Chapter 166 Xiang Kunlun
A faint tidal smell can be smelled in the corridor, which is the smell accumulated over the years.
The white ash on the wall has fallen off, revealing the gray cement wall inside.
This house in the old building is very large, covering an area of 150 square meters.
The lighting is not very good, it seems a bit dim even during the day, and most of the tiles on the floor have lost their luster, and even have cracks and damage.
However, the wardrobe in the house is new and the walls are freshly painted and very white.
The blind old man in a long gown sat in a rocking chair with his crutch beside him, listening to the sound of TV and eating hot steamed buns.
His name is Xiang Kunlun, a very domineering name.
There was a squeaking sound of the key turning in the door lock.
"Dad, we are back and brought you food."
Two men entered the room. Their eyebrows were somewhat similar to Xiang Kunlun's, but they were just a little more philistine.
Xiang Kunlun said nothing and ate the steamed buns very seriously.
The two men ignored Xiang Kunlun and started busy in the room.
The second child was rummaging around in the house for something.
The boss opened the refrigerator and the smell of rotten food came out.
He had been wearing a mask since he entered the door, but even so, he was almost suffocated by the stench in the refrigerator.
He stuffed the food in the refrigerator into garbage bags and replaced it with new pork and vegetables.
Xiang Kunlun faced the kitchen and said:
"What are you doing with all this effort?"
The boss responded loudly:
"Dad, you raised me when I was young, and I have to support you when you grow old."
Xiang Kunlun took a bite of the steamed bun and said faintly:
"I am blind and can't cook."
The old man laughed and said:
“I saw on TV that the blind people can cook. Can you try it?”
The eldest son continued to be busy, while the second son rummaged from the bedroom to the living room, making a loud noise, like a bandit.
Xiang Kunlun swallowed his last mouthful of steamed buns and said:
“Stop looking for it, I have already donated this house.”
The second child refused to give in and fought to the death. Staring at Xiang Kunlun:
“Who did you hook up with?”
Xiang Kunlun said:
“A child from a poor mountainous area.
I have entrusted a lawyer to collect the house when I leave.”
The second child looked very ugly. .
His godfather is really capable.
You can't even take care of yourself, but you still take care of the children in impoverished mountainous areas?
I have been like this since I was a child. My family’s life was obviously average. Whose teacher didn’t make a lot of money in those days?
What’s the result?
As a father, I give tutoring lessons to my children for free. What’s the use of teaching some top students?
That’s all. I also help poor students pay for their books.
This pure Holy Mother, if he is the first to die in the end of the world!
The boss wiped his hands, walked to the living room, and said with a smile:
"Dad, I have put all the food for next month in the refrigerator, remember to eat it.
I'll leave first, please remember to call me if you need anything."
After that, he picked up his clothes and walked out of the door as if he was in a hurry.
"Wait for me! I have something to tell you!" The younger son quickly followed.
. . . . . .
In the corridor, the second eldest brother grabbed the eldest brother’s arm and said angrily:
“You have to give me a share of the money!”
The eldest brother looked unnatural. ：
"What money? Inheritance?
I don't want that thing. I am so good to our dad because I am filial."
The second child sneered:
"Are you filial?"
The boss became confident:
"I prepare ingredients for our dad every month, am I not better than you?
I also renovated the old house, and the wardrobe and everything are new."
The second child said scornfully :
“Forgot what I do? I’m the Sheriff!
Don’t think I don’t know that you bought our dad a life accident insurance six months ago!”
The eldest brother’s eyes were erratic:
“What’s going on?”
The second eldest brother crossed his arms and said:
“You clearly know that our dad is blind, and you still let him use it? Open fire?
Renovating an old house, it sounds nice, but I can’t smell the formaldehyde in the house?
Aren't you just expecting something to happen?
Brother, don’t forget that I am the sheriff and I have the right to arrest you. "
The boss panicked:
"Brother, my decoration company has not been performing well recently.
Don’t ruin my brother’s life! ”
The second child had a smile on his face:
"Then give me half of the money."
The boss could only nod.
The second child showed a satisfied smile:
“Okay, that’s it for today.
