I really don't want to be a teacher

Breeze blows across the yard and under the eaves from time to time,

Slightly shaking the shadows of the weeds on the ground by the yard, disturbing Gu Xiaoying's hair.

Under the eaves, there was the sound of Lian Ge turning the pages of the book from time to time.

Looking back at the sunny front yard, then at Lian Ge, lying on the table, a smile appeared on Gu Xiaoying's face,

"what happened?"

Looking up at Gu Xiaoying who was smiling slightly, Lian Ge smiled and asked.

"...It's nothing, it's just the feeling now...it's quite comfortable."

Gu Xiaoying smiled again, looked at Lian Ge again, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said aloud,

Lian Ge listened, looked at Gu Xiaoying, and smiled slightly.

Turning his gaze again, he gently flipped the pages of the book in his hand,

Gu Xiaoying lay beside her, looking at Lian Ge,

Under the eaves, be quiet again.

……

"... BOOM BOOM... BOOM BOOM BOOM..."

"...I'll go and open the door."

The sun went up to the top and climbed into the sky, and the sunlight reflected under the eaves gradually pushed to the edge of the front yard.

At this time, outside the courtyard door, there was a knock on the door,

Gu Xiaoying immediately stood up from the table, said to Lian Ge, and walked towards the courtyard gate.

Lian Ge nodded, then turned his gaze to the outside of the courtyard.

……

"... Is Master Lian at home? I'm looking for Master Lian... I'm Xu Shoude from Sanshan Village... Xu Yue's grandfather..."

Gu Xiaoying walked to the courtyard door and opened it.

Outside the courtyard gate, an old man appeared outside the gate,

Standing with a slightly hunched body, looking at Gu Xiaoying who opened the door, she spoke aloud.

At the table, Lian Ge also stood up, looked at the old man outside the courtyard,

The old man was wearing a cotton-padded jacket that was a bit worn out from washing, his face was full of wrinkles and wrinkles, his face was a bit tired, his eye sockets were still red, and there were bloodshot eyes.

Standing with a hunched body, she was still holding a red envelope with some creases and some color missing in her hand.

"Old man, come in."

Looking at the old man, Lian Ge said aloud.

Gu Xiaoying opened the door a little further and stepped aside.

……

"...Old man, sit down."

Gu Xiaoying moved a stool from the main room and put it next to the old man.

"thanks, thanks……"

The old man stopped in front of the eaves, stood, bent his body, thanked him, and sat down.

Glancing at the old man, Lian Ge turned around, took a paper cup from the water dispenser next to him, poured some tea, poured a cup of tea, walked back to the table, put the tea in front of the old man,

"Old man, drink some tea."

After saying something, Lian Ge sat down at the table,

"……thanks, thanks……"

The old man thanked him, stretched out his hand to hold the tea, held it in his hand, paused again, and fell silent for a while, then put down the paper cup containing the tea, and handed the red envelope that he had been clutching tightly to Lian Ge ,

"...Master Lian, I'm Xu Yue's grandfather...I'm sorry for Xu Yue's affairs...Thank you, thank you, Master Lian, for allowing me to talk to my grandson again, and for letting me see him again...Thank you ..."

While talking, the old man kept saying thank you over and over again,

"...This is Xiaoyue, he said that red envelope..."

Lian Ge glanced at the old man again, reached out to take the red envelope,

Opening the red envelope and taking out 24 yuan from the 12 yuan inside, Lian Ge handed the red envelope back to the old man.

"This is the price I negotiated with your grandson."

"……thanks, thanks……"

Chapter 745 Twelve months a year, good things come in pairs

In front of the hall, beside the eaves,

The old man hunched over, sat, thanked him, stretched out his hand, took back the creased red envelope, and held it tightly in his hand.

"……thanks."

The old man looked at the red envelope paper in his hand, his eyes were a little dazed, he pinched the red envelope paper in his hand, then slowly raised his head, and thanked Lian Ge again,

Lian Ge looked at the old man, shook his head slightly, but didn't say anything.

"...Master Lian, Xiao Yue..."

The old man's eyes were in a daze, then he turned his head, looked at Lian Ge, opened his mouth, and wanted to ask something, but gradually stopped speaking, and bent his body even more.

"...Xiao Yue came back last night, and I cooked pork ribs and stewed vegetables for him."

"...He told me that I didn't know how to use the washing machine. When I turned on the TV, I would look for the doll next door. When I went to the town to withdraw money, I would look for the girl surnamed Yang... and remember to wear clothes so that I remember to pay the electricity bill, let me remember... He arranged it for me..."

The old man raised his head again and whispered, a smile appeared on his wrinkled face. When he smiled, his eyes were red and there were some muddy tears in his eyes.

"... In the morning, he left... He told me that he is fine now, neither cold nor hungry, and he doesn't feel uncomfortable anymore. He said that there will be many little dolls to play with him, so I don't have to I'm worried about him... When I leave, I want to make breakfast for him, but he hasn't had breakfast yet..."

As the old man spoke, the cloudy tears in his eyes dripped down his wrinkled face and onto the ground.

Looking at the old man's appearance and listening to the old man's voice, Lian Ge didn't say anything.

Beside, Gu Xiaoying looked at the old man and listened, also a little silent.

