I'm mentally retarded, who asked me to join Rules Monster Talk?

Chapter 301 Xiao Yi is dead
"Your... mother?"

Seeing those words, Xiao Yi frowned immediately.

He looked at the boy and asked slowly:
"You...were you separated from your mother?"

"..." The boy nodded and continued to write on the paper.

With Eve's help, he wrote another paragraph on paper.

"Mom asked me to wait for her, but I waited for her for a long time and she didn't come..."

"……Yeah?"

After seeing these words, Xiao Yi clenched his hands for some unknown reason.

But he still suppressed the emotions that emerged in his heart, smiled at the boy and said:

"Really? Mom hasn't come yet, so are you going to find her by yourself? You're so brave. I... don't have the courage like you."

Xiao Yi said, squatted down again, gently held the boy's hand, and said to the boy with an extremely serious expression:

Eve cheered up now and hurriedly ran towards the boy.

"..." Looking at the two people, Eve smiled happily. It seemed that he no longer had to worry too much.

"Hongli, don't get excited first..." Xiao Yi also said quickly: "Listen to my explanation first..."

Xiao Yi naturally didn't know what the boy was doing. This was... a secret between him and Eve.

"Ah... uh..." Xiao Yi wanted to explain, but the current situation did not allow him to do so.

"Well…………!"

"This..." Xiao Yi asked again: "Then, is there anything that can prove your identity?"

"..."

As soon as Xiao Yi opened the door, a cute little girl, slightly younger than the boy, immediately rushed over and threw herself into Xiao Yi's arms.

"Huh? What are you doing?"

Seeing the boy, Duan Hongli immediately made a sound as if she had expired.

"..." The boy still shook his head.

Xiao Yi, on the other hand, put down his daughter and showed a rare uneasy look towards his wife Duan Hongli.

"Xiao Xiao!" Xiao Yi immediately picked her up, with happy smiles on their faces.

Xiao Yi took another deep breath and said to the boy: "Don't worry, meeting again is also a kind of fate. I will do my best to help you. Then... your mother is here and nowhere else. ?"

"father!"

However, the boy lowered his head and shook his head silently.

"However, I will not give up because of this difficulty. I promise you that I will definitely help you find your mother... Can you trust me? If possible, I hope you can come to my home first , this matter can only be discussed in the long term. Before finding your mother, I hope... you can live as my family member for the time being. "

"I... want this child to live in our house for a while, is that okay?" Xiao Yi said and said toward the door: "Come in."

"..." The boy walked into the house silently.

So, the boy nodded slowly.

He had never heard his mother mention her own name. The boy had always called her mother and didn't know much else.

Afterwards, the boy followed Xiao Yi and prepared to go to his house together, but before that, Xiao Yi parked the car in front of a hospital and said to the boy:

"Damn it!" Duan Hongli grabbed Xiao Yi's neck with a face full of resentment, "You actually have a child outside, and it has grown so big! And I haven't done anything for so many fucking years. Notice it! Is it the child of you and your ex-girlfriend? I didn’t expect it to be... damn it!

Xiao Yi stretched out his hand to the boy. The boy looked at him a few times and then held his hand.

However, Eve was also a little depressed inside. Doesn't that mean she doesn't need herself?
At this moment, the boy waved to Eve in front of Xiao Yi's car door, asking her to come quickly.

"..." The boy's answer still only shook his head.

"Really? That's good. As long as you're still in this city, I'll have a way to find her. Then... what's your mother's name? As long as you know this, you can find her soon."

"..." The boy nodded.

……

"Come back?" At this time, another beautiful, young woman walked out of the house. It seemed that she was Xiao Yi's wife.

"Hongli, I have something I want to tell you..."

The boy didn't have any reason to refuse, so he went to the hospital with Xiao Yi first, and then went to his home.

