Volume 3 Lamentation of the Seven Sons Chapter 217 Wind Chimes
After watching the two of them move away, Li Weiqiang respectfully helped Grandpa Xiao to sit on the mat in front of the boulder.
"Grandpa, how are you doing all these years?" Li Weiqiang asked with concern.
"Eat and sleep, sleep and eat, people, no one lives like this." Grandpa Xiao stroked Li Weiqiang's hand back and forth, and sighed: "But when people are old, they just don't like to look in the mirror to see how good you are as a young man, with fine skin and tender meat." β
Li Weiqiang laughed, but he didn't dare to talk back.
"Your sister's name is Li Xiaohua, right? How's she doing? You should have grown up, right? Don't know if it's beautiful? Grandpa Xiao asked.
Li Weiqiang felt a pain in his heart, but he held back his smile: "Thank you grandpa for your concern, it's just that my sister is no longer there." β
Grandpa Xiao spat and hurriedly shook his head and said, "Bah, how can you say this, spit and foam, it's okay to spit and foam if you say the wrong thing, otherwise it's unlucky." β
The tradition of the older generation, Li Weiqiang can't refute it with reason, his face is weird, the refutation is not, the promise is not, he has grown so big, Li Weiqiang has not spit on the ground......
"Hurry up and ......"
In the face of Grandpa Xiao's hurried but naΓ―ve urging, Li Weiqiang only had a wry smile, he forcibly sipped the saliva in his mouth, bowed his head silently, and let the saliva slide down his lips.
"Hey, that's right, come, lie down with Grandpa Xiao for a while."
Thinking about how strong Li Weiqiang was in the face of the two fierce and vicious people just now, and how obedient he was now, he lay next to Grandpa Xiao, leaning on the peach blossom tree at the entrance of the village, and silently looked at the village.
Half an hour later, Grandpa Xiao fell asleep, Li Weiqiang finally took time, he first returned to the grave, not only cleaned the grave of his parents and put sacrifices, but also put sacrifices in front of the graves of all the villagers who died due to the disaster.
"Father, mother, sister, and all the villagers, I am the last hope of our village, and I, Li Weiqiang, swear here that I will definitely seek justice for you." For the sacrifice of the elders, Li Weiqiang did not dare to get up, but knelt on the ground and poured a jar of liquor in front of the tombstone.
The young man should be high-spirited, but Li Weiqiang is arrogant.
Heaven is unfair, humanity is ruthless, Li Weiqiang just wants to take the right path in the world.
After paying homage to his parents and fellow villagers, Li Weiqiang returned to the village a little gloomily, Grandpa Xiao at the entrance of the village was still sleeping, Li Weiqiang couldn't bear to quarrel with him, just walked quietly.
Although the population is much smaller than before, occasionally a few strangers pass by Li Weiqiang, looking at this outsider with strange eyes.
Li Weiqiang was inexplicably sad in his heart, but he didn't know where the origin was. The original familiar house was renovated, and strangers lived in, and all traces of life seemed to be erased, although I knew that the world was changing, but it was still embarrassing.
A ball rolled at Li Weiqiang's feet, and when he looked up, he saw a little girl of seven or eight years old, who was standing timidly in the distance, not daring to come forward.
Li Weiqiang smiled faintly, picked up the ball under his feet, and gently threw it to the girl.
The girl took it and said with a smile: "Thank you, brother." She turned her head and began to play with two or three other children who were younger than her.
Li Weiqiang sighed, the house where this girl is located belongs to his third uncle, his father's younger brother, and the yard used to be a garden, but now it is ...... The gardens were gone, all turned into a pitch.
Gradually, Li Weiqiang's pace slowed down, he was afraid, he was afraid that when he returned home, a group of strangers would appear in the yard and ask who he was?
If that's the case, Li Weiqiang doesn't know what to do...... He really didn't know......
Thinking of the situation that might be encountered, Li Weiqiang gritted his teeth and turned his head suddenly, he would rather let his previous home exist in his memory forever than encounter such a situation, but before he turned his head and walked a few steps, an old man and a girl came in front of him.
