Crossing the road to riches

Chapter 12 The Night Walk

Wen Hao suddenly appeared behind Mrs. Zhao and called out, "Father! What are you talking about? Why are you threatening people? I don't agree with what you said."

This almost frightened Zhao Shi's soul away, and he immediately pulled his ears: "None of you three can worry about it, you're going to piss off your father and me, right?"

The burning sensation in my ears was about to fall off, and I repeatedly begged for mercy: "Dad is wrong, wrong, my ears are going to fall off, Dad, are you gluttonous, want to pull my ears off and fry them?"

Mrs. Zhao was amused by this funny look: "I'm not doing it for your own good."

Wen Hao quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, but our top priority now is to solve the current crisis in our family."

Nian Fufu huddled in the corner, watching Wen Hao being bullied, nervous and afraid. He used to tear his ears open several times when he was at home, bleeding all over his face, and scolding himself for being unlucky. Burning himself with the red poker, he kept staring at the pinched ear, and quietly pulled a small stick in his hand, but he was afraid.

Fortunately, just as he was about to rush up, Mrs. Zhao let go, and Nian Fufu then withdrew his gaze and continued to stare at his feet.

Wen Hao put the tall and full back basket on Nian Fufu's back, his own didn't seem to have that much but actually it was heavier than Nian Fufu's, the mother saw it but it didn't matter If there is no puncture, a woman should be a little bit responsible.

Mrs. Zhao found a thick hemp rope in a particularly exaggerated manner, tied one end to Nian Fufu's hand, and gave the other end to Wen Hao, and said: "He is carrying so many valuable things on his body. If you lose it, don’t lose it.”

He gave Wen Hao another path-finding stick: "Walk and beat more in the grass, so you don't encounter snakes."

This is really an exaggeration, but in order to prevent the people in the room from worrying, Wen Hao responded with a few words and left.

Wen Hao didn't stop until the family could no longer see him, looking at Nian Fufu at the other end of the rope, it looked like he was leading a puppy, but it was more like abduction.

Wen Hao walked over and untied Nian Fufu's rope: "It's hard to walk at night, keep up tighter, don't fall, tell me when you're tired, and take a break."

Under the moonlight, Nian Fufu's eyes were particularly clear, with the scars on his face falling into Wen Hao's eyes, with a pitiful look, Wen Hao said a few words in his heart, I felt pity for him.

And also came up with outrageous thoughts, it's not as fun as sister-in-law, bah!brother-in-law.

After this idea appeared, it was immediately cast aside by morality.

Curse yourself secretly, bah!Wen Hao, you are still not alone. In your previous life, you set up the Jade Girl Memorial Archway, and you still have lust after your waist belt has been strangled.

He twisted his thigh fiercely, and walked forward unconsciously with a guilty conscience.

Nian Fufu's hands were tied with hemp rope, and when Wen Hao was leading him, there was an inexplicable sense of security, but when he untied it suddenly, he felt a little lost.

He kept his head down and didn't speak, desperately catching up with Wen Hao's footsteps.

If he didn't have the two yams that went out to support him, he really couldn't stand it.

When he got out of the mountain road to the main road and was about to enter the town, Wen Hao turned his head to look at Nian Fufu, who had been left behind by him, and patted himself on the forehead heavily.

"Damn! I forgot that people can't speak anymore, and I can't shout out even when I'm tired."

He hurriedly put the things on the ground, greeted Nian Fufu pretendingly, and praised Nian Fufu: "Fufu is very capable, you must be tired, let's take a break before leaving."

Nian Fufu was covered in sweat, his face was pale and his lips were blue. He couldn't stand up straight and kept walking with his legs bent. His legs were already trembling with pain in his knees.

But when Wen Hao praised himself, he was still very happy in his heart, and shook his head to express that he was not tired.

Even with the moonlight at night, it wasn't real. Wen Hao still found something unusual, but he didn't ask too much. It's not a good thing to care too much about his brother-in-law.

Although he and the eldest sister did not get things done, but it was indeed bought to be the husband of the eldest sister. Even if it is not said, everyone in the village can guess, after all, the youngest in the family is a scholar, and the husband should marry a decent one. According to the rules, the older one got married again, and it was the younger one's turn.

So even if you don't say it, everyone knows it in their hearts.

After the break, Wen Hao forcibly took Nian Fufu's backpack and carried it to the front: "I'll carry it, I'm afraid people will see the joke."

Nian Fufu secretly jumped for joy and his heart fell into the ice cellar again.

But he agrees with Wen Hao's words.

What Wen Hao meant was that if two people are walking together with a healthy woman and an unhealthy man carrying heavy loads, others will laugh at her for being useless.

Obviously Nian Fufu resigned.

But she is gentle and not a master in her heart, nor is she a roundworm who has become a sperm. It is estimated that Nian Fufu starved to death long before the roundworm became a sperm.

But finally got there.

Knock on the wooden door, bang bang bang! : "Master, excuse me, I will open the door for you."

The old man tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep at all, when he saw the little girl coming.He quickly got up.

"Hey~ here we come".

Seeing Wen Hao who had carried so many things on his back, he quickly came to help him. The little old man had bad breath, but he spoke very sweetly, and he kept praising: "It's rare to see such a diligent and responsible girl these days. The child is the head of the family early, the blessing of the parents."

Wen Hao kept being modest: "Where is that?"

Wen Hao likes this old man very much, but she doesn't want to talk too much. She always evaluates people tactfully, but bad breath really makes people feel a little nauseous.

Now it's not just the bad breath of the little old man, but also the sour smell of Nian Fufu.

Wen Hao had no choice but to ask the amiable old man again: "Master, can you borrow some clothes for my little brother so that he can wash and wash."

The old man took a few glances at Nian Fufu with a gossipy face: "Isn't this your husband? It doesn't look like your little brother either."

Wen Hao hurriedly said haha, you must know that no matter where the power of the elderly in information collection and dissemination is, it cannot be underestimated: "Master, I am still young, and I have an older sister at home. Don't worry about getting married." in a hurry".

The old man looked at the two of them with the eyes of someone who had been here, and looked at Nian Fufu with some pity.

"I think the doll's hair is too messy. I'll take him to wash it, and cut and tidy up the doll by the way."

Wen Hao started to pack his things, and now he was short of sugar, so he went to buy all the sugar earlier.

After a long time, the old man saw that Wen seemed like a pitiful wretch, so he pulled him aside and said in a low voice: "You are still young, don't worry about getting married, you will make money in the future, and when you are decent, there will be matchmakers in the village. One family should at least serve the men who are healthy, and the other family does some groceries, waits on the older ones, and feeds the mouth. It is not a bad treatment if you are not hungry."

This old man really persuaded Wen Hao to be his granddaughter. Otherwise, it would be hard for outsiders to tell. This is considered warm-hearted. Wen Hao also understands that this is not the past, and he has to adapt to the times.

He laughed and said: "I said, old man, you are going to enjoy the blessings, don't worry about it so much, I am really young, I am still a bean".

The old man caught a glimpse of Nian Fufu coming out, and immediately went back into the house with a smile.

Wen Hao looked at Nian Fufu, he was tidy, his hair was tied up with a rope, and he looked good, but his legs were a little strange and kept bending.

Wen Hao was still not used to facing the mute, so he spoke quickly: "What's wrong with your leg, is it hurt because you can't stand upright?"

Halfway through the talk, I realized that Nian Fufu couldn't speak, and I apologized a little: "Sorry, I forgot that you can't speak."

Just after he finished speaking, he heard a hoarse, cowardly and cautious voice, but a very nice voice.
