Ferocious Dog of Old - Chapter 57
[Chapter 57]
When talking in the group at night, Tao Huainan didn’t think that these classmates would really come, so when they got to the entrance of the village and called them and asked them to come out to pick them up, Tao Huainan was really shocked.
A total of five idle brothers, led by Ji Nan Shi Kai, were sent by Ji Nan’s driver in a seven-seat business car.
Tao Huainan was eating with Chi Cheng in the kitchen hut at the time. Uncle Huang and Aunt Huang set up a small stove, and they were not allowed to eat the chef’s cooking. It was all for the tenants, and Aunt Huang cooked for them.
Uncle Huang used the stove to cook pigeons and steamed buns, and Tao Huainan was squatting beside the stove and eating. The outermost layer was burnt to black, Tao Huainan’s hands were all black, and his mouth was full of bells and whistles.
Chi Cheng took a small bench from outside and came in. Seeing Tao Huainan eating so dirty, he laughed at him: “Like a mud monkey.”
Tao Huainan didn’t care, he touched the thickest piece of meat on his chest and tore it off. A long strip, raised his hand and handed it to Chi Cheng’s mouth: “Wow, it’s delicious.”
Chi Cheng leaned over and took it away, put the small stool next to Tao Huainan and let him sit and eat.
Aunt Huang also stewed a piece of river fish. Yesterday, someone in the village went to dig an ice hole to fish for fish. Uncle Huang also brought some back and picked the biggest one to stew for them both. At this time, it is difficult to get live fish, especially such a big one, which has been nesting under the ice for a winter, fresh and fat. Tao Huainan smelled the smell of fish coming out of the cauldron on the stove, while tearing up pigeons to eat.
Uncle Huang and Aunt Huang like him very much. The two old people are only brother Huang and a son. Brother Huang’s girl is still young. During the holidays, he can go to various make-up classes, dance classes, art classes, and he can’t come back twice a year. It is rare to have two children at home. Although they are a little older, they are still children in the eyes of the elderly.
The child chatted with Aunt Huang while eating. When the call came, their hands were too dirty to answer. Before they could pick up, they called Chicheng again.
Tao Huainan couldn’t go out to pick up people after eating like this, so Chi Cheng went by himself. When the people came, Tao Huainan had already washed clean, his hands and face were white, and the water had not had time to wipe.
“You guys are too quick, aren’t you?” Tao Huainan said, shaking the water in his hands.
“Wipe it dry, it’ll blow dry later.” Aunt Huang quickly handed over the paper to Tao Huainan to wipe, “You guys are tender, don’t take water out of the house.”
Uncle Huang went to arrange rooms for the children and passed by the kitchen. Come over and say hello to Tao Huainan.
The sharp-eyed saw the food beside the stove and asked Tao Huainan, “What did Xiao Huainan steal?”
Chi Cheng came over and wiped off the water droplets on Tao Huainan’s chin. Tao Huainan said, “That’s too much.”
Before a group of boys could go to the room, they scrambled to eat two pigeons.
“They all gave me food!” Tao Huainan turned around and complained in Chi Cheng’s direction.
Uncle Huang laughed and said, “I’ll burn it for you later.”
Tao Huainan said to Chi Cheng deliberately aggrieved, “I left it for you. The meat on the legs and breasts are reserved for you. They have all been taken away, look at them.”
Chi Cheng said, ”
It’s alright.” Fine.”
Tao Huainan ignored them, lying beside Chi Cheng’s ear and said, “I also hid a small quail for you in it.”
Aunt Huang helped him hide it just now, and wrapped it in tinfoil. There was a smile in Chi Cheng’s eyes, and Tao Huainan made him pinch his face.
Tao Huainan was either really rude, or he was making trouble with his classmates and became playful. The little quail that was hidden at the end was also robbed, and Tao Huainan was furious.
A group of high school boys are like gangsters and bandits. They rob whatever they see. The big fish stewed by Aunt Huang on the small stove is definitely not enough for them to eat. A nearly ten kilograms of river fish can be eaten by them. Nothing left.
A big fish has no small spines, so Tao Huainan can eat it with fish soup dipped in cakes. The other dishes didn’t stand up to grabs either. Uncle Huang and Aunt Huang were shocked by this battle. How could it be that he couldn’t get enough to eat.
When this news reached the store, Brother Huang and Tao Xiaodong both laughed.
“Xiao Nan’s popularity is not bad now, there are a bunch of little brothers here.” Brother Huang said.
Tao Xiaodong drew pictures for others, and said while walking the needle: “Anyway, Xiaochi is not fighting now.”
“They should have been sent there a long time ago, the old man and the old lady are rare and broken, come here such a group of children, watching It’s all lively.” A young tattoo artist walked past them and hit Brother Huang’s head, and Brother Huang kicked him and said, “The old man explained that the whole sheep will be roasted for them in half. Half of them.”
“Thinking about it makes a lot of noise,” Tao Xiaodong said with a smile, “This is really something for my uncle, and the two of them are enough. It’s a small gang, and it can make a big difference.
” Let’s go, usually no one makes trouble if you want to make trouble, so it’s boring.”
They are like brothers, so there’s no need to say unethical words, if you talk too much, you’ll be far away. Originally, letting them go out was to make them happy, so the happier the better.
Tao Huainan was originally very happy to be taken out by Chi Cheng every day for a walk, but suddenly a group of troublesome people followed. Many words should not be said nonsense, and many things should not be done indiscriminately.
