Chapter 22 Picked up a son
In less than a cup of tea, everyone was gone. If there wasn't blood on the ground to prove that a robber had just come, Xu Huaiyi's calm attitude would make others think that nothing happened.
He wiped the machete clean and was about to leave, when suddenly a... child walked out from the nearby woods. He looked about four or five years old. He was wearing a linen shirt and trousers, and his face was rosy. It looks like the beautiful doll in the New Year pictures.
But what surprised Xu Huaiyi the most was that the child was dressed shabbily, like a member of the lower class, but he had an aura about him that no one could ignore.
The phrase "Don't bully young people into poverty" flashed through his mind.
He was almost certain that this child would not be a mere creature in the pond, and would be very promising when he grew up.
The child walked up to him carrying a bundle and looked at him intently with his face raised.
Those eyes were clear in black and white.
Hey, with this aura, Xu Huaiyi couldn't hold it back and asked proactively, "Are you okay?"
He asked casually, but he was secretly alert again. Since he had a dream of traveling to the end of the world to do justice, he had read many books on this subject, and he concluded that women and children must not be underestimated, otherwise they will be easily eaten. Big loss.
If he guessed correctly, this kid had been hiding in the woods watching just now, and he didn't know what his intention was.
Could it be that he would jump out to pick up the slack after they both suffered losses?
Moreover, his expression when he came out was too calm, not like a four or five-year-old child at all.
The boy pursed his lips, and the emotion in his eyes finally became richer, as if he was extremely reluctant but helpless, or there was still a hint of desperate courage, "Do you want a son?"
"What?" Xu Huaiyi was stunned.
Sure enough, he is not an ordinary person. When he opens his mouth, it is earth-shattering.
The boy seemed a little dissatisfied with the fuss he made, frowned and repeated, "Do you want a son?"
Xu Huaiyi asked tentatively, "You, are you recommending yourself?"
The boy nodded "Yeah".
The corner of Xu Huaiyi's mouth twitched. Is there anyone who recommended himself as a son?
Or, is this a new type of fraud?
He shook his head and refused, "I have a child."
Unexpectedly, the boy said, "There is no such thing as too few sons. The more the better." After that, he added, "Besides, I am smarter than the average person."
The implication is that even if you have a son, you are not as powerful as me.
Xu Huaiyi smiled, folded his arms and looked at him, "Boy, don't beat around the bush, you saw it in the woods just now. I'm not someone to be trifled with. If you have any problem, just tell me. If I can help, I will." You don’t mind helping me, but if you can’t, I’m sorry, you can find someone else, and we can walk half way on the road to the sky.”
"I have nothing else to ask for your help, I just want to be your son."
Xu Huaiyi said "ha" with a half-smile, and a look on his face that said, "You can believe it or not."
Seeing this, the boy pondered for a moment, and when he spoke again, he told the details, "Before my parents died, they entrusted me to a family. That family took my parents' money, but they beat me up." He scolded me and even wanted to sell me to that dirty place. If I stayed in that home, I would die sooner or later, so I wanted to find a way to survive for myself."
After hearing this, Xu Huaiyi felt quite complicated and asked dubiously, "So, you escaped?"
The kid nodded, "That's right."
Xu Huaiyi frowned, this was going to be difficult. The details the boy had just told himself were not without loopholes, but somehow, he didn't feel disgusted. Even at this moment, even the vigilance in his heart had dissipated.
One big and one small, both of them were silent.
After a while, Xu Huaiyi said with a serious face, "I sympathize with your situation, but I really can't help you. I can't just take you away like this, right? If your current adoptive parents knew about it, If you have to accuse me of kidnapping a child, I don’t want to get into this kind of trouble. Besides, I really don’t lack a son..."
The boy didn't panic when he heard this, and said in a firm tone, "Don't worry, they don't dare and don't have the energy to come to me, so you won't be in trouble."
Xu Huaiyi asked curiously, "Why don't they dare and don't have the energy to come to you?"
The boy said calmly, "Because they got into a lawsuit and are busy saving themselves. Their biological children can't even take care of themselves. How can they remember me again? They really wish I was lost, so they took over my parents' inheritance openly. The money I spent was used to clear the relationship between my family members and get rid of the crime..."
He spoke clearly and logically, and Xu Huaiyi was secretly speechless. He didn't know whether it was because he was too smart, or because children in ancient times were precocious. Look, his ability to cope is almost as good as that of an adult. In his previous life, a child of this age could still What can you learn from eating and playing silly things in kindergarten? People can already save themselves in times of crisis.
This is much cooler than running away from home.
Xu Huaiyi sighed for a moment and asked, "What if I just don't help?"
The boy said without thinking, "Then I will go to the county government office and say that you have hurt someone."
Xu Huaiyi laughed angrily, "Okay, boy, can you threaten people? You're too soft, give me something hard. What a pity, I won't accept this!"
The boy pursed his lips and said, "I will definitely repay you in the future. You will never lose money by adopting me."
Xu Huaiyi snorted, "It's not a surprise. Get out of the way. Don't block the way. You can go find someone else."
After saying that, he drove the mule cart and left without hesitation.
The boy didn't move, just watching him gradually walk away, with a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes containing complex emotions that were difficult to see through.
Xu Huaiyi walked far away and looked back. The boy was still standing there, like an abandoned puppy, pitiful and stubborn.
It's quite heartbreaking.
As soon as this emotion came over, Xu Huaiyi quickly slapped his face and said to himself, "Don't be too kind. Now is definitely not the time to be soft-hearted. What conditions do you have to dare to pick up children from home?"
Another voice came out, "But the child is so young and has no father or mother. How pitiful it is to live in this world if you just let it go? Have you forgotten what you do? Police, if you have anything to do with the people, call the police." , there’s nothing wrong with it.”
Then, he pinched himself again and said, "No, absolutely not. If you dare to pick it back up, my wife will definitely scold you like a bitch."
The two voices switched back and forth, torturing him more and more uneasily and restlessly. Finally, he cursed and drove the mule cart and turned back.
When he came closer, a light seemed to flash in the child's eyes.
Xu Huaiyi was very irritated, "Why are you still standing there, getting in the car?"
The boy quickly climbed up and said solemnly, "Thank you!"
Xu Huaiyi snorted, threw him a bun, and asked, "What's your name?"
The boy lowered his head to gnaw on the bun and said vaguely, "From now on, I will be your son. You can pick one for me. Let's forget about the past."
