"Da Jun, I'm 30 this year. I've been holding back a lot of things and no one has said anything to me. It's rare that you take the initiative to come to my place for dinner. Don't think I'm verbose..."
"No, I'm listening!"
Tie Biao pointed to the two big cushions in front of him, "Sit down!" Tie Jun nodded, and the two brothers finally sat down. Tie Jun wanted to call him brother several times, but he couldn't open his mouth.
"Later, my family moved to your backyard, and I also had a father. You also know that Dong Laizi is even more irritable than Lao Tie.
Isn’t there a saying about Chongqi? Lao Tie is the soul of Chongqi, and Dong Laizi is the bone of Chongqi. It talks about their feelings for Chongqi.
There is another saying, there is no steel that old iron cannot weld together, and there is no machine that Dong Laizi cannot repair. This is about their ability.
On the first day I arrived at Dong's house, I got a black eye and my mother didn't get any better, just because I didn't call her dad or change my surname.
When I was six years old, I learned to dismantle the machine at home and put it back together as it was. You see, this finger does not bend back, it was smashed at that time."
Tie Biao stretched out his left hand, his index finger bent and arched, and Tie Jun sighed.
"Later, when I reached school age, my boss bought me new clothes, a new school bag, a notebook, and pencils, and happily sent me to school.
When we were seated separately, Zhang Jinfeng, the deputy director's girl, and I were assigned a seat. Zhang Jinfeng said, 'I don't want to sit at the same table with a bastard.'
I didn't care which way I divided it, but I couldn't bear it when she called me a bastard, so I pushed her to the ground and blasted her with a blaster.
The principal happened to pass by my class, pushed aside the class teacher who was pulling me, and beat and kicked me for ten minutes.
I called my parents. When the old director saw me looking disgraced and looking like I was running away from home, he asked who beat me. The principal said, I will educate your wild boy for you.
Without saying a word, the old director picked up the stool and fucked the principal. The deputy director also came, but it was difficult and he didn't dare to pull it.
It's ridiculous to think about it. I went to school for one day and didn't even see the textbook. To this day, I still keep my school bag, pencils, and notebooks!
That was also the day when my mother knew that I was in trouble and that my boss was also in trouble. She lost concentration and walked under the crane and was knocked down by the steel plate.
We rushed over and I got into the ambulance. On the way, my mother said: 'Iron Fence is your biological father!' and then she died.
I don’t even know who Tie Fence is, but I guess it’s Lao Tie.
On the day my mother was buried, both Lao Tie and the old lady came. The old lady stood there for a long time, and I watched fire emanating from their eyes.
It's also strange that after my mother left, Lao Dong didn't touch me with a finger.
When I was fourteen years old, I had already learned most of Lao Dong's skills. Most of the time, I was the one doing the work while he watched.
That year, there was an accident at the boiler factory. I went to rescue the accident with Lao Dong and Lao Tie. Lao Tie took his apprentice into the boiler to weld the leaking point.
Lao Dong and I repaired the machine. We were done. The fire truck ran out of water. Lao Tie and the others hadn't come out yet. The temperature began to rise and reached 51 degrees.
Everyone began to artificially cool down, and things that could hold water were put on the stage. Old Dong also climbed up to the high platform, and I followed behind.
The moment I entered the furnace, he kicked me down. When I tried to get up again, the worker hugged me.
A large amount of poisonous gas leaked, and everyone was gripping their hearts. Finally, someone shouted: ‘The leak spot has been welded!’ Lao Tie pulled Lao Dong out, and the mayor took the lead in applauding.
The scene of two old guys raising their hands, I can still recall it with my eyes closed. It’s so awesome!
After getting off the high platform, Lao Dong fell into a coma. Just like my mother, he died halfway through and said: 'Tie Biao, don't lose your skills!'
On the day I sent Old Dong off, I sat in front of his grave all day. In the evening, Old Tie came and brought some wine. He didn’t talk to anyone and drank until midnight.
Lao Tie was drunk, so I sent him to the door of my house. The old lady stood at the door and looked at me. In front of Lao Tie, she said: 'As long as your mother and I are still alive, he will not even think about entering Tie's house!'
I didn't say anything at the time, threw Lao Tie to the ground, turned around and left. Lao Tie suddenly howled behind me.
At that time, I felt that life was boring, so I started to mess around. Beating people was my greatest pleasure, and I felt that trampling people under my feet was the happiest thing in the world.
My mother said that I have nine lives. When I was a child, I lost three and still had six. I just thought my mother was coaxing me to play with them. Now I believe it.
There were six of us fighting Erlin on the railway, and we beat more than thirty of them. Erlin lost one of his legs to me, and a military thorn passed through me and came out.
When he was taken to the hospital, the doctor told him that he was choking and had injured his internal organs before resuscitating him. A month later, he was bouncing around again.
On the day I was discharged from the hospital, Lao Tie and his apprentice picked me up. I refused to leave and said that you didn't need to worry about it. I had a buddy to pick me up.
In fact, those buddies are also apprentices in our heavy machinery industry. After I shouted, they looked at me from the corridor and smiled.
I was also speechless. Lao Tie was really good at heavy machinery. There was nothing he could do to solve the problem. I was so angry that I pulled him out of the hospital.
As soon as they left the gate, more than ten people wearing masks and carrying machetes rushed over. No need to guess, Erlin's brother came to avenge his brother.
That time I realized that Lao Tie is also good at fighting. No wonder Dazhuang and I, and by the way, Tielin, we all love fighting, and you are the only one who is civilized."
Speaking of this, Tie Biao patted Tie Jun. Tie Jun was a little puzzled. Is fighting considered a fine tradition of the Tie family?
"In that battle, I cut him open and fell into a deep coma. I turned around and went to the hospital again. After eight hours of resuscitation, my brother miraculously came back to life."
Tie Biao lowered his head and pointed to Tie Jun a penetrating scar on his head. Tie Jun was horrified, knowing that each scar contained a thrilling battle.
"Another time, we had a fight with Xiangfang Laomao, and a spray gun hit the back of my head. If you knock it, this piece is a steel plate."
Tie Jun didn't knock, I really felt that it was definitely a miracle that Tie Biao could stand in front of him.
"At least three times, I walked around the Gate of Hell and lost three more of my nine lives.
After I broke out, it was strange. There was nothing thrilling anymore, and more and more people followed me.
When I was 22 years old, I officially left the heavy machinery industry and opened a repair shop. In less than two years, there were four repair shops.
Later, you also know, electronic shopping malls, motorcycle shops, restaurants, dance halls.
Dajun, do you know why I’m telling you this?”
Tie Biao raised his head and looked at Tie Jun, who shook his head.
"I just want to tell you that no matter whether you recognize me as your big brother or not, in my heart, you will always be my relatives.
Originally, I thought this would be it for the rest of my life, and I could secretly care about you, but you suddenly changed your gender, forcing me to keep an eye on you!"
"Look at me? Why?"
"For the Tie family! You are the eldest son of the Tie family. The eldest son is like his father. Tie is getting older and his younger brothers and sisters have grown up. You should also worry about it."
"I......"
"Well, I saw it, so I want to help you. The things you have done recently make me very happy. You have changed and become more responsible."
Tie Jun's eyes were moist. For the Tie family, this eldest brother who was not recognized by the Tie family had been working silently, but he...
"Brother, come home with me!"
Tie Jun finally called out "Brother", Tie Biao was stunned, and then he hugged Tie Jun, and the two grown men hugged each other and started crying.
