"No legs?" Xie Yunjiao looked at the old man coldly.
The old man was thick-skinned and pretended not to hear what Xie Yunjiao said, and continued to walk with the support of the two children.
Xie Yunjiao walked up to the old man angrily and blocked his way: "Where do you live? If it's too far, it's too tiring for two children to support you."
"Not far."
The old man reeked of alcohol, making people dizzy.
Seeing that Doudou and Lian Jin were unwilling to let go, Xie Yunjiao had no choice but to ask the two children to move aside and she came to help herself.
Unexpectedly, the old man complained of dizziness and said he couldn't stand or walk.
It was obvious that he was attracted by Xie Yunjiao because she was an adult and wanted her to carry him on her back.
"Mom, grandpa is so pitiful." Doudou looked at Xie Yunjiao, his eyes full of pleading.
"Men and women should not touch each other." Xie Yunjiao said.
"Ouch, I feel so dizzy." The old man wailed again, as if he was about to fall down.
Many passersby saw the old man staggering and about to faint, but Xie Yunjiao did not go over to help him, so they spoke intentionally or unintentionally, and it was unclear whether they were speaking to Xie Yunjiao or to themselves.
"How pitiful! He was about to fall down but no one came to help him."
"That's not true. That's too heartless."
Xie Yunjiao glanced at them indifferently and said in a cold voice: "If you are so compassionate, come and help."
As soon as Xie Yunjiao finished speaking, those people scattered like fish startled by a stone.
"No one is watching you now. If you want to leave, walk by yourself. If you can't walk, just keep lying down." Xie Yunjiao looked at the old man and said.
The old man looked at Xie Yunjiao with some grievance: "If you don't help me, you will regret it."
Xie Yunjiao was amused by the old man. She had never seen such a shameless old man: "Why should I regret it? Tell me.
If you can't explain why, you will be the one who regrets it."
It was the first time the old man had seen a woman like Xie Yunjiao. She was not pretentious at all and was very imposing.
But he is thick-skinned and not afraid.
"If you don't help me, and I fall down, I'll say you pushed me," the old man threatened.
Xie Yunjiao thought, see, the fox's tail is finally revealed, right?
"It wasn't your mother who pushed you. You fell down on your own. Grandpa, people have skin and trees have dignity. You are an old man, you can't be shameless."
The old man's face turned the color of liver, and he felt a little embarrassed.
He is thick-skinned, but not shameless.
The old man coughed lightly and said, "I just feel dizzy. Can you help me?"
"No help." Xie Yunjiao said.
"help."
"help."
Doudou and Lian Jin said in unison.
Xie Yunjiao looked at these two kids with a headache, who refused to turn back until they hit the wall. The old man was so shameless, and they actually wanted to help him go home.
"Mom, I want to know why we didn't help him go back. We will regret it." Doudou said.
Lian Jin also nodded. He had the same idea as Doudou.
Xie Yunjiao was speechless for a while. She felt that if they helped the old man back, they would be the ones who regretted it, not the old man.
"Mom, please be okay?" Doudou held on to the old man tightly and looked at Xie Yunjiao pleadingly.
Xie Yunjiao had no choice but to grab the old man by the collar and ran away quickly.
The old man was almost suffocating because of his collar, but he had a smug smile on his face and said that this time he finally didn't have to walk.
Xie Yunjiao had never seen such a shameless and weird old man.
Following the old man's directions, they came to a remote alley, and at the end was the old man's home.
Xie Yunjiao wanted to just leave the old man at the entrance of the alley, but the old man seemed to be asleep and didn't react at all.
If I left him at the entrance of the alley, he probably wouldn't even realize it.
As if he guessed what Xie Yunjiao was thinking, the old man suddenly opened his eyes: "Since we're already at the door, why don't you go in and sit for a while?"
Xie Yunjiao was about to drop him when he said, "If you let go now, you'll really be the one who dropped me."
Xie Yunjiao raised her eyebrows and loosened her grip, causing the old man to fall directly to the ground, grimacing in pain.
He touched his butt and got up from the ground, looking at Xie Yunjiao with a wronged look on his face: "You really let go."
"If you want to threaten me, I'll find a place with a lot of people. This place is deserted, and no one will know if I kill you here."
The old man couldn't help laughing when he saw Xie Yunjiao's words "a bird doesn't lay eggs and a turtle doesn't poop".
"Who said there's no one here?" the old man suddenly shouted at the top of his voice. "Someone, come out quickly! My master is about to be thrown to death."
The door of the dilapidated house at the end of the alley was opened, and a man in white clothes with a handsome face walked out.
He was like a pure lotus, untainted by the mud, and slowly walked towards Xie Yunjiao and the others through the shaky broken door.
When he saw the old man fall to the ground, he first helped the old man up and then nodded to Xie Yunjiao and others.
"Master, why did you drink so much wine again?"
"What you are asking is nonsense. I'm sleepy. Take me back to sleep." said the old man.
He seemed to have forgotten who brought him back from the busy city.
"Old man, at least we brought you back here from the downtown area, shouldn't you say thank you?" Xie Yunjiao said.
Upon hearing this, the man in white supported the old man and bowed to Xie Yunjiao. "I am Wu Mingde, and I would like to thank you for your kindness in bringing my teacher back."
"Wait a minute, you said he was a teacher, so the place behind you is the academy?" Xie Yunjiao asked in disbelief.
When she asked this question, she actually found herself a little funny. The old man was slovenly and drunk, and he didn't look like a role model at all.
"That's right, this is Yingtian Academy," Wu Mingde said, glancing at Doudou and Lian Jin, who were timidly standing behind Xie Yunjiao. "Our academy is enrolling students normally. If you don't mind, you can come in and take a look."
Xie Yunjiao looked at Doudou, and before she could agree, Doudou said "OK".
Doudou whispered to Xie Yunjiao, "I really like that brother."
Xie Yunjiao: “…”
I didn’t expect that Doudou also cares so much about appearance.
However, she is also quite impressed by Wu Mingde's appearance. If he were in later generations, he would be able to debut directly as the center.
But compared to Gu Huai, it's still a little bit worse.
They followed Wu Mingde into Yingtian Academy. The academy was very large, with many classrooms and a large library. However, the things inside were all tattered and old, but it was very clean.
There are many books placed outside the library, as if they are being dried in the sun.
"You're drying your books in this kind of weather?" Xie Yunjiao's mouth twitched.
"No?" Wu Mingde asked doubtfully.
"Of course not. It's spring now. Although it's still a bit chilly, the air is very humid. If you dry the books out in the sun, they will only get wetter."
