MTL - My Parents Are Omnipotent-Chapter 19 saved someone

  Chapter 19 Saved a Person

  Ye Jinkui and Ye Anlan each drove a car, carrying Li Shi and others out of the village together.

  They were wearing newly made thick cotton-padded clothes, and there were two old quilts that were discarded in the car. When someone asked, Ye Anlan told them openly that their family planned to go to the county to spend money.

  After the news spread, the villagers who were planning to borrow money from the Ye family for various reasons were dumbfounded, and Qian Shi, who wanted to "unintentionally" spread some news to the refugees and let them come to rob the Ye family, was also dumbfounded.

She yelled at Liu Zhihong behind her back in the house, scolding Ye Anlan that dog meat could not be served at the banquet, that the kennel could not hold dry food, and that the country girl had never seen money. But no matter how much she scolded, her plan to kill someone with a knife was completely ruined .

  Out of the village, after Ye Anlan and the others walked along the official road for about two quarters of an hour, Ye Song suddenly pointed to the loess road in front of the car and said to Ye Anlan: "Sister, do you think there is someone lying there?"

  Ye Anlan had actually seen it a long time ago. She stopped the donkey cart and said to Ye Song and the others: "I'll go and have a look. You just stay here."

  Seeing Ye Jinkui, he hurriedly stopped the bullock cart in which he was alone.

   "It's a living person." Before Ye Jinkui came to help, Ye Anlan had already grabbed the other party's collar and dragged the boy to the side of the bullock cart, "I fainted from cold and hunger, it's not a serious problem."

  Ye Jinkui touched it with his hand, and found that the boy was about to freeze to death. He couldn't help but have black lines on his face: Is this "not a big problem"?

  He carried the cold strange boy into the bullock cart, while Li Shi took the old quilt, water bag and dry food, asked Ye Jinkui to wrap the boy in a quilt, and then fed the boy some warm water.

  The water was boiled by Li before going out, and it was only about 30 degrees at this time. Ye Jinkui fed the boy about half of the warm water, and the boy finally opened his eyes slowly.

  Seeing the circle of heads surrounding him, the boy blinked twice with a confused face.

  Li Shi smiled and handed him two pancakes, "Are you hungry? Come, eat something first."

  The boy looked surprised, "Hey? Can I eat?"

   "Of course." Mrs. Li passed the pancake forward again, "Eat it, eat slowly, if there is not enough, Auntie will get it for you."

  The young man smiled brightly, "Thank you, auntie!"

  He stretched out his hand, grabbed two multigrain pancakes, took one bite from the left and the other from the right, and subconsciously squinted his eyes while eating.

   Seeing his innocent smile, Mrs. Li felt a little more loving in her heart, "Which village are you from? How old are you this year?"

  The boy swallowed the pancake in his mouth, "I'm from Xiaolin Village, and I'm eleven this year."

  Mr. Li was surprised, this kid looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, but it turned out that he was only eleven?

  She asked the boy, "Then why did you fall by the side of the road alone? Did your father and mother know that you ran out of the village?"

  The boy said: "My father and mother are dead. I was too hungry. I wanted to find something to eat, but I passed out while walking."

   Li could not help but feel more sympathy for him, "Then your grandparents and uncles don't care about you?"

   "I don't have an uncle, my grandma used to live with my uncle, and my uncle wouldn't let me go to her house for dinner."

  Although his grandparents would sneak some food for him occasionally, the little things they gave, to be honest, were not enough for this young man's teeth.

   Mrs. Li couldn't help frowning slightly when she heard the words, she asked the young man, "Didn't your parents leave you food, fields or money?"

  The young man scratched his head, "My family has no land. As for the grain and money, my uncle said they were all used for my parents' funeral."

  Ms. Li secretly scolded the young man's uncle and aunt for nothing, "Then where are you going to find food? Do you have relatives in other villages? It's so cold today, auntie asks your uncle to send you there directly."

  The young man shook his head, "I won't go to my relative's house. My two uncles told me not to go to their house to eat and drink. I plan to go to the county town to find some work."

   Upon hearing this, Mrs. Li felt sorry for the boy even more, and she gave the boy two more pancakes, "You are so young, can someone ask you for a job?"

  The boy smirked, "I don't know either."

  He actually has no idea, but the problem is that he has no other choice.

  Both parents died, the family had no food left, and other relatives could not count on him. Apart from going to the county town to find work like some people in the village, he couldn't think of any other way for him to eat.

  He didn't notice that Ye Anlan, who was quietly listening to his conversation with Li Shi, looked at him with something meaningful in his eyes.

   After a while, the two cars drove forward again slowly. A young man named "Zheng Fengshou" wrapped in an old quilt was asked by Mrs. Li to sit honestly in the bullock cart driven by Ye Jinkui.

  Feeling full of food and drink and having a quilt to keep out the cold, Zheng Fengshou was so happy, he kept laughing and chatting with Ye Jinkui all the way. Ye Jinkui was agitated by his chatter, but Ye Song and his friends were amused by Zheng Fengshou's weird brain circuits and erratic chat content, and they couldn't stop giggling.

  Ye Anlan, who was driving the donkey cart, narrowed her eyes. She would bet that if this foolish boy went to the county town, there would be no bones left in him.

  ***

   After paying the entrance fee and undergoing an inspection, Ye Anlan and his party entered the county seat smoothly.

The few little ones who entered the city for the first time fully interpreted what it means to be a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. Three pairs of big eyes rolled back and forth, looking almost greedily at this little town that was very backward and poor in Ye Anlan's eyes. city.

  The one who was more exaggerated than them was Zheng Fengshou who claimed to come to the county to find a job. His exclamation, admiration, and looking around as if no one else was there attracted a lot of strange looks and gossip for their group.

  Ye Anlan had a thick skin, and was indifferent to being despised, but Ye Jinkui and the others lowered their heads subconsciously, for fear of meeting their eyes with those local residents.

"Raise your head. Look openly at whatever you want to see, and sigh whatever you want to sigh." Ye Anlan looked at the few little bean dings in her family, and said softly but firmly, "You didn't do anything wrong. See When seeing something that has never been seen before, everyone will look at it a few more times and exclaim a few times, this is human nature."

  The Ye family looked at each other, but the "culprit" Zheng Fengshou immediately nodded vigorously, "That's right."

  Ye Anlan suppressed a smile and glanced at him, "Didn't you say you're looking for a job?"

   Zheng Fengshou slapped his forehead, "Yes."

  Ye Anlan almost forgot if he didn't say anything, and was just watching the fun.

  He said goodbye to the Ye family with a smile, "Uncle, Auntie, then I will go first. Thank you for saving me. When I earn money, I will buy you roast chicken."

Mrs. Li was worried about letting him, a child in his early ten years, wander around the county. She grabbed Zheng Fengshou, "Don't rush away. We just entered the city, and the people who live here are basically ordinary people. No one has that Hire people to work with spare money. If you want to find work, then you have to go to a more lively place."

  Ye Jinkui also said: "It happens that our family is also going shopping. Instead of wandering around by yourself, you might as well go to those shops with us first and ask them if they are hiring."

   Zheng Fengshou was right after thinking about it, so he smiled again and got on the bullock cart.
