"Aunt Liu, what happened?" Lin Dongfang asked.
He could tell that Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were indeed in trouble. They had helped him so much. If there was a chance, Lin Dongfang would like to help them as well.
"Dongfang, you're not an outsider, so I'll tell you.”
"Don't you think it's strange that there's only the two of us in this house? Have you thought about where the child went?"
"Yes, I did think about it, but I was too embarrassed to ask.”
"You're a good child. It's okay to tell you. This old thing actually has a son. If he's still alive, he should be about your age.”
"But that child had a hard life. He left when he was ten.”Aunt Liu started crying as she spoke.
Lin Dongfang really didn't expect that this old couple, who looked so happy, had such a sad past. Every family had their own difficulties!
"Did something happen to your son?”
"That's right. That kid quarreled with this old thing. In a fit of anger, the old thing slapped that kid. This kid is also stubborn. He ran out in the middle of the night and didn't return home for a long time.”
"Didn't you and Uncle Liu go out to look for it?"
"At that time, your Uncle Liu was in a fit of anger and refused to let me go out to look for him. He said that he would teach him a lesson and come back after suffering a little outside.”
"And then?"
"After six to eight hours, that kid still hadn't returned. Your Uncle Liu and I were a little scared.”
"I quickly called the neighbors in the courtyard to go out and look for the child. I searched the surroundings of the courtyard house, but I couldn't find him.”
"Until the next day, someone discovered…I found the child drowned in the river..." Aunt Liu was crying her heart out while Uncle Liu was fast asleep on the table.
Lin Dongfang felt very apologetic and did not ask for more details.
Lin Dongfang's eyes were filled with tears. He looked at the old couple in front of him and did not know what to say.
Aunt Liu seemed to have noticed that Lin Dongfang was at a loss. She quickly wiped her tears and said to Lin Dongfang.
"Child, I'm really sorry. I originally invited you to our house for dinner, but I let you hear these unhappy things.”
"You don't have to worry. We've all thought it through. Without children, the two of us can still live happily.”
"Your Uncle Liu is usually fine, but every time he drinks too much, he will think of our son. He will be fine tomorrow when he sobers up.”
What Lin Dongfang did not expect was that instead of comforting Aunt Liu, Aunt Liu comforted him instead. Aunt Liu was so strong and gentle. If their children were still alive, they would definitely live a very happy life.
"Auntie Liu, you guys were probably young back then. Didn't you think about having another child?”Lin Dongfang calmed himself down and asked.
"I've thought about it. Why haven't I thought about it? Perhaps it's retribution from the heavens. No matter how hard we try, we can't get pregnant.”Aunt Liu said.
"It's okay, Auntie Liu. I've moved in now. We live opposite each other. If there's anything in the future, just call me.”
"Thank you, Dongfang."
"Please don't stand on ceremony with me."
Although Lin Dongfang called them uncle and aunt, the old couple were actually not old. They were in their early forties. However, in that era, those in their early forties were considered relatively old, but they still had the ability to give birth.
Lin Dongfang now had the upgrade selection system. He thought that if he encountered any medical skills in the future, he would definitely obtain them and treat Uncle and Aunt Liu. He wanted to see if he could let the old couple have children when they were old. It could be considered as relying on them when they were old…
Lin Dongfang helped Aunt Liu clean up the leftovers after dinner. Then, he took the initiative to help wash the dishes before returning home.
Lin Dongfang laid down on the bed and looked at the ceiling, recalling what had happened today.
The Siheyuan over there were all beasts, forcing them to donate immediately. There was indeed true love in the world. Everyone was sunny and warm. In comparison, these two Siheyuan were really different.
Lin Dongfang felt that moving out of the courtyard house was the right decision.
Lin Dongfang had nothing better to do and used the Repair Skill Upgrade Card. In an instant, a lot of knowledge and skills related to maintenance appeared in his mind.
Lin Dongfang felt that with his current level, he had already reached the level of a mechanical engineer.
A repairman was much more advanced than a fitter. A repairman was at most a technical job, but a repairman was a special job. The reason why so many machines in the rolling mill spat out steel every day was because of the hard work of the repairmen.
What Lin Dongfang needed now was a chance, a chance to perform.
Unknowingly, Lin Dongfang fell asleep in bed.
The next morning, Lin Dongfang woke up and washed up. Every neighbor greeted him warmly when they saw him. Lin Dongfang felt great.
"Dongfang, did you sleep well last night?”
"Dongfang, have you adapted to our new place? If you need anything, just tell me."
"The East!"
Lin Dongfang looked at the smiling faces of his neighbors and couldn't help but smile. Although he had only moved in for a day, he felt as if they were old neighbors.
