Chapter 2725 Stray Dogs
For example, does the other party recognize him?
Then you will miss the opportunity to recognize the other person.
There would be no such scene now.
The elegant old man was very happy.
Compared with when I was young, I have made progress.
I was also very happy to see my former high school classmates again.
…
"I live near here."
The elegant old man's eyes lit up slightly.
"If you have time next time, would you like to come over to my house after shopping?"
The elegant old man extended an invitation to the old man and his companions.
…
The old man was stunned.
The companion muttered.
"I do have time."
For retired people.
The most indispensable thing is time.
Of course, in a sense, what they lack most is time.
After all, they can be said to be the ones with half a foot in the coffin.
ah.
Bah bah.
What half a foot?
Not half a foot.
They will grow stronger with age.
There is still plenty of time.
…
"ah."
The elegant old man quickly thought of something.
"Are you going back to open a teahouse?"
There was obvious regret on his face.
It’s a rare encounter...
He wanted to talk more with his former high school classmates.
But since the other party has something to do...
"Then next time we-"
…
"it's okay no problem."
The old man waved his hand.
"I gave the teahouse to my son a long time ago."
"I'm just helping my son."
"We haven't seen each other for decades..."
Of course catching up with old classmates is more important.
"I'll call my son."
"Just tell him."
…
"good."
The wrinkles at the corners of the elegant old man's eyes relaxed.
…
After that chance encounter at the farmer's market, the old man resumed contact with the elegant old man.
The elegant old man also came to Xiao's Tea House again after many years.
…
On this day, I originally made an appointment with the old man to play chess as a guest at the elegant old man's house.
The elegant old man lives in the suburbs.
It's a long way from a teahouse.
For the two old people, no matter which way they go, the journey is very long.
The elegant old man came to the teahouse last time.
This time I went to the elegant old man's house instead of the old man.
It was just that the elegant old man called the old man the night before they agreed to meet.
This meeting was canceled.
As for the reason...
The elegant old man is sick.
Now is the time for climate change.
Most likely to get sick.
The elegant old man fell into the trap accidentally.
…
It's just a little cold.
But to be on the safe side, the elegant old man asked the old man not to come to his house until he recovered from the cold.
The elderly are physically weak.
It is easy to get infected.
He didn't want to infect his illness to the old man.
…
The old man accepts the sentiment of the elegant old man.
He is no longer a young man.
He knew what the elegant old man said was right.
He would not say that he had to visit the elegant old man intentionally to show their friendship.
However, he is an old man and his resistance to illness is weak.
What about young people?
Young people are in good health and have strong resistance to disease.
Anyway, the elegant old man lives alone in the suburbs -
His children all live in the city.
Originally, the elegant old man lived in the suburbs with his wife.
That is a courtyard.
There are flowers and grass.
The air in the suburbs is fresh.
Also quiet.
There isn't much noise from traffic.
The two old men lived contentedly.
But the previous year, the elegant old man's wife fell ill and passed away.
The elegant old man was left alone.
…
The elegant old man is accustomed to suburban life.
He rejected his children's suggestion that he move in with them.
He lives alone in a house in the suburbs.
Children occasionally come to see him.
He also has a dog.
He picked it up outside the house when he came back from outside one day when it was raining.
The soaked hair clung to the big dog's bony body.
Obviously, this is a stray dog.
…
Stray dogs have big eyes.
But very godless.
Rain slipped from the corners of the stray dog's eyes.
Like crying.
The elegant old man couldn't help but paused in pushing the door.
…
After hesitating for a while, he turned around.
After a few steps, he squatted in front of the stray dog.
The umbrella was tilted to protect the stray dog from the falling rain.
…
The stray dog did not hide.
He didn't show any defensive look.
Just looked at him quietly.
It was as if he was too tired to react in any way.
Even if soaked by rain.
Those eyes were still dim and obscure.
…
This is an old stray dog.
The flame of life can be extinguished at any time like a candle in the wind.
…
The elegant old man and the stray dog stayed in the rain for a long time.
He is hesitating.
He has never had a pet.
He didn't know if he wanted to cause such a big trouble for himself at such an old age.
…
The rain stopped.
The elegant old man still had not made up his mind.
Realizing that he had stayed in the rain with a stray dog for such a long time, the elegant old man smiled bitterly.
He shook his head.
His brows were still furrowed into a knot.
He put away his umbrella.
After taking one last look at the stray dog, he returned to the house.
…
At night, the elegant old man thought about stray dogs again.
He pushed open the door and walked out.
…
The stray dog was still lying there.
The posture was exactly the same as when he saw it in the morning.
…
That stray dog simply seemed... waiting for its foreseen fate.
There was no resistance or struggle.
…
The elegant old man couldn't help but tighten his hand on the door handle.
He couldn't bear it.
A little angry again.
He doesn't like taking his life so lightly.
Whether they are humans or animals, everyone should try their best to stay alive.
He thought of his wife.
In the last period of time, my wife worked hard to eat every day.
Even if I always vomit after eating.
Try to smile at him every day.
Even smiling doesn't look good at all.
…
My wife works so hard to live.
I want to spend a few more days with him.
…
My wife is gone.
He was the only one left.
He listens to his wife.
Live happily.
Live hard.
Live seriously.
Especially recently he has made new friends.
He is very happy.
…
The elegant old man closed the door.
A few seconds later, the closed door was opened again.
…
The old man's children came to visit the old man again, but unexpectedly discovered a strange member of the old man's family.
A very old dog.
I saw them but had no reaction.
Stop shouting.
Even the movement of lying down has not changed at all.
This made them wonder, is this still a dog?
Why aren't you alert at all?
…
They somewhat disliked this big dog.
If a refined old man wants to keep a dog, they can buy him a better dog.
Not only can it accompany elegant old people.
You can also look after homes and nursing homes.
The elegant old man lives alone in the suburbs, and it is safer to have a dog.
…
The elegant old man rejected the children's kindness.
This big dog is destined to him.
Just this big dog is fine.
After hearing the children complaining that this big dog couldn't even bark, the elegant old man smiled.
