Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 651

"Is the injury really serious?" Zhao Youtian couldn't believe it, thinking that Zhang Yu said it lightly because he didn't want him to worry.

Deep down, he believed that only seriously injured people would be hospitalized.

He's been hospitalized. Depending on the situation, it's not just a matter of a day or two. This injury can be considered minor.

The more Zhao Youtian thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he even began to wonder whether Zhao Wenzhuo had broken his arms and legs as people in the village said.

He looked at Zhang Yu and said with some difficulty: "Xiaoyu, just tell me the truth, how is your little uncle? Don't worry, I can hold on."

Seeing Zhao Youtian's "I know it all, don't lie to me" look, Zhang Yu was speechless for a moment.

He opened his mouth but didn't know how to explain to him that although his uncle was seriously injured this time, the matter was not as serious as he thought.

Zhang Yu's momentary silence confirmed Zhao Youtian's thoughts. His brother had suffered a serious injury, which might have been life-threatening, so Xiaoyu and the others had to hide it from him.

After coming to this conclusion, Zhao Youtian's eyes turned red instantly, his poor brother!

Zhang Yu watched helplessly as his uncle Xiaoyu misinterpreted his meaning and started to think about it. He felt a little desperate.

Looking at the uncle's red eyes, Zhang Yu only felt that he was finished and the misunderstanding had become big.

If my sister-in-law knew that the reason why the uncle was like this was because she didn't explain clearly, I'm afraid she would be beaten even if she was favored again!
In order to avoid being beaten, Zhang Yu hurriedly interrupted Zhao Youtian's continued thinking and explained seriously: "Uncle, my uncle is really fine. If you don't believe it, I will take you to the hospital now and let you see for yourself. Go check it out.”

"Really?" At this time, Zhao Youtian was still a little doubtful.

"It's absolutely true. You can know something when you meet someone. How could I hide it from you?"

Hearing Zhang Yu's explanation, Zhao Youtian's heart, which had been hanging on since he knew Zhao Wenzhuo was injured, finally relaxed a little.

After calming down, he finally realized what he had just done.

Did he cry in front of the juniors just now?

Thinking of this, Zhao Youtian's hand unconsciously touched his eyes. After touching the moistness of his hand, his whole body froze.

He really cried in front of the child just now, and even scared the child.

For a moment, Zhao Youtian felt like his head was buzzing, and he wished he had a hole in the ground where he could crawl into to avoid the embarrassment.

Thinking of what he had done just now, Zhao Youtian rubbed his face hard, his face full of despair.

He was confused just now. Xiaoyu said it was okay, but he actually scared himself.

The talkative women in Duyin Village made him think wildly.

Zhao Youtian tried his best to excuse himself in his heart, but he would never admit that it was his fault.

Looking at the old man whose ears were red, Zhang Yu couldn't help coughing, turned his head and laughed silently.

At this time, Zhang Yu finally found evidence that his uncle was raised by Zhao Youtian. The expressions of the two of them when they were shy were almost carved from the same mold. They were exactly the same, and their every move was more like that of a biological brother.

Just the way the two of them behaved when they were shy meant that no one in the family would believe it.Although Zhao Youtian's reaction made people want to laugh, the relationship between him and his uncle still made Zhang Yu feel very envious.

However, there is nothing wrong with him. His eldest brother and the others are also very good to him. Zhang Yu comforts himself in turn.

Thinking of how good his eldest brother and the others were to him, Zhang Yu puffed up his chest unconsciously. They were good brothers who loved him deeply. What's so surprising about this? He also had one, and there were more than one.

Zhao Youtian was embarrassed to speak because of the misunderstanding just now, and Zhang Yu was thinking a lot. As for the eldest son of the Zhao family, he had always been taciturn, and he would not interrupt at this time, so the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

In the end, Zhang Yu, as a junior, ended his random thoughts and came out to rescue.

"Brother, when did you get on the train?" Zhang Yu, who was used to getting along with his uncle, knew exactly how to deal with this situation. First of all, he should not talk to them who were shy, otherwise it would likely worsen the atmosphere.

At this time, start with the people next to you, so that the shy person thinks that what happened just now is insignificant and no one noticed it.

Then slowly bring up topics that interest them, guide them to join the discussion secretly, and let them gradually ignore what just happened.

Hearing Zhang Yu's question, the eldest son of the Zhao family hurriedly straightened up and replied honestly: "I was supposed to come last night, but I didn't buy the train ticket for last night, so the two of us were in the waiting room. I got some sleep and caught the first train today."

"Then you guys have had such a hard journey!" Zhang Yu sighed. At this time, the waiting rooms did not have the same conditions as in later generations. Nowadays, the waiting rooms in most places are just a few tile-roofed houses.

When there are many people, everyone even has to queue outside. You can imagine how miserable it is to spend the night inside in this situation.

"Why is this so hard? This is much better than when your uncle came to Beijing for the first time."

Zhao Youtian does not feel that the current conditions are difficult at all. Wen Zhuo only complained about them when he first came to Beijing.

At that time, his family was too poor to even afford a carriage ride, so Wenzhuo followed the caravan and walked from Baoding to Beijing on his own feet.

In order not to fall behind in line along the way, I didn’t even dare to drink more water, for fear that I would have to go to the toilet if I drank too much.

You must know that the caravan will not stop and wait for you to use the toilet. By the time you finish using the toilet, the caravan will have gone away.

Even so, how can a person's feet be compared to a horse? Even if they don't stop, people will often be thrown a long way by the caravan. The difference can only be made up by people's rest time.

After walking all day, my feet were covered with blisters. In order not to delay my walk the next day, I could only prick the blisters and release the blood inside.

This cycle goes on and on until the feet are bruised and bloody, almost disfigured.

Even though so many years have passed, a man like Zhao Youtian can't help but blush quietly when he thinks of the hardships Zhao Wenzhuo endured.

It was really hard at that time!
As long as there was some way to survive in his hometown, he would not let Zhao Wenzhuo leave his hometown.

But there was no way. If I didn't leave at that time, there would be no way to survive.

The outcome is good simply because Wenzhuo's suffering back then was not in vain, and now he can be regarded as a man with children and a successful career.

Thinking of this, Uncle Zhao's frown finally relaxed. His brother must live a long life and enjoy it, so that the good life he has worked hard for for half his life will not be in vain.
