Chapter 11: Walking
"Xiao Jiu, get up!"
The next day, before dawn, Liu Yuanzu's voice sounded outside.
Liu Bajiu took his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that it was only five o'clock, but fortunately he slept at less than ten o'clock yesterday.
Adults only need to sleep seven or eight hours a day at most, except for an hour of napping, and sleep six or seven hours at night, and now they are almost awake.
"Wait a minute, I'll come out when I'm ready!" Liu Bajiu agreed, got up and went to freshen up.
Hearing the old man's voice, Liu Xingguo and Wang Lan also hurriedly got up and came out to greet the old man and Liu Yunchuan, who drove over, into the house to sit.
"You go back first, just wait for me to walk with you!" The old man instructed Liu Yunchuan before getting out of the car with two bamboo canes.
"I'll send you off, it's such a long way, even Jiubagong is afraid that he hasn't walked for many years, and he may not be able to walk that far, didn't they all come back by tricycle yesterday?" Liu Yunchuan persuaded.
"I don't need to!" The old man shook his head and said: "Lao Tzu's round is not walking to walk back, as for you, you need to exercise, walking is the best way to exercise, don't you see that I brought two bamboo canes!" β
"Okay, then I'll go back first!" Liu Yunchuan nodded.
Although Liu Yuanzu is 100 years old, he has always been very independent. Li, not only live alone, but even laundry and cooking do not pretend to others, every time I rush to set up a stall, I also walk by myself.
"Dad, sit down for a while, I'll make you breakfast, what do you want to eat?" Wang Lan asked very earnestly.
The old man really has nothing to say to their family, not only does he often give money to subsidize the family, but he never shirks when he comes to the door when something happens.
And he never asks for anything in return, so it's rare to get on the door once, so he naturally has to be entertained.
Liu Xingguo stepped forward to support the old man and said, "Let's boil two eggs for you, there are goose eggs too!" β
"No, I'll just sit for a while, you two go and rest by yourself, wait for me to take Xiao Jiu to eat bean curd rice on the street, I'm not happy to eat eggs, I'm choking!" The old man said and sat on the chair with Liu Xingguo's support!
Liu Xingguo and his family naturally won't go back to rest, since the old man doesn't eat, the two of them sit down to talk to the old man, mainly to talk about what Liu Bajiu will do in the future.
There are a lot of resources in the big house, and if there is an old man who speaks, as long as Liu Bajiu is willing to lower his profile, or as long as he is not so upright, he is not afraid of doing things that do not make money.
The old man squinted at Liu Xingguo and said, "You don't worry so much, Xiao Jiu is thirty or forty years old, doesn't he know what he should do?"
You really want to make money, and you don't know if you can go to your eldest brother for an errand to do? β
Liu Xingguo pursed his lips and stopped talking, if he could lower his head, he would have made a fortune a long time ago, so why would he have to wait until now?
That is, Wang Lan blew a lot of pillow wind, and today Liu Xingguo mentioned these things to the old man, otherwise he would not have opened this mouth in front of the old man, and it was not that the family could not open the pot.
Next, let Wang Lan pinch Liu Xingguo, no matter how hard he tried, Liu Xingguo didn't speak, and the old man sat on the chair with an old god.
Wang Lan couldn't help sighing, sighing in her heart that the family was all temperamental, not only was her man stubborn, but her son could like a woman for twenty years without looking back, and his temper was even more stubborn.
After a while, Liu Bajiu packed up and walked out, looked at the three people who didn't speak, and asked the old man, "This is leaving?" β
"Let's go, it's just right to eat bean curd rice on the street!"
The old man got up with a bamboo cane, Liu Bajiu hurriedly stepped forward to help him, although the old man was in good health, but in fact, everyone was afraid that he would have an accident.
Having such an old birthday star in the family is actually very beneficial, even if it is a big house, the old man needs to come forward from time to time.
There are many relationships in the county and city, and Uncle Liu Bajiu may not be able to do it in person, but as long as the old man comes to the door, many problems can be solved.
At the age of the old man, when he sat there, everyone was a junior, and they all had to be greeted with a smile.
Although it is no longer as feudal as in ancient times, things such as respect for the elderly and filial piety are still universal values, and the more the upper echelons of society value them.
So some people will give face to the old man even if they don't give face to Uncle Liu Bajiu.
After getting up, the old man handed Liu Bajiu a bamboo cane and said: "Take it, yesterday I saw your footsteps floating, I think it was a lack of exercise, let's walk to the field, walk a few more days to have strength in the legs and feet, people also have spirit, walking is the easiest exercise, and the exercise effect is very good!" β
Liu Bajiu took the bamboo cane with a strange expression, and sighed in his heart: I didn't expect that I had already used a bamboo cane in my thirties!
Liu Xingguo and Wang Lan sent the two downhill before going back to rest.
After walking for more than a mile, Liu Bajiu didn't feel tired, and he didn't even sweat, but the old man's breath was a little heavier, but it was okay.
After walking for three miles, the two of them found a stone slope to sit down and rest, looking at Liu Bajiu, whose face was not red and out of breath, the old man asked with some curiosity: "It's strange, I saw that you were still overindulged yesterday, why did your body get better today?" β
Liu Bajiu understands that it should be the relationship between the improvement of the physique after the upgrade in the game, but this matter naturally cannot be said.
Liu Bajiu thought for a while and said with a smile: "I didn't sleep well on the train, and I got motion sickness when I took the bus, and I didn't have much appetite, so my body looked a little weak, and I recovered after a good night's sleep yesterday." β
The old man obviously didn't believe Liu Bajiu's words, after all, he believed in his eyes more, but the old man didn't say much, "Let's go when you're almost done!" β
When I came to the street, the sky was just getting bright, and most of the people who set up the stalls had already come, and they were busy sorting out the things they wanted to sell, and those who had finished them were sitting aside to rest.
So there was no shouting.
Although the transportation is convenient now, the people who generally set up stalls have their own motorcycles and tricycles, and there is no longer a need to transport things with effort, but the goods always need to be packed and carried.
Setting up a stall is actually not easy.
Of course, the old man's stall is very relaxed, he has two sets of clothes, one for the house and one on the street, and there are not many things.
The two walked through an old stone street and came to an old faΓ§ade with an all-wooden structure.
This is a teahouse, although it is just dawn, but it is already full of people, and even a few tables have been drunk in the morning.
"Grandpa is here, come into the back room and sit down, the mash is already hot for you!" A half-hundred-year-old man came over and shouted to the old man very affectionately.
"Seventh brother, business is booming!" Liu Bajiu said with a smile!
