Chapter 50
There was no sun in the afternoon, the sky was a bit overcast, the wind started to pick up, and the rain was still in the stage of falling but not yet falling.
In the long hot summer season, this is a rare and comfortable break.
Li Sanjiang was leaning on a wicker chair, holding a cigarette in his left hand and holding a teapot in his right hand. An old-fashioned radio wrapped in a wooden box on the wall was playing the news.
Li Zhuiyuan sat next to him, lowering his head and eating watermelon.
In the news, the situation in the Middle East is being broadcast.
Li Sanjiang sat up, put the cigarette butt into the Jianlibao jar filled with water, and then picked up the jar and shook it.
"Master, eat melon."
"Eat it, I'm not greedy."
"The melon is not sweet."
"Oh, okay."
Li Sanjiang picked up a piece of melon with a smile, thinking that his great-grandson had deliberately tricked him into eating it.
After taking a bite, he immediately cursed:
"I asked him to choose a good one for me, but he kept knocking on me and chose a bad one for me.
Well, the rest will be given to Runsheng to eat later. ”
"Brother Runsheng and the others have it."
"There is not enough for them to eat. In the past, Runsheng ate more, but now Zhuangzhuang's appetite has also been increased."
"Brother Binbin must be using his brain lately."
That morning, when I handed a whole book of math problems to Tan Wenbin, although I couldn't see it, I could feel the air stagnant for half a minute.
Tan Wenbin hesitated to speak many times, but finally endured it.
However, he left the math problem book there at the beginning and didn't read it at all.
After he started learning tools with Runsheng, and Li Zhuiyuan also took the time to talk about the basics of fortune telling, Tan Wenbin realized:
Some things you want to escape will always be waiting for you on the road of life.
He originally thought he had opened a brand new door, but when he actually entered, he discovered that this door was shared with the college entrance examination.
Before, he would have never imagined that he would have to pass mathematics, physics and chemistry first to learn to make a living.
However, long-winded lectures on indoctrination are indeed no better than a visit to a dead man's house for a meal.
He finally picked up the math problem book and started doing it.
His academic performance was average, and this question was difficult, so he did it very slowly, but at least he didn't give up again.
This also caused his appetite to increase recently. He was very happy and felt that he was growing his brain.
"Speaking of which, why are there still wars over there?" Li Sanjiang picked up the handkerchief next to him and wiped his hands. "I remember they were fighting when the People's Republic of China was first founded. At that time, banners were hung in the villages with big words in support of them and against the empire. ism.”
"Well, it seems like I've been fighting for a long time."
The news broadcast ended and the next program started. The male and female hosts started chatting and talking about reading.
The male host gave an example: There is a nation that respects knowledge very much. Adults will smear honey on books, and children will feel that knowledge is sweet when they flip through the books.
He also said that respect for knowledge and science is the reason why this nation is still full of vitality after wandering for two thousand years.
The female host echoed her sentiments, praising it as the most intelligent nation recognized in the world.
Li Sanjiang scratched his neck with the handle of the cattail fan and said, "Isn't it right?"
"Huh?"
"Xiao Yuanhou, tell me, how did the most intelligent nation manage to wander for two thousand years?"
"Master, you are right."
At this time, Ali walked up from the stairs, holding a big bowl in his hand.
Smelling the smell of Chinese medicine, Li Zhuiyuan knew that it was time for him to drink medicine.
He took it from Ali's hand, put it in front of him, picked up the spoon, and started drinking it one bite at a time.
When she just had a nosebleed earlier, the medicine Aunt Liu boiled for herself was relatively mild. Since she became blind, the medicine has become much stronger and even tastes numbingly bitter.
Li Zhuiyuan could only comfort himself while drinking. The good medicine tasted bitter.
Li Sanjiang looked at the girl with a smile and nodded.
After drinking the medicine, Li Zhuiyuan said hello to Li Sanjiang and led Ali back to his room. He went in first and took out three bottles of milk.
Li Sanjiang has made a lot of money these days. When the three Niu family members went to funerals, they all invited him to fast.
