Youthful Splendid Edge

Chapter 2 Adopting Orphans
The baby squinted his eyes and kept crying, his hands and feet seemed to be moving constantly, as if he was about to tear off the worn little jacket on his body, and his thin face was flushed red.

Ye Er was startled, and quickly picked up the baby from the basket without even thinking about it. Although he couldn't speak, he started to mutter in his heart: "Oh, what's going on, what kind of cruel parents are you?" , Throwing the child in this garbage dump, isn't this damaging the child's name?"

While muttering in his heart, Ye Er was also troubled in his heart. In this chaotic war-torn era, once a baby is abandoned by its parents, if it is not very lucky or well-meaning people take it in, then the only thing waiting for the baby is death, especially for this baby. Children under the age of one, even traffickers would think they are too young to take away.

At this moment, Ye Er began to struggle in his heart, his hands seemed to be carrying a heavy burden, but when he saw the child's pure and bright eyes, he couldn't put them down no matter what.

In fact, Ye Er knew his own situation very well in his heart. Living alone was a simple life where one person had enough to eat and the whole family had no worries. I have never raised a child in my life, if I really want to bring a child, then in the future...

"Ah, wow, wow, wow wow."

While Ye Er was thinking, the baby suddenly cried out again, which made Ye Er recover from his thoughts. Looking at the baby's flushed little face, Ye Er's heart completely melted, and he wrapped the baby even tighter with his hands.

Having made up his mind, Ye Er took the baby and rode back home on his broken three-wheeled wheel.

Ye Er's house is not big, but it is very tidy. One bed takes up one-third of the whole room, one table, two chairs. A certain amount, Ye Er will take it to the recycling station in the town to sell.

"Whoa whoa whoa."

After a busy day, people are already very tired. Coupled with the baby's constant crying, even his voice started to become a little hoarse, as if he didn't know how tired he was at all, which made Ye Er even more upset.

At this time, Aunt Niu next door came to Ye Er's room with a look of surprise on her face, as if she was in her own house, she didn't know how to be polite at all: "Oh, dumb, where did you get this child from? Could it be that you picked it up?" Right? Oh, let me tell you, you can barely support yourself, so why are you picking up a child?"

In this war-torn era, many children are lost, but few are picked up. As an old neighbor for more than ten years, Aunt Niu is also worried about Ye Er's future livelihood. After all, raising a child is not a task. easy job.

Aunt Niu’s name is Niu Li, and she is the wife of Zhang Dachui next door. She is a kind-hearted woman. Aunt Niu has two sons named Zhang Ming and Zhang Liang.

As the saying goes, a craftsman can't die of starvation in a famine year. This is true, but Zhang Dachui's cooking skills are well-known far and wide. He opened a stall in front of his house, and he can earn a little money every day. In addition, Aunt Niu cooks at night. Order Suzhou embroidery work to subsidize the family. It can be said that the life of the family is relatively moist.

It's just that Zhang Dachui is a bit of an idler, he likes to drink, drink and gamble, so the family is also living a poorer and richer life.

"Ah, ah, ah." Ye Er couldn't speak, holding the child and handing it to Aunt Niu, while gesturing with his hands.

"Hehe, dumb, I know you are kind, but you have never raised a child, so naturally you don't know the difficulties. Just like now, when a child cries, it has many different meanings, you rough man How can I understand, yo, this is still a little girl, she looks quite juicy."

Aunt Niu and Ye Er have been neighbors for many years, and naturally understood Ye Er's hand gestures quickly. She quickly took the baby from Ye Er's hands with a smile, placed it carefully on Ye Er's bedside, and began to unwrap it tightly. His little jacket, his brows also became serious following the movements of his hands.

"Oh, the jacket is so tightly wrapped, the child is not breathable at all, and the rain has also soaked in, so the child will naturally feel uncomfortable."

Aunt Niu skillfully untied the baby's jacket, and immediately went to get Ye Er's quilt to wrap the baby up, then handed it to Ye Er, and continued to explain to Ye Er: "I'm afraid the child is hungry, and I still have some rice soup at home. Now go get it for you."

"Ah, ah, ah." Ye Er carefully took the baby again, and smiled gratefully at Aunt Niu.

Living in such a difficult age, it is not easy for a dumb person like Ye Er who has no special skills to support himself, not to mention bringing a baby girl Aunt Niu, seeing Ye Er's happy appearance, can't help shaking Shaking his head, he walked away from Ye Er's house step by step.

Soon, Aunt Niu brought some supplies for the baby besides the rice soup cooked at home. This was also due to the fact that Aunt Niu had raised two children. Although many of the baby’s supplies were dilapidated, they In those days, it was a relatively good resource.

Following behind Aunt Niu are Aunt Niu's husband Zhang Dachui, 4-year-old eldest son Zhang Ming, and youngest son Zhang Liang.

Zhang Dachui has a lot of craftsmanship if he wants to say that he cooks good dishes, and there are not many chefs in this area with a radius of [-] meters who can compare with Zhang Dachui's craftsmanship, not to mention that the price of Zhang Dachui's stalls is cheaper than that of nearby chefs. The restaurants here are cheap, so many people would rather go to Zhang Dachui's stall for a few stir-fries than go to the nearby restaurants.

It is said that once a person has spare money, he can’t sit still. Zhang Dachui is such a person. As long as he makes money, he will drink some wine and gamble in the casino. At this time, even if the king of heaven comes, he can’t stop him , but he is very loyal. If we use today's words, Zhang Dachui is a good person, but his embryo is a little bit bad.

Seeing the mute holding the baby girl, Zhang Dachui walked over with a smile. He originally planned to tease Ye Er, but when the baby girl saw a stranger approaching, she yelled at Zhang Dachui again. , Zhang Dachui was stunned for a few seconds before he recovered his strength. Seeing the baby girl's pink face, he had already forgotten to tease Ye Er, and instead stretched out his hand to touch the baby girl's face.

"Hey, dumb, this child is quite juicy, but you are a big man, how can you take care of the child with slow hands and feet? It is very difficult for us to talk to you about kissing, if you really Decided to adopt this girl, I don’t think any woman would want to live with you.”
