ps: Happy New Year and thank you all for your support over the past year.
"You guys should go to sleep first, I have something else to do." Li Feng felt something was blocking his heart, and he was inexplicably irritable. It was already past nine o'clock, and Li Xiaoman didn't say anything, but just nodded.
Li Feng went downstairs and drove around aimlessly, and unknowingly came to a strange street.
This area is a high-tech zone, but it has been built in the past two years. It can be said that the original towns have been built, and some streets are relatively old. Li Feng did not expect that the car would drive here, and the car parked aside. Li Feng originally wanted to smoke
A cigarette to relieve my mood.
Li Feng took out his cell phone and wondered whether he should call Manying. After thinking about it, he decided to forget it. It was so late. When Li Feng was hesitating, an old garbage truck passed by him with difficulty. The road here was uneven.
It was very laborious to pull the cart through the potholes, and with a cart full of garbage, it was quite strenuous.
At first Li Feng didn't pay much attention to it, but the figure pulling the cart was very thin. Now Li Feng didn't take it too seriously. No cart fell into a bigger pit, and seeing that he couldn't get out, Li Feng got closer and put the cigarette into the cigarette box.
, pushed it smoothly. The car came up. At this moment, Li Feng noticed that the man pulling the car had gray hair exposed through the corner of his hat.
Li Feng didn't expect that this was an old man. It wasn't far from the next trash can. Li Feng was fine now and helped push it all the way. Seeing the trash can arrive, Li Feng thought about it and turned around and walked back. "Young man
, you are tired, take a rest."
Li Feng didn't expect the old man to pay attention to him. The old man's voice was a little hoarse. The hat was removed, and a gray-haired old lady smiled and wiped away her sweat. Just because she was cleaning garbage, her hands were a little gray and black, and her face was full of wrinkles.
I can't tell my specific age. But even if I can't tell, I'm definitely at least sixty or seventy years old.
The old man sat casually on the handle of the garbage truck that put down the garbage. Li Feng did not expect that the old lady was still smoking. Li Feng did not care whether it was dirty or not, and sat casually aside.
"Young man, why haven't you come home so late?" Li Feng took the old man's cigarette. It didn't taste good, it was a bit choking. Hongta, it might be a fake cigarette. Li Feng estimated that this man had seen a lot of Li Zuizi selling it in the town.
The cheapest fake cigarettes are only 20-30 cents per pack. They cost more than 1 yuan, and the brands are quite big.
Li Feng has seen many old people smoking Chinese and other cigarettes, but the taste is really not that good. It is not as good as Hardman and other cigarettes, which are mostly like this for old ladies. Li Feng took a few strong puffs and it was choking, but it was tasteful enough.
."I'm not used to it. These tobaccos have a strong taste, which is actually better than good cigarettes."
The old lady didn't seem to be in a hurry to clean. It was already half past ten, and the old streets of a small town were dimly lit by a few dim street lamps. There was no one on the streets. It was quiet at this time.
, there is a pile of garbage on the side of the street. I guess there are a lot of people there during the day, including cardboard, vegetables, and domestic garbage.
Even on nights like this when winter and spring alternate, you can still smell a strange smell. Li Feng doesn't care about it now. The old lady is very happy to have a young man who can talk and smoke with her. Li Feng is not in the spotlight, the city leaders, district leaders
The leader and the town leader shook hands with the old lady. They did not carry condolences in their hands, but just talked to the old lady.
"Young man, I see you are frowning, why are you thinking?" The old man took a puff of cigarette. This is the most leisurely time for the old man. During the day, people are afraid of others. When others are annoying, smoke a cigarette to hide away.
This is the only time for the old man to have no one and only these tasks, which he can take care of slowly. Don't worry, there are urgings on the street from time to time, so he can finish a low-quality cigarette in peace without having to dodge.
"Yeah, it's a bit annoying. I'm getting busier and busier these days, so I may have overlooked a lot of things." Li Feng said and sighed deeply. There were many things in the village, and Li Xiaoman and Manying didn't have to worry about it. Especially...
Today I heard that the house decoration in Jiangcheng Community has been completed. From now on, Li Feng will have no reason to be here in Amber Villa.
Li Feng didn't know if he was too carefree or too greedy. Of course, during this period, he was a little tired after working too much. Today, he suddenly felt very upset and didn't want to go out for a walk. He was wandering.
When they got here, Li Feng felt strange that he was sitting here with me.
Li Feng learned about the old lady's situation. She was already seventy-five years old. Now she and her wife are responsible for the sanitation of this street. They work two shifts. The old lady usually comes at night so that she can have a solid sleep in the morning. This is the old man.
In order to do something for his wife. This is also the reason why the old lady is happy. The children are not around, so this job can be regarded as the source of livelihood for the old couple.
I work hard every day, cleaning and transporting garbage nearly twenty hours a day. There are many food stalls in this area, and it is even better now. If it is summer, the cleaning will be done until two or three o'clock at night.
