to go with the flow." Wan Dong muttered in a low voice, pressing all his thoughts into his heart and fermenting them by himself. This trick really worked, and the heavy mood seemed to be a lot more relaxed and open-minded all of a sudden.
When I looked up, although it was late at night, a small wine shop on the side of the street was still lit with dim lights. In the middle of the night, this dim light is full of warmth and home. Wan Dong's heart moved, and he involuntarily walked over.
It is indeed a small wine shop, and the plaque on the door is already mottled, and it seems to be very old. The furnishings of the wine shop are also very simple, only one counter, five or six tables, and more than a dozen benches, which are simple, but they are unusually clean and tidy, and the tables and stools are also spotless, and they are cleaned very diligently at a glance.
Wan Dong was worried that he had nowhere to go, and this small wine shop that was still open late at night was simply the best place for him to go at the moment, so he stepped in.
"Old woman, put it down, let it go, didn't I say it, let me do all this heavy work!"
Wan Dong was looking for the owner of the liquor store, and behind him, an old couple walked in one after the other. The old couple each had frosty hair, and their bodies were slightly rickety, and it seemed that they had entered their prime. The old grandmother walked in front, carrying a swill bucket in her hand, as if she had just finished pouring the swill, and the old man followed behind, chattering incessantly, and his face was full of pity.
Such an environment, such an old couple, made Wan Dong's heart warm up all of a sudden, and a smile unconsciously added to his face.
"What kind of heavy work is pouring swill? It's been a lifetime, and it's okay! The old woman waved her hand and laughed. The sweetness contained in that smile is not inferior to those young girls.
"Why isn't it heavy, more than a dozen pounds, where can your body stand it......"
The old man still refused to give up, still chattering, but the old grandmother had already noticed Wan Dong, hurriedly patted him, and called his words back, "Don't say it, come to the guest." ”
"Guest?" The old man turned his head a little confused and looked at Wan Dong.
Wan Dong didn't expect that the owner of this small wine shop would be an elderly couple. A little embarrassed, he said, "It's so late, I'm disturbing the two old people." ”
"Huh...... What's late, it's early, right? The old man looked like an extrovert, and after a slight stunned, a hearty smile immediately appeared on his face.
Wan Dong turned his head to look at the night sky in the east through the window, and sure enough, it was already slightly white at dawn.
"Little brother, are you drinking or ...... Forget it, drinking so early is not good for your health, I'll get you something to eat, right? Old man, you beckon, I'll do it! ”
"Let's go, it's not bright yet, my eyes are better than yours."
"What's the use of having a good eye, the food has to be delicious. You, you still have to practice! ”
"Practice, practice, practice, I've been practicing all my life, and even the old king next door can't tell which of us cooks delicious food......
Before the old man could say what he said, the old grandmother had already opened the door curtain and walked into the backyard of the wine shop, and the old man could only sigh helplessly.
Wan Dong stepped forward with a smile and said, "Grandma is sorry for you, I'm afraid you're tired." ”
"She feels sorry for me, don't I feel sorry for her? Ay! The old man muttered, and then suddenly remembered that Wan Dong was a guest, and hurriedly said, "Young man, do it quickly, I'll pour you tea!" ”
"No need...... Wan Dong couldn't bear to let an old man run around to serve him, and was about to stop him, but the old man had already walked away quickly, and he didn't give him a chance at all. After a while, a cup of fragrant tea arrived in front of Wan Dong.
"Young man, you taste it, this is my new tea this year, it's delicious." The old man urged repeatedly.
Wan Dong took a sip, and sure enough, there was a very fresh breath, lingering on the tip of the tongue, which was very good. Nodding his head and praising him, Wan Dong asked, "Old man, why did you get up so early?" ”
The old man snorted and said, "On this day, all kinds of dishes must be prepared one by one, what is missing, what is missing, and you have to buy it in time, and there are a lot of chores to wipe the table and wipe the bench, so it's not early." ”
"Isn't that hard?" Looking at the old man's frosty hair, Wan Dong's heart swelled with a touch of sympathy.
"Hard? No, no, no, it's not hard at all. The old man shook his head again and again.
Wan Dong thought that the old man was just covering up, but from his face, Wan Dong really didn't notice even the slightest hardship or complaint, on the contrary, Wan Dong felt a strong satisfaction and happiness from the old man's eyes.
Wan Dong was a little confused for a while, and he really couldn't understand how he didn't work hard when he got up early and was busy making a living every day? Wan Dong couldn't help but shake his head, thinking in his heart, if he was allowed to come to this old man's house, he was afraid that he would never feel even a trace of happiness.
