Don't talk nonsense, this is the Emperor's Banner

Chapter 213 Tang Tang's Father
"What are you doing sitting here?"

Xiao Yong walked over and started talking and gesturing, but Tang Tang just grinned and had no idea what he was saying.

Xiaoyong couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.

He said dejectedly: "The doctor said that you were born deaf and it is difficult to cure. If it can't be cured, you will never learn to speak, Tang Tang..."

Xiaoyong is a relatively kind-hearted child, and the more he spoke, the sadder he became.

He thought that Tang Tang was so obedient and well-behaved. It would be great if she could hear sounds and learn to speak.

At this moment, Tang Tang seemed to understand something.

Suddenly she pouted and blew air.

Xiaoyong was amused by her cute appearance and became happy again.

He also exhaled twice, and then asked, "Tang Tang, what are you doing? What does this mean?"

Tang Tang naturally didn't answer him. She just smiled at him and touched her ears.

"Do you want me to blow it for you?" Xiaoyong asked.

For these children, the greatest comfort they received when they were injured was to blow on the wound with their mouths twice, and the pain would go away and the wound would heal quickly...

So Xiaoyong leaned close to Tang Tang's ear and whispered twice.

Tang Tang was so itchy that she shrank her neck and laughed non-stop.

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard suddenly made a sound and was opened from the outside.

Even though Tang Tang couldn't hear the sound, she saw the movement, so she immediately stood up and ran over.

Seeing this, Xiaoyong hurriedly followed.

"Tang Tang, don't run around, or you might get kidnapped and sold..."

At this time, he also saw clearly the person who opened the gate.

"Grandpa Xu, you're back."

The Grandpa Xu that Xiaoyong mentioned is Grandma Zhang’s eldest son.

Grandma Zhang is old, and most of the work in the Rainbow House is done by her eldest son and daughter-in-law.

Grandpa Xu’s name is Xu Liangyou. He is a very kind old man. Before he retired, he often came to the Rainbow House to help out. After retirement, he regarded this place as his job. Although he did not officially take over his mother’s job, it was almost the same idea.

He and his wife get up early every day. One is responsible for preparing breakfast for the children and cleaning the house, while the other is responsible for buying groceries.

He had to go to a faraway suburban vegetable market to buy vegetables, because the vegetables there were cheaper, and even if he rode an electric tricycle, it would take quite a while.

"It's Xiaoyong and Tang Tang. Xiaoyong, you must keep an eye on Tang Tang and be careful not to let her run around..." Xu Liangyou reminded kindly.

Tang Tang is deaf and dumb, and it would be very troublesome if she got lost.

"I know, Grandpa Xu." Xiaoyong reached out and grabbed Tang Tang.

Tang Tang laughed twice at Xu Liangyou and looked out the door. Although she was still laughing, both Xiaoyong and Xu Liangyou could feel Tang Tang's disappointment.

"Tang Tang, are you waiting for someone?" Xu Liangyou asked in surprise.

"Is it the sister who took care of you that day?" Xu Liangyou guessed.

A few days ago, several young volunteers came and brought a lot of things for the children, so Xu Liangyou said this.

But Tang Tang couldn't hear her, so she naturally didn't answer her.

Xu Liangyou patted his head with some amusement, reached into his bike pocket and took out a big tomato, then stuffed it into Tang Tang's arms, then reached out and carried her to the side and put her down.

"Stand here and don't move. Be careful or a car will hit you."

Then he told Xiaoyong to keep an eye on Tang Tang, and then he turned around and rode the tricycle into the yard.

Xiaoyong looked down at the red tomato in Tang Tang's hand. Actually, he wanted to eat it too, but he was embarrassed to snatch his sister's things, so he looked away.

This was Tang Tang's privilege. People always liked to give her food. As for the reason, it was probably because she was young, cute, or always smiling...

Then he seemed to remember something, stretched out his hand to turn Tang Tang's little head around, looking at him, and then said with gestures: "You are waiting for the brother from yesterday, right?"

"han~han~han~"

"You little fool, you don't know anything and just smile foolishly~" Xiaoyong muttered in dissatisfaction.

