MTL - I’m the Hero, His Brother, Wear It Quickly-Chapter 329 Left-behind children【03】
Yuan Jia and Xia Yongxuan, two old cucumbers with green lacquer and tender appearance are really like two children.
Looking at the water stains on the concrete floor, Yuan Jia wiped his feet, put on his cloth shoes, and stood up: "I'll get a mop, you quickly wipe your feet and pour out the foot-washing water."
Xia Yongxuan obediently said "oh", put on his shoes after wiping his feet, picked up the foot wash and walked out.
Yuan Jia walked in with a cloth mop and wiped away the puddle of water on the cement floor.
At this time, Grandma Xia came in, saw Yuan Jia mopping the floor, and said, "You and Yong Xuan should go to bed early, don't make trouble too late, you have to go to school tomorrow."
Yuan Jia nodded and replied, "Got it, milk."
He and Xia Yongxuan went to bed after washing their faces and brushing their teeth.
There are two single beds placed side by side in this small room, Yuan Jia and Xia Yongxuan each have a bed.
When Yuan Jia saw that Xia Yongxuan was already lying on the bed, he reached out and pulled a rope at the head of the bed. With a "click", the light bulb in the room went out.
The room was darkened, and through the curtains at the door, the orange lights from the rooms of Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia could still be seen, and the two elders were not asleep.
Xia Yongxuan couldn't sleep either. He was lying on the bed and turned to look at his brother on the bed next to him in the dark. He could vaguely see his outline: "Brother, are you really going to call tomorrow?"
Yuan Jia said "um": "I will pass by Li Sanshu's canteen tomorrow when I go to school. I will go to school after calling. Go to bed early, don't think about it, there is a brother here."
Xia Yongxuan heard the phrase "I have a brother here", and a warm current surged in his heart.
Mingming's brother is only a fifteen-year-old boy now, but he is a tens-year-old man again, but somehow feels particularly secure.
Before he knew it, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Yuan Jia heard the sound of even breathing coming from the bed next to him, and knew that Xia Yongxuan had already fallen asleep, so he took out his mind and entered the chat group of the heavens and the world.
Immortal Venerable: [Is the weak, pitiful and helpless group leader danzi okay with you? 】
The weak and poor and helpless group: [Woohoo, the big guy quickly picked up the little ancestor back. It was almost dismantled by my house. The noise was so moved. I almost found that I had a panda at home. This is a bear sitting in prison! 】
The group owner is really about to collapse. The big guy's panda is too smart and cunning. He played around with him and made fun of him, but he couldn't beat this panda.
These days, he is really devastated. He was almost found out that he had raised a panda several times.
Danger is not dangerous, even because the boss's panda is by his side, all the beasts that have evolved due to the recovery of spiritual energy dare not approach him, but they provide him with protection.
But he was under a lot of pressure.
Yuan Jia replied to him: [Wait a little longer, the world I am in now is just an ordinary urban world, and I am possessed by a young man, and there are people around, so it is temporarily inconvenient for the group to come over. I'll take the group over tomorrow when there's no one left. 】
The weak, pitiful and helpless group owner: [Okay boss, no problem boss, I'll wait for you, boss. 】
The group owner breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the panda dumpling who was staring at the TV screen intently: "Master Tuan, the boss said he will pick you up tomorrow."
Tuanzi turned his head in surprise, stared at the group leader with a pair of panda eyes, and watched the group leader nodded subconsciously: "Yes, what I said is true."
The group hummed twice, the group leader could not understand his panda language, but he understood the admiring look in his eyes, and immediately licked his face and leaned forward: "Then I've been serving you so well these few days, Master Tuan. For the sake of oil and water, can Master Tuan help me fight a beast..."
<<<<<<
The next morning, Yuan Jia woke up and called Xia Yongxuan, who was still sleeping.
After the two of them washed up, Grandma Xia also made breakfast.
The breakfast is very simple, it is gnocchi soup with pickles.
The brothers went to school with their schoolbags after breakfast.
The village where the Xia family is located is undoubtedly poor, otherwise the young people in the village would not go out to work and would not go home all year round.
Therefore, children go to school in the town. From the village to the town, there is a long dirt road. When it rains, the road is muddy. Too narrow to drive, only walking.
Yuan Jia and Xia Yongxuan walked to the entrance of Kuai Village and stopped when they passed a compound.
Yuan Jia said to Xia Yongxuan, "Why don't you wait for me here and I'll call."
Xia Yongxuan was silent for a while and said, "I'll go with you."
Yuan Jia nodded and entered the courtyard, with Xia Yongxuan following behind him.
This is Uncle Li's home and the only shop in the village. Uncle Li opened the shop at home, and put all kinds of goods in a small room in his home. Those who want to buy things go directly to his home to buy.
