Chapter 12 Orphan Girls
This decision did not come as a surprise.
It's just that there is more envy and even jealousy in his eyes when he looks at Wei Yu.
After all, becoming an executioner means officially becoming the middle level of the Changlong Dart Bureau, not only the monthly salary is much more generous than the miscellaneous servants, but the key is to get dividends every time you dart.
After announcing these things, Meng Lei waved his hand to let everyone disperse, and then led Wei Yu away.
Tan Dong stepped forward and said with a sour taste: "Yes, this person can be regarded as a step to the sky." ”
Zhao Ya smiled, "That's what people deserve, you should also step up your practice and strive for the completion of bone refining as soon as possible." ”
"Me? Forget it, I'm not that material, and besides, it's tiring to practice martial arts, how can it be fun to chat with the young ladies in the hook bar. ”
"Then what are you talking about?"
"Haven't I felt wronged for you?" Speaking of this, Tan Dong's expression became serious.
"I firmly believe that your talent is not weaker than him at all, but it is because your family conditions are not good and the foundation laid is too poor, so you have been surpassed by this Wei Yu, so I feel unfair for you."
Zhao Ya was stunned, and then smiled and hugged his fists, "Then thank you for your unevenness." ”
After a busy day's work, Zhao Ya declined Tan Dong's invitation to listen to the song and relax, and hurriedly came to Tang Zui'er's house.
At this time, the old lady's condition was worse than during the day, and she was more awake during the day, but at night she did not open her eyes at all.
Zhao Ya knew that this was a sign that the deadline was approaching.
Tang Zui'er had already panicked, and she didn't know what to do except cry.
Or Zhao Ya went to the street to smash open the door of the shroud shop, bought shrouds and other things, and then asked Tang Zui'er to put on the old lady.
When she was dressed, the old lady miraculously sat up, and her face was rosy.
Tang Zui'er was very happy, and thought that her grandmother was saved.
But Zhao Ya knew that this was just a return to the light.
Really.
The old lady touched Tang Zui'er's head.
"Silly girl, listen to your little cliff brother in the future."
Tang Zui'er also sensed that something was wrong, and nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes.
The old lady lay on her back on the bed and cried out, "Son! ”
Then he died.
Tang Zui'er threw herself on the old lady's corpse and cried bitterly.
Zhao Ya also felt that his eyes were sour, knelt down and kowtowed to the old lady, and then pulled up Tang Zui'er, who was crying to death, and began to do the funeral.
Naturally, the funeral of a poor family cannot be very grand.
With the help of all the neighbors, a thin coffin put the old lady into the ground.
Tang Zui'er was dressed in heavy filial piety and knelt in front of the grave and cried non-stop.
In the distance, the neighbors whispered to each other.
"This little girl of the Tang family is really getting more and more beautiful."
"Haven't you heard that you want to be filial piety?"
"Alas, if the old lady dies, this little girl will become an orphan."
"Hey, I remember that the grandson of the old Zhao family at the entrance of the alley should also marry a daughter-in-law, why don't you match this little girl?"
"Pull it down, who doesn't know that his grandson is a fool?"
"What's wrong with the fool, that old Zhao family runs a grocery store and has a solid family background, this little girl will definitely not suffer if she marries, this can be regarded as a ...... of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue."
"Shh
The woman was talking vigorously when someone suddenly stopped her and pointed quietly.
The woman looked up and saw Zhao Ya walking to the side of the grave, and immediately closed her mouth and didn't dare to speak.
Today's Zhao Ya has become taller and taller after half a year of cultivation, and his gestures are full of might.
In addition, these people all heard that Zhao Ya mixed well in the Changlong Dart Bureau and learned a good kung fu, so when they saw him come forward, these women were all too frightened to say anything.
Zhao Ya had actually heard the discussions of these long-tongued women a long time ago, but he was too lazy to deal with them.
It wasn't until they talked more and more that they didn't come forward.
After shocking these people, Zhao Ya came to Tang Zui'er's side and patted her lightly on the shoulder.
"Stop crying, come home with me."
Tang Zui'er stopped her grief and looked at Zhao Ya with teary eyes.
"The old lady is gone, and I don't feel at ease if you live alone, move to me."
Tang Zui'er's face was visibly red, but she still nodded obediently and responded imperceptibly.
"Hmm!"
In this way, Tang Zui'er packed up his things and moved to Zhao Ya's house on the same day.
In this regard, the surrounding neighbors not only did not criticize, but unanimously believed that Zhao Ya was doing good deeds.
"You'll sleep here from now on."
Zhao Ya cleaned up the bed in the bedroom and said to Tang Zui'er.
Tang Zui'er's face was as red as fire, and she nodded a little flusteredly.
Then Zhao Ya moved his futon to the outhouse and temporarily set up a bed.
Tang Zui'er didn't know why.
"In the future, you sleep inside, and I sleep outside." Zhao Ya's answer was very simple.
Tang Zui'er's mood was a little complicated when she heard this, she felt a sense of relief, but she was also faintly a little lost.
Zhao Ya didn't care about those.
"There is rice in the rice bowl, and the meat is in the basket hanging from the beams of the house, you cook and eat it yourself when I am not at home, don't go out if you have nothing to do, if you are bored, you can clean it, tell me what you want to buy, I'll buy it for you, understand?"
"Uh-huh!" Tang Zui'er nodded.
"Alright, that's about it."
Zhao Ya didn't know how to get along with girls, he took Tang Zui'er in because he agreed to her grandmother's request before she died.
As for the rest, he really hadn't thought about it.
Zhao Ya took out the pot and prepared to wash rice for cooking.
When Tang Zui'er saw it, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it.
"Brother Xiaoya, I'll come."
"Uh, okay."
"How much rice do you want? Half a basin? ”
"Three pots!"
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's okay!"
When Zhao Ya ate a pot full of rice and two large plates of stew, Tang Zui'er's eyes were simply shocked when he looked at him.
"Look at what I'm doing, hurry up and eat, and remember to brush the bowl after eating."
"Oh, good!"
Zhao Ya came to the courtyard and began to practice every day.
Don't look at him eating so much, but now with the increase in the progress of stomach unlocking, Zhao Ya's digestion ability can be called terrifying.
A pot full of rice and two large plates of stewed meat were crushed and absorbed as soon as they were swallowed.
Zhao Ya is also a little worried about this, now that he can eat it like this, wouldn't he be an adult-shaped rice bucket after it is completely unlocked?
Looks like I'm going to have to figure out a way to get something like earthworm jerky.
Ordinary food is increasingly unable to meet Zhao Ya's needs.
At this time, after Tang Zui'er finished eating his meal, he began to brush the pot and wash the dishes.
In the past, Zhao Ya cooked by himself, although he would clean up after eating, but he was not so careful after all.
Tang Zui'er washed all the remaining stains on the side of the stove and pan.
While cleaning up, Tang Zui'er looked at Zhao Ya, who was boxing in the courtyard, and his heart was suddenly full of warmth and stability.
In this world, having someone to rely on is already a luxury for many people.
