Little Tai Sui's Tale of Controlling Her Husband
Chapter 6 The Weird Boy
Xianjiang County recently had a strange boy.
The appearance of the young man did not attract much attention, because Xianjiang County is very close to the Xianjiang River, and the commerce is very developed, and there are many foreigners coming and going.
It was an old beggar in the dilapidated Chenghuang Temple in the west of the city who first noticed the boy's strange behavior.
According to the old beggar's description, one morning three years ago, the teenager suddenly appeared near the Town God's Temple and lingered there for several days.The old beggar didn't care at first, probably because of the flood in the upper reaches of Xianjiang County not long ago, many people's homes were destroyed, and most of the survivors became refugees and fled in all directions.
The old beggar saw that the boy was dressed in ordinary clothes and his face was dirty, so he ignored him as a refugee.After all, the ruined temple in the west of the city was originally a place where beggars gathered. Recently, refugees often came along the Xianjiang River.
However, something strange happened shortly after.At first, the young man just stayed near the Town God's Temple during the day, but later he found that no one was paying attention to him, so he simply stayed in the Town God's Temple day and night.He sat in a daze at the entrance of the ruined temple during the day, and slept on the ground like other beggars at night.
The old beggar saw that although the young man was dressed in ordinary clothes, he was still handsome, so he took it for granted that he used to be a son of a rich family.Thinking of the young man who was exiled here because of a great change in his family, he couldn't help feeling sympathetic.
However, shortly after contact, the old beggar found that the child had some brain problems.It's an exaggeration to say that I am stupid, but there is always stupidity.
Not only that, the young man was very dull, if he hadn't said a few words occasionally, the old beggar would have thought he was dumb.
Thinking of the handsome but silly boy, the old beggar felt pity for him, but also feared that he would be abducted and sold by human traffickers, so he made up his mind to take him in.
Fortunately, the young man ate very little, and the old beggar brought him some food from time to time, so he would not die of hunger.
It's not that the old beggar never asked the young man why he stayed here all the time, and no matter the wind or rain, he squatted in a daze at the entrance of the ruined temple every day.The young man was silent at first and did not answer, but after the two got to know each other well, he finally gave his answer.
"Wait someone."
"Wait for someone? Who are you waiting for?"
Yes, the teenager is waiting for someone.As for who to wait for, the old beggar couldn't get an answer every time he asked.
After a long time, the old beggar didn't bother to ask any more, and the old and the young just lived "depending on each other".The old beggar went out to beg every day, and the young man sat in front of the ruined temple every day, and his life was like this day by day.
For a young man to wait for three years...
This winter is colder than usual.
The cold wind poured in through the gaps in the dilapidated windows of the dilapidated temple, blowing out the already dying flames.The dilapidated City God Temple is freezing outside, and the inside is also dripping into ice.
The cold wind slapped on the boy's body through the gap, but the thinly clad boy couldn't feel the slightest cold.The young man squatted on the ground, staring blankly at the old beggar who had already lost his temperature, motionless.
Yes, the old beggar is dead.
This winter is very cold.
There was no expression on the boy's face, neither sadness nor tears, as if the person who died was a stranger.
time to go……
The boy remained motionless.
The words of the old beggar before he died vaguely lingered in the young man's ears...
"Idiot...cough, idiot, your parents' names are good!"
"Fool, you have been waiting here day and night for three years, and you refuse to leave the City God Temple. Are you waiting for your parents? Hehe, I know you won't answer, it's okay..." When it came to this, The dying old beggar left muddy tears.
He knew that he couldn't make it through anymore. He had long since neglected life and death in his homeless life. Death might be a kind of relief for him.
But now, he has something to worry about, and he can't worry about this stupid and stubborn child.
He is dead, what should this child do!
"Cough, idiot, do you still remember Zhang Yuanwai? He was the kind-hearted old man who passed by our Town God's Temple that day. He thought you were pitiful and wanted to take you in as a janitor... Cough, at that time, because you didn't If you are willing to leave here, I also hate you, so I rejected him."
"Now it seems that this is your only way out. Promise me that after I die, you will go to Zhang Yuanwai, okay?"
Under the begging gaze of the old beggar, the young man remained silent.
Just when the old beggar was about to die, the boy finally nodded.
The old beggar closed his eyes contentedly.
juvenile……
In other words, our little Tai Sui stared blankly at the skinny and cold corpse, feeling a suspected 'heartache' in his heart for the first time.
Tai Sui was born with nature, he does not understand the pain of the loss of his loved ones, this feeling is too strange for him to understand.It's like he doesn't understand why he 'misses' that person, and he can even suppress his instinct for this, and he has been waiting in this ruined temple for many years.
According to Chi'er's original intention, he will still continue to wait here, because this ruined temple is the only place where he and that person meet.As for how long to wait, whether that person will appear here, Chi'er doesn't know and doesn't care.
