Chapter 61: The Divine Calling
In the kitchen, Lu Ping'an carefully helped stir the cabbage in the water and clean the dirt on it.
The weather in October is not very cold, but it is not hot either.
The water in the basin for washing vegetables is quite cold, and after washing for a long time, Lu Ping'an's little hands will inevitably turn a little white.
He couldn't help but pull his hand away from the water, and as he puffed in his mouth, he glanced out the door from time to time.
When he was in the house just now, Grandma Lin asked him and Yan Hao to come to the kitchen to help.
He didn't care about himself, but he obviously felt that Yan Hao was unhappy.
After the two came to the kitchen, Yan Hao silently lowered his head and worked, and it was not until Lin Jiajun next to him left that he raised his head and said that he would leave for a while.
Hmm, it's been almost half an hour since I left, why haven't you come back yet?
Lu Ping'an craned his neck and looked out the door.
After looking at the territory for a long time, he didn't look forward to Yan Hao's figure, but waited for Lin Xiujuan, who was full of haze.
He had never seen Grandma Lin like this, so he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and instinctively took a step back in his heart.
Lin Xiujuan noticed Lu Ping'an's reaction, suppressed the anger in her heart, and instead smiled skillfully, prevaricated in a few words, and then took Lu Ping'an's little hand again and took him to the activity room for lunch.
This is her beckoning cat, and she has no choice but to snub the other party.
Lu Ping'an returned to the team of his friends in a daze.
He looked left and right for a long time, but he didn't find Yan Hao's figure in the crowd, and his heart suddenly chuckled.
"Where's Brother Yan Hao?" he secretly glanced at Lin Xiujuan in the distance and asked the child next to him in a whisper.
"I was carried to the backyard by my lazy uncle. ”
Lu Ping'an's eyes widened: "Why?"
In the Luoshan Orphanage, being taken to the backyard is equivalent to making a mistake and being punished.
"It seems to be rude to my uncle and aunt, I don't know, anyway, Grandma Lin is very angry. The child next to him tilted his head, "I've never seen Grandma Lin so angry, I wanted to help, but I was afraid to speak." ”
Lu Ping'an stopped talking.
He sat on the bench, pursed his lips, his eyes roamed back and forth on Lin Xiujuan, and finally made up his mind to slip off the bench and slip into the backyard.
The children around are busy eating, and Lin Xiujuan is also showing her kind side as usual.
No one deliberately paid attention to Lu Ping'an.
He managed to make it to the backyard.
The backyard of the Luoshan Orphanage is not large, and it is not filled with fruits and vegetables like the rest of the orphanages, with toys such as slides.
Usually, the Lin family doesn't take care of it, and the children water it themselves.
At this moment, it is the gathering of the harvest, and all kinds of melons, fruits and seedlings occupy the field of vision.
Faintly, someone's voice came from it.
"Hey, is it Ma Ye?"
"Eh, it's me, Jiajun. ”
"We don't have anything good, but yours is good. ”
"That's right, we have a boy here, it's very noisy, it affects the normal operation of our orphanage, I want to ask you over there, are you willing to take over?"
"Don't worry, no problem! This boy is healthy, and not only that, but he is also very handsome. ”
"I didn't lie to you, otherwise how could I have said that your good deeds have come?"
"He does have shortcomings, but it certainly has no impact on your business, to put it bluntly, he has an awkward personality, and almost stabbed all the things in our orphanage, if it weren't for our aunt's cleverness, I'm afraid it would not lead to a monstrous disaster, which is why we are in a hurry to deal with it." ”
"You agreed to accept someone? ”
"Hehe, we don't care if he can find a good family, the only hope is that he goes as far as possible. ”
"Well, there are a lot of people in the mountains, okay. ”
"Then when are you coming to pick up the goods?Tomorrow, okay, then I'll be ready tonight, speaking of which, we haven't been in touch for a long time, and I don't know ...... you."
Lin Jiajun was still catching up with the person on the other end of the call, and Lu Ping'an quietly leaned behind the door of the backyard entrance.
Listening to this conversation, he was a little foggy, and only understood one thing, that is, Brother Yan Hao might have to be sent away!
Logically speaking, this is a good thing.
After all, Grandma Lin often said that when it comes to a new home, new fathers and new mothers will be very good to themselves, but ......
Lu Ping'an felt a little uneasy for some reason.
He clenched his fists, walked into the backyard on tiptoe, quietly picked up the branches of the fruit trees, and finally found Yan Hao lying on the ground.
The other party's nose and face were swollen, obviously he was beaten violently, his breathing was weak and weak, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, as if he had suffered a lot of trauma.
Lu Ping'an's mouth opened wide and he was completely silent, he never thought that there would be such a picture.
Yan Hao found a familiar figure dangling in front of him.
He forcibly opened his eyes that were swollen like peaches, and found that the person who came was Lu Ping'an, his pupils immediately shrank suddenly, and he immediately reached out to cover the other party's mouth, and said in an inaudible voice: "Why are you here!
Lu Ping'an's eyes were red, and he wanted to break the hands that were covering his mouth, and let out a low whimper.
Yan Hao secretly said that it was not good.
Sure enough, Lin Jiajun's voice came over immediately.
"Hum chirp, what's the matter, be quiet for me!" Lin Jiajun thought that Yan Hao couldn't stand the beating, so he was sobbing quietly, and when he got closer, he was surprised to find that it was Lu Ping'an who made the sound.
Obediently, the golden hen that lays eggs has found the machete that fell on her neck, and this is in trouble.
Lin Jiajun didn't know how to start.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps not far away, and when he looked up, he found that it was Lin Xiujuan who had arrived anxiously.
He swallowed: "This ...... What should I do?"
Looking at Yan Hao, who was lying on the ground covered in scars, and then at Lu Ping'an, who was frightened and angry in his eyes, Lin Xiujuan, who was originally in a hurry, calmed down.
She sighed helplessly, stepped forward, and gently touched Lu Ping'an's little head, and said in a regretful tone: "Let's pack it up for Ma Laohan together." ”
Lin Jiajun was stunned: "This ...... Don't we still count on him...... What's that?"
"Idiot!" Lin Xiujuan glanced at the other party coldly, "In the past few months, there have been a lot of people who have donated surgery fees, and some people have even written to ask about his situation, if we continue to be greedy, the gains will outweigh the losses, it is better to take this opportunity to send the hidden dangers away, and then go back and find a reason to make up casually to plug this exposed gap." ”
When Lin Jiajun heard this, the scene of Lu Ping'an smiling and massaging his back inexplicably appeared in his mind.
He wanted to say something more, but in the end he just licked his lips.
After looking down at Lu Ping'an, he looked away.
Lying on the ground, Yan Hao listened to the conversation between the two, and a wave of anger surged in his heart.
He used all his strength to keep struggling, but in exchange for Lin Jiajun's fierce kick in the abdomen.
His whole body suddenly bent into a shrimp, and tears of reason flowed uncontrollably due to the severe pain, and his emotions were drowned out by extreme resentment and despair.
"You want to protect them?"
Suddenly, such a sentence sounded in Yan Hao's mind.
After the words fell, the heavens and the earth were silent, and the flowing clouds and breeze seemed to stop instantly.
His consciousness quickly detached, and he quickly floated upward, all the way through the unknown long distance, to a majestic statue of black mist and glimmer of light.
