Urban Youth Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 211 Unexpected Gains

"Auntie, I'm..." Ma Xiaoming didn't know how to introduce himself for a moment, he hesitated.

"I don't need kitchen knives at home anymore." The old lady couldn't help saying when she saw that Ma Xiaoming was so young, and his complexion was so dark, and he spoke with a foreign accent.

"Auntie, I'm not here to sell kitchen knives." Ma Xiaoming said immediately.

"I don't want dish soap anymore!"

"Auntie, I'm not here to sell dish soap."

Ma Xiaoming said: "Auntie, I'm not here to sell things. I'm a friend of your son Xiao Min. Xiao Min had an accident. I saw it on the news, so I came here to take a look."

Hearing this, the old lady's face suddenly turned ugly, and she said, "What nonsense are you talking about, what happened to my son? My son is now working hard in City X..."

"Auntie, something really happened to Xiao Min... You haven't talked to him on the phone for almost a year!"

"So what? My son is busy at work! It's normal not to call me. You go, I don't want to see you!"

"Oops, listen to me, oops!"

Before Ma Xiaoming finished speaking, he was turned away by the old lady, who closed the door angrily.

Because the door was closing too loudly, the neighbors couldn't help but open the door and take a look.

Ma Xiaoming looked at Xiao Min with a wry smile and said, "Now your mother has kicked me out, look! She won't believe what I say."

Xiao Min stared blankly at the door of his own house, but he didn't dare to go in, and he didn't dare to face his mother.

Ma Xiaoming could only stand outside the door with Xiao Min.

Another grandmother of the neighbor next door opened the door, and she said, "Young man, come in and sit down!"

Ma Xiaoming took a look at this granny, she was about the same age as Xiao Min's mother, he smiled and said, "Thank you, granny!"

After entering, the grandmother did not close the door, but closed the mosquito-proof screen door. She said, "Young man, your accent is not local!"

As she spoke, she took a disposable cup for Ma Xiaoming, filled it with water and placed it in front of Ma Xiaoming, then sat down and looked at Ma Xiaoming.

"En. I'm from Beipu County, Guangxi Province." Ma Xiaoming said, "I just got into college this year and came here, so I'm staying at a relative's house. It's in this community."

"In that building?" Grandma asked.

"The 13th floor of Unit [-]..." Ma Xiaoming said with a smile. He was indeed thirsty, so he couldn't help but took a sip of water from his cup.

Grandma heard what Ma Xiaoming said, and said quickly: "The 13th floor of Unit [-]? Oh, where do you live? Hurry up and move! That place is unbearable!"

"I went to see it. The house is pretty good, the lighting is good, and the ventilation is good. How can such a house be uninhabitable?" Ma Xiaoming asked puzzled.

"Anyway, don't ask so many questions, move away quickly! No, it's dark now, and you don't want to go back, young man, at your age... Hey, I think of my eldest grandson, you Just stay here for one night today! Don't go back." Grandma looked at Ma Xiaoming for a while, and then said, "Don't go back, just stay at my house for one night, and go back at dawn."

Ma Xiaoming saw Grandma like this, and knew that the old lady must know something, so he couldn't help but said: "Grandma, is that house really that scary?"

Grandma said: "I have lived a long time, what did I lie to you for? Listen to me, don't live anywhere."

"But my things and my friends are still living in it!"

"Even if your friend is still living in the house, don't go back. Be obedient. You can go back to that place after dawn. Don't go back now."

Ma Xiaoming was flustered by what Grandma said. He thought he was quite courageous, but at the moment he was really scared, and felt like he didn't dare to go back.

But he searched for a long time today, but he couldn't find the hiding place of that thing.He felt that the other party was really as simple as an ordinary ghost.

But thinking that Lin Lin's identity is not as simple as an ordinary person, Ma Xiaoming felt a little relieved.

"Grandma, are you the only one in your house?" Ma Xiaoming couldn't help asking when he saw that Grandma's house was clean and spotless, but he always felt a little less angry.

"My wife passed away last year, so I'm the only one left... Well? Actually, if you want, you can live here. I won't charge you expensive rent. Just 500 yuan a month! What do you think? "Grandma suddenly thought of something, couldn't help looking at Ma Xiaoming and asked.

For some reason, Ma Xiaoming always felt that this grandma was really too enthusiastic towards him.Is it because she is often widowed at home and wants to have someone to accompany her?However, at 500 yuan a month, such a house is really not expensive.It's just... Ma Xiaoming couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart. After paying the tuition fee, he still has a little over 2000 in his pocket. With such a little money, he really doesn't know what else he can do?
Perhaps seeing the embarrassed expression on Ma Xiaoming's face, Grandma couldn't help but said, "You don't have much money, do you?"