The three of them passed by, Li Weiqiang was sad in his heart, and he didn't pay attention to anything, but the old man turned his head suddenly, stared at Li Weiqiang's back, stretched out his hand and said, "Xiaoqiang...... Are you Xiaoqiang? β
Li Weiqiang's footsteps suddenly froze in place, motionless, he turned his head stiffly, and looked at the old man who passed by just now, his eyes were confused: "You...... You are ......"
"Xiaoqiang, it's really you." The old man rushed forward with great joy, hugged him, and cried bitterly: "I knew you were still alive, I knew you were still alive, seven years...... It's been seven years......"
"Feng Bo?" Li Weiqiang was shocked, and then hugged the old man in front of him in shame, and returned to Peach Blossom Town by himself, but he didn't come to see this uncle who cared about him for the first time.
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back......"
Feng Bo was moved to cry for a while, before wiping his tears, looking at Li Weiqiang excitedly, a pair of calloused hands stroked Li Weiqiang's body back and forth, and said excitedly: "Xiaoqiang has grown up, Feng Bo almost didn't recognize it, he is really tall and handsome." β
When Li Weiqiang left, he was about 1.5 meters, and now he is more than 1.78 meters, and his height completely exceeds Feng Bo.
"Uncle Feng, I'm really sorry, I haven't come back to see you for so many years." Li Weiqiang said apologetically.
Feng Bo waved his hand and said: "Don't say that, I know you must have encountered danger at the beginning, and it has not been easy over the years, right?" β
"Life is easy, but thankfully, I'm always surrounded by a group of friends, and with them, life doesn't seem so painful." Li Weiqiang replied sincerely, and then asked, "How are you old these years?" Are you okay? β
This sentence is actually a knowingly asked, how much Li Weiqiang respects his teacher and the elderly, and he didn't recognize Feng Bo after passing by, no matter how much he knows how vicissitudes Feng Bo's current body has become.
Only fifty or sixty years old, with gray hair and wrinkled old face, it seems that Feng Bo, who had lost all his relatives back then, has been immersed in grief and pain all these years.
"It's okay, it's okay." Facing this junior next door, how could Feng Bo tell the truth, and as soon as he beckoned, he beckoned the little girl who had followed him before: "Ling'er, come and see your Viagra brother, he is what I told you, our original neighbor." β
The little girl with a plainly dressed and naughty face stepped forward, not afraid, but hummed: "Oh, you are the owner of the house that my grandfather always asked me to clean the house, I have been cleaning the house for you for free for several years, and the first time I met my niece and nephew, do you have any gifts?" β
After that, she also rubbed her fingers and raised her eyebrows, full of the image of a little sister.
"Huh?" Li Weiqiang didn't know the little girl in front of him at all, but he knew that she should be Feng Bo's granddaughter Feng Chime, and he hugged her at the beginning, but she seemed to be still in swaddling clothes at that time.
"You naughty!" Feng Bo was furious, and as soon as he pulled out the shoes from his feet, he was about to whip this rude little girl.
The wind chimes screamed strangely, turned around and fled, and looked back with a smile: "Hehe, I can't catch it, grandpa will come to arrest me if he has the ability!" β
The more Feng Bo looked at it, the more angry he became, and he was about to rush out, but he was stopped by Li Weiqiang.
"Hey......" Feng Bo sighed in a low voice, and said helplessly: "My naughty granddaughter, I can't control it now, I'm really embarrassed in front of Xiaoqiang." β
Li Weiqiang smiled lightly and shook his head: "I am an elder, and I should have prepared gifts when I saw my juniors, and Ling'er was right." β
"Don't listen to her, come, go home with Feng Bo, Feng Bo will make your favorite noodles."
Li Weiqiang said with a smile: "Ten years ago, Uncle Feng raised me and protected me. Ten years from now, let me honor you. Today, I cook for Feng Bo, I hope you will always give permission? β
Feng Bo's body trembled, and in an instant, old tears soared, and he hated: "Xiaoqiang, you kid, you have been well-behaved since you were a child, after so many years, you still haven't changed at all, you really haven't changed at all...... But God is unfair to you, unfair to you! β
