"Xiao Fei, don't go tonight!" Brother Xu said, putting his arm around my shoulders.
I stood up like crazy, shook my head vigorously and said: "I have to go! I want to ask that person face to face!! How much did Hong Tao give him! What did he give him!! He let him betray us for four years.
The brotherhood!! He betrayed a feeling that cannot be cut apart with a knife or penetrated by a gun!"
My mind was very messy. Scene after scene appeared in my mind. I recalled that our brothers used to eat instant noodles and talk about the pretty girls in the dormitory. We took machetes and fought with Huang Mao. It was the most difficult time.
, we have all survived, how could *** betray him now, I really can’t figure it out, I can’t figure it out!!!
"Xiao Fei! Sometimes! What you see with your eyes may not be true! You have to be rational! Do you understand?" Brother Xu looked at me, spinning around in place for a few times, his face uncertain, and then again
He said something without thinking.
But at this time, I was obviously overwhelmed by the anger in my heart and was a little out of breath. I had no time to analyze what Brother Xu said.
I don't know why, I want to cry, but I can't. I just feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable in my chest.
"Hey, let's go!" Brother Xu stood up, pulled me, and slowly walked out of the community.
I didn’t know where Brother Xu was taking me, and I didn’t ask. I followed him numbly into the taxi. After a while, we arrived at the community where I once lived. I was in a trance for a moment, as if
I saw that we, a few brothers, put our arms around each other’s shoulders, laughed together, and moved into this large duplex.
Among these people, there are Mumu, Chenchen, Zhang Wei, Yaoyao, Qiao Mimi, Brother Xu and Sister Baobao. The picture is particularly clear...
"Let's go, we're here!" Brother Xu's words shattered these images. I shook my head and followed Brother Xu out of the taxi.
Brother Xu didn't take me with him, didn't go back to the way, but turned a few corners and found a beggar in the warehouse where debris was piled behind the property.
I have seen this beggar before. I drank too much and vomited all over him. I also gave him cigarettes and brought him leftovers.
"He is the beggar you had dinner with, right?" I looked at Brother Xu and asked abruptly.
"Yes, but I couldn't say it at that time, so I lied to you!" Brother Xu did not deny it and nodded.
I didn't say anything when I heard Brother Xu's answer. Brother Xu always has a backup plan when doing things, as if his cards are endless.
Although I have only met this beggar a few times, I feel that I need to introduce him because he is the key to tonight. These things I heard Brother Xu say later.
This beggar is from the south. I don’t know his name. I only heard Brother Xu call him Lao Liu. This Lao Liu is definitely a tough guy. He once served as a soldier. When he was in the company, he did shooting, free fighting, and outdoor training.
I once won the first place in the military region individually.
Such an outstanding person, after retiring, he had to be assigned to the local government to work as a security guard, but he was not even given this opportunity. He spent five years of his youth for the country, and all he got in exchange was 20,000 yuan.
money for demobilization.
His parents had gray hair on their temples, but they did not forget to marry him. They had a wife and children, but they had no money.
Some people say that you have long hands and feet, so why don't you just make a living? But he has no food to eat, no farmland at home, no business, and five years of military career have made him completely out of touch with society, so he should have a fucking
A security guard should also have a security captain as a relative!!
I have worked as a waiter, fought against big bags at the train station, and done all the dirty work that I can do. However, what I got in return was this sentence from my wife: "You are also a fucking man!! Your son has been born!
I’ve never had a fucking dumpling meal!!”
I don't know what kind of struggle Lao Liu had in his heart at that time, but he only said one sentence: "Tonight, our family will eat dumplings!"
No one knew what he did after he went out for a day, but when he came home at night, he had tens of thousands of dollars extra. His wife, who dreamed of getting rich, didn't even ask. That night, she rode her bicycle and went
I went to the county and bought a gold necklace.
In this way, Lao Liu often didn't go home for several months, or even for several years, but he never forgot to send money to his family every month. Brother Xu didn't say how they met, but when they met, Lao Liu
He has advanced lung cancer and is a nationally wanted criminal.
Did Lao Liu do something wrong? Did Lao Liu’s wife do something wrong? No one can explain this clearly!
"Haha, Xiao Xuzi, I really don't want to see you!!" Old Liu wiped his face carelessly, and then stood up from the dirty shabby quilt.
"Thank you for protecting my brother for so long. I will never break my promise to you. This morning, I remitted five hundred thousand to your family!" Brother Xu said expressionlessly.
"Don't worry about your work! I don't know what happened today, but I suddenly want to eat hot pot!" Old Liu looked at Brother Xu with a smile and touched his belly.
"Let's go, I'll buy you a drink!" Brother Xu didn't mind that Old Liu was dirty, so he put his arms around his neck and walked out of the community first. I bowed my head and followed him out without saying a word.
The three of us took a taxi and first went to the bathing center and took Lao Liu to take a bath. Then we went to a large shopping mall and bought Lao Liu a brand new suit and gave him a haircut.
, the beggar Old Liu instantly transformed into a somewhat thin, elegant and middle-aged man. Compared with the beggar just now, there is a qualitative difference.
After finishing all these things, Brother Xu chose another hot pot restaurant, the best in the city, and then treated Lao Liu and me to a meal.
To be honest, this meal was too depressing. Brother Xu didn’t say anything and smoked cigarettes one after another. I had no appetite at all and couldn’t eat. There was only Lao Liu, eating mutton and drinking beer.
Then he kept talking.
"Eat something! The mutton here is good!"
"Little brother, give me a cigarette!"
"I don't know if my wife cooked for my son!"
"..."
Lao Liu was eating and talking. I looked at him and didn't know how to answer the question, so I remained silent.
"Old Liu, tonight...you don't have to go...!" Brother Xu said abruptly with chapped lips, blowing out a smoke ring.
Lao Liu was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: "I'm not going there just for you!! I've thought about it!"
"Then... cheers!" Brother Xu raised his glass, bumped it with Lao Liu, and drank it all in one gulp.
The meal lasted until 9 o'clock in the evening, and then Lao Liu, drunk and hazy, walked with us to the Jiangbei construction site.
