Chapter 103: The Down-and-Out Grandfather and Grandson

Back at the dining table, Liu Xing and Village Chief Zhao hadn't chatted a few words.

Zhao Dongkui got up his bicycle and came back, followed by Nie Quan and Nie Sun, who were sitting on a tractor.

The cargo box of the tractor was filled with fir wood, and Zhao Long was also sitting on it.

Seeing that the big guy's food was almost finished, he quickly jumped down from it, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate it.

Nie Zhu and Nie Quan were not polite, and ate food while drinking.

Liu Dongju saw that there were not enough dishes on the table, so he hurriedly handed over the little little thing in his arms to Liu Xing, and then put on an apron and went to the kitchen to get busy.

Xiao Budian hadn't eaten at this time because his mouth was stung by a bee on the ground, and he was very unhappy when he looked at the mess on the table.

Liu Xing saw it, he couldn't help laughing, he picked up a piece of lean meat with chopsticks and sent it to Xiao Budian's mouth: "Eat quickly, just chew slowly." ”

"Uh-huh!" Xiao Bu nodded repeatedly.

After tasting the deliciousness, he quickly broke free from Liu Xing's arms, ran into the kitchen and took out his small rice bowl and spoon, sat down at the wooden table and ate the meal with relish.

As for the stung lip, it seems to have long been forgotten.

"Haha...... This girl. Village Chief Zhao looked at it and smiled.

Children are good, and they forget all the sorrows and pains they have to eat.

Liu Xing also had this smile on his face, and suddenly he quickly got up and looked around: "By the way, where did my sister run away from melon seeds?"

"She went with the beggar who brought food to the roadside. Village Chief Zhao replied with a light sigh.

"Huh?" Liu Xing turned his head to look at the side of the road.

Sure enough, as Village Chief Zhao said, melon seeds and Zhao Jing, two little ghosts of the same age, each holding a big bowl of rice in their hands, walked towards two beggars, an old man and a young man, on the side of the road.

This old man, one young and two beggars.

The old man had gray temples, ragged clothes, and a thick beard.

As for the few ones, they are about ten years old at most, unkempt, thin and small, and they can't see their gender.

Village Chief Zhao slowly spoke at this time: "These two beggars are grandfathers and grandsons, who fled from other places, as for what is difficult, I won't tell them either." ”

"The last time I begged for food, I gave the old beggar a dollar, but he didn't want it, saying that he only begged for food to feed his granddaughter, otherwise he would have committed suicide by throwing himself into the river. Nie Song followed up.

"What a beggar who values love and righteousness. ”

"How could such a good man become so downcast?"

Liu Xing felt very uncomfortable when he heard this, and seeing that there was nothing else to do at night, after telling Zhao Dongkui to entertain the other guests who had eaten, he got up and walked towards the side of the road.

Village Chief Zhao followed behind with a dry cigarette.

On the side of the road.

Liu Xing met the grandfather and grandson.

They are indeed beggars, and it can be seen from the dirty appearance on their bodies that they are definitely not the same as those beggars they met decades later, many of them are pretended.

And they may have slept in the open for too long, and a lot of the skin on their bodies was cracked at this time, and some of them even had blood marks.

The old beggar was probably sick at this time, and he couldn't stand up when he sat on the ground, and there was a strange 'hehe' sound in his throat, and the broad soles of his feet were exposed from the hem of his trousers, and a thick layer of cocoons could be clearly seen on the soles of his feet.

In other words, if he hadn't come all the way from other provinces to this old housing village barefoot, he would definitely not be like this.

As for the little beggar, her eyes were gloomy, her little body was trembling in the breeze, and she couldn't help but swallow hard as she looked at the food in the rice bowl of the melon seeds, especially the big piece of fat.

"Eat what you want! We're not bad people. Village Chief Zhao said softly.

When the little beggar heard this, he didn't take the rice bowl in the hand of the melon seed for the first time, but turned his head to look at the old beggar with expectation in his eyes.

"Thank you!" old village chief. The old beggar struggled to get up, but in the end he couldn't get up.

When the little beggar heard the old beggar say this, he hurriedly took the rice bowl and chopsticks in the hands of the melon seeds, and devoured them in a big gulp.

"Grandpa, give!" Zhao Jing handed the food in his hand to the old beggar.

"Thank you!" the old beggar choked with emotion.

Village Chief Zhao stroked his beard and sighed lightly: "You have meat to eat at this meal today, and you have to thank me not for it, but for this man." ”

After speaking, he pointed at Liu Xing.

"Well, thank you! Thank you!" After the old beggar put down his rice bowl and chopsticks, he pulled the little beggar and knelt down in front of Liu Xing.

"Don't do that. Liu Xing hurriedly picked up the old beggar and the little beggar.

After a closer look, he found that the old beggar was extraordinary, and there was an otherworldly taste in it.

In other words, this old beggar was definitely not an ordinary person before he fell down.