Originally, when he heard that the three brothers and sisters of the Niu family had died at almost the same time, he felt a little worried. He always felt that it was because he had not managed his death well last time.
But firstly, these three brothers and sisters have a bad reputation in the village. Secondly, their families know best how they died.
Before a person dies, he or she thinks of killing him so that he can be freed quickly, but when the person dies, they, the younger generation, become afraid, for fear of following in the same footsteps.
They all hurriedly came to invite Li Sanjiang to have a meal, and the red envelope was generous.
Li Sanjiang went there. The meal was held on the same day, and he had to do three jobs in one day. The money he earned was so comfortable.
Then, he immediately bought a lot of food and drinks for his great-grandson.
In Li Zhuiyuan's house, snacks are placed in cabinets and drinks are placed in boxes.
If he hadn't stopped him in time and said enough, it wouldn't be long before he could compete with Aunt Zhang in the village to open a canteen.
Li Zhuiyuan didn't like to drink this milk, it just had a slight milky taste, mainly saccharin taste.
However, Ali's first collection box was already filled with Jianlibao. Now that he has just opened the second box, it is natural to put some new things in it.
The boys and girls each held drinks and sat on wicker chairs.
I already played chess in the morning, but I won’t play any more in the afternoon.
Li Zhuiyuan lowered his head, facing the empty small table, and read a book.
His eyes are still blind, but he can still read the book. After reading the book, it has been stored in his mind, and now he can read it again and regurgitate it.
Ah Li probably knew what the boy was doing, so she sat close to him like before.
Every time Li Zhuiyuan "turns the page" in his mind, he will habitually "look" at her, and she will also look up and look back. The two people have a non-existent eye contact.
Just like this, I saw dusk and the sky was getting darker.
Aunt Liu shouted: "It's time for dinner!"
Li Zhuiyuan stood up and stretched slightly. This way of "reading" is also very good. You don't have to worry about the brightness not being enough to hurt your eyes.
After going downstairs to eat, Liu Yumei said: "A-Ting and I will take A-Li out tomorrow morning."
When Li Sanjiang heard this, the chopsticks he just picked up slipped down.
"Try to come back the day after tomorrow."
Li Sanjiang picked up the chopsticks, wiped them on his sleeves, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Runsheng said: "It's okay, I'll cook."
Li Sanjiang scolded: "You want us all to follow you and become popular? In the past two days, I have been cooking porridge with pickles, which is just right to clear my stomach."
After dinner, Ali went into the house to take a shower, and Liu Yumei waved to Li Zhuiyuan.
Li Zhuiyuan didn't respond.
Only then did Liu Yumei react and shouted: "Xiaoyuan, come here."
"Here we go, grandma."
"Would you like some tea?"
"Grandma, drinking tea just after eating is not good for the stomach."
"It's nothing more than finding a reason to talk."
"Then you say."
"Logically speaking, I shouldn't take Ali out of here now, but tomorrow is a special day and I have to make this trip again."
"Grandma, this is your family matter, and Ali really should go."
"Have you guessed what we are going to do tomorrow?"
"How is it possible?"
"Haha, if your eyes were not healed, I should have taken you out for a walk, but I guess you are not in the same mood now."
"Grandma, you don't have to worry about me."
"Okay, that's it. Ating will cook the medicine for tomorrow and tomorrow in advance. Remember to take it on time."
"Yes, I will."
Li Zhuiyuan walked back and stopped when he passed by Runsheng and Tan Wenbin.
Runsheng sent a small stool behind Li Zhuiyuan, and Tan Wenbin helped him sit down.
The TV series "Chen Zhen" is playing on the TV, starring Liang Xiaolong.
Runsheng was tying up paper while reading, while Tan Wenbin was doing the questions.
Li Zhuiyuan heard the "swish" sound of the pen on the calculation paper, and couldn't help but said: "Brother Binbin, you can go to my room later to take down the lamp and use it."
"Okay." Tan Wenbin nodded, you're welcome, Xiaoyuan doesn't need it now anyway.
Runsheng likes to move the TV to the dam outside the house at night and watch it while working. This makes cleaning easier.
There is a pole outside the house, and a light bulb hangs out. The brightness is enough, but the angle is not good enough.