Tao Huainan was getting ready to take a bath in the evening. After taking a bath every day, he dipped into the hot quilt, not to mention the comfort. Chi Cheng asked him to wash first, while Tao Huainan waited.
When Chi Cheng was finally ready to wash, Tao Huainan walked to the bathroom with his pajamas and pajamas in his hand.
“Hurry up, hurry up…”
Tao Huainan was taken aback when the door was suddenly pushed open. The person at the door stuck his head out and said, “Brother Chi? Is the charger for me?”
Ji Nan lived next to them. There are two of them in the house, and three in the other. At this moment, Ji Nan came over to get the charger, but he didn’t wear anything, just a pair of shorts.
“I’m freezing to death soon!”
Chi Cheng went to get it for him, Tao Huainan stood at the toilet door and turned around and said, “Don’t remember to bring a charger when you go out?”
“Get off the car,” Shi Kai also came over and slipped around, wrapping his arms around Jinan’s neck. Jinan continued, “Your house seems to be hotter than ours.”
Chi Cheng came over and handed him the charger. He must have taken off his coat in the room, and now Chi Cheng is only wearing a T-shirt and is going to take a shower.
Ji Nan took it from him, looked up, and blurted out, “I can’t count on you…”
Shi Kai clenched his neck and said, “It’s dead cold, hurry up, you are bare ass. It’s very cold?”
“Aren’t you wearing pants?” Ji Nan was taken away by Shi Kai, took a charger, and tossed the cable.
“Why didn’t you lock the door?” Tao Huainan asked.
“You can’t lock it if you don’t sleep,” Chi Cheng locked the door and came over. “It’s locked.” Tao
Huainan touched the bathroom light and went in and said, “Take a shower, come quickly.”
Take a shower, but it’s different now, it’s more fun to squeeze and wash now.
A group of bastards have nothing to do here except eat, drink, and have fun.
They play more wildly than Tao Huai, they are too picky, they go crazy wherever they go. When Tao Huainan was dragged by Chi Cheng and slowly skating, he was afraid of being hit by them, so he quickly avoided when he heard someone nearby.
Chi Cheng went to buy him soy milk, but Tao Huainan didn’t dare to stay where he was. So he dragged Chi Cheng’s clothes and slid together to buy soy milk.
The old man who sold soymilk brought a child with him, he looked thirteen or fourteen years old.
Tao Huainan didn’t even know there was someone here, it was too quiet for him to crouch there. It wasn’t until Tao Huainan was suddenly touched on his ankle that he gave a short cry of fright.
Chi Cheng immediately looked back at him and saw Tao Huainan took two steps back in panic.
“It’s okay, don’t be afraid,” Chi Cheng grabbed his arm, “it’s a child.”
Tao Huainan nodded and said, “I just didn’t hear it.” The
old man handed him the soy milk, glanced at the ground, and said calmly, “He can’t make a sound.”
“Ah…” Tao Huainan said a little apologetically, “Did I startle him too?”
Tao Huainan squatted down and made a gesture of apology. Blind and deaf people can only speak with one sign language and one without using a mobile phone.
“It’s alright, don’t be scared,” the old man said, filling them with a second cup of soy milk, pouring it into the paper cup from the thermos in the thick heat, “It’s okay if you’re scared.”
Tao Huainan blinked a little suspiciously, Standing up, Chi Cheng took his hand and squeezed his palm.
“You can’t see either?” The old man looked up at him, but he didn’t show much emotion. He smiled and swept his chin downward, “You are better than him, he can’t see or hear.”
Tao Huainan opened his mouth. He opened his mouth, but he didn’t make a sound for a long time.
Later, Tao Huainan squatted down again and touched the child lightly, touching the back of his dry and cracked hand. The child shrank his hand back, then stretched it out a moment later, as if curious, but also as if making trouble. He patted Tao Huainan’s hand with a lot of strength, and made a “snap” sound.
Tao Huainan was led away, and he turned back several times in the direction just now.
Tao Huainan, such a “blind and deaf person”, has only heard of it, but has never really encountered it. When he was taken by his brother to the hospital to have his eyes checked, a young couple once sat in the doctor’s office crying desperately, saying that their child was “blind and deaf”.
At that time, the young mother cried and asked, “How can I raise him… Can he live when he is raised? How can he live?” The
doctor advised them to be optimistic, and the future is worth looking forward to.
“Future” is an empty word, it is too ethereal.
At that time, Tao Huainan didn’t understand that the dry, cracked hand he touched that day and the sound that hit his hand made Tao Huainan really feel touched.
Later in the day he couldn’t help but face that way.
That kid…how did he grow up?
Chi Cheng came over and touched his head. Tao Huainan was wearing a ski cap on his head. He held Chi Cheng’s hand and felt so lucky for the first time.
If that child could also have useful ears and hear things, it would be much easier for him than he is now, much, much more.
Tao Huainan gently touched his ear with his other hand.
That day, Ji Nan and the others bought the old man’s pots of soy milk and let him take the child home.
The child’s walking posture is a little twisted, his shoulders are slanted, and he takes a few steps to shake his arms, and his movements are strange and inconsistent. They all looked at Tao Huainan, the same invisible little boy, one grew up happy and innocent, and the other lived as if he had no soul. It looks like Tao Huainan is very lucky, at least he still has ears.
But among this group of people, it is ridiculous to say that Tao Huainan is lucky.
A boy came over and pinched Tao Huainan’s ear and said, “You are all little angels.”
Tao Huainan smiled and said, “I think so too.”
