The Story of a Plane Merchant Selling a House
Chapter 120: The Mountain Falls
"Grandma is not feeling well. She hasn't written to me for such a long time. I'm very worried. My sister cried several times at night." The little boy looked at his sister in his arms.
The little girl looked at him pitifully. Lai looked at the child with sloppy hair and took the little girl from the boy's hands. "Then stay at your aunt's house today and wait for the sisters to come back from kindergarten and play with them."
After coming back from the visit, I started to boil water. The girl was covered in dust. The boy was only in his early teens. He took his sister with him wherever he went. It was good enough for him to cook for her. He couldn't expect anything more.
After boiling some water, I gave the little girl a bath and trimmed the parts of her hair that couldn't be combed. Fortunately, she didn't have lice.
The little girl is over three years old. She came to see Niu Niu, and found a clean piece of clothing with not too many patches on it that she wore when she was a child. She changed the clothes for the child and helped her wash the dirty clothes. The clothes were not torn, but some places were not clean, which was probably because the boy washed them himself.
When Xiaokai came back in the evening, he led Niu Niu, and Niu Niu led Nana. Seeing the little girls, they were quite happy. "Neighbor sister, will you come and play with us?"
The little girl looked at her sisters eagerly without saying anything.
Come and watch and say to the babies, "The neighbor's little sister is sleeping at our house today. You can play with her. I'll give you a small cookie each. Don't fight over it."
The little girls soon became familiar with each other. They took out a portion of steamed bread and steamed vegetables from the hot pot and asked Xiaokai to give them to the neighbor boy.
The boy was still a little shy, and the vegetable porridge in his pot was definitely not as good as the steamed buns and steamed vegetables.
He went back into the house, took out a box of snacks, handed Xiaokai a piece of date cake, and the two quickly became familiar with each other.
Xiao Kai was very curious about him, "Why don't I see you go to school? Don't you have to go to school?"
The boy was a little shy, "I used to learn the Four Books from my grandma, I never went to school."
Xiao Kai patted his shoulder earnestly and said, "If you don't go to school, you won't be able to become a successor to socialism when you grow up. You should also go to school quickly."
After saying that, he happily went home with the date cake.
The boy felt a little lonely listening to the laughter coming from the yard over there.
The next morning, I went to the post office to check on the two children but didn't receive a reply telegram. I went to work directly.
For several days in a row, I went to the post office after get off work, but the telegrams I sent fell into the sea without any response.
The boy became more and more anxious, until the sixtieth day after the old man left. That night, the boy came to knock on the door of the old man's house, carrying his sister on his back and holding a bundle in his arms.
The boy's eyes were red. "Come on, Auntie, I'll sell these things to you. Please send us to Hai City to find grandma, okay?"
The boy opened the package, and inside were six wooden boxes. "Four hundred-year-old wild ginseng, one ganoderma lucidum, and a box of top-quality cordyceps. Only exchange for gold."
I was a little excited to come and see it. After the system scan, the total estimated value was as high as more than 4,000 points.
Lai Kan was puzzled, "Who are you? How come you have so many precious things? Are you some capitalists or feudal bureaucrats who are going to be overthrown?"
The little boy was anxious, "How could that be? Our family is a family of medicine..." He seemed to remember something and quickly shut his mouth.
After thinking about it carefully, "local accent, family of medical practitioners..." It seems that there is no clue.
She let the boy into the yard and asked him to wait.
Returning to the storage room, he spoke quietly to Tutu, who quickly placed the gold bars in the pet house and stuffed two cans of milk powder into her pocket.
Lai Di asked Tu Tu quietly, "Do you want to send the two children off?"
Tutu thought for a moment and said, "You can give the child away, but we must find out why they are hiding their identities. Wait for me to find the talisman."
Tutu took out a small wooden box from the storage building, which contained various small talismans with strange effects that Ruifeng had hidden for her.
"That's it. The truth talisman."
He found a small paper box and put the truth talisman and other talismans in the cabin and teleported them over together.
Lai Di took out the gold bars, counted out the gold bars worth nearly 40,000, handed them to the boy, and at the same time, carefully tore open the truth talisman with his fingernails and stuck it on the boy.
The boy's expression began to stiffen, and Lai Ke hurriedly asked, "Who are you? Are you a spy?"
The boy replied, "My father was the previous head of Baoyi Hall. We are not spies."
Without saying a word, he called his sister out to see Baoyi Hall, a place he was not familiar with at all.
My sister knew Baoyitang, which seemed to be a medical clinic in Lincheng. When she was still in the team, she passed by Lincheng.
Her younger sister taught her to ask questions, "Is it Baoyitang in Lincheng? Why are you hiding your identity? Is the old man really going to Haishi to see his daughter?"
The boy answered, "It's Baoyi Hall in Lincheng. After my parents died, they were afraid that the family would seize their property, so my grandmother sold the store and house and took us to hide in her hometown. My aunt is really in Haishi, and we want to go find her."
My sister thinks it’s fine as long as he’s not a spy.
"I don't think that old man would have any problems just because he went to Hai City. Maybe he got stuck or made a mistake in the communication address."
I asked my sister to come into the room quickly and see that I had used the forgetfulness charm to erase short-term memory on the boy and removed the truth charm from the boy. The boy didn't feel anything was wrong.
I was still preparing to get a letter of introduction when I came to see him. But a week later, the old man in Haishi sent me a telegram, "Return, leaving today."
It's a bit awkward to see this. She has already bought all the herbs, so she won't want them back.
When the old man came back a few days later, she no longer cared about the embarrassment.
The old man brought back another little girl.
The little girl was about five or six years old, and looked very thin. She dodged and grabbed the corner of the old man's clothes. She didn't dare to look outside.
The old man's white hair, which was originally combed for shopping, was now messy and he looked listless.
Lai Kan handed the old man a cup of hot water and he sat down to rest for a while.
The old man looked at her carefully and sighed, "Why can't my little daughter be as independent and self-reliant as you?"
Seeing that she had spoken, I tentatively asked, "Is the matter resolved?"
The old man hugged the little girl and said, "Hey, my little daughter has never suffered since she was a child. All she sees is love. When her husband cheated on her, she was in a daze all day long and didn't care whether the child had enough to eat or was warmly dressed. This time I went there and asked her to divorce, but within two months she fell in love with someone else and wanted to get married again. She has completely ignored the child. I was almost mad at her."
"My ex-husband's family is afraid of delaying his remarriage and doesn't want the children, so I have to bring them back. In the future, you can't expect the children to go to Haishi to live with her after I die. You can't count on her. I still have to use my old bones to raise the children." The old man was a little angry.
At the end of life, no one can be relied on. I have to hold on to my old bones, persevere, and protect my children from the wind and rain for a few more years.
