Red Plum Villa - Chapter 38
"Would you like to hear about me?" the old man asked suddenly,
"Think," Piao's curiosity was originally a little big,
"But if you don't want to say it, it's nothing, we're still drinking," Piao Xi suddenly realized that he seemed to be a little rude, how could there be such a thing.
"I have lived in this deep mountain since I was a child, I was an orphan, it was a hunter who saved me, and then I followed him to hunt and live, and then when I was about your age, I became a father, but I have no children," Piao Fu heard this sentence and was suddenly startled,
"So, what about Xiaoxue?" asked Piaofu,
"Xiaoxue was brought back from outside, I have no children, but I have always regarded Xiaoxue as my granddaughter, but," the old man said in the end, he couldn't go on, and his body trembled a little.
Piao Fu was also angry in his heart for a while with a bad premonition, but Piao Fu didn't ask, because the old man had already continued,
"I'm already an old man in his last years, I have to gamble once," the old man's eyes were already filled with tears,
"So, the person you're betting on is me?"
"Yes, maybe it is the heavens that are watching over me, so that a poor old man like me can walk with peace of mind," the old man said.
"You ......" Piao Fu was speechless, but what else could he say at this time,
"I don't have much time left, at most a month, so I must be able to find someone who can take care of Xiaoxue for the rest of my life, I don't want such a cute little girl to ...... like this," the old man said,
"Well, no, as long as I finish this matter, then I'll come back and take you out of the old age," Piao Fu suddenly thought that he still had some things to deal with here,
The old man was obviously stunned for a moment, "This is the jade pendant that my mother gave me, you take it first, I will come back, but the things I have to deal with are not very safe, I can't let Xiaoxue and you take risks with me." "Piao Fu took out the jade pendant from his bosom,
But at the same time, the fluttering is to put his hand on the pulse of the old man,
Piao Xu knew in his heart that the old man in front of him was already riddled with diseases, and Piao Fu fell into the ground, "I ......"
"You still know medical skills, hehe, people will have such a time, but this jade pendant, I can't accept it," the old man didn't accept it, obviously startled by the seemingly expensive jade pendant in front of him. Moreover, it was given to him by his mother, how can this be easy to receive?
"I'm not worried, let you and Xiaoxue go with me," Piao Fu said honestly,
"Well, okay," the old man's mood was obviously a little lonely,
"Saving grace, how could I forget, what I have to do is very dangerous, don't worry, I'm back, I'm definitely back," of course, Piao Fu knew what the old man was worried about, but ......
After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, the old man was ready to quit.
Piao Fu stayed in the old man's house for two whole days, and in these two days, Piao Fu's injuries have improved somewhat.
Two days later, the frostbite on Piaoxi's body has all healed, the layer of gauze on his body has been removed, and there are no scars left on his body, although Piaoxu can now get out of bed and walk, but his face is still pale, after all, his injuries are still very serious,
Piao Xu found that there were so many families in the deep mountains where he was, and there was only one big kang in this old man's home, and he gave it to Piao Fu to recuperate, while the old man and Xiaoxue were sleeping outside,
"Are you up?" the old man cared about the fluttering,
"Yes, brother, shouldn't you rest more?" Xiaoxue also asked Piaofu,
"Hehe, I've practiced some martial arts, and my body is pretty good," Piao Fu said with a smile, I don't know if the snow didn't melt a few days ago or it has snowed heavily recently, the entire mountain has been covered with thick snow, and it's white.
"Hehe, that's right, more activity under the kang is also a kind of physical recovery. The old man smiled and said,
Fluttering didn't answer anything. Just smiled and nodded.
After the heavy snowfall, the sky was quite refreshing, without any clouds, and the light blue sky brought some comfort to the depressed mood.
There seems to be a dark shadow constantly walking towards the old man's thatched house, it is a figure,
The person who came was also a man in his twilight years, and his face was also full of wrinkles, and it seemed that he was also a hunter in the mountains, and he shouted at the old man from a distance
"Big brother," the old man began.
"Second child, you're here. The old man smiled and said to the old man who came.
"Well, big brother, there are some things I want to come over and hear your opinion. The second said,
"Come into the house," said the old man.
"Okay," the second child just entered the door and saw Xiaoxue who was playing on the side,
"Xue'er, look, what delicious things the second grandfather brought you. The second child took out some candy from his arms like a trick.
"Ah, it's candy, thank you, second grandfather. Xue'er said very happily, and then saw a pale face, "Are you the kid that my eldest brother brought back?"
"Yes, senior," Piao Fu replied to the second child with a smile.
"Hehe, good boy," said the second with a smile, and patted Piaofu's shoulder with his rough hands, but when it came down, it was extremely light.
"Say anything," said the Boss.
"Yes, this. When the second child said, he also glanced at the fluttering,
"It's okay, just say it," said the boss, too,
"Well, some people have come to the village recently, it seems that they are looking for this child, but they have all been sent away by us, and there are more and more people coming recently, big brother, it seems that they are about to find here, what do you say about this?"
"Well, it's okay, they shouldn't have come over so soon," the boss said after a moment's thought,
"It's better not to come," although the second child didn't say anything, but his eyes couldn't move to look at the fluttering,
"Senior, I don't know what kind of person is coming to me?" Piao Xu said with a smile, although he was smiling, but he smiled bitterly, but he hoped that the people who came to find him were not those people, if it was really those people, Piao Xu would turn around and leave, and leave immediately, no matter what, he couldn't affect others, and he couldn't use the true yuan now, so he could only go now.
