Chapter 159 You're Not Really Cowardly
"grandfather."
Dong Hesong was sitting in a rocking chair in the yard with his eyes closed. When he heard Dong Xiaomei's voice, he immediately stood up and saw Dong Xiaomei running towards him, with Ye Jiawu following not far behind her.
"Aren't you going to play with Zhiqiu?"
Dong Hesong rubbed Dong Xiaomei's head: "Why are you back again?"
"I miss grandpa. I'm worried about him being alone at home."
Dong Xiaomei helped Dong Hesong sit down and squatted beside him: "Grandpa, is your foot better? Do Uncle Zhang and the others come over these days?"
"He's almost well. Your Uncle Zhang has a lot of things to do every day, so I won't let him come over for the time being."
Dong Hesong raised his eyes to look at Ye Jiawu who walked into the yard. Ye Jiawu stepped forward and said, "Hello, Grandpa. I am Ye Jiawu, the cousin of Sister Zhiqiu."
"My sister was worried about me coming back alone, so she asked Xiao Wu to take me back."
Dong Xiaomei grabbed Dong Hesong's hand and angrily talked about what happened on the road.
Dong Hesong and Dong Xiaomei had different perspectives. He reminded Dong Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, if you come back by yourself, no matter what happens on the way, don't delay, especially this kind of thing, don't worry about it, do you hear me?"
"No, if you want to come back next time, you have to tell grandpa in advance and grandpa will pick you up."
"Grandpa, no need."
"No, you have to promise grandpa."
"Okay, Grandpa, I promise you."
Ye Jiawu said, “Grandpa, if Xiaomei wants to come back in the future, I will take her back while I am resting.”
“This road is indeed unsafe.”
Along the way there were either sorghum fields, corn fields, or woods, which were good places to hide people or do illegal things.
Dong Xiaomei also realized what Dong Hesong was worried about at this time. She turned her head and looked at Ye Jiawu: "Grandpa, let Xiaowu send me off from now on. Don't pick me up. It's quite far."
"Xiao Wu, thank you for your help."
"Grandpa, it's not a problem. If my sister knew, she would let me do the same."
After Ye Jiawu and Dong Xiaomei finished dinner with Dong Hesong, they had to rush back.
"Grandpa, take good care of yourself at home, and don't hide anything from me."
"Okay, take care of yourself too, and don't let grandpa worry."
Dong Hesong looked at Ye Jiawu and said, "Xiaowu, you two should drive slowly and be careful."
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will protect Xiaomei."
Ye Jiawu directly sent Dong Xiaomei back to the art troupe. Dong Xiaomei took out a small bottle of medicinal oil from her bag and handed it to Ye Jiawu: "You will inevitably get injured when practicing martial arts. This is what my grandfather soaked to treat injuries."
"It's exactly what I need, Xiaomei, thank you."
"Thank you for nothing. You will be responsible for sending me home from now on. Remember?"
"Remember."
Ye Jiawu left Dong Xiaomei the phone number of their martial arts school: "If you want to go home, tell me in advance."
"good."
Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.
Not long after Ye Jiawu and Dong Xiaomei left, He Bin also went home.
His only real relative is He Weijun. Although the father and son have not spent much time together, he still has deep feelings for He Weijun.
"dad."
"Xiaoxiang is back." He Weijun was visibly happy to see his son.
"Hurry up and sit down. Dad will cut some watermelon for you."
He Bin stopped He Weijun and said, "Dad, stop cutting. I can't eat anymore. I just drank two bottles of soda and now I'm full of gas."
"My sister didn't buy it. Some idiot bought it. It's a waste if you don't eat her things."
"Who?" He Weijun believed in He Bin's character and would not treat others like this for no reason.
"The person who bullied my sister in the past is now my sister's friend. My sister forgives her, but I will not forgive her easily."
"Xiao Xiang, if you do this, your sister will be stuck in the middle and it will be difficult for her to handle it."
He Bin smiled very proudly: "My sister is on my side. She saw it, but she didn't say anything to me."
"Your sister is on your side, so you can't make things difficult for her."
"You also said that the man bullied your sister, not you. Your sister didn't care. That man must have touched your sister with his sincerity. People who admit their mistakes and correct them can't be bad."
"Dad, I know my limits." He Bin stood up and said, "I'm going to burn incense for my mother."
"Mom, I'm back."
He Bin lit three incense sticks, knelt down and bowed to Gao Xiu, took out a few candies from his pocket and placed them in front of Gao Xiu's photo: "Mom, this is what my sister bought for me. I left it specially for you."
He Weijun smiled with relief.
"Dad, you have it too."
He Bin took out a few more pieces and handed them to He Weijun. He Weijun waved his hand and said, "I don't like this. You can give it to your mother. She likes it."
"OK."
The father and son had a lot to talk about. If He Bin said something inappropriate, He Weijun would never blame or scold him. And no matter what He Weijun said, He Bin didn't dislike it and would listen to the reason.
He Weijun and He Bin read for a while. He Weijun looked at his watch and said, "Xiaoxiang, why don't you eat at home this afternoon? Dad will go buy some meat and make dumplings for you."
He Bin shook his head: "Dad, making dumplings is too troublesome. Besides, it's so hot today, why eat dumplings?"
"So what do you want to eat? How about daddy take you out to eat?"
"Eat whatever is at home. If there is nothing, just eat sesame noodles."
Seeing that He Weijun was a little disappointed, He Bin changed the topic: "Dad, why don't we eat steamed buns? Steamed buns are easier to make than dumplings."
He Weijun put five yuan in his pocket and said, "I'll go buy some meat now."
"Dad, I'll go with you."
After buying half a pound of meat and half a pound of fennel, the father and son were almost at the entrance of the alley when He Bin heard someone calling him, "Brother Xiang!"
He Bin paused, lowered his head and quickened his pace, but he didn't expect the man to catch up and grab his arm: "Brother Xiang, I called you for a long time, why didn't you respond to me?"
"I was thinking about something. I didn't hear you."
He Bin pulled his arm out and turned to look at He Weijun: "Dad, you go back first."
He Weijun looked worried, but didn't say much: "Xiao Xiang, come back soon."
When He Weijun left, the people around him were shocked: "No, Brother Xiang, why did you change your father?"
He Bin didn't explain much to this person, and asked him directly: "Second son, what do you want from me?"
"Brother Xiang, someone is bullying the brothers." Erzi rolled his eyes and said, "That bastard even scolded you, saying that you..."
"What did you say about me?"
"It's just about your family's problems." Erzi pulled He Bin over and said, "Brother Xiang, we've made an appointment with him to meet at the cinema entrance the day after tomorrow night. You can come too."
"I won't go, Erzi, I advise you not to go either."
"What? Brother Xiang, did I hear you wrong? He scolded you and bullied our brothers, and you didn't go!"
"Fighting is not a good thing."
"Brother Xiang, you are not really scared, are you?"
"Whether you are a coward or not is not something you can prove by fighting. These are just trivial matters. There is no need to compete with each other."
He Bin patted Erzi on the shoulder and said, "Erzi, if you lose, you'll get hurt, and if you win, it's not a glorious thing either."