He didn't even know what that person's name was, and he even forgot what that person looked like.
But this does not prevent Chi'er from waiting here, whether it is ten years, a hundred years, or even until the end of time, because Chi'er does not know what the passage of time means.
But now, Chi'er hesitated.
Although he didn't know the emotion of 'hesitation', he was definitely confused.
He stared at the gradually cold body of the old beggar, and he had a vague idea of what this meant, because the beggars had just 'fallen' like this before and couldn't wake up again.Thinking of what the old beggar said before he died, after a short "ideological struggle", Chi'er decided to fulfill the old beggar's last wish and go to Zhang Yuanwai.
Zhang Yuanwai is sixty-five this year and is a well-known gentry in Xianjiang County.
Logically speaking, although the gentry and the common people would not regard each other as enemies, the conflict between them is still irreconcilable.But this Zhang Yuanwai is an exception. Not only is he loved by the local people, but even the local county magistrate Yu treats him well.
As for the reason, it starts from 30 years ago.
Thirty years ago, Zhang Yuanwai, who was in his thirties, was highly regarded by Wu Deyou, the magistrate of Xianjiang County at that time, and was hired to advise and accompany his master all year round.And this county magistrate, Wu Deyou, was just transferred to Xianjiang County not long ago, when a tragic case occurred in the county.At that time, County Magistrate Wu almost lost his black hat because of this case. Fortunately, he followed the advice of Master Zhang, now Yuanwai Zhang, and not only successfully solved the tragedy, but also received a commendation from his superiors.
Afterwards, the county magistrate of Wu made great efforts to manage Xianjiang County in an orderly manner. What's more, in order to repair the soaring canal water of the Xianjiang River every spring and summer, he led the villagers to build dikes and dams.The successive years of floods in Xianjiang County have not only solved the problem, but also made the business of Xianjiang County develop rapidly.Although this is nothing to the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, it is a great achievement to Xianjiang County.
In the past few years, the magistrate of Wu County was promoted again and again, and was finally promoted to Fu Ya as the magistrate.Zhang Yuanwai, as a master, followed the rising tide.It's a pity that Wu Deyou was killed by a serious illness within two years of becoming the magistrate.Master Zhang also declined the invitation of the next magistrate because of his deep relationship with Wu Deyou, and returned to his hometown of Xianjiang County.
So far, there has been Zhang Yuanwai who is deeply loved by the people.
At noon today, Zhang Yuanwai had just returned from a trip when he received a report from a young man, saying that a boy had suddenly come to his door and insisted on seeing him.When Zhang Yuanwai was wondering where the boy came from, he heard the servant say that the name of the boy was 'Chi'er'.After he was stunned for a moment, he immediately revealed a look of surprise.
It turned out to be an idiot!
The child I saw by chance in the dilapidated City God's Temple in the west of the city a year ago.
The reason why he remembered it so clearly was because the boy behaved a little weirdly, and the most important thing was that Zhang Yuanwai realized that the boy was very similar to a child he had seen a long time ago.
When he learned from the old beggar that the young man was also a little stupid, and would stand in a daze at the gate of the ruined temple every day, just to wait for someone who would never show up, he couldn't help but feel emotional.
Afterwards, he came up with the idea of taking the child away. After all, following a beggar would sooner or later make the child useless.
It's a pity that the boy named 'Chi'er' didn't pay attention to him at all except for the surprised and confused expression when he saw him at first, and he was determined not to leave the ruined temple.Thinking that this young man was very similar to the former child, Zhang Yuanwai still told Chi'er that if he figured it out, he would go to Zhangjiazhuang in the south of the city to find him.
Unexpectedly, a year later, the child was still there, and he really came to him.
Zhang Yuanwai took off his dusty coat, and while feeling the warm charcoal fire in the house, he said, "Bring him in."
When Zhang Yuanwai saw Chi'er walking in shivering in thin and old clothes, and his dull little face was flushed from the cold, he couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
This child has suffered a lot!
Sighing in his heart, Zhang Yuanwai showed a kind smile on his face, "Fool, it's been a year since we first met, how are you doing?"
Chi'er nodded, then remained silent.
Zhang Yuanwai saw that the idiot didn't speak, nor was he angry, he still asked kindly: "Is the old beggar okay?"
Chi'er shook her head silently, and finally spoke, "He's dead."
Zhang Yuanwai was taken aback, dead?
Zhang Yuanwai subconsciously inquired about Chi'er, although Chi'er's face did not show the slightest sadness, but Zhang Yuanwai couldn't help but feel even more distressed because of his self-sacrifice.
The silent idiot let Zhang Yuanwai look at him, and he was also looking at this 'familiar' Zhang Yuanwai.
At this moment, what Chi'er was thinking in his heart was: Why did Master Zhang become so old?
Master Zhang is getting old, what about that person?
Well, why didn't that person come to him?
He has been waiting for a long time, and he will be angry if he doesn't come again...
