Chapter 31 Daddy, You Haven't Been So Kind Before
"Why did Father Bao jump? Is there something you can't bear to see recently?"
"There will definitely be something he can't look away from. He can't even see it."
The crowd of onlookers kept making noises, and the theme was that Zhao Heng might not be able to see away and wanted to jump into the river. Zhao Xuan rushed forward like crazy, and when he was about to reach the edge of the river, he suddenly stopped. He seemed to be right now
Only then did he regain his senses and turned back to look at Wang Chunniang and the others.
Wang Chunniang held A Bao tightly in her arms, and Lin Xiang hugged him regardless of Jiang Ting's objection.
"Xuan'er, your father is fine. Come back." Wang Chunniang tried her best to keep her voice from shaking, lest Zhao Xuan would hear it.
Zhao Xuan looked under the collapsed bridge pier. He never saw Zhao Heng's shadow. The water was too big.
After Zhao Heng jumped down, Blacksmith Yang also rushed down like crazy, and there was another shout from the crowd.
When Mrs. Zhang heard the news and rushed over, she saw that her husband and son Dabao were missing.
"Xuan'er, go home and get the rope. Your father must be down there." Wang Chunniang pinched the back of her hand and then shouted loudly at Zhao Xuan.
Zhao Xuan hurriedly ran towards home.
But he hadn't run a few steps when he heard Abao crying from behind. Abao's voice was always loud, and when she cried, she made a loud noise: "Daddy, Daddy, your hand is bleeding."
When Zhao Xuan heard this, he turned around suddenly.
He saw his father, all wet, standing in the same spot where he had been standing just now. He was still holding Yang Dabao, who had fainted, in his right hand, and dragging Blacksmith Yang with his left hand.
"Ms. Dabao!" Mrs. Zhang heard the noise and crawled over to her husband and son.
Zhao Heng put down the father and son, followed the sound and walked towards Abao and the others without saying anything.
"Dad, you are so awesome! You saved both of them!" Abao didn't care that Zhao Heng's clothes were soaked, and he jumped into Zhao Heng's arms.
Zhao Heng hurriedly caught the little fat man, and then walked back with his family.
The group of people standing by the river watching the excitement did not come back to their senses for a long time.
Just now, Zhao Hengfeng jumped down and flew up again. He couldn't tell what his skills were, but... he should be very powerful.
Because Zhao Heng's body was soaked, Wang Chunniang urged him to go home quickly and change clothes.
"Abao, Mom is holding you, your father is all wet." Wang Chunniang opened her hands towards Abao.
Abao refused and hugged Zhao Heng's neck tightly without letting go. Zhao Heng didn't object, so he supported the little guy and walked towards home, following the direction in his memory.
A group of people by the river also sent Yang Blacksmith and Yang Dabao to Dr. Qian's house under Zhang's instructions. When passing by Zhao's house, Zhang took a deep look.
Zhao family,
Zhao Xuan looked at Zhao Heng who had changed his clothes and came out. While handing over the ginger soup, he couldn't help but ask Zhao Heng: "Dad, you...have never been so kind before."
Even before his father became blind, he was not a very enthusiastic person. This time it was really strange.
Zhao Heng didn't even explain, he raised his head and drank the ginger soup.
"I want to drink too." Abao sat on the small bench beside him and looked at Zhao Heng eagerly.
"You guys wait at home. There are people selling fish outside. I'm going out to buy two crucian carp." Wang Chunniang said to the family. The two fish from Yang Dabao's family that she bought on the bridge were thrown out due to an accident.
While Wang Chunniang was talking, Zhao Heng fumbled and reached for another small bowl on the table, and poured a little ginger soup for A Bao.
When Abao saw this, he picked up the small bowl with a groan and started drinking.
"Cough!" Wang Chunniang had just walked into the yard when she heard Abao's violent coughing.
"Zhao Heng, can you be more reliable?" Wang Chunniang shouted.
…………
Although A Bao choked on the ginger soup, he still drank the crucian carp soup stewed by Wang Chunniang at noon.
The rain that had been falling for a long time finally stopped. However, the bridge leading to the outside world in Xiqiao Township was washed away by the water. Xixi Village was originally named after this bridge. Now the bridge has collapsed.
It completely affected the traffic of people in the village.
So in the evening, Jiao Lizheng began to go door to door looking for people to prepare to build the bridge.
When he arrived at Zhao's house, Jiao Li was hesitant.
There is only one grown man in the Zhao family, Zhao Heng. Wang Chunniang is a woman after all. How can she do such heavy work? Zhao Xuan is only nine years old. This... the Zhao family has no way of providing a labor force.
However, he finally knocked on the door. After all, with so many people in the village watching, he couldn't favor anyone.
"Brother Li Zheng, you...are you looking for my brother?" It was Lin Xiang who opened the door. She glanced at Jiao Lizheng, then quickly lowered her head and gave up her seat.
Jiao Li was adjusting his clothes subconsciously, then nodded and said, "Yes, are they at home?"
Lin Xiang nodded, then turned around and entered the side room, never showing up again.
inside the house,
After the Zhao couple heard what Jiao Lizheng said, Wang Chunniang was about to speak, but Zhao Heng spoke first: "I promise."
Everyone in the Zhao family looked at Zhao Heng. Only A Bao was immersed in cooking. She looked up and saw everyone around her looking at her father. She shouted in a loud voice: "Daddy, go, I will lead the way."
"I'll take you for a walk after dinner." Zhao Heng reached out and touched Abao's head.
Abao shook his little head dissatisfied and said strangely: "Daddy never took me out for a walk before. Daddy is very strange today."
Zhao Heng did not answer Abao's question and was still eating quietly.
Jiao Lizheng didn't say anything. Since Zhao Heng had agreed, he left. When he reached the entrance of the courtyard, he looked back again.
After dinner, Zhao Heng actually took A Bao out. When he saw Zhao Heng picking up the stick used to explore the way that had not been used for several days, A Bao tilted his little head and said,
He said with a puzzled face: "Dad, don't you use this stick?"
"It just rained and the road was slippery," Zhao Heng explained.
Abao nodded understandingly.
Zhao Heng took Abao around the village, ranging from the door of Zhao's house to West Street.
Many people greeted Zhao Heng along the way and asked him if he was injured while rescuing people this morning, and Zhao Heng answered them all.
Just as the father and daughter were about to go home, Blacksmith Yang chased them from behind.
"Brother Zhao!" Blacksmith Yang shouted towards Zhao Heng.
Zhao Heng turned around, and Abao grinned at Blacksmith Yang and said, "Uncle Blacksmith."
"Brother Zhao, thank you for saving me and Dabao today. Your eyesight is not good, so you don't need to participate in the bridge repair. I have already told Jiao Lizheng that there are two people in our family. My brother is eighteen this year.
If we don't get married and we have two children, you don't have to go out." Because he was too emotional, Blacksmith Yang said with a trembling voice.
"It's easy, no need for it." Zhao Heng said and took A Bao forward.
Blacksmith Yang knew that Zhao Heng had a bad temper, so he did not follow him all the time. However, Zhao Heng would definitely not be allowed to participate in the bridge repair matter.
When Zhao Heng returned to the yard, Wang Chunniang was already waiting there.
"Abao, you go play with brother Ating first, and I'll talk to your father about something." Wang Chunniang said to the little girl.
Abao nodded and ran away.
