Chapter 36
Everyone looked up and saw an old man wearing gray clothes and looking dirty. His skin was full of wrinkles and his eyes were very small, almost as small as a slit. He was shriveled and thin. He stared at them up and down, and his eyes especially lingered on their skin exposed to the air.
This person was still standing in the middle of the road, blocking their way.
Nan Tao frowned in disgust and whispered to Jiang Hui and the others, "Let's retreat first. Once he passes, we'll go over."
The composition of netizens watching the live broadcast was very complex, including fans of guests of all sizes, passers-by, fans of rival teams, various online groups, etc., but they were all very angry when they saw this scene.
[It's so disgusting. It's really bad luck to meet such a person. ]
[I once encountered this kind of person on the road when I was going to school. I was almost scared to death. Fortunately, there were other people around.]
Doesn't he know about live streaming? He's so blatant.
I saw him see the camera, but he probably didn't take it seriously. Some elderly people are just disgusting.
There's a popular saying these days: It's not the old people who become bad, it's the bad people who become old.
Why is he standing there and not moving? What does that mean?
[This is the only way, but you're standing there and not letting me pass. Is that intentional?]
【Hug my goddess. 】
Seeing that the man was still blocking the road, Nan Tao and the others said to the filming crew, "Could you please talk to him and ask him to get out of the way? We can give him the right of way and let him go first."
The filming staff walked over and negotiated with the other party.
"Hello, you are blocking the road and we can't pass. Can you go first?"
"Why am I blocking the road? The road is so wide that two people can pass through at the same time!"
"Look at what you said, it's a bit difficult for two people to cross such a narrow road. Please make way."
"What do you mean? You're bullying an honest man like me just because you're filming a show? This road belongs to everyone. It was built by the government, and anyone can use it. Is there anything wrong with me standing here?"
The crew members who were following the camera were very angry because they were both men and they knew each other well. The old man was calculating. With such a narrow road, there would definitely be skin friction between the two of them.
After the communication failed, Nan Tao and his group found a shady spot under a tree and waited for people to leave.
Seeing that the old man was still staring at them, Nan Tao said to the staff, "Do us a favor and stand in front of us."
The staff stood in a row in front of Nan Tao and the others. Qian Da saw that he couldn't see the spring scenery, so he cursed under his breath and kicked the stones on the ground. He stumbled and lost his balance, stepped on empty air, and fell from the upper path to the lower path. One of his front teeth was knocked out and his forehead was bleeding profusely.
Everyone heard the screams and turned to look over. Someone whispered, "Serves you right."
Netizens watching the live broadcast seconded the proposal.
[You damn old man, you deserve it.]
[Haha, this is the fastest retribution I have ever seen.]
[Tsk tsk, it's wrong to still be lustful at your age. You must be getting what you deserve.]
[It's so sad, but I'm happy.]
[This retribution came as fast as a tornado, catching people off guard.]
[Isn't that too much? He's just an old man. It's really mean to say that about him.]
"Your minds are filled with filth, that's why you see everything as filthy. This gentleman just has small eyes, so what gives you the right to say he's staring at people with lustful eyes?"
[Hehe, aren't those female celebrities wearing such skimpy clothes meant for people to see? Shouldn't they be allowed to see? I think this gentleman is right. The bad online culture is being fueled by people like you, who cyberbully others at every turn.]
[The roads built by the state are for all citizens to use. You female celebrities are so noble that you ask others to give way to you? Why don't you just go to heaven?]
[It's funny. Others can stand wherever they want. Why should they give way? The road was built by your family.]
This old man is so miserable. He fell like this, and was labeled a pervert, and was also cyberbullied by fans of a female celebrity.
[Who is cyberbullying? I'm just a bystander watching a variety show about children. Can't I speak out if I don't like it? Why do you like covering other people's mouths so much?]
[So, if I disagree with you, it's considered cyberbullying?]
The live broadcast was a mess among netizens. Where there is controversy, there is topic, and where there is topic, there is traffic. This incident even made it to the hot search rankings on Weibo and Doudou, attracting many people to visit the live broadcast room of the third season of "Mom Takes Baby to Travel". The highest real-time popularity even set a historical record for mothers taking babies.
Nan Tao and the others hated the old man, but they were not so cold-blooded as to ignore him. After communicating with the program crew, the accompanying medical staff gave the man a simple bandage.
Qian wrapped the gauze on his forehead and spat at the young man who was bandaging his wound. "You're not going on a good road, but you insist that I get out of the way so I can fall? What bad luck!"
The young man clenched his fist and was about to hit the old man, "Don't think I won't hit you just because you're old."
Everyone present was very annoyed. Seeing the old man's unfriendly eyes, they were afraid that their colleagues would be hit by him, so they stepped forward and stopped him, "Don't be impulsive, forget it."
Qian Da was afraid of being beaten, so he limped away cursing.
After the unpleasant episode, Nan Tao and her friends continued looking for a house.
The afternoon sun was hot and scorching, and everyone was tired and thirsty.
Nan Tao's voice was hoarse: "Isn't this too far? We haven't found it yet."
Wen Manqing: "It should be soon. I looked at the map above and it's almost here."
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the beach, which was covered with high and low, rugged and uneven stones of various sizes.
