Hearing Xiaoling's sad words, the old grandma sighed and touched her head and said, "Silly boy, grandma, can I still take care of you for the rest of my life?"
Sooner or later you will leave me."
At this point, the old lady suddenly looked at Chu Nan and Yudie and said, "You two young people, I am old and dazzled. I misunderstood you before, so don't take it to heart.
Look how handsome this girl is after she's dressed up. She's even prettier than the fairy in the painting. How could she be a begging homeless person...I made a mistake, I'm sorry."
"Grandma, don't say that, everyone has their downfalls sometimes.
We can meet you and help us at this time. It's too late to be grateful, so how can we blame you?"
Yudie smiled softly and said, "Grandma, we remember your kindness and we will definitely repay you in the future."
"No need for repayment, I just want to ask you for something."
The old lady said, "Can you help me find a good home for Xiaoling to take care of?"
It's really pitiful for this child to go to an orphanage. It would be better than anything else if he had adoptive parents to take care of him."
Unexpectedly, the old lady was so rude and directly made an embarrassing request.
Chu Nan and Yudie looked at each other and couldn't help but wonder, "Grandma, why is it that in such a big village, no good family is willing to adopt Xiaoling?
Xiaoling is cute and smart, how come no one likes her?"
The old woman had a complicated look on her face, and after thinking for a while, she shook her head and said, "I don't dare think about it in the village. After all, this place is backward. If Xiaoling wants to live a good life, she still has to go to the town... Besides, Xiaoling is a
A girl from a wealthy family shouldn't have to live a hard life."
"A girl from a rich family?"
Chu Nan said a little strangely, "Grandma, didn't you say that Xiaoling was picked up?
Then how did you know her parentage?"
"Hey, this is actually very simple.
I found Xiaoling when I was picking up rags in the town and rummaging through the trash cans. The swaddling clothes Xiaoling was wrapped in were made of fine silk fabrics. You can tell at a glance that her parents are not ordinary people."
When the old woman said this, she said pleadingly, "Her parents may have some unspeakable secret and abandoned her without leaving any note. Maybe if she can live in the city, she will have more channels to find her biological child."
parents.
Young man, can you help me and keep an eye on it when I get back?"
Chu Nan thought for a while and then said, "Okay, I will help you keep an eye on it when I get back. If there is any news, I will bring them to the village to have a look."
"Okay, that's good, then I don't have to worry."
The old lady suddenly smiled and said as if she was relieved, "It's getting late, old lady, I have to go to rest, and I have to go out to pick up garbage tomorrow morning.
You should also go to bed early, you have to rush to town and return to your hometown tomorrow."
After the old lady got up, she took Xiaoling back to her house, while Chu Nan and Yudie came to the small temporary room made for them.
Looking at the bed made of wooden planks and bricks in front of him, Chu Nan said with a squinty smile, "Yudie, it's getting late. A moment of spring night is worth a thousand dollars, let's take a rest early?"
How could Yudie not know that this guy was trying to do something bad? She immediately blushed and said, "No, grandma and Xiaoling are still in the other room. Don't do bad things."
Later I will sleep on the bed and you will sleep on the floor, and you are not allowed to touch me."
"ah?"
Chu Nan was immediately disappointed and said, "We only have one quilt. You let me sleep on the floor. Can you bear to see me get cold?"
"Okay, then we can share the same bed, but we must not cross the line, otherwise...ah..." Before Yudie could finish her words, she was picked up by Chu Nan and pressed on the bed... Lying on the bed
When Xiaoling heard the vibration coming from the next room, she couldn't help but feel a little strange, but she turned over and closed her eyes again and entered her dream.
"Woof woof woof!! Woof woof woof!!"
Late at night, a rapid barking of a dog came, which made Chu Nan faintly wake up from his deep sleep. When he opened his eyes and looked at Yu Die, who was sleeping next to him with a flushed face, he felt...
He hugged her happily and closed his eyes again.
However, not long after, there was a banging on the door, followed by Xiaoling's heartbreaking cry. Soon, the loud noises of the old woman and the man filled the whole room with an atmosphere of chaos and tension.
Chu Nan and Yu Die opened their eyes and woke up almost at the same time. They soon heard the sound of the old lady arguing with someone. They immediately lifted up the quilt, put on their coats, and rushed out of the room.
As soon as he opened the door, Chu Nan saw a scene that immediately made him furious! He saw a dozen farmers lighting torches and surrounding the old woman's yard. Xiaoling was wearing thin clothes and she was crying in fear.
Hiding behind the old woman, the old woman wearing only an old cotton-padded jacket had blood streaming from her forehead. She was pointing a hoe at these guys in front of her with trembling hands! "Get out of here, get out of my house!"
The old woman trembled angrily, "My family... doesn't welcome you Liu family members!"
"Old woman, why are you so stubborn?
If you don’t eat the toast, you will be fined with wine?”
Among the crowd, the middle-aged man at the head was smoking a cigarette and sighed, "When you wandered to Dayu Village, our grandfather granted you amnesty and allowed you to live in the village. Now you are repaying kindness with hatred. What does this mean?"
How did the old Liu family feel sorry for you?
If it weren't for my grandpa, you would have starved to death at the entrance of the village!"
"My wife, I, have always kept my kindness to you and the Liu family in mind. I think I have paid off all these years of working for you, right?"
The old lady said loudly and loudly, "I can help with everything else, but this is the only thing I can't do! Since the death of Mrs. Liu, your Liu family has been bullying men and women, buying and selling by force, relying on money and power.
Mischief is committed in the village, and the villagers dare to be angry but dare not speak out.
But my old lady dares to say it! If you dare to take Xiaoling away today, I will fight with you!"
"Haha, if you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink the wine as a penalty. How can you still stand up to that blow on the head?
You're such an old man that your life is so tough."
The middle-aged man waved his hand impatiently and said, "No matter how hard you are, don't stand in my way! I'm here to ask for Xiaoling today. I don't have time to waste time with you anymore because my son's condition has worsened!"
"
"Your son is retribution for your many evil deeds. My Xiaoling did nothing wrong. Why should she suffer this kind of torture?"
The old lady waved the hoe in her hand and said loudly, "Let me see who of you dares!"
The middle-aged head of the Liu family turned gloomy and said angrily to his subordinates, "What do you do for food?
If you can't even take care of an old woman, what's the use of you?
If anyone refuses to come, don’t blame me for turning against you!"
The surrounding farmers suddenly showed ruthless expressions, picked up their farm tools one after another, and rushed towards the old lady to snatch her away.
"Let me see who of you dares!!"
Chu Nan's words suddenly resounded throughout the courtyard, and then the Liu family was shocked to find that a young man and woman suddenly appeared in the house, and they all immediately became vigilant.
The head of the Liu family was also obviously stunned. He looked up and down at Chu Nan and Yudie who rushed to join the old lady Xiaoling. He frowned and said, "What are you two? Where did you come from?"
The old lady was also frightened at this time and said hurriedly, "Oh, what are you doing out here? This matter has nothing to do with you. My old lady can handle it, don't worry!"
"Grandma, look at what you said. Since you are willing to take us in, then we are a family. We are not heartless beasts. How could we just watch you and Xiaoling being bullied?"
When Chu Nan said this, he stared at the head of the Liu family with cold eyes and said disdainfully, "I can't do anything to you for a guy like this!"