"Isn't it true? That's right...it's hard to borrow official power now." Xiao Yi scratched his head and said with a helpless smile: "Can we only search blindly? It's not that difficult. but……"

Faced with such an abrupt request, anyone would probably hesitate. However, when the boy looked at the man in front of him, he felt the sincerity and desire in his heart.

"...Eh? Don't you know the name?" Xiao Yi suddenly felt troubled, "Is that so... So, what are the characteristics of your mother? Obvious characteristics that are easy to find?"

"Really? That's great..." Xiao Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, as agreed, I'm planning to go home, so let's go together."

"Can you give me a piece of your hair? I'll ask my acquaintance at the hospital to do me a favor and keep an eye out. If I'm lucky, I might be able to find your mother."

She looked expressionless, but with a smile on her face, she said to Xiao Yi:
"You came back later than usual today. Did you go fooling around? But forget it today, because it was just about to start dinner. When I went to see our mother today, she brought a lot of fresh vegetables. Let's eat first. "

"...What's wrong?" Duan Hongli's face became serious when she saw this.

"Oh..." Their daughter was watching this scene with interest.

"..." The boy had no choice but to step forward and pull Duan Hongli's sleeve.

"..." Duan Hongli knew that this was a grudge between the previous generation and that the child was innocent, so when facing the boy, she put away her dissatisfaction and calmed down a little.

Xiao Yi also had a chance to breathe and explained the matter clearly.

"Hmm... I see, he is looking for his mother." Duan Hongli nodded thoughtfully.

"Little brother..." Their daughter Xiao Xiao also came over and said to the boy: "Is your mother also lost? My mother was also lost, which made me look for her for a long time. It felt really good at that time. "It's very uncomfortable, so until you find your mother, my home is your home. If your mother doesn't agree, I will give you my room. I have the final say in my room and she has no control over it."

"This..." Duan Hongli couldn't help but hold her forehead, "I don't think I was the one who got lost at that time."

"So..." Xiao Yi asked timidly: "Can you agree?"

"Alas..." Duan Hongli sighed and said, "I have no reason to disagree, but you must also consider practical issues. We both have to go to the company to work, and Xiao Xiao also has to go to kindergarten. Is it right? Should we leave him alone at home?"

"Ah..." Xiao Yi also thought of this, "That's right."

"Little guy..." Then Duan Hongli knelt down again, smiled at the boy and said, "Are you... willing to go to school with Xiao Xiao? Although the procedures are a bit troublesome, we will get it done as soon as possible."

"..." However, the boy shook his head.

"If you don't want to, how about asking someone to take care of you at home?" "..." The boy still shook his head and wrote a paragraph on the paper with Eve's help.

"Thank you, but I don't need it. I just want to find my mother as soon as possible. While you are not at home, I will go outside to look for my mother and won't disturb you."

"oops!"

But after seeing these words, Duan Hongli's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately hugged the boy into her arms and rubbed his head lovingly.

"What a sensible and smart child, so pitiful! I wish you were my child..."

Xiao Xiao: "...Ah? What about me?"

"You..." Eve also stared at the side, her two small fists clenched, and veins popped out on her forehead.

If she couldn't interfere now, she really wanted to...! Forget it.

"But..." Duan Hongli added: "This is still a bit uneasy."

"Let's do this." At this time, Xiao Yi said: "Let her stay with our mother. Anyway, our mother also likes to walk around on weekdays, and... we rarely have time to spend with her..."

"...Yes, ah." Duan Hongli agreed very much, "Indeed, leave him to our mother. They can take care of each other, and our mother is not far from us, so it's okay. Go visit them often.”

Later, they asked the boy for his opinion.

The boy didn't have any objections to this. He just needed a place to sleep while he was looking for his mother.

It is a great blessing to be able to get help from other people.

Then, the boy had a meal with the family, and he saw what a complete and happy family should look like.

Then, the boy followed Xiao Yi to his mother's house.

"……Mother."

Xiao Yi opened the door and called out softly toward the old woman sitting there knitting a sweater.

