tiger father dog son

Back at the theater at night, Xiao Kou'er walked listlessly back to his room.Because of Li Decai's relationship, he has always had a room of his own, and he doesn't have to squeeze into Datong's shop with those elementary school students.

Squeak -- as soon as the loosely closed door was pushed open, Little Kou'er's eyes lit up!For nothing else, he actually smelled the tempting aroma of food.He stretched out his slender neck, tried his best to open his eyes, and realized that the person sitting in the dark room was none other than Li Decai.On the kang table on the heated kang, there is a large bowl of white rice covered with a lot of shiny braised pork, just like Chinese New Year!

"Hurry up and eat on the kang!" Li Decai couldn't help laughing and cursing as he saw the child standing at the door and drooling stupidly.

Xiao Kou'er scratched his sparse yellow hair and smirked, then climbed onto the kang without saying a word, holding a sea bowl in his two small hands and shoveling rice into his mouth, obviously rolling his eyes from choking, but still stuffing it into his mouth desperately .

"Why are you eating so fast, and no one is robbing you!" Li Decai looked at it and laughed, and poured him a glass of water and put it beside him.Seeing Xiao Kou'er stretching out his hand to hold the teacup while grilling the rice, he stretched out his hand, revealing large bruises and red spots on his white wrist, and some red spots that were obviously drawn out. .

Li Decai's face changed immediately, he grabbed Xiao Kou'er's wrist, rolled up his sleeves and checked carefully, and found that there were no more serious injuries other than these, so his expression eased a little.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xiao Kou'er immediately withdrew his hand and slammed his head in a hurry to pick up the rice.After a while, Li Decai walked away, and then returned to the kang.After he filled his stomach with the last mouthful of hot rice, his hands were pulled over, and a cooling ointment was applied to the hot, swollen and painful parts.

"I'm fine." Xiao Kou'er wiped his mouth with his other hand, and finally said indifferently.

Li Decai lowered his head, carefully applied and massaged on this slender arm.This is not the first time, the first time he would ask, why was he beaten?Not anymore.Famous characters all climbed up step by step by gritting their teeth and swallowing blood... After experiencing those dirty things, their hearts often become hardened and twisted.

He picked up Xiaokouer himself, and he always cherishes it in his heart.It's not that he didn't think that if he recognized him, no one in this theater could bully him - but to recognize an actor as his father, that would be more despicable than anything else.In the past, prostitutes said that prostitutes were ahead of prostitutes. In fact, prostitutes were not even as good as prostitutes.Actors have to salute prostitutes when they meet.The reason is that once prostitutes become good, they still have the hope of being granted a title in the future, but actors do not even have this, so their status is even lower.Although the world has changed nowadays, actors are still playthings in the hands of those nobles.If Xiao Kou'er doesn't learn opera and doesn't recognize him as a father, he can still be a good citizen in the future, and can be respected by others when he is educated... But if he does, he will only be able to marry an actor in the future.

Even though he manages the theater, he has to rely on this and that after all, and cannot be the master.If you can't be your own master, how can you take care of this child?

"You child...you have a bad life..." Li Decai said in a low voice, but his eyes were red.

The thin wrist in his hand trembled, and then became more and more stiff.Li Decai finished applying the medicine, looked up, and saw the child staring at him blankly, his face was full of snot and tears, he was in a state of distress, his eyes were full of pain, premature vicissitudes, and inexplicable longing.

"I...I miss my parents—" Xiao Kou'er wept, looking at Li Decai trembling all over.If the village hadn't been robbed by bandits, if his parents hadn't died...he should still be able to roll around on his kang, eat boiled eggs cooked by his mother in the morning, and go up the mountain with his father to hunt wild rabbits...he wouldn't let anyone beat him here People scold you, you don't need to secretly eat those leftovers in the kitchen, you don't need to watch someone have a father and secretly wipe your tears——

Li Decai's heart ached so much, he hugged Xiao Kou'er, not knowing how to coax him.Normally, he always scolded him for his wicked looks, but if his family had nothing to do and hadn't become a beggar without a fixed place... no matter how ugly he was, he was still not a treasure in the eyes of his parents.

Xiao Kou'er closed his eyes and lay in Li Decai's arms sobbing, but his heart felt broken into pieces.The father and son he saw during the day, and the beating he received by Li Yitang afterwards, completely broke his young heart... How can people be different from each other?Why can someone live happily like that?

Why does he want to live like this?

"Kuu'er don't cry... Be good, let's not cry..." Li Decai stroked the soft hair of the child, saying he was persuading him, and after persuading him, he also started to cry.These people are born with a bad fate, and they don't have the good fortune to be born in a wealthy family, even a well-off common people's family... You said that when you come to this world, you don't just come to suffer hardships, do you?But he, Li Decai, has not had a good life since he was born.

At the beginning, she managed to make it into a role, and was sent to the benefactor's bedside the first night.From then on, he didn't regard himself as a man...it would be better.After all, how can there be a man like him who spends all his time lying under another man's body?Even now, he is also relying on that person to gain a firm foothold at the foot of the imperial city. If that person turns his back on him one day, he can only roll up his bedding and beg along the street.