Nan Tao pointed to a place not far away and said, "I saw it. Over there, look, it's a small wooden house. Hey, why is there a pregnant woman over there?"
The distance was quite far, so I couldn't see what the person looked like, but I could tell from her bulging belly that she was pregnant.
It was such a hot day, under the scorching sun, and they were sitting on the rocks by the sea. Wouldn't it be hot? They were almost dying of heat.
As Nan Tao and her group approached, the pregnant woman's appearance could be seen clearly by netizens in the live broadcast room.
The woman had very fair skin and was very petite, with a figure that was very different from the local tough women. Her eyes were bright, big and round, and her expression was very innocent. She looked to be around forty or fifty years old, but she was still pregnant at this age, so she must be an elderly mother.
[You're still pregnant at such an old age. How much do you want to have a son? ]
Have you considered the feelings of other children in the family?
If I have a child at this age, I'll be in my sixties or seventies by the time the child grows up. Besides causing trouble for my other children, what purpose will it serve?
[This is too selfish. I'm not saying I'm depriving you of your reproductive freedom, but please raise your own children.]
[This woman looks quite pretty, but why is she so desperate that she insists on giving birth to a son for a man? In the end, isn't she suffering for it?]
[Why do I feel like she looks familiar, like I've seen her somewhere before.]
Doesn't anyone find this unusual? It's so hot, and a pregnant woman is sitting on a big rock by the sea. It's weird, isn't it?
[I'm a little scared. What's going on? I wonder if I've run into a ghost in broad daylight.]
[The guy upstairs, please don't scare me. I'm the most timid person.]
Wen Manqing was curious and looked over. "She's really a pregnant woman. What is she doing?"
Jiang Hui: "Looks like he's staring at the sea?"
Zhou Mei: "Want to commit suicide?"
Nan Tao: "That shouldn't be the case. She's still quite far from the sea."
The group walked for a while.
Nan Tao grimaced from the burns: "This stone is too hot. It burns my feet when I step on it."
Jiang Hui: "Indeed."
Wen Manqing: "Alas."
Zhou Mei: "Yeah."
Nan Tao held Yu Ze's hand and said, "You two can go rest in the shade over there and wait for me. Xuanxuan and Tongtong can't stand it either. I'll take Yu Ze over there. We'll come out after we put our things away."
Everyone nodded: "Okay."
Nan Tao took Yu Ze towards the cabin on the sea and suddenly heard her son's voice.
[You said she was a female college student who was admitted to a 985 university in a big city from the countryside in 1998? She was kind enough to give directions to someone at the station, but the person had evil intentions and abducted her home to give birth to a son?]
Nan Tao: “…”
What a shocking ghost story, so tragic.
In the 1990s, it was rare to be admitted to a 985 prestigious university, let alone a female college student from the countryside. This was an opportunity to bring honor to the entire family and change the fate of three generations.
But the result is...
Nan Tao couldn't help but look back at the pregnant woman again. From the moment she saw her until now, the pregnant woman had been sitting there without moving.
Why didn't she escape if she could? Was she willing to stay here? But with her bright future ruined, who would willingly be kept here to bear children?
Nan Tao couldn't figure it out for a moment, so she simply gave up and took Yu Ze into the cabin.
Just walked in, then walked out again, "It's too hot!"
Nan Tao was going crazy. How could anyone live in such a hot place? As soon as she entered, she felt like she was being roasted like a hard-boiled egg.
"Baby, Mommy is sorry for you, woooo..." Nan Tao wiped her tears sadly.
Yu Ze's face flushed red with sweat, and his forehead and cheeks were covered in sweat. "Mommy, it's okay, don't be sad. Let's put the things down quickly. It won't be hot when we come back to stay at night."
Speaking of the night, Nan Tao felt even more sad. "Maybe it will be as cold as the North Pole at night."
Yu Ze was silent, and despite his young age, a hint of sadness appeared on his face that was not in line with his age.
Nan Tao wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "I'll go in and put the things down. You just stand there and don't move."
It happened so quickly that Nan Tao quickly entered the wooden house and took a quick look. There was a bed, a quilt, a chair, two basins, and nothing else inside.
Quickly throw the luggage and bags on the bed and retreat immediately.
Nan Tao swung her feet in pain and said, "Let's go find your Aunt Huihui and the others."
Before leaving the cabin, Nan Tao couldn't help but turn her head to look at where the pregnant woman was, "Hey, she's gone?"
After meeting up with the main force, Nan Tao asked, "Is the pregnant woman gone?"
Jiang Hui: "She left in that direction, probably going home."
Zhou Mei: "Is the room hot?"
Nan Tao looked down at her feet and said resentfully, "What do you think?"
Wen Manqing comforted: "Fortunately, it's only three days. Just bear with it and it will pass."
Although Nan Tao was delicate, she was not the kind of person who would make trouble for no reason. With everyone's comfort, she quickly figured it out and said, "Let's go and find your house."
The group returned along the same route, but unfortunately, they ran into the annoying old man again on the way back.
"You little whore, who told you to sneak out?"
"Did that little bitch Qian Erniu let you out?"
"Wait until I get home, and I'll teach her a lesson!"
"Are you taking pictures of my wife?! Get out! You're not allowed to take pictures!"
