Volume 1 Reminiscences of a Boy's Heart Chapter 24 The First Sight of a Fairy (2)
The little girl looked at her in a daze, and after a while, she asked shyly, "Sister, are you a fairy?"
The woman pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this, took out a white plain from her arms, gently wiped the blood from the corner of the little girl's mouth, and said with a smile: "Why does the little sister think that the sister is a fairy?"
The little girl replied crisply: "Because my sister is very beautiful, I heard that fairies are very beautiful sisters." ”
A hint of softness flashed in the woman's eyes, and she stroked her hair and said, "Sister is not a fairy, sister is the same as you." As she spoke, she glanced at the middle-aged stall owner who was struggling to stand up, and asked, "Why did that person beat you?"
The little girl was about to speak, and the middle-aged stall owner roared angrily: "Where did the stinky woman come from, dare to meddle with Lao Tzu's affairs?"
He finally struggled to his feet, and watched as the woman's eyes were about to burst into flames.
"Don't be afraid, my sister is in charge of you!"
Feeling that the little girl was a little afraid, a fierce color shot out of the woman's eyes, but she quickly hid it and continued to comfort her softly.
As for the anger of the middle-aged stall owner, she completely ignored it.
The little girl bowed her head a little shyly and said, "Because...... Because...... I...... Stealing his steamed buns!"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and asked for some unknown reasons: "Then why did you steal his steamed buns?"
A trace of mist appeared in the little girl's eyes, and she choked up: "Give food to my father-in-law, he has not eaten for several days, and he is about to starve to death." ”
The woman was stunned again, her nose was sore, no wonder she would rather be beaten herself before, but also protect the steamed bun in her hand.
No wonder, maybe in the eyes of others, they are just two steamed buns, but in the little girl's heart, they are a life for her father-in-law.
"You stinky......"
The middle-aged stall owner saw that the woman ignored him, walked over in three steps and two steps, and just wanted to shout something, but before he finished speaking, he saw the woman wave his sleeve casually, and he flew out again, and once again had an intimate contact with the wall of the alley.
"Ahh
"Click!"
A pig-killing scream followed, accompanied by the sound of bones shattering.
The middle-aged stall owner who fell to the ground felt that his right arm had lost sensation, and only let out a miserable scream, and before he could carefully observe what the situation was, it was a flower in front of him, like something lightning treasure flashing by.
It turned out that the woman had come to him at some point.
"Smack!"
The woman shook her hand, slapped the middle-aged stall owner in the face, slapped him to the ground, and then stared at him with a cold face, and said, "You'd better clean my mouth, otherwise I won't mind cutting it for you." ”
Looking at her frosty face, the middle-aged stall owner was full of excitement, and the woman suddenly had a feeling of suffocation when he looked at him, and his arm didn't feel so painful at the moment, and he hurriedly stretched out his only remaining left hand to cover his mouth.
"Woo...... Woohoo......"
looked at the woman with a pleading face, for fear that the woman would really cut her mouth.
Where is there still the arrogant appearance before.
Seeing his appearance, a trace of disgust flashed in the woman's eyes, and she said sharply: "If I meet you again next time to bully the weak, beware that I will kill you!"
The middle-aged stall owner said tremblingly: "Thank you for sparing the woman's life, the little one will never dare anymore, never again." ”
"Get out!"
The woman glared at him, and then stopped looking at him, for a man like him would dirty his hands if he killed him.
"It's... Be... The little ones are going to roll right away... Get out right away..."
The middle-aged stall owner nodded in response as if he had been amnestied.
After speaking, he really held his right hand, which had been pulled down by deafness, with his left hand, and rolled towards the steamed bun stand.
"Poof!"
The little girl couldn't help but laugh out loud when she looked at his embarrassed appearance.
The woman turned her head to look at her, and her face, which was originally covered with frost, instantly changed to a smile like a spring breeze, and said, "Little sister, let's go and see your father-in-law, okay?"
"Oops, I almost forgot about my father-in-law. ”
The little girl slapped her forehead, exclaimed, and said, "Sister, let's go quickly!"
As he spoke, he took the woman's hand and walked into the alley.
