Chapter 692 Confession
The north wind howled, rolled up the snow foam and drilled straight into the collar, this winter night was even colder.

Boss Zhang huddled in the car, his nose and tears were running from the cold, the uncle driving the car looked back at him and said.

"It's so cold, why don't you wear more clothes?"

Boss Zhang trembled.

"I forgot."

The uncle thought about it, probably because this person's family was not good, and he had no clothes, so he didn't ask any more questions, and waved his whip to tell the donkey to hurry up.

Boss Zhang wiped his nose and tears with his sleeve, lowered his head and shook with the bumps of the donkey cart.

When he was tired from work, he took off his outer padded jacket. When he saw Mrs. Liu, he thought something was wrong. He didn't care about wearing the padded jacket. Hungry, I met this old man who was going to town, got into his car, how could I have a chance to go back and get dressed.

At first he didn't know where he was going, but when the cold got worse, he remembered that he wanted to see his little girl.

But what should he say when he sees it?He was a little dazed.

As for children, like most men, he just needs to eat and drink, neither hot nor cold, and don't have to think about other things, mainly because he doesn't have that concept.

But even so, Liu's treatment of Zhang Xiaohua time and time again made him feel chilled. Although he didn't feel guilty about Zhang Xiaohua, he was still very uncomfortable.

What should he do if his parents insist on selling it?
Boss Zhang thought of this question, and his mood fell to the bottom again.

Although the donkey speeded up under the constant urging of the uncle, it was still a bit slow. It was late at night when it arrived at the house where Zhang Xiaohua used to live. The boss groped for a long time but couldn't find any money, so he asked the uncle to enter the house.

"This is my daughter's house, sir, go in and drink some water, I'll ask my daughter to give you the fare."

The uncle felt that he had pulled such a big man, and his donkey was very tired, so he should ask for a car fare, and besides, he was cold, so it was better to go into the house and drink some water to keep him warm.

"Okay, then it's troublesome."

Tie up the donkey, and call the door after Mr. Zhang.

After calling the door for a long time, an impatient voice came from inside.

"Who is it, in the middle of the night!"

"I, Zhang Xiaohua's father!"

It was quiet inside for a while, and then there were quick footsteps, and then the door opened, and a man wrapped in clothes held a lamp to shine on it.

"Ah, what a master, come in!"

It was Butler Zhang.

Boss Zhang hasn't been here for a long time, and he's still a little uncomfortable calling this master.

"Where's my little flower?" He called the old man behind to come in.

"Little flower girl is in Zhuangzi."

Butler Zhang let people into the house, lit the lamps, lit the stove, and got busy.

"Then I'll go to Zhuangzi." Boss Zhang heard that his daughter was in Zhuangzi, so he was about to leave.

"Master, are you in a hurry? If so, I'll take you there. If not, you can stay here for one night. I'll take you there tomorrow morning."

Boss Zhang thought that Zhang Xiaohua was working for someone else, and if he went there by himself so late, if he committed some taboo and caused Zhang Xiaohua trouble, he said hurriedly.

"There's nothing urgent, just take a look, take a look."

Butler Zhang looked at Boss Zhang's appearance and thought about the situation of the Zhang family, so he understood.

"Okay, I'll boil some water and make some food."

Before Boss Zhang could speak, his stomach grumbled a few times, and he was a little embarrassed.

"Is there any leftovers, I'll just soak some boiling water and eat."

Butler Zhang waved his hand and left.

The old man kept watching them talking, and asked curiously after Butler Zhang left.

"Why does he call you master, your daughter is living a good life."

When Boss Zhang heard that the uncle had misunderstood, he hurriedly explained.

"My daughter works here. Just now this person is the housekeeper here. He calls everyone the master, not just me."

"How old is your niece?"

"Nine years old."

"Ah, I'm only nine years old!" The uncle became even more curious, "What are you doing here at the age of nine?"

"First I looked at the house here, and then I went to Zhuangzi. What she can do is work."

The uncle nodded.

"That's not bad. You can earn money to support your family at the age of nine. You have raised a good girl."

Boss Zhang was silent and said for a while.

"Master, you think my daughter is fine, but my mother still asks me to sell her."

"Ah? Selling children? Do you live near here? This year is a good year. I haven't heard that there are children selling here? What's the matter, has something happened at home?"

Boss Zhang was really aggrieved and panicked, so he told what happened today.

The uncle sighed after hearing this.

"Hey, it's really hard for an upright official to break up housework."

Boss Zhang couldn't help but said.

"Don't you think my mother is wrong?"

Grandpa smiled.

"Don't be angry, this old boy's grandson, the lifeblood of grandparents, the old man, always loves the youngest son, there is no way, it's all like this. Your brother owes so much money, especially the high interest rate, and the profit roll Li, it can drag down a family, don't blame the old man for being anxious."

"Then you can't sell my daughter!"

"She was in a panic. Don't blame her for coming up with such a method. In fact, if you were like this, your mother would also find a way to help you, old man. Whenever you encounter a big problem, you panic. If you want to help, it won't help. It’s okay if you don’t ask him to help, it’s all like this!”

Boss Zhang was a little annoyed when he heard this, but after thinking about it, this old man was kind, and he was trying to explain him everywhere.

"My child, you are still young, and you will know when you are old. This old man hopes that all his children will be well, and if one is not good, he will be anxious. He can't wait to ask other children to help. He doesn't want other children to be willing. Yes, I just think it should be, and I will know what's going on when I get old."

"Then I should sell my daughter?"

The uncle snorted.

"You kid, why don't you turn your head around. Your parents are old and panicked, so they can only come up with this way. You are not old and can't think of other ways. How can you listen to them?"

Boss Zhang's heart immediately improved.

"Master, what do you think I should do?"

Grandpa smiled.

"You ask me an outsider, what do you want me to say?"

Boss Zhang was also a little embarrassed and scratched his head.

"I'm also confused."

"This matter, tell your parents when you go back, tell them not to worry, you will find a way to help your brother solve it."

"But what can I do?" Boss Zhang sighed.

The uncle also knew that what he said was useless. If there was a way, Boss Zhang would not run out to take his car.

"There will always be a way. Can a living person be suffocated to death? Don't worry." The old man said a polite word.

Just as he was talking, Steward Zhang came in with two large bowls of noodles and a few plates of pickles.

"Come on, eat something to warm your body."

Boss Zhang and Uncle Zhang swallowed their saliva at the same time when they saw Bai Shengsheng's noodles.

Butler Zhang put down the food and went to make another pot of tea.

"Eat slowly, I'll get you quilts, and you can sleep after eating." After finishing speaking, he left.

The two picked up their chopsticks at the same time, and started to eat.

After cleaning up a large bowl of noodles and a few small dishes, I drank a few more bowls of tea, finally feeling real in my stomach and warm in my body.

"Hey, this is the best meal my old man has ever eaten. I'm glad I took you in the car."
