Mama Mai and sister-in-law, who have been driven a little crazy by the three or four waves of ladies who came to harass her, are also very aggrieved. Who would have thought that the arrival and departure of this child would cause such a big reaction among the neighbors?
Mai Fan hasn't been back for more than ten years, right? How come all the people around him are so sincerely in love with each other?
After they told the Mai family the whole story...
Father Mai just sighed and sat on the sofa at home.
As for Brother Mai's bad temper...he would start scolding him as soon as he slapped the table.
"Aren't you stupid! Even if it's just for show, you shouldn't let the second child live outside today!"
"It's okay if we don't pick him up. After all, the child is not that valuable when he is older!"
"But I kicked him out on the first day I came back. Go and see, our family is the only one in Sijiu City!"
"You're just going to show off, and wait until he, this loser, stays at home for a long time, can't find a job, and everything doesn't work, then you'll rush out again!"
"At that time, the truth is on our side, and people around here have to sympathize with our family for recruiting such a careless person."
"It's so good now! People don't even think about what trouble he will cause to the family when he comes back. Anyway, they are not the ones bitten by the lice!"
"People only see that our family doesn't even have food or a place to live for the second child!"
"All the old neighbors around here are here! Even if I had forgotten what happened ten years ago, I remember everything now."
"You stupid bitch! What good can I say to you!!" Brother Mai pointed angrily at the top of Mrs. Mai's head with his hand, but he was trembling but didn't dare to make a move: "It's fine now!! Everyone
Now that I think about it, it was me who persuaded my father to let my second son carry me to the countryside."
"You made the good reputation that I had managed to maintain for so many years suddenly collapse!"
"From now on, when I go out, I will be a white-eyed wolf who can't tolerate my brothers!"
"I...you should leave this person until we come back!!"
Brother Mai was so anxious that he was spitting, and his tone was naturally not good.
How could Sister-in-law Mai, who was so used to being arrogant at home, stand this anger?
She threw the rag in her hand on the table and said, "Our mother also agreed to this!"
"Besides, it was the waiter himself who didn't even give us two a chance to stay."
"He came home inexplicably and left in a hurry!"
"How do you know his actions were not intentional?"
"I see! He is resentful towards your eldest brother and our family!"
"What kind of life did I live in the past? Farming in the countryside!! He wishes that you, the eldest brother, would be scolded more, and my father and mother, who are partial-minded parents, would be criticized more often!!
!”
The sister-in-law was just about to spit out the bad words she used when scolding people, but Mai's mother on the side quickly stopped her: "The second brother doesn't know it... He has been careless since he was a child. In that environment in the countryside, how can
Maybe you have some knowledge and abilities..."
"Didn't he say he would come back for lunch tomorrow?"
"When he comes back, won't you understand everything?"
"Whether you want him to go home or make things clear, it won't take more than one night, right?"
In the end, these words from Mai's mother calmed down the bad mood of the Mai family.
The two of them thought that they should leave work early at noon the next day, so as not to cause any bigger trouble at home when they came back.
The Mai family was so quarrelsome.
Mai Fan, who was missed by his family, had a good sleep.
Early the next morning, he tidied himself up and scattered the electronic watches he had thrown into the tavern on the hotel bed.
Mai Fan picked up the rope and tied the watch inside his shirt circle after circle.
Then he put his documents and valuables in the tavern, got up and walked outside the hotel.
He is going somewhere now.
A very important place imprinted in the memory by the diary.
…
…
Tianqiao Road, this is a mixed place.
It was also depressed a few years ago.
But now, with the country's recovery and prosperity, this place called Tianqiao Road has regained some signs of prosperity.
The streets under the bridge are densely intertwined, and the alleys overlap and adjoin each other.
Even if Mai Fan had the memory of this place, it would still take a lot of effort to find that hidden location.
And just finding a place is not enough.
He also had to pass special screening.
Mai Fan is good at dealing with people. At this time, he is not as shy, shy or rustic as when he returned home.
Holding his hand in his pocket, and with an indescribable arrogance, he strolled to the door of a compound, and leaned towards his brother who was leaning against the wall and was responsible for guarding the door.
"Brother, is there any fire?"
While saying this, Mai Fan took out a pack of red plums from his pocket, took out one for himself, and stuffed the rest of the pack into the brother's hand.
This generosity made the other party stunned for a moment, and then he replied: "Yes! What? You look a bit unfamiliar. You don't seem to be here to buy goods. You are here to meet Brother Quan, right? You want my help in making an introduction."
one time?"
"It's not impossible. You have to find a way to prove yourself. At least you're not just a plainclothes guy here to fish."
There is a way! Prove yourself, right?
Mai Fan put the cigarette behind his ear and took out the homecoming permit issued yesterday.
"I just came home yesterday. I can't go back and work as an undercover agent in just one day, right?"
"Brother has sharp eyes. I'm not here to buy goods, I'm here to sell them."
“This is what’s for sale!”
Mai Fan took out a black electronic watch, covered it with his pocket and gave the brother a look: "That's it, I still have several more."
A watch and a word made the big brother opposite take off his guard.
He looked around, and while there was no one in the alley, he put the bag of red plums in his pocket, tilted his head towards Mai Fan and said, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he led the people behind him towards a path behind the courtyard.
They spared a circle and a half, and then got in through a hole in the back wall of the compound.
The wall was in a half-collapsed state, so when people got in, they blocked the hole with dirt and floating bricks.
Usually no one comes here at all, it is a very hidden entrance.
I thought it was quite shabby here, but when I entered the compound, Mai Fan felt that he still had little experience.
The yard was quite large, with a sturdy greenhouse built in the middle and covered with plastic sheeting. Some women, who looked like they were taking advantage, were walking in and out of the greenhouse entrance with ease.
They all held baskets in their hands, and the baskets were covered with cloth.
I couldn't tell clearly what they bought or sold. Just looking at their expressions, they looked satisfied.