Grandma may be a very considerate old man. She said: "The old man is old and has trouble moving. I just want to talk to someone. If you don't dislike me, I want you to live here and talk to me." , accompany me to the park for a walk, in this way, I can waive your rent, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Ma Xiaoming couldn't help but looked up at Grandma and said, "Grandma, I came with my friend, I...thank you, Grandma...but this is not suitable."

"Grandma, if you like to chat, I will often chat with you in the future."

"Then you can chat with me today..."

"it is good."

I don't know how long Ma Xiaoming chatted with the old man. From the old man's mouth, Ma Xiaoming knew the old man's life experience and family situation.

The old man has two sons and a daughter, who have already married and established businesses.The eldest son and the eldest daughter-in-law divorced, and the eldest grandson was fostered in the old man's home. Unfortunately, when the eldest grandson was there, he went out to play and was accidentally drowned.

Afterwards, the old man's wife also passed away because of missing the eldest grandson and mourning excessively.The old man was left alone.

At the beginning, the old man wanted to keep a dog to accompany him, but he thought that his dead wife didn't like cats and dogs, so he didn't.

It’s okay during the day, I can walk around the community and chat with others, but at night, without anyone to accompany me, I can only pass the time in front of the TV, and I feel really lonely.

Grandma chatted, took out the photo album, and showed Ma Xiaoming one by one, introducing her family members, she pointed to a photo of a half-grown child playing football and said: "Look, this is my eldest grandson. My eldest grandson likes playing football the most. He played football very well at that time..."

"My eldest grandson is so majestic, look... this is his photo..."

……

Ma Xiaoming took one of the photos and stared blankly at the person in the photo.Because the person in the photo actually looks very similar to his previous life, that is, Nan Kemeng's appearance.

"Grandma, who is this?" Ma Xiaoming asked.

"This is my grandson, hehe, he is the same age as you this year, but this kid's grades are not good in school, so he probably won't be able to get into a good university this year, otherwise his mother must have called me to announce the good news." Granny After taking the photo that Ma Xiaoming handed over, he put on his glasses, looked at the photo, and said with a happy expression on his face.

"Your grandson?" Ma Xiaoming said, "Is this year about my age?"

"Well, almost." Grandma nodded and said.

"He looks very similar to someone I know, and his appearance is seven or eight percent similar!" Ma Xiaoming said intentionally, "My friend should be 21 years old this year."

"Your friend?" Grandma said, "Is it a boy?"

"That's right, he is an abandoned baby who was raised by his adoptive parents from the trash can." Ma Xiaoming said intentionally.He hated his biological parents very much in his previous life, if they hadn't abandoned him, he wouldn't have suffered so much.

When Grandma heard this, she quickly grabbed Ma Xiaoming's hand and asked excitedly, "Is there a birthmark on your friend's left shoulder? A red birthmark? Isn't it?"

Ma Xiaoming nodded.When he was Nan Kemeng, there was a red birthmark on his left shoulder, and it was very clear.Neither big nor small, only as thick as a finger.

"Where is that friend of yours now?" Grandma asked Ma Xiaoming with tears streaming down her face when she heard this.

Seeing Grandma crying, he immediately asked, "Grandma, why are you crying?"

Grandma shook her head, she said, "Tell me, where is your friend now?"

Ma Xiaoming said: "He... I haven't contacted him for a long time. Grandma, what's going on, are you so excited?"

"My daughter once had a son." Grandma said, "Hey, if he is still alive this year, he should be 21 years old. When he was six months old, the child's grandfather pushed the child to the park to play, because he was obsessed with Playing chess, the child was stolen..."

Grandma was crying as she spoke. She wiped her tears and said, "You don't know, because of this my daughter and us... hey... my old man has been guilty of this for many years, and he almost committed suicide."

"This child is a heart disease of our family."

Ma Xiaoming frowned. He remembered that when he was Nan Kemeng, his parents said that he was picked up from the garbage dump. When they saw him, he was sick all over his body. He was so sick that he was dying. Lonely, if it wasn't for his parents who woke up and took care of him, he probably wouldn't be able to survive.

At that time, Ma Xiaoming still hated his biological parents, thinking that they abandoned him because they saw that he was sick and unable to support him, but now it seems that they are not.

No, maybe this old man may not be his grandmother. You must know that the imperial capital is too far away from a small place like Beipu County. Even if this old man's grandson is stolen, it is impossible to leave it in such a small place.

"Grandma, don't cry. Don't cry, maybe your grandson, Jiren, has a natural appearance and lives well!"
