Chapter 1775 The child’s fear
"Of course it's true."
The old man smiled and shook his head, "Can grandpa still lie to you?"
The child was about to smile with joy when he suddenly thought of something and turned to look at the old lady aside.
"That"
The child hesitated to speak.
The two hands couldn't help but get mixed together.
The old man blinked at the child clearly, "Grandma and grandpa have the same opinion."
The same means
Really? !
The child looked like he wanted to be happy but also a little unsure.
Seeing this, the old man looked at the old lady and said, "Old lady, if you don't show your attitude, the children will not be happy."
The old lady glared at the old man slightly.
Then he touched the child's head lovingly and said, "Your grandpa is right."
"You can play with the tiger."
Although she said this, the old lady's mood was still a bit complicated.
The child's narration and the old man's past memories made this ridiculous thing become a reality.
The tiger she cannot see
Isn't this really fantastic?
The old lady took a long breath in her heart.
Even if it is unbelievable, there are various signs that the tiger is real.
No, it is very likely to be true.
Because she couldn't see it, the old lady couldn't completely believe that the tiger was real.
However, looking at the child's rosy cheeks due to excitement and the joyful light in his eyes, she thought, since the child likes it, why should she stop it?
The old man's words were her biggest basis for making concessions.
Although the child met the tiger twice, he was not injured each time.
The tiger also helped the children a lot.
Playing with the kids again.
But.
It is a tiger after all.
A man-eating tiger.
If the tiger is in a bad mood, wouldn't the child be in danger?
But the old man's words raised another guess.
Even if it's a tiger.
It's no ordinary tiger either.
Whether it's an elf or a monster, it shouldn't get out of control easily.
Beasts are feared because they have no sense.
If it is a special creature, it is a different matter.
The old lady thought a lot.
Seeing the child's face lighting up because of her words, she thought that what she did was right.
"Thank you, grandma!"
The child shouted happily.
All problems are gone.
From now on he can play with the tiger.
The old lady smiled and shook her head, "Okay, grandma is going to cook."
Because she was thinking about her children, she could not calm down to cook.
A dish was also burnt.
In order not to waste food, she put out the stove fire.
Now that the child is back, Tiger's matter has been settled, and she can cook with peace of mind.
"You guys wait a moment."
"The meal will be ready soon."
The old lady turned and walked into the kitchen.
During that summer vacation, the child spent his time playing with tigers.
When it's time to say goodbye, the children are particularly reluctant to part with each other.
Holding the tiger in his arms and refusing to let go.
……
Even after so many years, he has transformed from a child into a grey-haired old man, and the old man still has fresh memories of himself at that time.
"All I have to do is cry a lot of snot and tears."
I joked to myself.
"Actually..."
You were a little scared at that time, right?
The old man today is more aware of his feelings at that time.
Even if he didn't know it at first, he gradually came to know how special the tiger was.
No one can see the tiger except him.
At least there was no one else nearby who could see the tiger.
……
Grandpa also reminded him repeatedly not to tell others about the tiger.
Not everyone can understand what happened about tigers. Telling others hastily will only arouse suspicion and alienation from others, and even gossip and hurt.
Just like what happened to Xiaobai back then. None of the children, including the old man, believed Xiao Bai's words.
They were angry at Xiaobai for lying.
Because of Xiaobai's "stubbornness", they also said unpleasant words to Xiaobai and alienated Xiaobai.
For a child, a friend's incomprehension and alienation are a huge blow.
The old man didn't want his grandson to go through this.
For Xiaobai, he was very sorry for the hurt and broken promises.
It's just that he can't undo or change what has happened.
After Xiaobai was taken home by his parents, they had no more contact or contact.
The old man woke up late about Xiaobai.
But he won't make the same mistake a second time.
He will not let his grandson make the same mistake as Xiaobai.
The tiger can just be my grandson’s friend.
To those who cannot see, no matter how much you say, it is of no use.
Might as well keep it a secret from the beginning.
On the contrary, nothing happened.
As the old man expected, the child had a happy summer vacation.
……
Children know what they are afraid of.
Tigers are so special.
But it was just so special that he was afraid.
He was afraid that one day, maybe the next time he came to his grandpa's house, he wouldn't be able to see the tiger.
Just like everyone else.
It may be a bit unfounded and inexplicable, but the children at that time were deeply worried about it.
……
The old man and the old lady stood not far away, waiting for the child to say goodbye to the tiger.
The expressions of the two old men were a little strange.
Because in their eyes, the child is like a one-man show.
The sincere expression on his face makes the picture even more absurd and weird.
The old lady looked away, "It's right to keep it secret."
"Yeah."
The old lady's sudden words did not confuse the old man.
The old man nodded quickly and responded.
If others see the child like this, I'm afraid some unpleasant words will be spread out.
People's words are scary.
No matter how much a child likes tigers, he will be crushed by those comments.
After all, he is still a child.
……
"Leilei."
The old man called the child.
If the delay continues, the child's parents will arrive.
Under the old man's repeated urging, the child finally came over slowly.
"What's wrong?"
I could see the uneasiness in the child's eyebrows. The old lady asked worriedly.
The old man had some guesses, "Can't bear to bear the tiger?"
Huzi is the name given to tiger by children.
After all, the roar of a tiger all the time is a bit too ostentatious.
The child nodded his head.
The old lady suddenly smiled, "This child..."
"It's not like I won't come again."
Seeing that the child still looked gloomy, the old lady stretched out her finger and poked the child's forehead, "Leilei, won't you come to my grandparents' house in the future?"
"No."
The child shook his head.
"That-"
Feeling the clothes on her side being pulled, the old lady swallowed what she said and turned her head to look.
The old man shook his head slightly at the old lady.
Then he looked at the child, "Leilei, what are you worried about?"
The child pursed his lips.
No words were spoken.
But it is a default look.