"Come on, young man, you take a sip of white porridge first, this is what I just boiled, it's very fragrant." The old grandmother opened the curtain and walked in, holding a tray in her hand, on which was a bowl of white porridge, as well as a few plates of dried radish, vinegared peanuts and other side dishes.
Wan Dong was about to get up to pick it up, but the old man was faster than him, so he stood up suddenly, and hurriedly reached over to take the tray in the old grandmother's hand.
The old man's movements were so fast, of course, that Wan Dong was surprised, but at this time, the old man's eyes when he looked at the old grandmother made Wan Dong's mind boom, as if it had exploded, and the world was turned upside down.
He suddenly understood that for such a hard life, the old man would still feel satisfied and happy, and that was because of love!
If you can stay with your beloved for a lifetime, where will you feel hard? Wan Dong's original sympathy for the old couple turned into envy in an instant. If one day, he can also spend his life in such a small shop with his beloved woman, how happy would it be?
"Young man, what are you doing in a daze? Taste it! The old woman said with a smile.
Wan Dong nodded lightly and sent a mouthful of white porridge to his mouth, an unusually sweet taste, which immediately overflowed Wan Dong's heart.
"It's delicious, it's delicious!" There is nothing pretentious, Wan Dong said sincerely.
As soon as these words came out, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on the grandmother's face, and she said continuously, "Then you eat first, and I'll fry some vegetables for you!" ”
"Old woman, let's go!"
"You better rest, I'm not tired!"
"But ......"
The old woman didn't let the old man finish his words, and disappeared behind the curtain again.
The old man sighed helplessly, so he could only do it, and sat down again with Wan Dong.
Poof!
Just as Wan Dong was tasting the sweetest white porridge he had ever drunk in his life, a muffled sound suddenly came from the backyard of the wine shop. Wan Dong and the old man glanced at each other, at first they only thought that something had fallen to the ground, and they didn't take it seriously, but then the old grandmother's exclamation startled the two of them.
"What's wrong with you, old woman!?" The old man's face turned white, he shouted, turned around and ran to the backyard, but accidentally knocked down the stool, stumbled, and planted himself under the wall.
Fortunately, Wan Dong reacted quickly enough, and at the last moment, he reached out and pulled the old man back, which didn't let him fall solid.
"Leave me alone, quick, go see my wife......" The old man didn't wait for his body to fully stand still, he waved his hand again and again, and struggled to rush to the backyard again.
Worried that the old man would have another accident, Wan Dong simply carried him on his back and swept to the backyard like the wind.
When he came to the backyard, Wan Dong saw the old grandmother standing there at a glance, although her face was full of fear, but she was not injured all over her body, and there should be no major problem.
"What's wrong with you, old woman?" The old man struggled to jump off Wan Dong's back, rushed forward in a few steps, and grabbed his wife's hand. The grip was tight, as if the grandmother would disappear as soon as it was released.
"Dead ...... Dead person! Under the old man's chattering questions and comfort, the old woman finally came back to her senses, and said with trembling lips.
Wan Dong frowned, and hurriedly followed the old grandmother's gaze, and this look was really taken aback. I saw that in the corner of the courtyard wall in the backyard, there was a man covered in blood, motionless, just like a dead person.
"Ahh The old man was caught off guard and was also taken aback, and subconsciously hugged the old grandmother.
This old couple has an ordinary life, where has they seen such a scene, and it is normal to be frightened. Thinking of the muffled sound of the pop before, this person must have turned in from the outside and should still be alive.
Wan Dong comforted the old couple and walked over.
The man was originally lying on his stomach, but Wan Dong carefully turned him over, facing the sky on his back.
"Flying!?" As soon as he saw this person's face, the name immediately appeared in Wan Dong's mind.
By now, Wan Dong's memory has long been completely integrated with Xu Yaoting, and he no longer distinguishes from each other, so he naturally recognizes Feiyang!
Feiyang and Mingju are undoubtedly Xu Tianlong's most trusted subordinates, and for more than ten years, they have regarded them as brothers. Every time Xu Tianlong went home, he would take the two with him, and Xu Yaoting not only knew them, but was also quite familiar with them.
Wan Dong was taken aback at first, but he didn't expect Feiyang to appear in the Battle Emperor City. But after thinking about it, Wan Dong was not so surprised. Mingju and Feiyang were loyal to Xu Tianlong, Xu Tianlong was caught in the Battle Emperor City, and it was strange that the two did not appear here.
Recognizing that it was Feiyang, Wan Dong didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly put a trace of Dao Qi into his body, and carefully probed his injuries......
