Xiaofeng and I carried the old man in and gave him a simple bandage. We were not very familiar with this place when we first came here, and we still don¡¯t know where the hospital is. After a while, the old man woke up.
After waking up, the old man looked at Xiaofeng and me in fear, but it took him a while to realize that I didn't seem to be hostile to him.
Xiaofeng and I seem to want to communicate with him, but my English is not good. I poked Xiaofeng and asked Xiaofeng to communicate with him in English so that I could ask him where he came from and what happened.
Xiaofeng hesitated there for a long time without saying a word, and it seemed that he could only be in a hurry here. I suddenly remembered that I could speak dumb words, so I started gesturing.
At this time the old man spoke, thank you young man for saving me.
Xiaofeng and I were stunned. The old man in M ??could speak Chinese, so why didn't he speak it that morning.
I said angrily: "Old man, you can speak Chinese. You see, this makes us anxious. I really didn't expect to meet Chinese people here. It's really a pleasure."
Xiaofeng saw me talking nonsense here, interrupted me and said: Old man, what's wrong with you, have you been robbed?
The old man looked at us and didn't speak, what a strange old man.
Tears welled up on the old man's face, and it was a good thing we didn't ask. This question made tears flow even more.
After he cried enough, he looked at us and said unconsciously, maybe I was too excited.
I was really convinced by the old man in front of me, I was so excited before I even spoke.
The old man told me and Xiaofeng about his experience. It turned out that the old man came to New Zealand 30 years ago. When he first came here, he felt that everything was new like me, but the old man was willing to endure hardships. With his efforts, he gradually improved. I also have money, and after a few years of getting a green card, I took over my wife and children. I wanted to settle here and live a good life, but I didn't expect that in the past few years, the old man's son started gambling and spent almost all of his family savings. Moreover, he still owed a huge amount of gambling debts. The old couple were very angry when they found out that the wife was so angry with his son. He was seriously ill and died not long after. The old man took the only savings in his hand and prepared to return home, so he left overnight, but After his son found out about this, this scene happened in the end, the old man was injured, and he robbed the money and left.
The old man became more and more excited as he talked, and began to cry there again.
After hearing this, Xiaofeng was very angry, as if it was a matter of her own family, and said to the old man, you can live here from now on, there is an orchard behind us and no one is managing it, if you don¡¯t like it, you can live here, the old man heard this I was so excited that I cried endlessly and had to kneel down for Xiaofeng and me.
Xiaofeng and I hurriedly helped him up, at this moment I asked: What is your name, old man, and how should we call you.
Oh I forgot about that, everyone calls me outside, Harry.
I have spent my whole life, so what is your Chinese name?
Old Harry seemed to be trying to remember something, and after waiting for a long time, he said: "The Chinese name has not been used for a long time, and you can call me Lao Chen or Harry in the future."
I heard him say this, and I really admire him. I have only been out for more than 30 years and have not forgotten my ancestors. I really admire him.
It was also busy for most of the night. Seeing that it was about to dawn, I told old Harry to go to bed early, and Xiaofeng and I went back to our room.
Back in the room, I told Xiaofeng, would it be bad for us to rashly take in a stranger when we first came here?
After hearing this, Xiaofeng was very angry and said: Why do you have no sympathy at all? Everyone is like that and you are still suspicious of him.
It gives me the feeling that this old Harry is not so simple. I feel that there must be a big secret behind him, but I don¡¯t know it yet, and I¡¯m not talking about it. Fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was already noon the next day. When I woke up, Xiaofeng was no longer there. It seemed that she woke up earlier than me. When I got downstairs, she and old Harry were chatting vigorously. I saw I walked over and the two stopped. Xiaofeng ran to me and said happily that Uncle Harry said that he will help us take care of the manor in the future. Now we don¡¯t have to hire people. How about you? Xiaofeng is acting like a baby He looked at me as if waiting for my answer.
I glanced at old Harry, didn't say anything, just smiled helplessly.
Old Harry stood up and said to me, thank you for taking me in. I'm here to help you look at the orchard.
It seemed that he had no intention of leaving.
Since this is the case, I can't say anything, I just said that since Uncle Harry is willing to stay, my wife and I are very welcome.
Old Harry just smiled and said nothing.
Seems like he deserves to live here.
&nbs.
Xiaofeng smiled and said: Uncle Harry, if you like it, I will do it every day.
Old Harry was jaw-dropping with delight.
I said to old Harry at the table: Uncle Harry, let¡¯s go shopping tomorrow. The orchard behind should also be cleaned up. I want to buy some sheep. Can you take a look?
