Embracing the ancient times with roses

Both Li Xiu and Da Zhuang heard the crying, glanced at each other, and hurried into the room. When they entered the room, they saw a small child lying beside an old man, pushing the old man vigorously. The old man yelled "Grandpa, Grandpa..."

Da Zhuang immediately hugged the old man onto the kang when he saw it. As if the old man's pulse was gone, he put it on the old man's chest and listened carefully. Finally, he shook his head and said, "I'm gone... "

When Li Xiu heard this, he felt uncomfortable. Although he had just met the old man, he thought how pitiful the child lost his family at such a young age. So with tears in his eyes, he picked up the child and carried the food box , said to Da Zhuang: "Brother Da Zhuang, this child is still so young, we can't let this child stay here, I took him home, you find some people to bury the old man."

Da Zhuang nodded and said: "Okay, you go back first, I will find someone now, and let the child stay at our house first."

Li Xiu nodded, and took away the child who was already crying like a tearful person. Li Xiu looked at the child along the way, and when he thought of himself when he was a child, his heart softened and felt uncomfortable. He coaxed the child while walking.

The child was very shy of Li Xiu, and kept calling for his grandpa. After hearing this, Li Xiu coaxed him and said, "Don't cry, Grandpa is asleep. Be good, we'll go home later, and I'll get it for you." food."

The child may be hungry, and when he heard that there was food, he stopped crying, but the tears still rolled around his eyes, but he was also looking at Li Xiu seriously, and couldn't help touching Li Xiu with his little black hand. Seeing that Li Xiu didn't say anything, he touched his face again, and finally whispered, "Are you me?"

When Li Xiu heard this, his face turned red. What kind of eyes does this child have? How could he be regarded as a mother if he is a pure man?However, in order to coax the child not to cry, he did not refute.

In the end, the child lay directly on Li Xiu's shoulders. Maybe he was too tired, so he slowly closed his eyes. Li Xiu tilted his head to look at the child, sighed, and hurried home , because he was afraid that the child would be frozen on the road, when he got home, Li Xiu put the sleeping child directly on the kang, covered the child with a quilt, turned around and got off the ground, went directly into the kitchen, and burned it There is a pot of water, and the child will be bathed in a while. He is afraid that the child will have lice.

This child can really sleep, and has not woken up until after three o'clock in the afternoon. Li Xiu has prepared all the food for the living things in the house, and Da Zhuang has also returned. Seeing Li Xiu feeding the chickens and ducks, he went over Helped, and added fodder to the donkey's trough, and then went back to the house with Lixiu satisfied, ready to eat.

As soon as Da Zhuang set the dinner table, he saw the child get out of the quilt. He was a little scared when he saw Da Zhuang, but fortunately he didn't cry. Seeing the child's pity, Da Zhuang said: "The meal will be ready soon, you wait for it." I'll bring you food."

Seeing Da Zhuang about to go out, the child couldn't help but said, "Father, don't go."

Da Zhuang couldn't take it anymore, how could this kid call the person he just met daddy? "Son, did you just call me Daddy?"

The child has a big head: "Grandpa said, take me to find daddy, ah, aren't you my daddy?"

Da Zhuang opened his mouth, and before he could answer, he was interrupted by Li Xiu who had just brought the food into the room. Li Xiu put the food on the table, waved to the child and said, "Come here, I'll take you to wash Wash your hands and eat later."

Seeing that he cared so much about this child, Da Zhuang couldn't help but said, "Brother Xiu, are you planning to raise this child?"

Li Xiu was taken aback by Da Zhuang's question, and finally nodded and said: "I have no parents since I was a child. I don't want this child to be like me. Let's keep him. He is so pitiful. We should leave him alone. It is estimated that he will have no way out."

Da Zhuang nodded and said, "That's fine, let's do it this way, he will be our son from now on, okay?"

Li Xiu nodded, picked up the child with a smile, went out, and came back after a while, with clean hands and face, Li Xiu was attracted to him immediately, this is a beautiful gentleman , although he is a little thinner now, but he is confident that he can raise him well.

