Chapter 1650 The Old Man’s Monologue


Chapter 1650 The Old Man’s Monologue

The old man suddenly raised his head, still a little frightened.

"...Xiao-Xiao?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, then slowly called out the name of the young man opposite.

"It's me."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

……

"Then..."

The old man is quiet.

She unconsciously looked behind Xiao Xiao, looking for something.

But soon, a slightly disappointed look appeared on her face.

There was nothing behind Xiao Xiao.

In other words...

The old man's heart tightened.

"Xiao Xiao, that... child..."

The old man changed his name, "Monster..."

"Little devil..."

The old man changed his name again, as if he was afraid that Xiao Xiao wouldn't understand who she was talking about.

"It..."

"It won't be here again."

Xiao Xiao took over the old man's words.

The old man was stunned.

The voice trembled slightly, "Yes, is it..."

"It..."

The old man closed his mouth.

She was a little afraid to continue asking.

It turned out that she actually knew it in her heart.

From the moment she chose to leave, the child's fate had been decided.

Just...

"That child..."

The old man said in a low voice, "You have been with me for many years."

"I lost my son, my wife, and my grandson."

"The old man is gone too."

"My wife is the only one left in the whole family."

".Home is still the same home."

"No one inside is here."

"I feel bad."

"It's uncomfortable...it's like I'm used to it."

"It's not that uncomfortable anymore."

"I'll go downstairs for a walk."

"I fell in love with feeding the cats."

"Later, the child came..."

"The child doesn't look good."

“I was shocked at first.”

"I don't know why, but the child seemed very happy when he saw me startled."

"I don't know whose child that is."

“I’ve never seen it in the community before.”

"Although the old lady is getting older, her memory is getting worse and worse."

"But if you see such a unique child, you will never forget it."

"But the old woman didn't care."

"I'm just thinking that with this kid's appearance, he probably doesn't go out much, right?"

"The next day, the old woman met the child again when she went to feed the cat."

"It just sat quietly next to the old woman, watching the old woman feeding the cat with a curious expression."

"I started talking to it."

"Gradually, we became familiar with each other."

“But basically it’s the old lady nagging.”

"It's rare to find a person who has the patience to stay with the old lady."

"I'm actually very happy."

"Especially later on, I even wondered if this child was my grandson who couldn't bear to worry about grandma and changed his appearance to stay with her."

"It's about the same age as my grandson when he left."

"Even the heights are similar."

"The difference is that my grandson is much cuter."

A smile finally appeared on the old man's face, "Everyone I met praised my grandson for how good he is and how cute he is."

……

"The kid is always alone."

The smile on the corner of the old man's mouth faded, and there was a bit of sigh in his voice, "I think maybe it was isolated from other children because of its appearance."

"And I have never seen the child's parents." "I wonder if the child's parents also dislike the child's ugly appearance and don't like it?"

"This child is just like me. He is alone."

"I feel more pity for it."

"I always thought he was a good boy."

The old man looked at the slightly shaking light spots on the ground with a dazed look on his face, "I'm not in good health."

"Can't stay outside for long."

"I usually go back after feeding the cat."

"But after getting to know the child, I wanted to spend more time with it."

"I didn't want the kid to know that I was not well."

"But..."

The old man smiled bitterly, "I can't control my body."

"Sometimes the wind blows and I start to cough."

"The cough is pretty bad."

"The kid knows I'm not well."

"If you stay with me for a long time later, I will leave on my own."

"The first time I thought something had happened."

"Later, I gradually understood the child's kindness."

The corners of the old man's eyes curved slightly.

"It will also sit in the wind and help me block the wind."

"One time it rained, I don't know where the child picked a large banana leaf from, and covered my head."

She still remembered her mood at that time, and couldn't help but laugh. After all, the child looked really funny at that time.

Such a small body, such a big banana leaf.

She almost thought the banana leaf was blown by the wind.

Who would have thought there was a villain underneath.

But, rather than being funny, what she felt more... was warmth.

She wanted to take the child home at that time.

Her home is close, just a few steps away.

Let the children take shelter from the rain, and also help them wipe their faces and bodies that are wet by the rain.

But when the child saw her taking the banana leaf, he turned around and ran away.

She couldn't stop screaming.

She thought the child had gone home.

Although I was a little worried, I could only turn around and go home.

That piece of banana leaf is still kept in her home.

Every time she saw that banana leaf, she couldn't help but smile.

This is a child's affection for her.

……

"It's really a good kid's."

The old man murmured, "Why..."

The old man stretched out his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes.

The eye circles are slightly red.

He was obviously the child who helped her out of the grief of losing a loved one... He was obviously such a considerate child...

"Why..."

The old man took a deep breath and shook his head, "I don't know..."

"It turns out that the inexplicable high fever among the children in the community was because of it."

She has lived in this community for a long time.

She has always heard about the children in the community.

I was a little worried, but didn't take it to heart.

But after having a grandson, she became a little concerned.

She once met a mother who had lost her child on her way back from grocery shopping.

She had met this mother many times in the past, holding her child's hand in the morning to send her child to kindergarten.

She had no interaction with them.

Just the scene of mother and son holding hands always makes people smile.

She remembered the mother and son.

She still remembered that not long ago she saw that child carrying a brand new schoolbag and a bright smile on his face.

The child has entered primary school.

Unexpectedly, bad news came a few days later.

The child's mother was extremely haggard.

Her red and swollen eyes had obviously been crying for a long time.

They are moving.

Leave this sad place.

At that time, she just looked at the young mother through the comforting crowd, feeling sad.

Unexpectedly, she also lost her grandson soon.

Not just her grandson, but also her son, her daughter-in-law.

Her world collapsed in half in an instant.
