Chapter 102: The Child King
Although it has just passed the New Year, no matter how poor the conditions at home are, children can also get a handful of candy sweet mouths.
But Tao Wan's hand is a good-looking and large white rabbit toffee, which is different from the sugar cubes made by mixing saccharin and pigments they bought at home!
Everyone quieted down and stared at Tao Wan's hand.
Tao Wan breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it was a child, it was easy to coax.
"You are obedient and obedient, answer your sister's questions, and whoever answers correctly and well, I will reward whoever you want."
Tao Wan's words fell, and the children were impatient: "Ask, ask!" ”
The one who spoke was a gray-faced boy, and Tao Wan saw that the ash on his neck could be scraped off and plastered the wall.
It's inconvenient to take a bath in the village, but just after the Chinese New Year, which serious family doesn't clean up the children at home.
The boy was not very well educated, and he looked impatient and impolite, and he took two steps forward as he spoke, as if he were about to rob.
Tao Wan felt that such a child must not be used to it, so she put the candy in her hand into her pocket.
"Sister Xiao Tao, you ask!" Yin Jiaojiao is also greedy.
Liu Yan usually doesn't let Tao Wan give her too much candy to eat, so Tao Wan doesn't often give her candy to eat.
When the other children heard Yin Jiaojiao call her Sister Xiao Tao, they also called "Sister Xiao Tao", which was very sweet.
"Listen to me tell me a story first."
Tao Wan told them the story of Cao Chong's elephant, because he lived by the sea since he was a child, and he was used to seeing boats.
"So who can tell me why Cao Chong knows the weight of an elephant?"
Because she has lived with Yin Jiaojiao for half a year, she talks to children and paints her voice. Everyone listened to the story and was fascinated.
They haven't stopped telling such interesting stories!
The mother and the grandmother at home talked about either the wolves on the mountain coming down to eat people, or the old leather dressed as an adult, and they also wanted to eat people.
At the end of the story, everyone was still immersed in it, and they were all stunned by Tao Wan's question.
"Me! I know! Because something of the same weight can push the ship the same deep! ”
The answer was a thin and small boy, a little shorter than Yin Jiaojiao, with patches on his body, sitting on the root of the wall, looking so clever, I didn't expect to be so clever.
He was right, and Tao Wan took out a piece of candy from his pocket and gave it to him: "That's right, this piece of sugar belongs to you!" ”
"Thank you, Sister Tao." The words of thanks were not as crisp as the answer to the question just now, and he looked like an introverted child, and he was shy to talk to Tao Wan with his head down.
Tao Wan smiled softly at him.
The other children saw it, and they were all very red-eyed, and the next questions were all listened attentively, and they were thinking while listening, Tao Wan took this room of children, but it was not too troublesome.
Five of the sugars were divided, and it was time to get off work at noon.
Tao Wan took the children out, and when the adults returned the tools, she brought her own children back.
Yin Qingbai came down from the mountain, and from afar he saw Tao Wan followed by a small radish head.
He couldn't help laughing, and Shen Tao said: "Brother Bai, you are in love, you are old." ”
What kind of person was Yin Qingbai before, the little girl beat him around, and he didn't even look at it.
How did he meet Tao Wanzhiqing, just like a pug, looking at it from a kilometer away, he laughed like a fool.
"You know the." I don't even have a subject, so I don't deserve to talk to him.
Yin Qingbai walked down the mountain in three steps and two steps, and Shen Tao snorted: "Go down the mountain so fast, and I'm not afraid of breaking my legs." ”
Tao Wan led a few little girls to walk in front, and everyone was quiet.
Those who got the candy carefully held their own sugar, and if they didn't get it, they drooled at other people's sugar.
"Give it to me!"
There was a sound of quarreling behind him, and Tao Wan looked back, and the little boy who was the first to answer the question was pushed to the ground.
"You've got two, what's wrong with giving me one?!"
The child, who was impolite and dirty at first, stuck his waist and held two pieces of white rabbit toffee in his hand, very proud.
"Li Fugui, are you ashamed, you still rob other people's sugar!" Immediately there was a child next to him.
"What are you doing?" Tao Wan walked over, "Your name is Li Fugui, right?" Give the sugar back! ”
Li Fugui hid the candy behind him, stepped away and ran away.
The child who was robbed of sugar sat on the snow and wiped his tears, Tao Wan quickly pulled the child up: "Don't cry, don't cry, Sister Tao still has it." ”
This child is too thin, it may be that Yin Jiaojiao was well raised, and it was soft and warm when she picked it up, but this little boy Tao Wan reached out and grabbed it, it was full of bones.
"Little rabbit, do you dare to run away after doing something bad?"
Li Fugui's direction of running was not coincidental, and he was picked up by Yin Qingbai who came over with one hand, and it was useless to let him wave his limbs in the air.
Tao Wan looked at this kid and got angry: "Give him back the sugar!" He turned his head and asked, "Tell Sister Xiao Tao, what is your name?" ”
"I—My name is Li Yang."
Li Yang?!
Tao's memories of his life come back at night.
This kid has a rough life, his mother is unmarried and pregnant, and his father is the first batch of educated youths to come, and then he said goodbye without saying goodbye, and no one knows where he went.
He is now living with his mother and living in his grandmother's house, no wonder he was raised to be like this, it turned out to be under the fence.
But his father actually went to the country to do weapons research, and he belonged to a secret unit, and in the past five years, it has been like evaporating from the world to the outside world.
However, Tao Wan counted, Li Yang and his father are about to come to find the child.
I remember that in his last life, his father came to Yinjiazhuang and made a good fuss.
