Chapter 980 Leave some time
Sitting on a bench, listening to the voices coming from the side,
Lian Ge turned his gaze a little, glanced at the old man surnamed Chen, didn't say much, just watched quietly again.
"...Thank you, thank you Big Brother, thank you..."
On the other side, the old couple hurriedly followed the line of sight of the old man surnamed Chen, and then looked at the direction pointed by the old man surnamed Chen.
Turning around quickly, thanking the old man surnamed Chen, thanking him non-stop, his eyes became redder.
The old man surnamed Chen looked at the old couple and just shook his head.
"...Thank you, Big Brother, thank you, Big Brother...Big Brother, then we will go to Tongtong first...Thank you...Thank you..."
Grateful again, the old couple thanked them repeatedly and spoke aloud.
The old man surnamed Chen was silent, but nodded.
After thanking each other non-stop, the old couple hurriedly turned around again.
The old man helped the old lady, the old lady held the photo tightly in her hand, and didn't bother to take the bread that was thrown on the ground earlier.
In a hurry, moving their staggering feet, their eyes were red, and their whole bodies were trembling, the old couple walked towards the direction pointed by the old man surnamed Chen, staggering a little on their feet, and walked forward as fast as possible.
The old man surnamed Chen stood where he was, watching the old couple pass the corner at the end of the street, and walk away along the street he and Lian Ge walked through when they came here.
The old man surnamed Chen turned his head back again, remained silent on the spot, paused,
Turning your head again, looking around,
He lowered his body a bit, reached out and picked up the money that was placed on the bench, trembling with the breeze blowing.
Turning around again, looking around, taking the money that the old couple gave earlier, hunched over, silent, moved feet, lowered head, and walked towards Lian Ge's side.
……
"...Sir, here. This is the money they gave."
Walking to the bench where Lian Ge was sitting, the old man surnamed Chen didn't sit down again, but stood with his body bent, and handed the handful of money in his hand to Lian Ge.
"You take it first."
Lian Ge glanced at the old man surnamed Chen, said something aloud, and stood up from the bench again.
The old man surnamed Chen nodded, put down his hands holding the money,
He raised his head again and looked in the direction where the old couple had gone,
"...Sir, they belong to Tongtong..."
The old man opened his mouth, as if he wanted to ask something, but in the middle of speaking, he stopped again.
I don't know if I don't want to say something, or I don't want to continue talking.
"Correct."
Lian Ge responded, turned around, and looked at the street past the end of this street.
"Then why..."
The old man surnamed Chen was silent for a while, and opened his mouth again, as if he wanted to ask something, raised his head, and looked into the distance.
Lian Ge didn't answer, but just looked at the passing street at the end of the street.
The old couple had already walked away, and their figures disappeared from sight.
Although the old man surnamed Chen added a few words earlier, it only pointed out a rough direction for the old couple.
Even after passing through the street pointed by the old man surnamed Chen, there is still a short distance from where the nursing home is.
"How does the old man feel now?"
Looking there, Lian Ge said something calmly.
"... I'm a little happy. I found Tongtong's relatives. In the future, Tongtong... still feels a bit reluctant..."
The old man surnamed Chen also looked there, raised his head, paused, and answered.
"Tongtong is still waiting for you to go back, you have dinner together. There is always some time."
Lian Ge didn't turn his head when he heard the old man's words, but just said something aloud,
"Let's go, it's time to go back."
Lian Ge spoke again, moved his foot away, and walked forward.
"……thanks……"
The old man stood where he was, listening to Lian Ge's words,
After staying silent for a while, murmured, thanked him, moved his feet again, and followed closely.
……
Following the way they came here, Lian Ge and the old man walked quickly towards the nursing home.
Not long after, he passed by the old couple who were walking along the road again, and the old couple didn't realize it.
The old man surnamed Chen turned his eyes for a while, then turned his head back, followed closely beside Lian Ge, walking towards the direction of the nursing home, raised his head, and looked towards the direction of the nursing home.
Along the way, Lian Ge didn't say anything,
The old man surnamed Chen didn't say a word, he just looked in the direction of the nursing home, his eyes were a little lost.
The night above the head is getting darker, and the moon hanging high is swaying some cold moonlight downwards, and it is gradually changing its position.
After walking through the street where the vegetable market is, there are no pedestrians in the streets and alleys.
Under the permeating night, facing the streets and alleys, there are no lights in the dilapidated old shops, and there are no passers-by on the road.
Then I walked through a dark, dilapidated and deserted road.
Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen walked back to the entrance of the alley where the nursing home is located.
In the already dilapidated alley, at this time, from the direction of the end of the alley, some dim lights were reflected outside.
The place where the lights are reflected is where the nursing home is.
