Chapter 29

The old man seemed to have noticed something and said, "Miss Tao, is there something wrong with what I just said? You don't seem to be in a good mood."

Tao Zi was shocked, and immediately calmed down her emotions, explaining with a smile: "No, I just thought of what happened in the past, I'm really sorry."

She clapped her hands: "Okay, what are you apologizing for?"

Tao Zi supported her and said, "It seems that grandma has a good relationship with Yisan Sect."

"Of course, Old Man Wen and I have known each other for decades." The old lady sighed with emotion, "Decades ago, I called him grandpa, but now I can't call him grandpa."

It turns out that this is the case. No wonder she speaks like a quiet, old man. You should know that ordinary people will respectfully call immortals when they see an immortal cultivator, even if it is only for a small period of body training.

Before she could speak, the old man asked with a bit of a smile: "Miss Tao, where is that boy Yueshan? Why aren't you around? This is not in line with his temperament."

Tao Zi said sheepishly: "Master asked him to sell peaches. Grandma can just call me by my name, no need to be so polite."

"Okay, then grandma will call you Azi. Grandma told you that the better you are, the better everything will be, but occasionally you see a beautiful woman who can't walk. Don't be tempted, he is too carefree, which girl will follow him? He has a headache."

This was the first time someone said something like this to her. She was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to answer, so she could only change the subject: "Really? But I feel that Junior Brother Han has a very close relationship with Master, and Master has to teach him from time to time. "

The old lady smiled and said: "This is not closeness at all. It is clearly a teacher who is unkind and a disciple who is unfilial."

"what?"

"Azi, don't look at Xi Jing's love for money now. In fact, the one who loved money most in the past was Yue Shan. You probably don't know that for a long time, Yue Shan was looking forward to the death of old man Wen every day, just to receive the funeral gift. money."

Tao Zi looked at the old man in shock. The old man talked about this with a smile on his face: "Then one day, the heartless man actually asked the question directly in front of Old Man Wen, and Old Man Wen was so angry that he beat him up."

She was silent for a moment and then asked a question that surprised the old man: "Was Yisanmen very poor in the past?"

She was stunned and fell into memories: "It doesn't matter. Old Man Wen has the ability to make money, but he likes to plant peach trees too much. Every time he goes out, he will definitely plant trees when he comes back. Nine out of ten will die, and the money All the money was spent on buying saplings, and money was given from time to time to the old, weak, sick and disabled in the village, so there was not much left over. Later, Yue Shan came first, and a few years later, Xiao Xue and the others also came."

At this point, the old man hesitated to speak, as if he was struggling with something, but finally made up his mind and said: "Then one year, when Yue Shan was about five years old, old man Wen suddenly disappeared, and he was not seen for three whole years. After coming back, there was another big disaster in those three years, and there was no peach harvest. The better he was...he tore his clothes, pretended to be a beggar and went to Xujia City to beg, and almost didn't get beaten to death. Fortunately, Xi Jing and the others were killed. I got my food back."

Tao Zi was stunned.

"Yue Shan was a smart man. He was begging and learning to sing at the same time. He used his sweet words to please the girls in the building and support his younger brothers and sisters. Xiao Xue was three years old at the time and Xi Jing was two years old. The two of them were also sensible, no matter how hungry they were. He could only wipe his own tears and not run around. Later, when Xiao Xue was four years old, he took Xi Jing out and followed Yue Shan to learn how to please and behave, and he survived. "

She hesitated and asked: "What happened after the master came back?"

"After Old Man Wen came back, maybe because of his conscience, he didn't go out much anymore. Occasionally when he mentioned this matter, he just sighed that things can't be done at the same time. I didn't ask him what it was and what it was. Yue Shan was still tight at first. She followed her master and refused to leave. After she was sure that Old Man Wen would not leave, she became more and more disobedient until one day she suddenly got better and became what she is now. When Old Man Wen left, Xi Jing could not remember anything. , I don’t have any bad feelings towards him, I just love money very much when I grow up.”

Grandma thought of that period of history and let out a long sigh: "But it's good to survive. My youngest son died in that drought."

She shook the old man's hand and whispered: "Natural disasters are merciless." Grandma smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Girl, you don't know, my little son is a human being... That's all, let's not talk about it."

Tao Zi immediately understood what she meant and said, "These are also helpless."

The old man was quite surprised and looked over: "Girl, do you know what I mean?"

"I guess I guess it's not easy for Xi Jing and the others to survive."

People are so hungry that they will eat anything. It is not that she has never seen it before, and it is not surprising.However, Xi Jing and the others were beyond her expectation. They were able to protect themselves in that situation at such a young age.

The old man looked at her carefully, and after making sure that she really understood, he said: "Not many people can accept these things. This little girl's attitude is really surprising."

Tao Zi smiled, did not answer, and helped her walk forward slowly.

The former master was also a hands-off shopkeeper. She had been raising those people since she was 13 years old. She had never eaten anyone, but she had done nothing to survive.

Before walking a few steps, sweet laughter came from not far away.Grandma said: "That's your sister Li, go and have a look."

The woman had a bumpy figure, and her appearance could only be considered average, but her lips were particularly plump and beautiful.

Her eyes lit up when she saw Tao Zi, she walked over quickly and looked her up and down, and said, "Could it be the legendary girl Tao Zi?"

Tao Zi was surprised: "You know me?"

The woman giggled and said, "Hey, brother Yueshan just cried to me when he came down the mountain not long ago, saying that his fiancée became a senior sister. I'm afraid it was you. With such a good appearance, no wonder he is so depressed."

The corner of her mouth twitched, and grandma smiled helplessly and shook her head, introducing: "Azi, this is Widow Li in our village. You can just call her Sister Li."

Tao Zi was really silent this time. Is this the legendary Widow Li?One of the girls Han Yueshan harmed?

Widow Li smiled, held her hand and looked at her grandma and said, "Grandma, I see you are tired too. Why don't you rest on the stone bench here first? I will take little Azi to find Xi Jing."

Grandma nodded cheerfully: "Okay, it just so happens that I can't walk either."

"Little Azi looks like she knows me?"

Tao Zi responded: "I've heard of it."

Widow Li became interested: "What have you heard of? Did you hear that I wanted to raise brother Yue Shan as a child adoptive husband, or did you hear that I chased Old Man Wen with a knife to chop him?"

what? !

 Scold me, I want to scold myself too