Runsheng asked: "What will Ali and his family do when they go out tomorrow?"
"I don't know, there must be something wrong."
In fact, Li Zhuiyuan probably guessed that Liu Yumei should have gone to visit the graves of Ali's parents.
He realized very early that Uncle Qin and Aunt Liu were not Ali's biological parents, they were just in name.
"Xiaoyuan, are you free tomorrow?"
"School hasn't started yet. When will I be free?"
Tan Wenbin whispered: "You are free now that school has started."
"I passed by the town market when I was delivering paper during the day, and I found that someone had set up a small stage there to talk about storytelling. There were people of all ages listening below. I asked, and they will be there tomorrow. Xiaoyuan, I will take you with me tomorrow. Go and listen.”
"Okay."
Li Zhuiyuan didn't want to offend Runsheng's kindness. He was also trying to have fun for himself who couldn't see him.
The next morning, Li Zhuiyuan deliberately got up very early, but when he walked downstairs to the east room, he still felt the lock on the door.
Liu Yumei and the others should have left early in the morning.
I leave early so that I can come back early.
Li Zhuiyuan simply found a bench and sat on the dam.
"Ah, Xiaoyuan, you woke up really early." Runsheng rubbed his eyes and got off the table, "I'll make breakfast."
"Brother Runsheng, let's go to the town to eat."
"That's it, I'm going to put the instant noodles on the stove, so that when the uncle gets up, he can cook the noodles by himself." Runsheng walked into the kitchen and quickly ran out, patted Tan Wenbin awake, and urged, "Get up and wash up. , let’s go to town.”
Tan Wenbin yawned and nodded even though he was not full of sleep.
After a brief arrangement, Runsheng rode a three-wheeler and drove Li Zhuiyuan and Tan Wenbin to Shinan Town.
There were several tables set up at the entrance of the breakfast shop, and the three of them deliberately chose the most remote table because Runsheng wanted to smoke cigarettes.
Li Zhuiyuan ordered three bowls of wontons and three drawers of small steamed buns.
Li Zhuiyuan originally wanted to scream more, but Runsheng stopped him.
When the wontons and steamed buns were served, Li Zhuiyuan asked with concern: "Brother Runsheng, are you full with such a small amount?"
"Xiaoyuan, look what this is."
Li Zhuiyuan's hand was stuffed with a dry and hard tablet by Runsheng. When he groped for it, he could feel the roughness and small holes.
"Steamed bun slices?"
"Wow." Runsheng shook the bag in his hand, "Hey, I brought a big bag, which is just right for soaking in wonton soup."
"Brother Runsheng..."
"Xiaoyuan, you eat yours and I'll just try it. It's not like you don't know how big my appetite is. How can I eat freely in an outside shop? Isn't that a waste of money?"
"Give me some, too." Tan Wenbin reached out, grabbed a handful, and put it over. He would probably say boldly, "Eat whatever you want, I'll treat you." But now he can't, because they weren't familiar with each other before, but now they are good friends.
Li Zhuiyuan took a hard bite of the dried steamed bun slices without moving them, and finally put them in a bowl to soak.
Next to him, Runsheng chewed the food crunchily. During this period, he and Tan Wenbin refilled the bowl of soup with the boss.
"Huh... comfortable."
"Hiccup..."
After the two pot-bellied men finished eating, they each patted their bellies. They must have lifted up their shirts, because the sound was very muffled.
"Hey, what else? Give me a piece too."
Li Zhuiyuan's ears twitched slightly, and for the first time he heard the Nandu call in the announcer's voice.
"There are two more pieces." Runsheng picked it up and handed it to him.
"Okay, that's enough."
The man sat down at the same table with a bowl of noodles or wontons, and then opened a lid. The smell of fermented bean curd and a bit of spiciness soon filled the air.
Tan Wenbin sniffed his nose and asked: "Why is your fermented bean curd so sexy?"
"This is Sichuan style fermented bean curd, with chili pepper added."
Another broadcaster spoke Sichuan dialect.
"Hey, you were the storyteller on stage yesterday." Runsheng slapped his forehead, "I didn't even recognize you without your robe."
