This person was wearing a thick blue cotton coat. He fell down like a heavy sack. He didn't get up for a long time, and the things in his hand fell two meters away.
"Sister, is it an old man?" Bai Lu murmured seeing that the passers-by were not helping.
Ling Moxue also noticed that the light was green now, she drove through the intersection with the traffic, looked in the rearview mirror again, and found that the old man was still lying on the ground and did not get up, so she turned the steering wheel and pulled the car to a stop.
"Lulu, sit down, I'll get out of the car and have a look."
"Sister, aren't you afraid of being blackmailed? It has been reported on the Internet that helping the elderly was blackmailed." Bai Lu worried.
"I know, but my sister doesn't believe that I will meet such a person. There are still many good and moral people in this world."
"Sister, let me wait a moment, I'll take a picture first."
"No need." Ling Moxue got off after finishing speaking, Bai Lu paused, and then unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car.
Ling Moxue ran to the zebra crossing to help the old man, while Bai Lu helped him pick up the things he had dropped, picked up and turned around, and suddenly heard Ling Moxue exclaimed: "Uncle?"
Bai Lu was taken aback, where did uncle come from?
"Uncle, uncle!" Ling Moxue was a little excited, she quickly helped the old man with a dark complexion and a limping right leg to the side of the road and sat down.
Yao Jialiang rubbed his eyes, trembling all over, looked up at this beautiful and noble woman in front of him, he couldn't believe that she would call him "uncle".
"Girl, who are you? Do you know me?" With trembling purple lips, he looked at Ling Moxue suspiciously.
Under the orange street lamp, his hair was gray and disheveled, his forehead was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were cloudy and lifeless, and his brows were stained with the vicissitudes of time.
Ling Moxue's eyes were hot, and she was so excited that she wanted to cry.
She squatted down and held Yao Jialiang's dry and cracked hand like bark, her voice choked, "Uncle, I'm Xue'er, it's Xue'er! When I was young, you often hugged me. On the night my mother died, you were the one who always hugged me. Hold me and let me sleep in your arms, have you forgotten?"
Yao Jialiang was taken aback after hearing this, and then his eyes slowly lit up, his face couldn't stop twitching excitedly, his broken voice was full of excitement, "Xue'er? Are you really Xue'er?"
"Yes, uncle."
Yao Jialiang clasped her shoulders and looked at her in disbelief, "You're so big, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and you're so big that my uncle can't even recognize you."
He was in tears, old tears, trembling lips didn't know what to say.
Ling Moxue wrapped her arms around his waist excitedly, sobbing and said: "Uncle, I almost didn't recognize you, why are you so old now?"
If it weren't for the characteristic black mole the size of soybeans on her uncle's face, which happened to be between the eyebrows, making it easy to recognize, she would not be sure that this old man with gray hair and shambling steps was her uncle.
Calculated, he is only sixty years old this year. In the photo left by Yao's mother, he is young and strong, with good facial features and full of heroism. Now, he has entered his sixtieth year, but he looks older than his peers.
"It's hard to say, it's hard to say." Yao Jialiang repeated this sentence.
Ling Moxue wiped away the tears on her face, stood up and helped him up, "Uncle, let's not talk about it, let's go! I'll take you to my house."
...
The Gu Family Compound.
Ling Qiyue has always been curious about the "uncle and grandpa" that her mother picked up on the road. Although she half understands the conversations between adults, she still understands one thing, that is——
This beggar-like uncle is the elder brother of the deceased grandma, and the uncle of Ling Jingchen's uncle.
so complicated.
When Yao Jialiang arrived at Gu's house, he was naturally warmly received by Gu Jincheng. The butler took him to take a bath, put on new clothes, and combed his hair. After this change, he immediately looked energetic and his eyebrows became brighter.
After drinking some wine for dinner, Yao Jialiang looked much better.
He said: "I just came out of prison yesterday. It was snowing heavily in the north. It's better for you. I thought I haven't seen my sister for so many years. I came to see her and talk to her on the winter solstice." , I want to know the situation of the two children now... I don’t want to starve and faint on the street.”
It turned out that thirteen years ago, when Ling Zhongxiao dragged a pair of children into the Zhao family to marry Zhao Qin, Yao Jialiang, who was firmly opposed, beat him up and left N City. Since then, the two families have had no contact.
He later went to work in a coal mine, and quarreled with his boss over wages and working conditions. The boss ordered someone to break one of his legs, and he almost stabbed his boss to death in anger. He was sentenced to more than ten years in prison.
Because he performed well and served ten years in prison and was released from prison, he drove all the way back to his hometown yesterday, changed his mind and went to N City, and went to Yao Yizhen's cemetery to pay homage, but he couldn't find Ling Zhongxiao when he came back.
He inquired and searched all the way aimlessly. Because he was penniless, he passed out from starvation because he had nothing to eat or drink all day and night.
Before Ling Qiyue saw her mother, she had been giving candies to her uncle and grandpa. After he finished eating, she also took out a piece of chocolate from her bag and handed it over, "Grandpa, please eat candies. I see that your cheeks turn red after eating candies." gone."
"Hehe..." Yao Jialiang happily wanted to hug her, "Like, you look so much like your mommy when you were young, come, give me a hug from your uncle and grandpa."
"No, just rest." Still too unfamiliar, Ling Qiyue ran to play with Bai Lu.
Yao Jialiang looked at Ling Qiyang who was on the opposite sofa, then turned to look at Gu Mingxuan beside him, with a happy smile on his thin face, "Xue'er is lucky, she found such a good husband, and her sons and daughters are so obedient and smart, She's suffering the end of it."
"Uncle, it is my fate to marry her." Gu Mingxuan smiled and handed over a cigarette.
Wan Jialiang wiped his clothes twice before taking it tremblingly. Gu Mingxuan ordered it for him personally. When Ling Jincheng saw the servant making tea, he drew his hand, and Ling Qiyang immediately slid off the sofa and asked the servant to put the plate on the table. Put it in his own hand, walked up to Wan Jialiang and said respectfully: "Uncle, grandpa, please drink tea."tqR1
Wan Jialiang was deeply moved, he took the tea, and said to Gu Jincheng: "I, Yao, have seen such a wealthy Gu family with tutors."
Through the dinner, the chat and the treatment he received, Yao Jialiang could see that Gu Jincheng is upright, courteous, and of high moral character. This is how he has a strict and peaceful family tradition, and a scene of prosperity.
Gu Jincheng enthusiastically kept Yao Jialiang at his home for a few more days, Yao Jialiang shook his head and said that he would go back when he saw Ling Jingchen tomorrow.
"Uncle, how is Miss Susu doing now?" Ling Moxue asked.
"I heard that she works in a middle school cafeteria. She is two years older than you but not married." He smiled.
"Then if you have a chance, let her come over to play. I haven't seen her for more than ten years."
"Okay, good!"
...
After Ling Jingchen received a call from Ling Moxue, he took the train back to City N overnight, and it was already past two o'clock in the morning when he arrived home.
He took out the key to open the courtyard door, walked in and suddenly saw that the lights on the first floor were still on, he blinked suspiciously, he went directly to open the door, but found it was locked.
As a last resort, he had no choice but to ring the doorbell and shouted: "Qinghui, Qinghui! Please open the door, I'm back."
Sima Qinghui in the room trembled all over, and hurriedly pushed away the man beside her.
