Chapter 221: Artist Dabin
After Uncle Jiu left, the silver smith shop became much quieter. I had to be busy with the craftsmanship business and build silver jewelry according to customer requirements. No one made Wei Lai laugh anymore, and Wei Lai was obviously not as happy as before.
But the children do not seem to know how to be sad and parting. Although they have less laughter, they are still running around in the walker car.
Seeing that she was not affected by Uncle Jiu's departure, I let her go!
Half a month after Uncle Jiu left, Wei Lai finally learned to call him dad! That day I was busy working on a customer's jewelry. Wei Lai was probably hungry and slid to me with two little hands pulling my clothes into my mouth. Ah ah!
I was busy with the work I was working on and didn't look at her. She probably felt a little anxious when she saw that I didn't react. She slapped her little hands and jumped in her calves. In desperation, she called out her father and two sons. Although the screams were not very clear, I could feel that she was calling her father.
My heart suddenly felt warm, and I threw down my work and carried Wei Lai out of the walker.
Wei Lai quietly drooled and opened his mouth lightly, and shouted again: "Dad...Dad, eat!"
I was immediately overjoyed. This little thing really learned to call her dad without any instruction. You know, I have never taught her to call her dad. She just heard the word dad since Uncle Jiu teased her!
After a long time, she probably knew that the man in front of her should be called Dad!
Seeing that I was just hugging her and laughing, Wei Lai called again, and it was still those three words. Then I realized that the little thing was hungry. I couldn't help but sigh. Before I knew it, Wei Lai could already express her meaning by speaking, instead of crying!
I hurriedly put her back on the walker, got up and made her milk powder. The little thing followed me far away, tilting her little head and looking at me preparing her lunch.
A month later, Wei Lai began to leave the walker. She was able to hold the corner of the wall by herself, or she could walk by herself just by putting two fingers on her shoulders. In a few days, she wouldn't even need this!
Although she often has unstable steps, she can no longer go anywhere she wants without any assistance.
During this period, General Wei, Wei Lai's best partner, seemed particularly sensible, and served as the guardian and witness of Wei Lai's toddler. It would always run to her when Wei Lai fell, and Wei Lai grabbed the hair on its body and stood up by himself!
Once, Wei Lai was lying on the ground because he ran too fast. General Wei hurriedly ran to her when he saw this. But for some reason, Wei Lai was lying on the ground this time and looked at the ground in front of him with his head raised.
I was sitting on the workbench beside me and was about to pull her up when an amazing scene appeared!
General Wei arched Wei Lai on the ground with his claws and his head was raised. Seeing that Wei Lai still had no intention of getting up, it lowered its head and held Wei Lai's back collar with its mouth and raised its head to pull up Wei Lai who could not be fooled!
I was shocked when I saw this scene! Is this! still a dog?
Since then, I have never treated General Wei as a dog again. When I eat, I will give it a portion separately and let it eat it at the same time as us, instead of letting it wait for us to finish eating before preparing leftover food for him.
I will wash its food bowl every time after eating! In my heart, it is already an indispensable member of my family!
When Wei Lai was one year old, he could walk very steadily and rarely fall again.
On my birthday, I went to the cake shop to buy a small cake. Although Wei Lai had never seen a cake, he probably told me intuition.
He told her that this round thing must be delicious. He moved to the table and stared at the cake with a gaze. His saliva flowed unconsciously to his chin.
In order to make Wei Lai's first birthday solemn, I specially inserted a candle into the cake to light it.
I picked up Wei Lai and approached the cake and told her to blow out the candle. Wei Lai could understand what I said. She really pouted and blew at the candle, but because her mouth was too open and blew for several times, it only made the flame slightly bent.
She might know that if she didn't complete this ceremony, she would probably not be able to eat cake. After several failures, she was in a hurry to sip in her mouth and prepare to spit on the candle in order to achieve the effect of extinguishing the candle. I was so amazed and moved her away.
Seeing that she was anxious to eat the cake, I stopped teasing her anymore. I pinched the corners of her mouth with my hands, leaving only the middle of her little lips, and asked her to try again. This time it really worked and it was successful!
Wei Lai giggled happily when he saw the candle finally extinguished!
Another member of our family appeared at this time since Uncle Jiu left.
Just as I pulled out the candle and was about to cut the cake, I accidentally turned around and found him!
If he hadn't been carrying a travel bag above his head and a guitar cross-body on his shoulders, I would have almost regarded him as a beggar!
He stood at the door of the silversmith shop like that, his face was lonely, his skin was shining black and shiny, and his beard was unshaven! His hair, which was longer than his shoulders, was tied into pieces, and his clothes were so dark that God knew how long it had not been washed.