"Hey, are you here to listen to books today?"
"No, I came here specially."
"Hey, that's your honorable guest. It's still early for the start. If you are willing to order me a cup of tea, I will start talking to you three after I have breakfast."
"Okay." Li Zhuiyuan agreed.
The man finished breakfast and said: "Please."
The three of them followed him to the foot of the stage. The stage was very rough. It was just a few cabinets built into a small platform, with two sails hanging behind it.
Runsheng went to a small shop to buy a bottle of mineral water on the way. When he came back, he saw Li Zhuiyuan taking out the money and handing it to the storyteller, who took it with a smile.
Only then did Runsheng realize that ordering a cup of tea meant giving a tip, rather than stupidly buying a bottle of water.
The money is actually not much, just two cans of Jianlibao.
The storyteller did not go on stage, but sat down on the wooden bench he had set up below, face to face with Li Zhuiyuan and the other three.
He first made a simple opening statement, introducing himself as a job seeker with a surname of Yu Mingshu. He first arrived in Guibao and wanted to make friends and gain knowledge.
Next, he started to talk about storytelling, which was about Qin King Li Shimin's great defeat of Dou Jiande in front of Hulao Pass.
Since the audience was three young people, he did not use Nanhua dialect but Mandarin. The story was told in a rhythmic and exciting way, and he also used some ventriloquism skills.
Runsheng and Tan Wenbin were fascinated and clapped their hands from time to time.
As Li Zhuiyuan clapped along, he was wondering in his heart, which kind of master came here to experience life?
This person is obviously not from the local area, but he can learn the local dialect immediately when he goes to a new place, and his talk is truly genuine.
Although the traditional culture market is currently experiencing severe shrinkage and downturn, such a person will not be allowed to wander in the world.
The climax of the story is when Li Shimin led the Xuanjia Army to repeatedly attack Dou Jiande's Chinese army. The story ends when Li Shimin returns to the court in victory and is awarded the title of General Tiance.
The story is wonderful and the interpretation is exquisite. In the summer, it feels like eating a large piece of ice-cold sweet watermelon, which makes you feel refreshed from head to toe.
Although invisible, it gives the ears a real enjoyment, and it is also a small private area facing each other. The money is well spent.
Li Zhuiyuan put his hand into his pocket again.
"Farewell, I've given you tea. They're all not working to earn money, so how can I accept your rewards? Besides, haven't I already given you two slices of steamed buns?"
"That's really good." Li Zhuiyuan said sincerely.
"That's ridiculous. Are your eyes okay, kid?"
"It will be fine." "That's good, what's your name?"
"Li Zhuiyuan."
"Li Zhuiyuan, Li Zhuiyuan, is his surname always Li?"
"What if?"
Tan Wenbin asked, still unfinished, "Can you tell me another paragraph?"
"I can't talk anymore, I have to save it for the main event at noon."
Tan Wenbin nodded: "Then we will wait."
"Hey, there's no need for that. I talked about this part at noon. I just added more water. I talked about Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng in Li Tang Dynasty, and then talked about Wang Shichong in Luoyang City. It's okay if you don't listen."
< br>
"That's a shame, what about tonight?"
"The same thing is this section, there is more water."
Tan Wenbin: "..."
"I go out to eat, and I only have so much food in my stomach. How can I take it all out? Besides, there are very few people here who can listen to several shows a day. Those who have such free time usually don't have the money. .”
Li Zhuiyuan asked curiously: "Master Yu, where are you from?"
"Child, are you asking about my hometown?"
"Yeah."
"I can't really say where I come from. My parents left early, and I have been walking along the Yangtze River since I was a child, from the mountain city to Jingchu and then to the estuary, walking back and forth all year round.
According to this, my hometown should be on this river. ”
Li Zhuiyuan had a smile on his face, as if he heard a very interesting answer, but his heart sank silently, because he had heard a similar answer from Liu Yumei.
"It's still early, so I'll tell you a little scary story."
"Okay, okay." Runsheng applauded.
"I like hearing this." Tan Wenbin clenched his fists excitedly.
Yu Shu started to talk.
