Fa Xiao reunited after a long absence. Once the chatter box is opened, it is difficult to close it. Lin Kun sat in Zhang Dazhuang's stall. He Cuihua took out three bottles of mineral water and gave them to Lin Kun, Zhang Dazhuang, and Zhang Xiaoya. Zhang Dazhuang was a chatterbox when he was a child. This
Suddenly he started talking non-stop, telling Lin Kun the general situation of his childhood classmates and friends, and also told Lin Kun that there would be a class reunion at the end of this month.
Lin Kun spent his childhood in the countryside. He was adopted by a lonely old man. When he was young, the old man fought against the United States and aided Korea. He was once a guard of the First Commander. Later, he was seriously injured in a battle and was blind in one eye.
One leg, he taught Lin Kun all the moves he used to fight when he was a child.
Lin Kun has always been a mystery about his life experience. The old man said that he picked him at the entrance of the village. The old man passed away in the second year after he joined the army. At that time, he knelt in the desert of Mobei and cried loudly. Later,
Once he had the opportunity to go home to visit relatives, he returned to his hometown. He originally wanted to kneel in front of the old man's grave and kowtow, but then he realized that the old man didn't even have a grave. His ashes were scattered directly into the river in front of the village. He knelt there.
I kowtowed three times by a river, lit a stick of incense, and then never went back.
It’s been more than five years now...
Lin Kun's hometown is actually not far from Zhonggang City. The distance is seven to eight hundred miles. From Zhang Dazhuang's mouth, he learned that most of his classmates and friends in childhood are now developing in Zhonggang City. This is also the innate condition for organizing this gathering.
.
Many classmates have bought houses and got married in Zhonggang City. The best among them is Huang Quan, the study committee member of the primary school. He bought a house in a coastal community with an area of more than 100 square meters and a total house price of almost 2 million.
When mentioning Huang Quan, an image of a thin man with triangular eyes immediately appeared in Lin Kun's mind. Huang Quan was tall and long like his mother, and his head was like his father who was an accountant in the village. He could spin very fast, and he was ghostly.
He has a lot of ideas, and he has been known to flatter others since he was a child. He has always been a popular person in front of the teacher. He always makes small reports to the teacher, but because of this, Lin Kun often beats him...
Looking back now, the past is too painful to look back on. Lin Kun smiled in his heart. It is normal for people like Huang Quan to live happily in today's society. The people in this society are the most pitfalls for honest people, but they have made it possible for people like Huang Quan to live happily.
people.
Speaking of the classmates who bought the house, Zhang Dazhuang's face showed unspeakable envy. He and his wife are still renting in the basement. When talking about his own house, Zhang Dazhuang scratched his head in embarrassment, "Kunzi, supposedly
I should invite you to sit at home, but the environment in my place is really bad. How about we go out and find a place to sit. There is a nice restaurant nearby. Let's chat over a drink?"
Only then did Lin Kun realize that it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon. Little Chu Cheng got off from school on time at 4:30. He had agreed with Chu Jingyao before that he had to pick up his son from school every day. When Chu Jingyao was free, the two of them
Together, if Chu Jingyao has no time, he will go alone. This is actually the wish of little Chu Cheng. The little guy has been looking forward to his father for so long, and of course he wants his father to pick him up and drop him off at school every day.
Lin Kun smiled and said to Zhang Dazhuang: "Dazhuang, today is really bad. I have to pick up the children from school."
When he heard this, Zhang Dazhuang was immediately surprised. He thought that Lin Kun would have to have income and housing as a security guard now. With this condition, it was already a miracle that he could take on a naturally beautiful girl like Zhang Xiaoya.
Unexpectedly, he also got rid of his children, and they are already in school!
Looking at Zhang Xiaoya again, her fair and beautiful face is full of youthfulness. She looks like she is only twenty years old at most. If a child goes to school at such a young age, wouldn’t she have to give birth to her child when she is fifteen or sixteen?
Zhang Dazhuang was immediately confused. The expression on He Cuihua's face was also very surprised. The couple looked at Lin Kun and then at Zhang Xiaoya. Zhang Dazhuang gave Lin Kun a thumbs up in his heart, which means, buddy, you are so capable!
He Cuihua looked at Zhang Xiaoya and sighed in her heart, it is good to be young, and her figure has recovered so well after giving birth.
"Dazhuang, Cuihua, I'm leaving first. When we have time another day, let's go out and sit together." Lin Kun stood up to say goodbye, patted Zhang Dazhuang on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother, call me if you need anything.
"
"Yes." Zhang Dazhuang nodded, showing a simple and honest smile. The half-missed front teeth in his mouth added to the joy. In a trance, he seemed to have returned to his childhood. At that time, Lin Kun often said to him: "Brother
, tell me who bullied you."
Zhang Dazhuang took Lin Kun to the gate of the farmer's market. There was a taxi parked outside the door. Zhang Xiaoya got in the car first holding two pots of He Cuihua flowers given to her. Zhang Dazhuang pulled Lin Kun aside and whispered.
: "Kunzi, Zhou Xiaoya may also come to this class reunion."
The smile on Lin Kun's face froze slightly, and a woman with long flowing hair immediately appeared in his mind. Her smile, voice, and smile were still clearly preserved in his mind.