At this moment, Tang Tang reached into the pocket of her shorts, took out a candy, and put it into Xiaoyong's hand.

Xiaoyong grinned happily, without any hesitation, he peeled off the candy wrapper and put it into his mouth.

"Thank you Tang Tang, come on, I'll help you wash the tomatoes..."

Xiao Yong took Tang Tang to the tap in the yard and helped her wash the tomatoes. "You have to wash them clean before you eat them, otherwise your stomach will... um..."

Xiaoyong turned around and found that Tang Tang had disappeared again.

Looking towards the door again, I saw Tang Tang sitting back on the stool, with her hands cupped and her short legs curled up, looking out the gate like a little frog.

Xiaoyong felt more and more that his guess was correct. Tang Tangguo was definitely waiting for someone.

It must be the brother from yesterday. Tang Tang must like him very much, otherwise why would she, who is always so well-behaved, suddenly run over and hug him?
"Wait, is he Tang Tang's father?"

Xiaoyong immediately started to imagine it. The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed. He became excited, but then he became angry.

Tang Tang smiled at everyone else, except for the man from yesterday. She hugged his legs tightly and didn't think much of it at the time...

At this time, Xiaoyong seemed to have determined that the other party was Tang Tang's father, and he no longer even called him brother in his heart. After all, he was the bad guy who abandoned Tang Tang.

Because Tang Tang couldn't speak, no one knew he was Tang Tang's father, and the other party even pretended to be stupid...

Thinking of this, Little Courage walked over with a snort.

He stuffed the washed tomatoes into Tang Tang's hand and said angrily, "Tang Tang, you don't have to wait. Your father won't come."

"hanhanhan..."

"Laugh, laugh, laugh~, you just know how to laugh." Xiaoyong was almost mad at her.

"Do you know what I'm talking about?" Xiaoyong gestured.

But it was obvious that Tang Tang knew nothing other than the basics like eating and sleeping.

"hanhanhan..."

So Tang Tang still just smiled.

Xiaoyong thought about it and turned to look for Grandpa Xu and Grandma Ding.

Xu Liangyou was moving the vegetables he had bought from his cart to the kitchen. With so many mouths to feed, the daily portions were quite large, so his wife Ding Guilan was also helping him.

"Vegetable prices have risen again recently, almost catching up with meat prices..."

Xu Liangyou was a little worried. Rising prices meant increased expenses, but they had a fixed source of funding, and the funds each month were also fixed. Over time, sooner or later they would be unable to make ends meet.

"Let's think of another solution." Ding Guilan didn't have any good ideas either.

While the two were talking, Xiaoyong ran over in a panic.

"Grandpa Xu... Grandpa Xu..."

Xu Liangyou subconsciously glanced in the direction of Tang Tang, and only heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her sitting there obediently.

He asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Why are you so flustered?"

"Tang Tang's dad...the brother from yesterday was Tang Tang's dad..." Xiao Yong said anxiously.

"Slow down, what Tangtang daddy?"

Xiaoyong paused for a moment after hearing this, and then began to explain what happened yesterday.

"That person must be Tang Tang's father." Xiao Yong said confidently.

To increase his credibility, he added: "Aunt Zhu was there at the time and she saw it, too."

Ding Liangyou and his wife looked at each other and saw surprise on each other's faces. Could it be really as Xiaoyong said?

"It's possible that Tang Tang just likes the other person more."

"But why does Tang Tang like you so much when we first met?" Xiao Yong still insisted on his opinion.

"It's no use saying so much. Where can we find it now?" Ding Guilan said.

Xiao Yong sighed when he heard that, like a deflated ball, and turned around to go find Tang Tang.

"Tang Tang is still waiting for him to come. If he doesn't come, Tang Tang will be so sad..."

Just then, they saw Tang Tang suddenly stand up, take short steps, and quickly run towards the gate of the courtyard.

When Xu Liangyou came in just now, the courtyard door was ajar, and Tang Tang slipped out through the crack in the door.

Seeing this, several people hurriedly chased after him.

"Tang Tang~"

Xiao Yong's shout startled everyone in the yard, and seeing how anxious Xu Liangyou and his wife were, they all ran over.