As soon as he stood up, Li Zhuiyuan sensed that something was wrong. The background was in the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty. The protagonist was a scholar. On the way to Beijing to take the exam, the boat capsized and fell into the water. He was rescued by a lady named Bai. The scholar admired her and called her "Li Zhuiyuan". She is the empress of the Bai family.
Before the other party could continue, Li Zhuiyuan covered his eyes and took a breath: "Brother Runsheng, Brother Binbin, my eyes hurt so much. Take me back to drink medicine."
If it were for other things, the two of them would definitely not leave now, but when it came to Xiao Yuan's eyes, the two of them immediately did not dare to delay. After saying goodbye to Yu Shu, they immediately got on the tricycle and rushed home with Xiao Yuan on their backs.
On the way back, facing Runsheng and Tan Wenbin's concerned inquiries, Li Zhuiyuan chose to express his concerns.
"Brother, my eyes don't hurt. I doubt that person's identity."
We have already talked about the Bai family empress. If we continue talking, they will inevitably fall to death, and then the expressions of Runsheng and Tan Wenbin will change and the other party will see it.
This is also the reason why Li Zhuiyuan pretended to have eye pain and left the game early.
After listening to Li Zhuiyuan's story, Runsheng, who was riding a bicycle, sighed: "This is like meeting a colleague."
Tan Wenbin was stunned for a while and asked doubtfully: "Are all people in our industry so versatile?"
Runsheng replied: "You also have talents, you can tie paper."
Tan Wenbin rolled his eyes: "Thank you."
Although Runsheng and Tan Wenbin were surprised, they were not frightened. First, they had never experienced what happened to the Bai family, and second, they did not know Liu Yumei's true identity.
The former involves the personal privacy of Brother Liangliang, and the latter involves the secrets of the Qin and Liu families. It is inconvenient for Li Zhuiyuan to tell them without permission.
When I got home, I found that my grandfather was not there. The instant noodles on the stove had been eaten. He must have gone out.
The three of them continued to do their own things, Li Zhuiyuan continued to "read", Runsheng watched TV, and Binbin did the questions.
At lunch, the master didn't come back either, so Runsheng cooked porridge.
At dinner time, the master still didn't come back, so Runsheng cooked porridge again.
Although it is good to eat porridge, it is difficult to switch from luxury to frugality. When Aunt Liu is away, everyone's quality of life seriously declines.
Moreover, without Aunt Liu's "morning, noon, and evening" meal, Li Zhuiyuan felt that his biological clock was a little out of whack.
When eating porridge in the evening, Tan Wenbin said suspiciously: "Hey, it was Uncle Li who suggested eating porridge, and it was also Uncle Li who didn't come back and went out to beat the teeth as a memorial."
The grandfather did not come home, but everyone was not too worried because Li Sanjiang was often left to eat and drink on weekdays.
On a quiet summer night, Runsheng and Tan Wenbin continued to chase "Chen Zhen".
Li Zhuiyuan sat next to him, doing eye exercises before going to bed. When he was able to press his temple chakras to scrape his eye sockets,
From the village road in the distance, the sound of cars and motorcycles could be heard.
As if he had been shocked by an electric shock, Tan Wenbin turned over and sat down from the TV to the small table where his homework was placed. With a "pop" sound, he turned on the desk lamp and immediately switched to meditating on the questions and answers.
Runsheng turned around, glanced at him, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Li Zhuiyuan guessed: "Brother Binbin, is Uncle Tan here?"
"Yeah!"
He recognized the sound of his father's motorcycle. When he was watching TV secretly at home when he was a child, he would immediately turn off the TV and do his homework when he heard the sound.
However, after waiting and waiting, no motorcycles were seen coming, and no one was seen walking onto the dam.
Runsheng asked doubtfully: "Your father doesn't want you?"
"Your father doesn't want you anymore."
"My dad never wanted me."
"Fuck, you cheated."
After a pause,
Tan Wenbin added: "I'm sorry."
Runsheng smiled: "Hehehe."
Tan Wenbin stood up: "My dad didn't come here for me. Xiaoyuan and Runsheng want to see if they can. There may be another case in the village."