When the mother-in-law heard the sound, she stopped what she was doing and looked at Xiao Yi.

She has no emotional fluctuations, and even though she is old, she still has a calm and confident temperament. When she was young, she must have been a great person.

However, after all, that was just something that happened when I was young, something that has passed away and has nothing to do with the present.

"You're here." She just responded calmly.

"Mom..." Xiao Yi said helplessly: "Why are you so busy again? Take a rest."

"Hmph..." She snorted coldly, "If you don't stay busy, you won't have to be busy soon. So, what's the matter with you? Is it related to the child?"

The mother-in-law said, looking at the boy.

"Mom, I want you to take care of this child, can you?"

Xiao Yi recounted the cause and effect again, and her mother-in-law, after being silent for a long time, slowly replied:
"I have no objection, let this child stay here, and..."

She looked at Xiao Yi again, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

"You...you've grown up, you've grown so big..."

"What are you talking about, mom..." Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Didn't I grow up long ago?"

"...Yeah, I never noticed it."

After making arrangements for the boy, Xiao Yi left, leaving only the boy and his mother-in-law in the house.

The mother-in-law immediately looked at the boy and said slowly:
"I don't care what the reason is for you to come here. The rules here are very simple, just six words... He who doesn't work can't eat. If you want to have a bite to eat, you have to work. Don't think I'm like them. Gentle, if you don’t want to do it, get out of here.”

"........."

The boy said nothing, but silently picked up the nearby broom and swept the floor.

He didn't intend to eat and drink for free, rather, this would be more in line with his ideas.

The boy has never gone to school, but he has also learned a truth. When you are alive in this world, you will inevitably have connections with others. You cannot sever them. You can only judge by yourself how to face this relationship.

The boy's way of dealing with contact is also very simple. He will be sincerely nice to anyone who is sincerely nice to him. If others provide help, he will also provide corresponding help to others. If someone treats him badly, he does not need to treat him badly. It has a good attitude.

Therefore, those who do not work do not get to eat, which is also in line with the boy's understanding. He has no complaints about this. It is better to say that he is a little happy in his heart.

It was not a charity, but an equal transaction, which made him feel that he was no longer being treated like a child.

"...Very good." Seeing the boy's actions, the mother-in-law nodded, then got up and went somewhere unknown.

After a while, after the boy finished cleaning, he saw his mother-in-law coming in with a bowl of sugar water.

"Eat." She said: "He who does not work shall not eat. This is what you deserve. Remember to wipe your mouth after eating. I will make the bed first. Go to bed early tonight. I will eat it early tomorrow morning." Go out and wake up early if you want to follow."

"........."

This is...the acquaintance of the boy and his mother-in-law.

One night passed, and when it was still dawning the next day, my mother-in-law had already gotten up.

She was used to getting up at this time, but she thought that the boy would definitely not be able to get up yet, so she had better wait a little longer.

Then, when she saw the boy waiting at the door, she couldn't help but be surprised.

However, she still looked unhappy and said to the boy:
"Why do you wake up so early? Children need to sleep more to grow taller."

She secretly decided that even if she woke up later, it would be better not to get up in a hurry.

So, the boy went out with his mother-in-law.

What my mother-in-law does when she goes out is very simple, just walk around and look around, and then pick up some scraps to sell.

The boy also picked up some scraps and got some money. This was the first time he made money by himself, and he was very happy.

The boy's first thought must be Eve, but Eve couldn't accept his gift, so he suddenly bought a bubble-blowing toy.

Since Eve can't accept the real thing, let's blow some bubbles for her to see. The concept of gifts is not limited to physical objects. Eve can also accept gifts like this.

Although fleeting, it is also very beautiful.

Eve was naturally very happy to receive this gift that she could accept.

With the remaining money, he planned to buy something for Xiao Yina's family in return for their kindness.

However, at this moment, the boy learned a piece of news that he had never expected.

Xiao Yi, who had promised him with a smile yesterday that he would find his mother, died today...
