Chapter 221: Artist Dabin
In the days after Uncle Nine left, the silversmith shop became a lot quieter, and I had to be busy with the craftsman's business and make silver jewelry according to the customer's requirements. No one made Wei Lai laugh anymore, and Wei Lai was obviously not as happy as before.
But the children don't seem to know how to say goodbye, and although there is less laughter, they still run around the house in the walker.
Seeing that she was not affected by Uncle Nine's departure, I let her go!
Half a month after Uncle Nine left, Wei Lai finally learned to call Dad! I was busy working on one of a customer's accessories that day. Wei Lai was probably hungry, and slid to my side, two small hands pulling at my clothes, and there was a sound in his mouth!
I was busy with the work at hand and didn't look at her, she probably saw that I didn't react a little anxious, her little hand slapped the walker, her calves jumped, and in a hurry, she called out her father and two sons, although the cry was not very clear, but I could feel that she was calling her father.
My heart warmed violently, and I dropped my work and picked Wei Lai out of the walker.
Wei Laiwu drooled and opened his mouth lightly, and called out again: "Dad...... Dad, eat! ”
I was overjoyed, this little thing really learned to call dad without a teacher, you must know that I have never taught her to call dad, she just heard the word dad from Uncle Jiu when he usually teased her!
After a long time, she probably already knew in her little head that the man in front of her should be called Dad!
Seeing that I was just hugging her and laughing, Wei Lai called again, it was still those three words, I just reacted, the little thing was hungry, I couldn't help but sigh, unconsciously, Wei Lai could already express her meaning by speaking, instead of crying!
I hurriedly put her back in the walker and got up to make her powdered milk, and the little thing followed me all the way, looking up at me with my little head and eyes as I prepared her lunch.
A month later, Wei Lai started to get out of the walker, and she was already able to hold on to the corner on her own, or I just put two fingers on her shoulder and she was able to walk on her own, and after a few days she didn't even need this!
Although she often sits forward and backward on her feet, she can go wherever she wants without any assistance.
During this time, General Wei, Wei Lai's best partner, seemed to be exceptionally sensible, and acted as the guardian and witness of Wei Lai's toddler. It would always run to Wei Lai when she fell, and Wei Lai would grab the long hair on its body and stand up by himself!
Once Wei Lai lay on the ground because he ran too fast, General Wei hurriedly ran to her side when he saw this, but I don't know why this time Wei Lai lay on the ground and didn't want to get up, tilting his head and looking at the ground in front of him.
I was sitting on the workbench next to me and was about to pull her up, when an amazing scene happened!
I saw General Wei arch Wei Lai with his claws arched on the ground with his head cocked, and seeing that Wei Lai still didn't mean to get up, he lowered his head and grabbed the back of Wei Lai's neck with his mouth, and when he raised his head, he pulled Wei Lai, who couldn't get up, alive!
I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw this scene! This! Still a dog?
Since then, I have never treated General Wei as a dog, and I will give him a separate portion when we eat, so that he can eat at the same time as us, instead of waiting for us to finish and then prepare leftovers for him.
I also wash the bowl after each meal! In my heart, it has become a member of my family, an indispensable member!
When Wei Lai was one year old, he was already able to walk very steadily, and he rarely wrestled again.
On my birthday, I went to the cake shop to buy a small cake and came back, although Wei Lai had never seen a cake, but probably intuitively
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Telling her that this round thing must be delicious, she moved to the table and stared at the cake with her eyes, and her saliva unconsciously flowed to her chin.
In order to make Wei Lai's first birthday solemn, I also deliberately put a candle on the cake to light it.
I picked up Wei Lai and approached the cake and told her to blow out the candle, Wei Lai was already able to understand my words, she really pouted and blew on the candle, but because her mouth was too wide and she blew several times, it only bent the flame slightly.
She probably knew that she would probably not be able to eat cake if she didn't complete this ritual, but after several failures, she was so desperate that she put saliva in her mouth and was about to spit on the candle in order to extinguish the candle.
Seeing that she was anxious to eat the cake, I stopped teasing her, I pinched the corners of her mouth with my hands, leaving only the middle of her small lips, and let her try it again, this time it really worked, and it was a success!
Wei Lai giggled happily when he saw that the candle was finally extinguished!
Since Uncle Nine left, another member of our family appeared at this time.
Just as I pulled out the candle and was about to cut the cake, I stumbled back and found him!
If it weren't for the fact that he was carrying a travel bag that was taller than his head and a guitar slung over his shoulder, I would have almost taken him for a beggar!
He stood at the door of the silversmith's shop, with a lonely look on his face, his skin tanned and shiny, and his beard unshaven! His shoulder-length hair was clumped, and his clothes were slick and unwashed for an unknown amount of time.