Da Zhuang had prepared meals for the three of them, and saw Li Xiu came back with the child in his arms, and Li Xiu put the child on the side of the kang table. When the child saw the table full of food, he couldn't help but swallowed. I was really hungry, but because Li Xiu and Da Zhuang didn't move their chopsticks, the child resisted. Li Xiu looked at it and said: "The little guy is quite well-behaved, let's eat." After speaking, he told the child Served a bowl of chicken cake.

After the child took it, he whispered, "Thank you."

When Lixiu heard these two words, his eyes twitched. What kind of address is it? It is absolutely not acceptable to call him this way, so he said, "You are not allowed to call him Ah in the future, but you must call him Dad."

The child didn't understand, Da Zhuang was also looking at him, Li Xiu blushed and said, "We call people like me Papa, there is no one called Ah Mo, I'm not used to it."

Da Zhuang nodded and said, "Oh, son, you can call Ah Mo Dad from now on."

The child nodded in agreement, and then began to eat. At that speed, Li Xiu couldn't help worrying about the child, fearing that he would choke and burn. The child ate a bowl of egg cake and wanted to eat more , Lixiu stopped him and said, "Son, we can't eat any more. Be careful that your stomach is overstretched. Let's take a rest and drink some rice soup."

The child was very well-behaved, nodded and said, "Well, listen to Dad."

Li Xiu put the rice soup with added sugar in front of the child, and the child sipped it slowly. Li Xiu looked so happy, this child is really well-behaved, obedient, not as noisy as modern children, he couldn't help touching Touching the child's hair: "Son, what's your name?"

The child put down the bowl and said, "My name is Xiaobao, and it was started by my grandpa."

Li Xiu nodded and said, "Then what's your real name?"

The child didn't speak this time, but shook his head, as if he didn't know.

Li Xiu looked at Da Zhuang and said, "Brother Da Zhuang doesn't have a name yet, let's name him one."

Da Zhuang thought for a while: "What are you doing so hard? Just call Tong Xiaobao."

Li Xiu opened his mouth and swallowed a mouthful of food. The skill of naming is really amazing. His father's name is Dazhuang, and his son's name is Xiaobao. Call it Tong Yao, the name sounds grand."

Da Zhuang had no objection, so he lowered his head and continued eating. . . . . .

After eating, Lixiu handed over the job of cleaning the table to Da Zhuang, and he took Tong Xiaobao to the east room to prepare to bathe the child. The bath water was boiled first, and Lixiu mixed the water and gave it to the child. After taking off his clothes, Li Xiu's heart tightened as soon as he took off his clothes. The child was so pitiful. He had no flesh on his body, just like skin and bones. Li Xiu pitifully put the child into the bathtub, and then Wash the baby carefully.

When Da Zhuang came in, he saw that Lixiu had washed the child. He handed the child's clothes to Lixiu and said, "This is what I asked for the child in the village today. They are worn by other people's children. Don't wear them if they are too small." Okay, let's make do with it for the child, his clothes are no longer wearable, I'm afraid there are lice growing on them, so I threw them away."

Li Xiu nodded and said, "Isn't there anything valuable? For example, something that can represent the identity of this child?"

As soon as Da Zhuang heard about it: "Yes, but I don't know what it means, that's all?" After speaking, he handed Li Xiu a purse.

Lixiu dressed the child, carried him out of the east room, took the purse, and arrived in the west room. Lixiu put the child on the kang, dried the child's hair carefully, and then opened the purse. A piece of paper was written on a date of birth. Li Xiu figured it out. It was the child's identity certificate. Then he looked around the purse, and finally he put the paper directly into the purse. It might be useful in the future. Well, in case the child grows up, if someone comes to recognize him, it's good to use it as a certificate!

Li Xiu saw that it was already dark outside, so he closed the window curtains, Da Zhuang also washed up, and Li Xiu asked Da Zhuang to help look after the child for a while, he went to take a bath, and when he came back, he saw Grandpa The two stared at each other there.

Li Xiu asked, "What are you two doing?"

Da Zhuang raised his head and said: "Daughter-in-law, I want to sleep with you and let him lie down by himself, but this child won't go in without saying anything, and just waits for you here. Do you want to sleep with him?"

