"He went to the east of the city. This kid can endure hardships when doing things. It goes without saying that he is just a little irritable..."
Ye Dongping was distracted by his son and forgot to ask about Ye Tian's whereabouts. He took a bottle of cold beer with well water from the plastic bucket in the yard. After opening it, he poured half a bowl for Ye Tian as well.
These days, most people drink loose beer. However, a brewery was selling it in the county two days ago. A bottle of beer only costs 18 cents. In addition, you can also exchange some wine bottles for some money. In total, it is the same as loose beer.
The beer is almost done.
After Feng Kuang and Ye Dongping discussed it, they directly pulled a cart and placed it at the collection station. Any scavengers who came to sell scraps would give a bottle.
It is said that those who pick up rags are often looked down upon by the people in the city, so although a bottle of beer is not worth much, it still makes them feel respected.
In addition, the price offered by the purchasing station was also very kind, so each of these scavengers promised with confidence that all future scraps would be sold to Feng Kuang's purchasing station.
Ye Tian, who was sweating profusely while running outside just now, drank half a bowl of beer in one breath. Holding the small bowl, he looked at his father pitifully and said, "It tastes great, Dad.
Give me a little more..."
"You brat, how old are you and you want to compete with me for a drink?" Ye Dongping laughed and cursed, but still poured half a bowl of wine for Ye Tian.
Although Ye Dongping went to school for many years and could be regarded as a scholar in ancient times, he still had a very cheerful temperament as a man who grew up in Sijiucheng and was not as pedantic as other parents.
Ye Tian didn't dare to take a big drink this time. He put his mouth to the edge of the bowl and took a small sip. He showed an intoxicated look on his face and said, "Dad, what kind of beer is this... Beer is much better than liquor...
"
"What do you know, men, you just have to drink strong wine. What's so good about this wine? If you drink too much, you will pee more..."
Ye Dongping curled his lips when he heard this. His father was fond of drinking all his life. When he was two years old, his father dipped his chopsticks in wine and gave him licks. His ability to drink has been cultivated since he was a child.
However, his father got cirrhosis of the liver before he was fifty just because of his good drinking. At that time, Ye Dongping was having conflicts with his family because of Ye Tian's mother's affairs. He refused to accept letters or telegrams from the family, and was unable to learn about his father in time.
The news of his death also caused the biggest regret in his life.
Thinking of this, Ye Dongping's face darkened, he picked up the bowl in front of him and drank all the wine in one gulp.
Seeing that his father suddenly stopped talking, Ye Tian knew that he must have thought of something unhappy again, so he quickly said: "Dad, I just saw that Brother Madman's face was not very good, and Yintang was a little cryptic. Could something happen?"
"Hmm? Did you spot it correctly?"
Sure enough, Ye Tian's words diverted Ye Dongping's thoughts. To be honest, this acquisition station could do without him, Ye Dongping, but it definitely couldn't do without Feng Kuang, so he was still very concerned about Feng Kuang's safety.
Ye Tian shook his head and said: "I wasn't sure, but I feel bad. Dad, if you know where he went, please find him..."
Ye Tian regretted a little. The several opportunities he had for divination today were all wasted on strangers on the street, but now he couldn't deduce the good or bad luck of the situation.
Now just based on the face he saw during that meeting, Ye Tian was not sure that something would happen to Feng Kuang, but he just had a bad feeling in his heart.
"I... I only know that he went to the east of the city. I don't know where exactly he went..."
After hearing what Ye Tian said, Ye Dongping became a little anxious. He had never been to this small county town, and before he walked two kilometers away from the purchasing station, it was still the home of Ye Tian's class teacher that Feng Kuang took him to. Where could he go to find it?
Is it closed?
Seeing that his words made his father restless, Ye Tian quickly said: "Dad, don't worry, crazy brother is so clever and can avoid trouble, so don't worry..."
"I hope that's the case. You kid, you've figured it out a long time ago. Why didn't you drag your brother Feng Zi with you?"
Ye Dongping glared at Ye Tian angrily. Although he objected to Ye Tian reading fortune telling, he knew his son's abilities better than anyone else.
"I didn't pay attention at the time..."
Ye Tian muttered in a low voice and didn't say anything else. Who told him to squat on the side of the road to read fortunes to those who had nothing to do with him?
Interrupted by Ye Tian, the meal between the father and son was a little tasteless. After Ye Dongping drank two bottles of beer, he did not eat, so he moved a chair and sat at the door of the yard to wait.
However, four or five hours had passed since then. Seeing that the hand of the old clock he had collected was already pointing to eleven o'clock, Ye Dongping could no longer sit still.
"No, Xiaotian, go, come with me to find your crazy brother..."
Ye Dongping knew his son's ability and might be able to use it, so after locking the door, he took Ye Tian out to look for him.
"Dad, someone is here, is it Brother Crazy?"
As soon as he walked to the door of the yard, Ye Tian heard the sound of a car ringing in the distance. In this place with no village in front of him and no store in the back, he was probably coming to the purchasing station.
There were no street lights outside the buying station. Ye Dongping took a flashlight, which is necessary for every household in this era, and shined it at the place where the sound came from. He couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, "No, it's a woman. She came in the middle of the night.
What are you doing here?"
"Sister Yingying, it's sister Yingying!"
With the light of the flashlight, Ye Tian could clearly see the person coming, and after shouting, he greeted him. Ye Dongping was a little confused. When did his son recognize a sister?
When he ran to Wang Ying's bicycle, Ye Tian also reacted. After holding Wang Ying's bicycle, he asked: "Sister Yingying, how did you know we are here?"
"Ye Tian, let's not talk about this for now, Feng... Feng Kuang, he... he was beaten..."
On the way to the purchasing station, Wang Ying rode at a slow pace. Coupled with the fear in her heart, she couldn't even speak coherently. She put one foot on the ground and even Ye Tian could hear her breathing.
"What? Feng Kuang was beaten? Who did it...?"
Ye Dongping, who had just walked closer, was startled when he heard this, and quickly asked: "This... this girl, what is going on? Is it okay for him... to be sealed?"
"Are you Teacher Ye?"
When she was dating Feng Kuang in the past, Wang Ying always heard Feng Kuang bragging about how highly educated Ye Dongping was and that he was a top student who had gone to university. In this era, most people call educated people teachers, so when she met Ye Dongping
After Dongping, my heart calmed down.
After taking a few deep breaths, Wang Ying said: "Feng Kuang's head was broken and he needed more than ten stitches. He is in the hospital. He asked me to inform you..."
Ye Dongping is also a decisive person. Since things have happened, he must face and solve them. He thought for a while and said: "Girl, you... just wait for me, I will come out soon, and we will go to the hospital together...
…”
Ye Dongping turned back and opened the door of the house, and took out a bag of money from an inconspicuous place in the corner of the house. This was all the money stored in the acquisition station. It is not yet known how serious Feng Kuang's injuries were. Bring more money with you.