Li Feng didn't expect that this thin and frail old lady would have such a hard life. For her, she had to count every stick she smoked. But usually the neighborhood is not bad, and some garbage, bottles and the like are sorted. The old man can collect them and sell them for some money.
In exchange for some cigarette money. This also made the old man clean more carefully, always thinking of sweeping the floor well to repay everyone.
Li Feng listened quietly, and the old man laughed and took a puff of cigarette from time to time. Li Feng asked the old man why he didn't go to find his children or use legal means. Unexpectedly, the old man was surprisingly calm. "That happened to me.
The meat that came out was pink and cute at first, but now that they have grown up and are flying high, we as a couple think that the children can be healthy. Besides, I can still pull the car without them having to worry about it. It is not easy outside, so we help
I don’t want to be too busy and I don’t want to drag them down.” The old man came out of the countryside and the children often complained that they didn’t have rich and powerful parents when they grew up. The old man listened silently and worked more to earn more money. Now that the children have grown up
Go, fly high.
The old man thought silently and prayed that the children would be healthy outside. Li Feng was stunned for a moment. Maybe the old man in front of him was as dirty as the garbage on the roadside, but his heart was purer than anyone else. Li Feng said no more.
, Besides not respecting the elderly, Li Feng may not agree with the old man's indulgence of his children, but he has to admire the old man.
"Actually, there's nothing to worry about. It's not easy to live for only a few years. Young man, I think you should go back and have a good sleep. Tomorrow will be a sunny day again." The old man clapped his hands and held a low-quality stick.
There were not many cigarette butts left, just waiting for the fireworks to go out.
Putting on his hat again, the old man started to work cleaning the garbage. Li Feng sat for a while and looked at the car and saw that there was a big broom. Li Feng took the broom and helped to clean it. The old man smiled and shook his head.
Li Feng was exhausted and sweating, and the time hand reached eleven o'clock. At this moment, Li Feng realized that he had just cleaned two garbage spots. The old man cleaned eight garbage spots in one night because his husband went to work the next day. The old man always wanted to do more.
Sweep and clean a little, and the old man will work less when he gets up tomorrow.
Li Feng didn't know whether the old man was happy or unfortunate, but the old man was still in good health and cheerful. Life was rough, but the old man remained the same. The garbage truck slowly walked away, and the old man was still thin and weak, slowly walking away under the dim street lights. Li Feng
For the first time, I felt that littering was so shameful. Too many old people were like old ladies gone away.
Li Feng carried his tired body back to the car. He didn't care about the bad smell on his body. His clothes were dirty and could be washed, but he had no place to clean his heart. Li Feng's car returned to Lake Villa. At this time, Li Feng's worries were like the heat on a rainy day.
Slowly dissipated. The old man dreamed that he could be healthy until he died of old age, because he would not have to drag others down.
Li Feng felt that the greatest dream in the world was nothing more than this. The old man's life may be hard, but his life is full of happiness. For others and for himself, Li Feng returned to Amber Villa, stopped the car, and went upstairs without thinking about Li Xiaoman.
No one is there yet. "What's going on?" Li Feng smelled bad, his clothes were dirty, and there seemed to be no clean place on his body. "It's okay, I just walked around outside. Why haven't you slept yet, where is the baby?"
"The baby said to wait for daddy, but he was tired from playing today and fell asleep while waiting. I fell asleep when you came back." Li Xiaoman was a little strange. Although Li Feng's clothes were dirty and his face was gray and black, his eyes were still hesitant.
Yu felt that he was gone. The trace of worry was much less. Li Xiaoman didn't know what happened, but when he saw Li Feng like this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Li Xiaoman knew why Li Feng was like this.
Li Feng took a bath, washed his clothes, and dried them. They were almost ready to wear tomorrow. Li Feng slept on the baby's crib, and his whole body felt relaxed for a while.
"You're asking for trouble." Li Feng glanced at the space and saw that the black bear was still sleeping soundly. Corn was piled up everywhere, and the piles in the yard were slowly getting bigger. Li Feng thought about it and decided to forget about it.
, just used to raise fish. Li Feng got some out and said he would get up early and go to the peach supermarket to buy some tomorrow. The baby hasn't eaten corn for a while, and he will go to see Qi Qi and the two old people tomorrow. Man Ying didn't
Knowing whether he would be off tomorrow, Li Feng didn't call. Now he just wanted to call and check the time.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow." Li Feng moved his pillow. He was a little tired and fell asleep after a while. Maybe he felt relaxed because Li Feng woke up and it was half past six in the morning.
Li Feng got up and was busy cooking. Sometimes cooking is actually a good thing to relax his mind. The baby came in wearing big pajamas and slippers, which was because of the smell. The baby rubbed his eyes and walked into the kitchen.
, looked up and saw her father cooking. The little girl rubbed her eyes and couldn't believe it. She rubbed her eyes and rushed over to hug Li Feng's thigh. "Dad, the baby has been waiting for a long time and fell asleep."
