Chapter 515 I don’t really listen to others
The nanny invited everyone into the house.
Except for Old Man Du and Tianbao, the other two were not polite.
The old man was like a fighting cock, stepping on the heels of the man who was pinching him.
Tianbao was not much worse off, but she was the one who was almost stepped on.
"That's enough. Even if we were old acquaintances, you should restrain yourself and don't get so close to me. I will beat you up regardless of whether you are a friend or a stranger." Tian Bao said with a sour face, squinting his eyes at the young man and whispering a warning.
The young man's peach blossom eyes were curved, and his voice was lazy and soft. "No, sweet baby, I can't control it. It's been two years. I'm afraid you'll disappear again."
Although it sounded like a joke, Tianbao turned her head to look at the smiling handsome face, but her heart suddenly ached.
Behind this smiling face, there is a deep pain.
Tianbao closed his eyes and let out a breath.
never mind.
She responds to soft words and does not respond to harsh ones.
"Don't step on me."
"good."
After entering the cabin, Mammy lit a candle at night for the first time in two years. It was a small piece of candle kept as a spare.
This is very expensive, so the nanny never wanted to use it in the past.
As the candlelight lit up, the interior of the room became clear, and it was very simple.
It’s a small space with only a small dining table and four small stools.
A small wooden cabinet that is less than knee-high and a small black iron pot.
There is no bed.
There was a corner in the room that was cleaned very carefully, with the bedding rolled up and placed there. It would become a bed when it was opened at night.
This place is near the sea and is also a fishing village.
The air was filled with the salty smell of sea water and dried fish, which was very unpleasant.
When they first ventured into Youshan together, they stayed in a small fishing town. At that time, everyone was disgusted by the smell and even joked that the bath water smelled like salted fish.
But Tianbao and the old man lived here for two years.
And there was the nanny, who had been taking care of two injured people for two years alone. The strong smell of salted fish could not suppress the herbal aroma in the room.
The two couldn't imagine how the nanny managed to survive, and how the old man and Tianbao managed to make it.
"Madam," Bai Yu looked at the kind old woman with silver hair and a small face, his throat choking, "Thank you."
"Child, what's there to thank? We've known each other for a while now, how can I just sit there and do nothing?" Madam Lu shook her head and laughed, "Besides, I entrusted Bing'er to you, and you've taken care of her all these years. If I really want to thank you, it should be me."
The old woman knew nothing about the space, the secret behind her resurrection, and how many years had passed since she had entrusted her child to someone else.
But she, Tianbao and Old Man Du have been here for two years, and Mr. Bai and the others have been taking care of Bing'er for at least two years.
In her opinion, her acquaintance with Tianbao and Bai Yu was more like fate.
It's fate between us.
The candle burned slowly during the conversation. After meeting again after the accident, there was so much to say.
From the changes in the Qiang tribe to the flood in Tubei Village that year, even if I only talk about the important ones, it would take a long time to finish.
During the narration, the four people's emotions kept rising and falling, with mixed feelings.
It was not until there was a crackling sound and the room suddenly became dark that the few people came to their senses.
"Mammy, Tianbao, Old Man Du, now that we've found you, let's go back together tomorrow." Bai Xiaofeng spoke in the dim light. "There are so many people in Tubei Village who miss you. Two years is long enough."
Tianbao nodded softly. Everything she heard just now was like a story, which made her feel unreal, but her chest was definitely filled with an unfamiliar sour feeling.
She felt at a loss.
"...I, I'll go and see if I really have so many disciples." The old man Du hesitated for a long time, rubbing his hands. Damn it, after hearing what the man surnamed Bai said to the boy from the Bai family, he thought back to his carefree days on the island in the past two years and felt that he was simply a sinner.
What is this?
How could grandpa think of himself like this?
He would go back and take a look. If Bai was lying to him... he couldn't be lying, right? It sounded too real!
The noisy commotion outside gradually died down. The fishermen put out the fire, and then, frightened and exhausted from half the night's work, fell asleep one after another.
It was late at night. After all, the nanny was old and couldn't stand the sleepiness, so she went to bed with Tianbao.
Bai Yu and Bai Xiaofeng were forced to squeeze into the old man's doghouse.
In the end, Bai Yu chose to be the gatekeeper.
The old man lay alone in his doghouse, tossing and turning.
The moonlight streamed in from outside, and when he opened his eyes he could see the tall man standing in the room. "You are really sick. You think my bed is not nice enough? Why don't you go to sleep outside? Do you think I can sleep while you are standing here?"
The tall man sneered, "You sleep, I stand up, what the hell is it to you?"
"Mr. Bai, there are no outsiders here. Tell me the truth, are we actually enemies?" The old man turned over and sat up, extremely distrustful of the tall man.
This time he really didn't dare to sleep, for fear that the moment he closed his eyes, the other party would do something to him and kill him.
"We have so many grudges against each other. I've recorded them all. I'll give you the account book when I get back. You can figure out how to repay them."
"I'm still your uncle... Come over here. I can't sleep anyway. Tell me more about Tubei Village."
Bai Xiaofeng was silent for a moment, but reluctantly sat down next to the old man. He turned his head and looked out the window through the palm-sized air vent at the night scene. "Really want to hear it?"
"I really want to hear it. Otherwise, it would be boring for us to just stare at each other. Tell me, Grandpa is listening."
"snort."
In the small room, the man spoke in a low voice about Fengyun City, the three major factions, the dilapidated temple where the old man was smashed, the connection between Tubei Village and Tianbao, and the group of indifferent turtles on Kongliu Island...
As the old man listened, his head tilted and he fell asleep on the tall man's shoulder, still laughing strangely, "Ahh... So the stinky girl is really my granddaughter, Tianbao..."
Bai Xiaofeng didn't move. He glanced at the messy hair that was plucking his neck, hummed again, and sat down with his eyes closed.
Outside the door, the young man in black robe leaned against the door frame, tilted his head and listened quietly to the breathing sounds coming from the other side of the door.
It is shallow, even and long, and it makes you feel at ease when you listen to it.
The moon set again.
The door behind me creaked and was gently opened from the inside.
The woman who came out made a gesture to him to be quiet and closed the door gently.
"Mammy's asleep." Tian Bao sat down next to the young man, hugged her knees with her hands, and tilted her head to look at him. "Your name is Bai Yu?"
Bai Yu also tilted his head to look at her, happy and greedy, "My name is Bai Yu."
"I can't remember. But you look better in white. You look so heavy in this dark outfit."
"I will change into white clothes tomorrow."
"Were you like this before? So obedient?"
"No." Bai Yu stared at her, his lips curved, his eyes deep and gentle, "I don't really listen to what others say."
Tian Bao raised an eyebrow, understanding, "I understand. The Hundred Warriors said that you have been defeated by me since you were a child."
After she finished speaking, the woman raised her index finger and shook it in front of him, saying arrogantly, "If you don't obey me, I will beat you up."
The young man laughed, and his laughter became more and more joyful. "Yes, I don't dare. Senior Sister is very fierce."
Tianbao held on for a moment, then curled his lips and bared eight white teeth.
Comfortable.