Runsheng shook his head: "No, the excitement will continue immediately after the commercial."
"I'll go with you, Brother Binbin."
"Okay, let's go, Xiaoyuan."
Tan Wenbin took Li Zhuiyuan's hand and walked out. When passing Aunt Zhang's canteen, Tan Wenbin asked where the cars and motorcycles that passed before went.
Aunt Zhang was eating melon seeds. She glanced northwest and said, "Heading towards the old bearded man's house."
On the way to Big Beard's house, Tan Wenbin asked with some worry: "Brother Xiaoyuan, what do you think my dad and the others were doing there? Could it be possible that the matter was discovered?"
"I don't know." Li Zhuiyuan shook his head.
If something were to happen, the identity of the dead water monkey in the car would have been revealed.
Several police cars and motorcycles were parked outside Big Beard's house, and the policemen were shining with flashlights.
But there shouldn't be anything visible now. The fish pond has been filled in, and the large area above it has been planted with saplings.
"Hey, brother Xiaoyuan, I saw Uncle Li, he is on the dam."
"Is my grandpa okay?"
"It's okay. He's not cuffed. Uncle Li is still smoking."
"Binbin? Is it Binbin?"
"It's me, Uncle Zhao."
"Hey, why are you here?"
"My relative's house is here, and I'm staying at his house for fun."
"Okay, I'll call your dad."
"Uncle Zhao, help me tell my dad that Xiaoyuan came with me."
"Oh."
After a while, Tan Yunlong came over.
"Dad!" Tan Wenbin waved enthusiastically.
"Go to the side." Tan Yunlong ignored his son, came to Li Zhuiyuan, and whispered, "Someone is coming from above. In the morning, we went to the police station to pick up your grandfather. We had dinner together at noon and went to a few places together in the afternoon. The places, Xiting Town and Shigang, are the places where your grandfather retrieved corpses.”
"Uncle, who is he?"
"I don't know this, but I'm probably not a criminal investigator."
"Is there something wrong with my great-grandfather?"
"It's okay, just come and understand the situation, be a guide, and tell us what happened at that time. This house and the surrounding places are all in your grandfather's name, right?"
"Yeah."
"Don't worry, it's okay. We'll finish the team soon."
"Thank you, uncle."
"Thank you. It's not about handling a case, and it doesn't involve any confidentiality regulations."
A familiar voice came from not far away: "Okay, thank you for your hard work. We have been running with you all day."
Immediately afterwards, Li Zhuiyuan heard the conversation between his grandfather and the man: "Uncle, you have worked really hard today."
"Yes, yes, let's work together."
"You should go back and rest early."
"You too, haha."
This voice is Yu Shu.
"Hey, kid, why are you here?" Yu Shu spotted Li Zhuiyuan.
Li Zhuiyuan asked: "Hey, Mr. Storyteller, why are you here?"
"No one came to attend the lunch session, so I closed the stall and started working part-time."
Yu Shu said, squatting down in front of Li Zhuiyuan, reaching out and touching Li Zhuiyuan's head:
"Kid, is your home here?"
Li Sanjiang came over after finishing his cigarettes. When he saw this scene, he immediately said: "This is my great-grandson. Haha, this house will belong to him from now on."
"Your great-grandson?" Yu Shu looked very surprised, "Dear?"
"Of course, his name is written in my will."
"Oh, yeah, he's a pretty smart kid, I like him very much."
"No, my Xiao Yuanhou is very smart."
"Okay, Uncle Li, I'm leaving. I'll treat you to a drink when I have the chance."
"It's easy to talk about."
Tan Yunlong took the initiative to walk towards Yu Shu and asked, "Do you have any other plans for tomorrow?"
"No, nothing happens here. It's very clean. I'll leave tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work, Captain Tan."
"I just follow orders."
The police at Big Beard's house have already dispersed. Li Sanjiang took the two of them home. On the way, Li Sanjiang kept complaining about the inexplicable situation today. In the morning, he was invited to the police station by a police car. In the afternoon, he traveled to several places. Finally, the village came.
However, it wasn't completely fruitless. The man also stuffed a cigarette into his mouth.