On the inner courtyard of the nursing home, through the roof of the inner courtyard, some dim lights swayed outside. The lights dispelled the night around the nursing home and dotted in the night.
After taking a look, Lian Ge moved his foot away again, walked into this alley, and walked towards the end of the alley.
The old man surnamed Chen paused, looking at the place where the lights were shining, his eyes were a little dazed,
After a pause, he followed closely.
……
"...Grandpa Qian, how long will it be before Grandpa Chen and the others come back?"
"...It should be soon. Tongtong is hungry. If Tongtong is hungry, eat first. Grandpa Chen won't blame Tongtong."
"...I'm not hungry, but the food is going to be cold. I'm afraid that Grandpa Chen and the others will come back. If the food is cold, it won't taste good... I'll warm up the food later..."
Passing through the dark place of this not-so-long alley, Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen walked to the nursing home, in front of the gate,
The courtyard door, which was half-hidden, seemed to have been blown open a gap by the wind, and through that gap, some of the lights in the courtyard leaked out to the outside of the courtyard.
Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen stood under the light.
Lian Ge could already hear some voices coming from the yard.
"crunch..."
The old man surnamed Chen paused, stepped forward and pushed open the courtyard door,
More lights in the yard reflected Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen.
"...Sir, please come in."
Pushing open the courtyard door, the old man surnamed Chen said something to Lian Ge, and moved away a little.
"Grandpa Chen..."
In the yard, under the bright lights, the little girl sat around a table with some old people in the yard,
There are fried dishes and a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the table.
Sitting at the table, looking back and forth at the little girl outside the courtyard gate, saw the old man surnamed Chen who pushed open the courtyard gate, stood up from the stool again,
Shouted crisply, and ran towards the gate of the courtyard,
"……Eh,"
The old man surnamed Chen turned around and looked at the little girl running over, with a smile on his face, he answered.
The old people sitting at the table also stood up one after another, looking at the old man surnamed Chen, and also looking at Lian Ge and Lian Ge outside the courtyard gate.
"...Grandpa Chen, it's time to eat."
The little girl ran to the gate of the courtyard, stretched out her hands, and helped the old man surnamed Chen to open the gate a little more, then raised her head and said to the old man surnamed Chen.
"...Eh, good, good..."
The old man surnamed Chen let go of the hand on the door, looked at the little girl again, smiled, and responded with a voice.
"Brother, come in and sit down and eat."
The little girl pulled the courtyard door, and shouted loudly at Lian Ge.
Standing by the courtyard gate, looking at the old people and little girls under the lights in the courtyard gate, Lian Ge smiled slightly and nodded to the little girl.
Chapter 981 A Family in a Nursing Home
"Old Chen is back...Old Chen..."
"...Master, sir..."
Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen walked into the courtyard one after another. By the courtyard door, the little girl stretched out her hands again, pulled the door, and closed the door again.
In the yard, next to the tree beside the yard, the incandescent lamps hanging high sway some dim lights,
Under the light, the old people who had already got up from the stools by the table one after another, walked around the table stools by the courtyard,
He walked towards Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen, greeted them aloud, and couldn't help looking behind Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen, but he didn't see anyone else.
"Grandmaster……"
Waiting for Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen to come closer to a few old people, the door behind the courtyard was almost closed again by the little girl.
He looked at Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen again, and then looked at Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen. Among the several old men, someone opened his mouth and wanted to ask something, but stopped speaking again, only the eyes were full of tears. Looking at Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen with some hope mixed with fear, next to him, several other old people stood with their waists bent, looking at Lian Ge, their eyes were mixed with expectation and fear,
It seems that I want to hear some good news, but I am a little afraid to hear it.
"...Tongtong's relatives..."
Several old people looked at Lian Ge and the old man surnamed Chen. Some opened their mouths, and then they seemed to want to ask something, but they couldn't continue.
"...Tongtong's relatives have been found."
Next to Lian Ge, the old man surnamed Chen looked at the few old people in the yard, paused, and said aloud.
The few old people listened, first some happy smiles appeared on their faces, and then they turned their heads to look at the little girl who was vacantly covering the courtyard door.
The smiles on their faces faded away again, and each of them remained silent again.
"...Tongtong's parents and relatives...why didn't you come with me..."
Among the few old people, someone asked again, but opened his mouth again, but his voice was a little hoarse.
"...It will be a little while before they get here. Sir gave us some time to finish dinner together."
The old man surnamed Chen turned his head, looked at the little girl, and said again.
The old men listened, and then fell silent for a while.
"...Thank you...Thank you Master..."
Several old people continued to thank Lian Ge one after another.
Looking at these old people, Lian Ge just shook his head and didn't say much.