Gusts of breeze blew across the yard, slightly shaking the shadows of several people's clothes on the ground.

……

"...Master Lian, Xiaoyue... he left, where did he go?"

The old man raised his head again, looked at Lian Ge, opened his mouth, and asked again, with hope, pleading, and fear in his eyes,

"At this moment, they should have gone to the underworld."

Looking at the old man, Lian Ge paused for a moment before answering.

Hearing the sound, the old man looked at Lian Ge, opened his mouth again, and seemed to want to say something more, but he couldn't make any sound.

It's just that the body became more and more stooped, and fell silent.

……

"...It's time to go down...Xiao Yue also said when he was leaving that he was leaving..."

Whispering, the old man lowered his head, spoke aloud, and fell silent again,

Slowly raising his head again, the old man looked in front of him, his eyes seemed a little dazed.

"... When Xiao Yue was younger... His parents had to earn money outside, so he and I were in the house... Later, his parents had an accident outside, and I was the only one left In the house with him..."

"...When he was a child, he was sensible, he didn't cry or make troubles much, I was busy with other things, he stood aside, and I was picking vegetables on the edge of the eaves, and he squatted in front of me...etc. When I get older, it seems that he is talking about me... Tell me, remember to put on your clothes, tell me how to press this washing machine, and tell me to be careful when receiving water... Don't fall."

Whispering, the old man didn't know whether he was talking to Lian Ge or himself,

"...I've been watching him since I was one or two years old. As I grow up, I'm getting older... more and more useless..."

As the old man spoke, his eyes were red, he bent his body, raised his head, his eyes were in a daze,

"...He likes to eat pork ribs, likes to eat nectarines... The dolls in other people's houses go to the street, and when they see what they want to eat, they ask for it. He, he followed me to the street, When I saw it, I dragged me away... Every time, I said, just buy less, and it won't cost much... Buy one or two nectarines, take them home, he will wash them, cut them After opening half of it and handing it to me, I took the rest and ate happily..."

As he spoke, the eyes of the old man became more and more red, he paused again, and continued talking,

"...When he was seven years old, his father left for a year or two...Xiao Yue fell ill...went to the hospital in the town, then to the hospital in the county, and then to the city..."

"...Have been in the city hospital for half a year...he told me, grandpa, I want to go home...we came back..."

As he spoke, tears welled up in the old man's red eyes.

"...The doctor said that he is in pain and uncomfortable...he looks at me, but he doesn't feel pain...keep telling me, he's fine..."

"...After a few days back in the house, he kept telling me every day, Grandpa, I'm much better now, I don't feel very uncomfortable...He even followed me to the town and told me how to get it. Qian...I want him to rest at home, he must go with me and say something..."

Tears kept dripping on the ground, the voice of the old man rang under the eaves,

"...He left within a few days after returning from town..."

The old man was talking, his open mouth trembling slightly, as if he wanted to continue, but he couldn't make a sound.

Holding the red envelope paper in his hand, he fell silent again.

……

"... On the night of the Chinese New Year, I stewed pork ribs for him. He had no appetite. After eating, he held back and vomited it out again..."

"...I wrapped him a red envelope for 24 yuan, and he asked me what 24 yuan means?"

The old man hunched over, trembling all over, picked up the red envelope in his hand tremblingly, looked at it, tears poured out of his eyes, and said,

"...Let me tell you, 24 yuan is two yuan a month for twelve months a year, which is twelve months a year. There is money to spend every month, and good things come in pairs every month..."

Hands trembling slightly, tightly clutching the red envelope paper, the old man looked at and said,

"... He smiled, took the red envelope, and carefully hid it under the pillow... He also said, later, he will also wrap a red envelope for me...a big one..."

"... That day, he finally got some appetite. I asked the villagers to help me and brought some ribs back from the town... I told him that we will eat pork ribs at night...he said yes...wait for me When the meal is ready, call him...he already...he asked me, grandpa, are the ribs ready..."

"...I said it's done, it's done...I'll serve it to him..."

The old man trembled more and more, tears fell patter,

"...When I hurried back to the bed with the ribs...he took a bite, and then told me, let me eat...I said yes, I said yes...he just looked at me like that, watching look at me..."

The old man trembled all over and could not speak any more.

A chilly breeze blew across the courtyard, slightly shaking the half-hidden courtyard door.

……

"...Master Lian, thank you...thank you..."

The old man turned his head again, looked at Lian Ge, and said again,

"...Thank you, Master Lian, for letting me see my grandson again, and for letting me talk to my grandson again...Thank you..."

Looking at Lian Ge, the old man thanked him over and over again, and opened his mouth again, as if he wanted to say something, but fell silent again.

Under the eaves, the old man hunched over and sat,

The hot air rising from the cup of tea on the table gradually dissipated under the breeze.

Looking at the old man, Lian Ge turned his gaze to the distance again, but did not speak.

Beside, Gu Xiaoying looked at the old man, also a little silent.

Under the eaves, the tea on the table was getting colder and quieter.

Chapter 746 Baby

"...Thank you, thank you... Master Lian, I will... go back first."

Outside the hall, under the eaves, gusts of chilly wind blew past from time to time, shaking the gradually dissipated heat on the tea.
