The little chicken feet voice on the phone was a little excited.
I was a little happy when I met an acquaintance in a foreign country, so I said yes, what a coincidence, I just stopped by to buy some popcorn, and I didn’t expect that it was your brother who popped the popcorn.
The thing is like this, a little chicken-footed woman once said that she had an unsatisfactory brother, and her mother was hospitalized with cancer and had no money to treat it, so she left Lanzhou and worked as a security guard in Yugang. ??
Her brother Wang Liuxing was popping popcorn in Xianyang because he wanted to earn some money to treat his mother's illness. In the past, I saw red pimples on her face. The skin cancer was found to be in the late stage and could not be cured. She passed away last night.
"Xiang Yunfeng, I beg you. I didn't have time to say it just now. You go back to my brother and ask him to go back and help with the funeral arrangements. I can't do it alone."
I nodded in agreement and immediately returned to the popcorn stand to find Wang Liuxing. He was still slumped on the ground wiping tears.
After telling what happened, Wang Liuxing stood up and said, "Thank you, brother. I didn't expect you to know my sister. We haven't seen each other for several years. How is she now? Has she made any money?"
I thought of the few small changes in Little Chicken Feet's wallet, and remembered that she had to pay for fried cakes on credit.
I nodded and said, "It's okay. Your sister can earn 900 yuan a month and lives in a rented house by herself. Don't worry about it. She can't handle it as a girl. You go back and help her."
He wiped his eyes and said: "I know, brother, I just bought the train ticket at night. My mother is gone, what's the use of making money? I don't plan to come back after I return to Lanzhou. These things are too heavy to take away. Are you?"
My sister’s friend is my friend, and I give you a brother.” He pointed to the popcorn machine on the ground.
I immediately shook my head and said no, what do I need these things for?
"Okay, I'll sell it to a scrap metal collector later."
"You wait first."
I thought about it and said, "Okay, I want it, I'll take care of it, you can go."
He nodded, stretched out his hand and said, "Then just give me fifty yuan."
"ah?"
"You still want money? Didn't you say you would go back to Lanzhou and stop working, and you wanted to give it to me as a gift?" ."
He shook his head and said: "Brother, I said, I gave it to you, I didn't say I would give it to you. I bought this machine for 100 yuan, plus the broken tricycle can be sold for at least 80 yuan. You are my sister's friend. I will give you a discount of 30 yuan. Here
Fifty will do."
I said I don’t want it anymore, you can keep it.
"Forty! Brother, just give me forty!"
He dragged me and said, "Let me buy new clothes, otherwise the neighbors will make a joke when I go back."
I sighed. The two siblings were not doing well. One of them ate fried cakes on credit, and the other had no money to buy clothes.
I gave him three hundred yuan, and the extra money was for the sake of the little chicken-footed lady.
Wang Liuxing thanked me repeatedly, took the money and left.
I wanted this thing because it was useful to me. It was dark, and after making sure no one was following me, I got on the tricycle and pulled a bunch of things back.
Xiaomi recovered well. She came out and said, "Brother Feng, what is this and where did you pick it up?"
I said this is popcorn popcorn. I bought it. It’s useful. Come and eat it. There are a lot of them ready-made. That’s enough.
Lao Qian’s daughter also ate a lot, and I piled all the uneaten food in her room.
From the time of the accident to now, excluding Brother Fake Fish, he and Hongyan have not contacted me. Because such an incident happened, I am very sensitive to acquaintances on the phone, and I don’t even dare to answer the phone, for fear of letting people know.
Xiaomi and I hid in Lao Qian's house.
After dinner, I urged Xiaomi to take the medicine, Guan Laoqian borrowed a shabby coat and put it on, then put on a monkey hat and rode a tricycle to the nursing home.
At this time, I couldn't believe anyone on the phone, including the boss.
I set up a stall under a street lamp at night, popping popcorn as a cover.
I don’t know how to use that thing. Someone came over with corn and asked how much a pot was. I said it was 800 yuan for a pot, which scared everyone away.