After hearing this, Li Xiu said: "Well, I will hug him from now on, he is so small, he needs to be accompanied by someone, besides, I am afraid that he will be afraid at night when he just came here, when he grows up, we will let him Let him sleep by himself!"

This child Tong Xiaobao is really smart, when he heard that Li Xiu wanted to hug him to sleep, he stood up and stretched out his pair of little paws, and directly climbed onto Li Xiu's neck, calling: "Ah, how kind of you are you?" What!"

Leaving Xiu. . . . . .

Da Zhuang didn't like it when he saw it, he dared to tease my wife, and grabbed the child, "You sleep with me today." After speaking, he directly pressed the child into his bed, and he also lay down.

Seeing him like that, Li Xiu couldn't help laughing, this guy must be jealous, but it seems that Tong Xiaobao is only two and a half years old, less than three years old, if it wasn't for his early wisdom, he might be a child who can't even speak clearly Bar?This is a bit jealous. . . . .Rolling his eyes, he also got on the kang. Everything is good in ancient times, but the entertainment at night is pitiful. You said that it is not a problem for two people to just stand there and stare at each other, so he said : "Little Treasure, come here, you have to sleep by yourself from today, but you can sleep next to Dad, tomorrow Dad will get you a toy you like, and you can sleep with him every day, so you won't be afraid. "

Tong Xiaobao, you look small, but you are still very clever, immediately nodded and said: "I listen to you, I will sleep by myself now."

When Li Xiu saw that the child was so obedient, he kissed Tong Xiaobao happily. When Da Zhuang saw it, he felt uncomfortable. You are my wife, how can you kiss others? , I couldn't help but rolled my head, "What kind of eyes do you have! Why are you jealous with a child?"

When Da Zhuang was told by him, they couldn't help but said: "In the future, you are not allowed to kiss others casually. You are my wife, you can only kiss me, and you Tong Xiaobao, you are not allowed to kiss you casually."

Tong Xiaobao looked at Da Zhuang, but didn't dare to say anything, Li Xiu glared at him, "Why are you scaring him? Sleep with you, you're not sleepy, you've been busy all day."

Da Zhuang looked at Li Xiu and the child, didn't say anything, took off his clothes, and got into bed, but his eyes were still looking at Li Xiu, Li Xiu really had no choice but to say: "Okay, I Is it okay to sleep with you? But just this time, tomorrow will not work, the child looks at that. "

Da Zhuang was immediately happy, "Okay, as long as my daughter-in-law sleeps with me."

Li Xiu slandered in his heart, this idiot is also black-bellied, and it's okay to be jealous with such a young child, but it also shows that this guy still cares about himself.

Tong Xiaobao got into the bed obediently, and just looked at Li Xiu with big shining eyes. In his little heart, he had already decided that Li Xiu was his aunt. He had never seen her since he was so old. Grandpa has always taken him with him. In his understanding, Ah Mo is the best brother to him, and only the best brother can be worthy of being his Ah Mo.

The look Li Xiu looked at him made his heart melt. Is this child longing for him to be closer to him?So he lay down next to him, stretched out his hand and patted the child gently, singing 'Twinkle twinkle twinkle twinkle, the sky is full of little stars. . . . . . '.

Tong Xiaobao stretched out his small hand, touched Li Xiu's other hand and said, "Ah, you are so kind." Then he yawned, and slowly closed his eyes. There was still a tear in the corner of his eye, which flowed down After coming down, Lixiu saw the tears of this child, and tears flashed in his own eyes. This child will be his own child in the future. Although they are not related by blood, they are all orphans. In modern times, he is loved by his master. In this life, Tong Xiaobao He hurts. . . . . .

Da Zhuang looked at Li Xiu there, and felt uncomfortable, so he hugged him in his arms: "It's okay, it will be fine in the future, I will take him like my own son, and can you treat me as well?" So good, I..."

Lixiu looked at his appearance and couldn't help laughing, "You said you are so old and have the same knowledge as Xiaobao. I just look at the child with pity, but you are different. You are my whole life. The most important person. We are the ones who will grow old together!"

Da Zhuang was very moved by Li Xiu's words, he nodded and put his arms around Li Xiu, and fell asleep. In his dream, he also dreamed that he and Li Xiu were old and supported each other. . . . . .