The woman followed the little girl through the narrow alley quickly, and after many corners, the little girl finally stopped and said excitedly: "Sister, we are here!"
When the woman looked up, she couldn't help frowning.
It is a dilapidated house, as if it were a beggar's dwelling. There were no doors or windows, the walls were bare on all sides, dilapidated, and on such a windy day, it stood alone in the depths of the alley.
Walking into the house, the little girl shouted to a figure huddled in the corner of the house with a happy face: "Father-in-law, Su'er has found something to eat." ”
When the man heard the little girl's voice, he turned around slowly, a kind smile appeared on his pale face, and he said intermittently, "Su'er...... Ahem...... Awesome, righteous ...... Father...... Not hungry...... Hungry...... Ahem, ahem, you ...... Ahem...... Myself...... Eat it!"
As he spoke, he coughed, and said one sentence for a long time, constantly gasping for breath between words, as if he was struggling.
The woman noticed that he was an old man over half a hundred years old, and due to long-term malnutrition, he looked skinny and weak, and his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and he looked terminally ill.
At this time, the old man also found her, and struggled to sit up, but his strength was no longer enough to support his weight, and he fell to the ground at once.
The little girl hurriedly ran over to support him, and said with a crying voice: "Father-in-law, you are not in good health, don't move." ”
The old man touched the little girl's little hand dotingly with his shriveled right hand, smiled at her reluctantly, and said, "Su'er...... Rest assured, righteous ...... Stepfather...... It's okay!"
After speaking, he slowly turned his head, looked at the woman and asked weakly, "Su ...... Son, this ...... The...... Is it ......?"
The little girl woke up like a dream, it turned out that her father-in-law wanted to sit up because of her beautiful sister, she quickly explained: "Father-in-law, this is a beautiful sister, she saved me just now." ”
The old man was startled, and hurriedly looked back at her, and said with some reproach: "Just now...... Happen...... Finish...... What? Father-in-law...... No...... Let...... You...... Ten thousand...... It's a small ...... Heart...... Huh?"
"Ahem...... cough cough cough ......"
After saying that, there was another cough.
"I ......"
The little girl is like a child who has made a mistake, with her head down and not knowing how to explain it.
The woman came over and squatted down and said softly, "Don't blame her, she just met a bad guy in order to find you something to eat, and she was beaten for it." ”
Seeing this situation, she seemed to have knocked over the five-flavor bottle, and her heart was very uncomfortable, in such a down-and-out situation, the little girl and his stepfather could never leave each other, which was really admirable. So she deliberately didn't say that the little girl was taught a lesson because he stole other people's food, but told a white lie.
Hearing the woman's words, the little girl glanced at her gratefully, thanks to the beautiful sister who didn't say that she stole other people's things, otherwise it would be inevitable that the father-in-law would not eat what he stole without saying a lesson.
The old man looked at the little girl and asked with a look of self-reproach, "Su'er...... You...... It's okay...... Ahem...... Cough, hurt ...... Wounded ...... Is it heavy......? Still...... Does it hurt?"
The little girl shook her head stubbornly and said, "Su'er is fine, it doesn't hurt, don't worry, father-in-law!"
The old man looked at her for a while, saw her face was blue and swollen, and his heart ached, and he said, "It's all ...... Stepfather...... Incompetence, ahem...... Ahem, it's all ...... This ...... It's a ...... Ahem...... Still...... Still...... Encumber...... Su'er!"
A tear crossed his eyes as he spoke.
When the little girl saw her father-in-law like this, she panicked and cried, and hurriedly wiped away the old man's tears, saying: "The father-in-law doesn't cry, it's Su'er who didn't take care of the father-in-law, don't worry, when Su'er grows up, she will definitely take good care of her father-in-law." ”
"Hey!"
The woman looked at their father and daughter, quietly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and sighed.
The old man smiled forcefully and said, "Father-in-law...... Believe...... Su'er, cough cough cough...... Wait a minute...... Su'er ...... When it's big, it will definitely ...... Very promising...... Breathless, cough cough cough ......"
The little girl suddenly burst into tears and laughed, looked at him and said, "Well, Su'er also believes in herself!"