Thinking of this, he said softly: "Grandpa, if you don't dislike it, my sister still has some leftovers there, why don't you go over and eat together?"

"No need. The old beggar refused even a word.

"Okay then!" Liu Xing knew that the old beggar was very defensive, and after sighing lightly, he walked away with the melon seeds.

Village Chief Zhao did not stop on the side of the road, and after reaching out and patting the old beggar on the shoulder, he picked up Zhao Jing and followed behind Liu Xing.

After Liu Xing returned to the gate, he didn't go to accompany Nie Sun, Nie Quan, Zhao Biao, and Zhao Hu to talk about the decoration for the first time, but took out two pairs of shoes made of tires from the backyard.

One of them was a size 42 slipper, and the other was a slipper worn by a child.

Originally, this was meant to be given to Village Chief Zhao and Zhao Jing, but now that there are people who need them even more, it is natural to change the plan.

Seeing that Xiao Budian had eaten enough, he immediately squatted down and handed over the shoes in his hand: "Do my uncle a favor, give these two pairs of shoes to the beggar on the side of the road, and when you come back, your uncle will reward you with a twist flower." ”

"Okay!!" said Xiao Budian.

"Brother, the nest should also be just twisted. The melon seeds on the side hugged Liu Xing's right leg and raised his little head.

"Then you accompany Xiao Budian to deliver shoes. Liu Xing stretched out his hand and pinched the little face of the melon seeds.

"Uh-huh!" melon seeds took the little little hand and ran towards the side of the road with their little short legs.

The old beggar who was eating heard the footsteps and hurriedly looked up, and saw that the little girl who had delivered the food before had come again, and hurriedly stood up with the help of the wooden stick on the side.

The little beggar also stopped gobbling up, and there was kindness in his eyes when he looked at the melon seeds and the little one.

"Grandpa, these are the shoes that Brother Wo gave you, and your granddaughter also has them. The melon seed approached, and he stepped forward and handed over the two pairs of slippers in Xiao Budian's hand.

"This ...... It's too precious for me to ask for it. The old beggar said.

The little beggar was also a little confused.

Because in her memory, the shoes were controlled items.

If you don't have a ticket and you have a lot of money, you simply can't afford it.

"Why can't you ask for it, these shoes are made by Uncle Wo from old tires, and I don't want your money. Xiao Budian said a little unhappily.

If the shoes can't be delivered, then she won't be able to eat the twist flowers hidden by her mother later.

"Who is your uncle?" the old beggar was stunned.

"It's Brother Wo, the one who invited you to dinner before. Guazi explained with a smile.

"Oh. The old beggar suddenly realized, and under hesitation, he had to accept the slippers: "Child, go back and say to your brother, thank him for the gift, if the old man can 'stand up' again in his lifetime, he will definitely repay him." ”

"Huh...... Textual crepe. The melon seed shrunk his neck: "The nest will be brought, but your old man should also pay attention at night, don't sleep on the road, be careful of mosquitoes." ”

"Thanks for the reminder. The old beggar was affected by the cute appearance of the melon seeds, and smiled very happily.

But soon his smile retracted, and he frowned and looked at Xiao Budian: "What's the matter with your lips, they are so red and swollen?"

"Before the nest, I went to dig the ant nest, and I accidentally picked up the ground honeycomb, and was bitten by a ground bee. Xiao Budian replied embarrassedly.

"But it should be fine. Melon Seed said with a smile.

If there was something, I wouldn't have eaten so much meat when I ate before.

"Who said it was okay. The old beggar looked at Xiao Budian's red and swollen lips with a solemn face, and then took a wooden stick to find a plant with small blue flowers in the grass on the side of the road, put it on the pebble and pounded it with a wooden stick, and then applied it to Xiao Budian's red and swollen lips.

"Grandpa, what are you doing here?" asked Guazi suspiciously.

"Give her medicine so that the infection of the wound does not worsen. The old beggar sat down on the stone with the help of the little beggar: "Don't underestimate the wound of a bee's sting, for if you eat the wrong thing, you will easily die." ”

"Huh?" melon seeds were frightened.

Xiao Budian also shrank his neck.

"But now that I've put medicine on her, it should be fine, sleep at night, and I'll wake up tomorrow without anything. The old beggar smiled and stroked his beard.

"Thank you, old man. Gua Zilian said.

"Yes, thank you Grandpa. Xiao Budian followed up.

"It's a gesture, and it's not worth mentioning at all compared to your brother's food. The old beggar waved his hand.

"You can't say that. The melon seed took the little little hand: "Grandpa, it's late, I have to go back, goodbye!"

"Goodbye!" the old beggar nodded slowly.

"Let's go!" Guazi turned around and left with a little bit.

But Xiao Budian walked two meters away and suddenly turned around: "Grandpa, are you a doctor?"

"Sort of!" the old beggar sighed for a moment, and a thick helplessness appeared in his eyes, as well as endless vicissitudes.

This kind of vicissitudes seems to fill the whole world......
