At this time, it was already evening, Li Tianze and Long Ling were playing happily with the stone, and this stone was also very happy.
When a few people were tired of playing and tired, they sat down on the stone bench to rest. With a fleshy little face at this moment, Li Tianze couldn't help asking, "What do you wish for, can you tell my big brother?"
"Of course, there is a wish, that is, there are endless sugar gourds, and there is no need to be hungry, there is endless food, so that grandpa does not have to go out to beg all day for food. ā
The stone rested one hand on the stone table, and the other hand held his chin, and he said it without thinking.
Hearing this, Li Tianze and Long Ling were inevitably a little touched in their hearts. They can imagine the miserable life of a young child without a father and mother and an old beggar.
Long Ling asked with some emotion: "Then have you ever thought about going to school, learning knowledge, and learning skills?
Hearing Long Ling ask like this, Shi blinked his eyes and said in a low voice: "Is this, I'm still young, but I haven't thought too much about it, but I just feel that I can't even eat enough, and I don't dare to think about these things." ā
Hearing a child's answer, Li Tianze and Long Ling couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic and sad.
"Yes, when you can't even eat, what do you want to talk about? For a while, Shishi's helpless words made Li Tianze's heart sigh.
Just then, a creaking door opened. The three of them hurriedly rushed in the direction of the door.
I saw that the old beggar was holding a wooden stick, holding an empty bowl in his hand, bowing his head, and while turning around and closing the door, he sighed, and was very depressed and depressed. And the clothes are still so ragged.
"Grandpa, you're there. ā
When his grandfather returned, Shi hurriedly got up and quickly greeted him, and when the old beggar looked up, his face immediately changed, and he felt very surprised.
The old beggar was supported by the stone, walked a few steps faster, and came to the two of them.
"It turned out that the two of them came over, it was really a long way to go, I heard the stone say, this time it was thanks to the two of them to come to the rescue, otherwise my stone would be in danger, and the old man really didn't know how to thank the two. ā
The beggar looked like he couldn't repay it, Li Tianze smiled slightly: "Old beggar, don't be so polite, no matter who encounters this kind of thing, it should be something to do if you can make a difference, it's not enough to worry about it." ā
Hearing Li Tianze say this, the old beggar was even more grateful to Li Tianze and Long Ling from the bottom of his heart, but helplessly, he had nothing to thank the two.
"Hey, I'm an old beggar, and I don't have anything to entertain my two benefactors, so please forgive me. The old beggar said very reluctantly.
Li Tianze and Long Ling said that they didn't care about this, and then the old beggar was helped to the stone bench by the stone.
"We just came here today on purpose and stone, nothing else. Li Tianze continued.
"Two benefactors, it is really an honor for my grandfather and grandson to come here today with an old beggar and a stone. The beggar put his crutch aside and said with gratitude on his face.
"Grandpa, your brother and sister bought me so many delicious foods, as well as the sugar gourd that I am most willing to eat. Shi said with a happy look.
"You melon baby, you know how to eat, do you have a thank you big brother, big sister!" the old beggar scolded with a smile. Immediately, it was a meal of thanks to Li Tianze and Long Ling.
In this way, Li Tianze and Long Ling then let the old beggar and the stone eat the food they bought. And the old beggar was grateful, and after thanking him, he ate with some embarrassment.
It turned out that if Li Tianze and Long Ling hadn't come today, then the old beggar and Shi would have been hungry today, because the old beggar hadn't begged for any food today. And the dejected appearance when he came back just now was also extremely depressed and melancholy about the result of today's begging.
But fortunately, Li Tianze and Long Ling arrived in time, but they solved the food and clothing of themselves and Shi Shi today, and they haven't eaten for two days.
People were a little embarrassed to open up to eat, and Li Tianze and Long Ling just kept handing them food. At the same time, the two of them also accompanied their grandparents and grandchildren to eat together, but Li Tianze and Long Ling also ate less food in order to make the two not so restrained.
The grandfather and grandson had a full meal, very contented, and the stone kept burping, and their faces were full of smiles. And the old beggar was really hungry and ate a lot.
When the sky was getting dark, Li Tianze and Long Ling were about to say goodbye to the two, and before leaving, Li Tianze took out a stack of golden tickets from his arms, which had more than a hundred gold.
Tian Ze acted like this, Long Ling knew it. And the grandfather and grandson didn't know why, but they felt that their grandfather and grandson had never seen such a large amount of money in front of them, flashing with such a dazzling light, which couldn't help but make the old beggar a little shocked in his heart.
Li Tianze didn't say a word, he directly handed the stack of golden tickets to the old beggar's hand, and said: "Old beggar, don't refuse me, these are the bounties given to me by the city lord, and I can't use them." So you take this money, and when the time comes, find a better academy for Shishi, let him learn knowledge and skills, and you can't let him follow you all the time so hard, you must not dismiss my kindness. ā
The old beggar was holding the money in his hand, and when he wanted to say no, Long Ling interrupted and said: "Old beggar, take it, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the stone, he is still young, and there is a future waiting for him in the future, please don't refuse us." ā
The two of them said this, the old beggar's hands holding the money trembled slightly, he was very grateful to the two of them for such a reciprocal help, in addition to moving, it was unrequited gratitude, and then said with some emotion: "The two benefactors help our grandchildren like this, my old beggar really doesn't know how to thank the two, just accept my old beggar's worship, if the stone has a chance in the future, I will let him not forget the kindness of the two, the stone kneels." ā
Li Tianze and Long Ling, the old beggar, were about to kowtow and kneel while pulling the stone, and thanked the two, and the two hurriedly stopped them.
Li Tianze hurriedly picked up the old beggar, while Long Ling held on to the stone, Li Tianze hurriedly said, "What are you doing, old beggar." ā
"Yes, the old beggar doesn't have to thank the two of us like this, if he really wants to thank the two of us, then take this money and help Shi plan a good future, which can be regarded as thanking us. ā
At this moment, the old beggar was moved to tears for a while, he has lived for such a long time, and he has seen and experienced all kinds of things and people. I have also suffered hardship, and I have enjoyed happiness. I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would be able to meet Li Tianze and Long Ling, who did not dislike themselves as useless old bones, and were so good people who did not care about returns.
"All right, old beggar, if we have time, we will come again, we are going to go now, take care. ā
As he spoke, Li Tianze touched the little head of the stone and said, "Stone, remember, you must learn your skills well, so that you can be promising, you know?"
Although the stone is small, he also knows some things, and his eyes seem to be a little moved, and then he nodded heavily, and said: "Don't worry, big brother, big sister, I have learned the ability of Shishi, I must be a good person, and I will repay the big brother and big sister when the time comes." ā
"There's no need to repay it, as long as you learn your skills hard, it's the best reward, so now the big brother and big sister are leaving, and I'll come back to your grandfather when I have time." ā
After speaking, Li Tianze and Long Ling turned around and walked towards the outside of the courtyard, letting the old beggar wipe his tears and stones to watch the two leave.
When the two gradually disappeared from the field of vision of the grandfather and grandson, the old beggar and the stone reluctantly walked back to the courtyard.
