Chapter 244: A Dream Picked Up in the Trash
Chen Fan looked at the little boy subconsciously standing beside him, and pointed to the can in the homeless man's hand and argued, especially the bottle that he didn't finish drinking, he wouldn't pick it up, so that Chen Fan's heart was touched again.
However, no matter how noble the little boy's qualities are, he still can't impress the homeless, although he has fallen to the point of sleeping on a park chair, but when he sees a little boy picking up garbage, that gray gaze finds a higher foothold than others.
The drunk man pointed at the little boy with a fierce look on his face and said: "What if you finish drinking, Lao Tzu's bottle, you can't pick it up if you are not allowed to pick it up, if you want a bottle, buy a new bottle for Lao Tzu, and when Lao Tzu finishes drinking, I will give it to you, how about it?"
"No, I picked up the bottle to raise money for grandpa's medical treatment, so I don't want to buy you beer, the bottle has already been returned to you. ”
The little boy tightened the plastic bag on his shoulder, and with the other hand clasped a small bag on his side waist, Chen Fan only noticed that the little boy's small bag was neatly placed in a small bag, the big one was ten yuan, and the small one was only one cent.
"You disturbed Lao Tzu's sleep and asked you to buy it, you have to buy it, believe it or not, Lao Tzu sold you to a dealer!"
The drunkard threatened fiercely, and just as he was beaming with pride, he suddenly felt the earth turn upside down, and before he could figure out what was going on, his body flew upside down and hit the edge of the flower stand.
The drunk spat out a mouthful of filth, opened his eyes, and found that he was five or six meters away from the stool, and he was kicked away by the passer-by next to the little boy!
"Damn, you're looking for death!"
The drunk man got up and wanted to make a move on Chen Fan, but saw Chen Fan jump over the bench again and walk towards him.
Bang kick!
The drunk was kicked down by Chen Fan again, Chen Fan stepped on the drunkard's face with one foot, sank his face into the mud, lowered his head and spat at him, "I like to bully children, I want to drink beer, Lao Tzu has urine, do you drink it?"
"Don't ...... Don't, big brother...... I'm wrong, I'm wrong, can't I......"
The drunk man was trampled on by Chen Fan's face and kept begging Chen Fan for mercy.
"Get out!"
Chen Fan kicked the drunkard's buttocks, and the drunken man was about to flee when he got up.
"Wait a minute!"
As soon as the drunk man took a few steps, he was stopped by Chen Fan, who turned his head a little panicked, not daring to look directly into Chen Fan's eyes.
"The cans are left. ”
Chen Fan pointed to the crumpled can in the drunk's hand.
"Yes...... Be. ”
The drunk man put the can on the ground and quickly ran away, for fear that Chen Fan would find him for bad luck.
Chen Fan bent down, picked up the cans on the ground, came to the little boy, saw that the little boy was looking at him with a look of adoration, and said to him, "You come with me." ”
"Oh. ”
The little boy followed Chen Fan, and the two came to the garbage can dozens of meters away, and inside, there were several cans that Chen Fan kicked into.
The little boy finally knew Chen Fan's purpose, and when he saw Chen Fan reach out to help him go to the trash can to get cans, he hurriedly grabbed Chen Fan's arm with his little hand.
"Big brother, don't ...... Just let me do it, the trash can is dirty and will stain your hands. ”
The little boy said, for fear that Chen Fan would really put his hand in, he was about the same height as the trash can, and stuck it into the trash can, and when a can was picked up by his little hand, he stuck out his tongue at Chen Fan and laughed with a sense of achievement.
Chen Fan sighed inexplicably, and finally put his hand into the trash can, picked up the cans one by one and put them into the little boy's plastic bag, he saw the little boy looking at him in a daze, Chen Fan couldn't help laughing, he said: "The hand that picks up dreams will never be defiled, you have surpassed a lot of people, do you understand?"
The little boy nodded, shook his head again, and looked like he didn't understand, "Brother, you are a good person." ”
"Really?"
Chen Fan fished out the last can in the trash can and put it into the little boy's plastic bag, and the little boy looked at the half-pocket can and showed a happy smile.
The cleaner dragging a long broom walked up to Chen Fan and the little boy at some point, and his hand that had been soaked in orange peel handed the little boy another bag of cans, revealing a sincere smile.
"It's all yours, kid. ”
"Thank you, grandpa!"
The little boy picked up another bag of cans and bottles, laughed happily, and reached into the bag on his waist to pull out the change, but the cleaner reached out and held it down.
"Go back quickly, your grandfather will be worried again when it's late. ”
"Then when I have money in the future, I will definitely repay you. The little boy waved his hand at the cleaner, and then waved at Chen Fan, "Brother, you are a good person, and I will be a good person in the future." ”
The little boy was carrying cans on his shoulders, his small back was particularly clear in the morning sun, the cans made a pleasant sound like wind chimes, and he carried his dreams and smiled towards the sun.
Chen Fan kept staring at his back as he walked away step by step, and when he turned around, the cleaner next to him had already lit a dry cigarette and smoked it, and the pungent smell of smoke emanated from him.
"Alas, poor baby. ”
The cleaner took a few puffs, seemed a little melancholy, and tapped his pipe on his shoes, extinguishing the dry smoke.
"This uncle, that child, do you know?"
The cleaner looked Chen Fan up and down a few times, and saw that Chen Fan's arm was soiled by the edge of the trash can, he handed Chen Fan a handkerchief, and said: "A seven or eight-year-old child, every morning at six o'clock to pick up bottles, eight o'clock to take care of grandpa, nine o'clock to go to school, I don't want to know, it's difficult, young man, you are the first time I have been sweeping this street for ten years, I have met someone who can put his hand into the trash can, dirt can dirty your hands, but not your heart, you are very kind, such young people, there are very few." ”
"Uncle, aren't you too?" Chen Fan returned the handkerchief to the cleaner, "He just said that picking up bottles to make money is to treat his grandfather?"
"Yes, her grandfather and I are neighbors, we used to do the medicinal herb business, five years ago he went bankrupt overnight, his son and daughter-in-law were killed, leaving only two-year-old Lili, her grandfather was paralyzed in bed three years ago, this baby, life is too bitter. ”
The cleaner sighed again, Chen Fan was silent for a few seconds, suddenly realized something, and said, "Lili......? Is it a girl?"
"yes...... He is a girl, in order to take care of her grandfather, he has become a little boy, a little boy who is running for a living, this world is ...... It's unfair. ”
The cleaner pushed the garbage truck and shook his head helplessly.
Chen Fan slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them, his gaze became clear.
"Uncle, can you take me to her house?"