"Well, I understand." Lin Kun smiled, turned around and got into the taxi. The taxi had already driven away, and Zhang Dazhuang was still standing there, shaking his head helplessly and sighing, "He still hasn't forgotten her.
ah."
Zhang Dazhuang returned to the stall. He Cuihua was standing there holding a hundred-dollar bill in her hand, with a strange expression on her face. Zhang Dazhuang hurriedly asked what happened, if he had received a counterfeit bill. He Cuihua shook his head and pointed to where Lin Kun was sitting just now.
Say: "This was found under that stool."
"Kunzi must have dropped it..." Zhang Dazhuang said as he took out his phone and was about to call Lin Kun. Just as he was about to dial the number, he put the phone down again and said to He Cuihua: "
Forget it, this money must have been left behind by Kunzi on purpose. He saw that it was difficult for us and couldn't take those two pots of flowers in vain."
He Cuihua said: "Dazhuang, let's return the money to Kunzi. I gave those two pots of flowers to sister Xiaoya. What will happen now? Besides, those two pots of flowers are not worth so much money. Hurry up.
Give Kunzi a call."
Zhang Dazhuang smiled and said: "Daughter-in-law, you really don't need it. You don't understand Kunzi. He treats me like a brother."
He Cuihua looked at Zhang Dazhuang, sighed and said: "Okay, I don't understand your men's world, as long as you treat me like a brother and a foot, you'll be fine."
Zhang Dazhuang laughed and said: "Daughter-in-law, that is absolutely impossible!"
He Cuihua smiled and rolled her eyes at him.
At this time, a frivolous shout suddenly came from the door of the stall: "Hey, Zhang Heizi, I'm tired of being here with your wife in broad daylight. You have to be careful, there are so many eyes around you."
The speaker was a young man with yellow hair, wearing a black vest, with tattoos on his neck and arms, and several iron rings on his nose and ears. At first glance, he looked like a street gangster.
Behind Huang Mao were two young men dressed similarly to him. One had a shaved head and the other had long, flowing hair. The two of them were also carrying two baseball bats in their hands.
As soon as Zhang Dazhuang heard this voice, he couldn't help but feel sick in his heart, but he still had a respectful expression on his face and greeted Huang Mao: "Brother Fei, why did you use your free time to come here today? Please come in quickly.
"
Huang Mao said with a joking expression: "I miss your wife, so come over and have a look." After saying that, he also gave He Cuihua a wink.
"You..." Zhang Dazhuang was about to get angry. He had already clenched his fists, but was stopped by He Cuihua.
Huang Mao started teasing even more unscrupulously, "Zhang Heizi, look at how cowardly you are, why do you still want to fight with me?"
Zhang Dazhuang gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Fei, don't go too far."
The yellow-haired eyebrow raised, the expression on his face changed, and he suddenly cursed: "You stinky shameless bitch, which one of us is too much? You both owe me two months of protection money."
Okay, if you don’t pay your damnedest today, I will smash all your flowers and plants immediately!
Zhang Dazhuang angrily tried to answer him, but He Cuihua pulled him back. He Cuihua stood in front and said with a smile: "Brother Fei, don't be angry. My Dazhuang has such a bad temper. It's not like we won't pay the protection fee."
, it’s just that business hasn’t been very good lately, and I’ve never had enough money, and…”
He Cuihua paused, her tone became cautious, and said: "The protection fee has increased a bit too fast. It started out as 200 yuan a month, but now it has increased to 800. We are a small business..."
Not letting He Cuihua finish her words, Huang Mao yelled angrily: "You bitch, don't talk about those useless things. What age are we in now? Prices are soaring. Why don't you allow me to increase the protection fee? How can other people pay for protection?"
If your family doesn’t pay the fee, I think you are deliberately going against me and don’t want to do anything here anymore!”
He Cuihua quickly said with a smile: "Brother Fei, don't get me wrong. I am just a woman complaining. Don't take it seriously. We will definitely pay the protection fee, but do you think we can extend it for two more days?"
"No, I have to pay the protection fee now, or get out of here and stop hanging out in this farmer's market!" Huang Mao said domineeringly, and the two boys behind him shook the baseball bats in their hands.
There were many people watching the excitement around. He Cuihua's cheeks were red and hot. Zhang Dazhuang stood behind He Cuihua and felt like he was dying. He was a dignified man, hiding behind a woman. What kind of thing was this?
, thinking about him, he was ready to stand up and argue with Huang Mao. If it didn't work, he would fight with him. Calling this little brat all day long and being bullied by him was as disgusting as eating a fly!
He Cuihua seemed to have telepathy with him. As soon as he clenched his fists, he turned back to look at him and said in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive, I will handle this matter. After all, we have to live on this business.
"
As soon as he heard the word 'life', Zhang Dazhuang immediately lost his temper. He could only suppress all his anger. In fact, his flower stall was not unprofitable, but he had a father who was sick and took medicine all year round.
To support my younger sister who is studying, the little money she earns from the flower stall in a month is simply not enough.
He Cuihua called Fei Ge again with a smile and said a lot of good things. Huang Mao then reluctantly relented and said that he would give them another week. If they still failed to pay the protection fee after one week, they would bear the consequences.
While talking, Huang Mao caught a glimpse of the hundred yuan left by Lin Kun in He Cuihua's hand. His eyes suddenly brightened and he grabbed it. He raised it and waved it proudly and said: "Let's go, brothers, let's go drink!"
