Ye Xiaozhen was so angry that she laughed.
"Erbao, turn around. Mommy will perform a magic trick for you."
"Okay." Erbao was very happy and wanted to see his mother perform magic tricks.
Ye Xiaozhen secretly took out two one-dollar bills, then took out two ten-dollar bills from her bag and stuffed them in respectively.
Xie Li: “…”
"Okay, Erbao, turn around."
When Erbao turned around, Ye Xiaozhen returned the three red envelopes to her, "Look, are they the same?"
Erbao was surprised, "Hey, they are really the same."
"Is mom awesome?"
"Mom is amazing. Mom can do magic tricks. She's amazing."
Ye Xiaozhen patted her head and let her go play.
The three 께놅 can be coaxed like this, but 꺶놅녦 can’t be coaxed.
Hongxia had already taken the money to the bank opposite to exchange it.
Xie Li was speechless about the family's shameless behavior. She kept complaining while washing dishes in the kitchen with Ye Xiaozhen.
"I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone so shameless. Damn it, if it weren't for Grandpa, I would have had a fight with her just for what happened today."
Thinking that Grandpa was in poor health and we didn't know how many years he could live, everyone in the family was feeling very angry.
Ye Xiaozhen thought that when the old man passed away in the future, Xie Li and Xie Linan would probably have a fight with their two uncles.
At this time, Xie Linan was chatting with his grandfather in the house.
There is a TV and a radio in the old man's room.
There is no such thing now. Children don’t need to be taken care of when they go to school.
To kill time, I watch TV and listen to the radio. These days are pretty good.
I am getting old, especially in poor health recently, and I know it well.
Understand that your life is coming to an end.
When I wake up in the middle of the night, I always think of the past, and many people who have passed away for many years appear more and more clearly in my memory.
I am also increasingly attached to my living relatives.
But after what happened today, I understand that we can no longer live in harmony.
"Forget it. Trees need branches, and children need to divide the family. Lin An, you have compromised a lot for Grandpa, and Grandpa knows it all. Don't ask you to come again in the future. You don't like to see me and think I'm a burden. I know it in my heart. You can come and bring things with you. It's not me who is responsible, but you. I also know it."
Xie Linan clenched his fists, tightened and unclenched them, loosened and tightened them again.
Finally, he sighed and nodded, "Okay, then we'll take you to Haicheng later."
Lin Xinghua nodded, "Okay, we'll go wherever you say."
"I will endure it one more time before I leave and ask you to come see you."
"No." Lin Xinghua pulled him and said, "No need to look for us, let's just leave it like this."
This is how my life will be.
Xie Linan did not talk about the two uncles anymore, but changed the subject and talked about other things.
In fact, Lin Xinghua has been talking a lot recently, often talking about old times with Xie Linan.
When I first came to Xie's house, I almost starved to death.
Later, he was taken in by Xie Linan's grandmother and her family.
At this point, a smile appeared on his face. "In fact, at the beginning, they didn't intend to take me in. They just took pity on me and gave me some dry steamed buns, telling me to eat and leave. At the beginning, I also planned to leave after eating, wandering wherever I wanted. Unexpectedly, your grandmother took pity on me and brought me a bowl of porridge. If it weren't for the bowl of porridge, I would have had a hard time swallowing the dry steamed buns."
At this point he smiled and said, "I had already filled the bowl with porridge, but your grandmother spilled all the porridge in my broken bowl before she gave me the porridge."
Xie Linan smiled, "So then you won't be considered a wanderer anymore, you will stay and depend on her."
The smile on Lin Xinghua's face disappeared. What does this bastard mean by relying on her?
But when I think about it carefully, it seems that I really relied on her back then.
Then he continued, "Back then, I was just wandering around, but I didn't really live. At that moment, I suddenly wanted to live. Your grandmother's family was the best family I had ever met. They put steamed buns in my hands and porridge in my hands. They didn't despise me for being a beggar. I knew in my heart that if I wanted to survive, this might be my only chance."
"They took pity on you and kept you here?"
Lin Xinghua nodded and said, "During the war, your grandmother's brothers went out and never came back. She was the only daughter left at home, so she had to find a live-in son-in-law to continue the family line. Even though I'm a cripple, all the men died in the wars at that time. There were more men than women in the surrounding areas. Let alone a live-in son-in-law, it was hard to get married even if I was a normal woman."
"So they left you here?"
Lin Xinghua smiled proudly, "Yes, I am lucky that they kept me."
"You are really lucky, otherwise people would look down on you as a cripple."
Lin Xinghua: “…”
This turtle grandson, why does he speak so harshly?
"I have no other problems except being lame, and I was young at that time, only fifteen or sixteen years old. No one noticed when I was dirty, but once I washed myself and changed my clothes, your grandmother's eyes lit up."
"Oh, is that so?" Xie Linan looked at it and said, "Tsk, tsk, I can't tell."
"I am old now. When I was young, I was very handsome. There was nothing wrong with me except my lame leg."
Seeing his grandson's disdainful look, the old man gradually became irritable, and tried his best to say that he was kept because he was handsome when he was young, hardworking, grateful and other advantages.
Xie Linan saw that 놛 was getting more and more angry, so he smiled and comforted 놛.
"Grandpa is right, you are definitely handsome, you are still handsome now, and you are the most handsome among the old men in their seventies and eighties."
The old man looked better now.
Xie Linan asked again: "Where is your hometown? Grandpa, why did you wander around back then?"
Lin Xinghua's smile froze, and he sighed again, "It was because of the war that my father, uncles, and several brothers and cousins died. I am the youngest and the last one in the family. I was not called to fight because I was born with a lame leg and was old.
Seeing that I was the only one left, my grandmother forced me to flee to the southwest, saying that there was a barrier there and I couldn't get in, and that if I could survive and climb over the barrier, I would definitely survive. My grandmother beat me up and drove me out, threatening to die.
I was too old to understand at that time. I remember my grandmother scolded me and kicked me out of the house. My father was dead and my mother didn’t want me. When I crawled out of the house, they didn’t even look at me. It was only later that I gradually understood that they did that because they wanted me to survive.”
Hearing these words, my heart felt heavy.
"So after all these years, have you ever been back?"
Lin Xinghua shook his head. "No, but I asked someone to go there and heard that our village was massacred. No one was left alive."