After waiting like this for two days, I finally received news from Mr. Wu. Mr. Wu said on the phone that he had driven back and brought Guicao Po from the Miao village. She is the kind of Miao girl who can really cast poison.
He and Guicaopo arrived at the nursing home around nine o'clock, so I pretended to be popping popcorn to see if the call was genuine or not, and if it was really Master Wu.
Time passed very quickly, and it was almost half past nine that day.
A beam of car lights flashed in the distance, and when I walked in, I saw clearly that it was the car that Mr. Wu drove when he left.
I quickly ran over and blocked the car.
"What are you doing?" the driver asked. .???.
I looked at the window and shouted: "Are you popping popcorn? It costs one dollar a pot."
The window rolled down and Mr. Wu said: "Get out of the way."
Finally confirming that it was me, I took off my monkey hat.
"I, it's me, Master Wu."
Mr. Wu was stunned and asked what was going on.
I got in the car directly and said, "Master Wu, don't drive forward. The nursing home is not safe. It's a long story. Let's talk somewhere else."
Mr. Wu frowned and said, "Xiao Liu, go out and go to the express hotel parking lot."
The car turned around and left Ginkgo Street.
Only then did I notice that there were two more people in the car, an old lady wearing Miao costume, probably in her sixties, with large round earrings on her ears.
There was also an older man in the car. Judging from his gray hair and wrinkles on his face, he was probably in his seventies at least.
Mr. Wu introduced: "This is Gu Po from Dahoushan Village in Guangxi. She and Alan were sisters before. This is Jin Miao from Luoping County. With them here, your problem should be solved."
"Hello, you two." I greeted quickly.
The old man and the old woman just looked at me and didn't reply.
"They can't understand Mandarin. You're lucky. I originally thought it would be good to invite Po Gu. But I didn't expect that Jin Miao from Luoping County also knew Alan when he was young. They are all willing to help you."
Jin Miao is not a personal name, it is a title in the Miao village just like Gu Po.
Do you remember that I told a little story before? There was a reason why I told that story at that time. It was the story of the Philosopher's Stone standing on the Jinsha River. There was a strange man who could control pigs to help find gold mines.
That person was Han, and a few lifetimes later his descendants became Miao people. The descendants of that person are the old Jin Miao in the car.
He has a very high status in the Miao village, even higher than Gu Po. Even if the Miao village chief sees Jin Miao, he must be respectful to him. That's why Mr. Wu said that I am lucky.
In the deep mountains of western Guangxi, the Miao language of Dahoushan Miaozhai Village is very special, with Guizhou-Dian accent. What they speak is a fusion of Tibetan language and Miao-Yao language. It is somewhat similar to the language spoken by the Qingmiao people in eastern Yunnan, but its meaning is different.
It's different, very special, similar to Cantonese and Sichuan dialect, some of which have similar pronunciation.
In Cantonese and Sichuan dialect, wear shoes (hai), ah, street boy.
Gu Po with big earrings spoke very fast. He suddenly pointed at me and started talking a lot.
Master Wu's expression changed, and he said in poor Miao dialect, please speak it slowly. If you speak it too fast, I can't understand it. (Master Wu can say this because his wife, Alan, is from Dahoushan Miao Village.
)
"What does this mother-in-law mean?" I asked.
Mr. Wu said: "Po Po Gu said that she saw that there were worms in your stomach, and she could help you get rid of them, but there is one condition."
When I heard this young lady say that I had worms in my stomach, I got scared and quickly asked, "What are the conditions? If you want money, you can, and she can just give me the number."
Mr. Wu said with a strange expression: "I really didn't expect this. Grandma Gu said that you are good-looking. After curing you, you want to go back with her and marry her granddaughter."
I didn't react for a long time, this is too outrageous!
I said, "Master Wu, did you hear that right? The Miao people still want to intrude on the door? Then I will no longer be a son-in-law!"
