Chapter 505

"Mom, let me feed her."

"No, I've already eaten it, so hurry up and eat it, you'll be on your way later."

Sandra held Manna with one arm, and with the other hand, she scooped up the custard and fed it into Manna's mouth.Skillful.

Seeing Beanne looking at her, she said again: "In the future, you will have plenty of time to take care of her. You have a lot to learn to take care of children alone. You can neither starve her nor yourself. I have taken several children's."

"Mom, where are your other children?"

Beanie knew a Mark.

"Mark also has two older brothers and one older sister. The older brothers are busy with business in Los Angeles, and the older sister married far away. Mark was sent to boarding school by me to study since he was a child. I don't want him to go back to Los Angeles. I hope he Leaving this place, it turned out that he learned it, but he still often came back."

"Won't Mark be close to you?"

"It's good, but it depends on where it is. You know, our place is not a good place. I hope Mark can stay away from right and wrong places, find a girl like you to marry and have children, and live a peaceful life. However, things are often not satisfactory, Mark doesn’t listen to me, and he can’t be with the person he likes, alas, this is what the more you want to do, the more you can’t do it, isn’t that what the Chinese say?

Beanie felt a twinge of embarrassment.The topic was about to come to her head.

Quickly changed the subject: "Mom, you seem to be very familiar with Chinese people?"

"Oh, yes. You know? The first job I came to the United States was in Chinatown. The barber shop opened by the Chinese helped take care of their two children. They treated me very well, and I learned a lot there. The first craft—haircutting, Chinese people often say that if you learn a craft, you can support your family and you will not be poor for the rest of your life. Look, it’s still very useful now.”

Beanie stroked her hair,

It really is.

Sandra: "There is a Chinese chef who is a frequent visitor to the barber shop. He taught me how to steam custard. The two children of the owner of the barber shop grew up eating my custard."

Sandra's pride was beyond words.

"Of course, I did a lot of work later and learned a lot. I can't finish talking about it for days and nights. What I remember most is that I have to have a skill."

Beanie thought: You must still shoot, and even kill people.

But she didn't say it.

Those who can stay here are not ordinary people!

Isn't Sandra going to teach herself how to use a gun?

Will he kill himself?

If this situation happened today, for Manna, I would do it, right?

On this day, Beanie saw a lot, encountered things that she had never encountered before, and learned a word: one skill.

When night fell, the pursuers of the robbers returned, triumphant.They seized the car and some horses and weapons, and the remaining few defeated soldiers fled into the depths of the desert, probably not daring to show up in this area for a long time.

Mubak jumped into the car excitedly and drove the car around the tavern house several times.

The open space was full of people, all shouting loudly: Victory, victory.

Mubak later climbed onto the roof of the car and shouted, "Drink as much as you want tonight."

"Yo-ho, yo-ho..."

The crowd cheers.

A bonfire was lit in the open space, and the women danced cheerfully around the bonfire, and the children ran around merrily among the crowd with delicacies that they could not usually eat. Drinking and drinking...everyone is celebrating the victory.

Sandra said to Beanie: "Go, get in the car."

They avoided the joyful crowd and boarded the car again.

Unexpectedly, Tony was already waiting in the car.

Beanni thought that Tony had already been drunk with Mubak, and hid in that corner to sleep soundly.

Tony started the car, walked through the town, and set off quietly.

Taking advantage of the darkness, they must rush to the farm as soon as possible.

After leaving the town, the surrounding area was pitch black, and only car lights could reach a distance not far away.The lights of the town were left behind, appearing unreal.

The car is driving in the desert again.

See Beanie staring ahead with her eyes wide open.

Sandra: "Don't worry, Tony knows the way very well, and he can find it with his eyes closed."

Tony: "Mrs. Xie's compliment."

Then everyone didn't speak.

The car staggered forward, and Beanie began to doze off again with Manna in her arms.

Even Sandra began to close her eyes and meditate, and Beanie knew that this section of the road should be very safe, so she fell asleep with confidence.

"Tara, wake up, we're here."

Beanie opened her eyes only to realize that she was in the car.

I don't know when Manna was already in Sandra's arms.

Why did I sleep so dead?If there are bad guys around...

Oh, it seems that we should be more vigilant in the future.

"Get out of the car." Sandra said as she hugged Manna and got out of the car.

There was already a person standing outside the car, holding a lantern and lighting it.

Tony got out of the car with a flashlight too.

The man with the lantern led the way, and Sandra followed him with Manna in her arms.

"Tara, follow me and be careful where you step."

"Oh... yes, Mom."

Tony handed her the flashlight, and Beanie followed Sandra in a daze, with Tony carrying the luggage and walking last.

Beanie had just passed a fence when Sandra said, "Tara, watch out, we're crossing the bridge."

Beanie walked up. It was a suspension bridge paved with wooden planks, and it was rickety to walk up.Beanie quickly grabbed the ropes on both sides, and by the light of the flashlight, she saw that the ditch was very high, and the water at the bottom of the ditch was not very deep.The bridge is not long, maybe less than five meters, and I walked across it quickly while holding on to the rope.

Beanie admires Sandra, she walks so smoothly with the person in her arms, and she is still talking along the way: "In the future, when I have money, I will build a better bridge, then connect the wires, install street lights, and illuminate it brightly... "

Tony: "Madam's wish will come true step by step."

After getting off the bridge and passing a fence, it felt like entering a yard, and Beanie saw a house.

Sandra said to the person with the lantern in front: "Grandma is already asleep, don't disturb her."

The man went around to another door and opened it, put the lantern on the table and went out.

Beanne didn't hear him say a word along the way, and didn't even see his face clearly, she just felt that he was a man.

Sandra put Manna on the bed: "It's so dark, and I can't see to clean it up. I'll talk about it tomorrow. I'm tired. Let's huddle here tonight..."

Beanie was lying on the bed, next to Manna who was sleeping soundly, and Sandra on the other side was already asleep, snoring lightly.

But she couldn't fall asleep anyway, the experience of the day was tumbling in her mind like a movie.

This is the 90s of the twentieth century, how does it feel like it is half a century behind.Not to mention the robbers blocking the way, even the people in the town of Harrods are like refugees.And is this the so-called farm that Sandra said?

He can't see what it looks like if he is blind, so it's probably not much better?

What kind of place is this? Not to mention the remoteness, but there is no electricity?How do people live here?Suddenly coming from a civilized metropolis to this barren land, what kind of place did I come to, and how did I live here?

Questions kept popping up one after another.

Beanie regretted that she should not follow Mark's arrangement and come to Mexico.No, you can come to Mexico, but it’s not such a barren place. Mexico still has cities, right?

She decided that if this place was as dilapidated as that Harros town, then she would leave tomorrow. Although she took Manna with her, she couldn't stay in such a place?

She still has savings, enough for them to live in a civilized and modern city for a period of time.

After she made up her mind, Bei Anni felt relieved, go to sleep first, and talk about it tomorrow when she wakes up.

　Today, I would like to recommend a friend's book "Once Upon a Time in the City" to book friends to open up the memory of the times and reminisce about the beautiful childhood life

　　Realistic themes, pay more attention

　　Thank you.