I was curious, and I didn't care about cutting the cake, so I walked to the door with Wei Lai in my arms, and before I got close to him, I smelled a strong smell of sweat, and the little Wei Lai was smoked and turned his face away.
I can already guess his demeanor and dress, who has not been young and ignorant, who has not had a dream of wandering the world with a dream as a horse!
It's just that he is young and frivolous and doesn't know the suffering of the world, thinking that his little talent can support his dreams, but he doesn't know that once he really goes to the road, he finds that the ideal is really far from reality, and he accidentally fell into the appearance in front of him!
"Is there anything wrong with you?" I asked politely.
"I haven't eaten in two days! Yes...... Can you give me something to eat? His expression was a little timid and a little embarrassed, and he was almost embarrassed and didn't know where to put his hand!
When I heard what he said and saw his delicate appearance, I couldn't help but laugh.
I wanted to tease him, so I pretended to be silent and didn't speak.
When he saw that I didn't speak, he probably thought I was trying to get something from him, and immediately added, "I don't have any money!" But I can sing, can I sing a song to you? After speaking, he looked at me expectantly.
I didn't want to tease him anymore, so I said, "Okay, today is my daughter's first birthday, you sing her a song, if you can make her laugh, I'll treat you to cake!" ”
The young man was immediately overjoyed and nodded again and again!
I let him in, the three of us sat down around the cake, and he started playing the guitar and singing the birthday song to Wei Lai!
The kind-hearted Wei Lai didn't know that this person was here to share her cake to eat, and as soon as he opened his mouth to sing, he smiled very face-savingly, and stretched out his little hand with great interest and wanted to touch this thing that made beautiful music when he played with it.
When the young man saw Wei Lai laughing, he smiled even more happily, and he turned his face to look at me after singing a song.
I had already cut the cake, gave Wei Lai some out, and then bowed to him and motioned for him to eat, the young man was probably really hungry, and he didn't talk nonsense with me anymore
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, picked up the plate and cut the boss into a piece, and ate it when you put it up!
Looking at his eating appearance, I think of a word: hungry wolf pounces! It's not too appropriate for him at this moment. He stuffed a huge piece of cake into his stomach in three or two bites, and then looked at me again, and his expression seemed to say: Can I eat some more!
I smiled and nodded, and with my permission he made another big piece, a small cake that was already half gone, and when he tried to reach out for the third time to fill the rest of the cake, Wei Lai, who had not yet eaten the first spoonful in his mouth, stopped drying, and stamped his foot with a reluctant shrill cry in protest.
The young man's hand that had just stretched out suddenly froze in the air, and his expression suddenly became embarrassed! Laughed dryly twice and retracted his hand stupidly!
looked at Wei Lai and then at me, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry! Oh, I'm so hungry! ”
I held back a smile and said to him noncommittally: "You bear with me first, this cake is reserved for my daughter, I'll get you some food, you can sit down for a while!" ”
The young man was even more embarrassed when he heard this, but he didn't refuse, it seemed that he was really hungry, and his face was nothing compared to the hunger in his belly. He laughed dryly twice in reply.
So I went to the kitchen and fried a big bowl of egg fried rice for him, and he thanked him and took the bowl and lowered his head to eat it. I want to laugh and feel sad when I see it.
So this guy named Dabin, a self-proclaimed talented musician, became a member of our silversmith shop. That day, after dinner, he told me that he had walked all the way to Tibet, and when he set out, it was a group of people, and he was left alone as he walked.
Because they agreed when they set out, everyone did not bring a penny, and they had to rely on their performances to make a living, until they reached the westernmost part of the motherland, and then continued in another direction, until their footprints traveled all over the rivers and mountains of the motherland! This is an affirmation and interpretation of their great musical dreams!
So this group of talented musicians set off with a dream full of confidence, but then things were very exciting, they found that the farther they went, the farther away they felt from their dreams!
The original unity of the city also collapsed with hunger in the belly, and before he had gone a few hundred miles, someone turned around and went home, and the more he went, the more desolate the procession became, until at last he was the only one left, and although he arrived, he was no different from a beggar, that is, when I saw him, I was sure that all he thought about must have been food, and as for what dreams, I am afraid that he had already looked at it cleanly!
I asked him where he was going next after dinner that day, and he replied that he liked the place and wanted to stay here for some time. I asked him what he was going to live on, and he thought about it for a while, and finally shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I thought I could support myself by singing, but I didn't expect that no one would want to listen to me sing!" The expression is infinitely sentimental, and it seems that he finally realizes that dreams are just dreams after all, and he can't even exchange a steamed bun in front of reality!
So I asked him to stay at the silversmith's shop for a while, but only if he took care of himself first, and he readily agreed. So, after I pointed him in the direction of Cangyongco, he took a piece of soap from me, carried his backpack and went to Cangyongco.
When he came back, he seemed to be a different person, and I realized that this young man was quite handsome, and he really looked like an artist when he got clean!