I was curious and didn't bother to cut the cake. I hugged Wei Lai to the door. Before I could get close to him, I smelled a strong smell of sweat. The little Wei Lai was so smoky that he turned his face away.
I can already guess his expression and outfit. Who has not had a dream of wandering around the world when he was young and ignorant?
But I was young and frivolous and did not know the sufferings of the world. I thought that a little talent could support my dreams. I didn’t know that once I really walked on the road, I realized that ideals were far from reality, and I accidentally fell into this way!
"Is there anything you have?" I asked politely.
"I haven't eaten for two days! Can I... can I give me some food?" He said with a timid expression and embarrassment. After saying that, he was almost embarrassed and didn't know where to put his hands!
When I heard what he said, I saw his shy look and couldn't help but laugh.
I wanted to tease him, so I pretended to ponder and didn't say anything.
When he saw that I didn't speak, he probably thought I wanted to get something from him, so he immediately added: "I don't have money! But I can sing, can I sing a song for you?" After saying that, he looked at me with anticipation.
Seeing his appearance, I didn't want to tease him anymore, so I said, "Okay, today is my daughter's first birthday. You sing a song for her. If I can make her laugh, I will treat you to a cake!"
The young man was immediately overjoyed and nodded repeatedly!
I let him into the house, and the three of them sat down around the cake. He began to play the guitar and sang a birthday song for Wei Lai!
The kind Wei Lai didn't know that this person was here to share her cake. He smiled with face as soon as he started singing. He stretched out his little hand with great interest and wanted to go forward and touch the things that made wonderful music.
When the young man saw Wei Lai laughing, he was even happier. After singing the song, he turned to look at me.
I had cut the cake, and after I divided some of it for Wei Lai, I nodded to him and told him that he could eat it. The young man was probably so hungry that he stopped talking nonsense to me anymore.
, pick up the plate and cut it into pieces, pick it up and eat it!
Looking at his eating photo, I remembered a word: Hungry wolf pounced on food! It was so appropriate to use it at this moment. A huge cake was stuffed into his stomach in a few bites, and then he looked at me again, and his expression seemed to say again: Can I eat more?
I smiled and nodded. With my permission, he made a large piece again. A cake that was not big was gone. When he wanted to reach out for the third time, Wei Lai, who had not eaten the first spoon, had stopped working. He stomped his feet and let out a sharp scream on his face to protest.
The young man's hand that had just reached out suddenly froze in the air, and his expression suddenly became awkward! He laughed dryly and retracted his hand in disappointment!
Looking at Wei Lai and me again, he said embarrassedly: "Sorry! Haha, I am so hungry!"
I held back my smile and smiled at him without objection, "You can bear it first, this little cake is left for my daughter. I'll get some food for you, and you can sit for a while!"
The young man felt even more embarrassed when he heard this, but he did not refuse. It seemed that he was really hungry. His face was nothing compared to hunger in his stomach. He laughed dryly as an answer.
So I went to the kitchen to stir-fry a large bowl of fried rice for him. He thanked him and took the bowl and lowered his head to eat it. I felt sad when I saw it.
So this guy named Dabin, who claimed to be a genius musician, became a member of our silversmith shop. That day, he told me that he was hiking all the way to Tibet. When he set off, he was a group of people, and as he walked, he was the only one left.
Because they agreed when they set out that no one would bring a penny, and they had to make a living by selling their skills until they reached the westernmost part of the motherland, and then continue to walk in another direction until their footsteps traveled all over the country! This is an affirmation and interpretation of their great musical dream!
So these genius musicians set out with confidence and a clear and dreamy heart. However, what happened later became very exciting. They found that the farther they walked, the further they felt they were from their dreams!
The original unity also collapsed with hunger in his stomach. Before he could walk a few hundred miles, someone turned around and went home. The more he went, the more miserable the team became. Until he was the only one left. Although he arrived, it was no different from a beggar. That is, when I saw him, I was sure that all he thought was food. As for the dream, I was afraid he had already seen it!
After he had dinner that day, I asked him where he was going next. He replied that he liked this place and wanted to stay here for some time. I asked him what he wanted to rely on to support his life. He thought for a while and finally smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "I thought I could support myself by singing, but I didn't expect that no one would want to listen to my singing!" He looked extremely sad, and seemed to finally realize that dreams were just dreams after all, and I couldn't even exchange a steamed bun in front of reality!
So I invited him to stay in the silversmith shop for the time being, but the premise was that he had to clean himself first, and he agreed happily. So after I gave him some advice on Cang Yongcuo's direction, he took a piece of soap from me and walked towards Cang Yongcuo with his backpack.
When he came back, he seemed to have become a different person. Only then did I realize that this young man is quite handsome, and he looks like an artist after he is clean!