When I entered the yard, I saw from the window that there were two shelves in the room. There were also a bunch of small snacks hanging on the window, and the packaging was very eye-catching.
Yuan Jia walked in with Xia Yongxuan. Uncle Li, who was arranging the shelves, heard the movement and looked back with a toothless smile: "It's Yuan Jia and Yongxuan, what do you want to buy?"
Most of the things sold in the canteen are daily necessities such as toothpaste, toothbrush, washing powder, soap, and various small snacks that make children greedy, most of which are all kinds of candy and spicy bars.
Yuan Jia looked at the poor quality packaging, and he didn't know how long it had been stored. Even without looking at the production date, he knew that there must be a lot of expired ones, and even some were estimated to be three-no-products. How could he buy these things?
So Yuan Jia said, "Uncle Third, we're not here to buy things, we want to make a call."
There is a public telephone in the commissary. Uncle Li asked his son to hire someone to install it. In this village with backward communication, if the elderly and children want to communicate with young people who work outside, they can only rely on his landline.
Uncle Li smiled and said, "Call your parents, right? Call, just put the money there when you're done."
After speaking, Uncle Li ignored the brothers and continued to organize the shelves.
Yuan Jia walked to the only clean landline. Compared with the dusty glass counter and the dusty goods, this landline was probably regarded by Uncle Li as the most precious thing, and it was cleaned every day. Very new look.
Yuan Jia picked up the handset and dialed the phone number in the original owner's memory, beeping several times before picking up the phone there, and a strange female voice came over: "Hey, this is the summer clothing store, may I ask if there are any? What's up?"
Yuanjia paused and said, "I'm Xia Yuanjia, I'm looking for my parents."
The other party was silent for a while, and then quickly said: "Yuan Jia? You are Yuan Jia, and I am your mother!"
Yuan Jia listened to the excited voice of Xia's mother coming from the telephone receiver, and didn't know what to say for a while.
It seems that Mother Xia is not a child who doesn't care about her child at all, and she is very happy to hear him call to find him.
Yuan Jia said hesitantly: "I want to tell you something. Grandpa has a cough recently. Can you take grandpa and grandma to the big hospital in the city for a check-up?"
Mother Xia asked, "Your grandfather has a cough? Is it serious?"
Yuan Jia replied: "Grandpa just likes to smoke. He coughs badly when he smokes. He also likes to cough at night. Can you..."
"Boss lady, how do you sell this?"
There was a faint voice on the other end of the phone.
Mother Xia didn't care that she was still on the phone with Yuan Jia, and responded to the customer: "Hey, that fifty-one..." Then Mother Xia hurriedly hung up the phone, "Let your grandfather smoke less and wait for us. Let's go back for the new year... Dududu..."
Yuan Jia listened to the beeps coming from the phone, looked up and saw Xia Yongxuan's mocking expression standing in front of him.
The voice of the phone was quite loud, and Xia Yongxuan, who was standing beside him, also heard Mother Xia's voice.
He was not surprised by this result, and sneered with a mocking expression: "I knew it would be like this, they are simply unreliable."
Yuan Jia didn't explain anything to Mother Xia, and put the phone receiver back.
Because Mother Xia and Yuan Jia hung up without saying a few words, within a minute of the call, Yuan Jia put the two cents on the counter and said to Uncle Li, "Uncle Third, the money is here. "
Then he took Xia Yongxuan out of Li Sanshu's house.
Walking on the bumpy road, Xia Yongxuan was still talking about his dissatisfaction with Xia's father and Xia's mother: "The most important thing in their hearts is career, as for the grandparents and us, they didn't take it to heart at all. They are useless at all, it is better for us to find a way to make money and take our grandparents to the county hospital for physical examination."
The city where Xia’s father and Xia’s mother work is already a provincial capital, and it is quite far from his hometown, so he can’t come back once or twice a year.
Yuan Jia was a silent listener, listening to Xia Yongxuan's complaints and venting, perhaps because no one had ever listened to his complaints before. At this moment, Xia Yongxuan had broken the indifferent and taciturn character in the original plot and turned into a small talk. tuberculosis.
After Xia Yongxuan complained, Yuan Jia asked, "Yongxuan, how do you think we should make money?"
Of course he wanted to find a lot of ways to make money, but the younger brother beside him was a reborn, not a real ten-year-old. Of course, he couldn't expose the difference between himself and the fifteen-year-old in front of the reborn.
So Yuan Jia simply threw the problem to the younger brother of the reborn, and became a brother who lay down and won.
Xia Yongxuan had a plan in his heart and said, "We can use the pocket money we saved before as capital, and then make money like this..."
