The taxi stopped at Ping'an Street. Ye Shaofeng paid and got out of the car. The cigarette in the corner of his mouth had not been finished yet, and there was only one butt left.
He took two strong puffs into his mouth, threw the cigarette to the ground, and stubbed it out with his feet.
Ping'an Street is not a business street, but a general name for a residential area.
Ping'an Street is a large area of bungalows.
You can see clearly that this is a bungalow area, not a shanty town. There are no poor people living here. Every family has a large private courtyard with bright and bright houses and good lighting. Senior officials in the old Luyang City like to live in such courtyards.
Ye Shaofeng's family used to live here. Although he had never seen his father since he was born, he had asked his mother for information about his father more than once. But his mother never told him.
Mother would only say: "Your father is a good man and a real man. As long as you work hard, you will definitely meet your father."
Ye Shaofeng is now twenty-six and seven, his mother is gone, and he still has not seen his father's true face in Lushan. He doesn't know his father's identity, nor why his father abandoned his wife and left the family. He only knows that his father is a good man.
, as long as you work hard, you will definitely see him.
The French plane trees on both sides of the street stood in the cold wind, like warriors. These trees watched Ye Shaofeng grow up here.
Like every autumn, the streets are still covered with withered yellow leaves. From time to time, a luxury car passes by Ye Shaofeng, raising the dead leaves all over the ground.
After his mother died, Ye Shaofeng joined the army. This home has become strange to him. When he walked into Ping'an Street, he almost couldn't find his home.
Finally, I walked to a door. At the door, two stone lions squatted majestically. The iron pull ring on the vermilion double-open solid wood door was rusty, and the paint on it was cracked.
The house number was 086. Ye Shaofeng was sure that this was his home. He took out a string of heavy keys and made a long-lost sound. He pushed the door lock in, but it was a little rusty. With a little force, the lock still opened.
Ye Shaofeng pushed open the folding wooden door with mixed emotions. Inside the courtyard, there was a desolate scene. The pool in the middle of the courtyard had dried up, and the swimming fish in it had disappeared. Several sycamore branches were growing wantonly, and the dying yellow trees were growing wildly.
The leaves block a large area of sunlight.
In the main hall of the house, there is a photo of his mother, black and white, which is a portrait. But Ye Shaofeng has always been unable to understand his mother's death. A report from the police said that there was a car accident and the body was cremated. Ye Shaofeng did not even look at his mother's body.
One glance.
Ye Shaofeng never believed that her mother was dead. She felt that the ashes in the box could not be her mother's. Cremating without the consent of the family was not a normal case handling rule. Moreover, the police were explaining the car accident case to him.
At that time, Ye Shaofeng was still secretive about where the car accident occurred, when, and who was responsible. Ye Shaofeng had no idea at all. All he could do at the time was listen to the police. As a child who was still in high school, he could
Nothing can be done, nothing can be found.
With a heavy heart, Ye Shaofeng also gave up his studies. This man who could be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University gave up his future and joined the army with the help of his neighbors.
After eight years, I finally returned to my home. The ruins in front of me made Ye Shaofeng burst into tears. He shed a few tears, and Ye Shaofeng quickly wiped them away.
I calmed down my heavy heart and told myself secretly: Man, you can't cry. In order to see your father and find out whether your mother is really dead, you must be strong and make yourself stronger! Only you can be strong.
Only those riddles and questions will be solved bit by bit!
The house is still the same, with no change at all. The pot of flowers in front of the window is still there, but it has withered long ago, and the remaining dry branches are lingering in the sun.
A layer of dust covered the coffee table in the living room. When you touch it with your hands, it is fine and soft. Under the sun, the dust is flying all over the sky. No matter how dilapidated the home is, I am finally back.
Ye Shaofeng didn't want to live in the company anymore, so he simply moved back home. There was such a big house with so many rooms, and he saw that the water pipes and lines at home were all intact. It was better to live in his own home than floating outside.
Anyway, now that I can easily get close to Chang Fuguo, and I have an affair with his daughter, there is not much point in living in the company. When I return home, everything is convenient and I can get used to everything comfortably.
Ye Shaofeng made a call and hired several cleaners to clean the house thoroughly. Then he went to the heating company and paid the heating bill. The heating pipes in the house were unblocked and the heating was provided, even in the cold winter.
It will also be very warm.
Later, this boy went to the flower market and bought a few bonsais and placed them in the bright living room. Everything seemed to be back to the past, and everything started to be full of life again.
I opened the cabinet, put on my pajamas from eight years ago, and put on the slippers I used to wear. I found that they were too small, so I still had to go out and buy them.
In the evening, Ye Shaofeng went to the supermarket alone. He bought some daily necessities and some home clothes. After returning home, he had to take care of everything by himself.
I came home with two large bags of things. I had just put away the things I bought, put on my new pajamas and slippers, and was ready to sleep comfortably, when my cell phone suddenly rang.
The originally peaceful atmosphere was broken by the ringtone. Ye Shaofeng was jumped and almost threw his phone out like a grenade.
I haven't seen the phone number before, it seems to be from out of town. But Ye Shaofeng still answered it.
"Who?" Ye Shaofeng asked.
"Chen Jiannan."
"Oh, Director, what's the matter?" Ye Shaofeng said jokingly when he heard it was this living Bodhisattva.
"I have already sent my men to solve the problem of your debt. We used our police methods to shock Kang Dahua. You can go to his bullshit entertainment city to find an accountant and get the money directly."
"Oh, you didn't reveal my identity, did you?" Ye Shaofeng asked.
"Expose your ass, our police also have principles in handling affairs. We say what should be said and say nothing about what should not be said. Besides, you can rest assured that my subordinates are doing things. However, we use legal and proper methods.
way.
By the way, I’m giving you a final warning. I can protect you when you make small fuss, and I can also help you with small things, but don’t let me expose you!" Chen Jiannan said, although his tone was stern, but mixed with
More of a kind person.
"Thank you, Mr. Director. If anything happens in the future, just give me your instructions. I, Ye Shaofeng, owe you a favor!"
"Stop doing this, and less trouble for me in the future is better than anything else!" With that, the other end hung up the phone.
Ye Shaofeng put down his cell phone, and his mood suddenly brightened. He changed his clothes and walked out of the house, and went directly to Yuxiang Entertainment City. Getting there was very smooth. The young people who were beaten by him yesterday all bowed and bowed when they saw him.
"Come and get the money. Hurry up and go to the accountant on the third floor to get it. The money has already been prepared."
"Where is your boss?" Ye Shaofeng asked.
"The boss was sent to the hospital by you. I'm afraid he won't be able to come out in the next month or two..."
