The food and wine were served, and Xiao Mao drank more than a dozen glasses. He felt that the beer was not flavorful enough, so he ordered a bottle of white wine. After drinking a few more glasses of white wine, Xiao Mao suddenly yelled at me for fucking them. I am a human being, too.
Meng Xiaoan didn't say anything, didn't ask him what was going on, and drank cup after cup with Xiao Mao.
Sometimes talking is superfluous.
Xiaomao finally got drunk and vented all his complaints, telling the story of that year. His words were helpless but he had no regrets.
Xiao Mao suddenly cried as he spoke, hissing loudly.
"Look, it's up to you. No one has ever seen anyone cry." Xiao Mao yelled at a passerby with runny nose and tears.
"Neuropathy."
"It's your grandson's." Xiao Mao moved the stool to hit the man.
"He's drunk. Xiao Mao, put it down." Meng Xiaoan asked the man to leave, and then said to Xiao Mao, "Put down the stool."
"You fucking look down on me, I'll smash that bitch to death."
"I asked you to put down the stool for me." Meng Xiaoan stared at Xiaomao, his eyes, his face, and his unsettled heart.
Xiaomao's lips moved a few times, and finally he put down the stool. He let out a wine burp, and sat down on the ground as if he had no strength left.
"Waiter, pay the bill." Meng Xiaoan called the waiter over.
"I'll buy it, I'll buy it, don't fight with me." Xiao Mao stood up to pay the bill and took out a few crumpled fifty yuan sheets from his pocket.
"Sir, one hundred and five yuan."
"I'll give you fifty yuan, do you want it?" Xiao Mao shouted to the waiter, "If you don't want it, I'll leave."
"Don't you still have fifty yuan in your pocket?" Meng Xiaoan patted Xiao Mao's shoulder and said.
Xiaomao shook his head, wondering when he had an extra fifty yuan, and handed the fifty yuan note to the waiter.
"I don't want the five yuan."
Meng Xiaoan and Xiao Mao got into a car. If Meng Xiaoan remembered correctly, the address of Xiao Mao's house should not have changed.
Xiao Mao had become a drunkard now. When he got out of the car, Meng Xiaoan helped him go upstairs and took out the key from Xiao Mao's pocket.
There was a little girl in the house, about ten years old, with a sallow complexion and a very thin body.
"Uncle." The girl was doing her homework. When she saw Meng Xiaoan helping Xiao Mao come in, she quickly went to ask for a towel.
Meng Xiaoan looked at the four-walled home and sighed. After helping Xiaomao into the room, Meng Xiaoan said to the girl, "Are you the only one in the house?"
"Mom and dad are taking care of grandpa in the hospital. Are you my uncle's friend?"
"Well, we are very good friends." Meng Xiaoan took out all the money from the wallet and handed it to the girl, "Take it."
The girl shook her head.
"Take it, if you need money, I'll lend it to you."
"Thank you, but I don't take other people's money."
"Well, let me give you an IOU. I'll treat it as if you borrowed it from me. When you grow up and have money, you can pay it back to me, okay?" Meng Xiaoan tore off a piece of paper.
The girl bit her lower lip.
"good."
Meng Xiaoan handed her the written IOU: "Remember to buy some clothes first. If you catch a cold, you won't be able to study well."
The girl nodded: "Thank you."
Li Shi smiled and touched the girl's head, chatted with the girl for a few minutes, and then walked into Xiaomao's room again and put Chengqi's business card on the table.
When he walked out of Xiaomao's house, Meng Xiaoan made a phone call to Cheng Qi and explained his purpose. Cheng Qi said that I didn't settle the account with you, so just give me a card. Meng Xiaoan, you are a bit interesting.
Meng Xiao'an said, "I asked you for help because you must think highly of me. Otherwise, you wouldn't have given me your business card. If you, a noble man, are so angry at me, I think your father-in-law would have shot me if he asked me for help. I am now
I can talk to you. Chengqi smiled three times and said, no problem, you can ask him to come to work at my place tomorrow. Meng Xiaoan said, I would like to thank you first, you are a noble person. Chengqi said, don’t thank me too much.
If something goes wrong with my son, I will beat you to death. Meng Xiaoan laughed and said, if something goes wrong with him, I will personally give him my things. Cheng Qi said, "That's it. I'm still in a meeting."
Let’s have a few drinks if we have time. Maybe I’ll need your help with something later. Meng Xiaoan said no problem, and added, you’d better not send anyone to follow me.
Cheng Qi was stunned for a second and said yes.
It was already twelve o'clock at noon when Meng Xiaoan got home. He only had his sister at home. He told her about the matter. She said she had some money and asked Xiaomao to go treat his father. Xiaoan said, sister, I have money.
Get it to him now, life is at stake.
Meng Xiaoan weighed the envelope and found that there was fifty thousand yuan in it. Meng Xiaoan put the money in his pocket and told his sister to go out. He suddenly thought of the enchanting woman he saw today. He remembered it without any warning. Meng Xiaoan arrived
I don’t think my immunity is that bad.
…
"How much?" Zhu Yeqing asked the stall owner in a soft voice. She took a fancy to a wooden comb. Her comb was broken and she wanted to buy one.
"Fifty yuan." The stall owner is an obscene-looking man. He would have been extremely happy to meet such a beauty, but the small snake on the white jade-like arm of the enchanting woman was enough for him to remove the obscene woman.
The thoughts are suppressed.
Zhu Yeqing took out the money clip that was sewn stitch by stitch from blue cloth, took a look at it, and said, "I'm going to look elsewhere." He was about to leave.
"Wait a minute." The stall owner showed his yellow teeth and said with a smile, "Well, thirty yuan is the lowest price." After a pause, "Is this the little snake you raised?"
Zhuyeqing took out three ten-dollar bills and handed them to the stall owner, nodded, and put the comb away.
"Why don't you sell the little snake to me? You are a foreigner. I hear your voice and you are not a local. If the city management sees you, your little snake will be confiscated."
"It's called Xiaoqing, and he is my friend. No one can take Xiaoqing away." Zhuyeqing said calmly and left the stall.
After Zhuyeqing walked out of the decoration market, she hid Xiaoqing's clothes in her sleeves. Despite this, Zhuyeqing's enchanting temperament was enough to make animals and women stop and look at each other. As for some gangsters, they even whistled fiercely.
Zhu Yeqing was indifferent and looked at the busy road. After asking a passerby for directions, he set off on the road again. "Sister, sister, I'm so hungry. Please give me some money." A man with a dirty face said
Come on, the little girl in tattered clothes said imploringly to Zhuyeqing, her big eyes full of expectation.
Zhu Yeqing glanced at it, with a calm expression on his face, showing no disgust or pity, and took out a five-dollar note from his wallet.
"Thank you sister, thank you sister, you are such a good person." The little girl said words of gratitude.
Zhuyeqing didn't show any smile and left.
"A discerning person will know it's a lie at a glance. It's so easy to believe others." Meng Xiaoan saw this scene and showed a look that was not a sneer. He didn't expect to meet this enchanting woman for the second time. On this bridge, Li Shu
Her tone was playful and teasing: "How about I look pitiful and give me a few dollars?" The little snake was probably in her sleeve, Meng Xiaoan noticed.
Zhu Yeqing looked at the young face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too sober while living."
