At the intersection, Koide was standing next to the scooter wearing headphones and waiting. She came early.
Suddenly, she saw a figure walking over in the distance carrying two buckets of water - it was not Yu Yang Dong. Koide took off his headphones and ran over.
This alley is basically a large courtyard with a lot of people. At the door, there are uncles and aunties chatting, sisters-in-law nursing children, and children running around. Xiao Chun called him and chased him from a distance, mainly because she also wanted to see what he was doing. Could it be that he lived here?
As I was walking, I heard someone on the side of the road saying that the water pressure was low today, and that the water coming out of the faucet was extremely small early in the morning. Then watch him walk to the door of a courtyard, put a bucket of water at the door, and go in carrying a bucket. Xiaoide stood in the corner under the steps and waited for a while. He came out and continued to carry another bucket of water. Xiaoide followed and passed by the door where he had just delivered water. Inside, an old woman was standing in front of the bucket of water, smiling and murmuring, "Great, that's enough for today..."
Not far away, he carried water and entered another door.
After a while, an old man came out chasing him, "Yuyang, eat steamed buns, I made them myself..."
Yu Yang came out with a smile and said, "I've eaten, Uncle Liu, if you still need water today, give me a call!"
Xiaode watched him go away from the corner opposite the station, without calling him, and turned back to the motorcycle. As he walked, he curled his lips unconsciously. He is such a good boy.
After not waiting long, he came over carrying his canvas bag on his back. Without any nonsense, he took out the ball still wrapped in a dark blue brocade bag from his bag and handed it to her, "I'll take the card," he said.
Koide nodded, put the brocade bag into his bag, raised his eyes and looked at him, "Do you live here?"
"no."
"I saw you just now," Koide was still putting things aside, "You brought water to the two old people." He didn't say anything, so Koide looked at him, and he looked away, as if he didn't want to say anything more. Koide slightly tilted his head to look at him and whispered, "Let's find a place to sit. I have something to say to you."
He never made eye contact with her, so Koide continued, pointing forward, "There is a quiet little teahouse in front."
Then he looked at her and said, "The water pressure in this area is low today, so the teahouse may not be open."
"Then go to my mahjong parlor!" Koide said enthusiastically.
He had already walked forward, "There is a small garden over there." Koide quickly pushed into the car and followed, "Okay."
There were many people in the small garden, but there was always a secluded place. The two of them found a place to sit under a big tree.
He really wanted to say it, but Xiao De didn't know how to speak, so he hugged Bao'er and looked at him,
He smiled, looking good, "You can tell me what you said,"
"I said I wanted you to help me that day, and I meant it sincerely." Xiaode lowered his eyes, feeling at a loss again. "I really can't deal with a group of people like them. It's better to have a companion than to stand alone." …”
"Are you a big guard?" he asked suddenly,
Koide raised his face and shook his head blankly, "No,"
His eyes darkened, and he turned back to look forward, "I thought you were..."
"What's wrong?"
"I'm going to study there soon. If you're in there too, it's okay for us to help each other. If you're not in this circle, it's all in vain."
Koide frowned, "Does it have to be to guard against big students?"
"You know them, don't you know their background? Defense is their root. It radiates out and becomes more and more powerful. How can you make an effective decision if you are not part of it?" He took a deep breath, and his eyes deepened. "You just saw what I did. The grandchildren of these old people are all working as ice. They were also my friends in the past. Some of the things we do are really shameful, but after all, we are not forced to Layer by layer, if you can't afford to offend, you really can't offend, and you can't control your own life." Xiaoide understood that when he said "shameful", he might be referring to his "selling jade nine tripods" or something like that. Even going to an "underground colosseum" like the one before and risking one's life to settle the matter...
He turned to look at her again, "So, let alone helping each other, you and I are not from the same world at all." He stood up and was about to leave.
behind,
Koide also stood up and shouted, "I'm going to defend myself, so you're willing to help me."
He still didn't say anything, didn't look back, and left.
His brows never relaxed and he just stood there. After she became aware of this matter, it was inevitable that Feng Yun and the others would pester her. She needed someone like Yuyang who could negotiate. Besides, she was sure that he was a good boy...
