Chapter 57 The Young Butterfly and the Young Boss and the Old Boss
Lao Chen asked his wife and Luo Pianying to help clean up the store, and then hosted Luo Qiu to his home upstairs.
This is a three-story self-built house. The downstairs is decorated as a store for business, and the upstairs is naturally occupied. There are many buildings of this style in the old city.
Lao Chen was a smoker, so he took a small amount of shredded tobacco from his pipe and put it on the pot, and started to light the fire in the pot.
"Luo Qiu...are you Luo Qiu?"
He wasn't sure whether the young man in front of him was the one he knew - especially after witnessing the miracle back then.
Maybe this is just the person called by that place to remind him, it's just an illusion.
Luo Qiu somewhat understood what Lao Chen was thinking. What he didn't expect was that Lao Chen's name appeared on the account book. The account had to be collected. The contract had been signed, and when the time came, it would come. Whether he came or not,
The results are the same.
The only difference was whether it was him or Youye who came.
It would be better not to answer this question.
After Luo Qiu was silent for a while, he slowly said: "Eighteen years ago, your wife and your son were supposed to die in a car accident. But you exchanged your soul for your son's survival.
By chance, I used the remaining half of my life to extend your wife's life for eighteen years."
Lao Chen slowly closed his eyes, as if reminiscing about those things. After a long time, he slowly breathed out and said: "Eighteen years, a white horse passed by, there is no need to mention the old situation."
As he said that, Lao Chen looked at Luo Qiu honestly, smiled and said: "I saw it on TV and thought it sounded interesting, so I read it out. If I had to say it myself, I can't tell... How much time do I have left?
?”
Luo Qiu said: "Three days."
Lao Chen suddenly said: "Are you free today? Let's have lunch here? I just ask you to eat steamed buns every time. In fact, the drunken chicken made by my wife is the best."
Luo Qiu nodded gently and said "good".
Lao Chen didn't seem to have any intention of asking Luo Qiu where he came from. When he learned that he only had three days left, he seemed quite calm. He just regarded him as an old neighbor whom he had known for twenty years and watched him grow up.
child.
"Sit down, I'll buy some food." Lao Chen said and went downstairs.
Luo Qiu looked at everything in the house, and suddenly a butterfly flew in from the gap in the balcony security net and came to him.
The beautiful golden-beaked swallowtail butterfly stopped and turned into a human-like Luo Pianqing.
"Eavesdropping is not a good behavior." Luo Qiu suddenly spoke.
Luo Pianqing said: "It's just that my hearing is better, and you didn't hide it deliberately...Boss, will you really die in three days?"
Luo Qiu nodded, looked at the old photos hanging on the wall and said, "Time has run out, so naturally it should end."
Luo Pianqing blurted out: "Can't you extend the boss's lifespan? He is a good person."
Luo Qiu then turned around and looked at the butterfly demon and said, "Yes, as long as someone is willing to extend his life, his life span will naturally be extended... Guest, do you have this need?"
"I..." Luo Pianqing hesitated to speak, and finally fell silent.
She has just emerged and has nothing to grow.
This thought flashed through my mind, but was stopped by instinct. The monster that had just entered a new stage obviously had a good impression of the old couple who showed kindness. But if you want to pay something, it seems that you still need to define what it is.
You should do what you should do and what you don’t need to do.
Luo Pianqing smiled bitterly and touched her chest and said, "It's so strange. I obviously have the urge to help the boss and the boss's wife, but in the end I feel a sense of fear."
Luo Qiu said: "At least I still have the urge."
Luo Pianying suddenly said: "Logically speaking, the boss and the boss's wife are the ones who have watched you grow up...don't you feel sad?"
Luo Qiu also asked himself this question when he came, but he didn't expect that soon someone...well, a monster would ask him the same question.
Boss Luo said softly: "If it hadn't been for these eighteen years, I probably wouldn't have even been sad, right?"
Luo Pianqing shook her head and said, "It's really hard to understand your human thoughts."
Luo Qiu also shook his head and said: "I may know more than you, but I don't think it is more than those old people who have lived for decades. What you don't understand, I don't understand either."
"Why?"
Luo Qiu said matter-of-factly: "Because we are still young, how can we really see through everything?"
At this moment, some noisy sounds suddenly came from downstairs.
Luo Qiu shook his head subconsciously, but the young butterfly demon next to him frowned: "It must be the boss's son. This guy came here again today."
"you know?"
Luo Pianqing shook her head and said: "We have met several times in the past few days. I don't know much about it, but it seems that someone is planning to take over the land. The boss's son plans to sell the small building, but the boss does not agree. In fact, there has been a quarrel
It’s happened twice.”
Luo Qiu frowned and said directly: "Go down and have a look."
…
…
Downstairs, two men in their thirties and forties were sitting in front of Lao Chen's wife. One of them vaguely looked like Lao Chen, probably his son. As for the other, he was dressed in a suit and looked like a successful white-collar worker.
person.
Lao Chen's wife was sitting sideways at the moment, not wanting to see the two of them looking the same.
Lao Chen's son said: "Mom! What era is it now? Why don't you and dad sell this place? This time they offered a high price, and with the money sold, you will also be able to enjoy a comfortable life!"
After all, he is his son. Lao Chen’s wife also said helplessly: “Your dad doesn’t agree, just doesn’t agree...Besides, I, I don’t want to sell it.”
The white-collar man next to him immediately said: "Auntie, actually you have nothing to disagree with. The pace of urban reconstruction is very fast now. Times have changed, and old things will pass away. There are actually benefits to selling them now.
, if there are too many people selling too late, the price will not be able to sell, and you will lose money. The aunt and uncle have worked hard in this place for decades. If the time comes when it is necessary to buy, they will just sell it at a low price.
, I think you two will also be heartbroken, right?"
"this……"
Lao Chen's wife was deaf and hesitant. She looked at her son and saw this man who was very talkative in the past few days and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"It's you little bastard again! Are you trying to instigate your mother while I'm not here? Get out! Get out of here!"
Seeing Lao Chen suddenly coming back and grabbing the broom at the door, looking like an evil doorkeeper, Lao Chen's son shrank his eyes and did not dare to look directly.
As for the white-collar man who accompanied him to persuade him, he frowned slightly.
Boss Luo happened to see a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes.
Lao Chen had been kneading flour for decades, and when it exploded, it was no different than the young people nowadays. Without thinking, he hit his son's feet with the broom.
Lao Chen's son hurriedly grabbed the man next to him, said a few words quickly and thought about it, and then ran out of the steamed stuffed bun restaurant in despair.
