In just one week, Song Zhongqiu's eye bags have become much thicker, and the circles under his eyes are visibly dark, as if he has applied eye shadow.
That night, after Song Zhongqiu wiped his mother's body, he returned to his room to prepare for bed. He had not slept for a long time. He found that his mother slept during the day and tormented him at night.
It made him particularly angry.
"There's a ghost! There's a ghost!" His mother shouted again at one o'clock in the morning, and her voice was extremely loud. The Chinese pastoral dog in the yard also barked at the house, as if it felt that something was going on in the house.
Song Zhongqiu started to go to bed at nine o'clock in the evening, but every time he was getting ready to go to bed, his mother started to yell. This was the first time he knew how many times.
He scratched his head desperately and gasped for air. He really couldn't stand it anymore. He felt that his physical strength was being exhausted these days. He basically had to look after his mother during the day and had to rest at night.
Was woken up by her.
He quickly got up, rushed to his mother's room, and shouted to his mother: "You damn old woman, can you shut your mouth!"
"Dad, mom is here to pick me up, mom and dad are here to pick me up..." His mother began to cry and pointed out the window.
"I'm here to pick you up, right?! Okay, I'm here to pick you up!" Song Zhongqiu was overwhelmed by anger. He rushed to his mother's bed, picked up a pillow on one side, and then covered his mother's mouth with all his strength.
nose,
His mother struggled desperately. After about a minute, her mother's body completely collapsed.
"You're screaming, you're screaming. I have to treat you to keep you quiet, right?" Song Zhongqiu shouted loudly, and when his mother stopped struggling, he moved the pillow away.
At this time, his mother was looking at him with her eyes. She didn't make any sound. When Song Zhongqiu found that his mother didn't blink, he couldn't help but frowned.
He stretched out his trembling index finger of his right hand and placed it on his mother's nostril. When he found that she was not breathing, he was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, and then began to cry bitterly.
Since Song Zhongqiu lived in a remote mountain village, the death certificate was processed smoothly. After all, it is normal for an old man in his 80s or 90s with brain atrophy to die suddenly.
His eldest brother also participated in his mother's funeral, but the purpose of his visit was actually to divide the house and asked Song Zhongqiu to move out. Naturally, Song Zhongqiu and his wife were unwilling. After all, they had lived here for more than ten or twenty years.
Moreover, they were all taking care of his mother, and his eldest brother failed to fulfill his obligation at all. So his eldest brother was so angry that he did not have any money for his mother's funeral.
In the rural areas of the Mid-Autumn Festival of the Song Dynasty, burials were all carried out, and coffins needed to be purchased. However, the coffins in the village cost several thousand yuan. Later, his wife was unwilling to pay the money, so she rented a good coffin in the village.
In order to save face during funerals, the funeral service company in the village often rents out coffins. However, during the burial, they need to return them and then move the deceased to another cheap coffin.
The rent is not cheap either, costing about 500 yuan. Only a few people in the village know that funeral organizers can rent coffins, and Song Zhongqiu is one of them.
Later, when his mother was buried, there was no coffin available for his mother. After all, the cheapest coffin cost one or two thousand, so he just found a hole and buried his mother...
…
The Clown Emperor clapped his hands and smiled from ear to ear. He said, "This is really a good story, hehehe."
"I have a question." Song Zhongqiu lowered his head and glanced at the clown and asked.
"Tell me, what's the problem?" The Clown Emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
"Did you arrest me because of this incident?" Song Zhongqiu asked.
"Hahaha..." The Clown Emperor didn't answer him, he just covered his stomach and started laughing crazily. The four clowns behind him also laughed from ear to ear like the Clown Emperor, as if they heard a very funny joke.
generally.
"I roughly know why the Clown Emperor arrested them." Ma Xiaotao said softly.
"Well, I know what you are thinking, but why did he arrest us? Could it be that you..." Qin Nan raised his eyebrows and looked at Ma Xiaotao, and Ma Xiaotao certainly understood what he meant.
"What are you thinking about? I know what you are thinking about!" Ma Xiaotao frowned and glanced at Qin Nan.
Qin Nan smiled awkwardly. It was impossible to think about it. If it were someone else, he might be suspicious, but this person is Ma Xiaotao, which is a bit...
"Hahaha, you laughed me to death, you will be next." The clown calmed down and did not answer farmer Song Zhongqiu's question, but pointed to the construction worker next to him.
The construction worker also knew that it was his turn. At the beginning of the game, if he encountered a question he didn't want to answer, he wanted to lie. However, after seeing the graduate student's finger being chopped off, he decided to lie.
The clown told very clearly what happened in his family, and he knew that it was possible that the clown knew the background of everyone present.
"Tell me, have you ever betrayed your own family? Good old man? Haha." The clown said with a smile.
Construction worker Wang Dabao swallowed, then nodded: "Shall I tell you directly?"
"Start." The clown hugged the puppet beside him and looked at Wang Dabao expectantly.
…
Back to half a year ago, it was a hot summer and the beginning of autumn. Wang Dabao finished his work and was about to get off work. However, he found that a colleague in one of his work sheds still had dozens of bricks on hand.
Not finished yet,
So they stepped forward to help him finish the work. The work that originally took half an hour took the two of them less than ten minutes.
"Thank you, Lao Wang. I really appreciate it. I can finally get off work. I'm exhausted. It's so hot today," the worker said, wiping his sweat.
"It's okay, we all work in the same shed, so we should help each other." Wang Dabao said, wiping his sweat.
"Come on, let's have a drink together? Can I treat you to a barbecue?!" the worker asked, raising his eyebrows.
"Let's go, let's go..." Wang Dabao said with a smile.
Then the two of them casually found a nearby barbecue restaurant, ordered vegetarian dishes worth ten or twenty yuan, and bought two bottles of beer.
As soon as they sat down, the two of them started drinking.
"By the way, where are you from?" the worker asked.
"I'm a local, but my family is in the district and county. By the way, what's your name? I just saw you recently." Wang Dabao said after drinking half a bottle of cold beer.
"I'm from the city next door. Just call me Xiaofei. I've been looking for a job in this city. I found this job a week ago. Unexpectedly, I found it as soon as I looked for it. The pay is pretty good." Xiaofei
said.
"I see, you are only in your thirties, why do you come to work at a construction site? It is better to work as a waiter in a hot pot restaurant than here. People here are almost dried into dried meat." Wang Dabao asked with a smile.
road.
"The wages at the construction site are high, especially in the summer. It can be seven to eight thousand a month, with various subsidies. In addition, the construction site has just started, and there will be another reward when it is completed.
Where can I find a job with such high wages and benefits now? I’m not good at sales, I can’t speak, and I don’t have a diploma in other jobs." Xiao Fei sighed.
"That's right, well... come and have a drink. If you have any questions in the future, just ask me." Wang Dabao raised the bottle and said.
The two of them drank like this for more than an hour. After Xiao Fei paid the bill, they supported each other and prepared to go back to the construction site. When they walked to the door of the construction site, Xiao Fei suddenly ran to a corner and started vomiting.
Wang Dabao pointed at Xiao Fei and laughed. At this moment, he saw dozens of small cards on the ground. He picked up a small card with a picture of a very good woman on it, and a series of
telephone number,
He became more and more fascinated while looking at the woman's picture. He didn't know whether it was because of the alcohol or something, but his heartbeat was getting faster and faster. At this time, Xiao Fei, who was not far away, said: "Brother Wang, give me a hand, too."
I feel bad, I haven’t drank so much for a long time..."
