The old man was shocked by Xiaobao's cleverness. He lowered his eyes to look at the necklace and note in his hand, his eyes full of tears.
"Xiaobao, don't do such dangerous things again, okay? If they find out, you..."
The old man burst into tears before he could finish his words. The scene of Ayong and He Fengcui beating Xiaobao flashed through his mind, and his eyes were almost swollen from crying.
He and his deceased wife were both kind-hearted people, but for some reason they raised a devil like Ayong.
Not only did he love prostitution and gambling, he was also completely unscrupulous, bloodthirsty and cruel, and he showed no mercy when he attacked him and Xiaobao.
Why did he say "raised"? That's because Yong was not his and his wife's biological child, but was adopted from his cousin.
My cousin had a miserable life. Both his parents died when he was young, and less than two years after their marriage, his wife mysteriously fell into a river and died.
Ayong was less than one year old at that time. After suffering another severe blow, he began to have mental problems, sometimes in a trance and sometimes lucid.
Seeing this, the couple took the initiative to give him their savings so that he could go to a big hospital for treatment. They also said that Ayong and others would help take care of him temporarily, so he could rest assured.
But at that moment, my cousin suddenly proposed to adopt Yong under their name and refused to provide treatment.
He knew very well about his own health condition. Rather than losing both his money and his life, he would rather make the most of the money and raise Ayong.
Finally, seeing that he had made up his mind, Mr. Zhao could only adopt Ayong under his own name with tears in his eyes.
Later, my cousin's mind became more and more confused, until one night he jumped into the river and died, which ended everything. The river was the same river where Ayong's mother died.
Recalling the past, Mr. Zhao burst into tears and beat his chest in grief. If he had known that Ayong was such a heartless devil, he would never have adopted him.
Seeing the old man crying so hard, Xiaobao raised his hand and wiped his tears obediently. His bright and clear eyes were filled with moisture, which made the old man's heart tighten again.
He reached out and hugged Xiaobao tightly, and he began to sob. The dull and suppressed sound made the night even more sad and deep.
Xiaobao couldn't hold it in any longer, tears as big as beans rolled down his face, and his small body trembled violently in the old man's arms.
Sister, uncle, he missed them so much! He didn't know if he would ever see them again.
And the little baby in my sister's belly, will she... be okay?
"Xiaobao, don't cry. Grandpa won't cry, and you won't cry either." Mr. Zhao comforted Xiaobao after adjusting his mood.
He lowered his head and carefully looked at the words on Xiaobao's note again. He imprinted them in his mind, then found his lighter and lit it.
Xiaobao seemed to be accustomed to his behavior. He bit his lip and watched the flickering sparks without stopping him.
Yes, this note must not be seen by Mom and Dad, otherwise he will be beaten, and I am afraid that grandpa will suffer with him. After all, Mom and Dad have no humanity at all.
The next day.
Ayong and his wife were awakened by Xiaobao's heart-wrenching whimpering. When they woke up, they saw that the little guy was hugging Grandpa Zhao's legs and crying bitterly.
Ayong frowned, his eyes falling on the black sack the old man was carrying. He frowned, "Dad, what are you doing?"
He Fengcui's face was twisted with sleepiness. "All the shabby things were put into the sack. What do you want him to do? Of course, get out."
Old Master Zhao sighed sadly, glanced at Xiaobao who was hugging his legs, and cruelly pried them apart, "Since I can't persuade you two to do good deeds, then I'd better go back to my hometown and fend for myself.
After all, I am not worse than you two beasts. I cannot bear to watch Xiaobao die in front of me. If that were to happen, I would rather escape."
As he spoke, the old man touched Xiaobao's head again and choked up, "Xiaobao, don't blame grandpa for being cruel. If grandpa had any ability to save you, I would not abandon you. But now grandpa... I really can't do anything."
