Poor children

Chapter 77
一
"Hey! Girl! You're here!" The poor boy was grabbed by the old woman as soon as he entered the hospital.

"Well! I'm here, mother-in-law, are you okay?" The poor boy asked the old woman while holding her hand

"Just before dawn this morning, while I was still sleeping, a few young men came and renovated my house without saying a word. I don't know what they meant, but they scared me so much that I couldn't understand."

"Mother-in-law, don't panic. I saw that your house was about to collapse, so I asked this young man to help find someone to help you repair the house." The poor man pulled the old woman into the house.

"Ah! In this case, I would like to thank the young lady and the young master." The old woman picked up her other hand and wiped the tears that leaked out.
"Have you had dinner?" The poor boy and the old woman entered the house together and saw new bedding and food on a broken wooden table next to the stove.

"I woke up when they came. I was a little frightened and stayed outside the house. I didn't have time to eat." The old lady arrived.
"Where did they all go?"

"I just left for a while, maybe I finished my work and went back." The old woman had been standing outside for a long time. Seeing that her body couldn't stand it any longer, the poor man helped her sit down at the table.
"Mother-in-law, just sit here and rest. I see they bought you rice. I'll cook you some porridge and you can just have some snacks, okay?"

The old woman sat on the stool obediently and nodded.

The poor boy took a pottery basin, grabbed two handfuls of rice, went in and walked to the water tank, but the water tank had already reached the bottom.

"Mother-in-law, is there a bucket at home?"

"It's sitting next to the door."

"Where is the well in the village?" asked the poor boy.
"Hey! That's far away, it's the road in front of the door, all the way to the end, at the other end of the village."

The pauper probably knew the location of the well, so he went out of the house. Sure enough, he saw a big wooden barrel standing by the door. He reached out to lift it, but Tian Xing snatched it away.

"You're a girl, why are you carrying a bucket?"

"There is no water at my mother-in-law's house. I will bring a bucket back."

"I'm right here, why didn't you ask me to go? How can a girl like you carry such a heavy bucket?" Tian Xing was a little annoyed with her.

"I'm a daughter, but I'm not a delicate person. It's just a bucket of water. Why can't I lift it?"

"Anyway, you're not allowed to go, you just wait here, I'll go!" Don't let the poor man say more, Tian Xing turned around and left
The pauper returned to the house again. This house can be described as a house with four walls. You can see everything at a glance.

"Mother-in-law, do you still have firewood at home?"

"No, there is no food at home, and I haven't made a fire in many days." The old woman arrived
"Then when you could still make fires in the past, where did your firewood come from?" Pao'er asked.

"It's in the nearby woods." The mother-in-law pointed to the woods not far from the house.
"Then you just sit here and wait while I pick up some firewood and come back."

Within a moment, the poor man came back with a big armful of firewood. From a distance, he saw a man in the courtyard. Judging from the man's stature and clothes, he must not be Tianxing. He was a little far away, so the poor man couldn't see it. , it seemed that the man was kicking something hard, Pao'er felt something was wrong in his heart, and he speeded up his feet.
Because that half was blocked by a broken earth wall, the poor boy could only see clearly when he reached the gate of the courtyard. It was actually the old woman who the man was kicking.

Upon seeing this, Pao'er hurriedly threw down the firewood in his hand and rushed forward. He pulled the man away and squatted down to protect the old woman. "Who are you and why did you hit someone?" Pao'er was so angry that
The man was stunned when she pulled her, maybe he didn't expect anyone to come.

"He is my son" my mother-in-law cried

The pauper was shocked. He didn't expect anyone in the world to treat his mother like this. "Why do you treat your mother like this?"

"He wants to exchange my quilt for money." My mother-in-law cried fiercely, but she still protected the newly bought quilt under her body and held it tightly with her hands.
"Are you still human? It's going to get cold today. You don't care about your mother's shabby house because of the draft. You don't feel bad about her thin clothes. You actually want to sell her quilt to keep out the cold?"

The man shook his wrist, which was injured when he was pulling his mother-in-law, "How can a dirty woman like her deserve such a good bedding? Besides, it's not just a day or two that she doesn't have a bedding. It would be better if her muscles and bones are cold." "It's easier to get sick if you're covered with a quilt and it's warm. I don't have time to talk to you. Please give me the quilt quickly." After saying this, he stretched out his hand to grab it.
The old woman just held on to the quilt and cried. The poor man stood up and pushed him away, and slapped him in the face with a big mouth. The man was unexpectedly slapped with a big mouth. First he covered his face and was stunned, and then he started to slap him. The fist comes to beat the poor boy
Maybe he didn't look carefully just now, so he raised his fist and saw the poor boy's face clearly. "Hey! This girl is so pretty, I didn't notice it. Which garden in the city do you come from? What's your name?" What's your name? I'll go and cheer you up next time."

The pauper couldn't help but feel even more ashamed and angry when he heard the insults in his words. She raised her hand to hit him again, but this time the man was on guard and grabbed her wrist.
"My temper is not small, it doesn't matter. I like people with a big temper, young master. If they are too easy-going, I won't be interested." As he spoke, he hugged the poor boy around his waist with his other hand. "Come here, let me kiss you first. You If you are happy to serve me, maybe I will redeem your life, and you will marry me as your wife..."

Before he could finish his words, there was a click, and Tian Xing kicked his hand off Pao'er's waist. With a strange cry of "Ouch", Tian Xing pulled Pao'er to him. arms

The poor boy was out of danger. He was so frightened that he hugged Tian Xing's waist tightly, trembling with fear.

Realizing that the poor boy was trembling, Tian Xing lowered his head and asked, "Did that kick hurt you just now?"

Pao'er shook her head repeatedly. When she raised her face to look at Tian Xing, she found that his eyes were red with anger, and his angry expression of wanting to kill was very scary.

"That's the old woman's son, please let him go. If anything happens to him, you will definitely get into trouble, and your mother-in-law will be sad..."

"Now this girl is interceding for you," Tian Xing said to the man who was still lying on the ground howling. "If this were not the case, I would definitely chop off your two dirty hands. Why don't you get out of here? You won't be allowed to do that again." Come here again”

When the man heard what Tian Xing said, he quickly got up from the ground and ran away staggeringly.

Tian Xing grabbed Pao'er's shoulders with both hands and kept looking at her up and down, for fear that she would be injured.

Seeing that he was worried, Pao'er said, "I'm really fine. I'm not hurt. Don't worry."

The poor boy pushed Tian Xing's hand away and leaned down to help the old woman. The old woman kept crying on the bed, but the poor boy couldn't help her up when he went to help her.

"My mother-in-law is old and frail, and she was so abused by her son. Not only was she physically injured, she must have been very sad. You see, she can no longer stand up," said the pauper anxiously.
Tian Xing couldn't help but walked forward and hugged his mother-in-law. The pauper hurriedly took the bedding into the house and spread it on the kang. Tian Xing then placed his mother-in-law and lay down on the kang.
The pauper sat down next to the old woman, took her wrist and checked her pulse.
"I'm going to cook porridge for my mother-in-law." After Tian Xing said this, he went to the stove outside to prepare it. There was still lingering anger on his face.

"My mother-in-law has no other problems. I just checked her body. There are many external injuries and she needs some sore medicine." The poor boy came out of the room and said to Tianxing after diagnosing the pulse.
"I always carry the golden sore medicine, it's under the saddle."

"Then I'll get it," the poor man said as he walked out.

He was grabbed by Tian Xing before he even took two steps. "I'll go get it. You are here. You are not allowed to be alone again. You have already made me lose control once today. I don't want it to happen again."