The idea of ??buying sheep also came to me suddenly. I really don't know why I bought it.
Old Harry said: Okay, I saw that there is still an open space next to us where we can grow some vegetables, Xiaofeng yelled from the side, I will also participate tomorrow.
In the evening, when I returned to the room, I lay on the bed early, and Xiaofeng also came in after taking a shower.
When I saw her coming in, I quickly closed my eyes and didn't look at her.
Xiaofeng seemed to have noticed something, sat next to me and said, "Husband, what's wrong with you, are you still angry with me for what happened today?"
Hearing Xiaofeng say this: My heart softened a bit, but thinking of the tone she spoke to me in the afternoon, I became angry and turned around without looking at her.
Xiaofeng also saw that I was really angry, and quickly said courteously from the side: My husband, I was wrong.
I turned around and said to Xiaofeng: This is a matter of principle. You and I are not familiar with the place where you and I just came, so you take in someone you don¡¯t know. Do you think I should be suspicious?
Xiaofeng was not talking, I knew she was looking for reasons to refute me, but I didn't give her a chance, and continued, don't think that everything in China is done according to your temper, it's because you have to be more active abroad The brain is so big that it still looks like a child.
After hearing this, Xiaofeng nodded and said to me: My husband, I will listen to you in everything from now on, okay?
I really have nothing to do with her, so I told her to turn off the lights and go to sleep.
I got up very early in the morning. Today I want to buy sheep with old Harry and I need some vegetable seeds. Xiaofeng also got up and insisted on going with us. The last time Uncle Mei left us a car when he left. , this time it will come in handy.
The three of us drove to the farmer's market, thinking that none of us could speak the local language or even speak English well, and with old Harry he could communicate with these people.
When we got to the place, we got out of the car and began to select sheep. The salesmen were very enthusiastic when they saw us, especially the old Harry, and they had a sense of worship, which made me doubt the identity of the old Harry.
A salesman came over with a newspaper about stocks in his hand and walked in front of Old Harry. Old Harry started talking to him in his native language and was still pointing and talking on the newspaper. What.
I walked over to have a look and said to old Harry: Uncle Harry, what are you talking about, it seems to be stocks.
Seeing me coming, old Harry quickly hid the newspaper and said nothing, nothing, let's go buy sheep, and then dragged me away.
I had already doubted his identity, but now I became even more suspicious. After buying a few breeding sheep, Xiaofeng went to nowhere. Harry walked over.
Xiaofeng saw me walking over and said to me: Husband, this dog is very cute, let's buy one too.
Before I could speak, old Harry said, this dog is not good, you want to buy it, buy this one, pointing to a shepherd dog, Xiaofeng, who seems to like listening to old Harry¡¯s decision, so he bought this shepherd dog.
After we got all this writing back, old Harry and I started to make a pen for the sheep, shut the sheep in it, and then made a nest for the dog. It was really tiring after a busy day, and I hadn¡¯t done farm work for a long time. s reason.
We chatted after dinner in the evening, and I tried to ask old Harry, Uncle Harry, do you have a good research on stocks.
Old Harry said with an unnatural face when he heard me ask this question: No! I just bought some before, but now I am too old to touch that thing, oops! I am very tired today, I have to rest early, and I will be farming tomorrow, and then I will go back to my house.
It seems that he has many things to hide from me.
The next morning, old Harry and I went to the wasteland to start planting vegetables. I turned over the land first. Although I hadn¡¯t done farm work for several years, it was okay. I wasn¡¯t as tired as yesterday. I felt, Old Harry said noticeably less today than he had yesterday.
By noon, the ground was almost turned over, and the seeds were sprinkled, and then he asked old Harry what was wrong today, Xiaofeng didn¡¯t come to deliver food so late, and old Harry also said: Yes, I¡¯m really hungry up.
At this time, I heard Xiaofeng screaming in the room. Old Harry and I glanced at each other and ran into the room quickly. When we entered the room, we saw Xiaofeng sitting on the ground. I helped her up and said, "What are you doing?" up.
Xiaofeng said in fear: Blood! Blood! Then hugged me and cried.
Blood! How can there be blood? I asked Xiaofeng, at this time old Harry also walked in, seeing Xiaofeng's frightened look, he asked: What's the matter.
Xiaofeng said again at this time: What flows from the faucet is not water but blood.
It was only then that I noticed that the water flowing from the faucet was not water but red water, just like blood. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)?Come and tell me what's wrong with you.
Xiaofeng said in fear: Blood! Blood! Then hugged me and cried.