"The class leader doesn't cry either..." Xiao Kou'er breathed a sigh of relief, wiping away tears while sobbing.He raised his little head and looked at the person who picked him up and kept taking care of him. Tears hung on his beautiful face, but he was not as disgusting as himself, but rather delicate and weak, which made people feel pity.He stretched out his little hand and wiped away the tears on Li Decai's face.

Li Decai realized his loss of composure, and gradually stopped his tears, looking down at the child in his arms.After crying like this, he remembered something. "Little button, let me tell you something."

Little Button blinked, but didn't say a word.

"Do you still remember Uncle Li in Fuzhou?" Li Decai continued to ask indifferently.

"Remember, Li Deyu." Xiao Kouer immediately remembered and replied.When he was picked up by Li Decai, it was when Li Decai stepped back from the stage and was busy in the theater.At that time, Li Deyu was the senior brother, and he was still supporting Li Decai. When he was not singing, he helped take care of him for a long time.Xu was too young at that time, so he didn't even remember when Li Deyu left...

"I have a good memory." Li Decai touched Xiao Kou'er's brain, and said with a smile, "Your Uncle Li also opened a theater in Fuzhou. I heard that it is booming now, and he needs a young man by his side."

"Why did Uncle Li go to Fuzhou?" Xiao Kouer asked curiously.Fuzhou, he had only heard of it, anyway, it was far away from the capital.

"That's his hometown," Li Decai sighed, and said softly in his eyes, "I'm going to recommend you, and I've told you Uncle Li about it... Even if he's a servant, he's reluctant to let you do those menial jobs. By your Uncle Li's side, learn to settle accounts, learn to manage affairs, in the future you may not be sure..." His voice faded, and he didn't say anything if he was uncertain.These future events are not certain at all.

"No matter what, there is always a way out, isn't it..." Li Decai lifted his spirits, and said to Xiao Kou'er with a smile.

"Then... I'm going to Fuzhou?" Xiao Kou'er was stunned for a while, and only now came to his senses, his little brows were knotted into knots.

"Why? Reluctant?" Li Decai pretended to be relaxed, but his voice became hoarse again.At this time, he finally realized that Xiao Kouer was about to leave his side?

The child didn't answer, just lowered his head listlessly, only showing Li Decai his light-colored curls and slender neck.

Li Decai fell silent, and reached out to touch the child's slender neck.This child has never left his side since he was picked up. He is not a father and son, but he is as close as a father and son.It is impossible for him to have a child in his whole life, maybe there is only one little button.

Thinking of this, Li Decai suddenly felt very regretful. He should really adopt Xiaokouer.give him a name.In this way, even if Xiao Kou'er goes elsewhere in the future, he will still remember that he has a father... a hundred years later, there will be his descendants of Li Decai, and no one will know or remember after his death.

"I went to Fuzhou...will I be able to come back in the future?" Xiao Kou'er was bored for a long time, and choked out a word.

Li Decai laughed.How could he have forgotten that little Kou'er is usually sneaky and doesn't do good things, but his heart...is much better than most people in this world, and it's rare to be affectionate.

"Why don't you come back?" He looked at the child with a stern face: "Don't forget who has raised you for so long, you have to come back to take care of me, right?"

Xiao Kou'er puffed up her small face, but her small eyes couldn't help squinting, and her heart suddenly settled down.It's not that the class leader doesn't want him anymore... In this world, there is still a place for him to return to, little Kouer.

This night, the two of them hugged each other and chatted like this, even though it was hot, they didn't feel stuffy.

Half a month passed like this, and on the day before he was about to leave, Li Decai cooked for himself and cooked a table of delicious dishes.Speaking of which, since he joined the theater industry, although he has endured a lot of hardships, such as cooking and washing, he has never touched his hands.The good craftsmanship on the stove is thanks to that person.

Thinking of that person, Li Decai couldn't help becoming irritable, and he couldn't explain why he was irritable.When he was still a young man, he was always taken into that man's house every winter and summer.Comfortable is comfortable, but the man always asked him to cook by himself. At the beginning, his hands were either one or the other. Every time he returned to the troupe, he had to make the master feel distressed to death.

"Master..." An awkward voice came from the door.Li Decai came back to his senses, turned around and looked over, couldn't help but smile.It's probably the first time for Xiao Button to wear such a formal dress. Look, the silk gown with round neck, high-quality material, and well-fitting tailoring make it look like a young master against the villain.

"I forgot to change your outfit..." Li Decai nodded, and asked with a smile, "Who gave you this?"

Xiao Kouer frowned, and it took him a long time before he reluctantly said, "Boss Li."

Li Decai raised his eyebrows immediately.This is strange... At the beginning, Xiao Kou'er was sent to Li Yitang's side, so that he could earn some money and learn some skills, but he also suffered a lot of crimes, big and small, why did he find out his conscience when he left?

Without thinking too much, he greeted Xiao Kou'er and the few little apprentices he had been friends with on weekdays to the table, and had a lively meal.The little button holds the vegetables, but it doesn't taste as good as it used to.He watched Li Decai keep picking up food for himself, and kept talking about what to do when he saw this person and how to say hello to that person, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, Li Decai is the best person in his life besides his parents... But, he still can't control whether he will stay or not.Xiao Kou'er is not stupid at all, he is even clearer than Li Decai in certain matters.For example, the truth about his trip to Fuzhou this time.
