She followed the direction Tu Er said and found the place where the old man fell before, and asked the people next to her. Fortunately, someone nearby also saw it and pointed the way to Yang Ruoqing: "That's Uncle Ma who lives in Houjie, Wa City. I fell down when I went out to buy groceries, and was sent home by another kind-hearted person. Their home is over there."?
Yang Ruoqing did not immediately go to Uncle Ma's house to find Blacksmith Luo, but returned to Tu Er's side.
"I want all the remaining pork. You can send it to Tianxiang Tower later. Now, go and do something for me immediately..."
The back street leading to Wa City is an alley. The alley is quite old. When Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang came to Wa City to do business in their youth, they often came to the back street area.
The most impressive time was when Luo Fengtang hunted a roe deer, and Yang Ruoqing had just learned to make tofu at that time.
That day, two people came to Wa Market to sell roe deer and tofu. At that time, they were still unable to set up shop and it was the early stage of the business.
Yang Ruoqing remembered that business was good that day. The things the two people brought were sold for 77 to 88 bucks. Before leaving, someone came over and asked Luo Fengtang to sort out the furs and other things that were sold and cut on the spot and send them to a garbage dump in the back street. In the pool, you can't throw away the tile market, the impact will be bad!
Luo Fengtang asked Yang Ruoqing to wait where he was, and he packed up his things and went to the back street to throw them away. ?
I went away and didn't come back for a while. Yang Ruoqing was worried and went to the back street to look for him.
As a result, in the long and dark alley of the back street, he saw four or five boys about the same age as Luo Fengtang, blocking the young Luo Fengtang in the middle.
From their threatening words, Yang Ruoqing heard that these boys were gangsters in this area. When she saw Luo Fengtang selling roe deer meat for a few bucks, she became interested in Luo Fengtang.
They lured Luo Fengtang to the back street for extortion, and one of the boys even showed a dagger.
Luo Fengtang must have refused to accept being blackmailed by them, because later, after he and Yang Ruoqing were actually together, he told her that with the money he spent from selling roe deer meat that day, he wanted to buy meat for Yang Ruoqing.
How could it be taken away by those people?
So when Yang Ruoqing arrived, she saw Luo Fengtang fighting with the five or six boys. ?
At that time, Luo Fengtang was just a self-taught young hunter. Although he was tall and strong, agile and courageous, he had never received formal martial arts training, let alone been on the battlefield. He was not the great killer later. The God of War of Qi from all directions.
Therefore, when he faced a group of opponents several times his size, and the opponents had daggers, he would be at a disadvantage after a few rounds.
Moreover, there was a very insidious person among those boys. That boy was the one with the dagger. Seeing that he couldn't find a breakthrough point for attack from the front, he went around behind Luo Fengtang and tried to launch a sneak attack.
All this was seen by Yang Ruoqing. How could she allow the little brother she was protecting to be bullied under her nose?
Yes, Yang Ruoqing had just traveled through time at that time. Although she was only twelve years old, her mentality was that of a twenty-six-year-old. Deep down, she really regarded the sixteen-year-old Luo Fengtang as a follower.
So she has to cover her little brother!
So, she showed the knife that Luo Fengtang had given her to keep for chopping roe deer meat, and rushed straight into the alley. ?
The result... As you can imagine, those boys were so frightened that they cried for their parents, hating their parents for not giving them more legs.
Especially the kid who tried to sneak attack Luo Fengtang with a dagger. Everyone else ran away, but he didn't run away.
Yang Ruoqing trampled him under her feet and used the dagger in his hand to shave off half of his head, leaving the other half. Then she made him kneel down and call Luo Fengtang 'Dad' and kowtow five times. Then he was allowed to leave in panic.
…
Walking into this alley again, many memories about the past came to mind like movie scenes.
Twenty years later, this alley is still there, but it is more dilapidated than before.
It can be seen from the broken doors on the wall of this courtyard that most of the people who lived here must have moved elsewhere, leaving only a few families with one or two families still here, hanging clothes from the yard. You can see it. ?
Yang Ruoqing followed the guidance of the people from Wa City and opened a dilapidated courtyard door. When she entered, she found two low small rooms.
Medicine must be boiling in one of the rooms, and the smell of the medicine wafting out is extremely bitter. Just after taking a few sips, the base of the tongue feels astringent, and I can't help but salivate to try to relieve the bitter taste.
In another room, the sound of voices just happened to be heard, and then, a stooped old man was seen escorting Blacksmith Luo out.
Blacksmith Luo walked with his hands empty and turned around to tell the old man. The old man nodded repeatedly, with tears in his eyes and a face full of emotion.
The pine bark-like hands tightly grasped Blacksmith Luo's hand, and he kept saying: "Grateful, grateful!"
The moment Yang Ruoqing looked at Blacksmith Luo, she felt relieved.
"Uncle!" she shouted and stepped forward quickly. ?
Blacksmith Luo turned around and saw that she had come over. He was a little surprised and ashamed at the same time.
"I'm sorry, Qing'er, something happened temporarily, so I was delayed again. So what, are the children waiting impatiently? I'll leave now..."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "I heard from people in Wa City earlier that my uncle kindly helped an old man who fell down to go home. I must be the one in front of me, right?"
Yang Ruoqing's eyes continued to scan the old man's body.
Blacksmith Luo said: "Yes, this is Uncle Ma, and this is his home."
Then, Blacksmith Luo said to the old man next to him: "Brother Ma, this is my nephew and daughter-in-law. We made an appointment to go visit relatives together today. I will take you back halfway. It was delayed. The child is worried about coming here." …”
Old Man Ma struggled to move his body, which was shaky like a candle in the wind, and bent down towards Yang Ruoqing, saying words of gratitude: "Your uncle is a good man, old man, he took me back when I fell on the road. Yes, you saved my life, and you also brought me pork and ribs, a good man..."?
Yang Ruoqing understood why her uncle came out of the house with empty hands. All the meat he bought for the Zhou family was given to the old man in front of him.
"Well, okay, Uncle Ma, how are you doing right now?" Since the uncle did good deeds and introduced herself to Old Man Ma, Yang Ruoqing definitely couldn't offend the uncle, so Yang Ruoqing also said hello to Old Man Ma.
Old Man Ma nodded repeatedly, indicating that he was fine, but he sighed, and the sad look on his face was like a dark cloud, covering the sky, making people feel that this old man was in a very bad state at first glance.
But so what? This is not an elder in his own family. Yang Ruoqing can't take care of that much and doesn't have the energy to take care of it.
