1838. Chapter 1838 Tracking Beyond the Great Wall 4
Banke opened the curtain and looked at the market at night. It seemed to be much busier than during the day. Her eyes were streaming, and when she reached a place, she actually shed tears.
Su Yin took out his handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her, "Why are you crying?"
Banke took the handkerchief and wiped away all the tears on her face. In just a few days of getting along, she had established a sisterly relationship with Su Yin, and now she didn't want to hide it.
"It turns out that my father took me here to beg for food. Then one year during the cold winter, he fell seriously ill. Some of the family's money was used to buy food, and some of it was used to help the poor. There was no money to hire a doctor. I didn't have much money.
Warm clothes, those few days when I came to beg for money for my father's illness, I almost froze to death. Fortunately, I was rescued by kind people. But in order to pretend to be blind, I didn't dare to look at him. I thought I was blind. Until now, I
I don’t even know who that person was, but he gave me money and clothes, but he still didn’t save my father’s life.”
Banke had cried and stopped crying. Now she was just talking and holding the handkerchief tightly in her hand.
Su Yin found that she only talked about her father every time, but never mentioned her mother. She must be a poor person, and she didn't know who she was.
The topic was raised, and Banke kept talking, "Our family is very poor, but at least I have a special look, so I can beg for some money. Plus, my father also has some jobs, so we make money. Except
I have to support myself and help some poor people. My father always said that everyone in the world is pitiful. I have never seen my mother. I think that my mother must be a normal person like me, with white and yellow eyes.
"
"Miss Su, do you know? When I was a child, I didn't even know that a person not only has a father, but also a mother. People who played with me called me little blind man, and some passers-by also laughed at me, but I didn't feel it at all.
What? They said it didn't matter to me, but they couldn't talk about my father. One time, a man came to the house and wanted to borrow money. My father knew that he was an alcoholic, so he refused to borrow money. He actually punched and kicked my father."
Seeing her enthusiasm, Su Yin didn't want to offend her nature, so she asked, "What happened next?"
"Later, I couldn't stand it any more, so I took a knife and wanted to chop him. Finally, he was so frightened that he peed his pants on the spot. My father was afraid that he would drag me into court, so he gave him the money he wanted to buy new clothes for me.
As a result, he kept coming to my house asking for money, and my father gave it to me. It wasn’t until my father died that he stopped. He didn’t dare to ask me for money anymore, probably because he was afraid that I would kill him again.”
Su Yin thought, there is everyone in this world, and we cannot expect everyone to be perfect. But having such a good father, Ban Ke is worth it.
Banke became more and more enthusiastic as he talked, not knowing that the sedan chair was slowly approaching the palace, "You don't know they thought I was blind and couldn't see anything. I have done so many things that made people laugh or cry. I can still remember them all vividly. Just take
At that time, I begged an aunt who was selling vegetables nearby and secretly took money from our rice bowls while my father was not paying attention. I was still young at the time and did not dare to say anything, so I told my father when I got home."
"Your father must have gone to her to ask for it!" Su Yin guessed.
"No, my father said that she was also a poor person. Her husband died young and she raised seven or eight children by herself. They were all still young and could not share anything for her. From then on, my father deliberately walked away once a day.
Huizi, I asked her to take the money, but once she took it, she stopped taking it, and she stopped coming to set up a stall there."
"Get off the sedan -" The palace gate arrived, and the leading eunuch shouted, interrupting Banke's words.