As Li Zhuiyuan listened, he was thinking about the identity of the storyteller. Obviously, the storyteller was his part-time job. Maybe it was rare to have such a high level of part-time job.
However, taking a step back, since the other person can work with the police, he is definitely not a bad person.
You don't have to worry about it here.
Back home on Bazi, Runsheng was still tying up paper and watching TV.
Li Sanjiang walked over and knocked Maolizi, and Runsheng just smiled.
Tan Wenbin sat down, skillfully picked up the cane and began to tie the paper. At the same time, he regretted: "If I had known better, I would have brought my homework book with me."
Just as Li Zhuiyuan was about to go upstairs, his ears twitched and he whispered: "Brother Binbin, go back and do your homework quickly."
"Huh?"
His mouth was still making doubtful sounds, but his body dropped what he was doing due to inertia. He turned sideways again, sat down at the small desk, picked up a pen, and started thinking.
Soon, Tan Yunlong walked onto the dam.
When Tan Wenbin heard the familiar footsteps, the corners of his mouth curled up silently.
Unexpectedly, Tan Yunlong came over, slapped him on the back of the head, and cursed: "You are fooling the devil!"
Tan Wenbin felt aggrieved and thought to himself: Dad, I study so hard, why do you still misunderstand me?
"Crack!"
The next moment, Tan Yunlong pressed the switch and the desk lamp turned on.
Tan Wenbin: "..."
Runsheng moved the TV outside to watch, and the light from the TV was enough to work.
Tan Wenbin was used to accompanying Runsheng to do his homework, but because Xiaoyuan lent him the desk lamp, he no longer turned on the light bulb on the pole above.
Therefore, from his father's perspective, he was almost doing homework in total darkness.
Tan Yunlong brought a bag of things and put them down. They were some folk medicines that his wife had specially obtained.
He carefully screened it and it was non-toxic.
"Xiao Yuan, I just forgot to give these to you. You watch and eat them."
"Well, thank you Uncle Tan. My eyes are almost healed. I will have to ask Uncle Tan to take me to register for school."
"Of course, we will go when your eyes are healed. The school over there has also said that you can go anytime, it depends on your mood."
"Well, okay, Uncle Tan."
Tan Yunlong turned around, and before he was about to leave, he stopped in front of his son, picked up the exercise book on the small desk, and opened it. The problem-solving process was densely written on it.
"Dad, this is the question Xiaoyuan gave me."
"Well, study hard." Tan Yunlong put down his notebook, touched his son's head, and left.
Runsheng watches the TV station every night.
After the fixed color screen appeared on the TV, he turned off the TV and turned around to see that Tan Wenbin was still doing the questions.
"Aren't you asleep yet?"
"You go to sleep first, I'll do it for a while."
"Oh."
Runsheng took a shower and went to sleep.
When I woke up in the morning, I found no one at the round table next door. I turned around and found Tan Wenbin sleeping soundly on the small desk, still holding a pen in his hand.
Runsheng walked to the puppy cage and touched its head.
The little black dog opened his eyes and glanced at him, then continued to turn over and sleep.
Runsheng muttered: "It's useless."
After Li Zhuiyuan woke up, except for coming down to eat porridge, he spent the rest of the time sitting on the terrace on the second floor.
He had been "watching" "Liu's Qi-Wang Technique" and "Qin's Jiao-Viewing Technique" for several days in a row. He felt that he might be able to gain a new understanding of the art of Feng Shui even if he could not see with his eyes.
It turns out that he thought too much.
After these days of rumination, he figured out two things. First, those "blind" fortune tellers were generally unreliable; second, he must protect his eyes.
Tonight, Li Zhuiyuan waited outside for a long time, but did not wait for Liu Yumei and the others to come back.
Hearing the "beep" sound of Brother Runsheng's TV set downstairs, Li Zhuiyuan also walked into the room, did some eye exercises, and then lay down to sleep.
When I wake up, I habitually open my eyes again and look sideways.
He saw a girl in a white dress and a hairpin sitting there very dignifiedly.
My first reaction was that she was still so pretty.
Then it’s:
Oh,
My eyes are healed.