Several leaders came to the Imperial Capital today. I have to wait with the leaders and leave first. "
The boss raised his eyebrows:
"The leader of the imperial capital, come to our poor place? "
The second child frowned:
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. ”
. . . . . . In the old house, Xiang Kunlun was sitting on a rocking chair, muttering:
"The Chu girl is not coming back, the building is pillowed by the spring water of the creek
The moon is bright, and the wind is blowing. .
Eight-line script, a thousand-mile dream, a wild goose flying south. "
While chanting, his calloused hands beat on his legs, as if he was humming a song about missing his old friend.
"Dong, dong, dong. "
There was a knock on the door.
Xiang Kunlun's hand paused.
Two sons forgot their keys at home?
Even if the child has all kinds of faults, the father never wants the child to be unable to return home.
Xiang Kunlun stood up shakily, using a cane, and fumbled to open the door.
Ye Fan stood outside the door, clasping his fists and bowing:
“Old sir.”
Xiang Kunlun shook his head:
“If you don’t have money, you won’t buy health care products.”
As he said that, he was about to close the door.
Ye Fan quickly said:
"Sir, I misunderstood, I am not a salesperson.
I am. . . . . . "
He thought for a while and said:
"I am a teacher in the mountains. "
The word "teacher" made Xiang Kunlun's expression much softer.
Xiang Kunlun invited Ye Fan into the room and sat down in the rocking chair:
"Teacher, sit wherever you like."
Ye Fan frowned.
The floor tiles are broken, but the walls are new, and there are several empty wardrobes in the house.
He is allergic to formaldehyde and wants to sneeze when entering the house.
How many years will an old man live in a place like this? Will he get sick?
Xiang Kunlun asked:
"What do you do, teacher?"
Ye Fan came back to his senses and said with admiration:
"My name is Ye Fan, I heard that Mr.
Every one of Mr.’s students is good.
Even a few students were able to publish their compositions in the national selection of outstanding compositions for primary and secondary schools, which is amazing! "
Xiang Kunlun was indifferent to this and shook his head:
"It's all the children's efforts and talents. Being a teacher is just to guide the correct way of learning. "
Ye Fan admired Xiang Kunlun even more:
"Can Mr. Xiang go to our mountain to take classes?
Food and accommodation are included, and the salary is easy to negotiate. "
When Xiang Kunlun heard the word 'class', his blind old eyes suddenly burst into light:
"You mean I can still go to class? ”
He didn’t mention a word about the benefits. His first thought was that he still had a chance to return to class!
Ye Fan said quickly:
"If an excellent teacher like Mr. Xiang is willing to come to our mountains, we would love it!
The environment in the mountains is difficult, but I don’t know Mr. Xiang..."
Xiang Kunlun said with a smile. :
“If it wasn’t hard, would you still find a blind old man like me?”
Ye Fan asked cautiously:
"So, what do you mean?"
Xiang Kunlun sighed:
"I don't know how many years have passed, but I still want to teach!
Money doesn't matter, food is included Just live there, I just want to give lectures to the children.”
Ye Fan was pleasantly surprised:
"You agree?"
After saying that, a look of suspicion appeared on his face again:
"Aren't you afraid that I am a bad person?"
Xiang Kunlun shook his head with a smile. Headshot:
“Is there anything worth cheating on me, a bad old man?
The fact that you can find me, a blind and half-hearted teacher, to teach you means that you really have no choice but to suffer. "
Ye Fan thought to himself:
"It's true that there is no way. It's really hard to describe the suffering. The life of those monsters in the mountains is much better than that of the cows and horses in the city. "
Xiang Kunlun asked:
"When will we go? ”
Ye Fan said:
“Look at you, old man!”
Xiang Kunlun asked:
“What is the name of your village?”
Ye Fan said casually:
"Taoer Mountain."
Xiang Kunlun frowned and thought.
Taoershan?
Why haven’t you heard of such a place?
Xiang Kunlun stood up:
"Then now, Teacher Ye, help me get some clothes from the back room."
Xiang Kunlun seemed to be more anxious than Ye Fan.
Ye Fan asked:
"Don't you need to inform your children?"
Xiang Kunlun was silent for a moment and said:
"No need."
