Chapter 18: Go to the city to meet Mom and Dad

"I don't want to argue with you about right or wrong. There is no right or wrong in most things in the world, only positions! ”

"You always say that I am evading responsibility, and I am doing this precisely to be responsible for myself!"

"Aren't you and me grasshoppers on the same rope? Why do you have to be against me? ”

The person on the other end of the phone must not be able to argue with the magician, and judging by his sharp teeth, he can be a debater. If there really is such a profession in this world.

The sharp-tongued magician soon met Waterloo, he stopped talking, he became slurking, he sighed and lowered his voice.

"Don't cry, don't cry...... I...... I can't bear to let you cry like this......"

"Of course I love you, and I love the kids...... I'll work hard to earn money...... Just wanted to change the format......"

The little brother and sister didn't mean to eavesdrop, but they were still attracted by the magician's rich and varied language. In their little heads, they crackled and reasoned quickly.

"He must have been on the phone with his wife, who wouldn't allow him to be a magician, but he had to be a magician. He must be a magician who can't earn enough money to support his family. Archie said into his sister's ear.

Ah Qiao doesn't see it that way. Ah Qiao didn't believe that he was really a magician.

A magician is supposed to practice all kinds of hand-related skills, but she has seen him bury his head in a book many times.

Perhaps, his dream is to be a book reviewer – to read a lot of books and then comment on them.

Ah Qiao shrugged her shoulders - to be honest, she didn't approve of him being a book reviewer either.

The joy of reading a book is that you have the freedom to understand it. At the age of 3, at the age of 30, at the age of 300, you will have different opinions on the same book, so what does it matter, you can always get happiness from the same book.

Although the details of happiness are different, happiness is happiness.

She wouldn't read a book of reviews anyway.

The magician begins with a menacing phone call and ends with his whispered comfort.

Before Archie could call the magician, the magician's call came again.

This time, he rarely spoke, only jumped out stupidly, "Really? It's true? It's true? ”。 He looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing in circles.

When I was turning around, I found two little brothers and sisters not far behind me.

The little brother and sister tilted their heads in one direction, looking at the magician with the same angle and expression, with a faint worry in their eyes.

They even began to suspect that there was no one on the other end of the phone all along. The phone is just a prop. Magicians can justifiably go crazy with it.

The son of Xu Sanye's family in the crescent moon village is a madman, always knocking people with stones, and was locked up in a side house by Xu Sanye. Every time his son "escapes from prison", it is a major event in the village.

The magician put away his 12 teeth and laughed, trying to look more elegant in front of the little siblings. After asking a few more "true" questions, he hung up.

Great joy is hidden in the eyes of the magician.

He stepped forward quickly, hugged Ah Qiao, pinched her under her armpits, lifted her high, and turned around happily twice. It seems that he is also planning to do the same, lifting Archie up in a circle.

However, he soon gave up.

Although the ten-year-old Archie looks thin, he is actually fifty or sixty pounds.

"My grandma wants to invite you to our house for dinner." Archie said.

"For dinner, there was fried bacon, and sauerkraut fish." Ah Qiao added.

"Really? I'm drooling! The magician laughed.

I thought that the magician should be polite, who knew that he would lift his feet and leave.

For this dinner, Duoduo and her grandparents next door were also invited.

The atmosphere is lively like the New Year.

After eating, Grandma Duoduo helped wash the dishes, chopsticks and pots.

Everything was packed up, and it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

After the magician left, Duoduo was also taken home by her grandfather.

Archie and Ah Qiao ate to their heart's content, and after brushing their teeth, they lay down on the bed contentedly and soon fell asleep.

Grandma took out a cloth bag from the depths of the cabinet, took out a note from it, spread it out, and it was a string of numbers. 11 digits. It should be a phone number.

She carefully slipped the piece of paper with the phone number on it into her pocket. Closing the doors together, I stepped over the fence and went to Duoduo's house next door.

She wants to borrow Grandpa Duoduo's phone and call the phone number on the paper.

There is no doubt that the phone number on the paper belongs to Archie and Ah Qiao's father.

Grandpa Duoduo helped Grandma Archie dial the phone, and after the phone rang seven or eight times, a familiar "Hey" came from the receiver.

"Leather Boy! I'm Mom! ”

Grandma Archie told her son on the phone about her illness and hospitalization, about the helplessness of the little brother and sister, about the children who hadn't seen their parents for a long time, and about the summer vacation that would come next week.

"Mom, thank you for your hard work."

"Mom is not afraid of hard work. Mom just feels sorry for the two little dolls. ”

"Or ...... Let them come to Yunhai City for the summer vacation? ”

Grandma Archie was so happy that she didn't hear the reluctant tone of her son's inquiry.

Grandma Archie has never traveled far from home, and for most of her life, she has not even been out of the village's sphere of activity. Grandma herself has never been far away, so naturally she can't be expected to send her two children over.

"Can you take the time to come back and pick them up?"

"No, I can't. It takes several days to go back and forth, and you have to ask for leave back and forth, buy tickets, deduct wages, and toss for half a month in vain, which is not cost-effective! ”

When the planning was at an impasse, Grandma Duoduo suddenly said, "Doesn't Yazai live in Yunhai City?" Ask Ya Tsai when he will go back and bring the two children over. ”

Grandma Archie slapped her thigh, that's the truth!

"Who's Tooth Boy? Is it reliable? Don't sell my son halfway. ”

Grandma Archie was swooped. She remembered Archie's height of almost 1.5 meters and brute strength, and thought of Toothboy's legs as thin as two sticks...... Toothboy is not necessarily more brute force than Archie.

"Your sons are half the size of a child. Half-sized, eat poor old man. Whoever raises him suffers, and whoever wants him. That's it. Grandma made a decision, and by the way, she told her son about the origin of Yazai and Crescent Village.

Because of the simplicity of the heart, it is especially trusted.

Grandma Archie's son, Pizai, couldn't say anything to refute it, but it was obvious that he was reluctant the more he went to the back. No matter how sluggish Grandma Archie was, she felt the reluctance.

However, she attributed it to her son's distrust of Yazai.

The son expressed his dissatisfaction because he was suspicious that Yazai was incompetent, instead of refusing to take the two children over. This is grandma's interpretation.

As it turned out, Grandma Archie had a complete high opinion of her son.

Love is all blind.

Mother's love is even more so.

But that's all for later.

"By the way, what about Mother Archie? Isn't she with you? Why didn't you hear her? Grandma asked her son.
