CHAPTER 98, Shandong Dao, within the borders of Texas, at a gathering of ten thousand families: "Who wants to drink tofu soup now?" I want a big bowl of tea with salt now! Grandfather, just buy me a bowl! " The little girl continued to act coquettishly, not treating the big bowl of tea her grandfather had just mentioned as a lie.
The old man coughed twice, and whispered to his granddaughter: "Granddaughter ah! This bowl of tea costs a coin, and your parents only have a salary of a few tens of coins a day. They even have to take care of you and me, how do you think we have the money to drink tea?! "Niuniu, can I sell this to you for a drink the next New Year?
As expected, after the old man finished speaking, the little girl stopped messing around. She took out a small notebook from her bosom and said seriously: "Grandfather, I won't drink anymore today! Niu Niu, stop drinking! " The old man saw that his granddaughter didn't want any more tea, so he smiled and said, "Niuniu is such a good child!"
The old man's granddaughter's name was Niu Niu. Presumably, people in the countryside would give her a nickname for their children, and Niu Niu might be her nickname. Of course, if she lived her entire life without going out, married, had children, and slowly aged, then she might only have this name!
Niu Niu smiled. Her laugh was sweet and melodious. "Grandpa, I'll write it down first. Wait for me …" As Niu Niu said this, her voice suddenly disappeared. Although Long Sanming didn't have any thoughts towards this grandfather-grandson pair, he heard the little girl's voice disappear. He turned his head to look with some doubt in his heart.
He saw the girl and the old man still sitting at the table behind him, but the two of them were silent. It was probably because the girl was poor, and there were many Ma Clan Escorts coming and going in this gathering of ten thousand families, making it even more bustling than in the past. The little girl couldn't help but want to tempt the little girl with a lot of things, and every time the parents couldn't afford it, they would let the little girl write it down, so they could buy it when they had the chance in the future!
In that moment, a bitter and bitter feeling welled up in Long Sanming's heart, as if he was once again seeing his miserable childhood. Just then, the waiter in the shop had already served tea, as he shouted out, "Here comes the tea! Sir, please enjoy your meal! "
Long San Ming saw the waiter bring tea and was about to turn around to leave when he said in a low voice: "Waiter!" After the waiter obeyed, he quickly turned around and said: "What other orders do you have?!" Long Sanming replied, "Go and get a big bowl of tea for this grandfather-grandson pair behind me. Add some salt and bring it here as soon as possible! Just leave the account with me! "
When Long Sanming said this, the waiter was surprised for a moment. But since someone paid for it, he did not mind. This grandfather-grandson pair and the owner of this store had some favours, so they were allowed to drink a few cups of cold tea. What about it? Does esteemed guest know these two people?! "
Long Sanming's gaze swept across and was filled with a dark and stern expression. He scared the waiter so much that he hurriedly took a step back. Long Sanming slightly shook his head and said: "Now, go and get some tea. Don't miss my ten minutes of travel!"
The waiter submissively replied, "Yes! Yes! Dear guest, please wait! I'll bring it over here! " After saying that, he quickly turned around and entered the back hall! He must have been frightened by Long Sanming's sinister look just now!
Although the conversation between Long Sanming and the waiter was not loud, everyone in the store could hear it clearly. They all turned around to look at Long Sanming on the left, and saw that he was just an ordinary martial artist, so they didn't pay too much attention to him.
After the old man heard Long Sanming's words, he hurriedly walked over and said: "This old man cannot afford to have such a guest!" When Long Sanming saw the old man's appearance, he suddenly felt that he had seen this person somewhere before, but it was hard for him to recall where. He thought to himself: There are too many similar people in this world. And then he said, "Sir, there is no need to be so polite. People of the martial arts world are all brothers. "Please do not delay it!"
Before the old man could say anything, the little girl ran to the side of Long Sanming's body and said: "Uncle! "Are you really treating me to tea?!" Long Sanming smiled slightly and said: "You heard about it just now, how could you be wrong?" You can drink as many bowls as you want today! "
The little girl smiled with satisfaction and then said, "Uncle is really a good person. In the future, I will definitely get my revenge!" Long Sanming slightly smiled, but didn't say anything. He then said: "Uncle is not a good person, how do you know that? Uncle is a bad person, but you don't know that yet!"
The little girl slightly frowned, and then said: "Why does Uncle's words sound so fake? Are you kidding me?! " "Uncle never lies," said Long Sanming.
This made the little girl even more puzzled. At her age, there was no difference between good and bad. The only thing she could see was that everything in this world was beautiful and nothing was unacceptable! He knew how he had passed through the past several decades. The martial arts world was dangerous, and people fought and plotted against each other. In the end, he became the imperial bodyguard, and because he was strong in martial arts, several princes wanted him to be their subordinate. Even some of the plotting ministers tried their best to recruit him!
Most of the time, children wanted to grow up faster because they were already curious about the outside world that their parents couldn't care for. Once everyone had grown up, the painful events of life would slowly surface, but unfortunately, it was only wishful thinking to turn back into a child!
Faced with the little girl's puzzled expression, Long Sanming didn't know what to say for a moment. He just sat there silently, looking at the little girl's face. The old man sitting to Long Sanming's right saw that Long Sanming was silent, and thought that Long Sanming was trying to hide something, so he immediately said: "Niuniu, why are you asking questions when you have nothing to do?"
At the same time, the waiter brought the tea over. The old man placed the large bowl of tea into his granddaughter's hands and said, "Quickly drink it! Once you're done, we'll go home. Don't miss my uncle's time! "
After nodding his head, he picked up the large bowl of tea and gulped it down. Seeing her like this, Long Sanming's heart softened, and he took out a silver ingot from his bosom and handed it to the old man. He said, "Old sir, why don't you buy some things for me and give it to Niu Niu! "Just treat the rest of the wine like you've picked it up yourself, and subsidize the entire household!"
